VeganAwake

Did you get this from the enlightenment for dummies book Q&A portion?

not responding to you because you stole my mumbo-jumbo saying..?

yes it's a tough topic because everybody's experience is different... Remember there's still a conditioned body that could have been abused or had serious trauma occur... There's no rules... what Rings true with Awakening is dropping the resistance.. Even when Osho was getting arrested in Colorado he hid behind the airplane seat... Then someone talked to him into deboarding the plane and he came out with hands clasped and blessing everybody as usual. Once Awakening occurs its fair game... Ego can still show up... In the East they used to call this the "Divine game of Lila" dabbling back and forth in Duality having fun... this although can be a little immature and it doesn't seem like deeply awakened do much of it.

It's really an interesting paradox... It's recognized that the conditioned body/mind was never something that needed to be improved or changed.. it's just what is happening You didn't choose to be conditioned, it's just what happens in society and by our family... When this is recognized it's like a warm hug is given to all of existence and a whisper in the ear that everything is okay it's just what it is. The Paradox is you naturally embody unconditional love and there almost seems to be a leaning towards so-called better Behavior but that's just what it seems like it's not a guarantee..

Yes absolutely THIS is all it as well.. There is no final truth because there was never a secret... it was always out in Plainview... It just needed clear eyes to see it.

If somebody murdered my mother I would dedicate my entire existence to slowly poisoning him and his family through a process of adding deadly gene-altering carcinogens into their home water supply.... I didn't say there any stipulations to non-dual awareness ?

The constant seeking is the hell and it perpetuates the belief that the Seeker is real and can find something called enlightenment.. Before Enlightenment one must roll the boulder up the mountain... After Enlightenment one must still roll the boulder up the mountain... What has changed? The resistance to what is...❤

I really like what you said here ❤ ?

It's so easy you don't even have to push a button... non-dual awareness is at hand. Enlightenment is the one thinking it's not enlightened... It's the one thinking a button needs to be pushed... It's the one dreaming about what it would be like to be enlightened... It's what you already are... Look around at everything.... this is it there's nothing else you will ever find ...this is it. Its THIS... It's already perfect whole and complete.... it always was... it's just waiting for you to recognize it... It's already here don't miss it looking for something that you will never find... Its here NOW... do you see it can you see it? Do you have eyes to see? ❤

Non-duality is a word pointing to everything without outside Observation. You can't throw away something that's referring to everything as itself because the throwing away, the in-between and the picking up something new is also everything...? Damn it we have no Freedom right...

@Eren Eeager ? ❤

This is good advice ? Stay radically open minded and simultaneously grounded.. Take the middle path.. somewhere between open empty and skeptical ?

No not at all... that was weird it just sounded like I was hearing myself talk... I think you understand things a lot more than you realize or maybe you do realize it I don't know...?

I think this Arlin dude just woke up y'all ?

Wow that came out of nowhere.. exactly right...

There's not a separate 'I' here that is aware of Infinity out there. You are as much to infinity as Infinity is to you. There's no line separating you and infinity. Everything You touch smell taste hear and see and imagine is it.

Fear of too much freedom.. Complete Anarchy Deep religious conditioning passed down from family. Uncertainty... Love would not mean nothing matters.. God will flood the Earth again... Judgement Day Will Cometh... We don't deserve freedom... Were not worthy... Its barbaric... Makes too much sense, can't be right.. Satan's got a grasp on you...? Time for the Lake of Fire... I completely misunderstand the whole message and I am not grasping it in any way at all...

I have heard it described that way but it seems to be a little different for everyone... Some are instantaneous and some can be gradual... Once the bottom of the bucket falls out, it never again holds water. Once the truth is recognized it's never forgotten... When true Awakening is embodied the self is dissolved... and it's simultaneously recognized it never existed. You're very welcome my friend ?

In my opinion these guys just remove the religious/spiritual/mystical woo woo mumbo jumbo out of the awakening story.. All they are really saying is: 1) There is no separate self inside the body...running the show, that's Maya. 2) There isn't a path for the illusory separate individual to follow to find something called Awakening because the separate individual is the illusion itself. 3) Everything is already perfect whole and complete and just needs to be recognized. That's essentially their entire message.. doesn't sound that evil right lol? Oh wait they're crazy deluded Neo Advaitist's that's right haha.

Awakening is the end of the seeking... Finally, we come to a stop. We realize that all that we are, and all that we need, can be found right Now. The search to become something, to lose something, to find something and to accomplish something perish. We see through the illusion of looking for truth, joy, peace, and love in any place outside of ourselves. We see the Truth That We Are mirrored in all beings and all things. While the ego still exists, we become aware of the ego as simply a tool; not the Truth of Who We Are. Transcending duality and the grip of the ego, we develop the capacity to give unconditional love and acceptance. This is the state of ultimate inner peace, freedom and what people refer to as “enlightenment,” yet those who experience this know that no possible label or mental construct can encapsulate such an experience. Ego death is a serious, purging, profound, and shattering experience. It is so deep and so beyond anything we have experienced in this life, that it changes your perception of existence in a single moment.

It's not like a test or anything.. It's okay for the conditioned body/mind to judge things as good or bad or in between....the underlining recognition that its just conditioning is where the Freedom lies...? like Leo says: awareness alone is Curative...

I like that it = 0 ?

Yes I've been in the US Navy for over 18 years... Not sure if you're aware of this but most governments have Financial ties and obligations to the very industries themselves like the meat and dairy industry. Governments also tend to get their nutrition guidelines from the very industries that are actually selling the products and doing the research...ie.. meat, dairy egg Industries. The science seems to get skewed when the very Industries that are selling the products are also doing the research... You won't be hearing much about how eggs have the highest amount of saturated fat and cholesterol out of any food of equal size. Probably won't hear about the negative effects of igf-1 primarily found in meat. From the World Health Organization: Twenty-two experts from 10 countries reviewed more than 800 studies to reach their conclusions. They found that eating 50 grams of processed meat every day increased the risk of colorectal cancer by 18%. That’s the equivalent of about 4 strips of bacon or 1 hot dog. For red meat, there was evidence of increased risk of colorectal, pancreatic, and prostate cancer.

I seriously love this guy's energy... he floats in non-dual awareness gracefully.. if I ever go back to Costa Rica again I'm going to make a special visit..
