Oh and a whole lot of love!!!
Post your recipes below and show us some of your work. Be Most Excellent to eachother ✌️🍄👽🍄👽
You dont have to lose hobbies or interests. I love to make music , I love watching documentaries, I love going for walks, I love my personality. All those things are love and love is selfless. When you get interested in a deep topic, that interest brings you to pure Perceiving. So get lost in dance, get lost in Interests. That is the flow state. What's not flow state is to do something because you feel lack or fear or boredom. Center yourself first if you feel lack, then go for the walk or read the book AND MOST IMPORTANTLY when you go for that walk stay present. Usually when we feel lack during meditation we stop being present, we get lost in thought. So do alllll the things you love but with utter presence. It will feel more intimate, not less.
Personality and ego are not the same things either. Personality is the coloring or flavor of that localization of awareness in the dream. My personality is I love conspiracies, deep talks, horror, aliens, all sorts of things. That isnt ego. Ego is when awareness has a personality and identifies as the body/personality. Then the personalities diluted with ego, lack, fear. The personality will be moreso selfish and not creative and open.
Personality, hobbies, is how awareness expresses love. Its going to experience itself totally in all ways. Alllll personalities are personalities of The Self. In a dream it just appears to be divided up into many personalities because its subjectively experiencing itself from each localization of itself! Spirituality should make you feel more alive, more intimate with experince. Not less.
\*I also understand words cannot truly express the infinite nature of reality. But we can point a finger toward the light and encourage others to see. I also understand that "i" is just an illusion. I wish you all the best, be Most Excellent to eachother! ✌️👁🧘♂️

CONSCIOUSNESS "Those who Know, Know nothing"... Doesn't imply that those who are aware of their being/Truth doesnt know anything at all about the nature of reality.
It doesnt imply "those who know, dont know anything at all. We can't know.". That is a misconception.
The phrase express how in the moment of being pure Awareness, pure Perceiving, pure Knowing, all Awareness knows is Perceiving/Knowing. There is no Mind to that Awareness which says "i am Awareness, that is a table, that is sky". That would be a label, Mind. Perceiving doesnt have activity/Mind to it in those moments, it isnt conceptualizing like Mind. So when we know ourselves as Awareness or in other words when we are Aware that we are Aware, we dont know what we are as in a object or shape or form. We know ourselves just as Perceiving, Being.
Most importantly, as soon as we say "i am Awareness, i am pure Knowing, that is a tree etc.." that is thought, thought is the activity of Awareness or in other words "Mind". Mind and Awareness are not two, Mind is simply the activity of Awareness. So Mind, the activity of Awareness will say "i am this, i am that" conceptualizing reality.
But from a place of pure Knowing, just Perceiving, being Aware that I am Aware- there is no labels, no conceptualization, there is only Knowing or Awareness/Perceiving. In the moment of No Mind, I am Aware that I am Aware, I know my Being but there is no labeling, no activity. Just Perceiving.

Awareness is like the illusion of space in the room. Space doesnt have a self, no objective qualities, no dimensions, no name, no weight. Because it is selfless it allows things to appear within it. If space didnt have a selfless dimensionless quality to it, objects couldn't appear within it. Awareness is just like that. As Buddha would say or any Nondual teacher "The self is selfless like a flame. A flame has no self yet it is a continuum.". Hence the candle you light at night is not the same flame in the morning, it is constantly changing, no self yet a continuum.
Because Awareness is shapeless, formless, "No-thing" Some-thing is possible. Hence when we have a dream at night, because awareness has no self, no form, no weight or shape it cant take form of any shape, any size, any object.
I am not denying The Self, I am elaborating on its true nature. Dimensionless Knowing Being. 👁
*I understand space is an illusion, it was used for the metaphor to explain a selfless quality.
Much love to you all. ✌️👁🧘♂️

Like in a dream everything is appearing in one awareness. In a dream, if me and you are talking, what are we both made of and appearing in? The one awareness that is asleep.
We assume we are separate awareness because when we blink we see black. So we think "mm i must be inside of the head looking out, separate from the rest". But just like in a dream, of course the awareness we all share will see black when it blinks from that localization of the dream. In a dream you would blink and see black, as i would. But the awareness which perceives it is one, our shared being.
