Not only there is no mind, there is no reality "out there".

[Pouya]

I've been stuck with this idea of within and without for years, but this realization finally popped this thought bubble.

"Nothing is hidden. Nothing is out there"

There are no thoughts "behind the eyes", there is no mind and there are no beliefs and no ideas there. There is only pure being, which I can call consciousness. I just observe what is beyond the "perceptual field".

When you look at a lamp, you see its being, as a lamp. Isness being a lamp. When you turn around and stop seeing the lamp, the lamp becomes infinite possibility. Infinite being. The moment you turn back and see it again, the lamp literally gets created in the moment, in th form of a lamp. It's still infinite. It's still isness.

This realization not only fucked with my materialism and realism, it destroyed the notion of introvert and extrovert.

All of the "thoughts" about being introvert and extrovert are imaginary. My beliefs are mere imagination. Ideas literally don't exist. I just instantly make em up from nothing. I was never an imagiry thing called introvert or extrovert.

So reality for me is what is. Nothing more and less. It both within and without, and neither of them, and even beyond them.

So the question remains; where am I? Am I within? Am I without? Both and neither of them?

Why does the question still remain? It looks like you got it.

@Gili Trawangan  it's too vague and blurry for me.

@Pouya Wait how you know there is no reality out there? If someone else is experiencing it isn't that shit there?

[Pouya]

@AlphaAbundance There is the assumption that others experience reality and therefore, we got an objective world with subjective experiences within it.

Wanna see what's "out there"? 

Forget everything and become ACTUAL and actually see what is this experience. That thing is Absolutely True, but when you describe it, it blends in with duality and creates paradoxes

There is also the assumption that others don't exist and don't experience reality.

Its just  consciousness.  That "someone else" is just a section of the One Mind.

There's no physical world "behind the scenes" it's just isness or Being.  @Pouyanailed it.

@Shaun yep that's the problem, reality/Truth connot be grasbed by assumptions. It's always beyond.
