Selfishness

[Jakey]

Lets assume that everything is God, which means that you are God, you are in some way everything right? By 'you' I mean that one that has no boundary between itself and everything around you. So when you're "God" no matter what you do it will always be what you desire. There is only one which means you can only be selfish, even if you don't want to feel selfish that's still selfishness because you want that.

There's a general idea that the devil is selfish.. so you could say that God is selfish, no? How would something selfish become not selfish without it being selfish? Is that even possible? I can see how it could be possible but that would require creating a separation from the everything.

I'd like to know your perspectives on this.

#1-There is no man in heaven sitting on a throne with a dragon hiding in a pit in the earth.

#2- non-duality by today's understanding of it is wrong you are not THE all Creator that created this reality that we all "the real world " but you are YOUR god and the creator of YOUR reality. 

#3- every question a person can and will ever have can be answered by just observing life right now in the moment and observing the eco of life.

What you're noticing with your line of questioning is the collapse of the selfish/selfless duality.

You should expect all such dualities to breakdown at the edges when you question them deeply enough.

God is the Absolute Unity for all dualities.

You cannot say that God is X because God is also not X, both, and neither.

Absolute Infinity is unqualifiable. Anything you say about it is always finite, partial, limited, and in a sense, misleading. Absolute Infinity cannot be fully explicated in finite form. Infinity is by its very nature implicit. It cannot be fully unfolded (because it goes on forever).

This is what happen when a mosquito try to think of the "mind" of God. 

Assumption is so low. Do not assume.

There is no infinity. And you can drop that made up woo you said about infinity. Infinity REQUIRES numbers. Without numbers there is NO infinity at all. Even a infinity fractal set will have its first number, its first fractal, following others, 1,2,3,4,5.....thus "infinitely" but the numbers are finite all the way....

Until it's proven the numbers has a way of diminish therefore they won't go to infinity as there is no such thing as infinity.

User @daramantus has been banned for spreading ideology, spreading misinformation, and clearly not being here to learn with an open mind.

People who clearly speak of things they have no understanding of as if they do, will be banned from this forum. So just keep that in mind. This is not a place where ignorant opinions can be aired with impunity.

If you're going to speak about infinity or God, first understand what you are talking about. It's very clear when someone speaks of these things without any direct experience of them.

I feel like it bears repeating that ...

That said, @Jakey , reality is self-similar at the nano, micro, meso, macro, and cosmic scales, infinitely in both/all directions. God is alone as it encompasses all that is (and all that isn't). In a similar way, life is an inherently first-person phenomenon, you are the only one who is you! (or at least it seems that way in everyday life).
