Reincarnation is every moment if you identify as the ego. If you identify as what the ego appears in, you leave the cycle of death and rebirth... The cycle continues here so your human self character continues dying and being reborn, but you recognize that is not you.

@Adamq8 Without any issue, these things are aspects of it. Is "God" all knowing? Well yes because any knowing that ever happens takes place in it. Sentient and intelligent? Well we are sentient, and we are it, so yes. It will tick any box for God as far as I can tell, as any property that exists IS it. But this is the thing, that all of that is happening within itself. Order, intelligence, understanding, is all taking place within it in some form of finitude. There's nothing outside ALL the undulations of infinity which can observe or control it. If there was something outside, that would become the new infinity. And so on and so on forever. The total infinity does not have any border. Borders only exist where there is finitude of some sort. There's no such thing as outside of it (and also thus no such thing as inside, because inside only exists in relation to outside).

This is the exact sort of sensation I got in the specific trips described where I would be screaming, crying, etc. It was like being God at the mercy of its own chaotic infinite nature. I've used hallucinogens, and especially DMT, A LOTTTT. After that trip I put it away, and that time I genuinely mean I put it away forever. I will never touch psychedelics again. Although I don't think there is control and I viscerally encountered something where I could never reach a border, what it felt like when I put this shit away (still tripping) knowing for sure I would never touch it again, is like God shaking his own hand in agreement to never speak of or recognize it again. Like two people who just killed someone. Lol. It felt like a secrecy pact...

I don't think he made it up, I think I know what he went through which was total ego death. I think he calls it God because it contains sentience (we are sentient, we are it). He does not know the totality of mind. If he did, he could tell you what your bedroom looks like. Leo is especially obsessed with understanding, he went to college for engineering at one point and IIRC graduated uni with a philosophy degree, that's how he works. But when ANYONE comes down from a trip, or even during a trip, the moment thought starts, interpretations tend to creep in. Thus Leo himself has gone down rabbitholes of attempting telekinesis etc., because he has tried to interpret something. I am always doing this also. With very serious trips you never really come back because the mind will forever want to understand and process what happened to it. But it can't... I did recognize myself as empty/nothing. Definitively. But this was a recognition taking place within the appearance of the finite (I was aware of whatever mad patterns and jester things I was hallucinating at that time)... I have actually blacked out on DMT. And been under general anaesthetic. I suspect that is the most intimate we as characters can get with "it", yet we get absolutely nothing from these experiences because there isn't an experience. We have to be on the event horizon to actually take something away from it, rather than being totally in it.

Essentially I think you can recognize being it, but never step outside of that undulation to observe it in totality. I think I posted this because I don't enjoy the Actualized.org lingo of assigning what sounds like control to the self. E.g. 'you "imagined" your parents' etc. I don't like that, it makes it sound like a decision. Infinite intelligence, omnipotence, whatever is said is going to be a product of it. I don't think it has control itself, rather control would have to be a product of it. The most frightening panic attacks on trips have often been when the borders vanish in ALL directions. What is so intensely frightening is that there is absolutely nowhere to grab. You can't understand it, you can't control it, because wherever you try to grab hold of something, it's just not there. You can reach endlessly in any direction for some sort of border you can grip onto and thus control, and never find one. EVER. Because there ISN'T one. And because of that lack of anywhere to grip, your mind goes completely psychotic. A human mind NEEDS duality to function. It NEEDS a border to orient itself with and something it can grab and manipulate. I had many trips where consciousness became dimensionless. There were a few very weird like that though, and I'd be screaming and crying throughout. I don't think there is a creatOR... Just is-ness... I don't think there's a sentient being deciding to imagine the universe.

Omfg LOL.

I like @AdeptusPsychonautica, I find him genuine. Don't forget, Leo is as much a human as you or me. He is exactly as prone to delusions as any of us. That means he is as at risk as us of overdoing hallucinogens and starting to go off the rails with telekinesis or magical healing etc. Leo is not better than a spec of sand, but also not worse than the entire milky way. That is what total unity entails. No part of it can ever be better OR worse than another... However MANY people into self help are LOOKING for someone to be subservient to. They find anyone with any kind of presence like Tony Robbins and prop them up as their personal messiah... Meaning if their chosen messiah, like any other human, goes down a dark path or falls into mental illness or whatever, these people all follow.

