For me "the thinker" it really matters, I must cling into something, I must belive in somenthing. I must be searching for something
What  porpouse is to live without an idea to cling into?
Even You had the goal of find the thuth,  and that was your only connection with this world and your reason to live.
My question is:
Should I quit searching for thuth?

Love ya, Jed.

No, Mr McKenna, I cannot quit, I was born to find the truth or die trying
...

I been reading Nisargadatta, and many things he say makes a lot of sense and explains a lot.

He said: "Conciousness can´t  be there without the body".
Also said: "In deep sleep I-am-ness is forgotten, and because it is forgotten, you are completely relaxed and at peace with yourself"
also: "This quality of beingness, the knowledge I am, cannot tolerate itself. It cannot stand itself, alone, just knowing itself. Therefore that Rajoguna is there... it takes the beingness for a ride in various activities so that it not dwell only in itself"

The  Most intriguing to me is the last sentence,
How the only thing that we know for sure "I am",
the only "real thing that exist"  cannot tolerate itself?
 :o :o :o :o

How do you know ''I am''. What informs you that you are. You see, there are two ''I am''s. You have to read Nis's work much deeper than you currently are. But hey, it's a good start.

It's very simple, and for that reason, not very easy. Humans complicate things.

Love ya, Jed.

Now I know that I am conciousness, conceptually is clear to me.
But the implications of that affirmation are so huge.

The universe (including myself) is a dream in that conciousness.
That conciousness that I AM is the only real thing.
everything that i see, hear, touch, think... are dreams in that conciousness.

That implies that if I (ego) dies, then the universe dies, the universe (everything that exist, mountains, persons, animals, the whole world, the whole creation, even God, even I) dissappear because they never existed.

That implies that I AM  the only thing in existence, that I AM alone, that there are no others, even you Mr McKenna are only an imagination in conciousness.

When my body die, there will be no one to cry in my funeral, because there were no me, there were no father and daughters, there were never a house in Bogotá, there were never a man looking for enlightenment, all was a dream.
