Yes but the key question is "Are You Accessing It?", if not then Ultimate Reality is not in Your Perception/Experience and therefore not real for You, so its Relative Reality always first and foremost, all this talk about Ultimate/Absolute reality is BS if it is not in Your Perception/Experience.. Yoga is one way to access it and keep it as a foundational experience while here and doing normal daily work and responsibilities, unless You want to dissolve and no longer do normal daily life as most of us are, then what is the point of talking about something that is not the reality for most, it creates fantasy and means nothing...

This is Ultimate Truth, but we are here in Relative Truth, not Ultimate Truth place or Absolute realm or whatever You want to call it, so lots of the talk around here is coming from the Ultimate Truth or Absolute realm experience, which is a misnomer if You are still here with a Body/Mind Complex in place and suffering it in any minor or major way (this could mean a certain desire is not fulfilled and you crave it, or something more serious is happening that affects Your experience of life in this moment).. You can say this or that about what is happening here around You in the world or within You doesn't mean anything, is a dream or imaginary bla bla bla, but it doesn't mean a thing when You still have to shit in the morning and eat in the morning and then go to work to make a living to sleep it off on the weekend and it makes Your Experience less than Peacefulness at anytime...

This is what I described as the 1st meaning, Your individually Aware of Reality and Truth.. We seem on this thread to be talking about the 2 definitions I laid out and intermixing it in our discussions, some talking about my 1st description as above, and others talking about the 2nd description where Consciousness is the same as Brahman or Shiva. I wouldn't use words like "Imagination or Dream" as those invoke a sense of not real, much rather say Consciousness is Infinite Intelligence that is both a creative force and non creative force since it was there before all Creation happened..

The more You guys try to figure this stuff out the further away You will get, whatever experience You have had, just vibe into it, as long as it is empowering, go with it, the only distinction You need to make is is it Empowering or Disempowering towards life, what does that mean, in simple term any suffering You have or feel does not allow Potential to exist, healthy living does, being Happy, Joyful, Blissful, Clarity, Exuberance, Intensity, etc all allow Potential to exist, Potential is just You are growing, what bothered You yesterday does not bother You anymore in simple terms, it gets more complex but when You feel one or inclusive with everything, You actually realize that tree is a part of me, and me a part of it, in experiential ways, then that is Potential being Realized...

Of course there is talking, that has to be done in this day and age.. From what I understand in India years and years ago, there was much less talking, the ppl were more sensitive they could recognize a Guru and the Spiritual Transmission was done mostly in silence.. What the Guru does besides talking is to just use his presence and ability to read karmic structures and via his energy system sort of fix Yours, they share methods, actual practical methods like yoga postures, pranayama, mantras/chanting, devotional practices, temple building and using it for enhancement purposes for those interested, etc etc,., so it goes way beyond a teacher talking and You listening and then contemplating it, or by reading a book, true spiritual path is way more than this, the Guru works on levels beyond our comprehension!

ditto... what You don't perceive does not exist for You!

The Ability to Exert Free Will is dependent on ones level of Consciousness, most ppl I would say have a low degree of Free Will and Consciousness, they live on the Survival level of life, but the higher up levels of Consciousness within One will give them more access to Free Will..

Free Will is absolutely available, You chose to reply did You not? Free Will is what makes Humans different from all other life forms on this planet!

Loving them can be Tough Love, Serving Them could be a Kick in the Ass, Telling the Truth can be not telling them everything right now, and it is all One:)

What I mean by intellectual is that it is talking and You listening, its You having to understand the words being heard by your ears and then interpreting them, its a Jnana Yoga approach I think, no problem with it, some get it and vibe off him for sure, maybe just his presence is what You feel, I think he must share some methods too, maybe that is not what they share much of online...

There seems to be a couple of meanings for the word "Consciousness", most have it mean an Individuals level of Awareness of Reality and Truth, or their Level of Wakefulness. Another meaning is that Consciousness is the basis of our Existence, what was there before the supposed Big Bang, it means the same as Brahman or Shiva (That which is Not), a Grand Sort of Intelligence, not memory based or calculation based, but something that is foundational, and complex/sophisticated that it exists in the unmanifested and manifested and at every level, Gross level like trees, planets, Us, Subtle level like Atoms, Molecules, Cells and within things even more Subtle like Kundalini and Ojas!

