@ChrisZoZo come into the present moment awareness by focuing on ur breath... consious breathing

@IndigoGeminiWolf enlightenment is the case even right now... you're just not aware of it. you becoming enlightened is just you becoming aware of the fact that you were already enlightened this can be likened to the example of someone searching for their glasses which are already on their face... when he recognizes they were already on his face, that's enlightenment. a knowing. a recognition. so it is already the case... just waiting for you to spot it... recognize it... and you will only find it when you stop looking for it... get this. normally, if something is lost and we stop searching for it... we do not find that thing. we have simply stopped the search or taken a break. but with enlightenment, the stopping for the search for it is what let's you discover it! how can this be? maybe because it was never lost to begin with! just like those glasses on the face - simply being overlooked. and the search because there is the belief that something is lost. oh and of course you cannot stop searching for it... you're not the one searching, so how can you stop searching?

@IndigoGeminiWolf that's the beauty of actually being a no-self... you never become it. you're already it. already nothing. so how are you creating now? that's exactly how you create in "no-self"

love it @AleksM

The painter is the painted and the painting and neither of these.

@SQAAD this ^ From the teachings, you know you are already free and need not do anything or even surrender. Just drop the identification with the one who is wanting to surrender... And then drop that identification also. Personal needs need not be surrendered. The character cannot see it is imaginary. IT IS IMAGINARY! The character will always have needs. YOU however need to drop all attachment to those needs

@Ibn Sina good and evil is just like winning and losing. Try inventing a game where 2 teams play but nobody loses... Exactly. Life is like a game. There has to be good and bad. Win and lose It is always relative. As it must be. Only from the POV of outside of the game can we appriciate and say it's all just a game. Or like a parent tells their child after watching a sad cartoon or movie... That it's just a movie! That's the POV Leo is talking about. It's all just LOVE. And that's what LOVE looks like Love is only a word. And leo made a clear distinction between 1st and 2nd order love. Ur confusing that as well. Greater good / LOVE is also you brushing ur teeth and killing millions of germs and keeping the 1 whole mouth healthy.

What's the spirituality answer to Chicken and egg? That there isn't? No cause/effect?

@IndigoGeminiWolf you don't necessarily need to drop your passion... Following your passion is very much in line with truth! Rupert Spira describes a moment such as this for himself with having to consider dropping his love of ceramic art and then discovering following it was not other than truth! Living it!

To all of the above... Thanks ♥️??

There is only CD-RW. It needs to be totally empty for it to store and view any content and movie. There are infinite number of movie which can be stored and watched. Only the CD is. Movies come and go. The CD is Real/Permanent. There maybe a movie about characters in a movie being guided to realize their true nature. The empty blue aware DVD logo on the screen and the movies played on that screen. Apparently Two Yet Truly One.

@Alex bliss proof cannot be found via words, stories, pictures, examples. All proof given to you will be of those forms. The proof you need has to be direct and self confirming. Like knowing you were dreaming is only possible after you wake up from it... No "proof" can be given to you while you are dreaming. You must get the proof directly for yourself

@Leo Gura can you do a YouTube live during post 2 and answer live comments/questions?

@AlphaAbundance know that the Truth is = Allah You need not drop your understanding of Allah to get the Truth It is just another name for Allah

@AlphaAbundance good work ♥️ What's your religion?

No exp with lsd and other pscys But no they are supposed to be much much higher degree than edible/regular weed It's not to say that you cannot have a breakthrough with weed/edible weed But it's like if someone wanted a sports performance car you would tell em to get a lambo/Ferrari and not a honda civic

@SQAAD here's how and where you will NOT find the answer Books Videos Forums Songs Concepts Poetry All of these are directions which will point you to the goal and thus not the goal itself. The goal must be known and arrived at directly. Just like you cannot read the gps directions to your destination and then say i have arrived, same thing here. It's not enough to know. You must get there. And ONLY by getting there can you know what that power is. When you hear that YOU are that power, it can be confusing. It is because a fish in water can never find water if it is searching for it. The true you has never left the destination to which you're wanting to go. And the one who is wanting to get there can never get there. You must simply discover that you're that one who has always been in your true place. Eternally so. For that do the practices, yoga/meditation, psychedelics if you think you're ready for that. But you will not find that answers by reading or talking about it.

