Now I am not saying that talking about enlightenment is bad, or it doesn't help to listen to masters and read books and so on, they are helpful, without words one could not convey the fact we are asleep. But if you are identified with any thought, A part of you is still unconscious. Stop seeking enlightenment, instead simply let go of your views this is something Buddha said. The more you hold on to, the more thoughts you will have. Enlightenment is pure silents, no thought. Instead of trying to figure out how to get enlightened by thinking about it, switch your emphasis and importants onto the space between thoughts instead, the more you Focuse awareness on the space between thoughts the bigger that space grows, intill ones mind is completely silent. You have heard that the truth can't be conveyed by words right? Why is that? Its because enlightenment is complete emptiness, silents, stillness.

@Aware My friend the truth, is your very being, what you are, is that not the most effortless thing in the world? What is a cup? The best way to answer that question is by me staying silent.

@Egoisego My friend I am not sure, what you mean when you talk about fame, ect. What i wrote, This my be a concept on here, but I can assure you, what I say comes from observation, direct experience only.

@Gabriel Antonio "To Infinity & beyond"

This comes from direct experience, it happens all the time, might be the same for you, if you look into it for yourself. Thought will come, could be imagination, meaning its being made up or it could be a memory, a projection into the future, or whatever it my be. A thought comes about another person, when thought creates other, in doing so creates self, in order to have other first must have self. Pretty simple, this is so vital you start to become conscious of this, happens all the time. This is helping create psychological duality. Me & other Other & me We as social creatures are always thinking about others. This happens by itself, its only a problem if you make it a problem, just be aware of it. In fact this is what most relationships are is between two images of each other. Me & my mum for example I have image of her, she has image of me, my image is what I think about her, based on past, my interpretation, beliefs about her, ect And visa versa. See that? It can be very subtle might need a enlightenment experience or two to start to really see how often and how subtle this can be. This was a very simple example, but could help increase your awareness. Hope it helps Peace

@Dodoster well said, there are many very subtle layers, of ego. Thought story, on top of more thought story's. It can be extremely difficult, because the ego is design to persist not figure its self out. Place your attention on reality instead. Ego loves attention. If you look at history, not many have awoken, its needs to be your life, and still theres no guarantee That it will happen. But sure as shit sets you apart from the rest.

@Dodoster ok, its the ego thats sweeps it under the rug isn't it, ego don't wana die. Are you sweeping it under the rug?

@Dodoster what is the oh my god moment?

"We are emptiness Beyond the concept of emptiness" - Callum Aylott 2017. the silent space, is what answers all questions, to find it is the problem because there are layers of ego occupying awareness, and awareness naturally places its attention on movement, I have observed this in my own experience, for example looking at the sky, that beautiful clearness on a winter day, a almost baby blue colour " wonderful" and various kinds of birds will glide past, the awareness naturally and spontaneously follows the movement of these creatures passing by. Observe this yourself one day. And this is the same with thoughts, thoughts arise spontaneously, they come and go, just like the birds in the sky, and awareness naturally, gives attention to them, and if you are thinking all the time, there is no attention given to the space in which these thoughts occupy. Alan watts said if you spend your whole time thinking, you end up only thinking about thoughts, and its true, we live in our own world of the way we think things are,and don't take that lightly, thoughts have a very powerful effect on the way we perceive everything. Most of humanity has never thought to question thought, to more clearly see thought, one has to observe thought, outside of thought. Is there a thinker of thoughts? It sure feels like it doesn't it, the voice in your head sounds very similar to the voice that comes from your mouth. Only one can answer this question themselves. Because its needs to be a answer from only direct contact of what is, rather than a answer, which is a sentence and that won't satisfy, will it? Meditation, is for enjoyment purposes, if you meditate to achieve some sort of state, you are only strengthening the ego, the ego is trying to get away from ego, the very trying is the problem, is the ego.

