or the glass is half full? it's both and when something is a MUST, beyond all SHOULDs - then peace is what results. you cannot want to swim in the water and also not get wet. swimming in the water implies getting wet. it is a must heaven and hell are like water and wetness heads and tails you simply call the flip side of what you DO NOT want hell. but you come to see reality/consciousness is beyond what you (The Don) wants. it is also beyond all WHYs it just IS. WHY are there four seasons? what is the reason / purpose? there is no reason/purpose. it just what is... already is.

then Satchitananda liberation. the end of the need to answer this and all other questions

@fi1ghtclub it's commentray by someone on Ngdatta's quote/passages to expand and explain. I'm just the post-man, sharing the message @Angelite beautiful isn't it? @Eu Sint ?♥️?

epic

@Mikael89 yes... but can you get out of this cycle of death and birth? can you be an audience to the play instead of being the one in the play? then death, to you, will just be credits rolling on the current show and reincarnation will be the intro of the new show. you are only ever watching the shows

@Mikael89 same with death as long as you're ID'd with the body as you are when "you" go to sleep

@Mikael89 what happens when you go to sleep?

"We abide, not in the presence of awareness, but as the presence of awareness."

The attempt to see beyond your personal preferences becomes your newest one.

@Mikael89 amen +1

The human brain tries to use language to understand the world it creates with language.

there's only consciousness it is all. the mind, the ears, the eyes. there is no "how" which can be answered with words. and it is all unknowable. HOW are you seeing out of your eyes right now? did you learn to see out of the eyes? it just is that way. same answer to your question. it just is - beyond all HOWs If that's so then doesn't it mean every mind has a separate consciousness?? consciousness is one. just like one electric current runs thru various appliances in the house. each appliance is different in function, size, shape etc. but the life it gives is ONE consciousness/electric current.

@King Merk "mindsets/tips/exercises" don't help one to overcome the illusion. would there be any mindsets/tips/exercises which I could provide to you if you were afraid of a piece of rope when it was actually a snake? NO! the best way would be to pick up the rope and show you that it never was a snake. that would put an end to your fear same way when you are shown that there is no "others" just like you see that there was no "snake" the judgement would evaporate the same way the fear evaporates the loving and accepting individual is what remains once the truth is known. it is automatic. natural. just as one would not be fearful of a rope once seeing it's not a snake which can bite.

@King Merk judgement is made by someone who is outside of the context / separate from the other person being judged. anytime you judge, it means you have forgotten that you and others are playing parts in a film... it's like you're judging your co-stars for playing their part or saying their lines... anytime you become aware of the fact that you are judgeing, let it be a reminder that you're again pulled into the dream... only character A can judge character B the author never judges. the author knows A and B are playing the parts assigned to them. A and B can come to be aware of this fact whilst in the play and simply accept others for who they are. sure, guide others as you need. but otherwise, let them be.

what is "physical" if what you call "physical" was called "tissical" does that change anything? what you call "physical" is same as illusion. it is, what IT IS. in your dream, walking thru a door is also something you cannot do. is your dream physical? or mind-stuff ? is this current waking state any different than mind-stuff? is this even a waking-state? seems like a dream to me

"So the whole point about the message is pointing out what it's being directed at. The message isn't being directed at you, nor is it coming from me. The message is being directed at what we are, not who we think we are. As Huang Po, a great Zen master said: "Whatever can be perceived can not be perceiving." So the message about that which is perceiving isn't directed at the perceived, because the perceived isn't what's perceiving. You want the message to go to what is perceiving and it isn't the perceived."

the one that is looking is the one who is being looked for by the one who is being looked at and thus, the one searching can never find the one who is looking. therefore, no need to find yourself. you're already yourself. you just think you're the one who is searching when you're the one who is looking.

@Leo Gura lovely circle drawing analogy <3

@Nak Khid the predictability is pre-determinded point being. where do ya draw the lineeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

@The Don the clouds die. death is real for the cloud. the sky is beyond death... beyond coming and going. choice is yours... be the cloud, you die. be the sky, you gucci eternally bro!

You can't out think the thought stream, or wake up who you think you are. --------- What am I? I am .. my remembered past, my imagined future, and the felt sense of being little (or big!) me! Unless I claims this (life) as mine .. as my life and happening to me .. then there really is no knowing. No knowing what I am, what you are or what is happening. As this .. just this, there is no me and my life .. or you and yours. Just this .. amazing, beautiful, wild and free, incredible ordinary life. <3 ---------- The grip is the chaos. Allow the bad to play out with the touch of Gods awareness it will let go and transform to good.

@Natasha sorry can't untag (mobile)

We are NOT the seer, the hearer, the feeler, the toucher... We are the Seeing, the Hearing, the Feeling, the Touching.
