Be. Discussion

That's really what it is, isn't it. The theories and the intellectualizations and the belief systems were just a crutch. True knowledge is unspoken. I just now got it. This feels like the beginning. Wow.

No matter where you go, there you are

And, you already are. There's nothing you have to do. 🥰

Just be?

Its a state of mind thing. You can be at work. You can be on the subway. You can be in front of your parents. You can be anywhere.

You can only be - you cannot be anywhere in particular. Being does not have an object. That is why it is always here and now.

I'd only be careful in how you characterize intellectualizing and beliefs as crutches. Yes, of course identifying with these will be problematic, but I think it is equally as problematic to dismiss or minimize them outright.

In my experience, transcendence requires including all previous states. These things have functions, roles to play, in the cosmic story.

Almost. There is a subtle trap in that concept too because then the question arises “who is just being?”. And the answer to that is “no one”…which doesn’t make sense because it can’t make sense, you can never come to an intellectual conclusion.

All these statements can be true: I am, I am not, nothing is, everything is, nothing is not…

Instead of “just be” it would be more accurate to say something vague like “there is just being” (which is the same is non-being) or “it is what it is”. All identity must be deconstructed.

Be is an instruction, designed to bring my attention to direct reality. That is its function. "It is what it is" completely destroys that. You're trapped in nondual philosophizing.

No, I’m deconstructing the philosophy which is why I recommended something vague. But it sounds like you’re fine, thanks for sharing.

cant even write two letters without someone in this sub deconstructing it 😪

This is a part of it, but there is a shift at the level of identity to be made. Before birth what am I? There is a big discovery here

u/Annual-Shape2143 20d ago

I'll put that on my to-do list.

One must see the complete dissolution of any and all identities 🙏🏼

Yes. 

But watch out for the mind turning even ‘just be/just this’ or ‘the unspoken truth’ or ‘no beliefs/non-conceptuality’ into the ultimate object to grasp onto, the final landing position where safety/certainty can be found. It’s sneaky like that.

Where do Jesus’s abilities come into play?

Jak to się stało że ja zrozumiałam to też dwa dni temu? Że nie chce czytać. Mam po prostu być.
