reality is absolute, but by virtue of a clever special effects trick, a kind of mirror box, it appears relative. you can go as far as possible into the relative, into the division, and you will find a sense of falsehood, of unreality. you can reverse the path and return to unity, and you will find joy, the divisions will disappear, and ultimately you will discover that there never were, that nothing ever happened. a strange trick

The issue is not to silence the mind but to dissolve the barrier of the ego. the ego is supposed to be the thoughts, therefore we deduce that in the absence of thought there is no self. that's not true. it can be the not-self with thoughts and be the self with all its granite solidity in silence. when the self dissolves the mind takes on unlimited depth, and bliss occurs. this happens during meditation, but in my experience the ego has had to be completely vaporized several times before. this can happen with very serious and intensive meditation practices or with 5 meo. If you have not broken the granite block that is the ego, being silent for a minute will not help you much, only as a mental control practice

god is unfathomable depth and suffering is deep and unfathomable

only the river is not going to become the ocean. It's already the ocean right now, it just doesn't realize it. nothing will change, what is, is. it is a simple matter of perspective.

First, what you say he did was normal for any influencer of the time. nobody looked down on you if you captured slaves to castrate them. second, it has wise and profound phrases. in my opinion it is a very basic religion created to handle ignorant people, but who knows... you have to have an open mind. the sufis are very deep and they were muslims

Yes, that emptiness is fullness. It's empty but it is and it's impossible to grasp with the mind. Thanks for asking, explaining about the ego i explain it to myself

Of course, who wants that stupidity if you can have the truth? One minute of truth is better than a life of material success. But it's easy to get lost in the ambition. Happens to me every day

yes yes we are all one, but I want girls and money.

Yes, it's . calling it nothing makes no sense. it is existence. you can feel it, but not define it. it is empty but it is, and you can become the absolute that it is, indescribable. So you are that. More, you can realize how in that moment you are creating yourself. The body, the reality. Because you are everything. If not, who would be? But same time, if your body, the reality, dissapear, you are nothing. Absolute empty, but still existing.

They seem very specific to me. Let's see... do you understand what the ego is? How through language have you created a conceptual mental image, a matrix, and how have you substituted reality for this matrix, and become addicted to it? Do you see your dependence on the concept, on the idea transmitted by others? reality is not conceptual. the concept is a tool to manipulate reality, to survive as a species, but it possesses us like a demon. we are an infinite being of unlimited depth, but we are stuck in survival software. There is nothing I can say about the unlimited, only about the limited: break it.

I would ask him: do you realize what a trap the ego is? If you haven't realized, there's nothing I can tell you. If you have seen that clearly, you have already taken the first fundamental step. now you have a great job to do. your mind is full of barriers, the need for handholds to hold on to. of fear of freedom, of not knowing. you have to break them. How? first, really desiring to be free. wanting to open up to the truth. sit for hours alone in silence. Hit your structures with psychedelics. free yourself from the conceptual. dare with true freedom.

the mind ceases to be a parceled-out field where everything is classified, and becomes a shapeless well where there is room for love, genuine happiness, inspiration and true self-confidence to arise.

meditation, deconstruction of mental patterns, contemplation, psychedelics with the intention of deepening. nothing that is conceptual, nothing that nobody can say. the real is beyond words

I started here because I was attracted to psychedelics to go deeper and here we talk about that. no teaching interests me, only sharing points of view that almost nobody is interested in and reading points of view and experiences of very intelligent and brave people who do not stop at any limit. but it's just a hobby. real work is not translated into words

@Illusory Self maybe your mind is telling you: this is not satisfactory. It's not what you were born for. you can give more. you can be more. you can develop much more. You are a human. go out to battle. give it all. less is misery. just an idea.

in our apparent reality, everything has an origin, a development and an end. we can't think of anything that doesn't follow those rules. but reality is absolute and works according to other laws. it is something alien to us, incomprehensible. but that is the reality. there is no origin, there is no time, there is no limit. it is something normal if you are absolute. the same as it is normal to have a beginning and an end if you are relative. only that the relative is apparent. really, it is absolute. that is, the relative is an illusion. there really is no beginning or end of anything

Yes, the ego is misery. Although I am in business, and I really like the survival game, the expansion of the mind, the opening, make life a beautiful experience. each time it is more like a dance and less like a military parade.

