the spiritual journey is boring to wisdom (see leo's latest youtube) to kingdom survival to thrival to arrival mind cannot be in the present moment so we need to meditate it into silence the arrival of the kingdom is the beginning of no mind then we good

realization means the seer becoming the seen, another word for it is love where the lover and beloved become one

my fave is

meditation is the journey from lonely to alone to all one namely it is onerous at first but becomes more and more blissful as it removes the veils of conditioning

sex begets spirituality ... it gives you an initial taste of no mind ... it prompts the spiritual quest eventually sex is no longer needed, you have far greater treasure ... you have gone from survive to thrive to arrive

i think it is useful to break 'know' into 3 types, eg take the topic of love -i know about love -i know the ins and outs of love -i know love first is explaining, second is experiencing, third is embodying the mystics are saying set aside the explaining and experiencing in order to reside in the non dual state of embodying in which knowing is ... being i think this helps me understand what it means to know nothing just sharing some thoughts i had today, namaste

forgiveness is a one time thing but resentment hmmm ... will have to be a constant every day thing

e.g.o = eyes generating outside the eyes are the ego, the filter through which you see the world if you have out of body experience, you can look directly at your body and note that you see perfectly well without your eyes so eyes are the conditioning you impose on the world eyes do not give truth ... two people can look at the same dress and see it as a different color https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_dress however from the consciousness of internal spirit we will see the same everything

meditation is bringing balance to life the world wants you million miles an hour chasing dopamine 24 -7 meditation is self love, i am my priority in this life, i will spend time with the most important treasure that i will ever know

mysticism is embracing mystery, relishing that most stuff is unknowable mind is only interested in and capable of the knowable going beyond mind enters the mystical

ego is the buffer zone between you and reality a useful construct when you are stuck in a survive over thrive existence but dispensable when you see it is keeping you from you true nature, wholeness when you drop the ego you see yourself in a different way, you are part of everything no longer apart from everything

7 chapters of spiritual evolvement i i am i am that = thoughts i am that i am (in the biblical sense as referenced by jesus namely transcended abraham = time and space) i am that = no thoughts i am i end of disc 1

my take on descartes = i think because god is therefore i the thinker think an illusory world into existence ... if i put aside said thinking, i would merge with god and see the world as it really is furthermore, i know nothing all knowledge implies a known object, but there is no object which is separate from me, there is only the subject, and so i really do know nothing enlightenment means when projection / knowledge is replaced by reflection / love to know in the biblical sense is to love it was in Eden where Adam first knew Eve namaste x

1. ego is the false belief, i am a separate being ... it is how most of us operate ... shed the ego and oneness is achieved 2. if ego is shed, there is no "my" body any longer, the body is then part of the whole oneness 3. ego not shed, then i like "my" body thank you very much and will attach to it with every fiber of my being

why want anything if you have and are everything ... you need to have an awakening of oneness which can come in many ways

you have been given a few more breaths to see the falseness and realize the true

i know i am i know nothing else since it is impossible if i did know something, there will have to a knower of that, and then that means actually i was kidding, i don't really know who i am

i can define low/high consciousness for MY path but not for yours if i slack off or make some poor decisions or adopt bad lifestyle, i am not living at the consciousness i am capable of and i therefore suffer your path is completely different

first be enlightened last enlightened be

what i would say about meditation is, whatever the mind tells you is a complete lie ... meditation after all is its death sentence this is not for most of course but for me for almost a year i force meditate for 4 hours / day ... and each day becomes little easier and better and richer mind still tells me hey slack off a few days buddy but mostly i do keep on with it i like very much what you said about breathing, this is all i do when i meditate, just breathe as beautifully as i can

here is the vid he was referring you to

so helpful thanks
