If you think that there is no you, you have a quite an acid trip. And I'm not talking about "you", the character, I'm talking about everything. Speaking from your direct experience, don't you truly have a sense of "I am"? Not the thought "I am", the sense.

You are right. But you write that reincarnation is just beliefs and stories. And that's right, to you, they are. But if you are blind and you have never experienced eyesight, it doesn't mean it's just beliefs and stories. @Breakingthewall I assume that "you" that we refer to here is current perspective of awareness.

Be careful what are you so sure about. Remember you are talking from the limitation of your experience.

The realization that there is no enlightenment is enlightenment itself. There is nothing we can do to get there, it would never end. Everything we do is within the dream. Chasing enlightenment is within the dream. The more we are pulled into finding and chasing anything, the further away from the truth we get. Any concept about enlightenment is not it. Truth is right here.

I experienced death and being in the space where I could either come back to "this body", merge with everythingness or "reincarnate", imagine another lifetime, see myself from another perspective. Yet I knew when I'll go on, I'll forget "this" lifetime, because memory isn't quality of awareness, awareness just is. And awareness create this experience of "me", but it is everything, seen from certain perspective. Don't you see the beauty of the fact that the Universe loved you so much that it decided to become "you" and experience how it is to be "you"? It's divine perfection, it all is. But no words will ever describe it.

Yes, it is deeper, so in my understanding, for experience to happen, there must be experiencer and perspective. Otherwise you wouldn't know you exist, just as in pure being. And I didn't suggest that you were in a deep sleep, rather that deep sleep isn't a "deep sleep". So in a sense, awareness is what create existence, but awareness is everywhere. If there would be no awareness, you would just be it, you wouldn't be able to experience yourself. So, I guess, if we want to keep experiencing, we cannot purely be, because we are all. We can get closer to it, but not just be, otherwise "we" dissolve into everything and no experience occur. Does it make sense? Unless I'm wrong, and it actually is possible What I'm trying to say, you can see through and know it's a play, yet there is nothing wrong with feeling like "me". Sorry if it doesn't get us closer to the main issue of this topic.

What if holding that belief actually prevent you from experiencing someone who actually would be there? What's wrong with having a friend and lover to share the experience? If I remember well, Eckhart Tolle once said that on a human level there will be always a pull between female and male. Maybe not even to complete, but to appreciate the other. On a human level, body needs to eat, sleep, drink water and also touch, this makes things much easier and more enjoyable. I think sometimes it's worth to remember those as well, instead of pretending that we don't need anything or anyone. Ram Dass once said, that his invisible friend Emmanuel told him once: Why don't you just try to be a human for a change?

ivankiss, was that black emptiness something you would describe as a deep sleep? Because in a sense, everything disappear in a deep sleep and there is just nothingness, with no time or space. And then, big-bang, wake up.

That's so good

That's interesting what you write. Once my ex told me she wondered if they found her body in another parallel reality as she had death experience without any drugs or anything. But to me, it would be more relevant if you would experience it with no drugs involved to call it physical death, do you know what I mean? I too experienced dissolution of everything and death - after mushrooms - yet I do not remember any pitch black darkness. Rather formless divine stream of love and the place where you can either merge with it, come back to imagine this lifetime or get on, forget idea of this lifetime and imagine another one. Attachment brought me back into this, so this reality has been recreated. What's commong with your experience, it happened on "my will" so to speak.

God loves the idea of you infinitely even if you call him stupid, that's what love is capable of and to me, this is true intelligence, it's love, he (or she, sorry Mandy, it's just the language! ) uses love to awaken and improve you/itself, not intelligence.

Be careful, because you are becoming deluded in your own self-bias. All the things your mind listed and demonized - veganism, vaccinacion consciousness, numbers synchronicities, nofap - actually can hold a lot of value, maybe we should rather question ourselves why would do we hold a problem against those and where that's coming from?

Any idea what would happen if you'd give lsd, let's say to some animals? Would it raise their consciousness to the level when they would recognize themselves within the mirror (within the species that are unable to do that?). Just a wonder

Would you mind to put it in other words?

I feel sorry for you.

You cannot escape into meditation or come back into something. Whatever is, it is. You cannot escape what is, because then, that is what is. If you are escaping, this is what is. If you are not escaping, that is what is. Whatever you do or do not, that is what is. You cannot lost it because it always is and you cannot find it because it is always. There is nothing to do. Only being.

Understanding and compassion is the way.

As state of consciousness when it's conscious of the fact that everything is love and it's perfect.

I meant the perception of perfection.

We call it forgetting or remembering. That moment when you wonder how could you ever forget? But we do not forget, we change state of consciousness.

I did write mine down but recently don't do that anymore, as it became a tiny bit more common for me. Though, my impression is that is just life screaming, "I am happening, I am everywhere, I am you, wake up!".

So I have had a very hard time sleeping. For a few nights in a row. Do not even remember for how many exactly. But it's been a real struggle. So finally I have smoked a bit of weed to help me fall asleep. It did a miracle. I slept so well. Was thinking all morning about it, why is that it is helping me to sleep so much? Went to work. Radio was on. I do not like radio, but there was a program about... Marijuana helping with sleep trouble. Bang.

I have no idea what you guys talking about, I don't feel anything.

I think she has a few very good points on this:
