Orb Posted October 26, 2023 Share Posted October 26, 2023 (edited) 1 hour ago, Omar Osama said: How can someone overcome the duality perspective? By the recognition that youre already not the "someone" in that thought. Ive heard Mandy use the Author analogy which is a great one. Imagine you were writing a book and believed you were the character inside the story you were writing as you wrote the book, and then as the character in the story you tried to get out of the book, not recognizing you are the author and already are free. 1 hour ago, Omar Osama said: How to stop believing that there is a god and there is also me? By the recognition that this is just a thought arising and not getting entangled in it. What comes first: Thought and then Being? Or first there is Being (The Self) and then it(You) appears as thoughts? Which one? Edited October 26, 2023 by Orb Quote Mention "Mediocrity is gone. Mind is clear of limitation. I seek no state of enlightenment. Neither do I remain where no enlightenment exists. Since I linger in neither condition, eyes cannot see me.

Daniel Posted October 26, 2023 Share Posted October 26, 2023 3 minutes ago, Someone here said: That there is a you is self-evident. Every sane human being knows that he/she exists. We know that we exist, yes, but do we know who or what we actually are? We tend to believe that we're this temporary form that will eventually die, that has a particular name, personality traits, history, etc., but this is where we're mistaken. 6 minutes ago, Someone here said: Secondly..you think this extremely delicate universe with billions of galaxies and planets and creatures just arised out of coincidence? Lol atheism is funny . Its unfortunate that even @Phil himself is an atheist. I've got no idea, quite honestly - I have certain beliefs about how and why it all arose, but they're all just theories, I don't know them to be true. Is it all the work of God? Who or what even is God? Again, I've got no idea. I'd go along with Jesus' assertion that God is love, and that therefore all manifestation arose out of love, essentially, but again, that's little more than a hunch.

Orb Posted October 26, 2023 Share Posted October 26, 2023 (edited) Duality is not a particular perspective, all thoughts imply a duality. The Self is perspective-less. Thoughts arising right now are proof that you are free already, proof that you are No-Mind already. Edited October 26, 2023 by Orb Quote Mention "Mediocrity is gone. Mind is clear of limitation.

Daniel Posted October 26, 2023 Share Posted October 26, 2023 @Someone here So you're essentially inferring that God exists, is that right? It sounds like you believe that God exists, whereas I asked how you know It exists. Quote Mention Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
