You don’t see others and the world in an objective way, you see your own mental projections as an overlay on the world, as a lens, as a judgement of everything , so in that sense you’re living inside your own mind. But your mind is part of the collective mind, so it’s also shared with others, you have similar mental projections like others do. So you are in a sense alone with your mind, your mental projections. Doesn’t mean other people are mental projections, but it acts like an overlay on them, on the “objective” world. Dissolving this means dissolving yourself

What did you write I don’t know which one it is

Is that the essence of his teaching?

So if I wanna find out I should consume his content again

How would one practice simply being?

It was such a long time ago I read his book so I don’t remember exactly how he preached it. I did do this thing though of putting like ridiculously large amounts of alarms throughout the day and stopping to breathe deeply and close my eyes at every one of them. Also trying to take moments to breathe deeper in general so you could say yes

I did practice spiritually in the past so yes. The 2d sense is due to extreme degrees of self dissolution but it sounds too weird to talk about

Did I say that a long time ago? Because I did do some practices in the past. For example his body scanning before bed. Then I also used to meditate every day. Present is a little tricky word, I would say I’m okay at being present

Okay I see.

What do you mean? Like how your loved ones progress determines yours

I suppose this will be a loooong road. I’m steadily increasing my meditation time. My goal is to eventually do something like 4-5 hours a day. How about you?

I just did that lol😂 I don’t know if I would call that boredom, maybe it is now you say it. It’s so hard to not look at the phone from time to time

Same.

I would agree. We are made to interact with the world, I’m just built different.

I didn’t mean you were I like it too when I can talk filter less so that includes being able to talk about deeper things

Yea that’s kind of what I wrote about in another reply. My guess is that they are the boring ones…

I cant be bored because I enjoy my own mind (when I’m more connected to myself and can even hear my thoughts). I’m guessing you and the average person is more outwardly focused so affected by outside circumstance so you derive joy from outward circumstances which is totally normal so you’re bored when something interesting isn’t happening externally that you can involve your mind in

My guess is that it’s felt when enlightenment happens or awakening

This I can’t answer . I wonder the same

I never understood boredom either. Pretty much never felt it

The kind of love that is truth is not the conventional love, it’s unconditional and includes even the untruthfulness. Intuitively

It’s one thing to talk about these thing, another to become directly conscious of how everything is the same substance, that’s my goal

It’s one thing to talk about these thing, another to become directly conscious of how everything is the same substance, that’s my goal

If everything is the same substance, and is the same as nothing, then no material is needed for nothing to exist
