An illusion or misidentification does not equal anything because it was 0 all along. And everything you described is happening within everything my dear....it's all one ❤ This is why the yin-yang appears as opposites in one Circle.... pointing to non-duality. ?

Well it would be recognized there's nothing needed externally because nothing was ever actually missing. Only the illusion of the separate self felt like something needed to be found

Non-duality cannot be understood until the illusion of self is seen through.... the veil gets lifted and then it's recognized. You still believe no one is someone ❤

This transcends right or wrong it's just whether it's recognized or not....in most cases not....❤ Which is also perfect whole and complete! For No One!

Yep and there is still what is happening, it's just not happening for anyone.... the individual that it feels like it's happening for is the illusion is Maya is the dream ❤ Ya got it

Because there is an experience there, that one day a separate individual will find something called Enlightenment. Sometimes this constant seeking can become overwhelming and so stressful that the entire self structure collapses. Other times it just happens for no apparent reason whatsoever. Hence why it's called the pathless path ❤ I'm not talking about it, the communication apparently happens, it's what's happening. Nothing recognizing it's nothing... there is no answer because there is no real question.

There is no 'WE', that's what non-duality is pointing to. The finger pointing suggest duality. The finger was never separate from what it was pointing to. ❤

I wouldn't describe it as a withdrawal...❤ That still subtly suggest it was real to began with. It's the clear recognition there was never a separate 'ME' that could become enlightened. Because Enlightenment is pointing to the cessation of the 'Self'.

There isn't a 'You', that's what non-duality is pointing to....

Enlightenment does not expose dualism. It illuminates the fact there was never a separate individual (duality) in the first place. To say something was exposed is still subtly suggesting it was actually real in the first place.... " The separation never occurred" -- A Course in Miracles

Why are we frightened to be nothing. Listen from 43:10 to 49:30.

@James123 absolutely ...a lot of his videos had poor sound quality, or airplanes flying overhead or trains passing by LOL so I try to find the good ones.

@justfortoday ❤ of course...your welcome!

Also check out from 9:00 - 19:10 ❤ I've spoken with Robert Wolfe several times on the phone since he lives right here in Ojai California.

Yep pregnant nothingness empty and full....so crazy!!

I think it's about whatever is being experienced, joy pain fear love hate all of the above. ❤

Im eating the chocolate bunny also.... Hehe sounds funny.

Yes I don't even like to say it disappears because it's recognized it just never was. Like the old Indian analogy of the snake and the rope. Although the rope had an apparent ability to cause emotion and effect. It was never a real snake... ❤

Hey my friend ❤

yes that's a good book...❤ Basically we lay down our agenda on top of reality and then operate from that position. If things go according to 'my' agenda its good. If they're not in alignment with 'my' agenda they're bad.

Sometimes I get the feeling that you're so adamant about this position because your Forum name is "someone here" It's real and it's unreal... real in the sense that it appears that there is a separate individual inside the body which believes life has meaning purpose and value and its biggest problem is death. Unreal in the sense that if you peer close enough through the Veil of Maya, it can be a recognized there isn't any real substance to this illusion. It can be recognized it's a misidentification with thoughts and contracted energy in the body as the 'Self structure'.

So you're giving God an agenda. Do you believe the animals are just here for our enjoyment also... or is it for their enjoyment. I get what you're saying but that would be a tough pill to swallow for someone who just lost their entire family to the Coronavirus or a hurricane. See when you go into to any inquiry believing you already know the answer it becomes the roadblock oftentimes. Hence why the saying "empty your glass" is so important in these kind of inquiries. For example maybe there isn't an intention at all and we just place that belief on to god/purpose of life. The biggest obstacle to Discovery is not ignorance, it's the illusion of knowledge

❤

Yes the feeling of Unconditional Love... The love that remains when it's recognized the separate individual that placed meaning purpose and value( conditions) on top of THIS experience was an illusion. Like Tony Parsons says it's all 'The Beloved' It's perfect whole and complete for No One. It's Unknowing!! Its THIS!!