The System for sure is not for the Majority since the Majority does not own all of the Wealth, the richest 1% own half of the Wealth that is all we need to know. Its not a personal thing, no one is out to specifically get YOU, but its a systemic thing definitely. We have more of everything today than ever before, more food, security, technology, information, means to get things done, but look at USA the leader of the world, that country is dying a slow death, addictions are everywhere, low paying jobs with no job security, high rents, most everything is collapsing, no different anywhere else, Canada is worse... If we don't raise Human Consciousness up a few notches, the only thing that will stop this is some major catastrophe of some sort, where everything just stops for a long period of time (worse than Covid).. then some sort of reset may happen or we are just done..

Talking is okay, its gets things started, but it cannot be a primary or even secondary method, it only goes so far, its intellectual and that is my only problem with Mooji and others like Rupert and in many ways Tolle...no method is really shared, just talking talking talking..makes ppl stay in that very beginning stage of Awakening, for very few it elevates them..

I enjoy his Talks. We have a variety of Masters to fulfill the need of so many varying personality types, on the surface level we need varied masters that can relate to that, so that the individual person gets involved with Spiritual Matters, my only thing with Mooji, and many others is what is their method, exactly what do they share that is practical to the person interested, not sure what that is with Mooji!

Its not a Belief, there are Others on the Body Mind level.. No use in talking or thinking in terms of the Absolute, that is not what is here, one must focus on what is here, what are You dealing with. Only things is that as a Human You can access the Absolute as an Experience, make it Your Core, but Your Action and Functioning is here, in this dual world with plenty of "Others" that will affect Your Life and way of doing Action, when not doing Action then merge with Absolute as the most profound Experience, this will center You like nothing will!

Yes but He Consciously creates his Ego and Identity for a specific purpose, he can change it all Will, most cannot do this, plus he makes the most sense!

Talk on AI!

According to Yogananda the Astral Plane is akin the Heaven as it is referred to in the Bible, seems like once there wholly then anything You want to have happen can happen by the power of Your Mind, and he says there is a level beyond this as well...

I knew the Real One would appear! May we all bow down to the Lord Saviour, YoUr TiMe hAs CoMe!!! :):):)

Ok. For sure we have to accept what is, as a natural thing, not an intellectual exercise, if You down in the dumps, that is the way it is right now, accept it with Ease. I like to look at this stuff from a Third person POV, overall empowering emotions are healthy, disempowering ones are not so healthy. In one camp there are those that think we should feel all the emotions we are capable of having, I see the point here its like "why limit myself to just empowering emotions, I want to feel all of it", the other camp is "I just want to feel good all the time", the cool part about being human is that You can choose btwn both or neither, feel numb all the time is another option, its up to the individual really. Personally, I've had depression and anxiety, never want to go back there again, so its empowering emotions and experience is all I really want to have...

Pseudo Spirituality! - Everything is God, if everything is God, then everything is Okay - Everything is Imaginary, or a Dream, there is no Trueness, Materialism, Physicality, or anything beyond that because it all a figment of the Mind. - Only I exist, everything else comes from a projection of my Mind - Nothing is really Happening, nor did anything ever Happen, nor will anything Happen in the Future, hence nothing has any Meaning - I am not Responsible for anything because everything is God, if God did not want it too be happening he would not have created it, so I am not Responsible - Because I have no Responsibility for anything, why do anything as nothing has Meaning or Purpose - I am GOD Real Spirituality! - God/Absolute is Everywhere, within Me and the Rock beside me and in the sky, air, plants, shit, and anything that I can sense and not sense. - Life is infinite Intelligence, that is what God is, via that Intelligence PotentialPossibility is the fundamental nature of God/Absolute - All Life is an aspect of this Potential/Possibility equation, but not all Life is equal or the same, there are Levels to everything in Existence - The Fundamental Structure of all Life is the same, but different forms of Life have different Capabilities - Human Beings are gifted with the Highest Capabilities of all Life on this Planet, we have the most sophisticated Nervous System, Neurological System. most developed Intellect, and the Highest Potential to be Conscious or Unconscious - Free Will, the Ability to Respond and Choose is the Missing Link to It All, this gives Us total control over How we are within ourselves, and our ability to control our Destiny, but to activate our Free Will abilities we have to be extremely Conscious and Aware of Reality/Truth/Absolute/God.. -Bliss is the safest path, via the path of Bliss, You become devoid of Self, no more Fear, or self concern, then Your absolutely Free from karma and bondage, using any other way is more dangerous and risky and can take more lifetimes - Karma is the residual effect of all the action that has ever taken place, cause and effect, its is what makes the Universe and Materialism/Duality Possible, without it You would not be able to exist as You are, its the Bubble surrounding the Life that You fundamentally are within It. Burst the Buddle and individuality is over for You.. Karma is ingrained in every aspect of what You are, it the underlining Software that structures Your Life on a certain path, You don't decided what path You are on, but You decide How to walk the path You are ON
