What is enlightenment?

Great! Look you are using the finite pathetic human mind to grasp the infinitely mind blowing miracle that is reality... At some point you gotta wise up and realize this can't work. Don't make any conclusions that you haven't grasped directly. Connect with the present moment via senses and let go of the need to know. There is nothing to know anyways. At least not for the mind. Take care friend.

Yes sir. Now you just took it to a whole new level lol.

No that's false. The you is just a thought story. It's not an experience . " You are having an experience of reality" =thought. Just thinking process. Take away that thinking for a moment..... Just reality. Just experience.

You have to figure out if there is such thing as "anyone" first. Again this is duality.. A someone.. And a teaching to be embodied.. And a process of embodiment. The teaching is for the ego. There is no ego to embody. Truth can't be embodied. Who would embody it?? It embodies itself it already is itself everywhere and everywhen. Wake up you little thread spy lol.

@arlin reality is nondual. It means there isn't two things that exist in reality. There is only just reality happening to reality. But That's also going too far. There is only just fucking THIS. Impossiblely direct. Just THIS. You and a happening is two. You are conscious of reality is two. Illusion and real is two. You and consciousness is two. There is only one thing and THIS is it. Any divisions you think are imaginary. That includes the division between real and imaginary. Between subject and object. Between Leo and your dad. Between right and wrong. Between duality and nonduality. Don't try to use the mind to understand. The mind can just create distinctions. All distinctions are bullshit. Reality is ONE. There is nothing to understand. It all self-understands itself perfectly. Wake up. Wake up.

THIS is Consciousness. Right here. It's not illusion. Fine? Now go ahead.. Where is this ghost called you? How do you know you are the head and not the feet? How you know you are the human feet and not the TV screen? You think you are looking at the screen right now right? That's just a thought.. Take away the thought "I am looking at the screen right now" for a moment.... All the sudden there is just pure screen happening to no one.

Dude there is no you to become conscious of anything. You don't exist. Only consciousness exists. And that is YOU.

Alright I wanna understand.. If she did that.. What exactly is "wrong" with it? Is it wrong morally? Ain't no such thing as morals we are just a bunch of evolved apes who figured out how to create illusions to organize our lives. Is it because she might be traumatized? Ok so she doesn't deserve love? She can't change? If she is my wife now then her prostitution career is something from the past. Why can't she open a new page with me and be become a sincere wife?. Is it because she might cheat on me? Any woman can cheat on You. If she did cheat on me that's a different subject..but imagine how crazy it is to divorce your wife because you think she "might" cheat on you!. I would say I'm not sure if I could date her beforehand.. If I knew she was a prostitute.. But if I didn't know and then married her for few years and loved her.. Maybe even had kids.. No way in hell I'm leaving her.

Well I know what you are pointing to. The relative nature of everything. So from a relative perspective.. We assume a separate self that should have a certain personality and behave in a certain way that is constant and unchanging. My experience of no-self I can see the whole "self" "personality" thing is a just a bunch of conditiodned thoughts. So there is nothing objective about who you are or how you should behave or what defines being "normal" or being "mentally ill". Yet we have those constructs they have relative and practical value. Maybe it's linked to survival. The more you act in a constant way the higher your chances of survival.

Beautiful and very true

There is a lot of suffering that one can experience in this life. Some people are lucky they experience less suffering and some people are just fated to be in the middle of some extreme shit like starving kids in Africa etc. Suffering exists so let's not waste time arguing about whether it exists or not.. My question is there a salvation? A permanent end to all forms of suffering? If so what it is? Because I don't think there is such a way except permanent annihilation. Please make your response non - classical and nuanced because it's so easy to deconstruct woo woo unrealistic answers. Thanks

If you die you will be born again. And if you are born again you will die. the truth is you are never born and will never die. P.S talking about the real you btw.

Do NOT think of a pink elephant.. If thinking happens.. Free will debunked. If thinking didn't happen.. . Free will debunked. see its not a "thinker "who thinks or not think. For" what " is the free will? Try to Rewrite the post without using the words "I".. "me" or "we". ?

@willl Very helpful and informative. Thank you.

LOL dude you just checkmated the hell outta my brain

@Dodo good shit bro. You are waking up. A lot of nondual jerking off going on though. But nice overall. ❤️

What does unreal mean without the real?

"you don't have a soul ..your soul has you" My soul? Has me? I thought I have my soul.. Is the me and the my soul and I fundamentally different or distinct? Or maybe you are just getting lost in duality. ?

Do NOT think of a pink elephant.. If you did... Free will debunked. If you didn't.. Free will debunked. ? Ya see it's not "you" who thinks or not think. For whom is the free will? Try to Rewrite your post without using the words "I".. "me" or "we".

See the tricks of the mind. Your so-called senses are literally the only thing that you know of reality. Yet you are doubting that for the sake of a thought "what if this is not real? ". I tell ya.. This is not "real" . There is no such thing as "real "or" unreal". These are just concepts. What's here and now can't be defined or put into categories. Just meditate and observe the flow of thoughts. Observe how thoughts about "unreal" are themselves the unreal that is trying to pull you away from the "real".
