You could say so. This is an infinite, timeless, spaceless, boundless energy... Which isn’t moving. This is absolutely infinite. This does not experience longing as if separate from “it.” This IS longing. This has no need or want, and this is all there is, so no apparent “one” can want this. This imagines what this would be like if only this could want “something else” — this doesn’t want something else, as this is infinitely pristine innocent perfection, so this can appear as the imagination that there’s a being who experiences individuality — to get around that roadblock, so to speak. That still means this has no need or want (i.e. for something else) — this IS nothing being everything — everything... including the apparent wanting of something else. So this doesn’t experience wanting something else as if separate from “it,” this IS what apparently happens; everything, including an apparent person’s experience of wanting something else.

Longing is inseparable from what apparently happens, with no exceptions. Hence, unconditional love. But of course, no one does the longing: In alignment with exactly what you describe... Who would? If THIS wants nothing at all, and THIS is all there is, then clearly, even simply logically, no one and no thing can want THIS. This doesn’t need anything, including this itself. This is simply “longing.” Careful though... This is NOT experiencing longing as if separate from longing, this IS longing. To understand this is to understand that this cannot be understood. To understand this fully is to understand that this cannot be understood even a single bit.

My previous comment (“poem”) was not serious at all btw. In this one, the ineffable is effed: What seems to often come up now: this boundless, timeless, infinite energy — the infinite — is not moving. There is, literally, nowhere else, nothing else, no one else, and no one here. Just this obviously ungraspable, unbounded, infinite (literally...infinite), spaceless, timeless energy — or if you like, nondual Awareness, or unconditional love, or just... this. What you apparently see is all that isn’t you — everything. What’s left? Nothing. As it turns out, there’s no you to see... You are no-thing, pretending to be some-thing... How? By imagining what it would be like if it were looking for — IF ONLY it could look for — something else. Oh...the longing...done by no one... The longing is inseparable from what apparently happens. (i.e. it isn’t actually an “it,” and there is no actual “looking for something else,” as “it” is bathing in, and being, all there is.) Ta-da! ? (i.e. the underlined portion is the ‘ta-da!’ referred to)

Another pointer: It’s just a fun poem. Has a 5-ish beat — every single line. ? ^^ There is no belief. No belief needed. What is not needed is not to be true. No thing is needed, so no thing is true. No thing’s everything, so everything’s true.

@outlandish Good points! However: I for one think getting rid of the PM system, or even altering it in any way, would be a virtually guaranteed net negative.

That’s basically exactly what I said later in the very same comment you took this from. Edit: In the very next sentence, no less! ? Amateurs... (? absolutely joking!)

You’re absolutely correct! He was just widening the already open door, in a sense. But there’s a bit of a catch: the recognition is the end of better or worse. Realizing there’s nowhere else is the end of need. But it’s not the satisfaction of need. The door is always open. There’s already only paradise, so it doesn’t matter if the door is passed through. It’s only a suggestion. Albeit a suggestion with no practical use — but therein lies its purity... i.e. there’s no one here giving anything to someone over there, because here and there, and “you and I,” are not recognized as separate, or even as things at all. Giving is receiving, but there are no such things as giving and receiving. So too, caring is judging; doubt is certainty. There is no one, only this, which is not a thing — no-thing is not graspable.

Not coming at you from a contradictory perspective in any sense (important), only a transcendent one: In a sense, what your “higher self” (God; which isn’t actually real but IS real at this level) imagines to be real, IS real. So Jesus (as a source of profundity and power) is literally real... for you. Perhaps contemplate that if you don’t get it in one reading. But to be more precise, there isn’t actually anything to get.

When it is and isn’t seen that there never was an individual, there’s no individual to fall away ❤️

Yeah... you’re right, in fact there’s literally no real difference ? Guess I’d better just stay silent! Lol jk it’s just a play. Who would “stay silent,” anyway? ?

Yeah, you are...

Perfect

Lol nice poetry. Beware of devilry. "God" has no enemy. Feel free to ignore this apparent call-out. I don't know anything. Continue as you are. Or not.

There's nothing there to deconstruct! It's just nothing appearing as a word.

Yep. So to with cause and effect -- when you cease to imagine them to be real (higher level of imagination), they aren't real.

Awakening “practice” is nothing more than pointing out the obvious. Why do you think noting works so well? ? The awakened state is indescribable, not because of how “amazing” it is, but simply because of how immediate it is.

There's no need for that level of complication. 1. Deconstruct. 2. Deconstruct the deconstructor. That's it. Further complication is just that. For instance: 1. Turn away from experience by turning toward the knower of whatever arises until nothing arises, and then turn towards the one who knows nothing arises. 2. Turn away from the experience of doing step 1. Or stop "doing nothing." Not prescriptive. Feel free to not do that.

There's no God, but all there is, is God. There's no me, no you, no computer, no Earth, no actualized.org, no Leo, no universe, no space, no time, no Awareness (or all there is, is Awareness), no Liberation (or all there is, is Liberation), certainly no time, no future, no past, no present moment... Just nothing being everything. And apparently an illusion of knowing making sense of the unknowable...unsuccessfully. Knowing everything is knowing nothing. Doesn't matter what route you take, as there's no route. You do not want deconstruction, but if you can't stand not to do it, well... This is an organic authentic innocent play, with no one doing it; there's no life, only wholeness.

Haphazard obsessive all-day automatic contemplation + sheer dumb luck ^^ The "answer" It isn't something that really happens though -- that's what deconstruction "reveals." Problem is...there's no one left to know anything about it! You are left clueless at best. That "you are" just simply turns out to be false -- what can anyone do with that? Beautifully unceremonious. As words are spoken they're heard -- you can no longer speak.

There's no one here who's conscious! And there isn't really even God! Unless you want to call God Heaven. There is Heaven -- it's all there is. But I don't know anything about Heaven. Heaven is just all there is. By the way, I'm not talking to you right now -- there is apparent speaking to and from the void!

Not enlightenment-related at all. Seemingly probabilistically connected, but only at first glance.

I've done it. There is no such thing as a psychedelic drug, silly... See?

It's not a process. It's a flash of death which can't be remembered or forgotten. There isn't anyone anywhere and there never has been. There's just nothing, which is everything.

ALL suffering comes to an end.

Well even here you could say there's apparent awareness, but there's no one anywhere who "has" awareness/consciousness.
