  1. That's what everyone is saying here:
  2. Great! I had similliar vision on shrooms. Saw one face morphing into every person I know, mother, fiance, teachers from elementary school, Hitler etc. There is this One morphing into infinite faces.
  3. I wanted to comment some old post and got the notification to post a new thread instead. It is just my opinion. The fact that everything is perfect, and that all is imaginary and that there is only consciousness does not mean that we can't imrove the harmony within that dream. We can strive to decrease suffering just for the sake of it being beautiful. Of course there is no need to. I was on a Keto diet for 4 years (mainly meat, fish, eggs). So I am the last one to judge anyone. But then I watched Yurofsky speech : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U5hGQDLprA8&ab_channel=GaryYourofsky and movie Dominion (Highly recommended). And I just cried. Even though I already knew at that point that there ultimately is no suffering. That all of death and life is just a beautiful dance. That there is no good vs bad. But still with that in mind it made me shed some tears. And I stopped eating meat and went vegan the next day. Now I am vegetarian because it is so much easier to start a day with some scrambled eggs for me and I totally know that I ignore the pain of those beings just to be a little more comfortable for breakfast. Maybe I could be considered more evil than average meat-eater, because of being totally conscious of the pain but still eating my eggs. Everyone has their ignorance bar at some level and I am no different. It is not even about killing and eating. It is about the tortures that these poor souls go through in these farms. The legs of chickens are breaking because they can not withstand the fast growth. The mother cows cry for their children ( they have a very strong matternal instinct/love). They do not ever see sun. They have the same emotions that cats and dogs have. Cows and pigs for sure. Yes. Plants are also living being. Also can feel pain of some sorts. But if you care for plants too you should stop eating meat. The 80% of plant production is just for meat production. 26% of global water consumption is wasted on meat. Only 4% of calories that we feed animals is then consumed by us in the form of meat. We lose 96% of calories we would have had from plants. It is extremelly inefficient process. Kurzgesagt video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NxvQPzrg2Wg&ab_channel=Kurzgesagt–InaNutshell So if you think that plants are living beings that also should be respected then you should have even more motivation to resign from meat. Or if you just care about environment. So if you are one of those lucky people like me, that do not need meat to feel good, to be healthy - because totally for some it is needed (for example Bentinho Massaro tried to be vegan but it quickly deteriorated his health and he said it was a really powerful catalyst for him to understand the dance of life) - if you are one of those lucky ones please consider decreasing you consumption. Love ya.
  4. Yes, I totally agree it would still be huge and thats what we should focus too. I also do not eat meat at all to inspire others in a way. If maybe my family sees that I do not eat it for many years maybe it will be enough for them to deacrese consumption by 20%. Thats the function of being a change. There is nothing to disagree - I just said that it would be a treshold for me that conceptual 20%. For you it is maybe 1%. For some highly ideological propaganda vegans probably 50%.
  5. What is the best way for you as awakaned consciousness to make the world (that you are imagining) a better place? Is vibrating high frequency more beneficial to the world than doing? Who is doing more good the one seeting in a cave in samadhi or feeding children but with a low conscious mind? Are there aliens in a world that you are dreaming? What do you like more Sun vs Moon and why? Also bananas vs strawberrys and why?
  6. I think he is critiquing Solipsism from perspective of still being indentified with the Ego. Not True Solipsism. Anyway thank you for that video. I resonate with his vibe and will check him out.