Infinity, never THINK you can know what Infinity is. This is what I am speaking to in you, something has got to take over, because the self can never attain it. This is the hearts doing, infinity can only be, in thoughtlessness. Thoughtless isn't the absents of thought but the complete consciousness of the entire mind, The psychological self that is constructed by the force in your awareness. You can't become thoughtless, you can only open your heart to it by being receptive. The self that most are identified with, wants to survive its not going to let go easily, the deceptive mind, most are asleep to, is going to throw everthing its got in your path. But if something grabs on, and a intelligence starts to manifest, that knows what it is doing, this is the intelligence of reality. the absolute, is unthinkable, thought is limited, belongs to time, the absolute is unlimited, because its nothing. Its outside of everything we experience in this world, all the things that seem important to you, are part of this magnificent dream. Completely neutral, there's no particular. Its 0!!! that's the only thing that is not bound by anything. Because you can only put a limit on something. The self will be terrified, because you have to die, and maybe go through difficult moments, because the ego, is programmed To survive, doesn't want to die, but if you can go through the fear, having thoughts that you will leave the body. Ect. Then you will be reborn, and you will see that what you are is outside of death. The light of your heart will caress your very being. True non duality, Jesus said - "I have overcome the world" This is liberation, Everything is okay, death has no meaning for you. the self has been dissolved completely by the love of infinity. No division. No oppositions, Yin % yan masculine & feminine you need to use masculine energy (aggression) first and be a real seeker and really want it, and meditate and enquire. Then something will take over, and that's when the feminine Energy is needed, to be passive, receptive. Fall into the arms of god. This is not what god is, this is a projection of the ego, God doesn't judge reality, God is one with all. God is pure, this was the interpretation of god through the ego lenses, This was not the truth all who have woken tryed to convey.

Adyashanti said once, " never think there is a limit of the devine ground, it is infinite" There isn't anyone in the head, looking out of the eyes, thats obvious, if that isn't the case for you at the moment, thats because of the "monkey mind" getting in the way. What I want to talk about in this post though is a "enlightenment experience" where your awareness expands and merges with everything else. It seems the more you have, the deeper you go! Pretty cool. I don't know how deep Leo went into it, when he took 5 meo, by the sounds of it pretty fucking deep! I want to try to describe the deepest one ive had thus far. First of all its very physical! You feel the body, but you also "feel" your environment! Its not separate from the body, It is unified by the invisible field of well..... You! There's nothing to hold on to, nothing to cling to. Its a deep, solid Stillness feeling, hard to explain needs to be experienced to know what I mean. It doesn't have a end you can literally feel That it is the case. It feels like death. Nothing to do but surrender. Thoughts may freak out, they have done numerous times with me. I started having thoughts about space and galaxies and stuff like that. knowing that's not separate from what I am. And to a self that's terrifying because of the vastness of it, in comparison to the human body. We are all unified by this field, of "nothingness" Everything in this field is nothingness, including your body that you are in use of at the moment. This is the truth. But don't let what I am saying freak you out, this is good news because death means the end of the body but not the end of this magnificent dream. Not the end of this beauty. Somehow what we are has the intelligence to manifest itself in many different ways, incredible! It maybe not a "thing" but that doesn't mean it is absent of its own magic. The more aware you are, the more you see and are blown away that you exist! Because after a while of life, things start to seem more mundane, but its not, you exist!!! How can that be anything other than your own magic. Peace & love my friends. Let me know what you think in the comments section.

