The only reason we judge it, because when it is excessive it creates tyranny. But healthy arrogance is possible. Every emotion is contextual, in the correct context arrogance is healthy. 

Now we are talking. 

That’s what I am saying: Arrogance has its place. It is NOT bad. But often it is overused, people don’t back it up with anything solid, and those that do, win. 

It's about balance and as you said, in the correct context arrogance is healthy. Similarly, in various contexts, arrogance can be deadly.

Oh then I apologize I thought you were saying Arrogance was bad absolutely. My bad didn't know. Good. But the truth is....this is true of anything. You can be excessively humble (like a hippie) who goes around saying everything is love and never stands up for themselves. But the secret is... we all balance each other out.

God made each of us imbalanced in a specific way so we can find people who through their example can show a healthy ways of balance. Both past and present. I have some friends who are too humble, and some who are too arrogant, and I've cycled (and continue to do so) between both. Sometimes I'm humble when I should push back, and sometimes I push hard when I should be soft.

I've notice that the Masculine gets a bad wrap because the Masculine expression the planet has been so excessive we demonize it. The Masculine is beautiful when it is tempered with a healthy feminine but the problem is sometimes even when you have the right balance, in an unbalanced environment...it can come across as imbalanced.

Think about that one....you could be balanced...but in an unbalanced world they can accuse you of being out of balance. CRAZY.


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.

Can you please touch on the rapist part, I read you two's convo and I don't think he understands that God did not invent rape. Associating rape with arrogance, an emotion, is a different thing from an action. I understand the point he was making because you said God made humans arrogant because it helps with invention and arrogance and can be useful and everything God invented in humans is for the highest good or something like that. But when he mentioned rapists, I knew he misunderstood what you were saying in this regard because God didn't invent rape, rape is what low consciousness people do and is an action not a God invented emotion.

@Razard86yes sir! 

It's the same for me, cycling between humbleness and arrogance. Recently, I swung toward humbleness because of some excess arrogance. Nonetheless talking to you has ensured that I’ll never have a bias against arrogance lol. 

And yeah, an imbalanced or toxic environment can make you seem out of balance even if you are well-calibrated. The environment expects us to calibrate ourselves to it. I’ve heard Dr. Gabor talk about something similar in a podcast.

You cant preach that everything is god, then go on to say this. Rape has only ever been gods doing. Every rape that has ever happened in the universes history has been committed by god.

God is a rapist, let that sink in.

There's nothing that isn't god invented.

Actions have to be made by someone, you? but who are you? god.

Well ummm God invented rape. God is both the rapist and the victim of the act. Also rape is an expression of arrogance. The person believes their sexual desires are more important than the person who refuses to give consent. Rape is about power. Arrogance is about power. Arrogance likes to use power to dominate, intimidate, and to gain ownership. Rape follows those same dynamics.

Rape is domination, intimidation, and an act of taking control over one's body by force which is a form of ownership. This is a gross misuse of power, and is actually an act of tyranny no different than dictatorship. But the hardest part of the Spiritual Path is opening up your mind to seeing the Goodness in every act in the Universe. 

You cannot do this from a state of ego consciousness, you can only do this from a unitive consciousness. Everything that ever happens is Absolute Good, but because we have skin in the ground, because of physical and emotional pain a message like this is untenable. But since God is infinite love, it must express everything without limit on what it can express. As such, rape, genocide, child molestation, and whatever other grotesque expressions from the ego perspective must be expressed.

The best way to understand this...when you watch movies and t.v. shows the better the villain the better the story. Every great story has a great hero, and a great villain only enhances the hero. A writer of a story would never take anything off the table, they would explore and experiment with as many elements as they can to deepen the story. Well God is the deepest and the most complex...and thus evil is born, from the ego's perspective.

Guys, this is not what I meant. Yes, everyone is God and a person that rapes is also God. But God is also the Devil, but the Devil doesn't exist. God didn't invent anything, God is Being everything.  @Razaard will do a better job at explaining this. I know he understands what I meant and what I'm talking about and if I'm wrong about something, he'll simplify it.

God didn't invent. God is. But I understand the rest of your post. This has always been a bit confusing to me. Does god look at it as rape or is it just energy appearing as rape and we call it rape.

