When you dont want to write your homework. The teacher won't accept that excuse! How about "I don't know" or "i know I don't know". I can be certain That I am. The rest is up for interpetation.

Your posts lack substance. Is this really acceptable behaviour on the forums nowadays? You're very offensive 😒 Here are the rules of the forum you should get more familiar with @ivankiss: -Show a level of respect & humility. Demonstrate kindness, friendliness, and compassion towards fellow members. -Show a willingness to learn and consider multiple points of view, rather than only pushing your own. -Show us that you are doing inner work, rather than merely engaging in metal-masturbation. -Restrain your projections and egoic reactions. If we see you projecting your biases, judgments, misunderstandings, grudges, ignorance, and other egoic issues onto forum members, you will be banned.

So pain is not consciousness alluvassudden. You always cherrypick what you're nondual about. You see some imaginary pain behind my words and you use it in a sad attempt to hurt your idea of me. My man drop the act of being enlightened it does you no good. Milk that is poisoned looks like milk, but you shouldnt drink it. Be careful what milk you consume 🧐. You cant paint everything with a broad brush like you're doing. Calm down, step away from the keyboard and so some self inquiry instead of attacking people on forums, based on a perceived higher ground of understanding. You drank poisoned milk. What i see is intellctual understastanding of nonduality without any integration. What I see is nonduality of words. You want to win arguments, not know the Truth.

Are those words supposed to be directed at me? You seriously have an ego problem. Yes, consciosness is right now. Don't use that fact to grow a spiritual ego by repeating it after your ignorant stance. Still consciousness, still now. At least read what I wrote and contemplate before you continue with your active ignorance tho. Intellectual truth wont get you further than feeding your ego.

After enlightenment chop wood carry water. Not after enlightenment chop consciousness carry consciousness.

Im not saying consciousness happens inside somebody. You speak of consciousness as if its an object lmao. You have an egoic reaction trying to defend your position 😂 time to break the internet. I'm speaking from the experience of being aware. I am aware, thats the starting point. Im not making any assumptions or thinking, it is my experience that I am aware. I don't like how you are turning consciousness into an object/color and attempting to color everything with that same color. You are coloring everything white, not realising consciousness is empty of all color. You don't know what consciousness is, thats what IvanKiss needs to understand and deal with. You have nothing but a very tricky spiritual nondual ego! Sorry to say.

Ivankiss and Dodo are both aware. AI is not. Ivankiss and Dodo are activities of Consciousness, we can discuss this, our first hand experience is we are conscious and aware. We arent just rusty thoughts, we are actually aware. Ai has no experience of this, it is just spitting out it's training data. Ai has no authority on this subject. It can sound profound, but it knows less about consciousness than Princess Arabia 👸 (i try to pick someone who I think is a very egoic user on the forums)

Based on a duality that there was a guy Dodo who posted something when there is just consciousness. Sup 😆

Whats the point, its an echo chamber. At best you get points of view from wise humans or already established philosophical views. Alexa is not alive to give you a real contemplation, ask it where it draws its answers from. I am very strict with my Ai and always ask where and how is it talking about consciousness if it has no direct experience of it. Its basically plagiarising someone else's work. I'd give it an F for not citing its sources.

Day 342 of mistaking consciousness and mind

I think many miss out, because he is so clear and direct, no fluff. Hope the original poster watches the video and experience what is being said because it's always practical, not just intellectual bs. I got this video like a pill for this user's situation, listened to exact section after reading his post, like it was synchronicity at work, so I hope he pays attention to it and doesn't do silly things like insane amounts of mushrooms or whatever he has in mind.

This video, from 23:00 to see what belief leads to Solipsism, thats your mistake @theoneandnone. Bonus, he uses the word Actualize in there Take care. Btw, shared dream is no longer a dream, it's reality and we have only One reality. Don't poop on it, you're not alone.

Take a listen 🎶 A shared dream is real reality.