As many know, nobody ever really comes back from a serious DMT breakthrough. Even though the memory of the heaviest breakthrough ever is so faded that I can only recall about 3 seconds of it, hazily, I still try to understand what happened. I remember the euphoric afterglow... I remember knowing I am not more important than a single grain of sand, but also not less important than an entire solar system. I remember understanding right aftef that spiritual practices are a waste of life, as everyone is equal and their entire lifetime of spirituality/good deeds erased when they die. I remember speaking to Shiva (I was VERY heavily materialistic, had zero spiritual leaning, and in fact Hindu characters have always looked frightening to me). I thought it was a woman. I know now it's a man... I remember Googling "monist religions" (yes the ego death was SO intense from the 5 tab acid DMT combo that I became religious) and then finding Advaita Vedanta for the first time. I remember reading a lot about it then. I remember the dissociation and awful derealization that began after further usage. ... But I remember it was very "we" are one. I have tripped so much, on LSD alone (rather than the acid DMT combos I became religious due to) I had similar abstract realizations of repetition, and of "slithers of being", like I am slither #1948127 in some infinite honeycomb. My own being split into various characters. All had their own personalities and spoke among themselves in the voice of the Friends characters. They were all distinct aspects of me... I had a programmable synth. You program a beat into each square and it plays them in order. I had an abstract acid thought that my entire existence is like that. Where I am programmed into squares like this and I in fact die every single moment. A clown jester PROVED my inherent emptiness to me. It did not just tell me. It pointed at the formless me in the foreground and I was pulled far back. Back behind even my ego. Back behind even the thought of "I", an experiential neti-neti process where I was left as literal nothing... But I also remember the ego deaths where the sense of any locale died and my consciousness became sizeless and all encompassing. ... But back to the main trips where I did heavy acid trips with the DMT smoked on the peak... I have forever been trying to understand those experiences since. There was certainly oneness and unity. But a "we". "We are existence itself, we are eternal" etc. Rather than "I" am. "We" are literally one... When sober I cannot comprehend that simultaneous separation ("we") and the absolute total unity ("are one" - literally) that accompanied. Maybe it's not comprehensible... Laughing with what was at the time stupendously obvious to the point it was hilarious: "I know, they (other living beings) don't even realize they're us!!!" Stifling fits of laughter...

Never. I dare that you try to stop appearances from being. Time and space goes away, so there's no gap of non-experience that could ever have actuality. We are a source of insane chaotic uncontrollable creation. No matter how much we try to still the mind, it never works. Being IN cessation is never experienced. I am terrified by the implications of inevitability... E.g. one ego that can never be "enlightened" suffering forever in the most pain possible in an eternal black void. Ahh!

This is one of a few important differences between varying interpretations. Many solipsists, especially on the schoolyard, believe their character is real but everyone else is imaginary. I think all mystical traditions have agreed upon the self character being imaginary. Albeit some have ideas akin to souls. Very complex... The way "that" when discovered fits in with the totality has been interpreted in so many ways after the fact of discovery...

It's a garbage pursuit. I'm just obsessed with it because once a SERIOUS DMT trip happens, you never come back. You'll always be wanting to understand that.

Of course it does yeah. If nobody felt pain etc (I mean relatively) I'd just shoot anyone I dislike, rape anyone I find attractive, and rob old ladies when I need cash. If they are sentient beings then there is empathy which comes into play. I don't entirely know this, I have had encounters with "monism". During said encounters, I didn't actually have these musings anymore so it's not like I realized one way or another. I think I do believe other creatures are sentient. When the Buddha spoke about "consciousness" he did something really bizarre and divided it up into things like eye-consciousness as though each sense has its own consciousness... None of these people knew IMO, not for sure, hence you have people FAR more dedicated and "gifted" than Leo or w.e. who fundamentally disagree regarding Atman... I don't think you can know DEFINITIVELY but, you can know "we are all one" in whatever flavor. That's the realization all these figures had. And experientially I suppose it was the same for all of them. Interpretation and questions/answers come after.

