All intention is self serving. If it serves the false self (ego) then your identity is false also. If your intentions serve The Whole (your true identity) than you are in alignment with truth. You are expression of your true self.

@NoSelfSelf All intention is self serving. Yes. If your identity/idea of self is only you and you alone. You will be called selfish. If your sense of self expands and becomes everything. All your intentions will be to serve The Whole. And that is love.

It is the intention that moves. Intention/will can come from fear (ego) and it can come from the source (love) If you identify yourself with ego, you will express everything that has to do with survival (anger, judgement, control, manipulation, fear etc etc.) If you identify with Truth, only the impulse of love will manifest through your body. And the way of truth is only harmony and peace. Therefor your actions show what you identify with. Truth or illusion.

There's not a single intention in you that did not come out of you. YOU must be there first, for intention to exist. That YOU is your fundamental core identity.

It's important to understand intention to understand identity. Because who produces intention? You do. What is this "you"? It's your identity.

What is intention is not a simple question tho.

I will try, I'm trying to write another reply now

@UnbornTao If you have intention, you have identity. Intention is inseparable from the one who intends. The one who intends is your identity.

Yea

Lol

You would have. If you wrote that book.

My tolerance for pain is such that even if I have to do chores I awaken instead.

You'd already have some followers here

"Only for most serious spiritual seekers"

I'm serious yea

Now that you mention it, it sounds pretty dope

Hmm. Is it just me, but I imagine ants to have a similar experience of the world minus the complexity of thought and emotion that humans have.

I would imagine alien conciousness would be like going from 3D to 4D or smth.

What if nothing is alian in existence? 😮

It's funny because all these years he was saying there's nothing beyond this, there's nothing beyond this. And now this. What a slap in a face to all the nondualist here, haha. But he also slapped himself in the face this is funny ngl...

Truth is never stupid or disfunctional. Only ego can be stupid and disfunctional. To call someone who is expressing qualities of ego, beyond ego (enlightened) . Is a contradiction in terms.

The only way to have a desire to protect yourself is if you have a sense of self first. Animals also have fear. Fear, survival instinct, ego identity are one and the same. One who has no sense of self, does not interpret anything as a threat. Therefor feels no need to resist anything. Their conciousness and sense of self merges with the whole universe. And all sense of duality is gone. Your understanding of what identity is seems to lacking depth in my view.

What about sky diving

It would be more accurate to reality if the tail also had eyes and personality and soul, just like the head, but unique.
