What is "opening the self "? -
Someone here replied to James123's topic in Spirituality, Consciousness, Awakening, Mysticism, Meditation, God
Here's the story of everything: once upon a time there was nothing. Nothing is one and singular so it does not know itself. So it decided to know itself .the only way it can know itself is by fooling itself that there is something else other than itself ..by imagining itself as separate subject perceiving a world populated by others . (Metaphorical obviously). -

@Joseph Maynor if one realizes he is everything and everyone..isn't spreading and giving love to everyone kind of the only rational thing to do ? -
Someone here replied to Ramasta9's topic in Spirituality, Consciousness, Awakening, Mysticism, Meditation, God
Obviously it's not "dog-realization". Some words hit closer than others as to what you are . The definition of God is an entity which is infinite ..boundless ..eternal ..immortal..omnipotent..omnipresent......omniscient ...all Good and more . And that's what you are .so what should that be called in your opinion? -
Someone here replied to Someone here's topic in Spirituality, Consciousness, Awakening, Mysticism, Meditation, God
Because everything in the universe is contingent..everything depends on other things ..therefore there must have been something eternal and doesn't depend on anything else . -

The most fundamental thing ever (and there has to be a most fundamental thing ever to give rise to anything at all that exists ) is pure presence. It's present all times and all places and in all conditions.. Right now and before an hour and after a million years . "Consciousness " in the sense of "perception " is not that . i get that spiritual teachers call ultimate reality as "consciousness " but it can be confusing . -
Someone here replied to Someone here's topic in Spirituality, Consciousness, Awakening, Mysticism, Meditation, God
Two sides : 1-there is something that is always present and ever-present. Whether you are awake or sleeping or dead or whatever. And it doesn't need conscious attention to give it existence or credence. 2- conscious attention obviously is not ever-present. You can create a distinction between pure presence which is always there and conscious attention which is not always there. -

@theleelajoker totally relate with you. what i have found is inside of my being there is emptiness. Literally there is no one or thing inside of me .yet I observe my thoughts and my actions or reactions as something the body is programmed to do .then I say that others are also empty vessels like me and all I hear inside of me or in the crowd is silence. -

Sure ..in the sense that if we don't use language or concepts and just sit in silent meditation in a thoughtless state then there is no question about the nature of direct experience or whether it's solipsistic or not . But the difference is I'm using "direct logic"..which means I'm investigating direct sensory experience as it is ..whereas you are reasoning about additional layers of abstractions (relationships ..casuality ..point of views ..absence of limits etc). -

What is immediately present here and now. -
Someone here replied to Hojo's topic in Spirituality, Consciousness, Awakening, Mysticism, Meditation, God
Totally agree . Also ..give yourself the love .don't expect true love from others . -
Someone here replied to Someone here's topic in Spirituality, Consciousness, Awakening, Mysticism, Meditation, God
This argument is 100% correct ..coherent..and consistent with itself logically. However..I'm NOT contemplating solipsism logically. I'm contemplating directly by testing it against direct experience. Not logic . Logic is second order reality .direct experience can never be wrong. -
https://www.bloomberg.com/news/features/2025-10-08/cristiano-ronaldo-is-first-football-billionaire-after-saudi-al-nassr-deal So..Ronaldo became the first billionaire football player ever. And at the launch of his YouTube channel he was battling MrBeast about who's gonna become the fastest YouTuber to gain maximum followers in the shortest time . Anyways..so after Messi won the World Cup in 2022...that was a game changer in the GOAT debate . This is the World Cup ..its no trivial trophy . But what I'm noticing ever since that ..is that Ronaldo is getting blowjobs from everyone on the interent . Everywhere you look you see some Propaganda about him and a kind of hyping him up as the GOAT without a doubt. I mean he is the top scorer in the history of football..but let's not forget that Messi is a fucking Alien .the ball is simply stuck with his feet like a magnet. So it's not so simple as everyone are hyping Ronaldo to be the best . Is there anyone else who notices a hyping up for Ronaldo especially after Messi won the World Cup ? I mean he is literally a fucking Billionaire right now so maybe he uses money to infect the media.

