@Anton Rogachevski With ego death you dont know anything, you BECOME it. Its a merging with reality. Imagine being blasted out of your body and into your sensory field, thats ego death

That I am ness actually turns out to be nothing

@Anton Rogachevski absolute truth is literally undeniable,you're either an entity in your head or you're not, ego death shows this isnt the case. ego death is not only simple , its that which cannot be simpler, cannot be further reduced.

or im speaking from genuine insights

@Gabriel Antonio well i cant communicate without words so i am extremely limited here. These words are just maps but are not the territorry. The word 'car' wont get u from a to b but if i told you to get in the car, you would know i meant to get in the object.

awareness is all there is, not matter, not space, just awareness

be as ambitious as you want it wont matter when you're dead, whats really important is living a life in which you're loving every moment and consumed by the beauty and mystery of life. I mean sages are hardly ambitious they hide away in their cave. I know that wouldn't be desirable for a lot of people though.

depends if they want to listen

After my Horrifying yet incredibly beautiful DMT trip, my higher self or God as my mind wishes to call it came to the conclusion that my mind is going to have to be brutally honest with itself and that this is the best news ever. I wouldn't necessarily say its my conversation thats off , although it still needs a lot of work, my biggest obstacle with talking to women is getting my mind to relax. The times I recall that I've had amazing interactions with women is when I've been entirely present and relaxed. Approaching isnt even hard when you're relaxed, you see a woman give you look of interest and conversation just flows out of you, if you arent relax you might as well not bother approaching as you're not going to be in the right mental state to lead a conversation. Most of this requires getting rid of a load of bullshit and old thinking patterns out of your head

@Leo Gura My issue with relaxing comes down to a deeply held belief that being uninhibited and letting go will make me do something foolish or offend somebody. The ego believes it self regulates me and the higher self shouldn't be let out as it will run amok. Its like imagine letting somebody you dont know take your car out for a spin, wouldn't you be worried they'd wreck it??. So not being relaxed and inhibited is not giving this person the keys

I majourly falsely believed " In order to have a relationship ( a healthy one) you have to not want one and you can't fake it either, it has to be genuine realisation that you do not need other people" I believed this but didnt feel it or practice it. In reality I was constantly on a mission to find a girlfriend. Recently I had an epiphany that I can be all alone and still be happy a girlfriend could leave me and I genuinely be like "This is fine , reality is perfect, how can it be otherwise" and this isnt just me bullshitting myself, so that I trick myself out of a negative thought pattern. Detachment goes full circle , you become so detached from needing anyone, that your love just spills over into all of reality, everything is beautiful , everything is perfect and the irony is this when people gravitate towards you. When you need someone, they just see it as you wanting a relationship to avoid being single and they feel like you are using them and don't give a shit about them, because from that perspective the relationship is all about you. When I hit it off with a girl now, I now approach it with the perspective of schrodingers relationship, until we've genuinely got to know each other we both be consider compatible and not compatible, you know like schrodingers cat experiment , where its either dead or alive until you open the box. Still stops you fixating on a person and being open to any possibility seeing either outcome as beautiful. YOU DO NOT NEED ANYONE TO BE HAPPY.

Everyday i'm becoming more and more conscious of the fact that my time on this planet is fleeting and temporal, The biggest blocks in my life right is the knowledge of loosing loved ones, I try to savour every moment with them and not take them for granted like I did as a child,but when I see them it doesn't feel enough like drinking salt water to full-fill your thirst. Ultimate peace for me would be knowing I might never see them ever again tomorrow and still be happy, because right now I feel they're essential to my fullfillment in life

I know this sounds arrogant and conceited, but everywhere I look people are just sucked into pop culture and mindless entertainment , talking about justin bieber or talk shows or some new fad. Whenever I visit back home I see my family stuck in front of the tv watching the same old soap operas. My housemates love deep conversations about spirituality, humanity and life etc, but seems more orange spirituality like they engage in it if they found it entertaining. Rather disillusioned by dating, my self actualization development and spiritual interests are not compatible with their lives, they rather just go through the motions of what everyone else is doing working for tomorrow only to come home and do the same mind numbing stuff everyone else is doing. Then theirs women who preach about spirituality on their bio to seem cool, but if you mentioned it , it soon becomes clear they dont care about it at all or know anything about. I've met a few women that were into deeper topics and interests but they didnt agree with psychedelics and thought of me as druggie waster if i planned a trip. I feel as I delve deeper in spirituality and self actualization, I will become more isolated, I'm not to bothered about it, I don't need anyone and still enjoy going out to learn about people and myself,but I can't just stand by and get sucked into this unconscious rat race. Can they not see they're going to be dead soon, they'll blink twice and they'll be sitting in a nursing home wondering where all those years went. My great uncle was a quiet man, I assume he probably has mild autism like me, but it wasnt a known 'thing' back then. He started to open up to me in hospital in his last year that he'd wished he'd taken so many opportunities, i asked him what his biggest regret was and he said " all my life I never felt truly myself, like I was just following what was expected of me, back in my day people were close enough to being forced to get married , pressured to have children and work endlessly to maintain all that and if you didn't follow that, you be an outcast". I Suppose things are better nowadays, my parents and their friends aren't trying to push me and their daughter together or work a specific job or have specific interests, but most people seem asleep.

have the best of fun with your loved ones these holidays, but don't have too much to drink and avoid spiritual practices as you will loose touch with the beauty of life and happy new year

1. swearing is fine in a relaxed environment and not used to intimidate everyone.2 I'd roll my eyes at that insult, like its so lame 3. someones sex life is noone elses business. 4. just ignore it mate or have a witty comeback

I have high functioning autism so i doubt i would be much use to the military, try and get out on medical grounds and if not community service. I don't agree with government having the right to tell me what to do with my vocation so i would protest it relentlessly

I've tested this out vigorously in my daily life and discovered that I react a certain way because I BELIEVE that it has a benefit for me, me being the egoic self. If i feel sad because someone made fun of me or i was rejected, i honestly believe that feeling sad as an emotional response helped me because it would push me to learn and not have that occur again. Of course this belief is bullshit because there are a million different reason why you were rejected, maybe you just weren't their type. Feeling sad though literally does nothing but push you back into your shell and not try other approaches with other people as you construct an identity that your hopeless and unloveable. As the saying goes "no point crying over spilt milk". When people judge you, they are creating separation from you so that they feel distinct from you, taking it personally as you believe what ever they say and getting upset cements your belief of being a certain way. You won't allow yourself to consider that they may be wrong because then you don't know who you are anymore. Taking feedback is fine, but as soon as you make it personal its all ego and beliefs. Fearing something that will happen in the future, you don't know whats going to happen its all beliefs. I'm not talking about your survival instinct and enlightenment person doesn't need beliefs to not step out in front of a bus. Survival instinct is innate. Can you allow yourself to not know who you are, only then can you be open to truth of who you are

If you switch consciousnesses with somebody therefore 'you' were in their body and 'them' in yours thinking that you were the other person, then a scientist deleted both of your memories, you would no longer identify as the other person so you would think you were that body all along. Which indicates how we are all just an idea in the infinite awareness

why did the universe ever create the ego, it makes no sense to me

Love makes everything one , no your or me just one

how does that relate to love?

@Prabhaker I dont see why the universe would create the ego so it could become enlightened again

@Viking Love unifies everything , ego separates

why contribute to the mass slaughter, NATOs actions actively work against world peace
