God

@ShugendoRa You could say that you can't in fact, since thoughts are an automatic phenomenon which isn't under your conscious cotrol. You can however, have pseudo-control through letting go and helping god to help you. Judging is your way to not look at your own shadow. (Denial) You don't see that you have a potential for darkness which is a part of you. Love yourself completely. Also curative awareness and prayer might help. Try to practice the Hoʻoponopono method for relieving hatred and freeing the flow of unconditional love.

Before looking for god directly, one looks in many places. There are hints of divinity all around, it's god's foreplay.

Thank you for sharing unique and diffrent material I'd otherwise miss. I like to think of fear as the calling of god to hear him, through prayer and meditation. Cheers!

Nothing you experience is real. Normal or psychedelic. Nothing is real, and nothing is unreal, these are binary categories of the mind. If you hit my toe, I would feel pain, but what does it prove? In a dream, if one hits his toe he also feels pain.

Enlightenment sure is cool, yet there are things more important in this work: Shadow work Spiritual purification Quiet mind/Concentration Epistemology Emotional intelligence Cleaning your life Relationships Fixing Unhealthy Habits and Behaviour Enlightenment works well with all those, but it's not all those. It's the crown of all development. But put a crown on a crook and you get zen devil. It's absolutely worthwhile in healing suffering and living authentically. When it's right for you, you won't have doubts about trying it. Don't push yourself if you don't need it right now. First develop basic survival skills. If you do chose to seek truth, research deep and extensively to understand intellectually what "enlightenment" really means, it's very easy to get it wrong, since it's so ineffable and mysterious. There are a lot hearsay out there, and you need to separate wheat from chaff.

Seems like empathy. But I guess "empathy" is not as simple as I might think. I believe it has something to do with our inherent unity, so the moment of feeling what "others" feel is a realization of this very unity. Reminded me of this gorgeous song:

@Ampresus Isn't that what you are doing right now? Sharing experiences is the most human thing to do. There's a deep need to be seen, and if one doesn't have it, he starves. We are a social animal.

@Galyna @now is forever This is a great discussion, and I resonated with many things you said. Meaning is maya, and it's the magical creation of god, not seprate from god. Cheers

How do you know that? please tell me how you reached this insight.

I didn't realize this. Also there are red pill women groups, basically many women sympathize and understand red pill men. Anyway, thank you for the discussion. Cheers.

This only shows how little you understand red pill theory. Perhaps you are confusing it with incels. Red pill is basically personal development and positive masculinity. It's about understanding women and letting go of hatred. Taking self responsibilty and building healthy long term relationships based on the new theory. It explains beautifully why toxic relationships are formed, and explains how to avoid common traps.

@now is forever One should first thoroughly research instead of prematurely judging and bombing something. You can do it with any teaching, find one little flaw and disqualify the whole. Don't throw the baby with bathwater.

Because it's beneficial.

Excuse me, but do you let people in your house and let them shit all over the carpet? The only thing I do disagree with is dissing Red Pill. You really miss out if didn't check it out properly. Sure, since it's open, there are many radical strays, but pure red pill theory is amazing. Read Rollo Tomassy's work. It has some good points about our society' inclination towards romanticism. They are not against woman, but actually explain in the best way how to not create a toxic dependant relationship. Remember, openmindedness.

That's already the case. There's no such thing as ego. Only attachment without an attacher.

@Galyna Hello and thank you for your input, there's much wisdom in whay you say, reminded me of Alan Watts' teaching. Also It's a common mistake to confuse enlightenment for nihilism, but it's not it. Nihilism is atheism in the sense that you don't believe in meaning. If you think: "There's no meaning." It implied meaning. Also when you say it you cancel your own words, because they too are of no meaning, if you claim nothing has meaning. I like to think there's infinite meaning. Cheers and good luck on your path!

@SoonHei At best one could say it's recontextualizion of what is. It's the same but you look at it differently.

"The only thing I know is that I don't know." Socrates Thank you for your support. "I don't get it" is a good sensation which will lead to truth if you go full on with it. Raise your doubt by inquiry to the point you are so doubtful of everything it will all pop. (That's the zen method of koan) Godspeed.

If you clicked it means you still don't get it. There's no secret! No special treat or hidden message. You are it, so stop thinking you need to find some hidden secret to "become" enlightened. Consider yourself trolled, but for a good purpose I'm not innocent either, I also look for outer solutions sometimes, thinking this book, finally I will learn something new and cool, and I will be enlightened. Good luck to you dear traveler, Cheers.

This is a momentary state, and not it. That which is constant between states is it. The only reason to not see the obvious is the desire for more and more. Let go of desire and see that you are there, and you were there all along, before you were born, after you die you will be there. Hint: You can't let go of desire. But you sure can pray it away. Check out my post about prayer in my blog. Best prayer for this case is: "Your will be done."

Try to visualize the fact that only a 4.5 billion years ago you were a dust speck in a vacuum, and now you can be aware of that fact. You can build cities, and launch a rocket into space, you can create the most amazing pieces of art. How come? how could a speck of dust do all this?

To sum it I would like to share my personal list of disillusion that helps me focus: There's no secret, no teaching, no master, no book, no path, no method or practice, nothing to realize, no one to realize, no enlightenment, no non-enlightenment, no ego, no god, no awareness, no consciousness, nothing to do, nothing to not do, no destination, no goal and no wisdom to help you become what you already are! Just be it. Thank you for reading, and for your presence. Godspeed.

Living aware organisms. I look at all the architecture we built and it amazes me continually, that we were once just a one cell organism striving to survive. And before that space dust in a vaccum flying around.
