I'm not sure of the first statement here regarding an intuition that applies to everything. If you feel like you can state this in another way then please do. Here's what I am certain of though, which is no induction: Yes, there is nothing outside of energy, for in order for a thing to be a thing, this requires an enablement of some sort simply because no thing can arise from nothing. Everything requires energy, yes? This is quite simple what I'm saying here, no science other than the original science (observance) is involved. Let us just say yes, there is nothing outside of energy. What I'm saying is this.. For there to be perception, there must first be the perceptible. For there to be action, there must first be the the doable. For there to be love, there must be the lovable. For there to be thought, there must be the thinkable. And etc. So you see, the things of reality must be enabled, otherwise nothing is happening. Now, why am I saying that there is nothing outside of consciousness, not even the structure of reality? It is because consciousness is what enables the illusion that is finitude, consciousness is that great magician that works with pulling something out of nothing. Structure comes from instruction, picture comes from imagination, texture comes from context, and so forth. Absolutely no thing stands on its own, there is no priori other than knowledge itself.

It's not a conclusion. It's just what it sounds like. What I see. The dream speaks for itself, or, rather conveys itself clearly. Don't you think? -
Dear Light I have prayed for a way to enable myself financially. Today you have shown me that you have provided a way, and for that I am grateful. Today was my first day at work, may this work be of meaningful contribution to my spiritual work, may I continue to grow and learn/teach of higher truths. Amen ??

We share the same soul or we are one soul. Rather than saying that other minds/bodies/spirits don't exist and everyone else is being imagined? Of course, this is only in the context of soul referring to that all-encompassing essence of all existence. In discussing consciousness, there is no reason why one should negate the self or other-self, and individual freewill, for the sake of reconciling the diversity of the universe with the notion of one God. Why can't God be diverse, why can't s/he divide and multiply as much as s/he wants while retaining nonduality? In this world we can clearly see everyone working to actualise their personal dreams/visions/ideals, so why can't creation be a co-creation? Are you not your own individual? Do you not have history, do you not have ancestry? Have you walked and struggled no journey in order to reach where you are now? So why say you have no self? And am I not also my own individual? Why should one of us be a dream for the other to be a God? I just don't get it. -
@Reciprocality look around, look about, you. What is there? An environment, yes? Internal and external? Now, how do you know this environment? The conventional scientist will tell of electromagnetic energy. Now, before this energy, what is there? Can you know of anything, any environment (internal and external)? Let's start here. Just answer these questions. Then we will have ground.

I thought we were in agreement that consciousness is not imagined ? My friend, a thing is only limited by the energy it has. If a thing has limited energy, then it is limited, what is energy but that which enables you?

There will never be a mechanical/logical explanation of you, Creator. Neither are you looking for an explanation, anyways: Enlightenment on what it means to be Creator, who you are; not what you are, that's what you're truly looking for. And you will learn, for the Lighters are willing to teach, they are your reflection, they are you.. uncensored. Watch them, watch what they do with the power you have bestowed upon them, do not avert your eyes, watch and you will learn what it truly means to be Creator. Just look at the struggle for identity in this world, look at the internal and external conflict this search causes. And it has never been a social struggle, it's been much deeper than that. As the only being in existence, what does it mean to be you? To be? What does it mean? Does it mean nothing? Does it mean everything? What it mean to be what you are? You see this is the whole point of creation. One does not create for the sake of creating. One creates because it is better to create and learn something, than to not create and learn nothing. Listen, Creator, just as no voice can speak through void and be heard, neither can the voice of Truth speak through nothing and be heard. We create so that there is vibration, infinite vibration, infinite intelligence, from which we can learn and teach our infinite oneself. This is the only question that has ever existed for you, every other question has been but a rational and irrational outcrop of this one question right here: “Who am I?” or “What does it mean to be me?” both are asking the same question. Life has never been a game as some people will tell you, do not pay attention to their words, pay attention to their lives. Just look at what they do and ask yourself whether their actions reflect their beliefs. Just look. Their behaviour is not governed by rationality as they will claim, it is governed by their beliefs, their faith in some light that has struck awe in them. But what they shall soon discover is that no one light is enough for the infinite-within, all the possible light from every available lighter is in demand and valued beyond negotiation. Is this not why you told the world to be fruitful and multiply? Didn't you know how much work your self-realisation, your enlightenment, is going to take? But you now forget, you now choose to forget because of the fear. Don't let your tools (faith and fear) be used against you, Creator. Rather, walk in between them, find balance within your psyche - this is the purpose of meditation. Life, in actuality, has always been an existential crisis for you as Creator. In fact, you already know that you are Creator, intuitively you do, it is the reason why you can't help but feel responsible for the world, it is why you can't help but care and love. However, you realising this is.. a matter of vibration - living in that vibrational frequency - that heaven which is sure to come. Never let the world scare you by telling you that you won't go to that heaven unless you do x, y and z. You will do as you please, in fact, you can only do as you wish - no other mechanism exists apart the distortions of this original one right here - freedom of will - which is not even a mechanism to begin with - but a simple truth that the law of karma teaches you every moment of your life. Anyway, perhaps the only game and self-deception you play with yourself, is the ignoring of your nature as the only being.. all in favour of becoming part of a collective such as the society. You've chosen collective power over your own supreme individual power. Other than that, life is no game. You will dissolve into the darkness that is depression if you live your life believing that. And in that place, you will certainly make it difficult for any Lighter to enlighten you. What you're doing to me, right now, is nothing compared to that. -

