Monkey-man

can you elaborate? you mean being attached to your self-image?

Love-Hate must be something metaphysical and even cosmogonic. Do you have any good hypothesis why love and hate are interconnected? I can't find satisfying enough answer.

do u have blog

conflicts are great thing for spiritual growth, for ego dissolution, if you react to them appropriately - surrendering:

There's Truth of ultimate reality of Alfa but there's also Truth of life of Alfa and omega which is the real Truth and real purpose Go full circle. You want ultimate enjoyment, but for this one need to go to Truth of life after he realizes truth of ultimate reality If one man can find Truth of life it will lead humanity to literal paradise or at least make it closer. Jesus did it but he didn't yet finish his mission because that's the divine plan. Not much people went till the Truth of life, actually probably only Jesus did, among 'famous' people. And maybe some saints. Most gurus realized truth of ultimate reality, but truth of life is beyond that I am the Truth - Way - Life. (C) Jesus Truth of life is the path, your whole life is the path, life the game, the matrix, and you are potential savior

Don't only rely on one source, otherwise it will really become a cult. Actualized.org is useful to understand reality and spirituality as a sort of deconstruction or cleaning up everything until nothing remains so you can have clean view, but you also need to combine this radical non-dual approach to spirituality with other things: religions, scriptures, psychology, art, science etc. etc etc Because if you only have nothingness then you will turn ideas that people share on this forum into dogmas. Because you need ground anyway, and its important to update ground all the time. Don't follow into reductionism trap, coz model is required to navigate, you just need to update your model, never settle for anything even if you are super-enlightened. And nonduality is quite useless without traditional spirituality, modern teachings are useless without ancient teachings. Because these all are signs, maps, some better some worse. And always think for yourself, deconstruct all of that and then intuitively integrate each in one another, nothing can really be thrown away, its all has reason for existence, even if seems like archaic non-sense to you. And do this not for entertainment but well to survive spiritually, and to live like you were designed to live, and to find what you lost, and for that you need to understand what our life is about, and what is the true way, what is the narrow gate? To do that one need to think like child (have no prejudices and have 'magical' or symbolic thinking) patient, humble and mindful to his ideas, thoughts, experiences, even his 'truth-realisations', feelings, emotions, and even mindful to his mindfulness, and of course follow your silent soul within heart, its like compass without form, words, voice, it can somehow show you the way if you are mindful enough to follow it. Life is a puzzle and we are here to undertake journey, we don't really know what we are seeking, and dedicate yourself fully to the path, make it your life and mind that spiritual path is not just techniques, it is life, it is quest of life, its not just to be better person, it is really a game, a quest, a transformation from Pinocchio into a real boy, Jesus said only few will find the narrow path. While most on the path will be deceived by themselves, by their own experiences, by their own happiness.

there's no problem. blushing is great thing to have, it means your ego is not yet big to make you a liar. you are still honest and this honesty expressed in your face through blushing. no need to fix anything, honestly do research on blushing, its not bad thing at all. its not something to be fixed. good luck

One crucial mechanism is surrender, quicker you gave away your will quicker the whole process is. Surrender is not being patient until better times, and it is not giving up as rejection of being. Its a conscious (not subconscious!) acceptance of what is, so it is embracing of what is, and total emotionless readiness for all the hardships of presence and potential hardships of future. It's also conscious(!) letting go all of your desires and needs because that create duality and prevent surrender. You start from little surrender because ego resists big time but eventually through several preliminary realisations process leads you to the point of full surrendering to god-you agree for anything even death, and bam, enlightenment - end of seeking. The practice of Surrender doesn't end with enlightenment though because very subtle ego is still there, you continue to cultivate surrender in daily communications and daily life so you can embody higher and higher enlightening realisations, but it's no longer a seeking but just art of life. Surrender allows to be in the moment fully and that allows the evolutionary energy to descent into your head more freely and purify your charkas and that makes consciousness to break through the head. Truly simple process, you don't need to do anything special, you just give away your psychological deficiencies and let the divine fire to burn it, so simple but not easy to perform. Oh its not easy at all, especially if you are surrounded by really unconscious family whose only desire is to trigger you, for they don't know what they are doing. But on the other hand, unconsciousness of ppl helps you, coz u surrender to that 'hardship' and absurdity and this really diminishes ego big time.

