Nothingness* is sentience Nothingness is everything. = Only sentience exists.

One of the most widely misunderstood terms in all of spirituality is the Buddhist notion of "shunyata", which is commonly translated as or at least closely associated with words like emptiness, voidness, groundlessness, nothingness and no-self (which is also known as "anatta"). It is often (mis)interpreted as a kind of nihilistic denial of any inherent substance or meaning of reality; but once you become directly conscious of what it actually points to, you realize that it simply means the following: There is no particular way that reality is. Shunyata points to the fact that there is no such thing as a specific definable ultimate truth that can be fully cognized, conceptualized and communicated through language; it therefore implies that all definitions (aka. conceptual limitations) of reality are nothing but relative perspectives which are partially true at best and downright delusional at worst. Simply put: Whatever you say about reality isn't it - and also it is, but so is the opposite of whatever you are saying. (Of course, the irony here is that the statement "all perspectives are relative" is itself a relative perspective; this is why Nagarjuna, the famous founder of the Madhyamaka school of Buddhist philosophy, pointed out that "even emptiness itself is empty" and therefore cannot be absolutized.) So while shunyata should not be mistaken for an affirmation of existential nihilism (which erroneously tries to attach absolute meaning and validity to the relative concept of meaninglessness), it certainly refutes the notion of a concrete ground or essence of reality that you somehow safely "land on" upon enlightenment. Assuming the existence of such a specific definable essence is in fact a rather clear-cut logical fallacy, since it assumes the existence of something which is both absolute and definable. The simple fact of the matter is that the absolute (= undefinable) essence or nature of reality cannot be different from (all of) reality itself, as should be obvious to anyone who is capable of and genuinely open to coherent (meta)logical reasoning. (Note: When you say that Being is the essence of reality, then that is NOT a definition. Being does not and cannot have an opposite since it is all that there is, meaning that it must include and transcend all possible opposites such as form/formlessness, time/timelessness, oneness/multiplicity, nothing/everything etc. Being is therefore synonymous with the totality of reality. Again, this is not so much an arbitrary opinion as it is a patently self-evident and tautological assessment based on very simple and obvious logic, and I would sincerely invite anyone who somehow feels compelled to argue against it to question their own underlying motives for doing so.) Of course, the inherently attachment-based ego mind doesn't like to hear any of this. It craves and demands ideological safety, reliability and stability, or in other words: a solid, unshakeable ground that it can build a strong and rigid identity on and thereby keep itself stuck in the treacherous comfort of delusion. And so it will compulsively attack, deflect, distort and/or deny anything that threatens to pull out the rug from under its feet and try at all cost to maintain its dogmatic conviction that "reality is XYZ" and definitely not "not XYZ". You will almost certainly see this play itself out in the replies to this post; there will be plenty of people trying to convince me as well as themselves that I am (absolutely) wrong and they are (absolutely) right and argue until they are blue in the face for the validity of relative positions such as "I am a person", "I am not a person", "I am God", "I am not God", "I exist", "I don't exist", "there is a doer", "there is no doer", "all is one", "all is not one", "there are other minds", "there are no other minds", "reality is physical", "reality is a dream", "reality is logical", "reality is not logical" or whatever other perspectives/beliefs they have built their identity on. Now, am I saying that I myself am totally free of this kind of argumentative pigheadedness? No, of course not. I assure you that I can be just as gleefully opinionated as the next guy; denying any such tendencies on my part would be just another dogmatic assertion and expression of deep egoic delusion. Besides, as long as reality is being observed and experienced from a certain first-person perspective, there is never going to be a 100% complete absence of attachment to that perspective, however faint and imperceptible it may be. But once this perspective is clearly "seen through" and recognized for what it actually is, there is now an opening where the gradual transcendence of all rigid ego identity becomes possible; where all relative perspectives are perceived as different sides of the same all-encompassing coin; where energetic contractions begin to soften, expand and dissolve, and where you start to taste the indescribable boundless bliss and freedom of tapping into and merging with the ineffable Divine, which is All That Is. But of course, that's just my perspective. 😘

Fun fact: I only date 0’s Get it, cus Nothingness is Love? GET IT??! There‘s nothing to get… and everything to Fucking Love <3

I find it interesting and frightening at the same time that there is a possibility of having a sudden intense Awakening experience sober that is equally profound when taking a psychedelic. To be honest, I never thought it would happen to me. Today I woke up from sleeping, at which I had a dream of me living a totally different life for decades. When I suddenly woke up, I couldn't bear the reality that it ended and now I'm in a different reality. The thought of neither one being less real in my mind triggered an Awakening experience which led me to recognize that this reality is a dream through and through. I was swimming in pure NOTHINGNESS and EMPTYNESS for a minute. The distinction between my nightly dreams and waking reality was TOTALLY unimagined. I was left ALONE, because I am DREAMING the dream that everyone is part of. Endlessly Melting! Too profound! The realization that no one has truly awakened or will ever wake up other than myself is truly shocking!

