Something and nothing are identical. Form is emptiness. Emptiness is form.

@Tyler Durden all that's certain is your experience right now.. What was before you were born and after you die are unknown by defintion. Unless you have a memory of yourself in a previous life.

a man goes to a doctor in his cidy he goes, ay doc, i've got a problem... something happened... i cannot move my right hand. i mean, i can take my left hand and move my right hand with it... but i cannot move my right hand. it's like, i don't know HOW to move it. can you please tell me the doc says, well, it's simple, just move it the man asks, yes, but HOW. how do it JUST MOVE IT? the doc thinks... and he has no answer. he realizes that he himself does not know HOW he moves his right hand or well, anything... it's almost as if, one need only think or be told and one does. if i tell you, raise your right hand. you simply raise your right hand. when you make any movements yourself, the thought about moving and the action is ONE MOVEMENT. simultaneously. in-fact, we can say that conditioned action is without thought. it is simply arising. this is none other than "BE! and it Is" . REALITY IS : BE, and it IS you don't know HOW you move or speak etc. you simply think it, and it is. just as you may have once wanted to learn to ride a bike and so did... same way, you can learn to get the handle on larger things which you need only THINK and they will be. ASK and RECEIVE WANT and HAVE THINK and MANIFEST until it is simply collapses into a single continuous conscious manifestation... or as stated above, conditioned action, without thought. only a doing-creating. beyond labels. only NOW. - BEING - going from B-E-I-N-G to BEING because you're never not BEING

Studying, pondering and looking within myself and seeing the layers upon layers of contradictions, loose ends, faultlines and loopholes; it astonishes me how this whole 'thing' is still in one piece. I mean the whole world. I am astonished how anything functions at all! Given that 99% of people having no clue there is such a thing as meta knowledge. I mean its sooooo easy to poke and break people into ashes from inside out considering how flimsy and dreamlike sand castles our fabricated identities are. It astonishes me how come people seem to get together for few hours without raping and slitting each others throats, how people live in a family for decades without murdering each others, how suicide is not happening in billions, how people are not running outside naked in mass frenzy consumed by gnawing madness, how people dont just smash their heads open against the wall, how they dont pick out the eyeballs of their children and cook it so on and so forth. An absolute benevolent force is indeed operating. Yeah the abovementioned 'scary' cases do happen once in while, but yet there is this astonishing miracle holding it all together. Its a miracle people 'think' they are happy and happiness is possible tomorrow, its a miracle things still feel 'stable' in spite of few hiccups here and there. Its a miracle how everything is still maintained and conducted on time and schedule year after year...as if some almighty force is keeping everyone straight in line by firmly sticking its hand up everyone's butt. Its a miracle! And of course if spoken from plain, honest experience, all of it is my imagination. It is all held together because I have still held it all together

In my definition, reality is seen by the mind that does not think— it doesn't think, it's just awake. Its knowledge is immediate, as in knowing whether water tastes cold or not without deliberation. That's what knows. Actually, it's who knows. Who is that? It's just selfless awareness, your own mind right now. It's not just that non-discursive mind sees reality— it alone is what is reality. I can say that!

The thing is if you really realized that you are god you won't go and tell others about it .. Because you would be conscious there is only you. But seems like you are not awake.

There is only you. Only you can be awake or not.

When you are awake.. Everyone else are awake. When you are not awake.. Everyone else are not awake.

The illusory self needs to keep spinning the wheel and keep the fabrication going to create the sense of staying relevant.... Or else it will simply evaporate. It will implode from its own contradictions

He is not strawmaning scientists.. He is pointing out the limitations of science.

@Phil777 I think he is pointing to the miracle of what is. It goes beyond any scientific explanation. No scientist will actually be able to explain any single phenomenon completely. Reality is always and will always be a miracle.. A mystery

@EmptyVase thanks. Yeah it took me some introspective work though.

Yep.

Seriously. What the actual fuck is that lol?.... You lay your head on the pillow.. You fall asleep.. And then you find yourself inside an entire universe.. And it looks as real as this one. Just your thoughts can materialize a physical realm of objects and people etc. Wtf?? And why can't we dream while awake? Why can't my thoughts materialize objects without needing to fall asleep first? Anyone knows what's going on here? Dreams are a mysterious thing.. If anyone knows the mechanics of how dreams work.. Please share.

@Nahm I still don't understand what dreams are or how they work. Your reply made me more confused actually.

Indeed. Waking up every morning is a gift. A miracle that we take for granted.

to the people that don’t get it and don’t even try to understand it: I mean what the hell? All other illnesses get attention, but when it comes to mental health there are still people that think I am just “nervous.” or "pretending" or creating my own suffering. If that was the case .. I wouldn’t be trembling, crying, screaming, panting, dry heaving. So go educate yourself before you go to someone with anxiety and tell them something that is bull crap and make them feel insane. When people say, “That gives me so much anxiety” in a joking way, it’s not a joke. I go through nights with 3 or more panic attacks. I pace around my room as if it’s going to help. I text at least 10 people asking if they are awake just to make me feel less alone. Just when I feel like I’m doing well, it comes back. It has followed me for years and it gets worse when I feel like I have no one, when I feel like no one gets it. Change is extremely hard for me. Something as simple as rearranging my room can flip my world around. Anxiety and panic attacks are extremely painful some days, it is so hard to get up out of bed in the morning and go to class. I know I can be extremely irritable when I am anxious, but that is mostly because I am so mentally exhausted. I am so tired of calming myself down over and over again. I am so tired of trying to explain this to people that may just never get it. The best way I can describe it is this: Think of a situation where it feels like you might die. It feels like that. It’s so hard to not push people away because I depend on others so much and that’s because anxiety makes you feel helpless. It’s not something that’s particularly curable. People say there are things that I have not done to help myself which makes me so angry because I have been trying and working as hard as I can to make this go away. I know I can be okay and I know this is not forever, but when you go entire days feeling anxious, it’s easy to think that this is how you’ll feel forever.

@snowyowl I'm not sure if this app will work but I will give it a try.

Or you just don't want to admit that you don't know?

I want more details goddammit lol

LOL yeah I know! Right? ?

How so? If I think about a million dollars long enough... is it going to materialize?

I want more details.

@Vibroverse what are dreams?

@Fearless_Bum fair enough. Will give it a try.
