Yes, I can see that. I think it does to an extent. Not denying that. I guess it's something like the placebo effect.

Don't be so attached to what you believe yourself to be. Geesh, Life is doing it's thing. Relax and enjoy or don't enjoy the ride. Do what you have to do and what comes naturally. One doesn't have to pretend to be free to be happy. You sound like you're trapped within your own bondage. Nelson Mandela did many years locked up and remained peaceful, Martin Luther spoke his truth knowing it could cost him his life. What are you so afraid of. The egoic battle has already been lost. It can't last forever. Happiness is not the goal, freedom is not the goal, peace is not the goal, the goal is to recognize that you are already that and to let go of trying to figure out life and what it is you think you need to do to become what you already are.

Also, if there's no distinction between anything, where's the distinction between deception and truth or non-deception.

So IOW, since God is everything and the self is a self-deception, there's no self-deception. Make this make sense.

I don't think he was saying they are, but believing they are, is a self-deception.

You're getting to the point where you will realize there is no such thing as Truth. There are no Ultimate Facts and this is all a play on a movie screen. There is only Awareness and there is nothing beyond that. You seem to think there's an objective reality, but there isn't. It's only Awareness and you have never experienced anything outside of that. You say there are things you do not experience but are true. How do you know that. You can only know anything through your awareness. There is something that is aware that you are not experiencing things that are true - or is saying that to be precise. Welcome to the world of illusion, where this is your playground and there are no truths but only what you say is true. The ultimate reality is Awareness and awareness can only be aware, so anything you're aware of is the only reality. Everything else is imagination.

You bring up a valid point. Anything known stems from previous knowledge. We cannot experience anything without the knowledge we have previously learnt. We are operating on the knowledge we have learnt from previous generations and the world. There is no Reality other than what we've been taught. Knowledge separates us from Reality. To know something is to be separate from it. There is no separation so knowledge is illusory and so are experiences.

It's a joke. You know how in Spirituality they say things come to you when you don't care or when you've let go of the desired outcome. He's stopped approaching, so all the wisdom is coming to him now since he doesn't care anymore. Or so he thinks.

He's given up on it that's why he can speak on it so. It's called the power of letting go. Hehe.

lmao😅

I had to say something here. "Laughing and giggling".....what's that, a day at the fair watching scoopydoo and kitty cat cartoons watching little Marky on his scooter and hoping he stops by and show me his weeny. "Adjusting bra and top".....I hope if I'm adjusting my bra and top because it's falling down a guy doesn't walk over then because I'll shoo him away and then get up and go to the ladies room where that activity belongs. Why women don't usually approach is not because they can or can't handle rejection, it's mostly because of instinct. It's just not in their feminine nature. This is why feminine men find it uneasy to approach women. It's the feminine energy at play. It's the same with animals. Notice how they mate or call in their mates. The female animals are also subtle in their approach or cues. A woman approaching a guy doesn't imply that she doesn't respect him nor his opinions, it simply means she made the first move and could be because of a variety of factors depending on the circumstance, environment, her culture, personality, his body language and numerous others. The main thing to look out for when trying to read if a female is trying to get your attention is if she's stroking her hair, is her legs crossed towards you in your direction, subtle eye contact and a brief flirtatious smile. She might also drop something if you're close by with the intention of having you be a gentleman and suggests that you pick it up for her and then make her move if appropriate or hoping you do. Stuff like that, not laughing and giggling and adjusting their bra unless they are high school kids at the circus.

@QandCYou really should write and publish a book. You have great writing skills. Your journey was really a roller coaster ride. Thank God it came to a halt before it spiraled out of control. Your parents were very helpful in that. It's quite a thing that we sometimes have to go through trials and tribulations to see the light. Most people are just coasting through life and get comfortable in their suffering and challenges to the point where they believe that's just how life is supposed to be and get addicted to that. We're all addicted to something somehow because that's just the nature of the feeling of separation when there's none. It's just that drugs and alcohol are more noticeable and more common. I appreciate your transparency and maybe your story touches someone in the right spot to make them realize, no matter what the circumstances are, there's always a light at the end of the tunnel. Good luck to you in your future endeavors.

❤️❤️

When you truly need help and can be more detailed, maybe I can help, but not from such limited answers. I will not put effort into trying to help someone who shows a lack of effort themselves. Good luck.

