Inliytened1

something infinite can forget that it is infinite which would make it finite relative to that perspective. Relatively it is finite but Absolutely speaking it is still infinite.

Pure Infinity has no form.

Infinity. You are yourself. There is no where to go. When you become directly conscious of this that is enlightenment.

Remember in Leos "what is perception" video he discusses the ego co-opting consciousness. Well in this case there is no one co-opting consciousness it is just Consciousness dreaming.

Excellent. Then keep up the spiritual work Practice makes perfect. Now for me it took a week of meditation. But for you, since you have put in so much work - why don't you take 5-MeO and just demolish the ego. Do not fuck around if you want awakening at this stage. If you want to experience God.

@Patrick Lynam listen to Leo. But do the work and discover directly. These guys don't know shit about shit.

It is. I knew during enlightenment that it was the same thing and yet if that were the case everyone suffering from depersonalization would be awake. So clearly there is an element lacking.

there is no one to see an end - and yet its like you are still in there somewhere locked away trying to break through. Lkke sleep paralysis only with sleep paralysis there is still a you.

Kinda cool? Its horrifying - no fun at all.

Yes. It did in my case. I had experienced depersonalization before so i knew what it was. But can't really say it was after enlightenment - it was a combination of both depersonalization and God realization.

? if you ain't orange you don't wanna survive! Nothing wrong with a little orange! ?

@cetus i have not been too active on the forum of late @Carl-Richard perhaps you may have a rebuttle here?

@cetus hmm perhaps or perhaps thats the lens you are looking through. But ultimately you advance so high that you go full circle and realize there is no difference between any stage.

@Carl-Richard you just moved to a higher stage You realized there was no higher stage. You've transcended SD

@Koeke Maybe your ego likes dying. Mine didn't. Or maybe what you have experienced is yet still childsplay. The dissolving of the illusion of death is no small feat even for God - because he buries himself down so deep and then has to climb out. If you still fear death then you haven't died. You haven't died (capital Y) - not small you. Meaning You woke up to Yourself. The small self will always fear death. But it is a part of God consciousness that you take away that knows better.

For sure ?

Holy fuck dude you just gave me chills. I was driving when that very same thing happened.!!!!!! Its like Consciousness just opened up before you and your jaw drops.

This thread won't die haha. So think of it like this guys. You are infinite Mind or Infinite Awareness. You limited yourself to a finite level of consciousness in which Oneness has been fragmented. There is you over here - and someone else over there. There are, well other people....Awesome! All is well in the world. But..you literally can have an awakening or mystical experience in which your awareness or consciousness expands 1000 fold. At this level of consciousness - and this is the facet of awakening i call Oneness, i think Leo calls it aloneness - both are accurate - in which the duality of self/other collapses. Its both amazing and terrifying at the same time - because you become directly conscious that all form or content (which includes everthing "else"" is literally held within your mind - which ultimately is the Mind of God. So here you are shifting to God's perspective, so to speak. Like i said it is both shocking and blissful simultaneously because you realize this entire universe is yours. Its amazing frankly. And terrifying because you realize you are completely alone in the sense that everything and everyone else is literally a projection of your mind. There are no other beings you can talk to because you are the only show in town. I remember i left work and couldn't function for several days. So the fucked up part is you can't function as a human being at this level of God consciousness. Its like when you are in a video game in God mode - that defeats the whole purpose of the game. But don't worry you come back to the ego and everyone else comes back too.

@tuckerwphotography after you have a mystical experience or an awakening you will open up. Right now you are still closed off to Love.

There are similarities but depersonalization is a loss of a sense of self. Enlightenment is becoming directly conscious that you are not a self (ego death) but that instead you are (via being) the Self/Infinity/God/Love/Consciousness. The similarity comes in because awakening can have that feeling of no sense of self too, which can lead to nasty ego backlash on the return - but during awakening it is accompanied by immense bliss, unlike raw depersonalization.

@Arthur very nice report!

imagination is second order. Love with a capital L is first order. The container. It is identical to Being/Actuality/Infinity. Imagination is duality as it is comprised of distinctions or differences. Love is non-duality or the container of duality. Imagination spawns from Love - or form spawns from formlessness. And yet the second order is made of the first order - making it indistinguishable once you are conscious of both.

Maybe look in the mirror?

Figure of speech. I did too. Nasty habit And yeah typically when the ego seeks pleasure it leads to suffering haha.

I see where you are going. Imagining away the pain of getting your arm sliced off is equivalent to Imagining away the wall in front of you. It would take insane levels of consciousness. Infinite levels. It can be done - but not with ordinary human levels of consciousness. There is no one on this forum that is at that level because honestly i don't think there are any humans on that level or they wouldn't be human.
