Well I called it Ruthless Truth Sentient, however the actual title of the site is 'RuthlessTruth the Arena' ... I have recently become a member there but i sense my time is short-lived lol not sure it is appropriate to leave a link cause it is pretty 'abrasive' in the language department lol ...

well, i suppose i shouldn't protest if folks desire to cease to exist or merge with the Source or whatever. there's far too many humans manifesting anyway.

Anyone who does not speak plainly so that it can be understand, when the whole purpose is to teach it, always makes me think they are covering something with flashy words.

So, the idea is that the person who we are now it an illusion/projection of the 'real self' and knowning this brings instant enlightment?

i keep wondering why the "the true self" can't project a true self image. why does a self image projection have to be an "illusion"?

What they are saying is that there is no self, that the idea of self is the lie, there is no projection or image of some latent true self there simply is NO self

Yeah, I have often wondered that too and to 'be' consciously aware of It 'to boot' ... a real illusion perhaps lol if we insist on calling 'this' reality illusion ...

The reality of being is evident, the idea of what that presence of being is is assumed.
This then leads to ideas of a soul etc, because beyond the body-mind identity which will eventually perish one's notion/knowing of self is obscure.