  7. Are You Infinite Blackness or Infinite Whiteness?
  8. Guys. We need more stage yellow thinking here. It is not so simple. I was on keto/omnivore for 4 years and I felt really good and I liked a lot of things about it. I was also purely vegan for over a year and had great blood results and I like many things about it. There are people that would be malnourished by vegan diet. I am not one of them. There would be a lot of people that would be miserable on carnivore diet. We really need to start to realize how much optimal eating is dependend on each individual. There are a lot of 10+ years vegan that feel great. There are many long term omnivores that feel great. But if we can why not deacrese the amount of suffering. Also if I would feel worse lets say 10-20% because of not eating meat, I would probably still not eat meat. I am just a kind of person that would do that kind of sacrifice for less suffering. But lets say that my specific body would feel 50% worse. That would actually not be the price I am willing to take and I would eat meat again. Lets not judge anyone on each side. I would not eat meat even if it would be produced in harmony. Part of my personal journey is to learn to see the Creator in each being and feeling more campassion. But it is just my mission. There was a study in which a child were to choose to kill a human vs dog. On average kids valued 1 dog life = 2 human lifes. We are conditioned with advertising that eating meat is so loffy-duffy. Each chicken and pig in an advertisemnt smiles and is happy to be eaten. There is no blood. There was a Carefour (supermarket) that on some occasion decided to sell ducks with feathers on its meat compartment. There was a huge outburst that it is unethical to sell such animals with heads and feathers. We are so conditioned that average person does not even see meat as part of animal, a corpse, muscles. It is just meat in their minds. It is not natural for most people to hunt for an animal. We are deeple detached. Love ya.
  9. Why is there Evil? Is Evil made of Love? Why did you as God imagine evil things?
  10. Infinity was/is not aware at first. In perfect, quality-less state. And then it wanted to know itself. Consciousness arose just as first imaginations were imagined.
  11. I totally agree with all that you wrote here. So we could look at thoughts just like at any other sense. Like brain is an antenna tha catches deterministic thoughts out of air. BUT there is consciousness behind all senses, behind thoughts just as you've written yourself. But I as consciousness can choose what to focus on. On my thoughts, on sounds, onto itself. Consciousness is free to navigate. Focus is different than thinking. All else I can agree to be deterministic but consciousness itself is a Free Will of Creator. That how I see it. Just like in a dream, thoughts of your character are not being generated by him but by you sleeping mind. But the act of realization that it is a dream, act of ignoring thoughts and contents of a dream, act of realizing by dreamt character that it is in fact whole mind, whole dream it is pure Free Will. So in a way before enlightment world is deterministic, after God-Realization the Free Will is true.
  12. I wondered about this a lot. I also thought that everything is just a chain of events, that my every thought could be traced back to electrons bumping off of each other ever since big bang. But then I decided to look at that thought. And I decided to just witness a thought and not fall into it. But was that decision also deterministic? And that one? And that one? So it goes to an infinite loop and then there is an error and only silence remains. Only consciousness. Determinism and Free Will are the same thing. They both are true. It a paradox.
  13. I am quitting right know after many years and many tries. When it got to the point of three coffees daily I decided - nope. So far it is 1 month without coffee and 2 weeks without any caffeine. I love how easy it is to fall asleep now. I already know that I will be one of those with a looong withdrawal. I am lookin forward the 70 day awesome checkpoint that @flowboy introduced.
  14. Damn. It all started with Ekhart Tolle and Jed McKenna for me years ago. Didn't even know that he is a topic on this forum. Thank you.
  15. I really feel a lot of what you had written and sometimes struggle with it in my own mind. Work. Grind. Save the money. Get good CV. Change to a better place. Do not spend money wastefuly. - thats about survival. When it comes to mind - vibrate peace, hold utopia in your head - you will naturally pour it onto the world. This weird late capitalism stage is just the step towards the Utopia. We will get there. Hold on. Gojira - Grind: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A77sFIxiRQ0 Surrender to the grind Embrace the laws that make you cringe You will be fixed in no time If you go all the way We're wandering in chaos Forget about which reality is real Eternal quest to resolve Our struggle with gravity You're all shredded, you're all scarred Fighting the tide Your tough face on, you think you'll last long Against the grain? Go Surrender to the grind Obey Surrender to the grind The only way Grind
  16. I think Law of Attraction + "Life is a Dream"-Consciousness make up a really nice combination. And is kinda obvious. Just like in a dream you can be extremelly lucid to the point that you can whatever you want with a dream instantly (God). But you can be lucid just enough to realize that it is a dream, but not so much to be able to change whole dream instantly - so when you know it you focus to feel good feelings in a dream because obviously then the dream will get better and better. So you create a dream through that indirect mechanism. Thats how I see it.
