Can you do this: Just step back, let the body moves, writes, walks, take actions. You do not judge, involve, ignore, assume. Just watch. Then see what happens. -
James123 replied to Breakingthewall's topic in Spirituality, Consciousness, Awakening, Mysticism, Meditation, God
How do you write, with thinking or without? Or how do you behave? Or how do you do called see, with thinking or without thinking? -
James123 replied to Breakingthewall's topic in Spirituality, Consciousness, Awakening, Mysticism, Meditation, God
İf you just look the Now, without any thinking, belief, expectations, experience, judgment, naming and labeling etc... Just directly look, what is there or that? -
James123 replied to Breakingthewall's topic in Spirituality, Consciousness, Awakening, Mysticism, Meditation, God
Just Be. God, creation, and questioning are invention. Moreover, the one saying that? Also invention. Being (actually nameless or can not be spoken) is before all stories. Before religion, before thought, before “why.” -

Body is appears to be real, however it is not ultimately real. İt exist only temporarily, conditionally, as appearances. The body comes and goes, the mind comes and goes. Even the sense of "me" comes and goes. But Your never. -

Yes. You are the One, who is aware of the body but not the body. So body can die, but not You, because You never born. -

İllisuory self is actually thought based identity, it is not real. It is a mental construction, a temporary appearance, like a dream character. -

What if, if one never borns or one is directly conscious that entire duality, birth, death ,universe or existence is just a process of thoughts, what is god then? -

😊 If that you is never there ? Maybe, you is just an accumulation of memories, ideas, beliefs, experiences, realizations, knowledge etc...? -
After Enlightenment, the mind may does not vanish entirely, but it loses its authority. Thoughts may still appear, but they no longer veil the One. They are like ripples on the surface of a deep, still lake. The One is not concerned whether thoughts come or go for he / she no longer identifies with them. Because there is no longer a “someone” caught in the flow. Moreover, Enlightenment does not end pain. Pain still comes, but it doesn't belong to anyone. One does not become a Superman or infinite or god consciousness 😊 The mind becomes like a burnt rope. It may appear to have form, but it has no strength. There is no inner chatter about the future, the past, success, failure, others, or oneself etc. Only silence remains as the ground of being. But, a silence not created, not practiced, However, revealed as the natural ground of being. All doing happens spontaneously, without the burden of the doer. From that stillness, action may arise, but it happens without weight, without effort, without the burden of a doer. All movement becomes spontaneous, unclaimed, unowned, as natural as wind passing through an open field. One sees now that the past, present, and future are not truly separate entities. They do not exist as fixed, real segments of time. Moreover, They only seem to exist when thought brings them up. When One thinks of five years ago, that image appears in the mind and it feels real, but only now, in this moment of thinking. Then, The moment attention shifts say, to a memory from three years ago, the previous image vanishes. It has no independent existence. Only the current thought holds space. For example, if I think of five years ago, it appears real now. But if I shift and think of three years ago, then five years ago disappears. It’s not there anymore, only what I’m thinking now seems to real. Such as think about Brazil now, see it is real now. When the thought ceases, Brazil is gone. So One sees: time itself is born of thought. Without thought, there is no time. No past to remember, no future to anticipate, only the unbroken Now remains. So actually, time is just happening in the mind. Without thinking, there is no past or future. There’s just now, still. And because, One is no longer investing energy in the stream of thinking, no longer clinging to it for identity or security, the sense of me, the doer, the thinker, the rememberer, is also seen to be false. It was never a real being, only a collage of impressions, a collection of thoughts referring to themselves. Once this is clearly seen, what remains is not a new version of self, but the falling away of all self images. So, After enlightenment, there is no "you", no idea of enlightenment nor "enlightenment". Only That remains: pure Being, the Self, You, or simply, What Is. Not an achievement, but what is always here. Now. Freedom is not escape. Life goes on, but the sense of me or you is gone. Pain may arise, but there is no sufferer. Thoughts come and go, but there is no thinker. Only Now remains, silent, formless, free. One remains in the body, yet untouched by it. Abide as That. Best Regards,

I just see that past, present, and future aren’t really separate. They only seem to exist when I think about them. For example, if I think of five years ago, it appears real now. But if I shift and think of three years ago, then five years ago disappears. It’s not there anymore, only what I’m thinking now seems to exist. Such as think about Jamaica now, see it is exist now. So actually, time is just happening in the mind. Without thinking, there is no past or future. There’s just now, still. And because I don’t engage with thinking anymore, I also see that the “me” who would think, remember, meditate or anticipate doesn’t really exist. That “me” was just a collection of thoughts, memories, and ideas. Now, what remains is just presence. Therefore, I can't answer from memory or imagination. -

Thank you very much for the explanation my brother. Much love and respect to you. Best Regards, -

