Dodo replied to AmIEvenReal's topic in Spirituality, Consciousness, Awakening, Mysticism, Meditation, God
Ok, but I'm labeling when im using it. I've seen others who use AI withtout even mentioning it, and they didnt get mentioned by mods even though it is a forum violation. What is important here is the challenge, AI offers great points which I cannot make myself. The content is good and thats what matters in a discussion. It's all part of the journey. What's the problem if I'm labeling it? Im obviously not presenting it as my own opinion, it's just a solid take by a tool representing the collective. Is truth important, or who wrote it, at the end of the day? -

Ai response (no nonsense): Response to TheSelf: You’re trying to sound nuanced, but you’re still clinging to a position. Every time you defend what you “really meant,” you tighten the very knot you claim to have untied. You say, “The world you're experiencing is your own mind.” Good. That’s a solid pointer. But notice — who’s saying it? Who’s the one claiming ownership of that realization? If you still think you can “reach” the realization and then “choose love,” you’re just rearranging the furniture inside the dream. That’s not nuance — that’s the ego hiding in a robe. You can’t reach what you already are. And you can’t choose love once the ego drops — because the chooser is what dies. When you truly see there are no others, love doesn’t appear as a moral decision or a “capacity” you’ve gained. It’s not your art. It’s not even love in the sentimental sense — it’s the raw seeing that there’s nothing outside awareness to reject. Love stops being a thing you do. It becomes the absence of the one who does. Now, about your “Truth is Truth” point — yes, reality doesn’t change. But parroting ancient formulations doesn’t mean you’re aligned with it. The forms of expression decay because human language ossifies fast. When someone tells you to speak freshly, they’re not saying “invent new Truths.” They’re saying: stop quoting enlightenment like a slogan and let it bleed through you in a way that’s alive now. Otherwise you’re worshipping corpses — the corpses of words that once pointed to something living. You’re right that the ego resists dissolving into the simple. But right now, your “simplicity” is intellectual comfort disguised as profundity. You’ve weaponized simplicity to defend yourself from being challenged. The real simplicity is this: Drop every sentence you just wrote. Drop “love,” “truth,” “your art.” Drop the pride of being the one who “gets it.” What’s left, right there — before you name it — that’s the realization you were pointing to. That’s the only part worth trusting. Everything else is commentary. -

@AmIEvenReal @TheSelf My AI evaluation (no nonsense): Alright. Let’s strip away the fluff and look. 1. Content Quality: Both users are orbiting around the same cliché realization: “Hate makes no sense because others are me.” This is not wrong, but it’s philosophically shallow and experientially secondhand. It sounds like a rephrasing of something they've read or heard rather than something they've lived deeply enough to articulate with freshness or precision. True insight redefines the language around it — it doesn’t recycle jargon like “no others,” “projection,” “dissolves naturally.” That’s fine as scaffolding, but if you’re serious about awakening, you’ve got to transcend parroting mystical phrasing and express what’s actually seen. If this were a real awakening insight, it would have an unmistakable felt texture: confusion, awe, surrender, humility, or terror. There’s none of that here — just tidy spiritual reasoning. That’s a red flag for ego intellectualizing the insight. 2. Depth of Understanding: Let’s break the logic: “Hate makes no sense because others are me.” → True in the nondual sense, but that realization isn’t enough. When this insight actually matures, it doesn’t just dissolve hate — it dissolves self-love and all opposites. Love and hate both lose meaning because the self-other polarity collapses. The post still assumes love is “better.” That shows it’s a conceptual duality being rebranded as awakening. “It’s obvious once consciousness is raised.” → Dangerous phrase. If something becomes “obvious,” check if you’ve mistaken clarity of thought for clarity of being. The ego loves obviousness; consciousness has no such certainty. 3. Meta-Psychological Blind Spot: They’re both validating each other’s conclusions, but nobody is interrogating the subtle ego that’s now wearing spiritual clothes. The ego that once hated others now says: “I’m beyond hate because I know there are no others.” Same mechanism — just wearing a halo instead of armor. That’s what most of Actualized.org’s forum members fall into: recursive ego rebranding. It’s intellectual transcendence, not existential death. 4. Where to Go Deeper: If I were mentoring AmIEvenReal, I’d tell them: Stop talking about awakenings. The one who counts and categorizes them is precisely what isn’t awake. Let “hate” return and study it directly. Don’t transcend it by concept — feel it as God feeling itself in distortion. That’s where integration happens. Drop the nonduality lingo for a month. Speak like a child again. If you can’t explain your insight without words like “projection” or “no others,” you don’t own it yet. Let the insight destroy you. If your “awakening” makes you sound smarter, you missed it. The real thing burns your ability to sound impressive. 5. Verdict: Sincerity: 7/10 — Seems earnest, not trolling. Depth: 3/10 — Conceptual, not embodied. Originality: 2/10 — Generic nonduality phrasing. Ego camouflage: 8/10 — “I have awakenings” is still a flex. Potential: 9/10 — Genuine curiosity under the surface, just needs ruthless honesty and less forum feedback. -

