Mara and its relationship to Ultimate Reality

i observed my observance as the universe

err, the universe observed my observance

the universe observed the universe

writing this is blowing my mind

 

I'm sure that was profound ... but it doesn't answer my question. Can you please explain how the statement you quoted in post 4472762 "moved you into a higher state of awareness" ?

it helped me see that i was subconsciously separating my "perception, concepts, ideas, views, and opinions" from the universe

and then i stopped for a short while

sorry this is the best i can do

 

it was my best attempt at the

"explain how the statement previously mentioned 'moved you into a higher states of awareness'"?

 

I find it difficult to imagine how one separates ones perception and concepts
from reality.
In effect it means [to me] you turn them off..
reality is all there is.
What else can imagination/perception focus on but what exists/is real.
fantasy?

Occam

confused

 

Imagination is a tool of creation, so I'd assume you can imagine what you want to manifest/create?

 

Maybe liberation can be attained through simple acts of unconditional love, respect and empathy.

Want to enjoy sex with your partner? go ahead, but dont view your relationship simply as a mechanism to be able to fuck, with no social or conscience reprocusions. Dont just live to fuck. Or whatever strikes your fancy.

Do some yoga, meditate, and when your with some friends, light up a doob, and experience the different outlook on life you attain. This outlook and experience is temporary, and cannot be relied upon as a absolute. But it can certainly give you some insight, and some interesting shit to talk about. Maybe thats the mentality stone age shamans had when ingesting halluconogens.