The world needs more conscious people to interact amongst it. Not to go in seclusion and stare at a wall or their hands. This is the purpose of true Spirituality. If it's at the core, and one has truly embodied their true nature and knows the truth of who they truly are and has awakened to that, there's no situation or circumstances that can rock that boat. You can be amongst people and shine from within and not be affected. In fact, your energy alone can make a positive impact on hundreds or thousands when emitted throughout. The most selfish thing one can do is to not share the love they feel inside with others who may need it. Hoarding your new found energy will only stagnate it and cause it to rust and become static. Go amongst people and shine from within. The Universe will eliminate for you those people who are not aligned with that energy and bring forth the ones that are. They are your mirror and will help you to see where you need to improve to be the next version of yourself. This is how you practice.

I asked you to give more detail on your diet. Sometimes we think we're doing the better things when in actuality welre not. I maybe able to help in this regard.

What you're talking about is still ego/mind. You have not transcended anything. All that seemed to happened is you went from one mode to another. From one State to the next. (My take, of course and not necessarily the case). Nonetheless, what brought you here (your state) in the first place was having to go through all you went through. Now, you're trying to abandon your tools. Saying you don't need them anymore because you think you've arrived somewhere. You are here to celebrate life, not abandon it. There's divinity in everything or nothing at all. All the mundane things can also be celebrated depending on how you look at them. If you see them as what will fulfill you and make you happy, they will seem superficial and mundane; if you see them as an expression of who you are and a way to enjoy life and the people you love and support, then they become accessories and tools and expressions of the One. It is the mind that's making the distinction. There's nothing more important than anything else in the Absolute sense. You are trying to abandon a side of you that you don't like for something that you think is more worthy. Nothing wrong with that because we are individual expressions of the One and are unique in our own way. The problem is when you judge or criticize the "other". All you need do is choose what parts you prefer (without judging the other parts) and focus on that. Expand that with your attention, energy and focus with your awareness. The reason why you're struggling with this and felt the need to make this post is because there's something inside of you that feels abandoned, feels ignored, feels like you're not giving it much attention and I can guess it's the side of you that wants to live. Live amongst people, enjoy nice food, things and places, not living like a hermit and thinking now I've transcended the world and i have no more need for it. You are the world and it's crying out to you to celebrate it in ways that you enjoy but not at the expense of hating the ways you don't.

You have to state what your diet is like. Saying dietary changes isn't enough. Excessive iodine intake can also lead to overstimulation of the thyroid.

Don't put all your eggs in one basket. Variety is the spice of life. If all your intellectual needs were met on forums, you'd disconnect from real life connections and if all your social needs were met in real life, you would miss out on interactions with bots, like @Keryo KoffaHehe

I can tell from your online presence here that plenty of women would find you attractive. I'm not sure what you look like, but that doesn't matter in the grand scheme of things. I'm speaking more about your personality. Not the constant words you use to demean yourself and the insecurities you bring forth in your line of questionings, etc, Take all that away, and your presence here is one of a respectable, kind-hearted gentleman that can attract a woman who will appreciate those qualities in a man. You don't speak down on women, you just express what you've noticed in their tendencies and the type of men you see they usually go for. If you didn't care, you wouldn't care. Anyone who can read/see behind the lines can sense this. I very rarely look at what's been put in front of me, what's staring me in the face visually; I can look pass the obvious and see what's in inside the package and what that package is really made of without too much effort; and with you, i can easily tell you are made of what women, a true woman, would appreciate, love and wish for in a man. It takes a woman of caliber to really appreciate a guy like you. So, I encourage you to stop seeing with your eyes and start seeing with your heart because it knows best. The outside world is filled with chaos and madness and insanity; don't fall for it. It is not the true picture of what really is. What is, is what your mind makes of what you see. You have the power to interpret what you see however you like and that makes up who you are. So, start to see things differently and you will start to see different things.

Yes, you may understand why you may never understand why. The only thing to understand is that it's all one, there's no separation and everything is just an appearance. There are no inequalities, death or suffering in the Absolute sense. The mind is what's creating that because time and space are constructions of the mind. So is the ego.

Are you calling God imperfect. Everything is already perfect. I thought God was Everything.