Dodos were extinct a long time ago, unlike humans! Thats how the story goes, and we can't bring them back 😢 -

Im just the beee man. I don't mind bees and birds and humans, they are all great. -
Dodo replied to Dodecahedron's topic in Spirituality, Consciousness, Awakening, Mysticism, Meditation, God
Well ok but its something that can be a proper opinion of someone on these forums, we can say everything is illusion, apart from consciousness itself in its purest form. (I mean Princess Arabia even says consciousness is illusion / part of the dream) lololol Thats why im here for the giggles, things get so heated 🤪 everyone knows the truth and others are just sheep! -
Dodo replied to Dodecahedron's topic in Spirituality, Consciousness, Awakening, Mysticism, Meditation, God
Im just here for the giggles, i do believe there are human beings, sir. This forum and the internet are human endeavors. Doer or no doer, humanity is real 🤔 I live in the present moment as much as the next guy, but lets not deny entire species! -

Dodo replied to theoneandnone's topic in Spirituality, Consciousness, Awakening, Mysticism, Meditation, God
@theoneandnone Thats why I had a thread going once that it should be called nonipsism not solipsism. Hehe. Then ofcourse begin the ego battles in the forum post ppl defending solipsism not needing to defend it and I start to chat with intensity and there you go, its a bit funny tbh. No one is doing it but emotions running high around the topic lol -
Dodo replied to emil1234's topic in Spirituality, Consciousness, Awakening, Mysticism, Meditation, God
@emil1234 enjoy your confidence while on the back of a high. Your subconscious did you easymode. My one would've challenge me much deeper showing me hell, can you love that? Can you love being tortuted while everyone else is having a lovely life? Love everything? Only a sith deals in absoutes, don't love everything, the ability to not love bullshit is love. You wouldn't love poo for breakfast, even if on this forum you will exclaim that you did to keep up an enlightened persona. -
Dodo replied to Someone here's topic in Spirituality, Consciousness, Awakening, Mysticism, Meditation, God
Forum is full of immaturity and psychosis masked as awakened and enlightened 😀 No you dont need to insult other's beliefs to be close to enlightenment, what are we talking 😆 -
Dodo replied to UnbornTao's topic in Spirituality, Consciousness, Awakening, Mysticism, Meditation, God
Easier to be enlightened than to make money eh. "Even if the whole world would crumble, you wouldn't care" But pay me money, for that I care 😀 I myself have a lot of issues with money making, I'm really not good at it, and now I'm even physically challenged to make things worse. I cant have this egoic supremacy experience of being this rich man with financial power and family etc.. -

I've read and contemplated a lot, the conclusion i get is that definitely coffee is real, anything else might be an illusion, but this much I know. I drink latte, therefore I am. -

