Perhaps this is how this can actually be a trap for you...where as if you face this fear head on and overcome it you will no longer cling to it. When you rest in Being, you are stilling the mind. Stilling the mind is where you will find Truth. By this we mean formlessness or nothingness. Infinity. But paradoxically infinity is not just emptiness but it is everything. When you become conscious of Truth you will relinquish your identity and with it your fears. Ultimately, of course, you will come full circle because, you were in fact always Truth even in form. You will go back to thought - to gathering thoughts and organizing them in your mind. To reflecting. But it will be different now. You will have transcended your own identity. You will be free of its clutches. You can do these things but they won't enslave you. Through this spiritual growth you can then self actualize to a much deeper level and find much deeper satisfaction from your reflections and from life itself.

@Raptorsin7 that is just one, often the first, of many realizations. Understanding your true nature is understanding the fundamental nature of reality. This is liberating in itself, but it is just the beginning. The pinnacle, to me, of this work, is the realization of Oneness. This will bring a deep sense of peace in your life although at first it will be quite the shock. As you keep going deeper in this work, you will be walking down a path that brings more peace, love, and wisdom in your life. This wisdom will help you to begin the path of transcending all of the things that cause us to suffer. This doesn't mean suffering will just vanish - but the closer you are aligned with Truth the less you cling to your finite identity. The more you cling to your finite identity the more you will fear. The more you will suffer. The less peace you will have. Now ultimately you must come full circle and embrace your duality - your identity. But on the return path it is with much, much more consciousness and wisdom. You will embrace your identity without clinging to it. That is a fundamental difference.

You have to pretend, that's how. Trick yourself. (again). You are God - and this is your sandbox. So play. Non-dual awareness can exist in the backround.

@Mulky form i(lets say you for example) is finite - it is within formlessness or infinity. But at the same time the two are identical. Form = formlessness. Finity is Infinity. Infinity is consciousness. Formlessness is consciousness. Form is consclousness. It is all One. Consciousness is a shapeshifter and simultaneously has no shape. In its formless state it is pure Being. This is pure potential - everything and nothing simultaneously.

@Gili Trawangan it's so jaw droppingly powerful that words cannot do it justice and yet you managed to do it so beautifully Happy for ya.

When you experience enlightenment the you shall melt away into isness. You will become infinite. And in that very moment you will be the moment. You always were the moment. You just weren't conscious of it.

Indeed

@Nahm why's that?

@Scholar what @Consilience speaks of is Truth with a capital T. Language, logic, and rationalism cannot capture Truth because it is mystical. It defies rationalism and it transcends it. You need an awakening. You need to become it because everything else is prior to it. You ARE it. Everything else is finite.

@Consilience 1. What good would the illusion be if it was easy to see through. It wouldn't be much of an illusion. God is a master. Physical reality feels sooo real and juicy. It is very hard to detect it is a dream without a spiritual awakening and doing consciousness work. It is so counterintuitive. And for this to even happen you have to get past point 2 below. 2. Culture. Materialism is ingrained into our culture. It effectively is our culture. Most would never even doubt it unless they had an awakening. 3. Radical open mindedness - enough said there. This is why so few are enlightened to Truth.

@Ibn Sina I'm one.

@Matt8800 unless you are referring to the process itself. But still. God does not reveal itself lightly. What goes into awakening is extremely nuanced behind the scenes although you can stumble on it blindly there are a lot of factors that play into one awakening to their true nature.

@Matt8800 Matt - enlightenment is no big deal? Really? I know you know better than that

Thanks. I have switched off my bullshitting channeling functionality ??

Totally nailed it as usual ?❤

We (the "public") are all projections of your owm mind from one perspective so i wouldn't stress out too much.

Im awake if i minded anything that would be ego

But its ok to use mine? Sorry i guess i publicized mine back in the day. Sorry man.

Yeah i hear ya. I'm not sure if he is stating that, i think he is just pointing out the ease of which you can confuse the ego's imagination with infinite imagination. But then again does it matter if you are God? Maybe that's the point we are all making here....

OK will do ❤

I stated earlier that it is One so this is relative. ALL form is relative or partial truths. It is a paradox in itself because you can have multiple things being true relative to the subject, simultaneously. And none are incorrect or fully correct. The realm of form is an Absolute relativity and a mindfuck

To me it's all imagination. Just different layers or levels. So i think he is referring to God's imagination, which is boundless, and can manifest anything at will instantaneously. This could include spirits and the paranomal. Then there is limited imagination - or the finite version of God - the ego. The ego has a limited form of imagination but cannot will things into Being or create spirits other than within its own mind - it can't manifest them so that they are available within the Infinite Mind for all finite Minds to see. That's the point of being limited. So Real = God's imagination vs unreal = ego's imagination. But you see its all imagination and the egos Mind or finite Mind lives within the Infinite Mind. So to be "deluded" is to confuse God's imagination with your limited one.

@Serotoninluv ?❤

Nothing = everything = infinity.

@cetus56 nothing + everything = Infinity.
