Benefits of God realization...

[VeganAwake]

What are the benefits in believing / becoming directly aware that I am God?

You can also list the benefits of just believing in god or not believing in god.

 

Bump...

PROS

___________________

Immortality and much less fear of physical death 

Love

Peace

Taking the reigns of your life

life becomes profound where it used to be mundane and therefore is almost impossible to be bored 

 supernatural powers(sometimes)

——————————————

CONS

________________________

Hard to fit in with society 

Surrounded by people who are still caught up in the dream

All your materialist friends thinking you’re deluded and trying to argue with you about it

completely alone (literally... being depressed about this is optional)

Can’t find enjoyment in many of the things you used to or the things all your other friends do 

 

There’s probably more of both that I couldn’t think of off the top of my head at the moment

@The Lucid Dreamer Thanks for sharing.... there's definitely a resonation with a lot of those.

Embodiment of unconditional love is so powerful..

One big benefit I know Leo's big on.. philosophy becomes clearer, more open mindedness and less self bias

@DreamScape oooh yeah, that’s a good one! So true

@The Lucid Dreamer I wrote a whole post about your point on not enjoying things but my WiFi crashed so I guess it was meant to be shorter!

I basically went through a similar thing of not enjoying things, but then the motivation and joy from them evolves. 

No longer looking for peace and happiness in objects, relationships activities etc as I am already absolutely happy and at peace regardless of what happens. 

Then, life is seen as a means to express this understanding, this happiness, this joy, this love, this fun in ALL areas of life! 

Life is then a celebration of this happiness and we can express that however we see fit, but no matter what happens we are always completely happy, at peace, and fulfilled. This is the absolute freedom of absolute!

Whether it's taking up a sport, deepening your relationships, or going in a cave and meditating, ALL is done as an expression and celebration of this understanding and life is simply to be enjoyed and embraced as ALL is the Divine, All is God, ALL is The Self. 

Paradoxically, as we no longer put demands on things to make us happy, it allows us to enjoy life even more, as no matter the outcome we are completely happy already, so it is like complete freedom that allows us to simply celebrate this understanding however we see fit  

I hope you manage to find activities and interests that allow you to do this, it could be anything! 

But, the main difference is, all of it comes from Love.

The benefit of god realisation is that there is no benefit. 

[Inliytened1]

No dualistic explanation can do it justice.

Bro your on this forum theorizing way too much. Put in work

[tedens]

In collective consciousness, even more love and the resulting compassion for duality.

It’s, ironically, for everyone else’s benefit.

@tedens As did I answer.  Not much irony here.

You stop blaming everyone and the world for all your problems. You also judge less and forgive more. Less suffering within you, and more love and happiness.