Realization of nondual awareness and ultimate reality as Oneness of impersonal Brahman is only one out of three aspects of Absolute Truth. And its not the main and final aspect but only a first step towards the highest form of spiritual realization which is realization of Bhagavan - forming personal relationship with God - with the Supreme Person/Lord aspect of God. Buddha's realization was of ultimate oneness - of Brahman or of Paramatma, but it wasn't perfect and highest from the perspective of natural spiritual evolution. While Jesus went beyond Buddha, he realized God in its highest form as a supreme person (Lord, God-the-Father). So beyond undifferentiated impersonal oneness of Absolute there is differentiated relationship between human and God as Lord and Servant, Father and Son, Friend and his little human Friend. 'God is the dude in the sky!' is actually end up as the most accurate metaphor of absolute. While infinity, nothingness, consciousness, impersonal Brahman aspects are only half of the story. https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/its-all-onenot-vaishnava-response-advaita-vedanta-steven-rosen “It's All One”—Not! (A Vaishnava Response to Advaita Vedanta) Krishna in Bhagavat Gita also said that realization of relationship with personal Absolute God is higher than realization of impersonal aspect of Brahman. And forming such obedient relationship can itself lead to spiritual realizations. So monotheism of Judeo-Christian and Islamic traditions based on faith, total submission and obedience to Supreme Being were indeed the highest form and understanding of all spiritual seeking of human history. For any being to live in this reality in its most proper and natural and apparently the most happiest way is to fit himself in the hierarchical order of God and Human - reality simply works in such hierarchical order, adult-child, adult is personal aspect of God and child is human-being. God the adult is the one who does everything and child is one who simply plays while doing what God 'tells' him (God's will = nonpsychological actions not based on mind's stereotypes and desires) without being bothered by all the adult-staff. Truly, reality is simple and genious. God is simple, its not complicated. Reality in its true design is the eternal childhood with God-the-Father watching after his kids while kids obey and trust to the father. Archetypes of lost divine father makes sense now.

@cirkussmile Jesus Is god the son. In Christianity there is trinity, God is trinity of god-the-father, god-the-son and Holy Spirit. It's all one and yet each one relates to another, Jesus related to God-the-father as his Father and his Lord, and also said that they are one.

@Leo Gura no Leo I think u didn't read the article properly. God is both you and something other than you that is related to you. To choose only one of this is to adopt rational understanding of god: it's either this or that, either A or B. But oneness is both A and B, it's one and also it has two within it and infinity within it. Article points to that there is no separation but yet there are relationships inside oneness. How do you explain this relativity of oneness? Full circle is to go back to duality but now it's transcendental duality within non-duality, it's no longer a separateness of you vs world but nondual relationship of you and the world or you and the god. It's like early childhood - you don't yet have sense of self, yet you relate to your parents, you relate to the other, you even try to satisfy the other. There is no you but there is other. Stage 2 of spiral dynamics. You are one with everything but yet there is other, the other is you but also you relate to it. Otherwise there is no dynamic aspect of god, only static, and for dynamics you need to have something to relate to another thing. And you can become aware of it,its third aspect of absolute truth, its not concepts. advaita Vedanta and Buddhism are not the highest forms of spirituality, but very limited because their purpose of achieving moksha is limited itself. To pray to yourself doesn't work at all, on the other hand praying and submission to supreme god works, and it alone can lead you to enlightenment. In my humble opinion, you neglect the phenomenas of faith, devotion, prayer and worshipping to supreme God as nonsensical, but yet they can extremely speed up your progress. And they are the highest and most natural form of spirituality humanity has ever found, higher than meditation and self inquiry, because you allow god to do it's evolutionary job of enlightening you and harmonising you with the reality while you just submit, surrender to him. Just like he transformed monkeys into humans without monkeys having self-awareness and doing anything particular for that transformation, he continues to transform us. You probably don't like such classical understanding of God and think about it as mere concepts and dogmas but maybe you will understand what I'm trying to say through your own experience later on your path.

He related to God as to Father, and he also said they are one. So its both: oneness and two. He talked about both nonduality/oneness and personal/relative aspect of God. And when he was dying on the cross, he was confused first but eventually outsourced his 'will' to Father - 'your will be done' (c) he let it be, surrendered and had full trust in father. So Jesus showed again that Bhagavan/personal aspect of God is the most comprehensive one, same as in Vaishnava and Bhagavat Gita.

@Nahm there is no separation but yet there is relationships and relativity. The whole article above answers to this paradox. Oneness is half of the story, and its not the most comprehensive aspect of Truth, it is only the first out of three aspects of absolute truth.

@Nahm Haha not the matter nor the boards. I meant that there are ego's will and god's will, ego's will is in our mind's desires and god's will is when we let go mind's desires and act spontaneously (not psychologically but 'from the heart') outsourcing 'all the problems' to adult - the supreme being. Apparently, even after enlightenment one still has subtle 'hidden' ego and its desires. Thats why it is important to keep in mind the difference in order to progress further. This nonpsychological actions are I guess the soul's desires = god's will = god's tasks.

