Someone here

LOL

@allislove I don't get your answer. So basically you are saying I will immediately find myself in another body?

Hope and acceptance. If you don't have any hope or acceptance in your life.. That's it you are done.

I mean what I said dude lol. This bag of flesh and bone will soon be six feets under the ground.. Then what? This body is eternal?? ?

Thanks. That's a honest answer.

Indeed it's always now. But some nows are different from other nows. Is the now after death gonna be colorful like this now or a purely empty now??

Why should it be the same?

Because what is the ground for that? OK we are just a bunch of atoms bouncing around in a three dimensional box called the universe under certain physical laws like a computer code... But you see the problem here? Where did all that stuff come from? Why there is laws? Why there is matter? Why there is three dimensions (actually four) and not more? Why there is something rather than nothing? .. It's the same problem with simulation theory.. (what makes you sure we aren't inside a video game) well we can be inside a video game.. Nothing impossible about it.. But it's just that's not the rock bottom of reality..the" materialist universe " has to be grounded in something else and that something else has to be grounded in something else etc so ultimately it's all grounded in what??? In nothing! . Think about a video game character that is convinced" I'm just a video game character in a virtual world made of pixels "..that's not" wrong " but what the video game characters would be missing that there is a whole different world" our world " that is the ground for that virtual world. Same thing here.. If we are just material atoms in a material world.. That might be true.. But don't make the mistake of thinking that's rock bottom of reality and there is nothing beyond that. There is always more.

Just realize that you are. You just are. You are not this or that.. You just are. Don't expect an answer to the question "who am I"? Whatever answer is wrong. Is not who you are. What you are is not an answer. Athere is no need to question it. You are already what you are! You cannot not be what you are! "What you seek is so near you that there is no place for a way " - Nisargadatta maharaj

There is nothing to do and nowhere to go. Whatever you do and wherever you go you will be back right here with this. Nothing. The body is inside awareness. Awareness is not inside the body. Take a look.

@WHO IS perhaps if you understand there is nothing to understand @arlin you don't have free will because you don't exist. The small self that is. Is an illusion. It's just a thought. A thought can't be the source of thoughts! However the true self which is who you really are has nothing to do with all that nonsense.. It's just pure detached awareness.

@Javfly33 freedom so free that it's free from freedom. Perfection so perfect that it's perfect with imperfection?

Let go and let the decision just happen naturally. "You" are not making it anyways.

I had a very weird experience yesterday. Was meditating and focusing on the distinction between awareness and thoughts as they arise.. Suddenly all the boundaries dissolved and there was just one present moment like a seamless of seemingly distinct forms just happening to no one. There really is no me over here and the world over there.. If awareness gets intensified to a certain degree there is no longer a distinction between you and a cat or a a dog or a coffee table. Isn't it weird that you can point to any object in existence but you can't point to yourself? Because you are infinite being. Infinite just means not limited to this or that. So you might think you should act in a certain way or dress in a certain way.. That's not true.. There is no "shoulds" out there.. Furthermore you are infinite being and can't be limited to being a certain way and that's why no matter what one does he won't be safe from self-judgment and other's judgments as well. The only way out is to realize that boundless self that is perfectly okay with whatever the fuck appears to be apearing in the nowhere field that is itself!

It all depends on what do you think "awakening" is. You can think of it in such a way that makes no one awake (Leo style). Or you can think of it in such a way that makes everyone awake (advaita style). But at the end there is no one awake because there is no one so awakening is all that is left.

It's called deja vu. Can happen also in the waking state but in reverse. Ever saw something and was like "damn I swear I saw this exact same event before.. I swear I could tell this personI Is gonna say these exact words right now..." and sure enough it happens. There is no scientific or materialistic explanation for it. Mostly it is considered a paranormal phenomenon and people attribute it to the nature of soul being not bound by space And time and it can travel and see something from the future or the past.. But idk

Reality is this.

the human life in a nutshell is nothing but a doomed to fail helpless attempt to freeze formlessness into form and to avoid dissolving into infinity.

@Arzack I will just assume you have no idea what you are talking about reincarnation and just parroting Buddhist beliefs.

And what does that have to do with reincarnation? I asked you how do you know reincarnation is real.. You said you read about it in "spiritual material"..that's like a Christian saying hell is real because it is written in the Bible!

Reading thousands of astronomy pages that explains what the sun is won't give you a better idea about what it is than looking at it.

Yeah so these are just stories that you got from spiritual books etc.. None of that is verified as an experiential facts in your own life?

And how do you know any of this? Also do you realize how it is almost impossible to have a specific definition for any of these terms?