Time is the concept we use to measure change. if there is an apparent change and a witness provided with memory to attest to that change, there is a line of events and apparently, time. for there to be time, the perspective of the subject who measures it must be finite. if it is infinite, there is no time, since really, there is no change. all change is already within infinity

you are too optimistic. In Europe they are practically legal. there are documentaries like "magic medicine" where experiments with mushrooms to cure depression are showed, there are Ayahuasca ceremonies, bufo, erc. but practically no one uses them. people don't dare with them, they don't want to confront themselves. I know several people who have been interested in them because they are addicted or depressed, they have tried once, and never again. people prefer to procrastinate

Psychedelic are very useful for those who want to go deeper, but not so much for those who use them as an evasion. lsd was legal, until people like leary popularized it as a remedy for all ills and it reached the masses. Hoffman's book is interesting, LSD my demon son, or how I invented LSD and what happened in the world afterwards. LSD taken uncontrollably by the generation of the 60's caused the prohibition, since the government saw in it a serious source of instability. maybe with reason. Now can it be legalized? Sure. it is practically legal in half the world, and few people use them. in europe lsd and mushrooms are legal, and i don't know anyone who uses them

first, really wanting to let the ego go. understand as deeply as possible what it is, and decide that your path will not be to strengthen the ego, which is a trap, but to open yourself to existence. is to take one attitude or another. the normal thing is to take the attitude of strengthening the ego, because it seems that in this way we will obtain security, success, improvement. those who can see further see that it is a trap, it leads to unhappiness and disaster, so you make the decision a little blindly, because your intuition, and things we have heard from teachers. then you have to see how to act to follow that path. selfless means, for example, to respect the truth totally. be completely truthful. remove the lie from you. go polishing yourself little by little with meditation, eliminate the compulsion, the evasive behavior. psychedelics help enormously, if you intend to go deeper, to understand yourself. It happens little by little then you get to a point where going beyond the ego ceases to be a promise and becomes everyday reality. you go beyond the defined, the conceptual, and you enter the real. this is life, and the other was survival. when you realize that nothing can come from outside of you, your behavior becomes righteous, selfless. this strengthens the path you have taken, the fear disappears. the ego is a reaction to fear, it is a survival mechanism. lying is fear. fear is very deep and there are many layers. Now the path continues effortlessly, there is no other possible option, and little by little the fear dissolves. and I suppose the time will come when it will completely disappear. or maybe not, but only the trend makes a radical difference

becoming selfless. loosening the barriers of selfishness that keep you imprisoned. ceasing to fear, opening yourself completely to existence.

saying that reality is a dream is something I don't understand. reality is reality, and it is all there is. there is not a dreamer and a dream. the dreamer is the dream, the dream is the dreamer. there is no conductor of the orchestra. it is the orchestra conducting itself. and calling it imaginary is meaningless as there is nothing else to compare it to

God don't come from anything, is everything. concretely it is you, the reality, which is an unfathomable well. Do you think reality is dumb or smart? look around you for the answer

I think almost all spiritual teachers say that you are god. you are consciousness, existence, reality, and there is only one, and that one is infinite. So what would you be but God? no current spiritual teacher says that there is a you and a separate god. where is the difference that is spoken here about teachers? once you transcend the ego, you are existence itself, eternal and limitless. That what every spiritual teacher affirm. The different teaching is about how to realize, how to be enlightened, but there are no difference about if you are god or not. You are, reality is limitless, so you are the reality aka god. Obvious
