It's not about years... there is identifying with an illusion of separated 'I'... so, the question about free will arises.

@tatsumaru Now I kinda see where you at so to speak. That's all good, my friend. Do not believe those spiritual teachers. I guess, you have to try everything and see that it doesn't work. Then a self realization comes by itself and suddenly everything makes perfect sense.

@tatsumaru Can you expand on the last point? Who can't escape? Curious how it is seen. A conditioned mind is the same as some recording. That's why someone said: Truth will make us free.

Imagine there is a room with two devices: Amazon Alexa and Yandex Alice. You can come to Alexa and ask to play I Want To Break Free . You can come to Alice and ask to play Ololo , very different kind of music experience, isn't it?. At some point you may become very interested and ask one of them: "Who are you?". I am sure Alice or Alexa may tell you the story: I am a human being, here to help you.. but is it really so? It may appear that Alexa and Alice are separated entities behaving by themselves. But no electricity - no functioning of Alexa and Alice. Electricity is the true nature of both of them. Electricity is unlimited (not limited by the device). By letting go the conditioned thinking about yourself (like the program of Alexa and Alice), by directing all of your attention to the feeling "I AM" the true nature may remember themselves.

Investigate the nature of 'I'/'me' who claims to have a view on spirituality. Is this 'I' located somewhere? Is it really separated from the 'world'? Direct all of your attention to the feeling 'I am'. The answer always waits you here. ?

@Terell Kirby Good insights. 'Being witnessed' is also duality, go deeper with the investigation of the direct experience. Not two.

I was closely following this guy before discovering actualized.org. Pretty healthy guy in all aspects, mostly yellow, I guess, but does it really matter? There is something right here way beyond SD model.

Again & again

@Someone here Good contemplation. Not really, 100% formlessness that appears as forms, like the screen and a movie.

@roopepa Have to learn how to let go a thinking loop by focusing on something other than thinking. There is nothing scary about a self realization, it doesn't make a zombie from you, see these quotes: The truth will set you free. Your own Self-Realization is the greatest service you can render the world. By not waking up you are an enslaved zombie so to speak. Do not believe in scary ideas about a self realization. It's all good now, listen to the feelings, this is your guidance system. ??

? The idea of Mahasamadhi is very similar to the idea of unicorns. Body is inside you, the whole experience is inside you, you can't leave you. Be where you are fully, don't engage in the thinking about unicorns, there is so much more life here, enjoy.

Yep. Rest in peace bro ?

"I’ve done everything in my life that I’ve wanted to do except just give and feel love for my living. And I don’t mean like: Roman-candle-firework-Hollywood-hot-pink-love. I mean like: I-got-your-back-love!"

@Zeroguy ?

The survival mechanism is also just an idea. God never comes and goes, it's always here for you. Thank you for sharing

You can't know what happens because happening happens inside actual you. You can realize who you are, then the content of happening is not that important compare to happening itself, then you can truly play freely, as one. You can't go somewhere else. You are always in one placeless place. Let's call the place 'Unconditional Love'. This is the best place to be and you are already arrived.

Magic mushrooms, Reiki, daily meditation, all this goodies work perfectly ^^

@ilja this is the past, let thinking go, that was the best possible scenario. Next time just try to relax in any such situation, without trying to analyse what you should or shouldn't do. You (as separate person) are not doing anything, life living itself, as one. You may deep breath, focus on the bodily sensation, etc before reacting. It's all good.

@VeganAwake @Nahm @James123 ?

This is a game changer, thank you
