GENIUS FORUMS

Denying worldly things is denying existence. Yes, these don't inherently exist outside perfect consciousness nor do thoughts themselves. The 'infinite' or whatever you want to call it has its consciousness in your body not to sit around and sleep all day but to also experience. It is YOU that is asleep.

I'm saying that being enlightened is being in a dream, just like when you are asleep. When you wake up you're back into the illusory body. Any action from that point is delusional.

I'm saying I'm attached to this physical body and thus this physical world. I've launched into heaven before; I always come back to my body. If you want to be "beyond" illusions all the time you might as well kill yourself.

I'm afraid your thinking on these issues is completely informed by your drug induced altered states episodes. You're formulating your ideas around these, but they have nothing to do with being spiritually awake.

Stay off the drugs and away from altered states for a month, then start thinking again.

yeah?
How're those 'literary endeavors' coming along?

How you uh, how you comin' on that novel you're working on? Huh? Gotta a big, uh, big stack of papers there? Gotta, gotta nice litte story you're working on

there? Your big novel you've been working on for 3 years? Huh? Gotta, gotta compelling protaganist? Yeah? Gotta obstacle for him to overcome? Huh? Gotta

story brewing there? Working on, working on that for quite some time? Huh? (voice getting higher pitched) Yea, talking about that 3 years ago. Been working

on that the whole time? Nice little narrative? Beginning, middle, and end? Some friends become enemies, some enemies become friends? At the end your main

character is richer from the experience? Yeah? Yeah? (voice returns to normal) No, no, you deserve some time off.

LOL - you sound like that baby from Family Guy! :D

but, really--how to be in outerspace all day? most of us don't live in shithole Down Under and suck off the governmental cock

The idea is to know the difference between denying worldly things and understanding the nature of reality. If you do the first, you cannot function. If you do the second, you will function better.

If you are equating the work of meditation or philosophy with being asleep all day, then you do not know this difference.

Well said.
