[Does money bring happiness?]

It's obvious friend. If you have no money you became an slave, you could starve, you can't pay a doctor, you could see how your kids die of many different ways. We are collaborative beings. If you have no money, nobody is going to collaborate with you 

[The ego]

ceaseless internal dialogue is the work of the ego to be. if it stops, the ego dies. It doesn't matter what you say, the important thing is to say something. It's like your heart beating it cannot stop if it wants to exist. stop it and  infinity will realize itself 

[Can someone just give me an enlightenment for dummies answer?]

enlightenment is realizing that everything is infinite. if everything is infinite, there can only be one. if everything is infinite, infinity is god. if everything is infinite, you are infinite and you are god, because there is nothing else, there are not parts, only the whole. they will tell you: that is nonsense because there is no you, and that is enlightenment. narrow-minded people. I mean you as what you are, not your mother's son. you are something right? because you are infinite, you are reality and you are god. it is completely obvious, and there is no need to make it a mistery, it's just the reality. You only need to realize of the infinity.

It's not easy. You have to remove all limits of your mind :years of meditation, renounce, etc, or do seriously psychedelics. Your mind is a machine of limitation, so don't underestimate his power. 

[I cannot find source]

There is no source, there is just you. You just have to dissolve the limits that yourself have imposed and realize the limitless. The way to do that is understanding what the limits are. Enjoy the trip

[Why is there suffering? Is there really a way out of it?]

@Blessed2 great. You way of thinking is the way of the freedom. In short: you have been programmed to torture yourself. You just have to stop to do it

In long: you have to understand all the mechanic of the ego, of the reality, of what are you, to stop to torture yourself. You have to loose any attachments and be free.

I hope you have the balls to do it. Anything else is a shit. Cut roads,. So if i were you, i would do without doubt

 

[Self acceptance. God acceptance]

@Godisherein short: infinity. that is enlightenment. when you realize that you are infinite, there is no loneliness because you are infinite. you are one and multiple at the same time. you are one because there can be nothing outside of you, you are multiple because you are everything that can be. when you perceive the infinity of everything, loneliness disappears. any solipistic feeling is ego. any feeling of isolation is ego. reality is freedom without limits

Understandable & totally not a problem. 😅  Flip your script… notice the underlying discord is the topic, and notice that seems to be of, related to or coming from a “Phil”, and continue to scrutinize direct experience in that respect. 

In the same fashion, happen… yet maybe not ‘to a me’… and maybe that is the underlying insight to be seen. 

I’m proposing seeing panic attacks are less out of the blue, and that there is momentum which can be ‘seen’ in terms of discord & alignment with thoughts… followed by the body, and all of experience / appearance. Furthermore, that “the body” is a thought, and what the thought points to is infinite intelligence, unconditional well being… and some thoughts and substances resonate, and some do not. Ambition & manipulation therein (collectively) can be sneaky, sneaky mofo’s. The difference, is the intention(s) behind, prior to. 

I say you’re not allowing love into your body, relationships, dreams and life, and you’re feeling that not allowing / asserting / adhering to beliefs / putting what you believe you know / being right, above how you feel. But no worries, God don’t listen to nobody & All is Well. 

Direct experience is the key. There is not direct experience of “for some of us”. The relevance is spotting the very conceptualizations which are the aversion. 

“Phobia” is another conceptualization. Much easier (and feels great) to align thought with feeling, vs believing the thought / conceptualization. 

Similarly, there is not an actual experience of “every time you think”.  Appearing thoughts are experienced directly. 

When one is triggered it is as if one can go one of two ways - inspect the discord - or ‘it’s a problem’ /  ‘we have a problem’ / ‘you’re the problem’.  We’ve tried building missiles big enough to resolve the discord... …

… …Doesn’t seem to work, seems to extrapolate suffering via conceptualization of meaning, purpose & value. 

 

Comparison is sometimes used as a tool of confusion. 

Expression is the key. 

Intention matters, and intuition tells us so.

So to speak. 

 

I once knew a guy who also believed in evidence. He took 1 gram of mushrooms at it was the funniest darnedest ‘thing’. 

Reading you gives me a strange feeling. like trying to navigate in a wrinkled paper smeared with glue. weakens me, makes me feel stuck. I tried to read the text 3 times but i couldn't. Why? Maybe it's something with my understanding? Or it's impossible to understand? 

[I can't seem to overcome my fear of death]

Detach yourself from yourself and you will stop fearing. attachment is the whole problem. what are you afraid of? to lose what? you will lose everything. there is nothing you can keep from a dream, since it is nothing. become aware that at this very moment everything can disappear. It is not easy to lose attachment since it is something primary. but it is necessary if you want to stop torturing yourself. we are all in that, in freeing ourselves. there are many degrees, the freer, life is more fluid, richer, more colorful. the more attached, the more miserable

[What is God? God realization?]

it is something quite simple. it is the disappearance of the limits of your mind. many want to glamorize it and make themselves special. it's nothing special. everything is unlimited. a spit on the ground is unlimited. reality has no limits, and obviously reality is you. we are all the complete and unlimited reality, aka god, and this is nothing special. It has always been like this and it is the only thing there is, but it is not unique because it is unlimited, so unique and multiple are the same. you just have to dissolve all the shitty barriers that limit your mind, and that's it. really, there's nothing special about it, it's more common than make shit. when they say that: it's amazing, I fell on my knees crying, etc, it's that they want to make it special. It's business as usual. what it is, the only thing there is: infinity.  wonderfully infinite. free.

 

[What is nonduality?]

non-duality is truth, and truth is not two. all is one, as is absolutely obvious. non-duality is not a philosophy, but a way of perceiving, of being, of understanding existence, in a deep and real way, going beyond of the fragmentation of the mind.
