I totally accept that reality is just mind stuff, it was hard. I agree that the belief in a world made of matter is absurd and doen't really add up. What I am strongly in opposition to is people on here telling each other that they dreamt up their loved ones and that they are all alone, or Leo proclaiming that he doesn't exist and is just a figment of ones imagination. That shit isn't going to help anyone new to spirituality. I don't know what it is that you are trying to do? Are you all trying to talk past all the egos and directly to god to get it to wake itself up?

If the truth is the solipsism like stuff you all go on about here, I will be spending the rest of my life in a mental hospital when I discover it.

It's not only that, this carry on of telling people that they are all that there is and they dreamt up every person they have ever met needs to stop because its unhealthy and immature.

I strongly disagree. Yes, there's only one consciousness, and each of our minds are appearances within that. Yes, infinite consciousness is totally alone, but you as a person are not. This solipsistic preaching needs to stop as it is downright dangerous and causes people lots of suffering which puts them off spirituality and, in extreme cases, drives them to suicide. I've discussed this point on here until I am blue in the face and then people will try to tell me that there are other perspectives, the very same people who keep spouting that you are all alone and you've dreamt up your whole family just to feel connected. They will also tell you to do things like selfless service and love others. If your solipsistic worldview was true, there would be totally no point helping another person, the only actions worth performing would be those necessary to ensure your own survival in your miserable lonely life.

My mindset just now is that there is nothing else in life worth pursuing other than enlightenment. It's just so unfortunate that this walking flesh prison makes that nearly impossible due to its cravings and other ideas. I'm open to a relationship if it arises but chasing it is just going to make me suffer more.

Why are enlightened people okay with things like murder? Is it because they know that nobody is actually being hurt as the murder is something the enlightened person dreams up?

I have certain needs which can not be met. This does not mean I enjoy sadness. I have to find a way to transcend these needs or suffer for life. I just look at my strengths and weaknesses and focus my efforts on what is likely to succeed. For me, attaining full enlightenment is a far better use of my time as it is more likely to succeed than seduction and all of that other stuff. I mean, come on, I look as seductive as a bloody fence post! No offense to fence posts. So the best course of action is just to consciously watch the feelings of lack, etc until the ego finally gives in?

During the waking state I find that developing a habit of mindfulness helps. I always bring my attention back to the breath or walk with full attention on all bodily sensations. Sometimes I will just unconsciously practice mindfulness as part of the dream narrative and then I become fully aware that what I'm seeing is nothing like waking state reality and I immediately go lucid. It happens to me very rarely though so maybe there are more effective practices.

I have yet to unlock other powers, but I'm hopeful.

The only control I have over my reality is the ability to make the numbers 666 and 66 appear.

@Leo Gura I've never had sex in my life and sometimes the feelings get totally unbearable. Put it this way, I'm more likely to win the rigged National Lottery than have sex, let's not bullshit ourselves around that point. Is the following a good action plan to finally break free of thee feelings of craving and lack? 1 Abstain completely from masturbation 2 When the feelings of craving and lack arise, sit and meditate for an hour and repeat until the ego breaks?

I completely cut out all meat and now eat quorn instead. I did the change immediately and so far there's no ill effects. Yes, it is heavily processed and that's my main concern, but I would rather have that than contribute to the huge amounts of suffering and environmental damage caused by the meat industry.

All of them are devils doing devilry.

I'd say it's better to work hard totally for yourself than be a wage slave in a massive company where you matter less to the CEO than dirt.

I've experienced the same regarding the loss of a loved one. It's called postponement of effect. My initial reactions to death are usually internal laughter or nothing. Then a day later I will be consumed with extreme grief for several days. I totally lose it when I look at something which belonged to them or I go to the freezer and see food which they made or see something which they were in the middle of but never finished. Just be prepared for these emotions to come up.

Who will there be to awaken?

I see something which has the potential to please a woman in infinite ways. Too bad the mind controlling it doesn't have a clue.

I've posted about this before but felt I should post again as every single day I see 666 66 and 69 with ever increasing frequency. It is actually starting to make me very worried. I also did a repair job for a couple and I had this overwhelming sense that I had met them before, they just looked so familiar, even though I've never met them in my life. I just really don't know what to make of reality any more.

You're not spamming at all, these examples are interesting. I don't know what the heck is going to happen and that's what worries me.

I notice the same things with all the numbers on the forum, too.

I am 26 and will try her advice, maybe set up a bumble profile. I have done several experiments which disprove the law of attraction.

It's tough to find them because they have nothing to prove and don't stand out so much. Chances are I walk past a few every day and not even know it.

I am certainly a specter of my former self, that's for sure.

I have solipsism stuck in my head, took mushrooms and they showed me solipsism.