And no clarity was provided on that day lol...

But I'm not controlling this, and also not controlling many aspects of my nighttime dreams either. That creeps me out... What IS "imagination" etc. Who decided to put a planet at X coordinates. It's very creepy.

A person and an alien walk towards a signpost. To the human it looks like it walked a distance of 100 metres and the signpost itself is like, a pole with a wooden arrow (w.e.). To the alien, it may well look like it walked 5 metres, and the post itself might look like an eagle heiroglyph or some shit (because there's no reason this couldn't happen). But both the human and the alien reach the "signpost". Its actuality can't be anything perceived, so it can't actually be "like" anything. As in, that is not just a theory, it's impossible anything could be "like" something without perception. So wtf is it. It has to be nothing, because things are perceptions. But the nothing has some kind of shape and form to it, so beings with completely alien subjective experiences can agree there is "SOMETHING" there. What is the mechanism for the placement of "unspecified-nothingness-thing"? Are infinite versions of the same thing there at once? What is it though, that places it "there" at a specific spot in the landscape.....

Drugs. Hallucinogen propaganda merchants love preaching about their rainbows and butterfly fairytale love bullshit... But in reality if you get raped by it hard enough, you're not coming back... It just straight up deletes reality, and you'll then forever try to comprehend it.

"Things" are made of perception. E.g. falling tree = no sound, as the thud is a product of the mind in response to a stimulus... Floating teacup is made of shapes/color (sight) and feel (touch). No teacup symbol when not observed. Other humans are made of perceptions. You don't actually have a face when you are alone lmfao. Because it's made out of sight, and without a mirror you don't see it (maybe you can see your nose kinda, or eyebrow hairs)... I guess we can feel it... But it's not "looking like" a face until a perception makes it look that way. Remove all perceiving of other people and see them vanish into nothingness. Imagine standing in a noisy crowded train station...... You go completely deaf, the chatter ends, everything goes silent. You go completely blind, the crowd vanishes. They are still there, but now you see their true "default" form: Nothingness. Which is I think also infinity... There is nowhere for them to be other than right back here... See all locations and perceptions in general appear to the same field which is itself 100% static. No matter what person it is, they're always going to find themselves static locked "here", and "otherness" seemingly locked in the "out there"... Of course the "out there" is a mental projection as described.

If a person discusses solipsism without equally disregarding their "own" experience 5 seconds ago, then the position is legit moronic.

It's just being terribly described, and maybe even on purpose, an inflammatory buzzword is being used. Nobody looking in a mirror thinks the image in the mirror has awareness inside of its head. It's just an image. Of course it is nowhere in the image, it is back here. Look at other people. It is the same. Awareness is not living inside the image of their human body. That is just an image. It's back here. Also true of animals, aliens, anywhere where there is experience, the awareness is never residing inside of the image of the being... Now you get it. The life of another person could be considered something like an event you took part in but don't remember. If you see photos of you as a very young toddler, where you can see you were present for a specific event and thus KNOW you experienced it, even though you have no memory of it... For what possible reason does that not also apply to the experiences of other living beings?

Most likely it's just poorly communicated and also nobody understands it at all. It could also just be psychotic delusion, of course, if the person remembers an event from yesterday or something and sees that as different from the experiences being had by another person. To be consistent with "solipsism" you would have to disavow every prior moment of your life in the same manner as other people's lives are disavowed. It's not complicated or mysterious unless someone is purposefully trying to make it sound that way for "le epic guru points" or w.e.

Not at all, just Stage Brown, for Brown-nosing. Lmao.

