No person actions life, actions are one singular movement. You might not yet be aware of that but eventually you’ll become aware of that because that’s all that’s happening. A person actioning is about as real as a dream is real.

So do you think humans are capable of higher consciousness then? What about the genes that made Einstein who figured out the nuclear bomb, and the genius of every authoritarian human who is responsible for governing the minions. Who have collectively agreed to booby trapped their own planetary home, our Mother Earth who sustains us, with radiation of such a massive quantity now that it has the potential to kill every biological creature on the planet. Do you mean that higher gene?

But I’m seriously not even desiring to be as conscious as Ralston. I’m just absolutely content being me, and that’s enough, thanks. Ralston is not immune to the inevitable consequences of being a natural living cellular organism. If he’s Levi then I’m happy to be Primark. I might be Levi in my next earthly adventure, who knows, and who actually cares.I’ll always be what I am, and will never be not what I am.

You cannot see or know the absolute because you’re already the seeing and the knowing that cannot be seen or known. Thats my version of the absolute. You can have your own, and it won’t change my version. You can only understand you, not be understood by other, because there simply isn’t another absolute.

Yes I understand that, but all those higher conscious experiences are just what’s happening within the physical body that is conscious of them. Only consciousness is experiencing these experiences as and when the experience is happening to consciousness. Consciousness then, can describe its experience simply because it’s capable of witnessing them happening to it. From the perspective of the consciousness here as and through the experience of Mellowmarsh, that’s the only consciousness happening. And from the perspective of the consciousness there as and through the experience of Miguel , that’s the only consciousness that’s happening. Leo has already explained this in his Solipsism video.

@Breakingthewall The seer is never seen. The knower is never known. That’s all I need to understand. This can be recognised, and then it’s enough. It doesn’t even demand an explanation, because it’s simply one with itself, and not even with. Just this, not knowing knowing.

But you are talking about the physical appearance of the body, and the named label attached or identified with that body. I agree no one else can be Ralston, there’s only Ralston being Ralston, without doubt or error. Now if we were to talk about my body, then I could say the same thing. I could say no one else was as good as me when I was at my peak. Anyone with a physical body can say no one else will be as good or reach the level of peakness that I have. It’s pointless trying to compare yourself to others, when we’re all our own unique never to be repeated sparks of the same flame so to speak.

Okay, but I have listened to these freaks, but the freak doesn’t concern me, it’s the message I pay more attention to, the words used are like tool that come in many shapes and forms, all from the same toolbox. But it is only I who ultimately chooses to decide which tool is useful for me when it comes to my own personal self understanding. My point is, all of us who are seeking self understanding, reach a recognition that the tools in the toolbox belongs to all of us, not just one person.

Probably because they’re not him. People can only be the person they are being, not someone else. What Ralston does is down to his own capacity to understand himself. Others can do the same with their own self. To compare your own understanding of yourself with others has never crossed my mind, so those who try to compare themselves with what others do, is just plain dumb imo.

But probably those people who will not be able to do it are not even listening to people such as the likes of the Ralston’s among us. Most people I know have no interest in spiritual awakening. People already have the intelligence to understand what works for them and don’t need someone else to tell them what works for them. If people are interested in the message mouthpiece of Ralston, then it’s up to the listener to take away from the message by making up their own mind about what they are hearing, where they can make their own informed decision as to whether what they are hearing works for them or not, not to just believe or take Ralston’s word for it, literally. Kind of like a try before you buy thingy. This is obvious.

Okay Leo, in the dream of the personal I , it’s unwise to try to end suffering. Suffering isn’t personal, but sufferings effect is quite palpable within the sensory organisms awareness, it is real enough, but not personal, so yes, it’s just better to be okay with it, rather than to try end it, like one could possibly do that, in the same context one can’t end their blood from being pumped around the body by the heart. I personally don’t believe Ralston was talking about ending suffering literally, I think he was referring to the personal ownership of suffering. Even the personal ownership of suffering can be okay with it knowing that everything with a nervous system feels the same suffering making the suffering less personal and more bearable, even endurable. I once heard a story about a woman who was being beaten to a pulp by her jealous lover, she survived thankfully and recalled after feeling much pain in the beginnings of the beating, after a while she said she just stopped feeling the pain, or the body just filtered the pain out altogether. I find that quite interesting tbh. Obviously one would have to have this experience for it to be proven. But if that’s what she says, and it’s true then maybe there’s a limited threshold of pain that the body endures before it shuts down the pain completely.

The awareness of concept is a known that cannot be known by the concept. What is the knower of a concept without making the knower a concept. This immediate moment is unwritten, pure and not-knowing. Self - reflection is a synthetic fiction. I don’t know about less intelligence. Intelligence is running through very fabric of all living organisms, not specifically special to humans. I would imagine a cockroach scuttles around its environment with the same sense of self importance. But this is all just conceptual storytelling of course.

Who on earth is trying not to suffer, name someone or something?
