Yes.  Look death in the eye in any way and God becomes pretty obvious.   Conceptualizing God makes God much more obscure.   The Truth is before your very eyes - there isn't a need to grasp it with the egoic mind.

You're not looking death in the eye ffs, it's a 40h fast 🤣🤣🤣

You still feel like death after not eating and drinking that long - no?  You can only survive 100 hours without water.  So you are starting to get  where you are dying.  You can probably have some serious awakenings by then- especially if you are mediating.

Wisdom.  Truth.  Love.

The key is realizing what you refer to as the conscious subject is blank. It has no detectable qualia/quality. It is completely empty. And yet.....it has a presence to it. This presence is referred to as the I AM. The I AM, always....is AM, or appearing. It's an eternal appearance, that is infinitely intelligent, infinitely accepting, infinitely caring, but is not detectable within the senses. 

This same presence is a mind, an invisible mind that dreams up everything as an appearance. The mind projects everything onto the screen of its blank appearance, and that projection is MADE OF, the same blankness. Because it is made of the same blankness, but it is given qualia it completely hides this blankness in plain sight. It as a result obscures/hides its true nature as a blank, but at the same time it also reveals it in plain sight.

How does it reveal it? By the existence of change. The transitory nature of everything, the fact that change exists at all, is proof that all objects are an illusion, all appearance is an illusion because none of these objects are actually stable. They are all constantly changing appearance, because they are not one appearance individually, but actually infinite appearance. As such, they must change because that is it's true nature. But even though they are not one individually, they are one collectively because they really are a blank.

So the key is to recognize that everything is phasing in and out of appearance at infinite speeds, infinite frames per second, which makes it direct. There is no lag in its change, it all happens instantaneously at different rates of directness. But within all this change, the one constant presence is always there. Hidden within appearance as appearance, but visible as the change of every moment. 

To realize all is blank, is the birth of knowledge and wisdom.

To realize everything is ONE is the knowledge and wisdom of love.

To realize lack of appearance is completely identical to appearance is the fusion of knowledge, wisdom, and love.

TLDR: If you close your eyes and think back on a childhood memory. That memory is an appearance within your one mind. Everything that you experience within that memory is a representation, expression, and is made up of/essence of your mind. This reveals that your mind is a blank, that can dream up/create anything within it. 

As a result all barriers and distinctions are completely arbitrary, fabricated. The ONE truth, is your ONE MIND.

You are a selfless LACK OF APPEARANCE, that CONSTRUCTS AN APPEARANCE. But that appearance can disappear and reappear and we call that change, we call it time, we call it space, we call it distance, we call distinctness, we call it other. But notice...this appearance, is a SELF. A SELF IS A CONSTRUCTION!!! 

So if you want to know the TRUTH OF THE CONSTRUCTION. Just deconstruct the construction!!!! No point in playing these mind games!!! No point in creating needless complexity!!! The truth of what you are is a BLANK!!!! A selfless awareness....then that means there is NO OTHER, and everything you have ever perceived was JUST AN APPEARANCE, A MIRAGE, AN ILLUSION, IMAGINARY. 

Everything that appears....appears out of a lack of appearance/void/no-thing, non-sense (can't be sensed because there is nothing to sense). That is what you are, and what arises...is made of that. So nonexistence, arises/creates existence. And thus everything is solved.

Good one! Deep perception. I would say that impermanence, constant change, occurs due to the absence of limits. the very fact of infinity prevents stability. The only thing stable is infinity itself, and this is what we ultimately are.

enlightenment is to become literally infinite, and becoming infinite entails seeing everything apparent as false in the sense that it is just an image. See your life as a mask that the infinite wears, since given its infinity, it will always wear one, then you can put aside the mask and be the total depth that it is regardless of the form it takes, and perceive your ultimate essence, in the opening of the total bottomless abyss, the infinite, that is, you, smile. that is its essence, since it is and it's freedom is total