@SQAAD this is like a character in a book asking "who thinks my thoughts" Keep in mind What you type/write/say is also being thought by the same thing which thinks your thoughts Who brought about the curiosity which led you to ask "who thinks my thought" even that curiosity was thought up Your confusion and clarity are also not yours They are architected by that same power What you call that power is just a name. You can call it God/Allah/Tao/Awareness Can you see that the answer to your question is just a sound in your mind? For example if instead of God being the one thinking your thoughts it was said @SQAAD, you wanna know who thinks your thoughts? Teetu thinks your thoughts. So now what? You have the answer. Teetu is thinking your thoughts. And you're still where you were + this added sound of "teetu" added to your mind. Same goes for God/Allah or any other names we use. "Teetu" is a random sound to which you associate no concept to. But it illustrates that the answer you're seeking to your question is with words/sounds... It will not serve anything of value... Like reading a book about what an apple tastes like vs eating the apple and finding out You must come to see that power which controls your thoughts and then discover there is no person whose thoughts are being controlled. Taste and solve this paradox.

When I try to comprehend The Real with my feeble mind, I eventually come to this: Naught is but The Pure and Perfect Resonance of The One Erternal Indivisible Presence! Creation comes to be as wave patterns on The Sea. We cannot be The Sea while pushed up as waves. And when we as waves subside, there remains only Sea. The Sea is eternal. We are temporal. But the temporal moment is for us eternal. The wave perceives all time as being within the wave. Our lives are an eternity within The Eternity. It is The Sea alone that ‘waves’. We do not ‘wave’ ourselves. Our form and motion are determined alone by The Sea. Waves do not have the slightest independence from The Sea. The sensation we have that ‘we’ are ‘waving’ is how we are being ‘waved’ by The Sea. Thus we are each constantly and perfectly surrendered to The Sea. Even our claim of independence is an aspect of our surrender. Realizing: we will enjoy the motion of The Sea. Ignorant: we, as waves, will storm. Naught is but The Pure and Perfect Resonance of The One Erternal Presence!

Perhaps.... The Existent is constantly calculating Its own motion. That motion is the reality I experience. The calculation is so infinitely complex that I, as subset of The Existent, am not capable of making it. So, my future is absolutely incalculable to me. Although the movements of my life are perfectly and solely determined by The Existent, they are each completely hidden from me until they arise. The result of my ignorance is that ‘I’ seem to be the cause of my movements. I am in a drama, playing a role that I ‘seem’ to write. But of course, ‘I’ and ‘my’ drama are really being authored by what is well beyond my comprehension. Whether or not I am aware that my role is not my own to write, I cannot escape the drama. But if I am aware that I am authored, the drama is more bearable in its storms, and more enjoyable in its calm. If I am not, every moment of the drama is spoiled by the anxiety inherent in my imaginal authorship. Islam is the peace of realizing one is completely authored by The Existent. But that realization is not dependent of being Muslim. It is probably the case that believing in any ‘Truth’ is an obstacle to the realization. The best I can ‘do’ is relax and embrace the drama and its Author. The best I can ‘do’ is receive myself as the gift The Existent is giving me. Alhamdulillah

@Muhammad yes But you aren't the Muhammad zooming in and nor are you the Muhammad Being zoomed into You are the one aware of it all Like a kid who is playing with his right hand and left hand. He calls right hand him and left hand the bad guy. He makes them fight. The kid is not just the right hand (even though he identifies himself with it) he is also the left hand As Leo said. You are everything! So right now... You're wrongly identified as being Muhammad... He is just one out of the Infinite hands/head of the ONE Infinte Being. And YOUR real identity is That.

@kerk thanks ♥️

@Knock you're getting the general gist of it... Leo is just pointing you directly to it Being or isness simply refers to the present moment minus your thoughts about it If Reality could be paused / stilled, that single frame of the present moment / NOW is what being or isness points to... Only that Reality Cannot be stilled or paused So it's always the current ever changing moment... Like a parabola with a single vertex point... It is 1 singluar point in which all of the manifest Reality exists... Objects/Experience moves into and appears on the Now And whatever is in the Now = being = isness Like watching TV Whatever is ON right now is what is being/ising

The eyes see all but themselves You're the absolute!

indeed
