The only thing really under your control is your response to whatever is happening. When You suffer, you are less able to make things in situations more empowering or better, when Your at Ease with it (Surrender or Acceptance) then Your more Empowered and able to make things better, that is all You can do. Your no good to your son when Your suffering inside, Your very good to your son when Your at Peace inside, that is all... If You were no one and a nobody, then why all the fuss, why all the drama? Contemplate this, this sort of thinking is coming from ego for sure... Feel Blessed that Your son is doing better, You all got thru it, don't see it as a negative or that You have no power to do something about it, you do, as I said above!

If you say so,,,notta:)

"56 minutes ago, Bandman said: Maybe its not the final station, but it makes me think the ultimate reality and consciousness can never be realized, which is akin to what Islam and Sufism teaches. If you can awaken ever deeper, the ultimate can never be known." Quit exploring with Your Mind and Intellect, You'll never find much with either, Explore with Your Awareness. Think of Awareness as another form of Intelligence, that is not attached to memory or 5 senses in any way, its beyond all that and is more inline with what we refer to as the Absolute, its from that place, once You get in touch with it, Perception opens up to another level altogether, of course our limited minds can't makes sense of it so You can't explain it in words, but You can Experience it, and that is the most important thing, so focus on Awareness, not mentally but by dropping all ideologies, philosophies, likes/dislikes, beliefs, and just being here right Now very intensely, try that and see what happens.. Good Luck to You!!

That's not it, If all those "Infinities" exist, then what does that tell You? It tells that anything can exist, anything can happen, that is Possibility, that is all it is, that doesn't translate to Rape is Absolute, it translates to Rape can Exist, Love can Exist, Hate can Exist, the key word is CAN.. The determining factor is You and Me and Everyone else, are You Aware and Perceptive enough to make the Life Empowering Choice? Rape is not Wrong or Bad, its just Disempowering towards Life (Life is the same as God/Absolute), Lifting someone up off the Ground and Helping them is Empowering to Life, its that simple, quit complicating it with all this philosophizing to support some sort of belief system with huge Assumptions about what God/Absolute/Life is, its simple one thing, POSSIBILITY! We are here to Realize this Possibility via our Awareness and Free Will!

I luv Sly Stallone's story, he was in New York back in the early 70's (before Rocky), he has some bit parts in movies and tv series, but he came to the realization that he would be severely type casted as the Bad Guy or Tough Guy cliche, but he knew he had an active imagination, so he began to write, and write and write screenplays. He was living in a very small apt, he put black paint on the window to get rid of outside distractions, and went out only for food, and just kept on writing, and then he saw the Ali/Wepner fight and that lit a spark and he wrote rough draft of Rocky in 3 days, it was then edited like 50 more times to get it too what we see in the movie, but he had the basic premise within 3 days... So it comes down to a burning desire, and laser like focus, do what it takes to get rid of the distractions and your on your way!

God is about Creation, what if I were to tell You all there was something there before Creation, before God.. then what???

Yes, I watched that one today too I think! He's one of the only ppl that can actually explain Truth using language, English Language that is, and it resonates with Me greatly.. This really changed my POV on things when he said that all experience only happens within You, that You have never experienced anything outside of Yourself, which is true, life changing sharing!

Yes, it is very interesting and is basically how I understand it from the study of Yoga and Hinduism, Brahma or Shiva (Shiva means that which is not), is the fundamental of everything, all of us are Brahma, but we are in form right now with Bodies/Minds, but our essence is Brahma/Shiva, but Yoga acknowledges Form and individuality as well! There are levels to Existence, from Gross to Subtle, Body and Mind are Gross level, Shiva is the most Subtle level..

That may be true, but the point is we are capable of many many emotions, and for most ppl the emotions they feel are random, happening reactively and by accident, not on purpose or consciously, as well she is saying this God of hers is Love as the fundamental quality, how does she know this? We are Potential and Possibility, that means I'm capable of feeling incredible levels of Love, as well as Hate, and everything in btwn, and as well feel nothing, or numbness, so that is what it means to be Human, the only thing is are You choosing what to feel or letting it just happen to You?

