And you know this for certain?

I know what you meant. That is all relative as well - but yes there is difference in being conscious of Absolute Truth and embodiment of Truth to the fullest degree "possible" as a finite being. Yet be wary - even that is relative. Youre making a relative assumption that saving that person's life in the moment is the "right" thing to do when right and wrong are relative. As @EddieEddie1995 pointed out what if the mugger was angry with the victim for raping his daughter and you enter the situation blindly only with your own relative assumptions and kill the mugger whose daughter had just been raped by the victim? You see - what we are pointing you towards is a meta perspective, that's all.

Screw belief become Infinity!

@EddieEddie1995 great response That is so true - infinity often works in ways we as the finite are unable to see from our current vantage point.

As this human You're dreaming you are, you are finite. That is how you can be a self at all and "separate" from the world in which there exists "danger" that "you" would then calculate avoiding. Danger is only relative to a self. God or the Selfless has to create danger for it to even exist.

Well ironically if you were absolutely void of fear and were totally selfless you would be dead. Even the Buddha or Jesus, while they existed as the Buddha and Jesus were not 100 percent sefless until they ceased to exist.

I'm not saying I would not try to intervene if i felt i could make a difference with the individual- in the moment i hope that i would if the situation looked like there was a possibility..but If i told you i would have no fear whatsoever that would be a lie. My ego still has a strong survival need. When i am immersed in the dream it is very real just as is during a night time dream. Of course in a moment like that there is no time for fear - just adrenaline... My point was that at the same time recklessness is not going to be wise either.

@CBDinfused discovering its a dream metaphysically and that its one literally - actually gives you more compassion not less. But in some cases trying to show compassion to a devil is foolhardy. If someone has a gun to someone i don't think walking up to them and telling them its all Love is going to help.

You are experiencing "you" precisely so that you could experience "you"!!!! You as God are the Infinite dreamer. Don't get wrapped up in imagining you will be hitler - hitler is just content in this dream.

@Ray you're gonna wake up when it's time brother. And however you get there is how you get there. Its spontaneous -(and not) because the ego doesn't wake up - God does.

@Raphael welcome home. There is no difference between you and me. That is something you are imagining. And i am imagining that you are imagining me.

Yeah but you haven't broken out of the dream yet so this all still at the level of concept for you Once you have actually broken out of the dream you will realize it's a hundred times more enjoyable than before you knew it was a dream

Lol..he was a previously and once again banned user - dont waste your time

@soularlight I'm not sure where it started that enlightenment brings happiness and an end to suffering. Enlightenment is simply the realization that the you you believed you were is an illusion. When it is realized the illusion collapses leaving Being or Actuality. This is what is referred to as mystical because Being is prior to any type of conceptual realization which is still being made by the ego mind, wherein enlightenment is the collapse of the ego mind. Thats pretty much it. There is bliss with this realization because you are one with reality itself...the best way to put it is you ARE reality. This isn't some special state as people confuse it with the ego seeking something - it is actually the complete lack of ego. it just is what it is.

@Focus Shift the groundless ground.....the gateless gate

@SamC it may have been the start of something that was quickly squashed by the ego's defense mechanisms. You won't have to ask us anything when it actually happens.

@SM-OConnor yeah when what you thought was real your whole life is recontextualized into that of a dream - um, the shock of the realization and the shock of realizing its been just you the whole time - umm..there are no words for that. But it does get better. And the miracle of awakening is just something that can't be put into words either. Its beyond this world - literally

@SM-OConnor As you mentioned when your consciousness shifted to God levels of consciousness you felt pure Divine Bliss or we can also say Love - infinity which is identical - is your true nature. Yet since you were still in human form consciousness can drift between states and in those states - where you are almost in between but still directly conscious of oneness - that's when it is tough. But once you come all the way back to a normal state of consciousness - a dualistic state - it should get better and return to normal. Backlash should subside after some time. This is because - just as you do when you dream at night - you are placed in a state of consciousness to where the dream is real. Where there is a distinction between self and other. So in a normal state what your ego may be doing is twisting it into dread so that you run as far away from spirituality as possible. But notice it's only "bad" relative to the ego's bias, because if everything is one it will lose its identity. The ego also has a tendency to make it something "good" too and grab Godhood for itself haha. Anyways the main point is that as God you have infinite imagination, which means you have the ability to fall back asleep whenever you want - and when you do - the dream becomes real as you are no longer going meta or stepping outside the dream. This shift between duality and non-dual awareness is a craft that will take you some time to mold. But also you must try not to have a bias towards aloneness or oneness or at least go meta and notice that for what it is and be at peace with that Btw I'm doing it right now myself otherwise i wouldn't be able to have this conversation. I am immersed totally within the dream like a fish in water... I do it seamlessly. It is only if i go meta - which I just did right now - and shift my consciousness, that i will be conscious you are imaginary.

@bobbyward just do self inquiry..do the practices you mentioned include that?

Don't glorify Buddhism it's a trap. If you become Infinity there is no need to resort to a so called monk.

Love ya

That's an improvement. But you also created the Akashic records. Or didn't. You are bringing all of that into existence. Notice that.

Yeah but you are making him up right now. That is the true miracle.

That's the problem

@Flyboy the bottom line is you are not going to get to Truth through books. What we are communicating to you is transrational. If you wish to study transrational Ken Wilbur will be where to start but ultimately you will need to transcend rationality into mysticism.
