That's just my experience. I was really just talking to myself, reminding myself. Sometimes I forget. Sometimes I can't relate to others not seeing the divine because I've seen it my entire life, since I was 7 and had the ability to. So I speak as if it's easy or something natural. To me, its seeing what is right in front of your face. Edited July 3, 2022 by Proserpina ??????? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Love can trigger feelings, but existentially Love isn't a feeling, Love is literal Oneness. We are talking about metaphysical Love here, not human emotions. The highest Love isn't gonna be something you feel emotionally, it's going to be the act of you melting into Nothing. Of course Nothingness is Love. Love is the realization that everything equals everything else. @Leo Gura But what about those extremely blissful states on psychedelics? I thought that is what you truly are when you merge back into yourself fully. Those states where there is no longer a body, just pure bliss and beautiful fractals/mandalas. Isn't that God at it's fullest? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The love/bliss states you get on psychedelics are a consequence of your consciousness expanding to recognize the absolute truth of metaphysical Oneness. The psychedelics are not giving you good feelings. The psychedelics are raising your conscious high enough to where you can see metaphysical Oneness, and this seeing then produces good feelings which you confuse for love. It's not the feeling which is Love, it's the metaphysical Oneness. You are God. You are Truth. You are Love. You are Infinity. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

To me, its seeing what is right in front of your face. You are very blessed to have seen it since 7. Nice!!! You are a selfless LACK OF APPEARANCE, that CONSTRUCTS AN APPEARANCE. But that appearance can disappear and reappear and we call that change, we call it time, we call it space, we call it distance, we call distinctness, we call it other. But notice...this appearance, is a SELF. A SELF IS A CONSTRUCTION!!! So if you want to know the TRUTH OF THE CONSTRUCTION. Just deconstruct the construction!!!! No point in playing these mind games!!! No point in creating needless complexity!!! The truth of what you are is a BLANK!!!! A selfless awareness....then that means there is NO OTHER, and everything you have ever perceived was JUST AN APPEARANCE, A MIRAGE, AN ILLUSION, IMAGINARY. Everything that appears....appears out of a lack of appearance/void/no-thing, non-sense (can't be sensed because there is nothing to sense). That is what you are, and what arises...is made of that. So nonexistence, arises/creates existence. And thus everything is solved. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's not the feeling which is Love, it's the metaphysical Oneness. That's true - when I experienced the highest bliss reality was One. The feeling of I was in the air, in the cabinets, etc.. I didn't make the connection the way you explained it. Need to trip more.. That was very helpful, thank you! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted July 13, 2022 1 hour ago, Leo Gura said: There is nothing better than being awake. I totally believe you, since the dreaming state is filled with suffering. What I don't understand is why does God need to dream up suffering and loss if being fully conscious is blissful? I've had my glimpses of awakening and I swear to God I would have never come back to the human self. Yet, I had to. Why? I don't understand why chase suffering? Inquire in the now.

Because being unlimited for too long become pointless and meaningless. It's too easy. It's more fun to dream and experience drama and limitation. If you became fully unlimited you would get bored of it and want to experience being limited. From God's POV being unlimited is not better than being limited. To elevate unlimitedness over limitedness is a bias, see? And God has no biases. It loves all states of itself equally. You are God. You are Truth. You are Love. You are Infinity.

If you became fully unlimited you would get bored of it and want to experience being limited. This is a perspective I have heard many times. The question and argument I have is unlimited God mode and extreme limitation are not the only options available to an infinite mind. There are many degree's in between these two that could be explored. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted July 14, 2022 11 minutes ago, Leo Gura said: And God is exploring between those two, too. A human is not as limited as rock. @Leo Gura Good point. What I'm trying to convey is there are endless degree's of limitation to explore after this human experience before you get to unlimited God mode. It's not only God mode or limited human. I have explored some of them during OBE's. I have to say the tremendous feeling of freedom and joy you feel from shedding this very dense physical body makes it very difficult to come back to this reality. I guess we want to experience a diverse spectrum of limitation. Leo during any of your awakenings did you ever get insight into why you created your specific life with it's unique challenges?

I am not interested in proving anything or convincing anyone of anything. I have seen and experienced enough to know we are capable of much more than most of us are demonstrating. We haven't even scratched the surface yet. I would recommend people not adopt limited belief's and opinion's of others and instead test it out for themselves with an open mind and see what happens.

Posted July 14, 2022 (edited) Love has no opposite And nothingness has no opposite. But somehow they are not fully the same i believe. Im not sure. Maybe nothingness is the masculine of god and love is feminine of god. Edited July 14, 2022 by Salvijus I simply am. You simply are. We are The Same One forever. Let us join in Glory.
