@Sincerity @Princess Arabia I am both gonna catch you. And hug you.

I am actually very calm. Therefore, İt is your assumption. Do you cry, if you don't you really need to. I always sob.

for "you". İf Ramana Maharsi can not help you, no one can. Peace.

“There is no knower and nothing known. The Self alone is. The Self is not the seer or the seen — it is That by which both appear.” Ramana Maharsi.

No judging, nor fighting. We are One. nothing, but Allah. I love you my brother. Best Regards,

Where was it before your physical birth or in deep sleep? Where was / is there? If you trying to grasp the Truth via knowledge or experience, "you" are not gonna make it. Because, there is no you, nor experiencer or experienced there. @Breakingthewall @randydible let Peter Ralston and Ramana Maharsi talk, not me 😂

Does infinite include "finite"? Absolute meaning includes all, it is not finite versus infinite. The Absolute does not exclude anything. All raise and fails within. .

Nah. No one can tell what truth is, because any knowledge, experience, realization etc... belongs to mind. So, Truth can be only pointed out, but can not be spoken. you are hurt my brother. Don't worry everything is going to be fine.

Nah. Still finite is opposite.

No, Truth is that where all the ideas raise and fall. This is what pointing out is.

There is no idea there.

Nah, no ottority. Just pointing out what the Truth is. There is no james there.

Great work my brother. The Absolute is already the Absolute. It does not begin, it does not end. Beginning and ending are ideas inside time, but the Absolute is not inside time. “Infinity” still belongs to the language of time, of continuation, stretching endlessly forward and backward. But the Absolute is not a line that stretches; it is beyond duration. Therefore, Infinity still belongs to the realm of thought, because infinity implies a contrast with “finite.” The Absolute has no opposite. Therefore, the Absolute does not need infinity. Infinity is only a shadow of the mind trying to imagine the limitless. The Absolute is that which includes all infinites, all experiences, all rises and falls, all beginnings and endings. It is the ground in which both “finite” and “infinite” appear and disappear.

Truth never changes. What changes is the ego. Truth is not wearing an another mask, it is dropping all. Never arguing my brother.

So forget them. Because, "you" are the biggest enemy. When "you" vanishes, Truth shines, which is what You Truly are.

Exactly. What if that "you" is already a trap? And if become conscious what You really are, that can "you" be hurt? Moreover, love without any expectations is the best advice ever.

İf someone gives you hug, or flower or just say to you, I love you, without any expectations. İs there any authority there?

God, or the Being, is still and ever present, untouched by thought, experience , realization or attachment. The mind alone appears to move, clinging to thoughts, feelings, realizations and experiences. This clinging creates the sense of “I” or ego. The mind is the only veil hiding the Being. Turning attention inward to the source of the "I" - thought shows that all experiences, attachments, realizations and movements of mind arise and vanish in the Being, which remains unmoved, ever present and absolute. The key practice is turning attention inward to the source of the "I", rather than analyzing the mind externally. The sense of “I” or ego exists only as long as attention is identified with the mind. The mind is the only veil hiding the Being. When the veil is known and the veil / mind becomes powerless. There was never a separation. You are always unmoved, ever present and absolute.

I just do my best to help you in order to point out to ego, and Truth. İf I have any fault, forgive me and all of you. I love you all ❤️

Definitely. Consciousness is there, within deep sleep, before physical birth and death.

I just love you guys. That's all.

First ask, who is James? Second ask, who is the "I" that think about James? Third ask, who is "I"? Till "I" vanishes.

Read carefully, what is exactly "my" teaching there? Or there is no teaching there?

Exactly. But there is no "I" there. That's the core. It is actually Being what You really are. That's it. End reflection of Being is the Love. What can be better to say I love you to someone without any expectations? Without any talking just hugging to broken heart? Holding hands of orphan child? Because, it is You (not "you as self or ego). Yes. But many people don't know that enlightenment is not an achievement. It is death or end of that person. Moreover, (for your thread title) If anyone claims that they are enlightened, they are not. Because enlightenment is not something to possess or announce. Because, the Truth not separate from you. It is You. Beyond mind and ego, therefore it needs no declaration.

Hey Brother. You are definitely right from your perspective. However, I was suicidal and try to suicide couple times. Till I met with @Nahm Back and forth we had hundreds of conversations and with all his sayings, i mixed with all other teachings from different teacher and it made sense. Moreover, top of that I had so much suffering in my so called personal life. Then I totally surrender and died anyway 😂 😂 😂 which is more difficult then suicide, which is quick death. Surrendering is complete burning while breathing. 😂 😂 So now, Being, therefore love, sharing, caring, crying, hugging and bliss is inevitable. Enlightenment is the best service that one can do for humanity. Because, there is no i there, therefore no conflict, expectations, divisions etc... Just saying.
