Someone here

@ricachica hi . Oneness is a facet of reality at the absolute level . The Same thing that is conscious of this present moment in me is whats conscious of this present moment in you . There are actually no solid boundaries between anything in the universe. It's all one soup of isness. Yet it appears as if the world consists of discrete objects. But that is just optical illusion which can be dispelled if you take psychedelics .

All religions consist of theology plus morality.. Or laws. The purpose of a religion (any religion ) is not just to give you some fluffy mantras and chantings/prayers to god /the divine but also to offer a moral code . If all of society becomes homosexual the human species will go extinct. That doesn't say anything about the morality of the act I understand. But I guess it was appropriate for that era .and that is your point right ?

What does this mean ? Give an example.

@Husseinisdoingfine I have found no spiritual tradition better than Advaita Vedanta and Sufisim. Islam has esoteric and exoteric dimensions which I encourage you to study before you judge. I don't call myself a muslim .but I just find it the most " sensible " religion out there . Muhammad was woke af. If he is supposed to channel this Qur’anic chapter its clear he understands the nature of existence. There are some verses in the quran which literally says to kill the unbelievers. That's why there is Islamic terrorism .did Muhammad himself wrote them ? I highly doubt it .

The word nothing is the perfect description. You can call it God or infinity or pure consciousness. These are synonymous. But the problem with the other words is you have preconceived ideas and connotations/mental images for them . Whereas the word nothing doesn't seem to create any mental image in your mind .

Its creepy but I like to watch horrible horror movies before going to bed to generate nightmares . And waking up in the morning. What is odd is I didn't dream that night . It was deep sleep all along .and the entire universe was nothing.

Interesting. I too like to meditate or contemplate in the evening. I'm a night owl. Something in the darkness makes me calm and philosophical hehe . Agree . Because you appear to be a body you believe that you are a body .

Oh! Didn't know about that . Did you hear this from Sadhguru ? I agree though .i didn't do anything to get the insights . Its not a mental conclusion. Its not something i know . Its something i am. the thing.is . Knowing is actually being... Let me explain.... Reading ten thousand books on astronomy explaining what the sun is won't give you a better idea about it than to simply look at the sun.. I mean the mysterious appearance. These insights aren't known. They just hit me in zero distance between me and the Nothing .I am it .not i know It . Have a nice new year bro 💔

The brain of course. Stop being silly

@James123 happy new year buddy . Any plans for the upcoming year so far ma boi ?

@Sugarcoat good shit . The problem is we think there is me here and a world there and me is looking at the world. That's duality. The observer is the observed. And this is meant literally. What you think is a screen right now that is being perceived by you via a medium of perception system (eyes) is actually what you are. You are not looking at the screen right now. You are the screen. And this is the case for any other duality. You and your thoughts are actually one thing. You and your feelings are actually one thing. Meaning there is no you that is feeling feelings.. The feelings are what you are. Evident by when there are no feelings there is no feeler as well. Similarly when there is no perceiver there are no perceptions. And since there is in fact no duality between the perceiver and the perceived.. There is neither a you nor a world out there.. There is one unbroken actuality. And this is it. In this actuality there is actually no "you" and no "other". If you try to pin point where or what exactly is" you" in direct experience and what is or where exactly is "other" you will fail miserably. Because this boundary is completely imaginary. It's all one thing. There is no you right here perceiving a world out there. It's all here. Here is there. You is the world. So what you call other people are literally you. The entire actuality of what's showing up in consciousness right now is you. Not just what you are identified with as your body. The entire field of consciousness is you. From this place there is neither you nor a world as two separate things. There is only what is. And what is.. Is one unbroken actuality with no divisions. If you lose that awareness of clarity and revert back to thinking that I am me right here looking at the world out there.. Then a question might arise about the nature of the relationship between me and the world.. Am I projecting the world? Imagining it like a dream that has no reality outside my own experience? Or is it just there and I m merely perceiving it..?. But the whole question is based on a false sense of self that is separate from the whole. In order to resolve this dilemma you must sit down and kill yourself. Kill this illusory sense of I'm me here somewhere inside this body. There is no self separate from the world. It's just a sense of self. Just a sense. It comes and goes Like all other senses. There is actually some centers in the brain responsible for the sense of the self .. If we shut down those centers in the brain you will go poof. You will be gone as a self. You were never real to begin with. But sure as hell you appear to be real. But if you sit down and try to draw the boundary between you and the world. You will discover you are literally the entire world. You are the totality of what is.

