I mean... wouldn't it make more sense to say "integrate" instead of "disintegrate"?!

I just find myself drifting through Outer Space, and then suddenly it hits me—all of this is actually happening right here on that little blue marble hanging on the horizon.

Man, I’d give anything to just reach out and grab 😁 😉

SILENCE AT THE OBJECTIVE LEVEL - SILENCE AT THE OBJECTIVE LEVEL
by Henry Landier

There’s a table,
there’s a wall,
and there’s a heart.
Looking out at the world,
I see this thing I label a "table,"
and this thing I call a "wall."
Reaching inward,
I sense this thing I name a "heart."

But it isn't really "a table,"
it isn't truly "a wall,"
nor is it actually "a heart."
Shh... then what is it?

The thing is, to even recognize that stuff,
I needed the labels "table" and "wall."
To experience that feeling,
I needed the concept of a "heart."
When I No Longer Have "table" and "wall,"
When I No Longer Have "form" and "background,"
What Do I See Outside?
When I No Longer Have "heart"
What Do I Feel Inside?

So, tell me, do you realize
what actually happens
When I No Longer Have "outside,"
when the distinction between "inside" vanishes,
when the very idea of "I" disappears,
when...?

The sign says: This is not a pipe.

Alright, since I’m stepping up to be the first one to chime in here,
I’ll try my best to make this as clear as possible, 🙂

Look, you can attempt to define just about anything, but true definition is an impossible feat. It’s simply because the map—the definition itself—is never actually the territory it’s trying to represent. The map is not the territory.

Chi-A.D. - 'Healing Magic'

There’s this specific healing ritual known as "the blessing way," something handed down through generations of our Navajo heritage. You can't just wing it, either—the songs and prayers have to be performed exactly as they’ve been for centuries, otherwise, you won't be able to call upon the Holy People. I remember sitting there as a kid, watching my dad go through the chants, seeing firsthand the power of that Healing Magic.

....

When the fight to keep going feels impossible, or when the pull to reunite with those who came before is just too much to resist, the body eventually just lets go.

....

But, on the flip side, if that spark to live—that raw desire to carry on—burns bright enough, the Holy People might just show some mercy.

Aha 😬 😁

Oh man, Karen Sanchez19, seriously 🙄

I just don't have the energy to 😉 😁 🙂

Karen Sanchez19, how on earth are you supposed to tell if a fish in an aquarium is male or female?

Just toss a little piece of bread into the tank. If she gobbles it up, she’s a female; if he eats it, then he’s a male.🙂

Abraham Lincoln is a man.😁

Dechko, you're just talking nonsense.

G: So, what exactly is the soul?

hollowtrucker: It's an eternal spark, part of the flame of God.

G: And what about God?

hollowtrucker: God is the ultimate source and final destination of absolute consciousness—pure, everlasting bliss.

So basically... the soul is just this eternal, living spark from the very source and end point of absolute consciousness and infinite bliss. 😵 😁 😬 🙂

hollowtrucker said:Who exactly is this "knower" doing all the perceiving?

First off, Karen Sanchez19, you’ve gotta ask yourself: what even is the instrument of perception?

Look, let’s keep it simple; we determine if something is hard or soft by touch.
The fact that we use touch proves our tools for understanding are inherently limited.

So, what does "unlimited" actually mean? What can be perceived without limits?

And how on earth are you supposed to perceive God if He is truly absolute?

Well, through absolute perception, Karen Sanchez19. That’s the only way.

So, what are the actual methods for grasping the absolute?

Now *that* is how you properly frame the problem.

It isn't philosophy—because, let’s be honest, philosophy is just a bunch of arbitrary rules that nobody actually follows.
It isn't religion either, since religion is just a set of rigid, non-existent rules that everyone feels forced to obey.

That leaves us with theurgy or theosophy.

Or maybe just pure self-indulgence? 🙂

Come on, give me the full breakdown 🤣 😬

nikol said:I mean, yeah. Let’s be honest, everyone on this forum is totally insecure. First off, most people here seem to have an existential crisis about their own existence, and honestly, I don't even need to go any further than that.

🤣 🙄 🤣

Ahu Soph Nia said:
God, Spirit, and Soul are three distinct manifestations of the spiritual realm.

...

From a spiritual perspective, these three things are one; even if there are differences.

"even if there are differences"

Honestly, there aren't any. I mean, wherever you find 1, you've already found 2 and 3. 😉 😁

Jason Johnson4 said:Is there some bad energy hanging over you? Or did you just run out of gas?

You clearly can't see 😉clearly enough

Is that straight out of some old dusty Bible, or just nonsense? 😬

Ahu?

Where exactly?