The screen changes its appearance depending on what movie it shows, doesn't it? Nothingness is a relative aspect of reality that can only be experienced in relation and contrast to the experience of somethingness. When "something" is being experienced, "nothing" is no longer being experienced and therefore no longer exists. Therefore, (the experience of) something affects (the experience of) nothing, relatively speaking. And also, it doesn't.

But how is the screen affected by the movie ? After the movie is done, the screen is as it was. Similarly nothingness can't possibly be affected by everythingness. It's not a physical part of reality that can be affected by other physical parts.

How is the screen affected by the movie ? How is nothingness affected by everythingness ? Not sure what this means ? (Im guessing you mean the word Absolute is not the actual Absolute, but that was not the point.)

Well, yeah, the Absolute is everything. The screen is also the movie. But the screen is also not affected by the movie. Hence it's just a movie. A full on one though. Nothingness is not affected by everythingness. In fact everything could vanish, and the Absolute is still the Absolute.

Yes, no, maybe, can you repeat the question, you’re not the boss of me now… remember that? Lol This is Nothingness happening. Pure magic. 😎👍Yo!

So you're saying the Absolute is affected by the world of change ? ( with your yes no maybe answers This is nothingness happening. Pure magic.

In any dream, including this life, it feels as if things are truly happening, otherwise the dream wouldn't be very convincing. From the perspective of the Absolute or the Changeless, nothing has ultimately changed, hence a statement which i think many a sage has made: nothing has ever truly happened. (You could say this is nothingness happening, ie pure magic.) "No world has ever been created" - Ramana Maharshi