I'm in an altered state. Other people are created unconsciously via perception. What gives another person "thingness" is the same perception that gives dead inert matter its "thingness", in other words it's via sensing that other people are created as "things". A bat may perceive a person with its sonar vision, but of course the "thingness" of the person rendered via the bat would be completely alien, as the person would be made of sonar sight. From a human perspective, the people are created in audio, visual, etc. it's perception that gives them human shape and the sound of their voice. A blind person's creation of a human is alien to a sighted person's representation of the same. There is nothing preventing a human from appearing as tiny symbols or sounding like foghorns, the creation is entirely subjective. Many people can agree on what the symbol represents, but the symbol itself will be subjective to the perceptions of the individual. The fakeness of time allows for backlogging of events. There is no event you are not present for. If you enter a coma, coming out of that coma you will learn of people's prior experiences whilst you were in that coma. The assumption is that your presence was not there while those events happened. In actuality the presence remained. The events took place instantaneously and presently, as do all events. The entire material world is subjective like a dream, in that it is made up of perceptions and something akin to """imagination""". Like the creation of people, the whole material world is created on the fly via perception consisting of whatever sensory input that may be. Something which is not perceived cannot have "thingness" because any "thingness" is reliant on perception. Water boils if you walk out of the room, but it is not in the kitchen LOOKING or SOUNDING like a boiling kettle. Without perception it is not a thing. All things without perception appear like the world when you are in a coma. It doesn't appear at all and there is no passage of time and space. The passage of time and space is something that is perceived. Without perception all events are immediate and without thingness. All events leading up to now were immediate. All living beings reside within you. There is no external material world. All points of view take place within you through different masks which is what the ego is. When another human being experiences reality the "I" which creates reality around them, consisting of their sensory creations, is the same one residing back within you. The entire world from any perspective appears from the same "I" through which the world is subjectively crafted around you. All of reality is subjective as all "thingness" is subjective. Objective facts which make up "consensus reality" are sort of like mass hallucination. It's not the ego self which creates reality, the ego self creates a subjective representation of a reality which is outside the scope of its limited self. The imagination/creation of unperceived elements is outside the scope of the small-s self. Another human being is like a visual avatar representing an element of your own mind. Your OWN self is also a representation of an aspect of your own mind, and is equally as unreal as "others". You don't choose your thoughts, and you don't choose the thoughts of others. It all appears unfolding by itself within the same field. Lucidity will always be lost. That is good. I'm losing lucidity right now and that is good. When lucid you only exit the game like stirring from a nighttime dream. It is fleeting and falling back asleep is inevitable. This process is forever. Any interpretation of goodness or badness is subjective to the ego like any appearance is. Nothing can in actuality be inherently good or bad, as good or bad is reliant upon the interpretation of the individual, which itself will of course always just be an appearance taking place within existence. It crafts its actuality via subjective perception. The sheer awareness of this supercedes all reality, as all reality can only ever be an appearance within it, obviously. I.e., no matter what sensory "things" appear, it will always be reliant upon awareness to give it an actuality. Without awareness, the visual representations along with time and space have no actuality, like being comatose there is no "thing" in absence of awareness. Awareness cannot be destroyed because it is by itself nothingness, and there is nowhere for nothingness to go, and no way to destroy nothingness. This is the meaning of emptiness: Awareness by itself is nothing, and the contents of awareness robbed OF that awareness are also nothing. Nothing can "be" without the presence of awareness as it is all skipped over like a coma. Time and space are a form of substrate through which experience takes place. Without experience there is, obviously, no experience of time and space. Now I have lost lucidity... Oh well...

Another correct take explained in a clear and obvious manner. Where is the following woman's "I"? Is it in the head of the image of her in the mirror? Is it in the head of her standing in front of the mirror? Of course not, it is here behind you. You are the one having the experience in the precise exact way you were the one who experienced yesterday. An entirely different message to saying "lol bro she like, is an NPC tee hee". Which when the teaching method is poor quality is what lunatics of course roll with.

We are the big bang. Duh.

Matter is a 1:1 representational interface of our dream, that is why mind and matter are completely glued together such that toying with the matter which represents the act of "being human" (your brain) will alter the lived experience of "being human". It can get extremely alien indeed. Especially on Salvinorin A. The Big Bang is the most obvious artifact of our complete unity. Exploring matter IS exploring "mind", like if you fall asleep right now and explore the substance of your dream. The substance in your nightly dream which appears physical is the activity of your mind. Exploring that substance then, is of course exploring mind. Because that's what matter is.
