I think on the contrary, it will strengthen your acting skills because you will know you are not your body, so you can detach from "your" identity and become another person. besides that, you wont really know until you try, if spirituality is really important to you, you will continue doing it, if acting will keep being important to you, just continue doing it, if not, do something else that you will find to be the best thing, I dont see a problem (because they are not real).

@Privet lol but then it just goes in a loop, it's all just happening.

@Privet

@ajasatya i guess what he meant to say is what are frequencies themselves. why reinvent the wheel? it will take lifetimes to understand stuff that u can just get from other sources.

@Amit sure, that's what self inquiry and meditation is for. what i meant to say is that what differs thoughts usually from other senses and why it seems confusing.

@Amit thoughts are presence-energy, exactly like other senses, in other words, stuff that are inside consciousness. only difference is that awareness identifies with it.

people here talk about noticable effect and stuff like that from the awakening process. is it just 20 min meditation a day and 1 hr self inquiry a day does it? or theres more stuff

if theres no ego to make great, i guess whats left is only joy and happiness as purpose, so i guess its something that has to do with more joy filled presence? and i guess advancing and being more and more self actualized as a side quest?

@Martin123 welp

@Martin123 what the vid's about, it's a bit long , just in a sentence or two

can you expand a little please ?

sure, it's easy to just say that that, im working on it. but if I already realized that why would I ask that question in the first place? and if I already realized that how would your post help in the first place... see?

sure its made up, but how do I deal with the senses I feel when the "problem" takes effect in the present.

@Heart of Space it's QM, so no rational explanations are out there yet, if you'd watch the vid I think it would be more convincing.

in a nutshell physicists were able to see difference in the interference pattern from the double slit experiment when people thought about the photons collapsing the wave function. extremely convincing, with reproductions to come. I think this is fascinating if this will end up true. Imagine the implications of such results if it will become mainstream physics!!! spiritual education in schools is an example which would be amazing to witness. I think this will be THE tipping point for science, which will make a ton of new groundbreaking discoveries.

question for the purpose of understanding better the zen devil concept

how spiritually mature should i be to read this book? is it the top of its league? any other book suggestions?

@Max_V i meant spiritually mature

@Shin what being in nature has to do with it?

so some spiritual masters' life purpose is making other people lead better lives. why do they care about other people's lives, since a human is no different from a cat or an ant or a rock? is it because it makes their human body feel good sensations?

this thread was made just to clear things up for me, just to tell if i got the philosophy right, tell me please if something seems off. So basically who "I" truly am is this presence/awareness that is aware of all of the experience: thoughts, sensations, emotions. because presence is seeing thoughts "it" creates an illusory self that is causing those thoughts and the one who experiences stuff. free will seems like it exists because presence "sees" the mental talk that is causing certain actions, therefore because of the illusory self it seems like it makes those actions.

sure, i didnt achieve the no self part so it might be premature of me but for the sake of the sake- the current leo's guide as i understand it will reveal the no self, but that is a step below infinity, how do I achieve absolute infinity after that?

@Arkandeus anything more practical?

1 step forward 10 back.. Fucking hell i know the idea of my brain is just an idea, but why cant there exist a thing thats a brain and its me?
