Try to place the conception of no judgement first. There would be no murder, etc. The population is currently, of course, not there. So we have a need for laws, etc. In the future, we will not have a need for such laws, judgments, etc. We evolved from oneness, to separatism of the self, and are evolving back into oneness, with the awareness of self.

@Indian Dreamer I read your blog post, it didn't seem to conclude with you being bothered. It seems like it resolved with a suggestion for the reader to' feel good'. Much appreciated! In what way are you bothered by this?

@brovakhiin So you are saying life is designed, rather than compounding emergent random properties of increasing complexity?

@Alex K That would take all the fun out of it. Like if you had all the sex you will ever have all at one time. It'd be awesome, but then what? Time is good for us. The insights may be forgotten but the perspective and perception can not be forgotten. I love your posts by the way.

Love you guys. Thank you so much!

@brovakhiin Perhaps that is the means, but the meaning is up to you?

Are you sure you don't experience one causing the other? If you are it and see it it's one and it's an illusory perception of two. A perception worth experiencing, still though, an illusion. The mind in the middle is also the one, and also part of the illusion. Imagine, knowing all the amazing things we know about water, that everything is made from water. Not literally, just as an analogy for the one and the two ness. A simultaneous implosion and explosion. Both expanding the other.

Practice thinking in images instead of words, then eventually try thinking in emotions, then eventually non thinking.

No judgement, no sin, no need to pray for others. Acceptance.

"The Quan"

I think love is the everything. Ego is the other component. When we let go of the ego, we empty the cup, and it fills with love. The ego is tricky though and it will always go to deeper layers to justify it's existence. This is perfect though, because letting it go still allows for deeper love. And so on.

That pretty much sums it for me also. I love you what you said. I'm not making any claims about how realized or not I am because it's all relative. I will say though that where I'm at now is all about staying in the connection and synchronicity. I'm there around 80 - 90 % of the time. I go weeks without noticing any resistant thought. I do love everything. It's on ongoing joke from my friends about how everything always works out for me. It has taken a very long time of aligning mind & body to get here. A weird thing is that the less ego and more connection, the more things just work out great, but the greater the things that works out, the greater the temptation to go back to ego. I'm getting good at staying connected and want to understand the more finite details. I'm always looking for beliefs I can become aware of and let go, trying to increase awareness of when the ego is about to come back. What is the next phase? Any experience there?

I think the root of the word sin meant more to speak ill of one's self, and then was morphed or hijacked by religion. Although, Moses was onto something great if we connect these dots: 1 Moses said God's name is "I am" 2 Moses wrote the commandments that defined the 'sins'. Perhaps the original intention was not to do those things because of the emotional hell we would inflect on ourselves? A good general rule would be not to have any negative impact on others, negative as in unwanted. Which is easy if you never speak or think ill of yourself. Only you can decide your morality. Some people insist they bear no responsibility for their past actions because it was destiny. I myself feel that I make choices and bear the responsibility for them. In the end, we only have to live with ourselves in this life.

@PetarKa The good news is you made it to earth somehow. The harder news is, if you're going to progress academically & get proper time in on your PD, and hold a job - you'll have to motivate and focus yourself. We all face this. It helps to see that no one is forcing you to do anything. I chose to do all of that when I was your age. I'm glad I did. It's not easy though, not at all. The more you can get yourself to a place of enjoying all of it, the easier it will be. It takes time.

That's a great question. Maybe if being serious feels good, it's good. If you're being serious and it feels bad, you're probably being slightly to hard on your self. Focus is helpful, but serious might mean you need a break or vacation because you've been focusing intensely and progressing for a long time, which is great.

@Loreena I like it. Funny thought, how when we pay, we get change. Go Beibs! Also, if I said that was ludacris, it'd be a little offensive, but very accurate.

@OhHiMark Awesome. I don't get any of this stuff. Compassion feels good to me also. Have a great day man.

Sorry for the CAPS, it just helps the response stick out. The thing you are missing, is seeing beyond the illusion that we are all in one reality. The uniqueness of an individual is unimaginable. But, what you're doing here, trumpeting something, or anything, is really the only way to discover the illusion, so keep it up! Maybe people will try your advice and find that they feel better eating meat.

@Everlast IME, fat in food (sugar, carbs, bread, noodles, etc) becomes of course fat in the body. Additional weight on the body is directly the same as additional weight in the mind, resulting in an almost total loss of the physiological sensation of clarity, which all else is chosen from. I have clarity because I don't eat that stuff. I do however, love that other people do. I appreciate the variety, and I can't even imagine how competitive the world would be were it not for fat. We are where we are.

@Zingo Made any progress on this particular inquiry?

Try to figure out how you attracted them in the first place. See they aren't "negative", that's a judgement you created. They just are where they are. Offer compassion if you are in a solid place. Otherwise, move on, they're fine.

@100rockets I feel that I was once where you are. I lost all sense of purpose, I lost all sense of even my own senses. Total LOST. I had absolutely zero to look forward to and nothing to appreciate. Death was attractive relative to where I was. The thing you have to have a little faith, reason, understanding in - you have no idea what the rebound or bounce is. I did not know how this worked when I was in that place, so admittedly, it's easy for me to say now, in hindsight - but OMG if only I would've known about this then!!!!!! What we experience constructs us. IMO there is a reliable universal law that says however bad it is now, it will be equally good as a result of it. Hang in there or you'll miss the miracle!!!! Try getting away for a few days. You will likely get some perspective. Also, seeing the "lie" is a gift. You are liberated. If it's all a lie, now you can do anything.

@Christian I agree with that. Good stuff thanks. Philosophically maybe, is happiness itself a plateau? Like, how would one know, if they're really happy all the time, if there is more beyond the plateau? Maybe only death / total oneness & liberation I think.

The thing that keeps one thinking they are anything other than everything, is the ego.
