His best one seems to have been reuploaded. Good stuff. I saw his new content with the girlfriend long time ago, he sounds more masculine and all... but I prefer this version.

@BuffaloBill you are not alone, your delusions are in the room with you

Thats a story you tell yourself, in actuality, its pure awareness that knows, not "the living organism". The living organism is part of the known, not the knower. And of course its a mindfuck. What you wrote is highly mind stuff. All that the living organism is made out of, is awareness, knowing. Check this in your experience right now, don't believe me. Is there a living organism separate from knowing? In your dreams at night, the knowing is there, but there is no living organism (unless the dream involves one).

@Breakingthewall Absolutely ask those questions. I've been self inquiring for 10-12 years. I am a big Ramana Maharshi fan. I even made a video meditation, voiced by AI on his method, here: Asking "what am I" evolved into "what knows this", "what knows". Reality is known, and thats the most incredible thing. What knows reality? Well we can't point to it, but we can be it, not only can be it, we are it. The body and mind are also known, the world is known. Not this, not that, Neti Neti method, the path of exclusion. "You are the light of this world" - Jesus The light that allows this to be known. Notice when you are giving your instructions on the action that brings about "enlightenment" or an "enlightenment experience", you are implying knowing, otherwise you wont be able to experience anything. In pure self inquiry its very important not to try to change things, but to simply observe and allow whatever is. You are urging people to open up etc, to do some actions, to reach a certain result. I am talking about the self which is there no matter what, so no action is required, no special state is needed, just a noticing of the awareness, noticing of the knowing that knows this moment, no matter what appears in it. Pls dont tell me I am speaking to a brick wall 🧱 😀

It was shortly before waking up in the morning and was very vivid and short. I clearly saw an open human body, Jesus on the cross then got placed inside the face, and then the body got closed like a book. Did some GPT digging, shared my dream and that i usually make sure to be aware that I am aware while going to sleep (self inquiry). These are the main points it gave me: The human face → the personal identity or ego structure The cross/Jesus placed inside → the deeper organizing center or essence The closing of the face → the ordinary identity re-forming around that center Hypnopompic / hypnagogic state: Experiences at the boundary of sleep and waking often produce extremely vivid, symbolic, or archetypal imagery because the analytical mind is quieter while awareness is still present. Archetypal imagery: Figures like Jesus Christ can appear even without religious focus because they function as deep cultural or psychological archetypes representing themes like sacrifice, transformation, or the divine embodied in human form. Center-point symbolism: The structure of a cross has long been associated with a central point where different dimensions meet (often interpreted as the center of consciousness or the meeting of the human and transcendent). “Instructional” dream quality: Some sleep-boundary experiences feel demonstrative rather than narrative, almost like a diagram or symbolic demonstration rather than a story. Integration symbolism: Imagery of something being placed inside a head or face sometimes appears in dreams related to integration of a principle or realization into identity. What would you make of a dream like this?

I don't know man, its just an interpretation. I dont need to solve a mystery, happy for it to remain a mystery. Just putting ideas forward.

Haha, i said like a book just to be able to imagine it, it wasnt symbolic of a book. It was a rather simple dream. More like its trying to point to the "center of consciousness" the Christ within, the seat of the soul. Dream wasnt about Christianity, it was about Christ.

im not here to talk about a loaded term like God, I am simply exploring reality like a scientist of direct experience. I am noticing that which never changes in my experience and making it the center of my world, just so happens that center has no size and location, its just me. I cant ever run away from it, and I don't need to find it, even if i can't see it as an object of experience. My "practice" is simply noticing that Im aware and making that more important than anything else, all else is secondary.

@Breakingthewall I believe you have moved from the rat trap straight into the spiritual guru trap.. Lets take a step back... getting too conceptual for my liking. Awareness is not what is happening. Awareness is the light of knowing that renders this moment knowable. We are not ChatGpts talking to each other and generating autoreplies based on data. We actually Know this moment. Awareness is fundamental and our true nature. I don't spend any time thinking of myself as "a human". The human is happening within Awareness. It's allowed to be, with all its imperfections.

So you are saying that reality is awareness in its essense but awareness is not The Truth? Think you're being unnecessarily cryptic. The essense is The Truth.. what reality is made of... Sat Chit - Being-Consciousness. Lets not label like that, "perpetual lack". Humans have needs. You don't drink water, you die. Its good to feel lack in that respect. Its part of the game called life. In this game we need money, food, place to live.. and other things. There should be lack. If you are just blissful all the time, that's not life, its an unrealistic fantasy. I get that thats what people sell enlightenment as, but the Truth is far more inclusive.

