Became Aware of The Block of Reality

[SoonHei]

Yesterday during a medi-sit, I became aware of what the NOW is - I still think I am no-where near, but it was more clear and direct than any previous understanding of mine.

 

You know how it is said that whenever you talk about IT or name IT or do anything to try to describe IT, you end up missing IT and whatever you say/do/talk about is then ultimately not IT

I understood why this was - the way I saw thru this was imagining that a frame of the NOW could be stilled/paused as if it were a video being played

 

now that paused still "frame" of reality (infinite dimensional frame) is the totality of your experience which occurs in the NOW

that paused-frame of experience is WHAT we call ONENESS - for simply relay: it consists of all of your visual+audio+sensory+thoughts+smell field in that ONE single instant of experience

 

and that's all there is to REALITY. and infinite series of these infinite dimensional frames, "flowing" at a certain "rate" (time) 

it's like a border-less block which can be STILLED moment to moment

when we talk about it, or point to something, or imagine something, we are limiting what reality/oneness is to a PART when it's the WHOLE

 

talking about reality which brings in the non-duality is like if someone were to point at their feet-only and say this is what their body is - when in-fact their whole body is what they are - loose example but the ones who know will get it.

it's like this image below , the mother/son,sky,clouds,grass,all-else in the picture are mere distinctions - all of IT together is ONE image. IT'S ONE!

also

Emboss Effects I feel can be used to demonstrate the make-up of reality in a way

 

if only i knew how to do advanced animation, i could show how reality works (structurally) of course the TRUTH is much deeper than it

 

but the one-ness can be captured with this animation/idea i have in my head, 

 

one has to picture that they are meta- to that animation to understand how reality works

 

emboss kinda shows the connectedness/3d effect which can be used to point that it's all one object - all of what appears in the video is a SINGLE AWARE BODY with the content within it also self-aware and so on as you keep going in deeper and deeper but ultimately, the entire video image is a single self-aware object and that's what reality is, the whole is a BODY and we are the body-parts (all self-aware)

 

[ajasatya]

@SoonHei what performs self-inquiry and why?

[Nahm]

@SoonHei Excellent. The embossing analogy is delightful, leveling it all to one unified ‘substance’, so to speak. Great post.

[SoonHei]

@ajasatya it's the phenomena . "nobody" really is performing the inquiry IN REALITY

 

however, I did also this understanding yesterday. that even so, majority of the world (myself included) is still in the ego-life . while it is all an illusion. it still is an experience of life. there is no me, i am a thought, an idea. but while i do not see thru the illusion, i must live it, enjoy it

 

i feel that many religious practices , though may not lead to the ultimate freedom / enlightenment - offer a way to live the ego life in a self-less manner, to keep you trouble free, love thy neighbor, respect, be kind etc

upon death, the one with a well organized peaceful mind will transcend to the next level of illusion

 

I am a strong believer in this. that a "soul" living thru a current body-mind can go to a "heaven" (phenomenal heaven) 

the real heaven is of-course leaving the illusion and seeing that there is nobody there

but while in it, one can go good deeds and go to "heaven"

and what is "heaven" ? whatever your mind thinks it to be

 

one thing i seldom see talked about is . mind is so powerful. whatever your definition of heaven/hell is, you will be the judge of yourself on judgement day and if there are hidden deep wrong doings, you will have to fight thru that in a DMT-esq experience and once out of it, depending on your religious background/beliefs you will enter that next realm of whatever it is for you. (all within the illusion of reality - another version of the hallucination vs the one we are in right now)

 

 

@Nahm thank you! I have posted something earlier as well with respect to the nature / structure of reality and you, as well as others and also Leo too agreed that it was a correct analogy (again, i know that the actual truth cannot be imagined or explained via a metaphor/analogy) but the structure of reality can be explained .

again, if only i knew animation or could find something already on the internet somewhere (have failed thus far)

 

also VR headsets do a great job of showing what reality is

all of the contents as you look around the VR headset is what reality is right now- VR just allows you to see it in a META-to-IT way

as you are behind the headset peering into another reality inside the VR

can you define the limit between soul and matter? what is the soul made of? what's matter made of?

when a leaf falls from a tree and starts to deteriorate, can you tell EXACTLY when it's no longer a leaf?

