Ever heard of the "fine tuining of the universe "? Why there are laws of physics? What makes the planets orbit around the sun In a smooth way and not deviate from it's path by an inch ? Do you live your life as if it has no purpose? Why do you eat,shit ,and fuck ? Actually it's the other way around ..your human life is purposeless .ant's life is purposeless .you crush them with your feet everyday and nothing seems to change in the big picture. So from this i conclude that the purpose of the totality of reality is not affected nor related in any way with the munituia of our individual existence. -

Yup .so what are you gonna do about it ? There is no "finite " purpose. Like you just die and go to heaven and St.peter sends you to chat with Jesus and stuff like that "This is also metaphorical": Its more like God wants everything to be materialised. Everything was an idea in gods mind ..but God is alone forever and is creator by its own nature .that's just what it is. God doesn't create out of obligation..it creates endlessly because its literally pure creativity. And pure creativity is its own purpose. Think back when you were a child and you enjoyed creating castles from sands In the beach .because you didn't have ego back then. Only the ego is the problem. -

Yes of ofcourse . Reading gazillion pages of spiritual literature is NOT a substitute for "the real thing ". Go after a nondual awakening. There are many ways . But I'd start with getting rid of the ego . As you know ego =self-bias . And love =totally unbiased . So actually the only thing stopping you from realizing that everything is love is the judgments of the ego and the categorization of everything into good vs bad . If you destroy your ego you will see that everything is OK and perfect just the way it is . You need to question that assumption. First acknowledge that you don't really know . Then go from there . Do you have a PS device and play video games? Can you say the designer of the video game doesn't exist or has no intention behind creating the game ? Just because you don't understand the purpose of the design doesn't mean the design is purposeless . -

@Sugarcoat That's a question I've struggled with a lot .but basically as Leo said you need awakening. The alternative Is to observe the deep exquisite beauty of existence. Look at nature..everything is a masterpiece like musical symphony. Meditation in nature will answer your question. Now getting to the tricky part..its not all sunshine and rainbows..you might ask "well what about the diseases and pain and wars and cruelty in the world? Is that also love ?" To see the ugly shit you experience in life as love you need to see the bigger picture. What is God up to in the ultimate end ? And according to all spiritual traditions its the greater Good for all of creation . That's why God created anything at all . It did that out of Its indiscriminate unconditional love for everything and every form. Profound question btw. Get a sheet of paper and a pen and contemplate it . -

Enlightenment is total surrender to existence. You become like a feather in the winds of God. The ego dies ..and reality/god/truth/being takes the lead . -

Someone here replied to r0ckyreed's topic in Spirituality, Consciousness, Awakening, Mysticism, Meditation, God
You answered your own question. The rest is conceptualizing. Reality as you personally know it doesn't exist for anyone else in exactly the same way. The only reality you experience is your own perception of reality. This is true of everyone of us. No other person in existence experiences the same perception of reality. Therefore.. WE don't have ONE truly shared perceptual reality that may or may not be real. Real for you is what you are experiencing now. Real for me is what I am experiencing now. When you are dreaming..that dream has more reality than the waking state ....and thus more reality experientially for you than the external world. -

@Water by the River I don't know you personally (yet ) but I would enjoy smoking LM blue ™ with you while blabbering about metaphysical bullshit. -
Someone here replied to r0ckyreed's topic in Spirituality, Consciousness, Awakening, Mysticism, Meditation, God
No. Objective reality is intertwined with consciousness. Nothing can happen outside of a conscious mind. It's like asking..if a murder happens in my dream ..does it also happen without the dream? -
Someone here replied to r0ckyreed's topic in Spirituality, Consciousness, Awakening, Mysticism, Meditation, God
You are asking the same question. So I will have to give you the same answer: You are conflating the truthfulness or truth value with the practicality of a thing . if a tree falls In the woods and no one was there to perceive it ..does it make a sound ? -
Someone here replied to Elshaddai's topic in Spirituality, Consciousness, Awakening, Mysticism, Meditation, God
@Elshaddai why are you an atheist? You need to question your atheistic worldview seriously. Do you think the universe just came to existence by pure chance or coincidence? Its like saying there is a video game which has no designer or developer..it just built itself from nothing . You think this whole miraculous existence..the galaxies...the sun ..the stars ..all of the universe just jumped into being without a cause? Islamic prayer is the most powerful spiritual practice you can do imo. Google it or watch Mecca live channel and watch Muslims performing it . It just puts you into a marvellous connection with God or the highest source very very powerfully. If it doesn't resonate with you ..then try classic meditation. Good luck ! -

When you watch a movie in a TV screen and try to grab the characters in the movie with your hands ..what do you actually end up grabbing? The screen. The movie images are superimposed on the screen. The screen can display something..anything..or it can display nothing .can be turned on or off .that's consciousness or existence. Before you were born or when you are in deep sleep the screen is turned off..no movie. When you are in the waking state..the screen is turned on. So in both cases the screen exists. But in both cases the images of the movie are not necessarily there .so that means the screen is more fundamental and prior to the movie . And the screen is consciousness. Consciousness is prior to form. And form cannot exist without consciousness. -

