Awakened mirror metaphor

8 posts in this topic

Posted (edited)

Here's a little metaphor/analogy/whatevz I came up with that I think encapsulates God/Consciousness as a strangeloop: 

Imagine yourself as standing before a mirror. The "objective" self you believe exists is actually just a reflection in this mirror, where the mirror itself symbolizes consciousness. There is no underlying physical "you"—the reflection is the only reality. The subjective experience you see in the mirror isn’t a mere image of some deeper truth; it is the entire truth. Consciousness isn’t observing a separate reality; it is creating and sustaining it. In this view, you and your reality are one and the same, both emerging from and existing within the reflection of consciousness. There’s nothing beyond this reflection to discover—this is the entirety of existence, looking back at itself in an infinite strangeloop.

Edit: I just looked up this metaphor and it seems to have been used by others too. Cool :)

Where does the middle Eastern man from 2000 years ago fit into this metaphor? Just joking. Great post

Reality is an endless loop where Mind reflects upon itself, perpetually making love with its very own Self

God-Realize, this is First Business. Know that unless I live properly, this is not possible.

There is this body, I should know the requirements of my body. This is first duty. We have obligations towards others, loved ones, family, society, etc. Without material wealth we cannot do these things, for that a professional duty.

There is Mind; mind is tricky. Its higher nature should be nurtured, then Mind becomes virtuous and Conscious. When all Duties are continuously fulfilled, then life becomes steady. In this steady life God is available; via 5-MeO-DMT, ... Living in Self-Love, Realizing I am Infinity & I am God

They say that perceived reality is an illusion, but it seems that they don't realize that whatever it is, it is infinite. Its depth is unfathomable. you can keep diving into it infinitely.

Why is Existence Looking upon itself?

Why is Mind reflecting upon itself?

We use different words to describe the samething, but there is an underlying question! Its great to realize that something is reflecting something, but How and Why?

Its Existence/Mind/Consciousness/Absolute via Experience and Expression knowing about itself I would say, we here are just One way that this is happening, in an Infinite Universe as we are living in (we know not where the Beginning is, nor where the End is) this has to be the case, we cannot be the only ones in the entirety of it all, but there is a Matrix set up, boundaries are here, Duality is here, as if no boundaries are present, then no Experience or Expression can happen hence no way for Absolute to know itself..  Can Absolute know itself in Absolute without Experience and Expression (in all the Trillions of ways just on this planet alone, never mind the entire Cosmos)?? Please if You know how share:)

@Ishanga Experience seems to be at the heart of Reality, all is mediated by it.

Experience is an Absolute.