How is this even a question!? How can you compare banging a sexy goddess to wanking your seed out of your meat to some fucking toilet ?

Samsara is Nirvana. Form is formlessness. There is no where to go . If you think you can "spiritualise " your way out of this" gross limited dense physical realm" into some sort of unlimited Disney land of spiritual perfection you can forget about it. What is sought is what's already here . The goal of doing spirituality is not to arrive at a different place from the here & now but to be fully present and content with what is .but you do you.

the law of conservation of energy states that the total energy of an isolated system remains constant..This law means that energy can neither be created nor destroyed..but rather it can only be transformed or transferred from one form to another. For instance ..a block of ice cannot get destroyed..it can be turned into liquid water or steam but it cant be annihilated . another example is that chemical energy is converted to motion energy when a dynamite explodes. If you add up all forms of energy that were released in the explosion it will be the exact decrease of chemical energy in the combustion of the dynamite. Read NDEs . When you die you will first see a replay of your entire life in quick flashes .then your brain will release insane amounts of DMT .and you will enter a DMT trip basically where consciousness will begin to get speed up and you will see some weird ass hallucinations. Then after your brain is completely out of function ..the hallucinations will stop and something from two possibilities will occur .because there isn't a third possibility: 1. Either all of perceptions of any kind will completely disappear and you will enter a state of complete formlessness forever . Or.. 2.another dream/life /experience will magically appear out of nowhere just like how this life appeared. It doesn't matter what are the details of this new experience/lifetime. The only thing that's sure is that there will be consciousness of some sort. I can't think of a third possibility. Sure . Existence is the sum total of all individual experiences. Not a single individual consciousness. I stopped thinking that solipsism is true .

OK so a dream is an objective landscape that exists on its own outside of your imagination? Interesting.

Honestly I'm not sure. What I'm noticing though a theme in your posts recently about "stopping dreaming" or stopping existence. Are you depressed? Why do you want to stop existing forever? I'm not sure either about whether that's possible as well or not . But my reasoning says that since existence exists right now ..then the natural conclusion is it has always existed and will always exist . Even in physics classes we were taught that energy neither can be destroyed nor created .

I would not take Leo's words as a gospel or the ultimate truth unless you can verify them in your direct experience first. He is convinced that reality is imaginary or illusory in some sense or another ..and that's understandable for someone who has hundreds of trips on psychedelics under his belt...And in a sense reality is indeed imaginary. At least some of it . Like nighttime dreams .don't we all agree that dreams are imaginary? The ultimate truth in my opinion though cannot be encapsulated in a quote or a single sentence. If you want the ultimate truth written you will need an infinite sentence. It's neither love nor imagination yet both and none !

That's weak sauce and human chimp spirituality. If you are not conscious of rat alien shemale mikey mouse consciousness then you are not fully awake.

Leo's mumbo-jumbo is infinite 😁

Bro this" no self no free will" stuff was the trend like a decade ago . Now we have alien shemale consciousness. Please catch up

That's so 2018

It was a bad insight . That basically life only gets worse as you grow up . Idk why .but the more I grow up and mature I discover the ugly face of life . We were in absolute heaven when we were children. My anxiety rises in tandem with age . Also experience fatigue and accumulated stress took a toll on me .and like I said the older you get ..it gets worse .

I don't. But one of my purposes in life is getting married and raising kids . Unfortunately I know firmly that it's a long road ahead of me . @Hojo familiar with Emil Cioran ?

Guys i think there is a meta issue happening here .you are trying to figure existence out while overlooking that you are interwoven into it.This is akin and reminded me about the measurement problem in quantum physics. You can't measure the state of a system without "disturbing " the system. More accurately..whenever you measure a system..you are merging with it to create a hybrid system. You can't disentangle the observer from the observed. It's all tangled up in itself lol

@Leo Gura no not at all ..no arguing Leo . If interested give this simple book a quick read ..you can finish it in a day max. https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&rct=j&opi=89978449&url=https://www.nodualidad.info/recursos/pdf-libros/You-were-never-born.pdf&ved=2ahUKEwiIh_nQ88WKAxWegP0HHRvvFu8QFnoECBYQAQ&usg=AOvVaw157QXEPdqWSOtPYjBbo08c
