Alexander Posted October 26 Share Posted October 26 I am enjoying dualistic thoughts.I enjoy being separate self dealing with others.I enjoy happiness chasing for new experiences and getting things.I enjoy life. Quote Mention Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mandy Posted October 26 Share Posted October 26 Yes, but that isn't typically what's pointed to when people talk about duality around here. The rainbow of colors is dualistic, yet it is whole and beautiful and serves creation. Mass shootings, racism, and self hatred, however, do not. Feeling guidance, rainbow = beautiful, choosing the red apples over the green apples because they make you happy, awesome, serves creation, feels good. Being fearful and resentful of someone based on the color of their skin, gender, or nationality, feels awful.

The separate self can never realize consciousness is infinite. Because the holding of the separate self belief is actually what is veiling our Being Quote Mention ♾️ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Orb Posted October 26 Share Posted October 26 Just now, Alexander said: I think living from Being or what's in our direct experience is quite limited not unlimited. But it's the separate self implied by thoughts that is saying this 😂. The separate self of thoughts is like a lawyer, it finds all the little loop holes and excuses to continue suffering. Sitting down, with attention on breathing or sensation is the only remedy. No amount of thinking, philosophizing, or debating here is gonna do what meditation does. Because meditation is the absence of doing, efforting, arguing, mental masturbation, etc. Quote Mention ♾️ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orb Posted October 26 Share Posted October 26 @Alexander it's really that simple, so simple that the egos like no way there's gotta be something better... And that's the suffering. Quote Mention ♾️ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joseph Maynor Posted October 26 Share Posted October 26 (edited) You can come to enjoy: Duality Nonduality The Marriage between Duality and Nonduality And there's no hierarchy and there's no necessity of having all three needing to be in place either. You could revolve around one, two, or three and be moving in and out of these constructs as well as your ego/soul/spirit explores what interests it.

There is no duality for nonduality to marry...there is no "other", it would be like marrying your own foot. The thing you enjoy is the illusion that there is duality. Which is sometimes enjoyable, and sometimes sucks a bag of dicks. As long as there is the illusion of duality it will seem either enjoyable or miserable, that's the nature of the dualistic illusion. It'll never stay enjoyable or shitty. Edited October 26 by Jonas Long Quote Mention Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I say what I said. We don't need to determine who is right or wrong, unless you choose to do that. And if so, that's your trip. You don't need to be comparative. Just find what resonates with you and share that. Be constructive not destructive in motive if possible. Playing the role of the cop giving someone a ticket is tiring and not necessary. You don't need to compare with anyone to just say what you think is best and leave the criticism to others. All we're doing is sharing our words here. It's not that serious. Create!