[SoonHei]

@ajasatya i agree with you. i am just explaining the structure of reality itself

 

all of what you are saying i get.

for example, if i lose a finger, am i still me? when do i stop becoming Me?

 

 

and this picture here is a rough version of what reality is

the small green boxes are ego/body-minds . the big red border around the entire room is THE ABSOLUTE - the totality of it all. THAT IS THE GREAT BODY, and all of what is "inside" it, are distinctions of it, only seen from the inner level, from the greater level outside, it is all one-self-aware-room (room in this example of the picture). from the point of view of the RED ONE Object, all those egos do not exist, it IS, what it IS, the whole of it.

also, this is a paused/stilled moment of NOW within the absolute. the reality again is an infinte holder of NOW-frames and thats why this anaolgoy at best is about a single moment of NOW of the absolute.

now for reality, take this room and all its sides and extend eaach border to infinty - aka no borders. that's what the "structure" of reality is, without bounds, self aware, ONE BODY TOTALTY / Absolute

It’d be sweet to invent ‘emboss goggles’ you could wear outside.

@SoonHei All time is within a single moment of stillness.

[SoonHei]

@cetus56 that seems like it could be looked at this way

there are infinte possiblities at each moment of stillness

 

time = the change of the previous moment of stillness to the next

but all possiblities are contained as probalitiies at each moment

 

something having a chance of 0.00000000000000000000000000000000001 % can still occur 

there is no 0 probability 

[cetus]

@SoonHei I view reality as being like a book. All the information is at one single location of stillness. But the book can also be picked up and read page by page so it would than take on the addition of time/duration/experiance. It's the only way the mind can know the book. The mind warps reality which is a singularity and it smeers it out over time. That's why infinity escapes the mind. Infinity is not in time.

[SoonHei]

@cetus56 yup. i love that analogy

i also like adding a layer on that to understand how ALL can be understood/known as people describe in their 5MeO/DMT/Ayshyscha/LSD trips

the layer being that of the author of the book

GOD is the Author of the book, the author knows the whole story in/out

the reader (mind) does not and has to go page by page

but the author knows past/present/future of the "book"

 

reality is a infinite-paged book with no beginning and no end

and there is no separate author of this book as we have in our world

GOD IS the infinite-paged book so to speak

Yea, most do say the "book" comes rushing at them faster than light. Did you ever hear the expression "I thought I was going to die and my whole life passed before me in an instant"

I can definitely remember dreams where it was exactly like that.

Time was more something I was using to experience things than something inherently real.

I could jump at any timeline I wanted but decided to stay "here" to experience this particular experience.

And there was no division between anything,

And it was beautiful,

@Shin The dream becomes reality and reality becomes the dream. 

What changes is not real. What is real does not change.

I kind of intuit that already, but I could't resist to post a meme ?

The only difference I see between a dream and "this", is that "this" feels longer and I strongly identify with a determined character.

Outside of that I don't see a difference.

@Shin I couldn't help but to add a little something to it.

 Nothing has gone to waist.

oh yes! i use that anaology all the time

the WHOLE LIFE DOES infact pass thru their eyes in an instant

it is like how we may dream and the dream time lasted a month vs you only slept for 6 hours

 

same thing here except it's the entire life occuring in an instant

 

THere is no such thing as a quick death

the gunshot to the head, when it strikes  would lead that microsecond real world experinece to be experineced as eternity or whatever the flow of thought/experieince becomes at that point

@SoonHei If you haven't seen it yet be sure to check out the movie Interstellar. It's a good one.
