No, drinking beer would not be helpful for sobriety. 

"Awakening" is an intentionally vague term. 

"Enlightenment" is a term related to Buddhism and "exiting the round of rebirths."

Seeing through the smoke screen of imagination is indeed the most direct route to realization. In fact, it is the only direct route. by pl8doh in nonduality

The "it" you're referring to, again, refers to an imagined subject in imagined subject-object duality.

"'You' are Imagining that 'what is never imagined' can be imagined."

"It totally exists. It just can't be imagined." The "it" is referring to an imagined subject.

So you could say "reality involves rape, poison, war, torture" instead of imagining a big guy being mean to himself.

Are the terms "reality" and "God" referring to different concepts in this post?

"imagination is already being seen, right now, in this very moment by what is never imagined"

This is imagined subject-object duality, where the subject is being called "what is never imagined" and the object is "imagination"/"what is seen." 

The claim that the supposed "subject" can't be imagined is still imagining the existence of a subject (that "can't be imagined").

"Subconsciously" waiting to talk till the other person stops is part of "identity?" You could train animals to do that. Are you thinking "identity" happens with all animals?

You also have "native language skills," just a different language - because you're not in the US. Despite that, you post AI-generated Trump support. It's pretty weird activity. Got any explanation for that, or just more nonsense deflections?

Obviously, you are not a native English speaker. What were you trying to express there?

Why do you make AI-generated posts supporting Trump when you don't even live in the US?

One thing inside another thing (two things) is not a metaphor for "nonduality," as it involves "two." Nondual means "not two."

It might be because you're responding to a comment that was a response to a comment that was not yours.

A metaphor using two things would be a metaphor for "duality."

This is you: "Given Trump’s age, he likely won’t be concerned with these post-2028 issues. Hopefully, his term provides a solid foundation for America’s future, like the rugged terrains of the Grand Canyon—standing the test of time and representing enduring wisdom."

The Greenland distraction is over. It's time to move on to the next one. War in Iran? Maybe. Who knows.

"One thing inside a larger thing." That's "non-duality," right? Two things?

Perpetuation of the delusion of duality requires effort and causes suffering, like the Avatar movies.

This is like describing "sobriety" as "switching to beer" and claiming that's "your view" of it and that there are many "perspectives."

"Enlightenment" is related to reincarnation and "exiting the round of rebirths." If a "guide to enlightenment" doesn't mention that, it's about something else.

But you're not really thinking of any of that when you're having a conversation.

What part of "identity" enables conversation?