Okay, I hope everyone out there is doing okay, I hope your all well healthy, happy and are enjoying your life Off course if your having a tough time of it then I hope you can really listen to my words and go beyond them, meaning once I have said something see it for yourself and then burn the words I said at the stake (metaphorically Speaking) Because this is coming from direct experience, and nothing else. "Do not dwell in the past, do not dream of the future, concentrate the mind on the the present moment." -Buddha Being Present This is your ticket to golden factory ladies and gentleman, if you can be in the present moment from now on then that is going to be a key factor isn't it. Because that's what enlightenment consist of, being in the present moment, what else is there? Time, Time is thought. Very simple. If you didn't have thought there would be no time, see that please. Timeless Look in front of you with out time let it go. If thought arises recognize it as time and its bound to arise, thoughts only quiet down when there not given much significants and importance. There just another aspect of this phenomenal Field you are experiencing. All of the knowledge You have let that shit go there just more sensations in this phenomenal Field. Look at reality directly, see it directly. Without identity, if you have the sense of you as a self, that's just more sensations in the phenomenal Field. Look at reality exactly how it is. You are the silent watcher. everything is happening by its self, nothing needs to be kept up. No effort to be in the present moment. you are always in the present moment but thoughts, keep ones experience in time. There's nothing else but what is. This place, stay here from now on, this is what we call psychological death cut-out all the b******* and let go of the Self if you have belief which no doubt you do. that's what creates a sense of a psychological self. Your going to have to losen your grip with thoughts, all of them. By ignoring them and being present. That's the only way you will find silents in your life. Silents is another word for what you are. That's what enlightenment is, complete silents, emptiness. No thought will get you there, you can't figure out how to get enlightenment, because there isn't anyone to get enlightened, you see. Its only by letting go off the attachment to the psychological Self, by ignoring it from now on. The whole mind- (Concept) Such As, memory, fantasy, opinion, judgement belief, basically any sentence you say to yourself, you need to give it all up. a lot of people on here are very dogmatic and you can tell that they are still living in there heads because they are attached to the thoughts that appear inside of their awareness. There attached to themself. not realising how much mastery thoughts have over them. I am getting tired now. so I will give it a rest for one day. There is still so much to say, but I will leave it for today. There still so much such as the state of not knowing, enquiry, Infinity, the intelligence of your true being And so on. Let me know what you think in the comment section if it was helpful at all.

@Just Do Nothing @Just Do Nothing @Just Do Nothing yer I think its probley best to stay away from weed for the time being, it has such a positive effect on me because I have been increasing consciousness A lot. I read your post and see that weed probley isnt the best option for You ATM mate. I see you have been having a bit of a pickle, so its brilliant for you to start to inquire into this amazing thing we call reality and experientially See you are not separate from it. You can go so deep into this life and you will see beauty and profoundness beyond all words. That's were real fulfillment Lies.

@Just Do Nothing i have never tryed that before did it taste nice? And yer about the paranoia that's another story isn't it, I never get paranoid, and if I do the thoughts that are causing the paranoia doesn't have the capacity to have much of an effect that's to overwhelming.

@cetus56 thats really interesting thanks for sharing that pal.

@Just Do Nothing yer it affects everyone differently doesn't it I guess

@cetus56 yer definitely, I will try and get my hands on 5 meo one day to see for myself, its just quite difficult to get hold of it.

@electroBeam yer its about being open minded isnt it really. Its not like one size fits all. Someone could get enlightened and become more empathic or someone could get enlightened and not be empathic and be completely detached. It's best not to hold on to any particular view or belief because that can be a hindrance. its about being open & not really knowing, that way one doesn't cling to dogma.

@cetus56 tell me more about your enlightenment experience its sounds like it was really profound?

@electroBeam be careful buddy you could just be projecting enlightenment on to the test. We don't see the world as it is but rather how we are. Its probley cause your studying enlightenment so you start to see it in things completely unrelated To it. Don't get to caught up in how enlightened people are, because the ego might see that and just try to emulate it which is not enlightenment. Do you know what I mean?

@cetus56 @cetus56 sounds like it was awesome, I knew I wouldn't be the only one that weed has assisted. Because I kid you not every time I smoke weed I have an enlightenment experience. The awareness naturally expands and is one with reality and I know it's not just the drug because after it wears off it stays. it's like each time I get something from it. I take home more consciousness that stays with me. now the reason for that is because I'm contemplating all the time and meditating and being mindful in my daily life. and I find if I smoke cannabis on occasion then it's like the enquiry ceases for that time being, I become completely relaxed and then that's when an enlightenment experience Happens, because in that moment there's nothing to do but be. theres no ego trying to attain. it's awesome!!!

@aidenhall @Dodoster so funny made me laugh so good You 2 funny bastards

@cetus56 So cool isn't it I wonder what kind of depths you kind reach after 40 years of contemplation Now that is fucking cray cray Only one way to find out guys.

Beautiful quote by mooji "Mind always has something to say, but truely you have nothing to say" Thought I would share this because of its beauty & truth.

@Dodoster it is experiencing its self, its what everything is, so it experiences all experience. Whether that be itself in its purest form or going to the supermarket to get some waffles When you read you this, it reads it and no1 else does, its what we all are, consciousness itself.
