Where does my consciousness end and the trees consciousness begin?

68 posts in this topic

If I am standing next to a tree where does my consciousness begin and the trees consciousness end? What about the floor I am standing on? Why does it seem to be so clear cut? Is it possible to experience both the consciousness of the tree and myself?

realization means the seer becoming the seen, another word for it is love where the lover and beloved become one

It is all the same Consciousness, manifested through a multitude of forms in different states of awareness, but seamlessly One. When you look through spiritual eyes, you see the same Consciousness in everything, including trees. Our sense of the holiness, and wholeness, with trees goes back to the earliest primal gatherings in sacred groves.


Just because God loves you doesn't mean it is going to shape the cosmos to suit you. God loves you so much that it will shape you to suit the cosmos.

When a tree is seen, that is already the experience of its consciousness. The only problem is the idea that you are a human looking at a tree.


You are God. You are Truth. You are Love. You are Infinity.

But doesn't the tree have a kind of personal experience too? I can imagine a (compared to mine) alien beingness of the tree that has a distorted perception of time, no visuals, and maybe a vague sensing a of sunlight.

I can look at you as a person, but you have personal experience too right? It does not seem to be the same thing at this level.

Conscious ness is one and distinctions exist within it.
There is no "your" consciousness. Consciousness is equally yours as it is tree's.

If it can appear within consciousness, you can say it has a beginning. If it can disappear within consciousness, you can say it has an end. For things that have beginnings and ends to appear and disappear they must appear and disappear within something that has no beginning or end. That something is what you really are.

Do you have a personal experience?

I am a schizophrenic projection of your mind. You are talking to yourself.

I am you and you are me. Ta-da! ;)

I kind of get it but I really don't. I understand there is only thing experiencing something. But are the limited experience running simultaneously like in an MMO or is my condensed human experience the only one that exists (solipsism)?

Depends how conscious you are.

If you become infinitely conscious, you'll find that all those other simulations are just fragments of your own mind.

You are God. There is no one outside you and you are creating the entire thing using your intelligence.

Yeah, it's fucked up. Which is why the Truth isn't talked about much. It needs to be kept a secret for the game to run. It's how you keep yourself playing.

That's fine. I suppose it's dependent on how burning this question is for you. I expect it might be, since you responded when I was saying it to the OP. ?

Let me ask you this.. Is it 'you' who is no one outside of him or 'me'? (relative me vs you :Leo vs Akshay) Because you are saying it works like a dream where there is only ONE Dreamer dreaming the WHOLE THING....So you are not open that simply there can be two dreamers or 7 billion separate dreams? 

 


my mind is gone to a better place.  I'm elevated ..going out of space . And I'm gone .