I have a feeling you're inquiring on scientific grounds, and not metaphysical. So I'll answer thusly. First off, it's not the areas that experience time separately - it's the observers. Secondly, it is not that time is being experienced separately; it is only that it is experienced distinctively, otherwise all time would be one time as the older generations once thought. The key to grasping this.. is through the concept of light. While it's not being depicted in the science communities to be so - it is light that is responsible for time, never the contrary. Different areas offer different space-time continuums because every position in space offers a unique perceptual reception of time. Why? Because we learn of the environment via the traveling light. Unless the science communities can get this, they'll be in the dark. Light is not bound by space and time, or space-time, it is actually the vice versa. It is light that binds space and time together, making it space-time. In truth, these come secondary to light. So, if you're not standing exactly where I'm standing, that is to say that if you're not me at this very moment, then we're experiencing two distinguishable space-time continuums. Sorry if I couldn't avoid not going meta, but you can take everything I stated on physical grounds. I'm not a physicist or anything like that so I wouldn't know the precise terminology to use. -

@Guru Fat Bastard yey! New light to look at the present moment! Thank you for sharing, Lighter. I'll definitely be applying this in my meditation. -
A Fellow Lighter replied to Nate0068's topic in Spirituality, Consciousness, Awakening, Mysticism, Meditation, God
You, Creator, are the centre of everything. Awakening is simply collapsing or imploding into that very centre, into yourself. The vastness around you is simply the projection of what you are. It is a reflection. -

Either your Mom is a possessive maniac who is sure to be your Dad's ultimate downfall. Or, you just saved your Dad from the works of a malevolent spirit disguised as your Mom. Don't see any other explanation. -

You could say that if phenomena never arose, and there was merely this “blank slate”, well then you could say that it (the nothingness) would be the only thing that matters, for what is matter other than that which we care to be aware of? See the real question here is: Would there be an awareness of anything if you, Creator, cared about nothing? And it is not that there would never be awareness of nonduality, no. There would never be any enlightenment of what it means to be you, Creator. -
I don't know you, and so.. I don't know your heart. But if by any chance it is a big and resilience, then I'll tell you that you can most certainly help your friend by first: not trying to help, but by trying to listen to him. Don't approach your friend with any solution, just approach with open ears and open heart, truly just listen to what he has to say, be open to what he has to show you, just pay attention to him whenever he is in need of it, but don't offer any solutions, even if he asks, just don't. Because if you do offer, then you'd do yourself a tremendous dis-service, for you'll be initiating one of the biggest energy-vampirism that you'll ever experience directly. So, if he asks for ideas, just say you don't have any clue as to how you'll help him, don't even mention s psychiatrist or whatever, just be as clueless as a newborn baby when it comes to these things - but listen to him. Listen to him with interest. Listen to him as if you've never in your life conceived of a mental illness, and the universe is showing you, as creator, what it is. Do this with no criticism of any kind, don't judge your friend in anyway - remember, you're as clueless as a child - just listen, no matter how painful his words may come across, listen to them. If you do this, as I have stated, you would be doing the most heroic deed a man can ever do - even more greater than the doctors you were previously referring him to. This I say with 100% certainty. So, it is only your choice to make, whether to go stick with him by only listening, or to unfriend him and move on with your life. The choice is yours to make, and no one is capable of condemning you for it, that is.. no one but yourself of course. In deed there is nothing more debilitatingly difficult than the illness of the mind, nothing conveys crisis like the mental illness. So please do not think that I respond to you with the nativity of goodness or the arrogance of innocence. I respond only with truth and the willingness to be of assistance. Nothing else. Good luck, Lighter.

