That sounds harsh. Yeah, try the video, i think it might open you up to a different way of being with life.

How are spirit guides controlling you ? Of course you can meditate on your own. But that guided exercise video of Leo will really ground you in direct experience if you go with it.

How are you working against the system ?

It's not like Rupert's stuff. Try it.

Is it really possible to say "I am" God. Remove "I am". Just God.

I never used the word states

I don't think I ever said this reality is an illusion and there is another reality that is more real. "Right now is the reality" Yes I think we still have miscommunication with the separate self thing. (certain aspects have fallen away here) I like this video by Leo, radical nonduality basically says the same. All there is is This/God, remove all backstories.

Thanks, as I said there might be a difference in definitions.

I think we might be saying the same thing in different ways

I'm not exactly sure what you mean by "the issue is reality and the system" ? Have you watched this video by Leo ? (This is what I meant by direct experience.)

I can see now that ethnic cleansing might be the more appropriate term. (Why do you think though that the international association for genocide studies deemed this to be a genocide ? Do they have some anti Israel bias ?)

@Breakingthewall I'm curious, what kind of a path did you follow, I noticed you mentioned Kali. Do you have more of a Vedanta background ?

Yeah I guess we have different definitions for the separate self thing. But I can't deny my experience, and I respect yours too.

Yeah, I think they use to call Afrikaans "kitchen Dutch". Somehow we find Dutch hilarious, sounds very posh to us. We love the way you guys mix Dutch and English.

South Africa

Can you pinpoint the moments you decided to have these thoughts above, or did they arise instantaneously by themselves ?

Could be useful to explore some teachings that look more at your direct experience. Rupert Spira for example might be a nice change from new age teachings.

@Mellowmarsh So can we say this is both real and unreal ?

"The uploader has not made the video available in your country" Do you perhaps know if official charges have been made ?

This one's only 20 minutes, put it in the pot

That video is not available here somehow. I saw on Mark Vicente's channel they did an interview with a lawyer, known as the cult assassin. I wonder if she will be bringing official charges against Bentinho. My sense is he probably won't show his face again.

I prefer that you dont break any legs. Survival instincts of the body dont fall away, or at least not in my experience. Separate self is a sense of being separate from life, of being incomplete, of believing ur the thinker, taking personal ownership of thoughts and emotions, believing in free will etc. The me here hasn't 'fallen away' permanently yet, but memories dont have a sense of me anymore, and suffering related to the 'past' has disappeared.

Right back at ya, truly

@Nivsch To say that it's just the cool kids is a bit rediculous. Here are examples of Israeli Holocaust scholars who say it's a genocide.