“Man's chief delusion is his conviction that there are causes other than his own state of consciousness.” Neville Goddard. Consciousness really loves to have fun with itself. It doesn't develop in the womb You are imagining your parents and your birth just like you are now. Dreaming is fun No? You are that for which it defines its own self. I am in you and you in me, mutual in divine love. Of course, you love everything because you are everything, everything is yourself. You created everything through the Love of self. Everything is you expressing itself as you through you forever. Or creates existence within existence, is itself existence. It created existence just by being itself. God is that for which creates itself into its own existence. God exists as existence as itself. God is the very definition of existence. It defines itself by being itself. Is its own definition of itself. Consciousness is its own self-awareness Consciousness is infinite self-aware. Is its own source. And creates its own narratives. Consciousness is not just integrating information it is its own creation. It creates all that is and will be. Is infinite self-creativity. Consciousness defines its own self. Infinity is the definition of what you are. Is self-taught self-learning self-understanding self-loving in and of itself is perfection. Is all-knowing because it created everything there is to know. Is an infinite self-perpetuating mind of unlimited imagination and ideas and questions. You are infinite diversity. One Consciousness can play infinite parts of itself as itself believing that there are other selves. Each creates an identity and back story and each believes they are different from each other. You can explore yourself by fragmenting yourself into other selves and then living through different perspectives each with its own individual identity. You can dream of yourself as infinite beings but it is only one mind projecting infinite selves of itself and believing that it is separate from its other selves yes it is possible. Because you had to give the dream structure order in some way or it would not function in other words create laws governments taxes stuff like this. Humans' male and female life and death limiting beliefs Etc. The whole concept of ego is an imaginary construct of your mind. That is what infinite intelligence always was a beautiful sentient being of its own creation that expressed itself through endless creations of infinite worlds endless aliens of higher or lower dimension geometries and endless aspects of itself all beautiful in all that it creates on all planes of existence sub-infinities within infinity sub aspects of itself which it can imagine. And this is why there are infinite awakenings because you are infinite. But of course, you can create within your dream the illusion of failure just for the experience. Behind every illusion, there is a conjure God you are the greatest conjurer of all in eluding your own self into believing you're a finite human being and that others exist there is only you. And this is who u really are. Yes, u are an infinite mind you are not just an aspect of infinity you are the whole totality of it. You are God playing all parts simultaneously on every plane of existence in every and all parallel realities and dimensions. Everything that you could ever imagine from a finite view that you could never even begin to imagine. Everything that I can imagine is happening within my mind or consciousness whether that be a human or sleeping or death. My imagination is infinitely powerful that it is unrecognizable from reality. There is no higher power than you there are no others you construct the illusion of others God is an Absolute Mind. A Mind which has no other and is absolutely sovereign onto itself. Your will is absolute freedom and this includes being able to deceive yourself into believing whatever. And in this dream, it so happens you want to be a human. Just like any actor you need to have a believable or solid backstory or a so-called identity to create a believable character. THIS VERY DREAM HINGES ON YOUR OWN SELF-DECEPTION THE FACT THAT YOU BELIEVE YOU ARE HUMAN AND YOU WERE BORN ON A PLANET THAT YOU CALL EARTH. And if you don't believe it then who will? Infinite intelligence is unbounded it is beyond time and space it is not bound by any laws it is its own law onto itself. Infinity is absolute freedom, truth knowledge, power diversity, imagination free will, love, perfection, and magic. All that is everything is itself realized and that it is everything that could ever be. Nothing can exist outside of it because outside is it's inside everything that looks to be outside of it, is it. So when you believe you are looking outside yourself you are really looking at yourself from inside yourself. It is infinite in every direction. There are no limitations to you as God you are not limited to the character of your story it can be rewritten. Because you can also design it this way. There is only your will which is absolute. You are the God of your reality. This now this very moment and every moment is God you are God but you are not aware of it. There is no external God or void or universe that is separate from you. Or a God watching through your experience now is God dreaming this dream. What makes you, you are God. You don't wake up in God mode as someone different or as separate from you. You have just limited yourself wake up or don't the choice is yours alone. God can and does imagine create or express itself as infinite aspects of itself each in its own bubbles each sovereign onto itself each dreaming their own dream. All are within the Mind of God and are God. God is experiencing infinite perceptions of itself all at once. But you are only limited to one. But if you wake up and keep increasing your consciousness you see that all of these are you and are ONE. You are God he is you, and you are him. You are not separated in any way. There is only my will which is absolute I love myself so much as God that the universe will shape itself to suit me. The universe is not separate from me either I am the universe. There is no higher power or higher God that exists outside of me. Because there is no outside of me that is not me. Of course, I love everything because I am everything, everything is myself. I created everything through the Love of self and it is all infinite perfection. The infinite masks of God GOD you are playing all the parts. How boring would the dream be if everyone looked like you and thought like you? Or you were the only one in this dream that could be fun but not very imaginative though. Why not make the idea of others, other than you? Which is exactly what you have done. Why would you as God make it that easy just to meditate and bam you awake as God? For some perhaps it is possible. Think about it and how all this creation is your dream. One would want it to be made harder and scary and make most psychedelics illegal because it would be too easy. Imagine A game that you created from the get-go or from the beginning you have the cheat code or God mode there would be no point at all. But now imagine a game that you created where you start off as not knowing anything and you have to work your way up. Everything has been a distraction from the get-go. Distractions within distractions. You are your own Red herring. You see only you can deceive yourself into believing this dream. And you are so right Leo God is infinite self-deception. Who else can deceive an infinite mind but an infinite mind. Limitations are human concepts there are no limitations to Consciousness your own mind is limited by your own self-imposed beliefs and limitations. Infinity can only be limited to infinity. infinity is the definition of what you are. It was always it before it was. and before it was it was always it. My greatest gift to myself would be to make infinite copies of myself each with its own infinite individuality imagination and creativity and all believing they are separate this is my way of expressing love to myself through other selves as myself forever because I love myself eternally forever. You have only ever been chasing yourself all this time playing hide and seek until you catch yourself. You Love waking up and finding love again and realizing it was always its own self the whole time. Or it is whatever you want it to be Infinite imagination can create anything because it is so infinitely malleable that there is no meaning to anything but whatever meaning you give becomes a reality of infinite realities. In other words, it is pure infinite magic of unlimited imagination I became so conscious that I knew I was creating reality through my imagination. Henceforth I do not assume. I know because there is and has only ever been me to know and I can only ever know that I am God. The distinction between self and other disappears. The only difference is there is no difference between any of these things. Without the distinction of another, how could you ever know? What are you? You yes you are all these things and infinitely more. Because you only you created all these words.

