Posted November 30, 2020 One of Leo's best videos. Really starting to put everything together now for those who have followed for years. I did have a few questions after going through it: - If this moment is perfect, why can I still feel hunger, pain, etc? Of course I can ignore those things and stay in the present moment. But the idea is that if I do that for long enough, I will die. Even if death is an illusion, do I really want to push it and test that? - If no other being exists, what are the people I can see around me? If I'm in a room alone they don't exist, but what about when they are in front of me saying and doing stuff? Are they just NPCs generated by my own imagination? Then is there nothing negative about killing or raping other people, except for the legal system my imagination has also created? Why should I show love and compassion for anything instead of just using it as a tool for my amusement? The only way I can see a reason to act moral under this paradigm is taking on beliefs like karma, or that as God I'll live through those people's consciousness bubble in the future so I should make things as easy for my alternate self as possible. I shouldn't beat my wife because one day I'll be the wife. But that's just another belief. Yes, Everyone on the Internet Is a Loser. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

In order for you to experience form - which is finite - you must feel it in its entirety. You must become finite. Otherwise you could not experience or be finite Next. You must become conscious of Absolute Infinity because Absolute Inifnity is Absolute Goodness. The bottom line is you have to realize that you are yourself. And therefore you are Good because of yourself. Because of Infinity. There is no reason why you are Good. There is no reason because all reasons are relative. You are Good because of Yourself. Wisdom. Truth. Love. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

At least you imagine you would Quote - If no other being exists, what are the people I can see around me?

Quote Then is there nothing negative about killing or raping other people, except for the legal system my imagination has also created?

If you choose to abuse an NPC, that reveals your genuine level of consciousness. See video: What Is Goodness? Quote The only way I can see a reason to act moral under this paradigm is taking on beliefs like karma There is absolutely no reason to act moral. You are God. You are Truth. You are Love.

Posted November 30, 2020 @SirVladimir Going deep into this video, I'll post back results. Wish me luck fam. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted November 30, 2020 My results: 2 seconds of "nothingness" in total (not God) and merging with the perception of the hand a few times. Been really really grounded. However no eternity, no love, no reality is a dream, no illusion, no me creating reality, no concept shattered etc. I usually dismiss the nothingness really fast, because I had none of the above but I believe this was the nothingness very shortly. (defined by the thinning out of reality and no-self.) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

So what happened if you came close to one? Would he bite you? And if not, how did the croc get his food? And how did Adam keep his beard so trim? Did God give him scissors? Guys, it's a metaphor.

Posted November 30, 2020 (edited) @Leo Gura I really like these videos where you guide us through an exercise. However I feel like you try to explicate things too much. You just give out the answers and there isn’t enough space for us to discover something on our own. For example, I don’t think it helps anyone to just tell them straight up that “you don’t exist”. They have to be guided to that realization slowly. It can’t be explicated like that. Hope you get my point. A lot of people like your style, though! These are just my two cents Edited November 30, 2020 by blankisomeone Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted November 30, 2020 @blankisomeone Then go follow a Zen teacher who will tell you nothing, as you want. My style is deliberately not Zen. You are God. You are Truth. You are Love. You are Infinity. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Oh you’re doing it deliberately. I just feel like it’s easier for a teaching to be turned into ideologies when the answers are just delivered on a silver platter. I don’t know, it’s just something I’ve been thinking about Edit: but then again, Jesus’ teachings were very zen and still turned into ideologies.?
