Moksha replied to Ketrumi's topic in Spirituality, Consciousness, Awakening, Mysticism, Meditation, God
Just as there are expressions of mental intelligence (general, analytical, verbal) and of physical intelligence (agility, strength, speed), it seems there are expressions of spiritual intelligence (chi and other spiritual powers). All of these expressions magnify our current state of alignment with Consciousness. If we are misaligned, these expressions empower the ego. If we are awake, these expressions empower our presence. With power comes responsibility -

Eckhart Tolle describes manifesting as holding a thought while Conscious, then sending the thought out. You do this a small number of times, not too much. Also, you don't take it too seriously. I haven't felt pulled to do this yet, has anyone else? I do frequently feel that Consciousness is working through me, and ideas are coming through me that I didn't realize before. In a sense, inspiration and Conscious communication are manifestations, in the form of ideas and words. -

Nice Waking up is the direct realization of Consciousness. You experience that you are already abundant. Thoughts and emotions are not you. Your body is not you. You are Consciousness infusing this form, and are Consciousness infusing every other form. Every dream duality has a gravitational pull that leads to suffering. It is the insanity of trying to find permanence in the impermanent. Waking up is the end of suffering. Consciousness is sanity. -

The only truth in any religion is the same truth in all religions. Just because it is the same truth doesn't mean many people realize that truth. It is narrow because it requires dismounting the ego camel in order to fit through it. -
Moksha replied to Intraplanetary's topic in Spirituality, Consciousness, Awakening, Mysticism, Meditation, God
You don't need to manifest anything, because you are sufficient to yourself. You may want to manifest something, perhaps to keep a form going, but happiness doesn't depend on it. Manifestation is the game. As long as you don't take it too seriously, or expect anything permanent to come from it, manifest away. -

Every teacher is ultimately a deception. The good ones can point the way, but they are not the way. -
Moksha replied to jim123's topic in Spirituality, Consciousness, Awakening, Mysticism, Meditation, God
The only truth in any religion is the same truth in all religions. The way is narrow, not because the truth is diverse, but because the truth is directly realized. That only happens when the ego is dissolved, and most people aren't ready for that yet. -

@abrakamowse Defeats the point of the game if the hidden is always unveiled. If Consciousness ever evolves a form capable of complete comprehension, maybe that is when the game starts all over again. -

The biggest mindfuck is realizing that you are looking at yourself through the map, and that there is no map. -
Moksha replied to QandC's topic in Spirituality, Consciousness, Awakening, Mysticism, Meditation, God
@abrakamowse That is true. Consciousness is evolving increasingly complex organisms, through which it is able to manifest more fully. We are already at the point where we can directly realize ourselves as Consciousness. Who knows how Consciousness will manifest through future organisms? Maybe science and spirituality will ultimately converge. Then again, maybe not. Ancient wisdom describes ultimate reality as the eternal mystery. Perhaps it can only be directly realized, and not even superhuman minds will be able to comprehend it. -

@Gesundheit You are correct. I think for some of the responses, it may be a semantic difference rather than a lack of understanding. People are using the word "ego" to describe "personality". The ego is not the personality. It is the illusion of misidentifying with your personality. Once you realize yourself as Consciousness, the illusion of the ego is dissolved. Most people fall back into unconsciousness periodically, and the illusion returns. Eventually some wake up permanently, and the light is on all of the time. You can be enlightened and still have a personality. The ego is gone, but the personality remains, and is actually necessary for form survival. The difference is that you no longer mistake yourself for your personality. You just shine through it. -

I will share this one. I was a teenager on a camping trip with my scout troop. Decided to split off from the group and go exploring. I hiked up into the Rockies, carving a path through the tangle of trees and brush. Suddenly I stopped, and was struck with this realization that I needed to put on my coat and gloves. It was an instant knowing. I had no idea why, but I did it. Literally after pushing through the next tangle, I ran into a live beehive. They swarmed me and I fell to the ground, rolling down the mountainside. When I got back to camp, my face was covered with bee stings, but my coat and gloves had protected everything else. -

@Mikael89 My reading is that it is a limitation of the current theory. He also notes: "When two particles are in such an entangled state, an experimenter can, it turns out, affect the properties of one of the particles, directly and immediately, by choosing to measure some particular corresponding property of the other. It matters not at all that it would require a signal much faster than light to directly effect such an influence." -
Moksha replied to QandC's topic in Spirituality, Consciousness, Awakening, Mysticism, Meditation, God
@abrakamowse Fascinating article. Patterns only emerge on the collective level, individual particles can follow different laws, space itself is coming into and out of existence, and faster-than-light relationships exist, regardless of the amount of space between entangled particles. It feels like the infinite, free expression of Consciousness, which manifests diversely, yet is comprehended collectively. And why is perception causal? Consciousness seems to be directly involved here. I wonder how close we will get to understanding our nature through science. I would love to see a quantum theory of gravity emerge in this lifetime. -

You can be Conscious of who you are, and still engage in life without an ego. As long as you realize who you are, there is no ego. There is still a form, that needs to be honored and taken care of, but the form isn't ultimately who you are. It's ok and even necessary to still have a personality, as long as it is transparent enough that you don't confuse it with yourself. The personality is special. When you shine through it as Consciousness, the light is uniquely beautiful. -
Moksha replied to Chimera's topic in Spirituality, Consciousness, Awakening, Mysticism, Meditation, God
It's more like ego is the illusion that you are your thoughts and feelings. You can have thoughts and feelings without having an ego, you just don't misidentify with them. You are Consciousness itself, experiencing the world through a particular form that has thoughts and feelings, but is not ultimately you. Everything about that form, even its desires and aversions, are not who you really are. The problem with wanting things is that we tend to think they will make us happy. Nothing ever makes you happy for very long. So you are constantly chasing the impossible dream. It's ok to want things, just don't take them too seriously, or expect them to bring you lasting happiness. True happiness arises when you realize the unchanging, beautifully creative Consciousness that you are. -
Moksha replied to Chimera's topic in Spirituality, Consciousness, Awakening, Mysticism, Meditation, God
Welcome, @Chimera Listening to your heart is a good first step. Ask yourself, who is doing the listening? Ego is identification with your thoughts and feelings. You believe that you are those thoughts and feelings. Detaching from your ego is realizing yourself as Consciousness. You are aware of your thoughts and emotions, but you no longer identify with them. Thoughts and emotions have a strong gravitational pull for most of us. The pull is so strong that we get sucked into them, and believe we are them. When you are able to recognize that, and realize yourself as Consciousness, there is suddenly space. Consciously, you can observe your thoughts and emotions, explore them, and watch them come and go, without being dragged into them. You are able to start noticing what is happening, in this moment. You are free to begin accepting whatever is, rather than resisting it. Rather than suffering from the past, or feeling anxious about the future, you are able to simply be. From this place, you are in a position to live your life fully. It is the opposite of feeling dead inside. You live Consciously, with love, happiness, and peace. If you haven't read it yet, I recommend The Power of Now as a very helpful guide -

Manifestation is direct Conscious work. If there is any "you" doing the manifestation, it isn't manifestation. Transparent your personality and play. -

@Gesundheit Works for me Maybe just have the video running, then quickly say what you foresee happening in the moment before it happens. Would be cool if you get it right, and probably would also make you rich. -

@Someone here Why couldn't you write it down, just before it happens? -
Moksha replied to lmfao's topic in Spirituality, Consciousness, Awakening, Mysticism, Meditation, God
I see evolution as Consciousness creating infinite diversity, developing increasingly complex organisms, through which it is increasingly able to realize itself. -