Infact nothing is two, that's a concept. Like hot and cold for example, they are not two. By law of thermodynamics there is no such thing as cold but lesser or more degrees of heat. You can notice on a thermometer 🌡 that from 90 degrees down to say 20 is but lesser or more of the same one phenomenon - heat. Thats why when you touch something super cold it feels? Hot, burns.
Darkness and light are one. Darkness isnt an oppisite of light, it is an absence. There is great difference between oppisites and absence. If Darkness was an oppisite, i could take a handful of darkness, toss it on a candle and put out the light. But I cannot, it is an absence. Lesser or more degrees of the same one phenomenon-light.
Love and fear, One. Fear isnt an oppisite of love, its an absence. Love feels warm. Fear feels cold. Just like when there is lesser degrees of warmth it feels cold. Lesser degrees of love feels cold.
Mind divides all in two. It is nondual.
The body isnt aware either. Awareness is aware. The feeling of hands isnt awareness, feeling isnt aware. You awareness is aware of the feeling of hands. Just like you are aware of the feeling of phone. The feeling isnt aware. Just like in a dream the body isnt aware, awareness is aware.
Most assume they are the thinking in the head because when they think it sounds like their voice in their head. But we can change how we sound when we think, i can sing welcome to the jungle in my head and sound like the lead singer. We just identify with our body and voice so we think as the sound of it.
Most importantly thought doesn't know a thing. The thought dog isnt aware of the thought cat, neither thought knows of the other. Awareness is aware of the thought dog and thought cat. We are not the thinking, there is no thinker. We are the whole, eternal , dimensionless knowing being.
Death is an illusion. What does that mean? It means that awareness never dies. The body dies. But awareness remains. Its like when you fall asleep at night, your body dies right? Hence you no longer know of your body, your room, your life. You, as awareness, creates another dream. You go into the dream world as awareness and identify with a new body.
Start and end, on and off, those are concepts. Awareness does not fit into a conceptual frame. Meaning if I threw this phone across the room and I asked you "when was the start of me throwing my phone"?? Most would say "when you picked it up. When you let go etc..." .. But thats a frozen view of reality. Because in reality you would have to account for every action in my life that happened prior to me throwing the phone. If I woke up and put my shoes on differently and went to the store 3 minutes later I wouldn't have ever stumped my toe and threw it across the room. You could say "well youre birth was the start of you throwing the phone" but then we also have to account for my mother's birth and so on backwards. We freeze moments in time, start, end, start, end, but its all one flowing whole.
As for On and Off. This will answer your question more. On and off is a concept, you turn on the light and turn off the light. But as for awareness it never turns off. You've never not been aware. You'll say "but in deep sleep there is times I disappear, there is nothing to remember, no dream, i dissappeared'. But how do you know that? How do you know there was nothing? Because you (awareness) was present.
Deep sleep isn't the absence of awareness. It is the awareness of absence. Hence when you sleep there is 3 stages. First a dream state, then deep sleep, and dream state again before you wake up. Dreams are mind, mind is simply the activity of awareness. Mind isnt just thinking, it is smell, sight, taste, sensation, perception. So in a dream awareness is active, there is mind so there is the awareness of the activity. In deep sleep there is no activity in awareness, there is no mind, awareness experiences pure awareness, so there is nothing to remember but the absence of activity. You'll say but it was so quick, 2 hours was 1 second. True and thats because mind was absent. When youre having fun, totally present, time flies, time doesnt exist. So as pure awareness in deep sleep hours feels like 1 second. Then mind comes back when you wake and it thinks "i was gone, I was absent" true. But awareness is what you are and it percived the absence of activity.
And your next question will be "so after death there is nothing, just black void"?? NOT AT ALL. Its just like how when you fall asleep at night and awareness just has another dream..
When you have dreams at night, often it is so random, a dream of someone else's life. And that's what dreams are. Everything that has ever happened and ever will is within the one awareness that experienced it. So when awareness delocalizes after death it has access to its unlimited self. All lives, all memories.
Lets say you had a dream that me and you were talking. I have my own experiences, you have yours, then later in that dream we both fall asleep at night and have dreams. Dreams within a dream. . . Where did all those experiences and dreams take place? In the one awareness we both share in the main dream. In the dream, my mind, your mind, the whole world, is just the activity of the one awareness asleep. All is mind. The one mind. You sit and see walls, a world, people, thats all mind. Hence the activity of this one awareness we all share.👁

Infact nothing is two, that's a concept. Like hot and cold for example, they are not two. By law of thermodynamics there is no such thing as cold but lesser or more degrees of heat. You can notice on a thermometer 🌡 that from 90 degrees down to say 20 is but lesser or more of the same one phenomenon - heat. Thats why when you touch something super cold it feels? Hot, burns.