You probably know what I'm going to say lol.. I've heard him say these things allot, I don't interpret it as the Solipsism that is talked around here, he is simply saying Experiencially, you have a Feeling of Oneness/Inclusiveness, by which then everything becomes You, this is simply a Experience of Completeness as well... \ From what I gather and hear around here, Solipsism means I am the Only one in Existence, everything everyone else is a figment of my Imagination, that too me is not the same as what Sadhguru is saying, and it Narcissist imo..

What You need to do Keryo is get more involved with ACIM, study it well, digest and experience all it has to offer, it will fill Your Mind with more and more information, just imagine the meme's You can create afterwards, it will be glorious, then after that go study Hinduism, study it well, digest and experience all it has to offer, it will fill Your Mind with even more information, the meme's will be running wild now, in-between studying take some lsd, see where it takes You, that will be fun.,, 30yrs later, death bed has arrived, Keryo wonders, where did the time go, what did I do, what is the point of it all, I still don't have the answers, oh no why is it getting so dark :(:(:(

Yes and all the mumbo jumbo is coming from where? Outside of Yourself, not within... Just look within, find out how Intelligent Your Body is, all the processes that are happening in any given moment within Your body (37 thousand billion billion chemical reactions per second) how is this happening without You knowing it?? Just find out about 100 of them, see what happens after that, then You will know the answers to all the questions!

Its posts like this that cause massive confusion, the post it self is full of confusion and assumption! How do You know that this God is Love? What does Love Mean (I bet You your definition is very different from mine and most all others). What happens if this God is Hate and not Love, since all things created are God and Hate exists??? Its just not smart to attach these sorts of labels to something no one knows little about... All You know is that You are capable at time of Love, Hate, Sadness, Laughter, Excitement, Melancholy, and a plethora of other emotions and feelings, that is all You know, and all everyone knows, and guess what, all of Us are Human!

What would happen if You stopped eating Food? Where does all food come from? If it doesn't come from the Earth, and its completely synthetic, then that is even worse lol!

Was not able to Post or Reply anything for about 10hrs here, is this common on this forum for other users??

Lol, it happened twice before, when I first found this place, but not since then, I too thought maybe I said something off, but there is no warning points on my account so I sort of figured there was a limit of sorts per day... It was a nice break:)

There's all this talk about God, and then how us Humans are BS lol, but all that is here is Humans Lol. Everyone is forgetting that aspect, too much of this God talk, and there is no "God" up there or anywhere, which is what it sounds like people are describing. There is just You, and the rest of Us, and our ability to make up our minds on how we want to Be within Ourselves and how we want to Live this Life, that's it! No God anywhere controls anything, nor is concerned about You or I or any Life here.. Evil is a Human invention, Human's do Evil, once that is realized, that alone will get rid of Evil happening on this planet!

So I just noticed there is this Leo AI, when did this happen???

everything here, on this forum and the way we are communicating is subjective lol, your truth is but a story for me, and visa versa, we are not talking about God or Spirituality in anyway here, we just philosophize and talk around it, it has no real meaning, since in a year this place could be gone or we all move on... Its just a simple sharing, its okay to disagree and do our own thing and understand it as our own thing.. in the end I think we all want the samething!

I like reality as it is, simulations are fine once inawhile but not in this form, but to each their own:)

Or his phone is recording everything he says, does and sees while using it, and via that the AI steals his data and creates his own algorithm to lull him sleep and the take over begins!!:)

These are Experiences, not a God, why make that into the meaning of a God when its a Human thing??? The word "God" is for sure the wrong word to use, Allness, Oneness, Fullness, Absolute, Bliss, Completeness are much better and relatable/understandable within this forum usage!

Leo is looking out for us in lots of ways, its good to set up these limits, and he monitors post/threads really well, as do the mods, for the most part this forum is run very well imo!

Yes, that language used is not proper, unless he believes in the God of the bible sort of God.. This happens allot around here, ppl throwing around words but everyone defines them differently, so it causes confusion... If by God he means an Absolute Intelligence of sorts (not an entity of any sort or Being), that was there always, then Yeah, I agree, it set up the playground for us to play, as an expression of Potential!
