GENIUS FORUMS

I agree with your OP but this one smacks of 60's thinking that has taken the Western world towards a state of quiet anarchy, ignorance and the idea that you don't have to work hard. You can also ignore the ideas of men [mostly] who were greater than you are and maybe, if you don't work hard, you wi...

Or in sahaja samadhi: http://www.srichinmoy.org/spirituality/ ... on/samadhi. The heart now reasons instead of the mind.

Nothing need be difficult. We'll have to agree to disagree.

There is a great deception afoot in the world of 'truth' seeking which is the idea that it is both possible and desirable to be free of causal influences, to be "wholly in the moment", to transcend meaning making and instead, BE "God's" meaning. I once believed this myself and o...

Causality is an intellectual idea that is unnecessary. It supposes an infinite past, but your experience is only ever right now. That's only because you might not have understood what is really meant with causality. Obviously it doesn't need the addition of timelines to get the principle. And when ...

I heard somewhere that Mother Theresa was depressed as she was helping the sick and the poor. Why not help them while you're content, or help them to become content. (Maybe "empowered" is a better word.)

Whatever you do is actually the subjective awareness doing. The only thing you do as the objective awareness is experience. But any interpretation of that experience would be subjective again, right? Why even bother with that notion of "objective awareness" as it's not aware of anything a...

It's not a question of passivity or activity. It's living like the subjective part of you, or the "unconscious," is in complete direction (as opposed to control) of your life. You deal with control as your conscious, waking self, but it is only an illusion. Trust is the key, leading to na...

DV, like the subjective part of you, or the "unconscious," is in complete direction (as opposed to control) of your life. Could you rephrase that or expand? The being "in complete direction". Whatever you do is actually the subjective awareness doing. The only thing you do as th...

My understanding of enlightenment is something like: Living in conscious awareness of one's position as part of the world. It is in opposition to the view of oneself as a separate entity in the world. The goal of enlightenment is to fully renounce one's ego. One will no longer experience shallow em...

I cannot see a scenario when opposition/death, therefore suffering, is absent from sentient consciousness. The basic eternal struggle to find something to eat or drink is born of the opposition to death. Who here hasn't caused some form of suffering in their quest for food and drink? And who here i...

I can appreciate the value in not bounding yourself to conventions, but logic is an instrument that only works if you use it right. If the definition of universe is that it contains one of everything and not itself, there can by definition be only one. If you want to use another term, by all means ...

I think enlightenment should be called "heart-centering." When your identification falls away, that's what happens.

Why wouldn't it work? Or why wouldn't it be as valuable?

Sushil, all is perception. my friend. What is "destroyed" when there's still so much biodiversity? Do you ever stop and think about all the forms of life on this planet? How can we ever make a dent it that? It would take a concerted effort to do just that. You say intelligence is an abhorr...

Hi All, I was recently sitting with 2 friends, and they asked me about my insights into ultimate reality. I explained my insights, and this led to a discussion about attachment. While one of my friends believes in ultimate reality in an intuitive way (better than nothing, I guess...), both said tha...

Having emotions "fade away" is really just making emotions calm and cold, even. They are still there, just unperturbable. Disassociated maybe. Nothing stays the same. Emotions are a way of connecting with the reality around you, whether local, global, or whathaveyou. A poor man's way. Emo...

Understanding logic does not mean you try to control yourself to always act logically. You are human. Trying to act totally logically all the time does not make you perfect. You are HUMAN. You are MESSY. You are not and you never will be "logically perfect". If you try that you will becom...

Pye, the problem with your line of thought for me is that it expresses desire for conscious creation of a 'sense of self' and such constructions but it doesn't address how it is that the feminine not only lacks the capacity but keeps on ending up as the anti-thesis to it. That is: opposing, sabotag...

isn't the main obstacle that of wanting, of desiring? if something hinders you from possessing the grand distraction, isn't it not an obstacle, but instead a warning of some sorts or an aid? but i'm just talking about enlightenment bullshit, as i truly believe that happiness is the only thing one s...

The "smallest" material is really the source of the 'universe' and the source of its growth. The universe seems to be growing into a "second" source that will create its own universe. The membrane would be its 'infinite' potential, but the infinite is invisible... What happens t...

No, I am claiming that there is no such thing as nothing. There is no such thing as zero. Everything is two halves of something else. First the membrane = 1 The membrane split creating two halves of the membrane as new entities, plus the membrane = 3 Those two halves split to create Photon / Electr...

The Universe has an end, but the end it growing outwards, therefore it is infinite until it stops growing. The smallest material is invisible, not sure I can imagine dividing the invisible. It is still invisible when magnified, and is always invisible. Growing outwards into its membrane. Imagine a ...

Purpose is 'feeling good' (Love). All 'searching' is a search for feeling. However you do it, feeling tells you that you got it (real or fabricated).

Doubt is a safety for unknown feeling. Good feeling is knowing, so the uncomfortable is threatening. Face discomfort, or fabricate Love.

It has direction because it is expanding, and imploding is the opposite to expanding. But anyway, yes I do have another substance outside of the Universe, and it is the Universe membrane. Explaining where it came from is easy as it is just a basic thing with no abilities apart from to stretch. cont...