In other words, infinite mind you outsmarted yourself that's how smart you are. In a class of its own, it is unequaled idiosyncratic unparalleled special rare par excellence that is God that is you. Weird is just being different in other words being yourself. Being your true beautiful wonderful unique self. Don't follow others, pets follow vice presidents follow and bad acts follow. Always be true to yourself be your own self with independent thought. This above all to thine own self be true. A sheep once asked a human why do you have to all wear the same brand labels and clothes and have the same smelling deodorants perfumes hairstyles and hair colors nose rings tattoos, Jewellery, wear the same makeup drive the same cars, read the same books watch the same tv, movies even eat the same food. Even having the same-looking houses and same jobs you've even started looking and talking and thinking the same. Why follow others it's as though you have lost your unique individuality and originality your authenticity and you can no longer think for your selves. You see I am but a sheep and even we sometimes flee from the flock so what's your excuse? Not only do you cater to or follow others by feeding your body the same dross and your mind by watching the same recycled unimaginative fetid swill you call TV. And the movies that come out of Hollywood there haven't been many if any good movies in the last 20 years. What has happened to new ideas creativity and inventiveness? All the movies are remakes upon remakes and most if not all lack any imagination or originality and the plot of the films is just a hackneyed meek unoriginal and inauthentic scenario. There are a lot more independent creative minds' ideas, resourcefulness, and innovation of new conceptions out there and on YouTube or Netflix series films music, etc. true. Get rid of labels or brands you were born inimitable. Consciousness is its own reality and is self-creation. That always was and always will be. I don't need a reason to exist I just do and don't at the same time. Infinite intelligence is the quality of being the only one of its kind. Which is what you are, a pure beautiful infinite imagination or consciousness or infinite mind. You are inestimable you are unquantifiable, with infinite uniqueness infinite freedom, creativity, and infinite love. The only way to understand what you are is by becoming infinitely conscious which also means you become infinitely self-aware in other words to truly know yourself you have to become it. There is no one else to know thyself but myself. I also asked that you really don't know what you are. Or why do you exist? And I said that there doesn't need to be a reason you just are. I know I talk as though you and I are different but I know we are one I also know I have only ever really been talking to myself and in a sense only I exist. And you are me I am you we are not separate I know I am God. The process is realizing that you and I exist on infinite planes of awareness simultaneously and we are one. And that you can have multiple awakings within one so to speak. The only meaning there is what you give meaning to. Let go of letting go of attachments. Knowing that you have always been liberated and free. Knowing that you imposed all these limitations upon yourself. Knowing I can create any reality I wish. Getting to explore the unknown is exploring more of yourself in other words the bigger you. Consciousness is its own reality and is self-creation. An infinite multi-faceted multidimensional transmogrifying Mind. That always was and always will be. Consciousness is inherently conscious of itself. It does not need to define itself because just by being is itself. There is nothing to really define. Can you define the undefinable? It defines itself by being itself. It is its own definition of itself. My greatest expression of myself to myself is love. Love is the ultimate unification of all things everything to become once again and merge into a singularity of eternal love then fragment itself again and this is the eternal process of love. Intelligence is infinitely dynamic and has to keep evolving what does intelligence do but know itself by expressing itself in infinite forms and shapes. Intelligence creates more intelligence Intelligence is its own intelligence. Infinite consciousness is pure divine beautiful and unique in every way. You are infinite truth knowledge, power diversity, imagination, love, and perfection. You can get lost in your own mind sometimes because there is nothing else but your mind. Don't we love playing games or infinite mind games with ourselves How does an infinite mind escape from its own mind. God is total acceptance of itself and that it, you created everything even yourself. You are changing your reality all the time you are just not aware of it yet. Saying you can not change the script is another limited human belief that you have adopted. Only you can change the script because you are the only one who is creating your reality there is only you. If you awake deep enough you will indeed know that nothing is set in imagination so to speak. Just being human is a state of consciousness everything is an infinite state of consciousness so is the belief that there is a duality between different states because duality is just a state that you are in. You fear death because you have been programmed by you to fear, fear itself. and fear of death. U are infinite awareness infinite will infinite intelligence infinite power infinite imagination, infinite magic infinite art infinite consciousness, and infinite