Aaaaaahhhh, much ado about nothing.

YOUR PUNCHES! LEAVE YOUR PUNCHES HERE!

[arlin]

Do non duality teachers like jim newman and tony parsons and leo gura talk about different things?
Im asking if talk about different things or the same thing expressed in different ways.

[Museful]

Everything is the same thing expressed in (an infinity of) different ways.

So, yes!

No you misunderstood. I was asking if all those teachers had actually different views on of nonduality

Who knows, maybe there are two nondualities 

(btw I'm sure everyone has a different "view" on it, but no view is "it")

By discovering your own rather than picking someone else's.

@arlin Put your hand up in front of your face. Now wave..... that is God waving at you.

It would be cool if they set up this nothing conference, sold all these tickets, and then on the day of, there was just nothing. No speakers, no videos, no news updates. Just a total blank.

[Carl-Richard]

Looks like a bunch of nothing tbh

And you couldn't even take them to court for false advertising... the judge would probably say what did you think was going to happen ?

God is a loaded word here because it implies so many things. If you talk to the guys on the conference they will tell you no such thing exists yet you talk to me like they do.

That's why i asked about are those the same views or different views of non duality yes or no

If everybody has their own, discovering my own that is different would just lead to the fact that everybody decideds like he wants so everything is fucked.

Rather than discovering an objective ultimate truth. Are those the same views or different views?

Not sure what more there is to say about it. There can be only one truth, but you can't reduce it to any particular view. And yet views is all we have "down here". Everyone doesn't just have a different view, they ARE a different view, and so are you. There's just no way around that. Truth is absolute, views are relative.

And there's the finger and the moon thing. The only way to find out who is pointing to the same moon and who isn't, is by looking for the actual moon yourself. But what you can be sure of right now that no two fingers are the same. They can't be, they don't need to be, and they're not all that interesting.

Ironically, I'm sure everyone will be talking about their fingers on that nothing conference. Maybe you should go and ask them about it. Nobody can speak for them but them.

[arlin]

@Johnny5 But then how can i be sure that what i believe is right and im not just deluding myself?

 

i guess it's silly question. I Guess im just tired of those things that's all.

I'd take that as a good sign  ? 

[arlin]

@Johnny5 Why? What do you believe in?

[Johnny5]

Just now, arlin said:

@Johnny5 Why?

Because the only satisfaction you'll find in this, is when you stop trying to adopt other people's views and finally return back to yourself. Self-realization is never "out there"

Way too much still...
