VeganAwake

The knower is the dream character...

Yes truth is a word created within everything... And everything can never be pinpointed or hung on a nail...

Whatever you do never toot while perfectly upright on a flat surface during deep meditation... it blew out the O ring in sphincter Section 5.

This was 'me' during the first week of chasing enlightenment ?

Where is the individual that would disassociate? Find that one? Where is it located? What makes up this apparent individual?

Non-dual awakening is the recognition that there never was separate individuals in the bodies. There cannot be any real separation if there was not actually any real separate individuals within the bodies to begin with. When the body observes and looks around it sees apparent separation... I.e. mountains, tree's, lakes, ocean's, buildings, airport's, cars, animals, humans. For no reason whatsoever the boundless energy of everything can also constrict itself within the human body, and create an individualized illusory experience of The 'ME'... but not just any 'ME', the most important 'ME' that ever existed. Awakening is the recognition that the separate individual never existed.... it was just a misidentification with the body's experiences, feelings thoughts ideas perceptions Etc... hence nobody becomes enlightened. When this illusion of 'self' is clearly seen through, it dissolves the entire story of The self-centered 'ME' character that was once experienced as top priority of existence.

A lot of good information in this video which has been recently discussed on the forum. Thought it was worth a share ❤ Aaron was also recently interviewed on the 'Buddha at the gas pump' series.

I participated in several of his Zoom meetings... this one is coming up on the 12th of Sep.

And you couldn't even take them to court for false advertising... the judge would probably say what did you think was going to happen ?

Like this ?...

@Arzack ❤ Yes Samadhi(Enlightenment) is the stilling of the whirlwind of mind. It's a clear snapshot at the suffering and illusion that identification with constant thought causes. The identification of the 'self' becomes loosened. The constant mind chatter lessons because it's not being entertained the way it was before. It dies down greatly. It's easy to notice people running around in the rat race in full mind identification.... they may not even appear to be suffering, but they are definitely not free. More things can become evident but it's not anything that isn't already the case now. ?

Drop everything... Empty the glass completely... Start inquiry at nothing... Zero....but not a something Zero... A never existed Zero... No thing = 0 COMPLETELY EMPTY!!!

Where is the one that wants/hopes it is all about ❤? Find that one...

Then that's what's being experienced there...❤

Sounds like there's already a belief there that it's not that easy. Easy because it's already the case... Hard because it's so easy it's overlooked...

Because Enlightenment is the collapsing/death of the sense of 'self' that believes it can become enlightened. In that regard, seeking is often seen as futile because it only reinforces the belief that there is a separate individual that will one day attain something called enlightenment.

This is a great inquiry...? Inauthenticity relative dualistic unnatural are all words pointing to something that doesn't exist. How could something be unnatural or inauthentic when it's what's happening... everything that happens is absolutely 100% authentic... for how could it be otherwise. Everything comes from the same source...THIS!! ❤

@Farnaby ❤ that was one of my awkward jokes ?

Yeah I used to think my fitness instructor was a narcissist until he got me benching 275lbs and squatting 650lbs... turns out he knew what he was talking about and the negative connotation was just my projection. How dare you categorize the Beloved Master as a narcissist.

Some questions: What is enlightenment? Who had a problem with alcohol?...the Alan Watts character?... the body of an apparent separate individual named Alan Watts?... Who wants to re-evaluate his teaching? Who are you? Is there a character that exists inside that body? What does it consist of?

Everything that's happening is natural.... could it be otherwise

It's the death of the individual that believes it needs to find happiness. It's freedom for No One ❤