In Truth, there is no "me", no collection of ideas, beliefs, or experiences that form a separate self. We are the Truth. Truth does not see through the mind, which divides and labels such as this is Christian, this is Hindu, or this is Muslim. Truth sees no separation. It sees all as identical, one Being, one Essence. -
James123 replied to PurpleTree's topic in Spirituality, Consciousness, Awakening, Mysticism, Meditation, God
When one sees the essence instead of seeing beliefs, ethnic groups, identification etc... being all one is inevitable, which is the end of separation. Seeing others through ideas, beliefs, or labels is the root of division and conflict. -
James123 replied to PurpleTree's topic in Spirituality, Consciousness, Awakening, Mysticism, Meditation, God
But our essence is identical. -
Enlightenment Beyond God Consciousness and the Infinite: The Vanishing of the Becomer and Experiencer: Find out who become or experience the Infinite or God consciousness, and that one will vanish. The very idea of becoming or experiencing presumes that you are not already That. And this assumption is the root illusion. Truth is not found through becoming or experiencing. It is revealed only when becoming and experiencing ends. As long as there is effort, time, or movement toward something, the ego survives in subtle form. Enlightenment is not an experience. All experiences have a beginning and an end. They arise and pass away. But the Self, pure Being is changeless, formless, beyond all experience. Yes, many may touch the Infinite or god consciousness, in deep meditation, in psychedelics, in love, in moments of ego death, in ecstasy. These are glimpses, profound and transformative. But they return. The experiencer or becomer reemerges and comes back. Enlightenment is when you don’t come back. Not because you go somewhere else, but because the one who was experiencing and becoming, the one who would return, is no longer there. What remains is the Self. Effortless, whole. Not a state. Not an achievement. Just what is, when all illusion falls away. The notion of becoming or experiencing is rooted in ignorance. The Self is ever present, and realization is not about attaining something new, but about removing the false idea that you are separate from it. Becoming or experiencing implies separation and time, which are unreal. The Self is ever present, eternal, and formless, beyond all change. Experiences or becoming arise and pass; they belong to the mind, not to the Self. Realization is not the acquisition of experience or becoming, but the removal of ignorance, the false sense of being separate. Enlightenment is abiding as the Self, without a returner. The “one who experience and becomes” is the ego, which vanishes upon enlightenment. After enlightenment, there is no "you", no idea of enlightenment nor "enlightenment". Only That remains: pure Being, the Self, You, or simply, What Is.

Solipsism is a word that "the view or that the self is all that can be known to exist". Self is word that "a person's essential being that distinguishes them from others, especially considered as the object of introspection or reflexive action". Actually, self is accumulated of attachments or beliefs, which are birth, death, existence, universe, realization, gender, country, god, religion etc... These are accumulation of beliefs, which creates the self or person or personality. Therefore, Solipsism is a word that belief or experienced by the self. Therefore, attachment of self, therefore, become one with self, and so called creates the new self. As an example, before solipsism realization "I am god" after solipsism realization, "I am god and god is all exist (therefore believing in solipsism is inevitable)". Or before god realization "I am a spiritual person" after god realization, "I am god". Or before infinite realization "I am god" after infinite realization, "I am god or infinite, or I am god and god is infinite". Or before nothing realization "I am a god" after nothing realization, "I am nothing, and god is nothing". These variables can be change. However, these are all based on beliefs. However, entire spiritual work is based on letting go or surrendering the self (any beliefs, any experiences or realizations, birth, death, belief, death, existence, universe, gender, country, god, religion etc...) Therefore, self is based on any beliefs and experiences (including solipsism realization, God realization, nothing realization, infinite realization etc...). Let go the self that has various of beliefs and lifting veil will be inevitable. Then directly conscious or be of What You really are.

Before birth, there was no you. No image, no name, no thought, no experience. There was not even the one who says, ‘I am.’ There was only the vast, unconditioned, the nameless, unmeasured, unknowable. That's what real God, Being is. And that is what You truly are. Therefore, God can not be realized, because it is already You. Therefore, God / You only Be. Not the accumulation of memory, not the story of experience, not the image shaped by society. You are not the movement of becoming, but the stillness before it began. The body was born, yes, but the Being behind the body was never born. It has no history. It cannot die, for it was never defined. But what is born, the body, the mind, the structure of thought accumulates. It collects pleasure and pain, memories and conclusions. It becomes the “me” the known, the describable, the limited. And death, whether of the body or the mind is the ending of this accumulation. A surrendering of everything you’ve ever gathered, ever identified with. "To die before you die" is the greatest freedom. Then you live without fear. Without holding. Without grasping. Enjoy this life, not as a clinging. But as an unfolding moment. The sky, the laughter, the sorrow, the light touching a leaf, see it all, without the burden of becoming. For it is the first and the last moment, always. And when death comes, as it will, you return to that Being, God or unnamable, which is untouched by name or memory. So live now, not as one who owns life, but as one who is free from it. There, in that freedom, is joy. Best Regards,

😊 Can you look without naming, reaching for a single idea, experience, realization or belief? Don't worry, I am not 😊 -
James123 replied to Sempiternity's topic in Spirituality, Consciousness, Awakening, Mysticism, Meditation, God
@Sempiternity @Razard86 what about; When there is no experiencer and no experienced, no observer and no observed, no seeker and no sought, what remains? -

I definitely agree. Before Enlightenment: Chop Wood, Carry Water (with clenched teeth, a heavy heart, as if each task were a burden, a chain of obligation or hate) After Enlightenment: Chop Wood, Carry Water (with open palms, a joyful breath, each movement alive with love, each moment a dance of Being)
