Is anything important? everything important?

If everything is the same, why is there diversity or the appearance of diversity?

If everything is the same on a deep level, why don't we all just experience that? What is so great about the world of forms? What is so intolerable about the bliss state of God that we all decided we needed to experience this (life/the universe)?

How can I find love? What is blocking me from love (fear?)?

What is meant by the "world of illusions" or "the world is an illusion/the universe is maya"?

Why so many questions? Why not just ask one as the OP suggested. "Ask me a question?"

How do I practice that? (I'll google some information on it but I would enjoy your take on it)

There are many resources for self-hypnosis, but I suggest these two easy, and fast methods:

They both work well.

I did ask a question.
then another.
then another. lol

and I asked because I was asked to ask.
these questions are for the OPs enjoyment as much as my own.

it's fun to be in the state of consciousness that can answer anything. but usually that state has no desire for something to be answered. It's like he can answer anything, but doesn't have a desire to answer any question. at least not for him/herself, but out of compassion (and other things) they will answer questions for those who ask. The OP is in the state of consciousness that is beyond the mind and they are offering us their services.

in other words it's like the OP is in a state of infinite potentiality but lacks direction. I'm not in a state of high potentiality, but I do have direction. so together we make a kind of team effort.

All those questions and others were answered by Seth, channeled by Jane Roberts. You can find a collection of Seth quotes here:

It is a fascinating read.

I read several books about hypnosis, and successfully use self-hypnosis to get answers, and for regression / progression.

All authors claim that hypnosis is totally harmless. Seth (I recommended his teachings) also recommends self-hypnosis for a variety of exercises for acquiring knowledge and development of the self.

Not sure how many, but the link is for a 200+ page anthology of quotes and exercises. I found it extremely interesting.

can you provide a link to something I could read about seth?

the quotes are pretty epic but it's 249 pages of just quotes. I can only imagine the other literature is like 3,000 pages or more. Is there a website that has them or do you just rent them from a library?
