Someone here

How can God be God without being nailed on a cross though ? Like have you ever thought about that ?

The gap between lives though is also immediate. Just like the gap between falling asleep and waking up is felt as zero time from the inside out...even though from the outside in it appears to take time like multiple hours.. That is if you want to speak of the reincarnation model at all . No one has ever explained the reincarnation thing fully ..neither Leo or Sadhguru or Rupert Spira ..everyone is confused about this question. I read an interesting quote the other day ..people would come to ask Ramana Maharshi all sorts of philosophical questions when he was alive like this question about reincarnation..he would answer by asking this question " does this question occur to you when you are in deep sleep ?" And people would answer "no".. And Ramana would say "then it's not important "😂. Next level wokeness .

https://youtu.be/NhP1uVAdnEM?si=bY50jTMXyuUxwcmc I'm fucking sick of this . He probably got some racists whistles and insults from Benfica's crowd and the players as well because he is black . I'm not empathising with him. He is presenting Real Madrid..the biggest club in the world and he is still acting like a little teenager or kid .OK you have scored an amazing powerful curvey unstoppable ball..but why do you have to go "Thug Life " about it and create drama and mess the entire atmosphere? Is this boy gonna replace Ronaldo in the team? When Ronaldo scored the unreal bicycle kick he respected the crowd's clapping him and he basically scored (arguably)the most iconic goal ever. I'm not trusting the team anymore. They play like shit . They are not gonna win any titles this year .why is this Arbeloa guy a head Coach ?

@Breakingthewall OK. Has nothing to do with this specific inquiry of this topic in my opinion. Might be a topic for a different day. Also you sound too seated in your ways about certain concepts you have like "structure ".."Patterns ".."opening ". "Centrality". I'm not entirely sure what are you talking about when you say these things .and you don't seem to adhere to any laws ...anything goes with you. .so I would refrain from carrying on this conversation.

Take your time man. We love you. Reminds me of your live awakening video part 2. The "amazon guy" one.."God has to worry about the laptop's battery .God has to worry about these relative things " 😂.

You are right in that telling it to people is pointless and it can only be grasped with experience. It's not a matter of logic or facts..because it's a fact that this life is limited and we will die someday ..and we will not take anything with us to the grave. No matter how much you love "it" or "him" or"her"..you have to let them go . So presumably we all get that logically..but what helps us not going insane over it is we forget about it .we are not constantly (like 24/7) thinking about mortality and how everything is temporary and fleeting ...otherwise we will be depressed and under medication. I say it needs not be a problem ..you can relate to the fact that life is just a blink of an eye in the universe's lifetime positively..because it also means your suffering and problems are temporary..not just your happy moments. Also man thank goodness that Someone here will die one day..I wouldn't wish eternal life to my worst enemies.(I'm talking about the human self not the absolute eternal self).

Well that's what happening at all scales . When you designed this life you designed dreams as breadcrumbs to help you awaken to your true self . Like an analogy for life .

"The Truth "can't be said .

Question about suffering. I do know(at least I believe i discovered ) how to overcome suffering..just by zoning out of the changing world and focusing on my own inner void. That's also how I overcame fear of non-existence and fear of sleeping and never awakening again ..that the void is not something to be feared but it's the ultimate truth and nature of myself ..reality and god . The question is this delusional or escapism or what is missing in this approach? Thank you.

We already gave you the absolute answer . You are never going to solve drama by starting drama about drama . You are posting in the spirituality section so we are giving you a spiritual absolutist type of answer ..we are not experts in economics or archeology or something. The bottom line is you are the one and only source of drama in this world .if you look outside of yourself then sure people are a bunch assholes spewing endless nonsensical suffering stories on top of life ..always was ..always will be . The point is you don't have to engage in this bs .look inward .nothing is happening inside of you .extend the line ..nothing is happening inside anyone .anchor yourself in that inner silence. That place where all is well. Unless you enjoy drama.

No offence and not trying to mock you but I'm losing traction with what you are trying to say or get at . At best you are arguing for no self if I'm not wrong. How is no self related to solipsism? Do you mean if there is no "center " then it follows solipsism is faulty because solipsism is the worldview that only I the self is real while the world is a projection of the self?

this is why synchronicity happens all the time .

Obviously not 100%.

You,silly .

Nice excuses. Where is "peace be upon him"? 😂

Great quote. Sufis are great but no one beats indian sages . This one by Nisargadatta is an absolute gold I just now finished listening to it and I feel like I understand everything 😂

What is "opening the self "?

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 ?

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?

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 .

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).
