  1. "There is an idea of Patrick Bateman.....I'm simply not there" speech is the key of it.
  2. If you constantly overlook what's really going on in favor of conceptualizing, in time all of your conceptualizing that was assumed to be spirituality or consciousness will appear to be bullshit, because it is. But that's not spirituality, or consciousness. It's an egoic house of cards.
  3. I am exhausted and want to be distracted throughout my day until its over.
  4. Yeah, you're not ready yet. You keep circling it, projecting the misunderstanding.
  5. No, nothing changes, you've already accepted the truth, there isn't a choice really. As far as conceptualizing separateness, it's a learned habit, super ingrained, like smoking. And as far as that goes "i" still smoke all the time.
  6. You're onto something. Everything you've said spirituality or "sporituality" is, is total bullshit, yes. That's the misunderstanding of spirituality though.
  7. You don't have to surrender the self, you couldn't even if you tried; its never been there in the first place, there is nothing to surrender, you're fine.
  8. There is no boundary between "you" and every other thing that exists. No boundary=no duality.
  9. Every grift has a built in obsolescence.
  10. Didn't know exactly where to put this but I figured movies are cultural. Any questions welcome. So to start the list, a great '99 double feature: Fight Club Being John Malkovich
  11. The body you identify with can be observed, same with the thoughts, but the observer of the body and thoughts can't be observed.
  12. How dare you, this is defamation.
  13. But the implications of "not two" is being overlooked it seems.
  14. @Joseph Maynor you're down with ramana Maharshi right? Anything you can call "you" can be known, felt, or named, any thing that can be known, felt or named can not be the knower or seer itself. Thats the gist of it.
  15. Nonduality doesn't hold a belief that time doesn't exist. But nobody is experiencing time. There would have to be a subject to experience it. You can observe time and your "self", the one who experiences them is not what you are. The observer who observes time can not be observed, therefor is not a subject.
  16. Nobody here is talking about Neo-Advaita besides you.
  17. Other selves aren't you because there isn't a you. Perception is without boundaries. You'll never find a "perceiver" only perception.
  18. Illusions appear to contradict reality.
