I wonder if it's within God's infinite intelligence to create free will?

Thank you everyone. I found these post's very interesting.

A tiger might play with his pray. Smelling the delicious rabbit, then eat him slowly. : ) Another way to look at it, is out of love the whole universe was created. It could not even exist at all unless you have up and down. "When good happens good, when bad happens good" "In all things give thanks" We deside together what is good and bad.

Awesome!

I once seen, "it's all a lie!" That's how my mind processed it. The illusion was all a big lie! I suppose this was the fruit Eve eat in the garden. Currently I see the whole universe as a fractal, a simple mathematical equation that spun out of intelligent nothingness, like you see in a vacuum where quantum particles come into existence. A simple perfect mathematical formula that keeps repeating over and over creates everything in our universe. This is the blessing! All the pain and suffering, happiness and joy, had to be this way for it to work. There is no real grace except the grace of existence itself. Grace permeates this world.

@Leo Gura But Leo! how come you don't consider yourself Enlightened after so many doses of DMT?

Nothing is going against the Bible on this forum.

Not sure if this is Enlightenment but very pretty.

Why do any practices and do only DMT? What would happen if you gave 5 meo-Dmt to someone who wasn't seeking Enlightenment? Many Enlightened teachers say not to use drugs.

Your probably correct. I'm planning on living a very long time in this body! Plus, I'm immortal and timeless it can take forever. Ego happy : ) I'm not sure but I don't think those guys had 5 meo-DMT : )

I don't consider myself a particularly fearful person, but on reflection I'm racked full of fear. Fear of getting some deliberating condition, like a stroke. I would rather die. Fear of misleading someone down the wrong path. Like making a video that turns out wrong. Fear of coming to the end of my life and seeing I messed up, believed the wrong thing, like I should have gone for the money, etc. I hang on on a roller coaster, I need to let go one day! ,

I don't mind doing the work if the outcome is a high probability of success. Doing work with questionable outcome, for me is hard to get motivated. You know Dr David Hawkins , who I use to study A LOT use to say, "many meditators, few Enlightened" Yes, after all these years I still feel like a beginner.

My last teacher like teaching the 112 sutras of Vijñāna Bhairava Tantra. He said there was nothing more added except the Headless Way. I guess he didn't know about DMT! He had me meditate 10 hours a day and a bunch of other stuff. I had a quick out of body experience working with him and during one of the meditations felt this presence in the room, felt like God. He said that was me. I understand having to understand the experience afterwards. But with the sutras one doesn't need a formal meditation practice. I see it kind of like prayer, it's not the same when you pray when you feel like it and doing it as a practice. Thanks for the replies. It has added some clarity but for some reason I'm not jumping up and down thanking my good fortune for the discovery. I hesitate. The ancient Masters were profound and subtle. Their wisdom was unfathomable. There is no way to describe it; all we can describe is their appearance. They were careful as someone crossing an iced-over stream. Alert as a warrior in enemy territory. Courteous as a guest. Fluid as melting ice. Shapeable as a block of wood. Receptive as a valley. Clear as a glass of water. Do you have the patience to wait till your mud settles and the water is clear? Can you remain unmoving till the right action arises by itself? The Master doesn't seek fulfillment. Not seeking, not expecting, she is present, and can welcome all things. ~The Tao Te Ching by Lao Tzu Translated by Stephen Mitchell

You think the insect aliens with eat me? : )

@JosephKnecht The way I understand it is that one just needs to keep doing it over and over. One time you get a glimps with repeated doses one gets permanent Enlightenment. @JosephKnecht Okay @JosephKnecht Well there's a lot of false information on this forum then. : )

Karma is all the circumstances you were born into this world with. If you were born poor, that is your karma. If you were born sick that is your karma. If you had Enlighten parents you had some "good" karma. : ) There is no one sitting in heaven rewarding for good deeds. You are like a vibration, like a tuning fork. But at the same time exist were random things came happen to a certain extent. "It rains on the just and the unjust"

@allislove ?

Anyway, Leo is you and all the demons and angels and grace too ...all of it is you anyway. So what is all the fuss about? : ) Some songs make us happy, some sad etc.

@Leo Gura Relative answers are important for the ego sometimes, don't you think?

God's Grace is giving to all equally.

Everything is perfect. Nothing is out of order. Took awhile for me to assimilate it. I understand it as some kind of web, like those grids you see showing how gravity works but not exactly. Here is a quote that seems to understand it: As it acts in the world, the Tao is like the bending of a bow. The top is bent downward; the bottom is bent up. It adjusts excess and deficiency so that there is perfect balance. It takes from what is too much and give to what isn't enough. Those who try to control, who use force to protect their power, go against the direction of the Tao. They take from those who don't have enough and give to those who have far too much. The Master can keep giving because there is no end to her wealth. She acts without expectation, succeeds without taking credit, and doesn't think that she is better than anyone else. ~The Tao Te Ching by Lao Tzu Translated by Stephen Mitchell

Leo doesn't have a flaw. He is prefect!

I'm a whole food plant based vegan. So what they eat meat! A lot of animals are able to have a life because we eat them. What one eats has nothing to do with spirituality. Just drop the judgement and try to love them best you can. Do you think you are better than them? The ego likes thinking it's better than others.