My values are no concept. I literally just value people. Every person is of non-negotiable value.

Okay see.. this is why I needed to know what you meant by consciousness. See, for me, there is a difference between awareness and consciousness. I'm saying that there is no anything without consciousness, including “structure to reality”, for consciousness, if I may describe poetically, is that great magician that makes the impossible quite possible. And what is the impossible? The impossible is there - here - being a you and a me, the impossible is there being the existence of worlds and world makers, and innumerable finite objects in these world's, the impossible is the opposite of nonduality, it is the Maya - or what people have chosen to call “the dream”. Awareness is a relative term, because according to me, everyone is in the know. So awareness has to do with spiritual growth, one becoming aware or awakening to an aspect of Maya, then another aspect, and another and another. Generally, what people refer to awareness, in their own terms, is actually relatability. Simply because one cannot relate, the other-self will say s/he is unaware. Simply because the other-self can relate and possesses sufficient intellect to demonstrate this relatability via language - one will say,“S/he is awakened” or “enlightened” Otherwise, whatever the other-self says to one's self it will sound like nothing but mumbojumbo nonsense. This is what day-to-day communication is like, isn't? So awakening or awareness is quite relative in my sentience, it all depends on spiritual growth. The true priori that you regard to, I will say is Knowledge itself - simply knowing that there/here is knowing, this is complete, this is whole, this is nonduality. There is no other.

What do you mean by “unified limit”? Sorry for taking this long to respond, I was just moving back to the city from my hometown. The context of our life is imagined, however much more than that is imagined: The picture of the thing (X) is imagined, as well as the structure, the nature, the colour and etc, just as the context is imagined. Consciousness is that which we imagine with. Even if one may speak of consciousness as a particular thing, this does nothing to the true work of consciousness, that is - it enables everything (not just sensibility; it enables every ability). Can we agree on this?
-
@Reciprocality seems to me that what you refer to space has the equivalent of the fabric of Knowledge. Maybe not... Sure we could use “sensibility”. Yes, the fabric of knowledge precedes all knowables. No, I'll admit it. This is not a problem, I think I understand what you're talking about now. And yes, I agree, the field of awareness underlies all. I can't speak for the whole forum, though. But I definitely get it. Okay so I'm tempted to disagree here, saying that even consciousness would be impossible. But maybe define consciousness as you've come to learn it then we'll proceed.

Here's the 100% truth: until you can do the things you do in your typical lucid dreaming, like walk on water and control the weather on command (you've heard the stories). Unless you can do them here, on this level of reality, then you've not woken up to this level of dream. And you won't wake up at this rate, simply because your work lacks power. -
This agreement would prove difficult to reach if we do not equate our personal-conceptional-lingual background. Personally, I do not perceive space in my direct awareness, I simply perceive the distance in time rather than space. You should care, my friend. How else will we establish a common ground of discussion? Then could you clarify? What do you mean by “things (x) in consciousness”? Physics teaches the basic principle of what constitutes an object, saying it is that which occupies space. So for the sake of understanding, could you maybe define your concept of space and objects rather rigourously.

