@PurpleTree expose yourself to new experiences. Can you travel to a different country?

I envy you . There is ALWAYS something beautiful about every experience. Even suffering has its own beauty if you know how to suffer consciously . A good question to work with is: what's preventing me from enjoying this moment? And to notice that nothing is . Thanks ?

I see ? Just curious..are you open to the possibility that there is "more " to awakening than merely recognition of no self? It is not uncommon to experience or realize one facet of infinity that might make you think you know it all and then to later realize deeper..more profound aspects . So be patient about the experience you had in 2018. don’t be quick to come to conclusions or form solid understandings. Stay open minded lighthearted..and interested. You’ve been moving quick..burning through the mental layers that take a lot of people years. Lastly..if you think this is a ride.. wait till you fully realize the infinite unconditional love that you are. Reality gets entirely flipped inside out.. outside in. The whole show is literally happening within you.. within your love ❤

There is actually some anecdotal evidence backing up reincarnation. People who remember their past lives .

Two things : 1-study the work of famous philosophers 2-think independently and try to do a critique of their work. For example watch a philosophical video of Leo and then try to prove him wrong. Become skeptical etc If you want to become a professional philosopher..there is no way other than academia .

You return to the source of all things .and then anything can happen from that place .

@VeganAwake you still think that the self is illusory lol? Gosh that's so 2018

@Bazooka Jesus wait a minute..are you a girl? Or a gay guy ?? Either way..you are a funny person .you never fail to make me laugh I like you.

@LastThursday what makes you think the picture is modified or fake? Are you implying that she is so beautiful that it can't be real?

I don't know. But in all her pictures she is blonde .

Lol You are overthinking this my dude . You can Google her name . Why ? Fair enough. No she is blonde. Beautiful what?

She is real though ?

I broke up with my girlfriend just recently. I have nothing to say to you . It's just horrible. I tried to man up and not get sucked into depression but it's just horrible. I hope you find a new gf soon .

Yes I understand. So the main argument that @Javfly33 is presenting is that consciousness is not a property of people. Rather..people occur within an impersonal field of isness/ consciousness. The hardest part is the temptation to label all those background ppl an autopilo NPCs. Since you can NEVER EVER see the world through their eyes .

@Javfly33 so in a nutshell no one is conscious. This is the most absurd duality of them all. People don't have consciousness. Consciousness have people (not even)?

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solipsism_syndrome Its a thing .People who isolate themselves for long looong period of time begin to feel that they are existentially alone .no one is conscious But them .they feel that the external world is not separate from their minds .the two are Interconnected and fused together. So extremely long periods of isolation can turn you into a solipsist. But isn’t society filled with so much bullshit? I've always knew that the purpose of socializing is to keep you distracted and not look inwards. But hey ..I'm not specifically saying solipsism is true under all conditions (meaning its not absolute truth, because absolute truth is direct experience without any philosophical boxing of the present moment). Solipsism is both true and false simultaneously.

Sweet

@Razard86 answer me this ..are we both conscious and have awareness simultaneously right now? Or is it just me? Or just you ?

@Princess Arabia it's an error . The forum sucks on the PC. I can't hide posts easily.lol But I understand your point . What is your opinion about her btw ? do you think she is a fucking dime? Or is that just some extra testosterone in my body since I haven't masturbated for two months now

OK cool !

Why though ?what's wrong with rating her ? Anything morally wrong about it? or objectification or what ?

You can't not make conclusions. In order to survive as this flimsy ball of imagination that you are ..you must create metaphysical and Epistemological conclusions about what reality is ..otherwise you will be left in a state of complete not-knowing and that might make you go insane. So you create stories to justify the present moment (I live on a blue planet in some galaxy in some universe bla bla etc). Otherwise you would realize that all of that is imaginary and only your direct experience exists. You personally is God. The whole of God...not just a tiny part of God..the entire fucking God. You say I'm falling into duality when you are the one making duality between the "small self " and the "I AM". No matter how much thought experiments you do or cute examples you come up with ..the truth is you only know you exist. Others are unsettled mystery. In counter strike when you play against the AI...the only conscious player is you.

No .it actually says the self (my individual self as Someone here ) is the only real conscious field in existence. It says there is no one looking through any eyes except me . That's the definition of metaphysical solipsism. You can Google it. I'm not entirely sure if this is true . But I lean more towards Epistemological solipsism (you can Google that too ). It states that my mind is the only CERTAIN mind .

@Javfly33 well its driving me mad . Unfortunately it might be true . I keep changing My mind about this topic because since I was a little kid I had that intuition that I am the only real one out there and everyone else are characters in my dream reality. You can't refute it as a hypothesis. So ...?
