If someone handed you the 'book of your life,' would you want to jump to final pages to see how it ends...or savor every moment of your story?

    Teja, is there such a thing as a not-separate self? It seems the illusion of the self is that it is separate, not that it exists. By analogy, the question is whether there is only the ocean or whether there is the ocean and waves, the waves with no independent, separate existence from the ocean that they are.

      @@Aaron-xb4rq No. Being is not a "thing," as in a portal or machine that can crank out universes. It is Nothing, and our 'minds' cannot understand how Something/This Everything can emerge from Nothing. And that's OK, it's fine that the human mind can't grasp that. But what a keen human mind can extrapolate form that, is that if Nothing was the only 'raw material' that Being had to 'create' from, everything it _appears_ to create must be made of Nothing, too. This universe is an empty projection, an apparition. And the substratum isn't really Being...that's just a nice word we assign. It's Nothing.

    • @alreadyenlightenedwtejaana4767
      @alreadyenlightenedwtejaana4767 7 днів тому

      'Pre-determined' is not the correct concept. For something to be pre-determined, it requires the passage of time, no? But time is as much a part of the illusion as agency. There is nonly What Is, only Now. So there is no 'future' in which something will happen, whether pre-determined or not. There's only What Is. PS: The mind cannot grasp this...so avoid trying to 'understand' this.

    Sometimes i have almost-fourth wall breaking "moments". Really, as if ever lasting eyes had always been in front of us. But this "moment" wich is the total negation of all life ends, life is still here, and i can´t find anything to do, no questions, no reason, just a tremendously painfull sense of being so absurdly imprisioned. I can not understand why this awarness comes if there is not the capability of holding it. It just vanishes all life but life is still here. Even thinking or asking questions seems absurd because this awarness just eliminates them. But no realization, no enlightenment. Still a person. And is very difficult to understand. Most people that are trap in this game, even most of the spiritual ones, does not have this real fourth wall breaking "moments". Breaking fourth wall should be all or nothing, complete, or non existent. But this game of "almost, almost" is really incomprehensive. And i can not understand how to live an un-existent life that can not stop existing. The only answer i can find is "then, relate with someone, live for someone", but i have no one. Not even a regular friend.

    • @cameronburnett9679
      @cameronburnett9679 2 місяці тому

      Yeah. It feels like the resistance to silence is tiring and it takes effort to stay there. There's a snap-back to thoughts because there is more rest there, due to the ego mechanism no longer fighting in thought-mode. On occasion it's easy to remain in silence, so I get it. It's possible. It's just a matter of breaking the mechanism that resists staying. This mechanism is the one that makes the body tired due to the constant resistance to silence. It feels like withdrawal symptoms. It seems to get better with persistence but I've half-assed it for years and not much has changed so I think one has to really commit.
