How Did God Manage to Accept Himself?

4 posts in this topic

Hello.

I was watching one of @Leo Gura's videos about God — he mentioned that infinite consciousness has accepted itself and the nature of its being.

Last night I had an insight into the nature of reality: total acceptance must be ensured for a happy life. Unless I'm working on my mind's kernel to accept existence as it is, I can not be happy.

Infinite consciousness is indeed epic, as @Leo Gura says, but the fact that it's eternal, is that a good thing? Is it acceptable? And why isn't infinite consciousness intolerable?

I AM is the profound realization and it can scare the sh*t out of you.

@eTorro

What scares you even more is that this I AM is also an experience to be had so it is not you, becuse there is no you : ) You don't have to accept every experience you have - only those that you want to bring joy to "your" life:D God has no ego and therefore it does not choose one over another one.


Who told you that "others" are real?

Isness is Acceptance. If something exists, it is accepted. That is what Acceptance is.

The fact that Suffering exists, means that it was fully accepted. Total Acceptance means to Suffer, to fear suffering, to resist suffering, to be happy, to be unhappy. To be tolerable, to be intolerable. Acceptance is not merely psychological, it is metaphysical.

 

You have already accepted EVERYTHING. You accepted infinite Suffering. And this is it, this is your acceptance of it. Your existence is pure and full acceptance . There is no deeper acceptance than that my friend.

 

This is your courage. You have accepted Existence so fully that you made yourself ignorant, because your ignorance was required for reality to be complete. Your inacceptance is that which you Accepted. Everything that will ever happen to you, you are fully embracing. That's what it means for something to happen to you.

God IS acceptance of itself totally already.
