Moksha

By creating a finite structure, you are cutting that structure out of infinity. It's an illusion of scale. If I arbitrarily define the tiniest cube as being dimensionally 1 foot, I am excluding all of the smaller cubes I could have defined instead. The definition itself is completely arbitrary. Definition is the illusion. There is no ultimate definition, only unity.

"Visualization trick"...kinda my point Anything can be artificially defined by scale, then infinitely subdivided. That doesn't mean the artificial definition is real. You're just arbitrarily cutting it out of infinity, then acting surprised when you get infinity out of it By definition, something with an infinite value cannot be measured.

We choose to survive because evolution selected us for making that choice. Organisms that choose not to survive tend to get their wish.

The apple is the illusion. It is not really a solid object. It is a miniscule amount of matter, mostly held together by electron wave energy. We can agree to call it "one apple", but in the ultimate sense the apple and everything else is divisible. The only nothing that cannot be divided is nothing itself.

Even the idea of finity in length is an illusion. At what finite point does the line start, and at what finite point does it stop? The length cannot be ultimately defined, because the points cannot be defined. All we're talking about is dividing infinity by infinity, which is undefined.

I wonder which is greater, the fear of death or the fear of uncertainty? Fear is the feeling that something bad is going to happen to you in the future. When you realize there is no future, only the present moment, fear dissolves. Easier said than done, I know. The answer is simple: accept what is instead of struggling against it. Accepting reality doesn't mean refusing to change it. If a lion walks into the room, you probably want to GTFO, but you can only do that if you aren't frozen in fear.

Do you believe the starting point of any line is finite? Use the finest pencil on the planet, and that apparent starting point can still be subdivided, infinitely. How small is the smallest starting point? Any word can be subdivided into letters, which in turn can be subdivided into the lines used to create them, which (see above). Infinity is awesome

No doubt. Steer clear of concepts, which are always BS. Look for the light behind the concepts, which is all that there is

@Mvrs Is wisdom defined by consensus, or is it spiritual sight of what really is? Consciousness itself is wisdom, and it doesn't depend on consensus or anything else.

What is a single cubic unit? Can you name anything that is actually finite, i.e., indivisible?

You can eliminate the illusion of the ego by decapitating someone. That isn't enlightenment. Enlightenment is wisdom, not knowledge. It is spiritual seeing, which is only possible to the degree you dissolve the bonds that keep you here in the first place.

Finite amount of space? How many moments are in a minute?

Finity is an illusion. Even the space between the first two letters of your post is infinitely divisible.

I have yet to read anything completely devoid of light. Creativity itself is an expression of light

Scriptures are different windows in the same house. They are various sizes and shapes. It is the same light shining through all of them.

@Endangered-EGO Who is "I"? Is it possible "you" aren't making a choice at all?

Something cannot be aware of itself. Awareness requires a higher order. Only nothing can be aware of itself, which is exactly what consciousness is.

@zeroISinfinity Except he would be a plagiarist, since god has no gender

Yes I do

I would create spacetime and enjoy manifesting myself through a myriad of dream forms. Oh wait...

Great to hear, Bittu. It sounds like you've realized a lot of personal growth.

Dark Night of the Soul = Closing your eyes to what is not. Enlightenment = Opening your eyes to what is.

We are all Judas, and we are all Jesus. Some of us just haven't realized it yet.

Yes, and dying in the potter's field that I bought with the blood money.

Yes. I also remember coming down from the cross and ascending to life.