  17. There is perfect and there is Perfect. Lower-case imperfection exists and that is part of the upper-case Perfection. Can a blank sheet be perfect? Is it surely less perfect than finished painting? If you would get the message that you are going to die in 5 minutes would it radically deacrease the perfection of your life as then suddenly the room for improvement would be very small? Being conscious of Perfection does not contradict improvement.
  18. Congratulations brother. If you do not mind me asking some shallow questions: 1.how do you earn money nowadays and how do you plan to do that in the future? 2. How does your typical day look like? 3.Do you have a partner? Do you have a "best friend" ?
  19. He was also on impaulsive some time ago in an even cooler outfit:
  20. Also you can think in a very abstract way. Your passion does not to have be defined in this typical way like it is a particular job. Maybe it is looking at the sky whole day. Maybe it is eating pizza. I for example in the past also gave myself a lot of hard time to find my passion. I analyzed my past, what did I do as a kid, who I wanted to be as a kid. And I realized that I also didn't have anything sharply defined and have no clear idea. I was jumping from hobby to other hobby. Quickly loosing interest. I got a lot of critique from parents for this my whole life. And felt bad about myself. And then it clicked that this is exactly what my passion was. The freedom to jump from hobby to hobby. The freedom to be careless and look at the sky. To explore life, and pick the things that resonate.
  21. Our minds are like multidimensional locks. Every piece of the puzzle depends on our past ezperiences, biases etc. So it usually it takes a lot of years to learn to pick the lock but I would think that it is still possible for small rain drop to fall of the sky in just a right way to unlock the lock - which would be the analogy of realizing Truth by watching conceptual video.
  22. You are not your face. You are not your body. You are not even your mind and personality. You are an enigma behind all of it. You are your own element. A force. People can't directly see you, but then can feel you. They can feel what kind of an element you are. They can know you from your vibe. Connection between people never happens beetwin flesh and bones and skin. It happens when You as a certain vibration are with harmony with the other human. Do not worry. Be the vibe you want to be and people will feel it/know you. You are flow. What you are is a vibe. There was a certain style/vibe that was present in that flow state - you were there. On the other hand. If you think you ceased to be, then you experienced death in a way. So no need to think "that you should die". Realize the impermanence of things. All the people you like are going to be gone. Wheter they are real or just your imagination they are going to die some time. And they will never exist ever again. So why not appreciate that blessing? That all those people that you know didn't exist ever before, and will not exist ever again. You managed to be in this little slice of time just perfectly to know them. So love them. As people. As your imagination. Doesn't matter. Appreciate them. No one is going to stay... Again, you are the instrument and lIfe is a song. Of course playing a song is meaningless. Thats why it is so fun! Did you need a meaning to have fun as a kid? Did you need a meaning to be kind and authentic to other people when you were a kid? Play a song you want to play. If you don't like to create song in which you help people then don't. But I guarantee you it is a lot of fun to be an instrument of Love and Understanding. The Fun/Love is meaning. Chill dude. You are going to die anyway. Just see how you will die later. Just be an instrument and play a cool song with you life. PS. I know that you will not understand but you don't need to. Just know that I am you older brother with a higher perspective and I just want you to know that All is Well. It really is. Also a video that helped me some years ago with a deep loneliness and an unfulfilled desire to feel connection: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b_gIXoD4Iro&t=217s&ab_channel=eternalnectar And of course a meme.
  23. @Someone here Congratulations Me <3 Welcome to THIS. I also did not have "kundalini" things happening in my body during my Truth Realizations. Just this huge weird Mind/Mental release feeling.
