VeganAwake

THIS is already death because there already isn't a real living individual within the body moving through time and space. And yes that's a big letdown for the sense of self that is so desperately trying to figure out a way to escape death. No one dies because no one was born. The body will die just like a deer out in the forest. You doesn't die because it was never real in the first place. ? The biggest problem for you is death.... the cosmic joke is there already isn't anyone alive. ❤

Non-duality doesn't eliminate perspectives, point of views, and interpretations of apparent others. What's recognized is that none of those experiences equate to a real separate individual within the body.... the individual is a byproduct of those experiences.... an illusory identity that thinks it owns those experiences. Like a sticky self-centered web that clings to all experiences and so-called knowledge and then moves through life with that dream story interpretation. "Awakening is the disentangling from the socially conditioned Matrix of Mind known as ME" - Samadhi (Maya illusion of the self) ❤

Yes nobody leaves because it's recognized there wasn't a real player or a real game.

No prob, What you're looking for is the end of the experience that something needs to be understood or gotten. Recognize that the mind will always think there's something that needs to be done or found.... it never rests, it will fight tooth and nail all the way through. Hope the job went well ❤

@EntheogenTruthSeeker sounds like you need some rest friend. Maybe take a nice break from all the spiritual stuff. Don't worry nothing is going anywhere. And yes you can trust me! ❤

The communication is simply stating that the very sense of self that believes it needs to find something (AKA Enlightenment) isn't real. It illuminates the futility of an unreal sense of self that believes with enough diligent spiritual practice and meditation it will one day arrive at or achieve so-called Enlightenment.

@Consilience The seeking energy doesn't want to hear that there’s nothing to do because that recognition will put it out of a job which is always to find something that it thinks isn't already here.... hence the constant meditation and spiritual practices. For the Seeker the answer always lies just up ahead around the next corner(hamster wheel effect)..... but the seeker isn't real so it's a hopeless endeavor. "The ego says seek but do not find" - A Course in Miracles ❤

She is good ? ?

Existence kind of seems like a constant time travel. Not that it's going anywhere, but that it's in constant energetic flow. It's completely free and wild without boundaries or perimeters. Boundlessness Always fresh and always new. You never step into the same river twice and it's constantly rivering.

Nothing is known here but pretty sure rainbows don't suffer.

Yeah, it's kind of like the finish line is recognizing there was never a race or a runner Random non-dual quote: "Everything is Nothing with a Twist"

Yep it's everything including the interpretations of it. ❤

It's described as unreal or illusion like because it really "does not exist". It's a misunderstanding or misidentification.... Jim Newman describes it as a psychosomatic misunderstanding. An assumed identity that has the ability to create so-called good or bad reactions.(not only suffering) There are millions if not billions identified as separate individuals out there living life and seemingly enjoying it for the most part. It's a real AND unreal experience. Real in the sense that when there is full on identification as a separate individual there doesn't seem to be an alternative experience. Unreal in the sense that when this experience of individuality ends, it's simultaneously recognized as having never been real. ❤ il·lu·sion - a thing that is or is likely to be wrongly perceived or interpreted by the senses. - a deceptive appearance or impression. - a false idea or belief.

Because being alive is more familiar and usually more comforting than death which is unknowable.

There isn't a you and then a separate thing called an ego. They are the same illusory experience of individuality.

Yes, Sense of self/I am/Ego: are all 3 words pointing to the same localized experience of individuality. This illusory self construct(ME) isn't a real entity although it feels very solid and intact. It feels like I am in here and everything else is out there. But there's no one inside or outside of the body.... it's an illusion of identity that takes itself very seriously and subtly believes it's the most important identity in the whole world. There's nothing right or wrong with that experience.... it's just what apparently seems to be happening. Awakening is the disentangling AS this separate identity. And when it SEEMS to happen, it's simultaneously recognized that this separate identity was never real in the first place.... which makes it a non happening. ❤

Do "you" think my dog bailey is also God? I don't think he really thinks about that stuff but nevertheless he seems pretty happy or all set as you put it.

Nonduality is not about attepting to metaphorically smash everything together into some kind of imagined non-dual soup within a thought process. For example a race car in a japanese auto factory is never going to appear the same as your grandmother's rocking chair on the front porch.... there IS apparent separation in that sense. Nonduality is the recognition that the separate sense of self within the body("you") or any body for that matter("them") was never real to begin with. It's the END of the experience of being a separate individual that needs to find something. OR It's the END of seeking because it's clearly recognized that the very one seeking is just an illusion of self. AND simultaneously Nonduality IS ALSO the experience of being a separate individual because there is no real separate experiencer for that experience to be separate for.... there's NO WAY to get outside of EVERYTHING to point back at it. No real individual = No real separation Not two = THIS exactly as it appears "The separation never occurred" - A Course in Miracles It appears or seems hidden by already being the case. The phrase "Non-dual awareness" is not used because that would suggest that there is "someone" who could become aware that there isn't any separation. Nobody becomes aware, nobody becomes awake, nobody becomes liberated.... and yes that seems like a big let down for the "sense of self" that so desperately wants to wake-up.... totally get it! But they're already isn't a separate individual which is exactly what the word Awakening is pointing out. ❤

What's being said is there already isn't a you that could do anything about it. The body may or may not decide to get a prescription for a muscle relaxer & weekly scheduled massage therapy, and or adjust its posture with a chiropractor. There can be pain or pleasure in the body but it doesn't belong to anyone, it's what's happening, there isn't anyone actually experiencing it. ❤

It's more than just distinctions or conditioning though, it's an embodied experience. Kind of like if you thought you found a 10,000 carat diamond, and was now wealthy beyond imagination and the owner of the biggest diamond on the planet.... Only then to find out it wasn't a real diamond, it was just a giant cubic zirconia which was essentially worthless. It's a real and simultaneously unreal experience. The exciting experience of finding the planet's largest diamond was still real but under a false assumption that it held life changing value.

Exactly or another way of saying it is: Conditioning creates a dream story or overlay of meaning, purpose and value over top of reality and then functions from that perspective.

There is apparent separation between objects like the body, a cat, a dog, a rock a tree, a fence. It's the sense of self or individuality within the body which is the completely unreal part. The "I am" is not a real entity. No real individual = No real separation ❤

It's the best and only show in town!

The negative aspect of pulling out or living off the dividends is that you lose out on the compounding interest. Rental properties are great for passive income because you can have someone paying you rent while the value of your properties go up about 3 to 5% each year. If you worked for 5 or 10 years and you already had a place to live, you could easily save up enough money to buy a couple rental properties with cash. Then you could probably just work a less demanding job for money to live off of.
