Nothing is ever truly "wrong" when viewed from the perspective of eternity, Karen Sanchez19.

But if we look through the lens of "limited consciousness," simply uttering the name of God precedes any sense of being separate from Him.

The mere mention of the ABSOLUTE supersedes your fatal obsession with "individuality."

It is this very separation from God, driven by that ruinous sense of self, that constitutes the true hell of your existence.

Shree Ramakrishn is merely teaching you about duality.
He strikes at the very core of your innocent, human heart.
Why? Because he is preoccupied with being a devoted SAINT among the outcasts.
What kind of Nirvana is that?
People like that have done nothing but harm their own kind.
Narcissists and lunatics.🙄

Look, once you actually *learn* a "topic," it doesn't just vanish from your brain. You get it now?

I'm going to leave the rest alone. Honestly, I don't have the energy to go back and forth with you.

Nothing is ever "wrong" from the perspective of eternity, Master Gristi.

From the vantage point of "specialized consciousness," however, merely mentioning God predestines you to a sense of separation from that very same God.

Of course, I agree,

The mere mention of the ABSOLUTE predestines you to that fatal "INDIVIDUALITY."

For me, invoking the absolute serves only to quiet the mind.

P.S. You have my email.

Jason Johnson4 said:The "topics" you learn stick with you forever. You get it now?

I'm not going to bother arguing about the rest; I really don't have the energy to go back and forth with you.

Look, I don't exactly sit around memorizing every single conversation I've ever had or every post I've ever put online. 🙂

🙂

Was someone looking for me?

Honestly, anything you could possibly say about WOMEN is inherently wrong.

Even what Jose Reyes says is incorrect!

And, if I'm being completely honest with myself, even what I just said is wrong! 😵

👋

No, that’s not quite what I mean—I’m saying these are mental constructs that you just *have* at your fingertips. You don't need to struggle to memorize them or hunt them down like those things people try to force themselves to learn by rote.

Before I get too far into this, I should mention that I’m actually glad to see you showing a slightly different side of yourself tonight (or maybe I was just perceiving you differently before). And hey, don't go dismissing those mindless EMOve posts just yet. Pride in him, pride in her.

Cheers, hats off to you!

Some people play it too low, while others blow things way out of proportion... honestly, who even cares? As long as they're talking about someone else... 😁
Nobody actually listens to their own gut. 😂

And what I just said? Completely false!

It’s also technically incorrect to claim that my assertion regarding your error was itself an error. 🙂 🙂 🙂

It’s like being forced to wake up three times in a single night while you're still trying to sleep. 😂😂

I'm still not quite following your logic. What I was actually getting at is that I couldn't recall the exact specifics of the previous discussion, not that I didn't have an opinion on it (😁). So, I just jumped off that by bringing up the idea of a monk getting married. Did I really veer that far off from what we were originally talking about?😕

Balkanijan Pig said:That’s not quite it. After that initial experience and what set him off, he retreated to a cave, and according to him, it was after spending years in isolation that he finally hit total enlightenment.😉

I actually heard a completely different version of that story. 🙂

But then what else is there? If you take spirituality out of the equation, what’s even left to give life meaning? What other choice do we really have?

Honestly, everything starts looking a lot brighter and more manageable once you just accept the idea that nothing has any inherent meaning—not even "spirituality."🙂

Jose Reyes said:"Your 'immediate' and 'right now' perception of the world is your current REALITY and TRUTH. How could there be any 'other truths' besides YOUR OWN?"
This is basically the essence of the SEC and the core of Non-Duality teachings.
...........................................

So, just live your "burning" REALITY and TRUTH without getting caught up in "complexities."
Stop relying on your own fickle, unreliable intellect.
Embrace every shift in perspective that gets breathed into you by Master John’s "white cosmic sword of consciousness."

🙂 🙂 🙂

Everything is "given" out of thin air, Ravana.
People always go on about what they're *going* to do, how they'll pick up the shovel, how much work they'll put in—time slips away while they just talk, talk, talk...
ME, ME, ME...
It's just an endless cycle of empty promises.

Herpes said:YEAH, YEAH, YEAH...
Just endless eggs.

And I seriously can't help but think of that old joke where two sperm cells are talking and one asks the other, "Do you believe in life after the egg?"
😁
Later, EMHu!👋

Herpes said:Everything just "happens" out of thin air, Ravana.
People spend all their time going, "I'll do this," or "I'll do that," or "I'll grab my shovel," while the clock just keeps ticking away, blah, blah, blah...
ME, ME, ME...
It's just an endless loop of ego.

But anyway...

Who's down for some pizza!?

It’s impossible to avoid. Every single time, I end up picturing those two sperm cells having a conversation, where one turns to the other and asks, "Do you even believe in life after the egg?"

😂

👍

Count me in, as long as they aren't loaded with eggs.
😁 🙂 😁

Lame Deer said:Nahhh...

Who wants some breakfast burritos!?

Hmm, I'd rather just have some coleslaw. Honestly, all this deep philosophical nonsense from these "experts" feels like it's just gonna mess with my digestion.😁

Anonymous said:Honestly, I'd stick to coleslaw. All this deep philosophical nonsense from these "experts" just feels like it's messing with my digestion.😁

We all know you'd rather just eat cheap fast food and cabbage. And yet, here you are, acting all high and mighty about it.
😁 😁 😁
Maybe try drinking some Pepto-Bismol first to clear out your system, and then you can come back and talk to us.

So, where did all the actual experts vanish to? It feels like everywhere you look now, it’s just a sea of "opinionated" amateurs who couldn't fix a leaky faucet or handle basic plumbing if their lives depended on it!! 😂-😂-😂
