Hencely, personal and impersonal. One consciousness is creating and perceiving, So I don't want to separate this as impersonal and personal. Impersonal itself is the actor! You may not want to separate consciousness into aspects of personal and impersonal, but if you're going to talk about how creation comes about, you may have to. The individual is not the totality of consciousness.

Theo is angry about spiritual teachings that have failed him, and he's taken a cynical approach to all of it, which is fine as long as there is there is still the openness to the truth. If the truth is of no importance to him, that's a deal breaker in terms of discussion. yeah, I sense the same ! But I don't mistake him because I was there once! You mean blame him? If so, yes, let's not blame him.

I'm sure his vows will make it clear that he is the Ruler and his wife is there to play a role for him. Ruler! Ruler! Ruler! Please let us know how that works out for you. Maybe you can train a hawk to bring messages down from the mountain to civilization.

IN THE BIGGEST picture... on another site just recently I saw this post by a person which maybe male in gender, with hawk-like visionary powers.
"Consciousness expansion herbs are classified as felonious possessions. That is because those who want to keep us dumbed down are in charge of the US government. Dumbed down hypnotized Amerikkkans love their beer and pretzels as long as they have the spending money for it; but meth is becoming a bit more popular. The breaking point will be when the price of pretzels and beer exceed one's income. Then all hell will break loose."
Been reading up on DMT and that alone is blowing my mind; it having been used for centuries... It amazes me how natural beings intuit from nature; its as though our society have been ushered away from the heart, possibly enticed away by greed with the promise of Power, bombs,guns, submarines and here in Australia.... JOBS an GROWTH.
holy, at last I have found the way to enlarge my text. You may relax Gopal.

Your explanation of enigma's belief is pure storytelling. There's nothing experiential in this. Where do I go wrong? You are perceiving,right? You have identified yourself as person,right? Yes.

Do you really? If so, I'm genuinely surprised and glad. The personal aspect never disappears despite many non dualists favouring the impersonal over the personal and being attracted to the idea in a very "personal" way. Thank you.

It's not that clear-cut. Anyway, who -really- cares about the truth? There's nothing more irrelevant than the truth.That's false. "The truth shall set you free". How so?

Your explanation of enigma's belief is pure storytelling. There's nothing experiential in this. You can't trust your experience. Most of it is illusion. No. None of it is an illusion. Most of it is filtered through sensing, but that doesn't make it an illusion, that just makes it non-accurate. Besides, there is nothing else other than experience.

So, we are not to confidently admonish human for his troubles, are we? His troubles are not his fault. Problem solved then. Nothing to see here!

Okay then. Now, since we've established all that is, and our wisdom is through the roof. Could that epiphany improve my personal life in any way? If it helps you to let go of your judgment, definitely. First off, why should I let go of my judgment? Second off, how does that work?
