After all, I am the only one here, right? The very mentioning of solipsism is dangerous, because even if you have realized Truth the ego is still operating in you. An ego with the delusion that he is God is dangerous. And I'm afraid that's what it was beginning to sound like around here and that's what led me to write the post to begin with.

Posted June 13, 2019 @Gili Trawangan ok i see. Yes the ego can delude itself. But when you actually become conscious of Oneness the ego will be dead and you will be awakening to yourself as God. God enlightening itself. That is Absolute and not relative. The rebirth of the ego is then able to see through it's own illusion, therein transcending itself as the ego. Wisdom. Truth. Love.

Posted June 13, 2019 (edited) @Gili Trawangan From the results. I mean that it's nice to try to make things better, no problem with that. But does anyone really have control over the situation? I mean you can only have a little bit of influence over other people's thinking. But unless you are the media or some very influential part of it, then I think it's hard and even a waste of time and energy to think about things that are out of your hands. I wouldn't personally invest my emotions, time, energy, thinking, etc... on such matters unless I know I can make a difference because I have more important and more relevant-to-my-life things to do and care about. @Inliytened1 One of the best things about dropping morality is that it automatically increases morality ??

Posted June 13, 2019 (edited) @Gili Trawangan I don't believe in a physical objective reality but that doesn't necessarily mean that solipsism is true even if we are all one. I know that right now I am consciously sitting here reading your sentences and writing my response and I could never ever prove it to you.

What people don't generally understand is the constructive nature of the mind. Reality is not a given. It is constructed by you. People do not like to take responsibility for being The Creator.

It is not a walk in the park to realize God. So let's not pretend it is. You are the one being dishonest with yourself Leo... stating / assuming another one hasn't seen the depth of it, not even close.

Posted June 14, 2019 (edited) @Umar_uk you are God right now. So tell us Umar - what have you revealed to yourself during your awakening to yourself? Because no, God just isn't God. When you as the ego die and become God, you will be become conscious of the Absolute, and the Absolutes of the Absolute. So please tell is what has been revealed to you upon rebirth.

Posted June 14, 2019 (edited) @DrewNows More like the form of an infinite strange loop, where facet of the strange loop expands to infinity. This infinite strange loop is operating everything you see today, but it has visible mechanisms and features which can only be seen with consciousness work. So what Leo is trying to say is enlightened beings only see a portion of this infinite strange loop, before they decide to merge with nothing. So nothing is inside the infinite strange loop (non -duality), the infinite outcomes are not part of the internal structure of the infinite strange loop- they're more like a by product of the fact that god is infinite (MAYA). So what leo is saying is yes the highest teaching is that you are god, whether that says your nothing. He is agreeing because nothing is what your awareness absorbs into to become total non dual (but this is totally non-dual from one portion of the strange loop) and thats why they're getting their misconcepts. Its viable because if you were god, you would not subject your people to tourture and condem for life. So essentially current day enlightenment is an escape to merge into god and give up all suffering, its an escape route in the infinite strange loop But what leo is saying the totality of god is actualising the entire strange loop and that is done through actualising all multi-lateral facets. And this is what god is eventually working up to. Because you are god. So putting your authority power AS GOD into figures of authority IS THE REALITY you are creating for yourself. You can be the only one to restrict yourself. And this is what he has discovered through his own consciusness work , because theres no way one could possible theorise all this. (DISCLAIMER: UNLESS YOUR NAME IS AAKASH AND YOU HAVE SIMULATED THE WHOLE OF REALITY JOKE ) and this basically what leo is trying to say is that the biggest misconception god currently face is the BELIEF that the totality of god is nothingness or nirvana so he doesn't disagree with non-dual teaching or call them false, and he has supposedly cross referenced it against every source of non dual teaching he could find in history (most teachers) and he's simply claiming himself now that there is more to god. And the arrival of omniscience consciousness is what has lead him further than any master before him. EDIT: and why do i know this and you don't? because you underestimate the power of reading books that are nothing to do with non-duality. Leo had to read 10000 books to get this insight and thats why i said i can't match him in smartness, he's simple too far ahead. Notice: i didn't say he's smarter than me. I'm smartest person alive, but this is my only delusion, that's for another day lol. if i read the same 10000 books , i'd probably come up with the same exact notion. I did it through simulating futures and that's how i stumbled upon the potential of this being the case. BUT LEO'S is drenched in proof and direct experience through his consciousness. OBSERVATION IS KING. hence the reason i shall be exitting at nothingness because i don't have bother in me to read 10000 books and thats why i say nobody will reach where leo is at for the next 300 years. Because they pick and choose which books they want to read off his list. NO you have to read all of them to connect the dots between DUALITY and NON DUALITY to understand the possibilities of the INFINITE STRANGE LOOP. SO NO BUDDAH DID NOT READ 10000 BOOKS AND NEITHER DID ANY OTHER ENLIGHTENED BEINGS, the next one down from leo is probably winter solider since he's a law graduate, then seratonin for book count number. but its not comparison on scale by the VOLUME of books LEO'S read and the DIVERSITY. and this is the single difference in others understanding of god and leo's. WHY? BECAUSE GOD LEFT THE INFORMATION IN THE BOOKS FOR SOMEONE TO FIND IT AND LEAD TO THIS EXACT CONCLUSION TOTAL SOLIPSISM. ALSO why do i know this: Because i integrated leo's teachings entirely conceptually for my simulation and most in actuality. Some is concept like what i've said above. Leo's is the only teacher i resonate with because i like understand how reality works exactly. So why others were listening to non dual teachings, i was listening to more densly focused teachings which were non dual up until this point. NOT saying i'm a fanboy, don't get it wrong, i see the solipsism of god. So to me, he's just me. I just understand what he's trying to say. Because i too am skeptical about everything authority figures say. Edit 2: the thing is that people don't get is a) there is only exsistence b) there is only TRUTH , so what this means is there is nothing in the world that is falsehood. Meaning everything is at perfect as it needs to be, by design. By the one who created the infinite strange loop. YOU as TRUEST NATURE/ TRUE SOLISPSIM, not YOU as NON DUAL BEING/ NOTHINGNESS edit 3: GOD is all around, you are inside god as god , so you have to look at nature and everything to work out how all of this is made. How you as god actualised "how you made reality" = omniscience and he's got multiple infinite facets AND he's integrated THE COLLAPSE OF HIS DUALITIES. You don't understand, what ever he's experiencing must be NUTS and incredibly painful but since he loves reality so much. SUCH must be the HERO'S journey gate guardian.

Posted June 14, 2019 (edited) @Leo Gura Thank you for the nice responses. Leo, when are you going to invite us to your seminar? Are we going to meet you this year? Have you decided to postpone with seminars? I am so depressed lately, I do not see any reason to keep going. The more I think about the possibility of being infinite, the more depressed I become. I wish from all my heart I meet you and other people who follow this pursuit. Sometimes, it is unbearable and feels so lonely. Would be nice to attain your convention for some "fresh air" and positive energy and offset. I understand that my mental state is temporary, but I wish I can get out of it as soon as I can. What book would you recommend to read or what practices should I do? I want to be happy again. I used to be happy when did something meaningful or hobby, now nothing excites me anymore, even traveling. Thank you so much, Lots of hugs.
