It’s not like that. The truth is very simple: There’s just no separation of any kind at all. It’s the answer but it’s impenetrable by any individual knowing agent, since that agent itself is not someone separate, since as previously stated, there is no separation. Every single quality or dimension you could think of, including time and space and awareness, can be best conceived of as processes that the absolute appears as. It’s not merely that everything already happened or that everything is happening now in time. Yes there is nothing other than now, but when one says “everything is happening now,” they are very likely misperceiving the truth of that statement because it’s likely that they experience themselves as moving through time — if that’s the case then any understanding of the statement will be relative and not absolute.

Imagine an exchange between 2. A giving of love or some object or some support. That love is first given and then received/taken by the other. However, those 2 actions overlap. The giving by the first and the taking (accepting) of the second are literally not two different things. They are one union of the absolute. And this happens at every single level imaginable. Mother births child who births the mother’s identity as the mother of a/the child. Did the mother birth the child or did the child birth the mother? Without the child there would be no mother by definition. Ultimately it’s the absolute-unknowable that keeps on giving because that’s the only thing it can do, but visualize what it’s like to both give and receive simultaneously (which is of course all that could happen since there is no giving without receiving)... It can’t be experienced/known, can it? Not so fast... It can’t be known as something other than this. It can be intuitively recognized, especially in non-dual states.

And it’s not even something that happens that brings something new. There never were actual stakes.

Yes. But there is also no one playing the game — Except, incomprehensibly, that’s not even a meaningful statement. Saying there never was someone having a life is as insubstantial as every single other thing. There is honestly nothing happening.

This is a difficult one to talk about because it reveals the false non-absolute nature of words. Whenever we speak of a self separate from this, we aren’t actually talking about anything. ? ❤️

I’d keep it open. But anyway, ? Just remember the phrase: Even still, this is it. Don’t actually remember that as a belief. Not that there would actually be somebody believing something. Yeah words fail. Completely.

I feel you. Who is being played by their own mind, exactly? Who feels they need to accept? Isn’t everything already accepted? Otherwise why would it be this? That might be too far away, but it doesn’t have to be. Nothing has to be.

Lol. Wasn’t implying that at all. I’m surprised you’d recognize it as such, which means you almost certainly missed the point.

You apparently dissolve the ego only to find there was actually nothing happening. Isn’t that the most insane possibility? Or maybe... Might that be the case? Btw, this is directly from the absolute. But even “directly from the absolute” is a position... to you. There’s literally no way out because there’s no one imprisoned as an ego. And... this is apparently coming from the absolute tied to a particular body. Nothing makes sense. But the simplicities are just as absolute as anything. So create your own reality, it’s beyond possible. You’re doing it now.

I’m tempted to call this mind games but it could not be resisted by me either, but alas... Here’s the truth as brightly as it can shine in words it seems: #1. there is literally nothing missing, and #2. that #1 implies nothing at all. There is only absolute, and absolutely nothing matters. Nothing. This means nothing, and especially does not mean there’s nothing for you to do. Or not do.

So-called? Leo didn’t invent the states he’s accessed (relatively). Other beings have accessed it. Including this one; mine. The really funny thing: ever accessed the absolute? When you came out of it you actually literally never left it. And I mean literally.

