@Leo Gura I have one question -- How to find peace amidst emotional suffering ?

Regarding this I have noticed that accepting it reduces the amount of suffering. Also when I took a perspective regarding the inevitable nature of suffering I noticed myself smiling once while suffering this morning.

And am unrelated question --According to you which spiral stage does Martin Seligman belongs ?

You can't control suffering directly.

The only solution besides living properly is to observe it mindfully and let go trying to stop it.

Drop the fantasy that you will become immune to feeling pain. Pain comes and you just feel it.

I don't know him enough to say.

@Leo Gura But what about acceptance of suffering ? I noticed many times that when I accept it I begin to smile no matter how much I am in emotional pain. I used to have a fantasy that positive psychology will cure my pain but as soon as I discovered acceptance of suffering via Acceptance and commitment therapy-- I began to engage with pain 

How to overcome the challenge of people disrespecting you and being haunted by the past ?

Can I groc the love paradigm intellectually and theoretically without direct experience? Because I’m having a hard time understanding it

How is this post just me acting out my ego in the usual ways? Is this post just me venting and justifying my selfishness? Are the things you are posting in alignment with principles of higher consciousness and higher stages of ego development? Are you acting in a mature or immature way? Are you being selfish or selfless in your communication? Are you acting like a monkey or like a God-like being?

I'd say its practically impossible. Its really too radical to fit into the workings of a intellectual mind. But with direct experience it is mind blowing, and super easy to see. But yeah, super state depended.

1) Identifying with something totally removing division is the highest form of love.

But also once unified the division is also love so this is why God divides itself.

From the perspective of a divided person, unity is the highest from of love but from the perspective of unity, Division is love?

The only reason we would have division is because it is also love.

2) unless what is going on is that we are infinitely divided, and therefore infinitely unifying higher and higher and higher forever. This whole thing is us unifying ourselves infinitely.

division is permanent even death is not the solution, there is infinite levels of the division? And we are endlessly reuniting what are divided parts, which is infinite love?

@integral The division between Unity and division will also disappear. The Unity will become so profound that Unity and division will become identical. The finite will become the infinite. The infinite will become the finite.

A=A
A=B
B=A
A=A

Everything: ONE

I thought you told the kangaroo story before, but maybe it was someone else.

Apparently that story is fake, which is yet another recontextualization.

Gangurru means a specific species of kangaroo in the north, and then the Europeans applied that to all kangaroos.

Hegel quote:

Quote

Self-consciousness recognizes its positive relation as its negative, and its negative as its positive; or, in other words, recognizes these opposite activities as the same, i.e. it recognizes pure Thought or Being as self-identity, and this again as separation.

—G. W. F. Hegel

Hegel understood God profoundly. More than academics do. Hegel understood God we deeply that I understand Hegel only because I know God as deeply as I do.

Today's academics do not have enough intelligence to understand what Hegel understood.

How do you think Hegel did this? Do you think he changed his state through meditation? Not sure if that was even a thing back then where he lived.
You can't just contemplate your way into this, maybe he got it spontaneously by luck like that girl from the book "Collision with the Infinite"🤔

1) Most people who have deep understanding of God had help from the right genetics.

2) Hegel was enrolled in religious training. He was basically a quasi mystic. He did it through Christianity from what I gather. Hardcore serious Christians can do such things, especially with the right genetic foundation.

Don't forget, there's also a rich history of theology. You can learn serious truth from theology if you pick the right sources. I bet Hegel studied serious Christian theology.

It's like you're asking, Why did Newton discover calculus or Einstien E=mc2? Obviously they were freakishly intelligent, unique minds.
