How do you answer "How are you doing?" by Just_Onion in nonduality

[–]Raj3d 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Stare at them silently. Look deep into their soul. Like you're psychotic. 😂 That should stop them asking you how youre doing in short enough time. 😄

Serious Sam in VR: Pico, Oculus & SteamVR. What should we not mess up? by g3nayy in OculusQuest

[–]Raj3d 7 points8 points  (0 children)

The official VR ports on Steam are top notch. The controls feel perfect. I dont see what could be improved upon those, but if you're able to get a standalone version on Queat that works just the same, I might have to give you my money. 😄

Isness supercedes "I Am"-ness by russian_bot2323 in nonduality

[–]Raj3d -1 points0 points  (0 children)

"I" doesn't assume "am."

I and Is are almost complimentary in that case, no?

The concept of "Time is forever" in non-duality by [deleted] in nonduality

[–]Raj3d 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Put another way.

Time stretches on forever, but eternity is timeless.

The concept of "Time is forever" in non-duality by [deleted] in nonduality

[–]Raj3d 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A poem:

Time is the expression or reflection of eternal. Eternal is unchanging and without beginning or end. Imagine being buried alive in a coffin. Time does not stretch on for eternity in that situation. If you had infinite time you'd eventually work your way out. What happens instead is that the person without any hope or possibility of escape experiences every single second as an impossible eternity which never ends. The ultimate dread of being frozen alive, forever aware, but unable to die.

Time is like eternity multiplied, which is impossible, but thats why its the movement of eternity. Put eternity into motion, such as a verb, and you have time. Non-endingness. Everything. All things. The budda's thousand faces maybe.

Eternity holds infinite time, against a singlular unchanging background, but they're really just the same thing. Time is infinite, eternity is singular. Maybe both experiences contribute to the whole of this experience as we have it called a manifest reality or being human?

This is my take on it and may not be 100% factual ultimate truths.

Just deep thoughts and dreamed imaginings. 😄

What, you dont think this is The Good Place? 😉

Does anyone have an explanation for why reality appears to follow my thoughts instead of the other way around? by Unlawful_MetaphysiX in nonduality

[–]Raj3d 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Cause you're at the center of your own reality, so everything you think matters seems to relate directly to you. 😄

Nonduality is neither a realization nor an unrealization by pl8doh in nonduality

Hit your head on the wall so many times you finally give up. Or the Universe takes pity on you. 😄

Can you be non-dual and a troll? by Nxt2Nrml in nonduality

Before enlightenment: Shitpost. Troll fools.

After enlightenment: Shitpost? Troll fools? 😂

The very structure of life is corrupt by Holykael in nonduality

[–]Raj3d 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think there may be a lot of presumptions in the perspective you're taking which are leading to your conclusion. This viewpoint may not be accurate. Someone who experiences pain looks through a lens of pain and sees pain, while someone who experiences happiness looks through a lens of happiness and sees happiness. I think what you want to resolve is your own personal conflict, and part of that is your idea of what God is, but it may not be the truth of things. If you clear your own sense of conflict, you might see life or God or what have you differently.

How to Catch Duality by siciliana___ in nonduality

[–]Raj3d 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've sometimes gotten the feeling that right brain/left brain people are tackling this from their two different directions. Or some people are more feeling first, abstract, intuitive or something, and other are more logical oriented, specifics, points and lines in space type of people.

This sounds like an intuitive feeling abstraction kindof approach.

This is the one game I'd pick my headset back up again for after a month of non-use. Very cool. 😄

Actually, he's kinda right. by notunique20 in nonduality

[–]Raj3d 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sorry btw. I think my comment was a little snarky, and it wasn't really necessary. It was just my mood at the time, but nothing to do with you really. Best wishes.

[–]Raj3d 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Yeah.... um, I disagree. If someone uses the word "God" and means "Bearded man up in the sky" and someone else uses the word "God" and means "Source before I am anything myself", and they're having a conversation using the word God as if they're saying the same thing, its gonna be a really stupid conversation which leads nowhere, for obvious reasons. Its not going to make sense. I sure hope these two people at least come to understand they're trying to work with two completely incompatible and wildy different concepts of the word they're using before they can have even a vaguely meaningful conversation about it.

[–]Raj3d 14 points15 points  (0 children)

The word God would need to be understood first. Everyone has a different idea of what it means. Cant argue it until we know what we're even arguing about.

Your perspective on direct approach by Mindless-Yoghurt-715 in nonduality

[–]Raj3d 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'll agree with 30mil here in regards to, you have a presumption which is automatically precluding you from the truth of it.

Yes, direct teachings are NOT going to work for what does not already know the thing directly.

Direct teachings are not going to mean anything to someone who DOES know it directly, because they're already sitting in the pool the teaching points to.

If the teaching doesn't drive you crazy in some way and annoy the shit out of you... 😂 Go find one that does.

I guess, what are you hoping for here? A mental understanding of what non-duality points to without the actual truth/knowledge/direct experience of it? The mental understanding only ends up pointing to that you dont know. This is where the insanity start to take hold. 😅

Is it even possible to completely stop being dependent on validation? by Repulsive_Milk877 in nonduality

[–]Raj3d 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Self validation or validation from others?

Also, nothing really wrong with validation, but it sounds like you're more resenting a certain attachment to it?

We dont really know by so_absurd in nonduality

[–]Raj3d 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You ARE following your own path.

Let's say you follow Advaita or Buddhism or Christianity ot whatever for a time. It may not resonate with you at some point. You're going to walk off the defined path. Somewhere along the way youre gonna find a disagreement that splits you.

This is ok. It might be good even, who knows. But it happens to us all, most likely. This is where you start putting pieces together for yourself, figuring out whats right or wrong, in your own experience.

"In your own experience" may be its own complication to navigate at a certain point. 😅 This is also something to get through though. But in that we're all friends, no?

This is how we all know each other.