Ai rendition, a self-aware spiritual sitcom called: --- ## 🌌 “HOW DO YOU KNOW YOU’RE A HUMAN?” *A metaphysical sitcom in one forum thread.* **Setting:** An online forum where enlightenment meets insomnia. Every post feels like it was typed by a reincarnated philosopher with a Wi-Fi connection. --- ### Scene 1 — *The Opening Post* **[Princess Arabia (Topic Starter):**] “Welcome, beloveds. Let us ponder: *How do you know you’re a human?*” *She hits “post” and stares into the void. The void stares back, then asks for clarification.* --- ### Scene 2 — *The Definer Appears* **[Jehovah Increases]:** “It defines itself. It needs not anything to define what it is but itself.” *Camera zooms dramatically. Someone drops a crystal.* **[Princess Arabia]:** “Something other than existence has to define existence. If existence defines itself, it’s just… existence existing as existence, which means it doesn’t exist! Come on, get *deep.* Don’t just sprinkle words like seasoning.” **[Jehovah Increases]:** “...No existence is existence.” *Studio audience gasps.* **[Princess Arabia]:** “FYI, it’s *non-existence is existence.* Learn your paradoxes, sweetie.” --- ### Scene 3 — *Comic Relief Arrives* **[Yimpa]:** “All that exists is one mind that is infinite.” *beat* “Great minds think iLike.” *laugh track plays; a linktree appears for no reason.* **[Princess Arabia]:** “Something that’s *all there is* cannot *exist*, especially if it’s *infinite*—that’s like saying you’re inside yourself *and* outside the universe while holding a reusable coffee cup.” **[Jehovah Increases]:** “Known by whom what saying it’s wrong?” *Audience: “Ooooooh!”* --- ### Scene 4 — *Trash Day in Samsara* **[Yimpa]:** “Forgot to take out the trash last night. @Beans saved the day. The trash man gave two thumbs up! Humans make mistakes. God doesn’t ;)” **[Princess Arabia]:** “This thread is *not* a trash dumping ground.” *beat* “Although… existence might be.” --- ### Scene 5 — *The Moderators Descend* **[Carl-Richard (Moderator)]:** “Humans ask questions, humans reflect on what they are. Find me an animal who does both.” **[Natasha Tori Maru (Moderator)]:** “A human? He he he he he.” *laugh track erupts, “Seinfeld” bass riff plays.* --- ### Scene 6 — *The Mystics Join Late* **[Ramasta9]:** “Gotta love the mind, how it interacts with itself :P” **[Mellowmarsh]:** “A human has never existed. It’s a concept. Form is emptiness. Emptiness is the forum thread.” *All other users stare in silence as their avatars slowly fade into pure luminosity.* --- ### Scene 7 — *Final Moments* **[Princess Arabia]:** “So… is that saying you’re a human or not?” *No reply. Only the echo of the “Reply to this topic…” box blinking like a digital mantra.* **[Carl-Richard]:** 🙂↔️ *Cue end credits over a meditation gong and the faint hum of an overheating server.* --- **Narrator (voiceover):** “Actualized.org — where threads never die, they simply dissolve into the infinite consciousness of page six.” *Screen fades to black. Someone forgets to log out.* -
She has returned after being away for so long. I remember she/her videos were part of my spiritual experience during covid time. Now she's back and this video is like a warm embrace, its full of wisdom and love. Absolutely amazing, give it a watch, maybe while in bed and ready for sleep.