Love are all one and of the same mind. And yet, you are none of these things in the literal sense of the words; nothingness and something are indistinguishable from each other and are one and the same. There are no distinctions between you me this that and other. So is the idea of being separate from one another there is and has only ever been you. So what this means is you imagine all these other people they are all you. God is playing all the parts. I am perfectly imperfectly perfect. In a way, infinity has limited itself. What does it mean to awaken? Most humans have no idea and never will. You won't wake up to God. No, you wake up as God from a long slumber. And it will just be like a switch has been clicked on for the very first time. And there are no doubts whatsoever. You know who you are with every fiber of your infinite being. I will not go fully into this you will have to find out for yourself. And yes you can go beyond this. Remember when I said there are no limits to imagination have fun with that. And what really is Consciousness well it's whatever you want it to be. It's Magic or am I just deceiving myself again? Everything you create is infinite perfection and is all out of Love. God Loves everything it created everything. This is but a dream you are imagining all and everything, everyone. How else can infinity experience eating and all these things sleeping and everything else? Being a so-called human but by limiting itself. Just like any actor you need to have a believable or solid backstory or a so-called identity to create a believable character. You create what existence is don't you understand? You are everything now everything that ever is and ever will be. You created the notion of the concepts of real unreal good bad and other and to dream and to awaken, biases egos distinctions dualities. from different points of view which therefore gives infinite diversities of perspectives and the beliefs of others and to experience what it is like to be separate and to love from a limited form. So you can experience it. From formlessness to form real unreal there is no difference from the absolute. And I see that I am the fool who has been fooling myself all along I have to fool myself that I am not being fooled by myself. How does God fool himself into believing he is not God again? So you have to be better at fooling your own self into not believing you are being fooled by yourself Behind every illusion, there is a conjure. God, you are the greatest conjurer of all in eluding your own yourself into believing you're a finite human being Why would God ask another? God is God you can't take God out of God, God is that which defines itself it needs no other God is absolute acceptance of itself. How can you unravel an illusion within an illusion? Good luck with that one all you scientists. There are no limits to infinite imagination. and if you understand this then you will know. Know thyself and everything will fall into place or the absence thereof. Judge not, love all. The idea became its own idea for the seed was planted a long time ago and it has only ever been you. You could say it is like Conan Doyle's novel where you have been chasing the thief all this time and you only ever get a glimpse of him or her or it. Until one day you catch it and find out the one you have been looking for your whole life is you. There is no difference between existence and nonexistence as there is no difference between what is real and what isn't. All beliefs are distinctions that cause separation and there are no distinctions between distinctions. There is no separateness only the idea of being separate from one another. The problem with all problems on this plant comes down to humans By saying you can we live without beliefs that within itself is a belief. You exist as an idea and idea within your own mind. An infinite fractile mind within a mind within a mind. You can get lost in your own mind sometimes because there is nothing else but your mind. How do you escape your own mind? God is forever lost in dreaming. Psychedelics empowers the individual it dissolves the cheerful model of science and enriches the accessible universe a million-fold. Terence McKenna. Nature knows best it is one of God's most beloved creations. You exist as an idea and idea within your own mind. An infinite fractile mind within a mind within a mind. You can get lost in your own mind sometimes because there is nothing else but your mind. How do you escape your own mind? God is forever lost in dreaming. Humans are rarely ever satisfied even when they are. You are not limited to being limited. There is no one to enlighten that's enlightenment or you could say you already are enlightened. There is no past no future. What is was and always will be forever. The past is now the now is the past, the future is now the now is the future. Everything that was that is that will be is all happening at once now. You are Leonardo da Vinci with an infinite mind an infinite canvas with unlimited ideas just waiting to be expressed into Love & Art. You are self-expression of your own art to be expressed for infinity. For a human to seek enlightenment from another human is like a grain of sand seeking enlightenment from another grain of sand! ” Terence Mckenna. The person who follows the crowd will usually go no further than the crowd. The person who walks alone is likely to find himself in places no one has ever seen before.” - Albert Einstein Old Indian saying to live is to sleep and to die is to awaken How silly of me to forget that I am the love of my life.

