@Shin ? Indeed This is the seed which you plant. Unconditional goodness Goodness for the sake of goodness itself Love for the sake of love itself. That's all you gotta do. "My Lord loves the One whose heart is filled with unconditional Love" Reality will bless you in unimaginable ways when you vibe positive and love all without expecting a return. Knowing that good will come is enough. Just know you're loved and will be cared for and provided for and keep on marching forward

@VeganAwake @Unjigorjigor bless

They say God loves you 70x more than your own mother. Yet everything is God's infinite love at play. At all the times. So relatively while a mother's love maybe conditional/egoic to a degree... There are moments of sacrifice wherein that is total embodiment of God's infinite love. A mother giving up her life to protect her children. Many videos about animals doing this and real life examples of mother saving children by giving up their own life. This is none other than God's infinite love shining forth in the relative way of looking at the world. Another example is that of forgiveness... But again, relatively speaking, not an ordinary forgiveness... But that of a father/mother forgiving the killer of their child. That is none other than God himself at play... Imagine the impact of the killer after such an event... God love is every present. But in moments like this it shines forth like a million suns.

Hello please

Impermanence means everything is change, not things change. Things ARE change. You ARE change. You are a verb, but we function as nouns. The open question is a mind that does not fixate on form, which is death, because all things are dying. Remember, things don't change in time: things are change. Things are time. You are time. Time cannot die. The realization that you are Time, change, is Zen.

@Consilience now is the unchanging upon which the changing takes place. NOW is not like a video which is paused. NOW is a video playing and NOW is the current time, undivided but cannot be captured. The moment it is captured, it's not the NOW. Once again. This is a map at best, you know from your recent experience that the real is beyond all these words/concepts. Trying to make sense of it in thinking you will once again GET IT is futile... You'll only get the analogy... Only the description of the taste but not the taste itself. Let go of trying to get this and let go of the one who will then try to let go.

@Consilience you are the KNOWING. Not a knower (noun) but the knowing (verb) You're not a noun. You are a verb. VERB!

@Raptorsin7 "why it doesn't last?" Because it never begins... If it "starts" it will surely stop and end and thus not last. It is not yet understood by the fish what water is... Is the fish ever not in the water? It is like the fish asking why does the water come & go? If it asks this, it is not yet aware that water is ever-present. The Water / The Self becomes Revealed.

Watch at 14 minutes mark. The machine knows right when the subject is about to make the choice... Reads the subconscious mind. Where's the free will at?

@actualizing25 as long as you understand that post-awakening, you still gotta pay the rent and the bills, then you good.

@Forrest Adkins why would God let himself enjoy food and sports?

Beautiful.

Totally completely absolutely undeniably irreversibly unpreventably unavoidably inevitable. This, this and this. Also, that, that and that. All, inevitable.

Where do you as a seeker look? There is no path, there is no door, you are already that which you seek, but you don't recognise it for what it is, because it is otherworldly, formless, timeless, transparent and non-physical in nature. You identify only with what you see, that which is physical, but not the greater being that is behind it. Being blind to this truth, you say "I don't believe in a higher power" but if you are alive, you are, in essence, that power. You can awaken to this truth at any time. It is not a journey, but just a simple change in perception. It is not for the chosen few, or just those who deserve it. Neither is it only for those who have read great books or participated in certain rituals, or for the limited resources of the mind to understand it. As your true nature is unchanging all you need to do is look beyond everything that is non-permanent, everything that is physical. You are, as you have always been.

@Nivsch the hand is always part of the whole body. If you thought you were the hand, you would only have control over the hand and operate as such. Until you realized that you were the whole body, then you would only operate as the whole body. You can no longer only be a hand when you know yourself to be the whole body. But it must be known. Not believed. The hand can pretend to be the body but it can never actually be it

there’s always a lot of iron in the craters, maybe magnetic, lol.

Started from the bottom now we here

I suppose it can be called a "level of understanding" in a way... In another way, the percentage of wholeness experienced... (0-100 %) ... ¿?

@Beginner Mind it's unknowable. It's a mystery. Always was, is, and will be. Simply is. Also. Think of ur question. Ur asking for a "how" for God... Let's say I give you the answer, that God exists because of X. Then the question becomes, how does X exist to have caused God to come into being... And so on. There is no how. It just is. Causeless. And you can't ask for a cause for something which is causeless because DUH!!! cause-less
