So now what. Just live in this habit of being a human and hope at some point it is seen to have never been? Well I hope that happens or doesn’t happen somehow

Dear Kely:

I appreciate you post, however, one forum rule is a member has their own thread and another member is not to comment on it.

The point is to avoid distractions. Focus on yourself, share your experiences, and I will do my best to point.

Love ya, Jed.

Everything in life is just kind of boring and pointless. I still have a desire for sex for example, but I’m too bored and depressed to be fun or engaged enough to attract anyone. I turn to  non duality when I fail st achieving my desires or I get sick of trying to be a better person as I never seem to achieve any lasting change anyway. My emotions have me blowing around like a leaf on the wind and that’s why I want to see through the dream and end all this chasing stuff. I get most of the non dual stuff intellectually and have a feeling understanding but nothing of the nothingness actually dissolved. I’m a human who knows he isn’t a human still being a human. This is hell

Hahahaha maya is a sucker! She keeps leaving clues lying around. I guess that’s just the way it is. All day I’ve been in a bad mood Because I lost “my awakening”. But I just realised this is also awakening. It’s all one thing even the crappy parts. The way it is is just the way it is. Right now I’m back in human mode and it sucks. So what?! The human isn’t real. And I can’t do anything about it anyway. So this is just what is right now. All good. Bring it on. Still sucks tho (little me says) for who? Who cares?! (Little me says with a hint of the big me)

If you can perceive it then it is an object. If it is an object then that is not you. Because who knows it? You are the must be the one who knows and cannot be perceived. But if I know the knower then that cannot be the knower and the knower of the knower of the knower cannot be the knower. So ummm huh??!!

I stopped. Work and mind happened again. But if I now see that there is a zero ground of knowing of all experience and the knowing seems indifferent to experience and thus peaceful what’s next? Now there seems like a duality of phenomena in the apparent world and the knowing of it. How is this one thing?

You think you know... and that is awareness of a dream... now.. find out who or what is aware of it.

Game Hint: There is no ''you'' require for this.