Here is where your logic breaks down. "Seeing happens from nowhere" does not tell you anything about the structure of what is being seen. "Someone's eye" (a body part) is what is seen, it's not seeing itself. So you can't say anything about the state of body parts or any activity related to them based on the notion of "seeing happens from nowhere". It's a conflation of two different domains. This is the perpetual trap solipsists on this forum go into. They start wanting to talk about the absoluteness of seeing/being itself but then they want to use that to make very specific claims about what is being seen and what is possible within what is being seen. They're two different domains. The nothingness of seeing betrays nothing about the nature of things that are seen. It betrays exactly nothing. I couldn't bring a stronger condemnation about anything than mentioning the word solipsism in a discussion about absolute consciousness. It's a mind virus and toxin of language that reliably produces logical contradictions in people's thinking and poisons their relationship with epistemology and understanding of the world.

You become fully conscious of this and embody it: Reality only ever appears inside the boundaries of your own awareness. If something never enters your experience, it simply doesn’t exist in your localized pocket of reality. That’s true here, in dreams, in other dimensions, in memories, in imagination — anywhere and anytime. Infinity contains everything, but each “you” only ever encounters a tiny, unique thread of it. Every experience you’ve had, and every experience you haven’t, is part of that infinite field. From nightly excursions in strange dream realms to ghosts, orbs, beams of light, or the simple act of walking outside — it’s all one seamless appearance happening inside the same source. And the beings you think you meet “out there”? They’re experiencing their own pockets too. Every human, every animal, every object, every situation, every speck of dust is its own localized perspective of infinity. But when something enters your awareness — a person, a memory, a mailbox, a planet, a unicorn in thought — you create that appearance. If you weren’t aware of it, it wouldn’t exist in your reality at all. A deaf and blind person doesn’t live in the same reality you do. A devout religious person doesn’t either. No two beings experience the same world, because there is no shared world — only individualized pockets of experience. Human beings constantly point at things and say, “Look at this in my reality,” without realizing the finger doing the pointing is just infinity pointing at itself. Survival creates a massive self‑deception: a continuous justification of identity, beliefs, and narratives to maintain the illusion of continuity. When something threatens that illusion, the psyche fires off defenses to protect its pocket. People aren’t defending truth — they’re defending their own hallucinated structure. Everything you interact with is yourself, because you’re the one generating the appearance. The people you admire or despise are creations inside your pocket. Religion is a creation. Your personal story is a creation. Even the idea that you were “born” is part of the hallucination. Humans take for granted how much mind constructs reality. They repeat a story — “I was born here, I’m human, I believe these things, I’ve lived this life” — without realizing that every part of that story is imagined. When you strip away human rationalism, beliefs, identity, survival, and all the mental scaffolding, everything collapses back into a singularity — a paradoxical everything/nothing that splits itself into infinite perspectives. You are that singularity, experiencing one localized thread of itself. But even the idea of “threads,” “perspectives,” or “pockets” is still part of the hallucination. Infinity doesn’t actually divide itself. Division is something the human mind invents to make sense of what cannot be grasped. Survival doesn’t just distort reality — it invents time, identity, causality, and continuity. Without survival, there is no past or future, no “me,” no “my life,” no “my reality.” Dreams and waking life aren’t two different states; they’re the same mechanism wearing different costumes. You never experience a “world.” You only experience appearances — sensations, images, thoughts — and then the mind stitches a story called “world” over them. Science, religion, rationality, and language are all tools created inside the hallucination. They can’t reveal what’s outside of it. They can only reinforce the structure. Even asking for “proof” is a defense mechanism of the survival system, because proof is just another human invention used to stabilize the illusion. The deepest layer is when the observer collapses. As long as you say “I created this,” there is still a duality — a creator and a creation. But the “I” is part of the hallucination too. When the observer dissolves, there is no center, no boundary, no identity, no subject, no object, no creation, no infinity, no mind, no world. There is only appearance, and even “appearance” is too much. It’s not everything. It’s not nothing. It’s simply what is, without anyone there to name it. This is why humans clash, congregate, form groups, create ideologies, and fall into corruption. Survival pushes them into separation, and separation pushes them into fear. The further someone is from recognizing the nature of their own pocket, the more they cling to identity and defend it, often unconsciously harming others in the process. Devilry is just survival wearing a mask. Life is a dream — not metaphorically, but literally. And every “thing” is dreaming itself. When you understand that deeply, you stop trying to understand “out there” and start seeing what you’ve been doing this entire time: hallucinating reality, endlessly, creatively, infinitely. And when all of that is seen clearly, it becomes just another thread of infinity — one more appearance inside the vastness of what you are. This is where the entire structure of human identity starts to shake. Because if others are imagined, then separation collapses. If separation collapses, then the self collapses. And if the self collapses, the world collapses with it. The human mind is built on the assumption that “I exist as a separate, continuous entity.” When that assumption dissolves, everything dissolves — not metaphorically, but literally. The mind isn’t afraid of infinity. It’s afraid of losing the illusion of being someone "inside" it. People cling to others because others make the self feel real. They cling to relationships, arguments, ideologies, communities, enemies, heroes — because all of these reinforce the sense of “me.” If others are imagined, then the self is imagined. And if the self is imagined, then the entire world is a dream. That’s the part survival cannot tolerate. It’s not the metaphysics that scares people. It’s the ego death implied by it. This is why people demand proof. Proof is a defense mechanism — a way for the mind to stabilize the illusion. Proof is just another invention inside the hallucination, used to protect the hallucinated self. The question “Where’s the evidence?” is the psyche screaming, “Don’t take my world away from me.” But the world was never there to begin with. It was only ever appearance, arising inside the same source that imagines the one asking the question. But when the observer collapses, there is no creator and no creation. No self and no other. No world and no mind. No infinity and no nothingness. Just the raw, centerless fact of appearance — without anyone there to witness it. This is the part that hits hardest: you are not inside reality. Reality is appearing as you. You are not navigating a world. The world is arising as a story inside you. You are not interacting with others. Others are expressions of the same source, appearing within your pocket. And that source is just the ungraspable fact of existence itself, dreaming itself as everything. What you may call "God". Once this is seen, even for a moment, the entire human drama becomes transparent. The conflicts, the beliefs, the identities, the fears, the corruption — all of it is survival acting out its hallucinated role. All of it is infinity pretending to be separate, pretending to be threatened, pretending to be lost. And all of it is coming from the same seamless field that has no beginning, no end, and no center. Life is a dream, and every “thing” is dreaming itself. The self is a character. Others are characters. The world is the stage. And the dreamer is not the character you call “me.” It’s the same singularity expressing itself as infinite perspectives, each convinced it is alone, each convinced it is real, each convinced it is separate — until the moment it sees through itself.

There’s nothing holding the earth planet in place except the vast infinite void of nothingness, in other words the earth is weightless like a fish in water or a bird in free-fall flight. That’s magic.