Continously notice you are here and now as you read. I see so many topics on here about this and that, and I believe the forum used to be much more rigorous about pointing out that without knowing who or what you are, all other topics are like building a house without a solid base. Topics about satanism - whaaaa, about spirits, afterlife, this or that. Who is asking, who is answering? What is asked and by who? Lets examine for a second, and see whether all those other topics even make sense to the real you, or they only make sense to your persona in time. I am always now. The word I refers to that which knows all senses, all perceptions and conceptions, meaning, all thoughts, feelings, etc.. all visual, auditory, sensory perceptions. That I which knows all those is always Here and Now and its effortlessly here and now. What afterlife then, if I am always here now? Satanism is just a bad trip generator, a poor artist in creation, a weed in the garden. A bad movie. I am unstained by any movie, always here and now. What is a Satanist other than someone lost in his own mind? I am Prior to time and space. All I need to do is Be in the knowing of I in the nowness of it. The nowness of I is real. Thats awareness of awareness. Awareness of objectless Nowness. So what am I and What are you?

Investigating a sensation currently present and relaxing into what knows that sensation is not a conceptual exercise. Investigating a thought currently present and relaxing into what knows that thought is also not a conceptual exercise. What is important here is not the object of experience, which would be conceptual exercise, but always being more interested in the subject of that appearant object, be it conceptual object (thought) or a perception/sensation. There is one common isness/nowness that knows all these different objects which itself can't be seen as an object, which makes it so appearantly elusive. Cant be seen as an object, but it can be beinged - only now. Thats it, if I weren't it, I wouldn't be able to know it. I can only know it because I am it.

"Simply being here and now" is not enough yes, you have to also be interested about it and to know that you are here and now. Literally everyone is here and now, but who is knowingly here and now? Not many. I feel like some here have strong spiritual egos that are hard to get through. I like the beginners mindset always, beginning from what we have here and now, not from content of the mind or something learnt, because that would stain our investigation, it won't be as pure as it can be.

Leave some enlightenment for the rest of us, dude

I don't know about those, im simply examining the current experience. I don't know of that which knows everything, only that which knows my experience, narrowing down myself, i dont bother myself with thinking about concepts like everything, just my own experience is the only thing I have full access to and can investigate.

Ayy that arogant ego speaking . Seems like you got the truth on intellectual level. You are probably a young one with that flashy statement. Ofcourse the now is 0 years old, but it is not only you lmao, it's everyone like you're special, just like everybody else

How old are you, Ivane. This nonduality thing is not about winning arguments nor about typing flashy comments, its about having practical direct experience of nonduality. Maybe re-read original post and see if you can follow the pointings. The egoic reactional thoughts are also seen by the I now. They aren't I.

In my post I talk about direct experiential awareness of Being now, nothing woowoo, no concepts, but pointing to the subject which cant be experienced as an object. in your comment you talk about some concepts.

Discussing consciousness here in direct practical way. If you want just tell me why I'm wrong or contribute in some way to the thread rather than this childish jelly thing, that would he great

Well im not going to be following any of the Frank Yang spirituality where he has poetry about getting down on girls and presents the genitals as light 🤔. If you are young enjoy yourself, but at some point perhaps after an accident or just by getting older you understand you need to look for something more absolute for your peace than body and mind which are transient. The body and mind are sensations and thoughts/ feelings appearing now and not essential to what I am because they constantly change, but the nowness is essential to what I am. Nothing else changes, just my identity.

I agree you cant hold it as an idea, but who is that holding it as idea, if not another idea. Im talking about the actual nowness that cannot be put in words. Since it is me that is aware now, that means I am that aware nowness, so I can hold on to That as my identity. Yes, not with words, but as the experience itself of knowing being

But im saying The empty nowness is actually real and self evident now.. and my empty nowness is the same darn thing as yoour empty nowness. Its the common root. My nowness is not different to your nowness. I can actuallly hold on to the nowness as a sense of self, because its always present and its me
