moke: I've come to the conclusion that the infinite is too much for the mind to grasp.... I don't need to know in my mind or grasp something that is not graspable. I just need to be.

ha ha... yes, of course

The mind that seems so big and so clever is recognized as tiny and easily fooled once we experience the infinite presence of being. The mind is just a practical tool really... not something to know the Truth with.


Any specific ways of getting to no-mind for you?

Here's a hint: The mind is noisy... no-mind is quiet.

Look for the silent open space within and all around you.

The Now. That's all. My sense of Time goes away when I'm in the Now. The mind only knows Time. It lives in time. I see what your saying. That Could be overwealming definitely. I think if it happened if I was in my body it would not be. In the mind, different story. Maybe it could hit you like a ton of bricks, but it all makes sense. Like stories of peoples lives flashing before their eyes with near death experiences. If time is an illusion, then it would not be overwelming, because "time" is what causes stress, anxiety. When it all happens at once "without time." Time exists in the mind, not Being. But if your "Being" it wouldn't cause any stress or overwealming feeling whatsoever. In my opinion.