Jews are God-chosen nation, chosen to fulfill global spiritual development of current era Jesus, the saviour of our world, the reason why homo sapiens still exists and can still survive and evolve, was incarnated as a Jew precisely because of that, that region was prepared for him, vibrational frequency has risen high there. That helped him to fulfill his mission asap. Then Jews spread across the world to spread spiritual vibe and spiritual knowledge They are clever/highly conscious because God gave them this gift so they can focus on their mission from the beginning Of course higher u fly lower u fall, many Jews have been seduced by mammona because mammona as well as any demonic force focuses on the most gifted ones But thats fine, Kingdom of God is coming

lol who wouldn't like to be naked in the Eden Garden with Eve? its much better than to have ego and contemporary civilization, art and science

Actually I think this video can really change many muslims! Muslims who do practice everyday prayer are extremely devoted and self-disciplined, they can become enlightened very fast through Islam if they only know about it and about the whole trickiness of ego thing. I think we should spread video across online forums dedicated to Islam

Just as any biblical story Adam n eve operates on various levels simultaneously coz as above so below thr story is both metaphorical and literal

@Crystalous that's common issue people reach nirvana and think that it's the main enlightenment - nope, the main thing is what comes after that. Nirvanic impersonal paradise is transcendental or witness state, it can feel good in the beginning but eventually your body loses descending energy because of your ascension into nirvana and body becomes vulnerable and will panic. So in order to proceed one must go back into body and continue mindfulness, observing thoughts and emotions and all the egoic reactions and typical spiritual work in order to 1)prevent attacks from astral/vital planes, emotional rollercoaster is natural consequences in the witness state, you need to stay mindful and not get triggered by emotions 2) let the energy to descend through your head and purify chakra canals until enlightenment. The whole process between witness state and enlightenment can take like two weeks because you just need allow the energy to flow into you and stay mindful, conscious, observing thoughts and emotions, and also surrender. But vanish got caught up by destabilized emotions by main enlightenment I don't mean final one but the most remarkable, crucial step on the path

Once you transcend your consciousness into nirvana but not enlightened yet (not in kingdom of god state) your consciousness lose your body's protection and you are target for all kinds of vital forces that can make you to commit suicide. Buddha had many attacks of such kind just before his awakening under Bodhi tree. Second thing is the way he reached transcendental consciousness or witness state - ice bath and month in darkness and starvation - what the fak? Such techniques will drive anyone to insanity, people try to get fast results and eventually do wrong things, spiritual path has to do with energy and energetic mechanisms should be understood but he used brute force- God knows what happened to him but if it ended up badly then well he will probably reincarnate and start everything again, God is all forgiving.

woman should look healthy and natural - these are quite important on a deep subconscious level, but her beauty is not really that important for man Lemme tell ya a secret i've noticed - most men try to avoid girls who are very beautiful I don't know why exactly but its very common it might be because beautiful women usually have narcissistic personality these days, probably men can feel that

72 virgins. I think 72 virgins might not be true, but also it can be quite literal, not mere metaphor of enlightenment. Since this is infinity and there are possibly many dimensions even within our Earth with all kinds of heavens and hells, then I wont be surprised that there are actually some heavenly dimension with 72 virgins where some people might end up going lol.

thats conceptualizations. Jesus showed us the direct path This is stream-entry in Buddhism, Jesus has achieved first self-realization here, Kundalini had bursted through his head and his consciousness localization has escaped his head. Holy Spirit is descending energy that make us enlightened. After his consciousness localization escaped his head and became everywhere, he is vulnerable and open to this world's energetic stream. But eventually after 40 days he won over temptations and had enlightenment. First dhyana in Buddhism. Or in other words 'born to soul' - end of psychological suffering, fears, doubts, feeling of eternity, bliss, love etc. Ego had started to crumble. Mind is almost silent. But its not yet end of the game. He then spends 2 or 3 years being active in the world - it is karma yoga, jnani yoga and bhakti yoga. After first dhyana - ego is still subtly present and can eat your soul and make you a zen devil if you are not mindful enough and follow your spiritual ego's will instead of surrendering fully to God's will. (this is something many enlightened people do these days - they become super-happy after first dhyana and just do whatever their spiritual ego wants. That can make you stuck for ages. Even chosen ones will be deceived (c) jesus). Throughout his teachings his power to perform miracles has become more and more - it means he eventually reached 4-5-6th dhyana (full enlightenment = infinite consciousness) and maybe even till 9th the last dhyana (Buddhahood = cessation of perceptions). Who knows - but full Buddhahood wasn't his mission. He didn't teach how to escape the world like Buddha but he teach what actually to do in this world and what is going to happen. 4-5th dhyanas are where as Buddha said superpowers might be obtained. So Jesus became conscious of absolute of atman=brahman. 'I am and Father is ONE' (c) Jesus. Mind that he said 'I and God is One'. Not I am God as many enlightened people do these days. That ideas can only boost ego. This is the most important thing here. We tend to think that Jesus taught enlightenment and thats it. No, Jesus taught beyond enlightenment, Jesus taught divinization of the matter! Descendance of heaven into earth. Jesus taught how to give birth to your new supramental body that will then live in actual 'Kingdom of God'! Because quantum leap of evolution = Judgement Day is going to happen that will change Earth. Sri Aurobindo is the only one who really understood that among all the new teachers. So total surrender to God's will + constantly work on diminshing ego after first enlightenment are the keys. He actually resurrected, not metaphorically, he gave birth to his new light body.