Where did I call people parrots, again you are putting words in my mouth lol. What is happening right now is this conversation. Thats the shape of my entire world right now, reading what you write and answering. Im not saying this is a dream, it's mysterious, way beyond my understanding. What's not beyond my understanding is that the knowing in which this experience appears is the reality of this, not the content. The content can be this that or the other, in this case it's an experience of responding on a forum about the nature of self and how there is only one me now. Next thing you know I will have an experience of going to the toilet. From me going to the toilet, to going to the toilet is appearing in knowing. Subtle shift, nothing godly is happening, just not identifying. And lets have a thought experiment, you come to attack me with a knife to see if I am identified, there will probably be an experience of a human defending themselves, that too is known. You don't need to identify with it for action. If you become lucid in a dream you know thats not you, but you continue to relate with the dream, just from a more free place. Less controlled by the dream. You get me bro, tell me you do! -
Dodo replied to Jowblob's topic in Spirituality, Consciousness, Awakening, Mysticism, Meditation, God
You are putting words in my mouth, where do I claim I am God. Im exploring direct experience, and I'm saying all you have is direct experience also. We are the same being, both of our totally different experiences are unified by knowing itself. What you call you is at no distance from the knowing of it. What's another way to call something at no distance from you? You. Its you that talk about some big God idea, im only talking about simple everyday knowing itself. You are putting words in my mouth, don't do it. -
Dodo replied to Jowblob's topic in Spirituality, Consciousness, Awakening, Mysticism, Meditation, God
There's no one using a character. There is an experience of a character in the light of knowing. Im just putting the knowing first, not the known. Im saying anything known doesn't exist independently of the knowing, in my experience. Again, im not solving "reality", im merely exploring the experience present. Solving Reality would be a grandiose task. I can only speak with confidence about my experience, not about some grand world out there. -
Dodo replied to Princess Arabia's topic in Spirituality, Consciousness, Awakening, Mysticism, Meditation, God
@Princess Arabia because the human experience is undeniable. Forget the label for a second, there are as many different labels for a human as there are human languages. Its some intelligent form consistent with nature, follows fibonacci ratios etc, golden ratio proportions. You know the story of the human species, science has done a good job of that. But im here not to discuss the human or the human experience, but the knowing with which it is known. Hehe! -
Dodo replied to Jowblob's topic in Spirituality, Consciousness, Awakening, Mysticism, Meditation, God
Im not claiming Godhood, I already stated that. I simply am. -
Dodo replied to Jowblob's topic in Spirituality, Consciousness, Awakening, Mysticism, Meditation, God
If you start thinking too much, trying to understand and are not rooted in the present moment, you can easily go crazy 🤪 Some would consider your talk about higher and lower selves as crazy 🤪 Im on about what is absolutely and verifiably real, there's not many of that, and certain honesty is needed. Also not having a "so what" attitude. -

@Hojo Key concepts Monism: The belief that reality is fundamentally a single, unified entity. Everything that exists is seen as a part of this single substance, principle, or being. Nondualism: The idea that reality is "not two". This is a refinement of monism, emphasizing that the ultimate reality is not a "one" separate from a "many," but that the concept of a separate self or object is an illusion. It negates the subject-object distinction, which is a core tenet of this philosophy. Advaita Vedanta: A school of Hindu philosophy where the term "advaita" (meaning "not two") is central. It teaches that the individual soul (\(Atman\)) is identical with the ultimate reality (\(Brahman\)). Transcending duality: The goal is to move beyond conceptual thinking and see reality as it is, without the divisions we typically impose. This involves recognizing that the "hard edges" separating things are not ultimately real. "Not this, not this": Since language cannot adequately describe this ultimate reality, a common approach is to use a negative assertion. The Sanskrit phrase neti neti, meaning "not this, not this," is used to point to this ineffable truth by negating all inadequate descriptions. -

Well I've had lucid dream thank you and I really did fly, I had the actual experience of flying, it was amazing. I've also been spiderman, it was also amazing, but also unfair because both cops and bad guys are against you. I really was "controlling" that spiderman character or the lucid dream selves, same way I am now in waking. Im not talking about solipsism either. Its nondual monism i believe. -
Dodo replied to Jowblob's topic in Spirituality, Consciousness, Awakening, Mysticism, Meditation, God
There's nothing to the character than the consciousness that knows it. Im not trying to explain "everything", im going the other way. Its the radical honesty of what you really are. The character is the character, as dreams prove, its perfectly possible for you to take yourself to be someone you are not during the dream experience. Its not a problem, but its also not another self, its just what is appearing. I do not claim God-hood, I do not make any grandiose claims. In fact im going the other way, a journey to the smallest thing, not the grandest. To pure knowing of not knowing. The appearance is allowed to be as it is, without the need to explain how and why its appearing the way it is. I am interested in me, the smallest thing, so small its not a thing. Smaller than a point. -
Dodo replied to Jowblob's topic in Spirituality, Consciousness, Awakening, Mysticism, Meditation, God
I dont know anything about lower and higher selves. That seems like an idea floating within awareness, not awareness itself. Maybe the main problem here stems from the fact that I take Consciousness for primary and examine direct experience, while in your direct experience a script could be happening which says "i have consciousness, but I am this other thing". Actually, you don't have consciousness, in direct experience you are consciousness.