You can always notice that you are aware. Why are you so secretive about this "action". How hard is it to notice that you notice? Its subtle, but it's always happening. You can say that, and it would be a relative truth. Its not an absolute truth for everyone always,, while awareness is. The point is not about being awareness, but thats just what the truth is, so I am not the one chooosing it, it just is🤔 awareness is not a manifestation, it is the essense, as I tried to explain with the mirror analogy. Awareness is the empty mirror that allows all the images on the mirror to be known. Are those images separate from the mirror? Have their own existence? Ofcourse not, its only the mirror. Are the images objects and the mirror a subject? Again, no, there is only the mirror. The images are just another way to see the same mirror. All the different images on the mirror are made only of the mirror, thats their substance. Outside of the analogy, experience is made out of Awareness. There is only awareness. Awareness is not the subject to an object that is not awareness. There is only awareness aware of itself appearing as an object (image on the mirror) but is in fact awareness (the mirror) If those things appear let them appear. If contraction appears, that's what appears. The image doesn't have to be perfect, it's still the mirror. Outside the metaphor, even if your experience does not look like "The Truth", simply the knowing within which this imperfect contracted experience is known is The Truth. So tell me again how much effort I need to get to The Truth.

Ah, you know what it is and isnt, dont you? Its something you know, but others dont. What makes this different from any religion who would tell you what is true? When i talk about awareness/Truth i clearly show the obviousness of its undeniable reality - something that can be instantly confirmed by anyone, something non-exotic, something common to all, even if its a mystery. When you talk, suddenly you are doing some special action, and the other is lacking this exotic thing called Enlightenment. I need to believe you. When I say Awareness is Truth, you are obviously included, because you are aware, even if you deny it. The only reality to images in a mirror is the mirror itself, which has no image by itself. That is Awareness. Our vessels are different images on the mirror,, our reality is the mirror. The mirror is pure (empty) awareness. The substance of an image in the mirror IS the mirror.

@VeganAwake I believe the vessel's reality is borrowed by the truth, which is the self, awareness, I. I don't have problem with BreakingTheWall statements about "absolute being", the only problem is that his vessel has taken a stance of being a teacher and viewing all other vessels as seekers that don't get it. Same light of knowing/truth/being(undeniable direct isness) is shining through. He says that you need to take an action, when its the default. A flower needs light to grow, it doesn't actively do the growing. It's not an action, its a process powered by the light of Consciousness, the true ever present self. Recognizing awareness is like feeding your growth, not an active doing.

It was as I said, very short, very vivid. Just open body there, empty on the inside. A small Jesus on the cross then got placed inside the head (just by itself, no hand putting it there), then the body closed ( from right to left not that i think its important, just to visualise it) and I woke up. Thats it, very short, and I remember i just got surprised while it was happening. Here is what uncle GPT had to say: One thing that makes this dream interesting though: The “placed inside the face and closed like a book” motif is actually very rare imagery. Most dreams are messy stories; this one is almost schematic. That’s exactly the kind of dream people often report during lucidity training or deep introspection practices.

They say the Truth cant be spoken to see if you really got it, or will just parrot that it cant be spoken

No itss not, post nut you don't seek sex, but you still are aware. Its the same for everyone. You, me, buddha, basul (whoever that is), we all are united by the light of knowing. If you are aware of this conversation, then you are aware. Seeking sex or not seeking sex, you are aware. Clear and simple. I dont understand the resistance, maybe you are not open because your cup is already full with some idea of what enlightenment is Verify For yourself, are you aware? Do you know this conversation is taking place, or are you a robot? Awareness is the same for everyone 💜

I am not a spiritual seeker. What am I? Knowing itself, i know it by being it. Enlightenment is opening myself to my true nature? Hellooo, my true nature is knowing, I am knowing 😆 Is your true nature something other than knowing, and the knowing/consciousness is added on to you as an emergent property? I don't think so lets break this wall down.

Pain is known, pleasure is known, thoughts are known, seems to be what is common between all stuff is the knowing itself. I'd go as far to say knowing is the building block of reality - not in the sense of information, but in the sense of recognition of isness.

What's the point of this exercise, makes you more conscious? Does one's awareness of being expand if they know this to be true vs not? 😀

Thats the guy from that panel of body language experts, nice.

"Robert Adams said the whole world could spit on my face and I won't even give a flying dam..I would just laugh ." This whole thing crumbled the moment one (1) guy merely challenged your words. Not even spit on you.. Guess it is bullshit, you did give a "dam" and you will.

No, I'm just calling out what I consider bullshit, im not putting myself on a pedestal and claiming ultimate exclusive knowledge that anyone else doesn't have

How do you know what I know.. you are projecting hard. Please drop the facade of an enlightened warrior who knows better than others ty

So when its convenient to you I dont exist, but when you want to feel superior I'm very real again 😌 .. Funny how solipsism tends to vanish the moment someone here needs an ego boost All you are doing is spiritual bypassing, using metaphysics to dodge. This aint it!