I do not preach. I just express myself and say what I have either recognized, realized or understand to be the case from my own viewpoint and/or perspective. There's a difference. I'm still in training wheels learning about myself and Reality, so excuse me if I may say something a bit off, but I never claim anything I say to be the Truth.

This concept is called Mirroring and it is a well known skill in the Self-Development World but the Metaphysical Knowledge behind why it works is hilarious. If Robert Greene really knew why it worked...he'd fall out of his chair.

You can’t have any kind of dualistic experience without creation/invention. You would just be forever experiencing infinity as nothing because they are the same. For you to experience something, infinity has to divide itself. That’s the moment in which something is created/manifested. Or in your phrasing “invented” although invention is a cyclical term as it assumes it didn’t already exist, which isn’t true.

Btw I wasn’t busting your balls just trying to get my point across.

Well invention and isness, are the same thing. God does everything.

Think about this...God is the most selfish thing ever....because God is totality of all Selves. God is so selfish, so Self absorbed that God is completely selfless. So God is both extremes, selfish and selfless. The selfishness of God...is the totality of all of our selfishness, and the selflessness of god is the formless potentiality from which all self appears from.

No human actually exists, human is just a term we use to refer to God as a bipedal (2 arms 2 legs) creature. In truth using the word human puts us to sleep. We could just call everything God and be done with it, but we like to refer to our individuality and our story. 

Any other questions?

@Princess Arabia Invention is also ‘ising’, and vice versa. The distinction between these two collapses in the absolute context. You may attempt going one level of abstraction above the point from where you create/notice the distinction between being and invention.

Ok thank you. And thank you for not being dismissive (not sure if that's the right word) in your response and explanation. This is why we're here -.to learn, teach, share, help observe and make pointers, atleast this is why I am. So,.if there is something I'm not clear about ori'm wrong about, I'm always open to try to understand, so it can become.clear to me. Not saying every explanation I will take on as truth, but it may make me aware of something I can ponder about and decide for myself if it makes sense, even though not every truth makes sense.

@Princess Arabia It’s a pleasure for me. I would also like to thank you for the acknowledgment.

That’s exactly why we are here. IMO, It’s just that everyone has a way of communicating that was shaped by their survival needs, and hey, it works for them. 

I am a professional writer, so that has shaped the way I write. It has taught me that writing is radically different than speaking, and you have to be precise, or else you may convey an emotion or sentiment that you didn't intend. 

Therefore, it's easy to come across as dismissive and excessively assertive, which usually makes the reader recoil, and we generally try to avoid that. 

Anyways, that’s some meta information to contemplate on.

Sometimes I think language and words when explaining this sort of stuff get be a barrier, and can cause misunderstandings, as well as can be downright false in it's use and interpretations. So sometimes I have to be aware of that and also be aware of what someone is trying to point out to me and seeing if it's the same thing I'm saying or meaning VS something entirely different and is pointing me more towards the right direction. 

But I do understand the Infinity thing and dualism and how things become created/manifested, and dividing itself etc

Where do you write and not to veer off the topic too much, but can you briefly explain what you write and/or for whom. I also love writing but I don't do it professionally.

Of course! I enjoy writing a wide range of content, from blogs to YouTube scripts and everything in between. Currently, I'm working on various projects for different clients. On top of that, I like to share my thoughts in a somewhat poetic way on my Instagram account. It's a fun way to express myself and connect with others. 

What about you? Do you write?

Well, thanks for the clarification on that. I looked at inventing as a subject and an object, so if God is one with it's creation how is it separate. So that's where I was a bit confused. Sometimes words can become an obstacle in trying to convey this stuff, I guess.

Don't you get smart with me, my beloved one. That sounded a little like "well, excuse me, but do you have anything else to debunk". Lol.    You know I'm always asking something because, like you said, children always ask why we just got tired of asking. Growing up I was always the why, why, why one, until the why got tired of itself asking. I even started going to college to study psychology because I wanted to know why so much, but I only lasted one semester. I got a 3.5gpa, 2A's and 2B's. Thought I'd throw that in just to show off. Show off nothing of relevance. Lol
