according to Gautama Buddha ..what is going on is basically that the unmanifest is only appearing as the manifest . or the unlimited appearing as the limited . water stays water even when it is iced or steamed . "form is emptiness. emptiness is form. they are one ." - heart sutra. "he who seeks nirvana ( the unmanifest) is a fool. he who seeks samsara (earthly life or the manifest) is also a fool. nirvana is samsara and samsara is nirvana" -diamond sutra.

for any form" thing " to exist it must be Impermanent. or " anything that gets born into existence must die eventually". Nothing is static. Everything is in constant motion and Flux. Always. Forever. This second is gone. And this one also . It's over. The experience that you had Just before you click on this thread is gone forever. It's nothing right now. Think about your childhood memories.. All gone. Nothing. There might be some days in your life that you don't even remember at all.. All gone as if never even happened. Philosophy and religion has been talking about this concept of Impermanence since the beginning of mankind's lifetime.it is very essential in the teachings of buddhism . And really it's so easy and obvious to understand for everyone. But when you actually sit down and observe this and contemplate the full ramifications of this.. You might get existential crisis at first . When you discover that You can't achieve anything(permanently) . No matter what you do will be gone. You always strive for pleasure and happiness and achievements but you can't actually have it because it doesn't last. You try to elevate the dose (no pun intended) but no matter how happy you are for how long.." It's gone" . It's always gone. You can try everything you think will make you happy but you always end up empty and craving for even more.. because "it's gone". Every experience is born to die. And therefore there is really Nothing worth being attached to. No matter what you do or where you go.. you are always back "here" with "this". These are some tough pills for us to swallow. We know that subconsciously as we seek our happiness but not coming to terms with it creates suffering and emptiness and all kinds of addictions and neurotic behaviors. I'm currently using this law to get rid of my smoking addiction. I realized that I can repeat the "just one more cigarette" cycle forever and I will still want "just one more cigarette" and in fact I will want it even more and feel even more cravings and emptiness inside. So i have to put it down willingly because it must be put down anyways .

@Synchronicity bro it's you lol. Been watching your channel for a while. Tbh your channel is like actualized. org light edition lol

As I said time is not real from the absolute sense. Thers is no time from absolute sense. Only relative to motion. No motion no time. And since motion is not happening from absolute perspective. Time is not happening from absolute perspective.

Time is change. What is a day ? A full rotation of the earth around itself. That means an hour on earth is different from an hour on Mars because they have different diameter which means it takes longer or shorter to complete a full rotation around itself. So time is not a seperate entity from the spatial dimension as what Newton thought. It's the constant Flux of space itself and it's content. Time is motion itself. And since motion is impossible time is impossible. What? Yeah to move one meter you have to first move half a meter and to move half a meter you have to move 1/4 a meter.. And so on to infinity.. So it's theoritcally impossible for any object to move. Unless if every object moves relative to the other. Which is what the universe is. Everything moving relative to each other..and therfore staying still.

lol truth is everywhere. It's not hiding from you. You are hiding from it.

Take it as a general rule.. Anything you say that "it" doesn't exist.. In fact it does exist precisely because you are desperately trying to deny" it's" existence more than anything else. Because if it's so clear that "it" doesn't exist.. You won't need to negate it's existence. What is the "it" that you are bulidling your case against? .. Something that doesn't exist?.. So why there is a need to say that it doesn't exist?!!!! You don't need to say that aliens don't exist! You are saying that there is only you??? Got news for ya.. I'm real. I exist also. Try later.

@SoonHei lol but I think it's one thing to ramble it and to be aware of it. I'm not aware of that tbh. To me there is just everything. Nothing is just nothing. And the two are not equal in a literal sense. Maybe in a sum total sense tho.

Well.. This is like the ultimate nondual mantra ?.

"You are meditating all the time by existing all the time ". I believe it's Alan watts who said that. But yeah meditation is nothing but being aware and you are aware all the time. So whether you are thinking of something creative and brainstorming concepts or your mind is calm and quiet makes no difference. There is no specific thing that needs to happen in order to meditate. Meditation is just being.

@SoonHei thanks for your input. Oneness is a tricky issue tho. I believe it's a hidden fact that is only true under the surface. Yet when considering the apparent world it's built from nothing but boundaries and separation.

How? What do you mean? I'm actually coming to peace with this impermanence thing. I realized not accepting the impermanent nature of existence is what causes all my addictions and suffering. It first it might be a tough realization but if one can accept it fully and embrace will produce joy beyond description.

What is the reflection and the reflected in your analogy? The way I understand it is any limited form has to be impermanent. That's by the definition of being a limited form. The only thing that can be permanent is the unlimited which is not any thing.

LOL

Everything is exactly what it is. Isn't it so? Yes or no? (with sadhguru voice lol)

I'm sexy and I know it lol

LOL

Yeah well theoritcally speaking if you accept that reality is absolute infinity then yeah we are fucked. But you haven't had direct insight to that neither me. But mathematically speaking if you have an infinite line of numbers.. What's the possibility of finding any number you want on that line? The answer is 100% since it's an infinite line of numbers. If you have an infinite number of worlds (universes).. What's the possibility of finding literally any universe you could imagine? The answer is 100%. So yeah good luck digesting that. See Leo's reaction when he discovered this lol

@Winny just a little hint : Whatever "thing" you find to be yourself is not yourself. Because there is always " something " who is aware of that. It's always going to be an object of experience not the subject. Just like The eye can't see itself and the knife can't cut itself. You can't find yourself. Yourself is ever-hidden because it's ever-present. It's like trying to use a flashlight to look for the source of the light!!. You can't look for what is doing the looking for! Chasing your own tail they say lol

If you read just a little bit of theology you will see the answer is pretty simple. Regardless of your ideas and beliefs about God. The question if god created everything then who created God?. Well you have two possibilities.. Either it's a chain of Gods to infinity each one creating the other which is impossible (infinite regress) because if for there this present moment to happen there was an infinite chain of causes behind it wouldn't ever happen!! Or you are forced to accept that there must be an eternal being (first cause) or the uncaused cause who created everything yet he himself (itself) wasn't created because by it's very nature its not limited by time or space or causality. Why would I accept such radical possibility?? It's not really a choice.. That's the only possibility. You are forced to accept it or otherwise explain how the hell could anything exist at all?

@electroBeam I'm a male btw so I definitely don't want to be with 100% of men not just 99% lol.

0✖️1 = 1➖1 ➕ 2➖2 ➕3➖3 ➕4➖4 ➕ 5➖5.... ♾️ there you go. Zero is the sum total of positive infinity and negative infinity. Otherwise called Absolute infinity. Mathematically speaking. And ofcourse it's one since it's one number.

Well said.

Because all that is real but you have brainwashed yourself that it's not and now you don't know whether it's real or not anymore. You need an awakening to open your eyes and see what's in front of your face. What's in front of your face doesn't give a shit about what you think about it. And that is the definition of "real". Answer this.. What is the only thing that is absolutely true about reality? Literally every single thing might be delusion except that one thing.. What is that thing?

You speek as if these stages are so concrete and physical or objective and not some abstract modeling. You shouldn't expect women to have the same interests as men. We are different by design. Why most women hate football while a lot of men enjoy it? Why are men usually extroverted while women are generally shy? That's just the way it is. It's our natural differences. That's what makes the relationship complete. You shouldn't look for a woman that is similar to you. You should look for someone who can complete you by having something that you are lacking. And vice versa she will find something in you that she is lacking. That's my opinion ofc.