So I've been working on my health a lot for a while and I want to share simple tips that will dramatically increase the quality of your life if you can ace these aspects I'm going to mention. They are simple and already known but overlooked precisely because of that. sleep. I can't stress this enough ..I can't stress enough how much sleeping enough everyday is going to directly increase your happiness and vitality and will make your perception clearer ..in the physical sense .you are going to literally perceive reality clearer and brighter . And you will feel better . You are going to be calm and anchored. You will not be easily triggered or provoked by stressful situations. How to sleep ? Wake up and go to bed around exactly the same time everyday. Ideally of course wake up in the morning ( it depends on your schedule ofcourse but try to wake up before noon if you don't wanna feel like your day is upside down).and don't stay up to anything more than 11 PM. The healing and recovering in your body happens during 11PM-2 AM. Insomnia? No caffeine ..no cigarettes..no Caffeineated Soda like Pepsi or Cola after 5 PM. Work or excerise during the day .this one is obvious. This one is not obvious...eat the most of your food soon to bedtime .don't eat a lot during the day. The dinner should be the most calorically dense meal ..not breakfast or lunch . I'm talking specifically about crushing Insomnia here. Eating a lot will knock your body down and will help you sleep .

Body and mind and experience are not me . OK. So what are they ? To whom do they belong? -
Someone here replied to James123's topic in Spirituality, Consciousness, Awakening, Mysticism, Meditation, God
I like this inquiry. You do Have a point . Finally you make some sense π. But let me ask you this: if Truth was present without body and mind and experience..isn't it also present with body and mind and experiences ? -
Someone here replied to Someone here's topic in Spirituality, Consciousness, Awakening, Mysticism, Meditation, God
Yeah I'm aware. The raw direct experience is a collection of sounds and visuals .. the mind creates out of that egoless cocktail an illusion of "object ". Like now I'm holding my IPhone. There is no IPhone it's just a stream of visuals and sensations ..but mind fills in the blanks . -
Thanks for sharing .I heard that milk and banana smoothie is good too .
-
Yes I do .that's why I shared this tip. I'm aware of the negative side to eating too much before sleep like gaining fat or lack of recovery during sleep because the blood goes to the digestive system to digest the heavy meal instead of rejuvenating the body and can potentially trigger vivid dreams or nightmares .also increases blood pressure and heart rate as you mentioned . However..as I clearly said this is like a hack for overcoming chronic insomnia. if you can't sleep for days you won't care about the not so serious downsides of eating late .

There is never ever anything other than direct experience. Direct perception of Eiffel tower is a visual and auditory experience . A Thought or memory or mental image of the Effiel tower is also direct experience but is not made out of visual perception or auditory perception..rather...mental shady vague image in your mind . -
Someone here replied to Someone here's topic in Spirituality, Consciousness, Awakening, Mysticism, Meditation, God
Look at it..the answer is literally inside the question. You hear the voice but you don't see her .therefore what exists is the voice not the imagery. Is this accurate in your opinion? -
Someone here replied to Theplay's topic in Spirituality, Consciousness, Awakening, Mysticism, Meditation, God
Yes ..solipsism is true. There was and will never be anyone but you.stop acting like you donβt know it . However make no mistake about it ..this realization will never hit you FULLY like a motherfucker except in the moment of physical death . Before death you are alive ..in the life you are living there are other humans around you . And if that is true ..what in the hell is the utility of believing those others are conspiracy from your mind ? Or conspiracy from them on you ? Cause thats what solipsism is . A metaphysical conspiracy theory .You gonna discover it when you die anyways. Why are you in a rush ? Just because you are a solipsist won't erase the appearance of the apparent others . So I would say the only use of believing in solipsism while you are alive in this world is escapism.