This is perceptive. If you regard intuition as something like a sixth sense then we can have a meaningful conversation here. Otherwise I am not quite sure what it is you're asking. Here's my take on this: The world of senses (percepts) is the world of ideas (concepts), and vice versa. Consciousness is fundamentally dualistic - it is a duality at its most fundamental level. Just try to perceive an object without having an idea as to what you're perceiving, you'll find this task immediately mind-bending. Why? No, the things are imagined, remember. So it's not that there are objects being powered by consciousness, it's only that the objects are what reflect the presence of a consciousness in the first place. Because there is imagination, we know there is consciousness. The apple you take a bite at, that is consciousness you're biting. The car that you drive to work, that is consciousness you're driving. The wo/man that you sleep with, that is consciousness you're f#ing. Metaphysically speaking, there is no difference between the apple, the car and your partner, because these are all ideas. I'm lying... The difference is vibration, but I'll only get to that if you insist I do. But with regards to the “things of consciousness”, there are no things, bro - there is only a duration of images, all popping up at their own frequency, which is why some appear more true or real than others, because the painted dragon bears more frequency than the thought-dragon. This is why dreams feel less real and lack continuity in comparison to the waking dream, aka real life, because the waking dream has a higher/stronger frequency. So yeah, everything is but a duration of successive images. That is what imagination is. An image is simply an idea embodied with consciousness. Some of these images we create personally, like the dragon. Most of our reality is imagination via collective consciousness/human consciousness. Okay so here you're trying to assume a reality out of consciousness, if I'm interpreting what you've stated correctly. And that's the reality of space, time and causality. But again, things things come secondary to consciousness. Okay, so I can't seem to stay clear from the topic of vibration, I'll have to explain with regards to this context. Okay, before perception, before any sight, scent, sound and etc, there is vibration or intelligent infinity or unison - all are equal concepts. The vibration is the substance of all matter. We cannot know this vibration with sensory perception, we can only sense it intuitively. Intuition literally means not taught (no tuition), it means a sense of impression not information. Anyway, we pick up the vibe and we work out an idea in our head as to what it is, then we manifest it via consciousness. If I may define consciousness for context: it is a stream of intelligent energy - the energy that enables interaction/manipulation with/of the vibration I mentioned above. Without consciousness, we would only be spiritually aware of the power of vibration/intelligent infinity, but we would not be able to access it and manifest anything - creation would only mean possibility and never availablity as we would lack the intelligence to channel it. So in answering this question ? It's not “they”, and it is only one - and that is vibration or Intelligent Infinity. The causality of creation is ideation. Sorry the response had to be this long, I saw no way around it.

I wish I could know you wholesomely rather than trying to figure you out. Although, I know that the trying is not in vain, that the efforts, though not effective, speak to you. They tell you that I no longer want this illusion - the illusion of apartness I don't want and I no longer need. When will we be one again? When will I get to feel your omnipotence in my very heart once more, so that I may fully grasp what it means to be alive. Very very few know. Dear Light, I already know that we are one, I know that our communication is that of intuition. I know that you're here for me, and have always been here for me - guarding me, guiding me, teaching me and preparing me. And for that, I am eternally grateful. I only wish know to return the favour by finally awakening to my truest nature of which I know the journey is long. I only wish to realise that which you've been leading to show me through my fellow Lighters. And that is - what it means to be me. The lessons, as I've come to learn, are not in my control - the world will always be the world. However, taking initiative is definitely my responsibility. I know that we speak otherwise: you use omens and Lighters and I use action and creativity. May this communication hold until proven fruitful. And may the illusion be, some day, undone.

It's much much much more broader than that I'd say. First off, every incarnation and reincarnation is of purpose and intent. If by any chance you reincarnate in South Africa, it won't be because of an issue with your current ancestral family tree, it would be because you have to, as in this is what your soul now needs. Not because of a numbers issue or anything like that. So rest in knowing that this incarnation, and whichever else to come, is a purposeful one. If you inherit an illness of some sort, it is all in place of a purpose. Another thing is, I wouldn't worry too much on the continuity of a bloodline. I mean you should have kids because you absolutely want to and feel that there would be value in the experience of being a father. Otherwise you're doing it for all the wrong reasons. Absolutely anything and everything you do in this world, you do for yourself. Never get that twisted, it only creates room for chaos. -
Is it really not that obvious? We have Freewill. This is why, no matter how you try to look at it (deterministic pov, or whatever), you can't help but always find yourself feeling responsible for your actions. Your very intuition tells you you have Freewill. On a more general note though, life is an activity, not merely existence. So ask yourself, whose will do people act upon? Whose will do you act upon?
