In reality there is only one indivisible awareness. It is One and we are That. That awareness has the same body and mind.

The only absolute truth I know is that I am, but I'm sure there are others. The thing is that to know absolute truths is to give up your own separate existence, truth is beyond the reach of mind. It is a matter of experience.

It is possible but not until a Master/Sadhguru bestows his grace upon you. Very few has annihilated the ego and realized the Self identical with God without any help.

The moment you realize you are nothing, zero nothing- and your sense of self (the ego) slowly becomes weaker.

To me there are no sensible objection to the existence of higher powers, only to a personal God, a imaginary and mind-made concept. But there are less problems using higher powers, powers that are both within us and outside us.

Higher powers. I don't like the word God and nor do I believe in a god, I believe in higher powers, that resonates with me and my experience. Conscious spirit or awareness is a nice word too, I feel like that's what we truly are.

Bipolar is just a label. Don't identify yourself with man-made labels. You are infinite and your experiences matter. To find the Truth you must go beyond the mind, even become insane. But insanity is really sanity. I did lose my mind, almost became insane. But it was the only way I found out the Truth, that reality is divine and absurd. It was the only way I left my body to experience the unexplained.

There is and has always been only ever present awareness, there is no such thing as death. You have put a claim on existence, saying it is mine. People are attached to life, that's why they fear death. But a man with no identity or attachment to existence cannot fear death. Realize that life just is, it doesn't belong to anyone. It just IS, but it is not mine. If you really realize this, you are free.

Yeah, several times. It's the pathway to wonders.

Science and the scientific method is itself a self-deception, it's a human construct, simple as that. For all other animals, science is not valid. It's only for the human mind. Like for example evolution, it's a complete here say, but we actually believe it happened when we never saw it happen. We believe it happened millions of years back, we take time to be real, that a past actually existed. But no, that may all be wrong.

The supreme reality makes everything possible for us, the very fact that you exist. But what is the use in believing in God? Not so much. You have to experience God, only then do you stop believing and start knowing. Ordinary consciousness tries to make sense of God, creation implies a creator etc, that's all he can do. But to find the God, you have rise in consciousness, only then is it possible to meet God.

@egoless If it is in your experience then it works, but it doesn't exist in my experience. A belief is a belief, different from direct experience or what works for you or not. It's a difference to Believe and to Know.

It's a barrier, law of attraction is also a belief. Be honest; it is as it is. You leave everything and let everything be as it is. For example does God exist? You can say it is for itself what is true. It's that simple, now do that with all beliefs. Only I exist, the rest is for itself. You exist, and you perceive a world trough your senses, that's it. But why believe anything? Leave it. Whatever is true is true, whatever is false is false. No matter what belief it is, if it is not in your direct experience it is false. Leave it. It doesn't exist. All beliefs are illusions, supported by mere language and logic.

You will face darkness in the spiritual journey, you have to go beyond it. It is the ego that is afraid, overcome it and you will conquer your inner world. The best and most profound thing which can happen is that you ''die''. You have nothing to lose anyways, just a false sense of a separate self, a ''you'' which is nothing but a dream. You have to be willing to find out the truth so much that nothing else matters, even willing to die for it, only then are you ready my friend, only then will you know ultimate reality.

Yeah the mind creates both time and space. Both exist in you, you don't exist in them. The illusion of time is great, only a man who inquire deep enough and investigates will ultimately see it as it is, an illusion in the mind. Science is also an illusion chasing other illusions, so I don't care what science says about time or space.

@Nahm Yeah I will indeed. I'm actually going to Amsterdam in a week time and trip on magic truffles. I know it can rip me away which is why I'm going for a high dose this time haha.

One time with magic mushrooms.

Indeed, all psychedelics can rip away the ego and it's beliefs, we just need to take enough of it. With weed you need time as well due.

God is simply a higher power, it cannot be desribed, but it can be known. I have not taken 5meo, but 2 years of smoking a lot of hash everyday and meditating can give the same effect, and give a glimpse of a higher power, which I eventually had, a very powerful one too. This not a matter of belief and these plants are not there without a meaning or for superficial fun.

No, not after true liberation. A man is born into the ego, it is only when he self-inquire and meditate that a doorway is opened, the doorway to his own spirit. The journey is long and full of supernatural phenoma, he literally dies and is reborn, then finally is he liberated (Moksha, enlightenment). He becomes emptiness and nothingness, all identification dies. That's the hero's journey for all saints and prophets.

Prophets had at least a glimpse of the Truth, including Jesus and Muhammad. It's futile to communicate the Truth or enlightenment, that's where you have religion, books like the Bible. But there are many facts in these holy books, from early Judaism to Islam (the scripture of Islamic Dharma is pure wisdom). The experiences of prophets are greater than the universe but most cannot understand them. The best for them was to keep quiet given their circumstances.

We speak about deconstruction, but to imply it is another thing. You know you exist, it is the most certain thing. But deconstruct all of your ideas and beliefs about reality, what remains? Simply reality, simply what is. The ''outside'' world is as it is, and you are as you are. It's that simple, but most of us can't just let reality be as it is. We have to try and conceptualize it with our mind, try and ''explain'' it with our minds, which is futile. True deconstruction is deconstructing all beliefs and ideas about reality, leaving your mind completely neutral and empty.

I have been diagnosed schizophrenic. I like to keep myself alone. I don't have friends I have family. My stand on reality is simple, it is as you experience it. I like to think I have realized God, but most won't believe me although I have been held down by a power which could only have been from God. But that's a story which I don't except people to believe, but I know it as a fact because it is my experience. The paradigm/stigma against schizophrenics is ridiculous, just because we experience reality different we are seen as insane or whatever, the fact is the complete opposite. We know reality from the ordinary one, which makes us simply special, or as the Shaman would say, we have special gifts.

Self-realization which leads to God-realization. God-realization is the highest state of consciousness - Meher baba.

I'll just take it as it comes with peace - what happens next only God knows, but I'm fine with whatever. It is as it is.