@r0ckyreed it is not up to you to trust direct experience..you have no other choice. When your mind goes skeptical of direct experience. ..and Why is direct experience the criteria for truth? Because based on direct experience one can only ever be certain of the content of his own experience. And cannot validate or invalidate the existence of a third person objective world behind the surface of appearance. Point one thing.. Just one fucking thing that exists outside of your direct experience right now.. You might say "well the pyramids in Egypt they exist there and they are not in my direct experience now".. No! There is no pyramids and no Egypt and no "there".. All that exists in actuality right this moment is whatever you are experiencing right now + the belief or ideas that there is something existing outside of that which is actually occurring (the belief) inside of that. Take out your hand and look at it.. And recognize that your hands are actual. They are Real. They are the absolute Truth. And recognize that all your concepts about Truth in your minds(thoughts) are not the Truth. Compare all your thoughts and concepts with the sensation of your hands.. Notice that your hands are Truth. While all your thoughts (without exception) are nonsense. TRUTH VS FALSEHOODS exist only on the level of thoughts.. Where there is relative truth. You could say some thoughts are more "true" then others depending on how accurate they represent reality. Absolute Truth is simply being. Nothing too fancy about it. And you are directly conscious of being right now. That's why in neo advaita they teach that you are already enlightened. there is a distinction between relative truth and relative falsehood which exists only in the mind. At the level of being.. There is no falsehood. Everything is absolute Truth. For example... 1+1=3 is falsehood at the relative level of meaning and symbols. Yet the very being of the equation (it's very existence) is absolute Truth. -

Here it is ..a quote from silence of the heart by Robert Adams..life changing book. Must read if you care about awakening -

@LSD-Rumi which "deeds "? His unbreakable eye contact ? -
Someone here replied to A Fellow Lighter's topic in Spirituality, Consciousness, Awakening, Mysticism, Meditation, God
Robert Adams uses the analogy of a TV screen and a movie . The TV screen is pure consciousness. It's pure indiscriminate spacious void . The movie is like the content of existence. Humans..cats..trees ..insects ..cars ..etc the screen can display ANYTHING. Horror movies ..comedy..porn movies etc anything..but it's not touched or affected by the content . Identify with the screen and you resolve all suffering because suffering is in the content. And you are the screen. Which doesn't move .unlike the images of the movie . -

Leo ..let me on in something here ..in your solipsism video you said a hugh chunk of contradictions ..sometimes you say ."i am you " and the other one you said "i " the listener is the only conscious thing in reality. So which one is it? panpsychism "there is consciousness in all things and the same thing looking through my eyes is looking through your eyes ?)...or as in all that can be known is my mind..? Are you open that you can't know if others are real? Why do you insist that others are unreal? Why not be be humble and say i got no clue ? -

@Leo Gura appealing to authority sir. And talking about "serious philosophy "? 😏 -
Someone here replied to Psychedelic seeker's topic in Spirituality, Consciousness, Awakening, Mysticism, Meditation, God
You miss the point ...why should you give a fuck about solipsism in the first place ? Yeah sure you've heard Leo talking about it ad nauseam..so fucking what ? Go travel the world ..meet new people..experience different cuisine etc..life is more mysterious than any ism by fold of billion billions . Its like these incel guys ..there is so much to life than sex..likewise there is so much to life than solips-fucking-ism . -
Someone here replied to Psychedelic seeker's topic in Spirituality, Consciousness, Awakening, Mysticism, Meditation, God
Yes so both solipsism and naive realism don't capture reality. Because the map is not the territory. Any "ism" is not the whole truth . Your absolute truth is literally different from my absolute truth even though they are both absolute! -
Someone here replied to Psychedelic seeker's topic in Spirituality, Consciousness, Awakening, Mysticism, Meditation, God
Here's a thought experiment.. What would happen if you've never in your entire life even heard of solipsism? Would you still be puzzled by this existential dilemma? Nahm used to say "you can't experience what you are not focusing on ". The more you think about solipsism the more mindfucky it gets because you literally cannot prove 100% that there is a world behind the walls of your house . So again..just pretend that you've never even heard of solipsism and it won't bother you. Its the same thought experiment that people like Richard Dawkins do when they try to debunk religion and they say "if a child was born in a island and never heard of any religion..would he believe in any religion or any god "? -
Someone here replied to Psychedelic seeker's topic in Spirituality, Consciousness, Awakening, Mysticism, Meditation, God
Why not my dude ? Do you seriously want to convince me that in your daily life you regard objects as unreal as soon as they disappear from your perception? Theifs will empty your wallet that way . Get real .and strike some balance between relative truth vs absolute truth . You have a great video called relative vs absolute truth . Go watch it .its very good -
Someone here replied to Psychedelic seeker's topic in Spirituality, Consciousness, Awakening, Mysticism, Meditation, God
There is no difference between illusory vs Real. As long as my mom appears real in front of my eyes ..then she is real . There is no difference between the Leo I say on my IPhone and the Leo I see in my dreams . That's what nonduality means .the collapsing of the duality between real vs illusory must break down at the end . Deep down I know that I'm the only one here . But it's just more beneficial pragmatically speaking to deal with others as real as long as they "appear " real. So solipsism is true ..but useless.
