@SoonHei This should help answer your question @ 1:13:00

@Arkandeus Funny b-c I getting more moments of- "wow I'm not really in my bathroom" "wow I'm not really writing this message" Ect, ect-

@Bryan Lettner Be empty awareness.

@Cameron When you realize no answer is the answer why would you continue to ask again and again to come to the same conclusion again and again? That's more the definition of insanity than a strange loop.

@Salvijus Sleep is not meditation.

@Neptune2020 As long as we imagine ourselves to be separate personalities one quite apart from another, we cannot grasp reality which is essentially impersonal. First we must know ourselves as witnesses only. Dimensionless and timeless centers of observation and than realize that immense ocean of pure awareness which is both mind and matter and beyond both. Your being a person is due to the illusion of space and time. You imagine yourself to be at a certain point occupying a certain volume. Your personality is due to your self identification with the body. Your thoughts and feelings exist in succession. They have their span in time and make you imagine yourself because of memory having duration. In reality time and space exit in you, you do not exist in them. -Nisargadatta

@Jonson Reality is a fluid situation from the point of the observer. In true reality nothing is happening. Reality just "is".

@Jonson Clockwise. Not everyone will share the same experiance as you in their observation.

@Jonson When you observe this this figure spinning (assuming that you do) which way in your observable reality is it spinning. Clockwise? Or counter clockwise?

Had to share this special Mooji satsang it is so powerful.

@Mikael89 It's a subtle thing that gets easily overshadowed by the play of the mind and worldly activity. I see it in myself. Like today I'm busy doing things and it gets easily forgotten in activity. Than I remember and it all comes back again. I guess the cool thing about it is each time that happens it's like having a mini awakening when you realize you have been asleep.

@metwinn Well worthy to be added to the "Enlightenment Art" topic that Leo started.

@Nahm I'm at a loss for words too. You saw that one already? Love it!

Nisargadatta explains how the jhani views death in the first 5 mins. of this video.

@okulele Everything that is known is unreal. What you know you are you are not.

Here's a really good video on how to align yourself with greater power. Be less matter - become more energy/consciousness.

@metwinn Mostly b-c he had a simple approach to reality based on wholeness and fragmentation. The implicate-explicate order he called it. His holographic model of the universe wasn't well received either by the science community. They'll catch up someday.

Not always. David Bohm for instance didn't fit that mold. But he was mostly shunned by the collective physics community for that. Have you seen Leo's vid on science yet? It's a good one!

@pluto That's really nice! L - UMANANCE I - NTELIGENCE G - IVING H - ARMONY T- RANSFORMING

@billiesimon I'm sure you've seen this before. Do you know it's meaning? The dancing Shiva. See the never ending circle of flames. That is the universe/ existence. It's driven by desire. See the creature that's under Shiva's foot? That is ignorance/ego. The dance between truth and ignorance is what keeps the wheels of the universe turning.

@Santhiphap To accept everything is to except that there is no you that was born, will grow old, and die. Your thoughts have created that illusion from the very start. If you except this you will see the bigger picture. You want to reach a higher level but you cling to the illusion that there is someone there. Have you ever listened to the words of Nisargadatta's pointers?

@The White Belt Nothing is going to be totally sound 'proof' but I would think a pair of ear plugs and over ear sound protection would be close to total silence. Headphones mostly mask external sound and some are better at that than others. The type of ear pads used make a difference too.

@Anna1 What happened in my case wasn't necessarily the end to thoughts arising. They arise as always but the difference now is when they do arise they are just thoughts not "my" thoughts. No attachment. Like bubbles arising in soda they come to the surface than just 'pop' and disappear.
