  1. 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.
  2. 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,
  3. 😊 Can you look without naming, reaching for a single idea, experience, realization or belief? Don't worry, I am not 😊
  4. @Sempiternity @Razard86 what about; When there is no experiencer and no experienced, no observer and no observed, no seeker and no sought, what remains?
  5. It sucks that you see that in the mirror. Meanwhile , You are pure beauty. What is the bullshit?
  6. It is so easy. If you don't like, dont read it 😊 My brother, Answer below, if you want use your chat gpt: 😊 I love to talk to you ❤️
  7. 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)
  8. When you say, “Even the smile belongs to no one,” it is true. But why say it? Who is saying it? 😊 The moment you say, “The Self cannot be spoken of,” I say to you: Then why speak? Why defend silence with more words? 😊 Come, my friend. Step out of the whole drama, not just the ego’s drama, but even the anti-ego drama. Even this beautiful dance of “there is no you,” “there is no seeker,” “even this is empty”. Let it go too. Truth is not reached by subtraction any more than by addition. It is not reached at all. It is lived, breathed, drunk like wine, made love to like a lover with no name. You have stripped away the veils. Now strip away the stripping. And then, just dance. 😊 Moreover, the entire thread was just to help people, because I love you guys. Love isn’t a moral duty and not some spiritual achievement. It’s the natural fragrance of Being. I am here not to correct the illusion, but to dance within it. When someone cries, I don’t say, “There is no self.” I hold them. And in that holding, something deeper is remembered. When someone is hungry, I don’t say, “There is no body.”I feed them. What else could Being do, but love? Not as a doing. Not as a plan. But as a spontaneous expression, like a tree offering shade, like laughter rising when there’s nothing left to protect. And so I walk. Barefoot. Smiling. Nowhere to go. Nothing to become. Only This. Touching all things with hands that belong to no one. 😊
  9. Who cares? The one who cares, find out who that is. Who is asking whether it is embodied or repeated? Who is measuring? Who is doubting? Not with the lips. But with attention. With sincerity. With stillness. Then all such questions, about embodiment, repetition, meaning, lose their grip. What remains is pure Being. The idea that you were consciously doing things before you were born as “you” is a projection of the mind, arising from its need to construct continuity and identity. Before birth, there is no individual mind, no personal “you” to act or be conscious in that way. The mind creates a false identity by confusing itself with consciousness. It says, “I am this body, these thoughts, this memory,” but these are only temporary forms, changing, limited, and dependent on time. The mind clings to them because it fears loss, death, and the unknown. By identifying with the mind and its contents, you become caught in a story of “me” and “mine,” which is not your true nature. This false identity is a shelter for the ego, but it is also a prison. True consciousness, the Self or Being is beyond the mind, beyond time, beyond identity. It simply Is, timeless and formless. The mind invents stories like “I existed before birth” or “I wiped my mind” to maintain this false sense of continuity and control. You say there is no past, no future, no becoming, and that is true. But you still speak as if this “truth” is something to be stated, grasped, or understood. Look closely, all these ideas arise in the mind. The mind clings to them, twists them, tries to hold the formless in words and concepts. When you say, “There is no death. There is no you,” what is this “there or you” where you place such statements? 😊 Is it not still the mind’s attempt to define what cannot be defined? 😊 Moreover, Who is it that says, 'There is no you'? Who is the one that knows there is no past or future? These questions are the doorway to the Self. 😊 Your insight that the Self is not behind anything, not moving, not becoming, is true. The Self is ever-present, untouched by birth or death, by time or change. However ,when you say ‘there is no you,’ who is this ‘you’ that you negate? It is the ego, the 'I' that imagines itself separate and limited. That ‘I’ is indeed illusory, a thought arising in consciousness. 😊 This is stage 3 'First Glimpse of the Ox.' Details are below. https://blog.buddhagroove.com/zen-ox-herding-an-overview-of-the-10-stages-of-enlightenment/
  10. There was nothing or being or god. Actually it has no name. But it is You. Therefore, God can not be realized, only Be.
  11. Where was it before your physical birth?
  12. How on "realize" the god, meanwhile God is all there is? Even word of realize is God, therefore, realization is self action. Therefore, God can not be realized. Only Be.
  13. İt is just inside and outside is silent. And in that silence, bliss and effortlessness arises. Being is Absolute. Even realization of being unlimited nature is Being itself. Because, it is absolute.
  14. Hi my brother. Welcome. Maybe the post below might be helpful.
  15. You are right. The idea that an awakened mind is always silent is a false image, an ideal born of thought. However, The observer and the observed are not separate, they are the same movement. And when one recognize this, deeply, not intellectually, the division ends. In that ending, the mind is still and silent. And in that silence, Truth, which is nameless, timeless, comes. One does not seek it. It comes when the mind is utterly quiet. Then, the absolute speaks not as words, but in the language of silence. The Moment. Naturally, Effortlessly.
  16. Love you my brother. Thank you my brother.
  17. Experience implies a duality, the experiencer and the experienced. All is One, not two. My brother, The one who believes in God, that is You. The one who denies God, that is also You. The saint chanting in the temple, and the skeptic laughing at the sky, both are You in disguise. The fool is not outside of You, he is a reflection. He is a mask worn by the same eternal Presence that you call “I Am.” So do not separate. Do not say, “I am right, they are wrong.” That is the beginning of violence. See clearly: All forms, all faces, all voices even the confused, even the lost are waves in the same Ocean of Being. A fool says, “There is no God.”But the breath that speaks the denial is God. The tongue that moves is God. Even the ignorance is made of God. So I say: Celebrate the fool, Because in his denial, the seed of awakening is hidden. And when that seed cracks open, the fragrance will be divine. God rejects nothing. God embraces all. Even those who say “There is no God.” So don’t judge. Just, laugh, love, include. Because the moment you exclude the fool, you have missed the infinite intelligence of the Whole/ Pure Being/God/Absolute. God is big enough to play every part, even the one who says, “There is no God.” Because in Truth, You are them too. And when You realize that, there is no more other. Only Being remains, And from that Being, naturally arises its reflection: Love.
  18. No man, I am just asking a question. If someone convince you to kill yourself and I threw a punch to person who convince you, will it be hissy fit? Or because of loving you?
  19. If someone claims that they are enlightened, smile and leave there 😊
  20. Therefore, communication of Truth is impossible, words can only point to😊 What about this? 😊 "For example, solipsism is different word then Self. So, if everything is Self, how can be two different words? 😊 " I know you don't like me, but I love you. We are One.
  21. What is the solipsism if there is Just Self? 😊 For example, solipsism is different word then Self. So, if everything is Self, how can be two different words? 😊
  22. When you say, “Solipsism is the realization that Self is all that exists,” you are still playing the game of the mind. Still trying to explain the ocean in a teacup. But if Self is all and if Self is truly all, Then what is there to realize? Who is left to realize it? There is no explanation. Only this, Self, Self, Self, Self, Self. Like a heartbeat of the cosmos. Because, “Solipsism is the realization that Self is all that exists,” already creates a division, because words or sounds are different. If the Self is all exist, the sentence should be "Self, Self, Self, Self, Self". Not an idea. Not a philosophy. Not a clever conclusion. Just is-ness, suchness. No boundaries, no observer, no observed. Just Self. So don’t give it a name, don’t give it a theory. Just fall into it. Dissolve. And then there is no you. Only That.
