Helpful Swami Vivekananda Quotes:

Classical philosophical advaita Vedanta

What is this experience?

Who named this experience “my life”? Who created it? God? Who and where is God then? Well the one who calls it “my life” must be the creator of “my life”. Notice how you always at the epicenter of every experience. You cannot prove that experiences exist without you first being aware of them, even if someone told you it happened in the past, you experienced it in the present via them telling you. Now, what about these other people then? Who created them? Well you tell me, who are they without their bodies and minds, and who are you without your body and mind? Now there is no creation and only ONE ☝️ who was pretending to be many via appearance.

Yes I’m also hitting myself with sticks when I play the drums 😬

So if everything is brahman, and you’re also brahman, does that mean every time you eat, you are actually just eating yourself?

✨cannibalism✨

I once came across a Realitywarpingg post that said “you are God and you are all alone” and I was like “ok cool” but the more LITERALLY I start to take it the more terrifying it is. Why is it that people are so predictable? Why is the world so predictable? Why is it when I dwell on something I don’t like I see more of it and I ignore it it shows up less? Why does the world ALWAYS PROVE ME RIGHT? What’s with all the synchronicities? How can I be mad at people who are playing their roles perfectly whether I like the roles or not? In the beginning I didn’t understand Realitywarpingg but the more I question the more obvious it becomes. I keep imagining other people’s POVs but that is just imagination. MY imagination. 😭 And how do I know they still exist when I can’t see them? It feels insane to say I am all alone but that would also feel insane in a dream that I take to be true.

What do I mean when I say “illusion”?

I’m not saying you are hallucinating as if you were on drugs or you need to stop seeing things, it’s more like one of those drawings where you can see a rabbit or a duck, but in reality it’s just ink.

but what if things i wanna do are not possible in current physical illusion? for eg, i want to have an established business without the hassle of starting it etc.. that puts me in this weird cycle of wanting this “change” in illusion but

wanting means not having, and since we are THAT, everything already is

so im back to trying to know mySelf but then there is no trying and no seeking.. its all a very weird cycle..

please help

Seeking your Self is valid, because if you didn’t seek in the first place you wouldn’t even be here and you would just be like everyone else.

“And I say unto you, Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you.”

- Matthew 7:7 KJV

Seeking is necessary until you find yourself. And Permanent identification with God is necessary to do the works of God, and you can do this by returning again and again until it becomes more “natural” than your human identification. You can’t be the same limited human as always and suddenly have the power to change things.

Hey!

I'm really sorry deep into this that I got lost...

Sometimes I understand everything but then next moment I gave into those doubts 🙂...

But then next moment I read that I'm not even giving in, it's all appearance

So I'm letting these empty appearances doubt myself and always be dependent on others 😭

I don't want to

Don’t take this too seriously or look into it too much all you need to know is that you are Brahman and all “things” are illusions. Doubts, too. Take a break if you need to

You are already invincible, invisible, indescribable, with no life, no personality, no thoughts, and no anxiety.

You see a body, thoughts arise and you call it “me” and “my thoughts” (because people told you it was you) but where is the “me” who is thinking this? What even is a “me”?

(Notice how thoughts cease when you search for the “me” 🫢)

You could say you are the brain but what is keeping the brain alive? There has to be something prior to neuronal activity. Be THAT and throw away the sense of “I” which is the root of all suffering.

I used to think “I” was the highest state, but problems can exist where there is an “I”. If there is no “I” there is no “I have __” or “I am __” that is the start of all trouble 🙄.

It happened again

Idk if y’all care but I want to share another experience. A vein in my hand was hurting for no reason and I look through the pain to find the source. Again there was no source and the pain dissipated. The same goes for emotional pain and thoughts, look for the source and they disappear.

Non-dual rizz be like:

You’re my favorite illusion

You’re my favorite expression of “. “

You’re my everything and nothing