Darkness and light are one. Darkness isnt an oppisite of light, it is an absence. There is great difference between oppisites and absence. If Darkness was an oppisite, i could take a handful of darkness, toss it on a candle and put out the light. But I cannot, it is an absence. Lesser or more degrees of the same one phenomenon-light.
Love and fear, One. Fear isnt an oppisite of love, its an absence. Love feels warm. Fear feels cold. Just like when there is lesser degrees of warmth it feels cold. Lesser degrees of love feels cold.
Mind divides all in two. It is nondual.
The body isnt aware either. Awareness is aware. The feeling of hands isnt awareness, feeling isnt aware. You awareness is aware of the feeling of hands. Just like you are aware of the feeling of phone. The feeling isnt aware. Just like in a dream the body isnt aware, awareness is aware.
Most assume they are the thinking in the head because when they think it sounds like their voice in their head. But we can change how we sound when we think, i can sing welcome to the jungle in my head and sound like the lead singer. We just identify with our body and voice so we think as the sound of it.
Most importantly thought doesn't know a thing. The thought dog isnt aware of the thought cat, neither thought knows of the other. Awareness is aware of the thought dog and thought cat. We are not the thinking, there is no thinker. We are the whole, eternal , dimensionless knowing being.
Death is an illusion. What does that mean? It means that awareness never dies. The body dies. But awareness remains. Its like when you fall asleep at night, your body dies right? Hence you no longer know of your body, your room, your life. You, as awareness, creates another dream. You go into the dream world as awareness and identify with a new body.
Start and end, on and off, those are concepts. Awareness does not fit into a conceptual frame. Meaning if I threw this phone across the room and I asked you "when was the start of me throwing my phone"?? Most would say "when you picked it up. When you let go etc..." .. But thats a frozen view of reality. Because in reality you would have to account for every action in my life that happened prior to me throwing the phone. If I woke up and put my shoes on differently and went to the store 3 minutes later I wouldn't have ever stumped my toe and threw it across the room. You could say "well youre birth was the start of you throwing the phone" but then we also have to account for my mother's birth and so on backwards. We freeze moments in time, start, end, start, end, but its all one flowing whole.
As for On and Off. This will answer your question more. On and off is a concept, you turn on the light and turn off the light. But as for awareness it never turns off. You've never not been aware. You'll say "but in deep sleep there is times I disappear, there is nothing to remember, no dream, i dissappeared'. But how do you know that? How do you know there was nothing? Because you (awareness) was present.
Deep sleep isn't the absence of awareness. It is the awareness of absence. Hence when you sleep there is 3 stages. First a dream state, then deep sleep, and dream state again before you wake up. Dreams are mind, mind is simply the activity of awareness. Mind isnt just thinking, it is smell, sight, taste, sensation, perception. So in a dream awareness is active, there is mind so there is the awareness of the activity. In deep sleep there is no activity in awareness, there is no mind, awareness experiences pure awareness, so there is nothing to remember but the absence of activity. You'll say but it was so quick, 2 hours was 1 second. True and thats because mind was absent. When youre having fun, totally present, time flies, time doesnt exist. So as pure awareness in deep sleep hours feels like 1 second. Then mind comes back when you wake and it thinks "i was gone, I was absent" true. But awareness is what you are and it percived the absence of activity.
And your next question will be "so after death there is nothing, just black void"?? NOT AT ALL. Its just like how when you fall asleep at night and awareness just has another dream..
When you have dreams at night, often it is so random, a dream of someone else's life. And that's what dreams are. Everything that has ever happened and ever will is within the one awareness that experienced it. So when awareness delocalizes after death it has access to its unlimited self. All lives, all memories.
Lets say you had a dream that me and you were talking. I have my own experiences, you have yours, then later in that dream we both fall asleep at night and have dreams. Dreams within a dream. . . Where did all those experiences and dreams take place? In the one awareness we both share in the main dream. In the dream, my mind, your mind, the whole world, is just the activity of the one awareness asleep. All is mind. The one mind. You sit and see walls, a world, people, thats all mind. Hence the activity of this one awareness we all share.👁