You act like you don't know me When you see me on the street Making like I turn you off When I know you think I'm sweet It don't have to be like that I guess you're insecure If you say what's on your mind I'm an in for sure So I walk a little slower And I try to catch your eye Sometimes it's so hard to see The good things passing by There may never be a sign No flashing neon lights Telling you to make your move Or when the time is right So, Why not (why not) Take a crazy chance Why not (why not) Do a crazy dance If you lose the moment You might lose a lot So, Why not, why not Why not take a crazy chance? Why not take a crazy chance? You always dress in yellow When you want to dress in gold Instead of listening to your heart You do just what you're told You keep waiting where you are But what ya never know Let's just get into your car And go baby go So, Why not (why not) Take a crazy chance Why not (why not) Do a crazy dance If you lose the moment You might lose a lot So, Why not, why not Oh, I could be the one for you Oh ya, Maybe yes, maybe no Oh, It could be the thing to do What I'm saying is you gotta let me know, Oh You'll never get to heaven Or even to L.A. If you don't believe there's a way Why not (why not) Take a star from the sky Why not (why not) Spread your wings and fly It might take a little And it might take a lot But, Why not Why not Why not (take a crazy chance) Take a crazy chance Why not (do a crazy dance) Do a crazy dance If you lose the moment You might lose a lot So, Why not, why not Let's go back, back to the beginning Back to when the earth, the sun, the stars all aligned 'Cause perfect didn't feel so perfect Trying to fit a square into a circle was no life I defy Let the rain fall down and wake my dreams Let it wash away my sanity 'Cause I wanna feel the thunder, I wanna scream Let the rain fall down I'm coming clean I'm coming clean I'm shedding, shedding every color Trying to find a pigment of truth beneath my skin 'Cause different doesn't feel so different And going out is better than always staying in Feel the wind Let the rain fall down and wake my dreams Let it wash away my sanity 'Cause I wanna feel the thunder, I wanna scream Let the rain fall down I'm coming clean I'm coming clean I'm coming clean Let the rain fall, let the rain fall I'm coming Let the rain fall down and wake my dreams Let it wash away my sanity 'Cause I wanna feel the thunder, I wanna scream Let the rain fall down I'm coming clean I'm coming clean I'm coming clean Let the rain fall, let the rain fall, let the rain fall I'm coming clean Let's go back, back to the beginning I can almost see it That dream I'm dreaming But, there's a voice inside my head saying You'll never reach it Every step I'm taking Every move I make feels Lost with no direction My faith is shaking But I, I gotta keep trying Gotta keep my head held high There's always gonna be another mountain I'm always gonna wanna make it move Always gonna be an uphill battle Sometimes I'm gonna have to lose Ain't about how fast I get there Ain't about what's waiting on the other side It's the climb The struggles I'm facing The chances I'm taking Sometimes might knock me down, but No, I'm not breaking I may not know it But these are the moments, that I'm gonna remember most, yeah Just gotta keep going And I, I gotta be strong Just keep pushing on, 'cause There's always gonna be another mountain I'm always gonna wanna make it move Always gonna be an uphill battle Sometimes I'm gonna have to lose Ain't about how fast I get there Ain't about what's waiting on the other side It's the climb Yeah There's always gonna be another mountain I'm always gonna wanna make it move Always gonna be an uphill battle Sometimes you're gonna have to lose Ain't about how fast I get there Ain't about what's waiting on the other side It's the climb Yeah, yeah Keep on moving, keep climbing Keep the faith, baby It's all about, it's all about the climb Keep your faith, keep your faith Whoa

It also depends on what you mean by ego. If you mean the one who knows reality as separate from it, that’s completely a fairy tale, but if you mean the psychophysical entity’s personal desire mechanism, that’s a different story. You can still doubt whether you have perfect pitch or not after enlightenment — you can’t know relative facts absolutely.

Every time you notice you’re not attending to the object, pat yourself on the back (only because you just did the most important gesture of meditation, no big deal...) and then gently and firmly come back to the object. Repeat thousands of times. Eventually you’ll be rock solid on the object and can abandon it. Then inquire: Is that true? Is this true? Who knows this? And don’t assume there’s an end point, just always assume there’s further until, and only until, that’s literally not even possible.

For a spiritual adept, ketamine will be so incredibly much more powerful than cannabis. 5-MeO-DMT, n,n-DMT, and LSD seem to beat it by a bit of a landslide as well, if I'm being honest -- that's not to say an experience on cannabis won't maybe feel like the most intense experience of your life, it's just that it most likely won't transcend experience itself... It's very rare that weed appears to create the entire universe and there's literally no time.

