Knowing the answer is not the same as solving the problem.

@AlwaysBeNice Beautiful video. I always stress to myself that both relative and absolute must co-exist forever and ever and ever! Amen

Do you want to sell sugared water all your life or do you want to change the world? -- Steve Jobs, to John Sculley (former Pepsi executive)

There is no certain way an enlightened being is... The enlightenment you study is a fabrication of the mind and does not exist - it has been said and you know it, but you keep on thinking that your idea of enlightenment is what it is supposed to be based on what you've been told. No, enlightenment does not mean you are pro psychedelics. In fact if you cannot recognise it here now without any external help, it's not important, so dont chase it. Or chase it. The idea I'm trying to communicate is there is no right and wrong doing.

You lost me :-D not what I had in mind Not my first hand experience that is

How much empty space do you need to be fulfilled? How much empty space does empty space need to be fully filled?

When the universe teases your notification addicted ego :-D :'( :'( :'(

Harness the energy from the fear and anxiety and use it to overcome the fear and anxiety. Turn fear and anxiety into fuel, and let it fuel you into living life fully.

Maybe they would be as real as the one we are in right now... Meaning they might, or might not be real. But the experience of them would definitely be real.

Both True and False at the same time? And neither true nor false too? And just true? And just false? And not even those mentioned above? But at the same time those mentioned above? roflmao??

Sitting here in the park, getting high on O2. I am overdosing on it and I've been doing it since birth I think. O2-MegaThread: The invisible high.

How do I let my true self be aware of itself? It's utterly wild. It does not know itself at all. It's my biggest nightmare. If my true self is nothing in existence, then I must reside outside of existence. Maybe we are the outside of existence, the nothingness that is eternally here. Now.

The mind trying to achieve something we already are.. Because it perceives emptiness as lack from it's illusory point of view. Every point of view is an illusory point of view! Thats my reasoning behind agreeing with what you wrote :-D But the search is important in order for one to realise they have forgotten who they trully are. Nothing is to be achieved, but there's a lot to be unachieved- the clouds which are covering up our true nature! Disclaimer : I don't know what im talking about.

Only part of the story, but true

If you're aware, the experience is real - even if it's in a dream.

and another reputation point for your signature, and one more for your cool avatar

Illusion's a bitch! Halfway through the video you posted... This seems to be a great one. Going beyond beingness? Wtf, I thought beingness was truth! Exactly the video I needed I guess, to challenge what I think I know

This is helpful thanks for bringing these contemplations in my present. My intuition is that this pointing is on point

What does non-self mean? Apart from sounding a bit like non-sense, it has to be that it at least means not being attached to anything. Because who is there to be attached? All part of the illusory story if my egoic separate existence. In oneness, there is no need to attach, because everything supposedly is already attached, and forever. No problem with attachments if they would last forever, because then there would not be the pain from losing it. This brings me to the thought... Maybe the very purpose of maya, the egoic realm is to break the attachment with the oneness that we are, even if it is only illusory (guess that's the only way to separate oneself from oneself, through illusions and delusions). The ultimate attachment, The attachment to our true nature, because to be honest we can never ever be detached from it, because we are it. However a dream seems too real sometimes, until you wake up and laugh it off. I wish to see you all as the oneness once I have returned home. The weekend is going to be the real test. I usually do a lot of huffing and puffing on weekend as to get enlightenment experiences (or close to those) and not waste my time being the inadequate sober me.(I seem and feel much closer to God on weed, but as one friend from the park said - "I don't believe in weed. I don't think it's real [The feelings and experiences of Heaven I often get]." - I have to agree. Whatever comes and goes is not it. Im not looking to gain anything anymore, I am looking to uncover by removal of shit. Thanks for reading

All these points arw valid and make sense, but only in the realm of mind aka from the human perspective. There seems to be a Good that transcends the good and bad of duality. When Barna is saying All is joke, I assume that he means, from the place of that Good, the good and bad duality and all other dualities are seen as jokes. With all is love, I guess he might be saying that from that place of Good without opposite, All is Love, because there is no opposite. But if someone cut their baby's throat or does anything else obviously negative in the realm of form in the name of nonduality or spirituality, that is labeled : Spiritual Bypassing. It's the mind trying to pretend it is awareness and trying to attain awarenesses qualities. But it cant, because mind lives in duality. Hence for the mind there should be right and wrong, and it's vital.

If bees stop beeing, so will human beings. Seems to me like the planet of the bees, not humans. =]