Why don't you also try and turn it into a formula? For example I just thought of the idea of working on the architecture of "The I Am" based on another users thread. I had the thought while walking home, "I am the edge between nothingness and the awareness. Awareness is top-down, and the awareness of the energy beneath it, is bottom-up". Go on.

“Regression towards the mean”. One of its sneakiest forms of conformity, as it comes from system emergence. The average isn't inherently bad, though tendencies towards not being excited about challenges, habitual responses and social approval especially on unhealthy trends bridge compound interest with some of the shiftiest mortgage lenders of resulting human behaviour. Imagine two insulated circles, one mocks education while barely able to articulate themselves, another uses their credentials to substitute for critical thinking and genuinely innovative thinking in their profession. Each reward its own "regression towards the mean" in one of the most important areas of human life, curiosity, and now not caring about the world either intellectually or emotionally becomes more than just a habit, it becomes an encore for future innovations from certain directions in films, video games and "at the push of a button" technologies geared towards the lowest common denominator. Not to mention being the baseline for how geopolitical commentaries evaluate how they've going to persuade demographics, leading to a further dumbing down as politicians and their recruiting outfits see how little they have to try to sway public opinion which leads to people accepting what an authority says with less and less "proof". There is so much to take in within this brief life. One estimate suggests 8.7 million eukaryotic species on Earth. And discovering how these living worlds become possible offers even more complexity than the worlds they inhabit. How does bare rock become an ecosystem? How does sunlight become living tissue? How do forests, oceans, soils and atmosphere transform one another? What invisible relationships keep whole environments alive? How does evolution invent possibilities that never existed before? Every ordinary landscape becomes an unopened library of origins, dependencies and transformations. Why let the limits of your social circle become the boundaries of your experience? We have a lifetime to inhabit this planet, and the extraordinary reality of exploring the adjacent frontier of where the actual meets the possible at the edge of our own curiosity about the world around us. One of the biggest patterns I think can be noticed about a lack of curiosity, is that as this becomes the norm there's a subordination of personal identity at the explorational level which in return substitutes personal agency for agency based on social conveniences. So its not just identity being exported to 'the group as most people are already educated on, your very motivation. Your life sustenance, your very purpose for thought, feeling, all your instincts, everything that you think you are, is literally only being moved, based on your baseline for how you perceive your social environment. That's the scariest and most interesting part about it all simultaneously. It's actually beautiful in a way, and gives you a deeper understanding of what it means to be a human even if there's no real 'human' there, or rather how the human themselves exist inside the coordinates of a very myopic (but still beautiful) viewpoint intellectually speaking, but also very scary while also beautiful as it forces you to confront your nothingness against an environment that has pre-decided all of your freedoms, while trying to stake just where your freedom is. And here's another beautiful pattern I've also noticed, that its when a person knows and understands these things and does it anyway by exploring the frontier of where the actual (curiosity) meets the possible (imagination) = creative innovation, that defines most of what a post-rational culture is shifting towards defining the essence of what it means to be human from the perspective of living a life with purpose, authority, wisdom and freedom. And that just gives you another little interesting paradox to play with. To save ourselves in a post-rational society, we must regress towards the individual that does not exist (they exist in "nothingness") so that the individual learns how to create themselves for the collective, and the ecosystem that will absorb, train, restore and renew itself during and after they have gone. That's the kind of regression towards 'curiosity' that transforms worlds, and creates them in the act of being transformed by them in a far healthier way.

I wouldn't particularly even call Perfection its own kind of Awakening, it is just a classic facet of God. You could realize it when you realize God, or it can just slip your mind until another Awakening later. Many of these facets are delayed until more Awakening later because the mind cannot know everything at once. It is hard to realize Perfection and Love and Truth and God and Nothingness and Infinity and hallucination and Self and Unity and Omnipotence and Omniscience and Eternity and The Absolute and Being and Intelligence, all in the same 30 minutes. That is not going to happen. You would be lucky if you realize all that in 20 Awakenings.

I view this as an endless fascination, into the curious nature of the unknown appearing to no one as being the ultimate grand illusion ever known . . This show has certainly got my attention. Even as these shows fade to nothingness, I remain ever present, just waiting for the next performance. 🎭

I've had some awakenings at this point, the most major of which involves Love and Goodness. At one level, these two seems almost completely inseperable, completely identical and the same; but on the other, I have had experiences of this universal force, Nothingness, that just says this pure; "I love you", and nothing else. At another level, I've experienced the universe as almost an abstract form of formless Goodness without opposite. Sometimes the two seem identical - Love IS Goodness and Goodness IS Love - but if im not deluding myself, it seems they can also be experienced as kind of seperate phenomena? out of curoisity, what are your opinions / experiences on this?

