There are a million and one ways that this Consciousness is described but to me I just see it as a giant pot of stew, an endless infinite stew not in a giant pot but suspended in its own juices, juices that are also coagulated as its illusionary separate parts, its potatoes as planets, its carrots as you and I and all but ONE Stew, now doesn’t that sound yummy ?.

Everything is Consciousness expressing its SELF, even our crappie life, but the deference is you can either live your life the way it always has been or you can drop all this **** and live a life free of this build up of ****, its really your choice, and of course you really don’t have a choice, while you are still under the illusion that this mind body full of **** is you, any decision you make is going to be a crappie decision.

I have to say here, I cannot swallow reincarnation, like what reincarnates ?, the ego, the mind, I also cannot swallow the soul concept, even though i use to believe in all this.

Who are we in essence, what is our true nature, we are the Essence and our true Nature is pure Being, the personality we attach to the mind body through our programming and conditioning is so strong that it completely blocks out the reality of our true Essence, its just a puff of energy arising that we call the ego.

well. i guess if one comes to a state of being incurious then curiosity is no longer a problem. ya know what ya need to know and that's enough for ya. that's not where i am ("i am" being the operative words) since i like my curiosity but if what you believe you know about "pure Being", "reality" and "true Essence" is a done deal for you ... yay for you. congrats!

Thanks IQ, i do really feel like there is nothing else for me to do, that is in the way of spirituality, in fact in a lot of ways i am now peeling off all that i once believed to be true, the so called spiritual stuff was more or less just a show that draws one to it, a lot of spiritual teachers in India do the same, they put on a magic act to draw people to them, humans are very curious creatures and like something different, something mystical, but behind all this show is where the truth is found, not in the show itself.
