There are many facets to this thing we call life. Thats correct. Just like there are geniuses with zero social skills. To balance yourself out is a wise course. Raised consciousness through spirituality should be done in tandem as it will help you to see all these things. But that's why you can't just follow or trust one particular guru. Just because they may have had one particular facet of the Absolute revealed..or two..they may be limited in other areas. And one can grow more conscious simply by being. Which is great too.

@Vercingetorix @Vercingetorix all there is is an infinite mind dreaming or imagining up things. No body..not really. Thats all imagination. That's reality. Thats what you are. But to know yourself you need to be yourself through imagining it so. So you limited Yourself to this current form as an idea within your mind and and as this idea you have your own individual imagination - a slither of infinite imagination - so your memories have a chronological order, yes. And you as a concept will ultimately wash away and you'll go back to being the entire mind. you'll imagine up new stuff and new ideas and be them too

@zeroISinfinity i love you Zero. Any new awakenings?

@Leo Gura That was classic! LOL

@possibilities you intuited the collapse of duality into non-duality. Or form info formlessness. Or you as a possiblity into pure potential/Being.

@Preetom does Adyashanti really talk about the ego being enlightened? I read one of his books but i didn't remember noticing that and it was a while ago.

@possibilities yes..guess what you are talking about? Do you know?

@Joseph Maynor Bring it on! Of course he is just lecturing to his imagination

@Preetom well shame on him then. He does say to point out his mistakes. He's open to improvement. That's the sign of true wisdom.

@Zec How old are you and how much life experience have you had?

@Preetom You are conflating pure/infinite consciousness with finite consciousness. Remember when an ego is reborn it has more consciousness than before. It died. God revealed itself to itself. The ego is reborn and that consciousness is passed to the ego. The ego is still God, it's all one. But now as the ego you transcend that and become both..that's that non-dual awareness. But it takes multiple awakenings - the biggest and final being total solipsism. It's tricky.

@Preetom no he is saying that its not like one day you aren't eniightened and the next day you are. In binary terms non enlightened is the 0 and enlightenment is the 1. It's not like that. Or cat vs dog where cat is the 0 and dog is the 1. There are degrees of cats and dogs. It's the cumulation of consciousness expansion. People think that there is this concept of "boom actual enlightenment" it's not like that.

@electroBeam The beauty of consciousness laid bare......it's more than both - its Infinite.

@Joseph Maynor that is the damn truth.

@Leo Gura really looking forward to your political lectures. I am really looking for a way to evolve both. Being completely anti-capitalism is not the path. (Not suggesting you are) But There is a unification.

@Leo Gura and when i look at you I'm looking at myself in a multi parallel dimension so to speak. I'm literally being you RIGHT now.

@electroBeam Infinity is something else.

@electroBeam isn't that the beauty?

@electroBeam total omniscience means you are all being imagined in his mind. You don't have a perspective anymore. That doesn't exist from that perspective.

Modern physics i.e. quantum mechanics can reveal alot about God or reality because it was dreamed up by reality or God.

@zeroISinfinity and from your Godhead perspective you are talking to yourself right now. Playing in your own sandbox

Again..this can't be taught not really - you have to discover the Absolute for yourself. We are like Neo in the matrix going back into the Matrix and trying to tell you its a Matrix. You're gonna think we are crazy.

@Gili Trawangan ok i see. Yes the ego can delude itself. But when you actually become conscious of Oneness the ego will be dead and you will be awakening to yourself as God. God enlightening itself. That is Absolute and not relative. The rebirth of the ego is then able to see through it's own illusion, therein transcending itself as the ego.

Don't forget you still become conscious that you are Absolute love so there is no such thing as doing evil. Evil is an illusion of the unconscious there is only love. Self acceptance is accepting you are love. But its also accepting previous things that caused guilt/shame/depression. You love and accept yourself no matter what. It doesn't mean you are going to go murder someone. Thats the illusion that you can see through.
