Truth Addict

@Mikael89 that's exactly my point of the original post. The question is: how do I deconstruct my deep rooted beliefs?

@tedens thank you so much @Shin @Shadowraix no, I know that all distinctions are mind-made-up (practical distinctions), how would we communicate and share our thoughts in a way other than that? But thanks for pointing that out to me anyways ? I'll look into my judgements about dreams.

@Shadowraix @Nahm I thought about it a little bit right after I typed the comment. What else could there be but a dream? (dream implies infinite possibilities). A dream machine (dreamer) and a dream, is a concept. There just is the isness of whatever the hell It is.

For Leo to start such a thread, it was the biggest mistake in his life.

@Merch No, there is no force. There is only what you experience (without the concepts about experience). Your direct experience is prior to theory and explanation and science. And to be more precise, there are no two things to be attracted to each other, that is just a thought. A relatively valid one. When Leo talks existentially, he is always pointing to the Absolute existential Truth. Stop thinking about the universe as a strictly-following-the-rules-machine. Instead, appreciate how little we know about the universe and how everything could possibly change in a blink of an eye. Just because gravity worked perfectly for let's say from your birth until now, does not mean that it's absolute (or as Leo put it, doesn't exist).

@Nahm if you are talking literally, then I have to ask: how is the dream machine bound to only dream and do nothing else? Doesn't that make you suspicious that the machine is not the ultimate Truth?

Okay, thanks. What is your advice then?

@Rilles yeah, that is quite a problem for me too. I can't benefit anymore from the question "who am I?" because I already know this experience is one and not two. But what is this experience? I'm kind of failing to make a progress there. Still, I live life with the sense that I am the body, etc... @Anton Rogachevski Nice!

@Victor Mgazi Thank you. Yeah, I'm trying my best not to delude myself. I don't suppose my dreams must have meanings, but this one in particular felt very differently from normal dreams, because I was conscious the whole time. I just wanted to hear other views about that, so thank you again

@SQAAD No, that's just a concept that requires time in the equation, which turns out to be an illusion. It's better put: everything is infinitely intelligent.

@TisDoney I don't think enlightenment and unconditional happiness are the same thing. Do you think so? I understand that enlightenment is Truth realisation, and with it comes true happiness. Happiness alone is not called enlightenment, rather it's called unconditional happiness. Anyway, are you Truth-realised?

@Surfingthewave Actually, I think you should let go of it. That's how you keep it. Let it go...

@Aakash I thought you'd be in Hawaii by now.

Okay, sorry. Who are you again?

@clouffy I don't know about other people, but I was super depressed and unhappy, and now I am the happiest person on earth. I'm not enlightened yet, but I'd say that understanding yourself, mind and emotions, is very rewarding.

@Manjushri Do whatever you think you should do, but simply be there when you do it. When you walk, notice: "I'm walking". When you talk, notice: "I'm talking". Apply this for everything in your life, and you will be just fine.

@Lacru It varies. You'll learn what to do and how to do it by time. Time gives experience, and experience is all you need. There's no specific response to anything at all, and most of the times the reaction comes spontaneously. You need to know what you want and how to get it. Just simple as this. @Arhattobe ?

@SQAAD it can have all sorts of effects on your body. Use it wisely with caution. I had a sore throat because of it. I think it varies from one person to another. Stay well. Health before wealth.

How do you know?

@Bobby is there any distinctions between past-present-future? Funny thing is, even right now is not right now. Because what is it exactly? What is the substance of it? Where does it start and end?

@Conceptually-made Here's the only one rule to life: There's no rules. (Ironically, it applies to the original rule as well).
