Still can't escape that.

Or we could say existence has no source. There is no source of existence. Existence is source. It didn't create itself.

I guess I don't understand why you think you don't exist?

?

I know I'm not what I think I am not even "pure infinity". Regardless I can't get rid of myself or escape myself. So paradoxically I am enslaved forever by myself. Prison and prisoner simultaneously. But I'll try to make a good prison lol.

if I didn't exist then I wouldn't be able to respond to you. So in my mind whatever I am must exist.

So I can't ever be free of my own existence.

So then I will still exist. My existence won't be finished. To me it sounds like misuse of language I truly want to understand this if you can help. What he seems to be talking about is absolute death. The end of me forever.

how could a non-existent source give rise to existence?

So why do you think he says "that which is not" or that which does not exist is the basis of existence?

But why does he call this "that which is not" which literally means that which does not exist?

What about this quote "When I say “one with God”, it does not mean going and joining someone somewhere. It is just that your individual bubble is over. To use an analogy, right now your existence is like a bubble. A bubble that is floating around is very real but if you burst it, where does the air inside the bubble go? It just becomes one with the atmosphere. It is completely dissolved. When we say “one with everything”, this is what it means. Nothing will be there. “You” will not be there. When we say mukti, it means you are free from existence. I am not talking about existence as a quantity which you are free from. You are free from your own existence – your existence is finished."

What is your take on this then? https://isha.sadhguru.org/us/en/wisdom/article/samadhi-to-go-beyond-existence

I'm being dead serious here. Why can't you (so-called consciousness) create a new universe right now? The point is all those who say consciousness can do/imagine anything can't do it. They are imagining they can. I think we need to recognize our limitations (physical) and work from there instead of claiming abilities and powers that we simply don't have.

If you are me then my life is your life and it's not a dream it's your actual life. Indeed I can't see the world beyond my perception and neither can you but that doesn't mean there isn't a common world that you and I are perceiving. I guess I don't understand why you call it a dream? What is your definition of a dream.? Is it really appropriate to call something that you can't wake up from a dream?

If other people are experiencing then it's not a dream since they would be real beings. You can't wake up from base reality. I myself am experiencing. Are you suggesting that you are not actually experiencing?

Why do you think you are imagining your limitations? How do you know that you aren't imagining that you are imagining them? How do you define imagining?

Can you stop imagining that?

If you can't transcend your limitation its more than imaginary it's real. You aren't imagining that you can't fly, You actually can't fly.

Then create a spaceship right now. If you can't do it then it's just a belief.

lol I'm talking about building a spaceship and flying to the moon and putting a sign that says "Look WokeBloke I am unlimited and all powerful" and taking a picture and posting it. If someone can do that then I will accept that they are practically unlimited.

a bunch of beliefs

In the beginning God was ignorant is my view. I agree God (you/I) didn't consciously (for the most part) create this universe with suffering. We create sufferings because we are extremely unconscious. Nobody in humanity was considering oneness (except rare mystics) throughout human history. We simply don't know what we are. In addition belief isn't enough to do something. You also have to be capable. The problem isn't that we don't believe that we can't create a spaceship right now it's that we actually can't.

Say you wanted to create a spaceship right now. Could you do it?

Only I can desire. My ego doesn't do anything. I desire to create a new universe right now but I can't do it and neither can you.