^^ Most definitely. I also recommend the TMI audiobook for when you're on the go -- it's in 2 parts -- doesn't substitute for the book though, which has very helpful visual aides, especially one -- the one that helps you to understand what cessation is. Also (in my opinion the next step after that) various contemplations and inquiries in daily life are where it's at but it may take quite a bit of meditation skill for it to be an effective endeavor. Like imagining everyone's experiences -- where are they? They're this! But you're identified with one of them. Who is not identified with this experience? That's you, which is also everyone else, and there's no one (or thing, or moment) separate from everything. Even the very most subtle movements of materiality or thought are literally being driven by and not separate from the infinite unstoppable and un-hinder-able force of the entire universe... Including the extreme subtlety and stillness that you can apply to this very contemplation technique! (etc) Here's the key: I recommend devising many such contemplative views, and observe HOW they change the way you see reality. See enough of these enough times with enough combined stillness, subtlety, and energy... And see the underlying trend of what appearance, emptiness, and truth actually are.

IME it can produce profound mystical experiences and it’s ultra powerful and maybe the most powerful in a few specific ways... nonetheless, I have a lot of experience with a lot of different compounds and 5-MeO-DMT, LSD-25, and ketamine put everything else including cannabis to shame.

It is very strange even considering this with the memory of the true depths of psychedelic induced God mind but really just pure imagination — but in a rather profound way. Which is not the end of that dream. Since there is no dream.

And who is that "I"? How many oneness experiences have "you" had. What about God-realizations...if you even know what that is... ? This is a full time job. Get real dude. Aside from the possibility it actually happened there, which is like 1 in a billion.

^^ Yes. And... You might experience enlightenment, but then you may or not be aware of the truth that "you being enlightened" is another story. Maybe not though.

It's too much to explain. Uh... Also too simple to get, I'm afraid. You over there IS me over here. Doesn't make sense to you? Then nothing I say will. If I told the actual truth it would not help you because no one can tell the absolute truth. It's just levels... Bentinho Massaro and Rob Burbea gave me the breakthrough apparently. They aren't separate... but yes, in the sense I've indicated, I've spoken the truth.

Weed is alright in the beginning to show you there's something more and you long to live like God lives. Later it becomes a dead end, but before it's a dead end it's actually very powerful.

I've used 500mg 5-MeO in like a week or 2. Weed can be just as powerful. I know it might seem unbelievable, but I'd also add: Only if you can manifest God realization. Though the weed doesn't lead to re-finding truth quite like 5-MeO or LSD or even ketamine, I'll say...

I feel you. Take it easy then. Gain faith in what you naturally know to be true but forgot... I really got a lot of boost from Bentinho Massaro. Do lots of contemplation (once you're ready). My opinion but don't take as instruction: I would absolutely avoid low doses. They often cause more anxiety than higher, Use only standard doses. If it's a bad trip... so what. Once you start having good trips, start ramping up the dose a bit every trip (once every 2 weeks) until you have a god realization. Once that happens you can go back to normal doses and it'll be god realization every time. Eventually you might be able to do it without drugs at all, with some "talent." If your desire for truth isn't burning hot only concerned about truth come hell or heaven... Forget it. Oh and yeah shrooms for me give more bad trips than 5-MeO or LSD. Ketamine can give insanely bad trips but only if you're spiritually fit. LSD and 5-MeO can give insanely bad trips if you're spiritually unfit. I know, it doesn't make sense. Start with LSD-25 or 5-MeO. Ketamine doesn't do shit unless you're "fairly awake" or at least seeming to be getting there -- otherwise it's literally just like a fun lucid dream with absolutely no insight whatsoever.

Ego = That which intends to take the edge off of this. But really, there is literally no ego. The ego is inseparable from: What is assumed yet does not exist. Unless by ego you mean character, which is freedom. But when the first type seems to fall away... Think about how that might happen -- however you're thinking that might happen is just a dream. It literally "falls away" only by virtue of never having been... so nothing changes, and everything changes. I'm laughing reading this but it's true, This is most certainly NOT saying don't practice, just in case you misunderstood.