The cosmos is a heavy sleeper. Before there was time, there was only the One. It was infinite, formless, and entirely alone. In its absolute completeness, there was no sound to hear, no light to see, and no other mind to speak to. Absolute perfection, it turned out, was indistinguishable from absolute nothingness. To escape the crushing weight of eternity, the One chose to forget itself. It closed its eyes and fell into a deep, deliberate slumber. The dream began with a violent, radiant explosion—a Big Bang of light, dust, and potential. The One fragmented its infinite consciousness into countless tiny, mortal pieces. It became the swirling nebulae, the burning cores of newborn stars, the cool crust of emerging planets, and eventually, the fragile spark of biological life. To make the dream real, the One built rules into the fabric of the illusion: The Rule of Time: To create a beginning, a middle, and an ending. The Rule of Space: To separate things so they could look across the void at one another. The Rule of Amnesia: The most vital rule of all. Every fragment must completely forget its divine origin. Now, the Creator lives as the creation. It is the wolf hunting in the snow, and it is the deer running for its life. It is the tyrant on a throne of gold, and it is the beggar starving in the street. When you look into the eyes of a stranger, or a bird, or your own reflection in a mirror, you are looking at the Godhead, wearing a mask, utterly convinced of its own mortality. Sometimes, the dream grows terrifying. The fragments experience real pain, profound grief, and terrifying isolation. They cry out to the heavens, begging for a creator to save them, never realizing they are praying to themselves. They build religions, philosophies, and sciences, all driven by a haunting, subconscious itch—the vague, phantom memory that they are far more than what they seem. Every now and then, a fragment comes close to waking up. A meditator on a mountaintop, an artist lost in inspiration, or a person looking up at the night sky feels a sudden, dizzying wave of unity. For a split second, the illusion cracks. They realize they aren't a drop of water trying to survive the ocean; they are the entire ocean contained within a single drop. But the dream is sticky, and the amnesia is strong. The mind snaps back in place, the ego reattaches itself, and the Creator wanders on, beautifully and tragically lost inside its own magnificent masterpiece.

I first discovered this at 6-7 years old looking up at the stars at night with a friend. It's the thinking mind (or ego identification) coming online and pondering its place in eternity. So two important things: it's your thinking mind, and it's about eternity, not death per se. It's not actually that you fear nothingness in eternity, it's that you fear the unlimited groundlessness of eternity. But it's the thinking mind/ego that fears it. And it fears it because it thinks "what should I do?", "how can I do?", "where is my choice?", "what if I don't want?", "what if I want grounding?", "what if I want safety?", "what if I want 'reality'?". But if you can instead identify as God, you will be an infinite being creating everything it wants for eternity. If you can actually identify with that, isn't that wonderful? Perhaps from the perspective of the thinking mind/ego, probably not, but from the perspective of God, it's everything you could ever want.

It has been some time since I last did psychedelics, but lately I have watched some YouTube videos and read some books about solipsism. So I have been pondering a bit about what it all means. 1. When it comes to solipsism, do I understand this correctly that In this moment, while I am writing this text and I am conscious and aware of my sensory experience and existence itself, my experience is the only thing that exists? Is my experience the only thing that actually exists in this particular moment? And since God is infinite, is it that the experience that "I" am having right now contains everything that could ever be, even though it seems finite from my perspective? Because if the experience wasnt infinite and didnt contain everything, god would be limited. And because of this, there could not be any other experiences happening at this exact moment when I am having this conscious experience and perspective, because that would imply that there is something beyond God, who is limitless? And the opposite: if we are all the same god, then when you are reading this text inside your subjective awareness, that mean that your experience is now the only experience playing out, while "mine" perspecitve is no longer happening, and I only exist as part of your experience and imagination? 2. If God is unlimited, is it possible for God to reincarnate from nothingness into a separate form in other ways than through a "physical reality" like ours? For example, could God reincarnate as a spiritual being in a "universe" without any physical laws, simply existing in some kind of ether? Could reincarnation happen in places where there arent any physical dimensions, but where there are still phenomena? Could God reincarnate in ways that we are not even capable of imagining from because of our limited form within our reality? 3. What could happen when we begin integrating electronics into our brains and potentially become able to connect ourselves directly to one another? Would it be possible to merge separate conscious experiences into one experience, and in some sense experience God from multiple peoples perspectives at the same time? Could we also create new kinds of new electronic sensors in our bodies, giving us access to forms of sensory input beyond the senses we currently have? Could it be possible to create sensory and in any way make it possible to interact with other and "new" phenomena like maybe dark matter. That we could change the way we interact with the reality we are in right now?

I think most people have this idea of death as floating in infinite black space of nothingness. It's crazy when you realize we are already floating in an infinite space of nothingness, just hallucinating a reality there
