Belief in injustice and tragedy ||

[@catchan2308]

Thank you very much Eric. I benefited a lot from your sharing.

[@deniseflores850]

Thanks Eric, so nice meeting with you Sunday!

[@Dmc805]

tky Eric

[@ralf.starke]

So true, thanks! I think some day mankind will delete a lot of senseless words like tragedy from the dictionaries.

The complete quote is; ""The mark of your ignorance is the depth of your belief in injustice and tragedy. What the caterpillar calls the end of the world, the master calls a butterfly." --Richard Bach Eric doesn't know squat about non-duality! No wonder he has so much to say.

[@shirafudee]

why do you think he doesnt know squat? hes like the clearest one i've seen on the subject of nonduality, plain language, not hard to understand, all theoretically consistent

[@nameless-yd6ko]

Justice is Perfect every moment! Mystically, Karma is the momentary (local) reflection of the Absolute Perfection/Balance of the One (ALL-inclusive) Universe (aka 'God', Consciousness/Mind, etc...)! Whatever the moment brings is in perfect accord with the Universe/God, whether comfortable or not. Just accept the moment's Karma with Gratitude and never trouble yourself over Karma again! Acceptance is unconditional Love and Karma is 'God/Universe, etc...'. To accept Karma is to accept 'God', to become One with!

Hi Eric - hypothetical situation: if you had a cockroach infestation, how would you respond? Exterminator? Kill on sight? Attempt to remove without killing?Nothing?

[@NondualityChannel]

Call an exterminator. They multiply too fast and are difficult to remove. As for spiders, I relocate them outside without harming them. I life in Florida, and so I have a bug guy spray my place four times a year just to keep the Palmetto bugs, ants, and such at bay.

can you help me with performance and social anxiety, how do i observe my anxiety so that it diminishes as avoiding it only perpetuates the anxiety

[@NondualityChannel]

Delve into the roots (causes) of anxiety and see the false as false...or delve into the "me" and see that there is no me.

[@tout.est.accord]

If, for example, the place or country where you live is attacked, the feeling of injustice can provide the energy needed to defend yourself. Isn't it then good to resist that attack (the reality)? Or should we do nothing and simply accept our demise?...

[@NondualityChannel]

Just because people find motivation in it does not make it a good thing. Some find hate provides the energy and motivation to act, but it is better to not hate at all. No, resisting is not the ideal way. Instead, it would be like how Aikido would be used in self-defense...you never use force against force in Aikido. You never resist the oncoming force. Furthermore, it is quite possible to defend yourself (say with Aikido) without deeming the attack on you as an injustice. That motivation is not really needed. Never resist reality...you will only suffer for it.

Hey wanted to ask a q... So do the dream characters in sleep dream have their own experiential field of awareness (visual, auditory, thoughts, emotions etc)? How about this waking dream? Do all the characters have their own experiences or is it just one character? Wether that's me or you is a different discussion.

[@NondualityChannel]

All characters have their own experiences....waking or dreaming does not matter.

[@vvv2k12]

@@NondualityChannel dream characters have their own experiences? So does that mean they continue living their lives once the dreamer wakes up?

[@vvv2k12]

So you're saying dream characters have their own being

[@vladm367]

Yes, all characters are played by the same being, all experiences are experienced by the one experiencer. That’s what non duality means. The experience of the dream is real, but the separate or “multiple” experiencers are not.

[@vvv2k12]

@@vladm367 bruh forget everything you've heard/learnt, speak from direct experience only...i'm asking do your dream characters have their own experiences if they do that means they must continue existing/living once you wake up from the dream. So do your dream characters have their own experience?

[@MrBluess1]

Another spiritual bypasser.

[@NondualityChannel]

Not at all.

[@nameless-yd6ko]

A term coined by a psychologist to dis spirituality that answers questions better than his mummery! Source is polluted!

[@MrBluess1]

The wars around the world are just it is what it is.the spiritual bypassing on youtube is very concerning

[@rob_see]

ima go head and call bullshit. if your child was suddenly hit by a car, you wouldnt be sitting there smiling saying "injustice is not real!" come on man

[@rob_see]

@nathanjohnson4299 already listened to it twice, thank you very much. i also shared it on another forum for others to consider in the context of monism vs dualism

[@rob_see]

@nathanjohnson4299 and ultimately i think it exposes a trap of monism, that we would completely dissociate from our bodies' and any human value systems and just believe in some nihilistic trap about how nothing matters because all is one it is what it is the universe doesn't care it just is. i think it's an error that monists have to contend with, and perhaps it means that perhaps dialectical monism is the correct ontological position because it posits mind as fundamental but does not discount the dualistic nature of reality, eg the body is real and physical affects are real and should be accounted, not just hand waved away as illusory.

[@NondualityChannel]

I wouldn't be smiling, but I certainly would not say "this is a tragedy" or "this is injustice." Death is natural and inevitable...I don't have a problem with death or that things come to an end. Everything is impermanent and changing and we have little to no control over how and when things change or end.

[@rob_see]

@@NondualityChannel fair enough, makes sense. why fret when you have no control as it just increases suffering. thanks for clarifying

[@hasansarhan9296]

If people wrestle violent and kill each other is this right

[@NondualityChannel]

It is not a matter of right or wrong...people do and have been doing so for thousands of years.

[@hasansarhan9296]

@@NondualityChannel if they did it for thousands of year is it right to do

[@NondualityChannel]

@@hasansarhan9296 What do you get out of it by deeming it right or wrong? Isn't it also possible just to accept it as it is without making such a judgment?

[@hasansarhan9296]

@@NondualityChannel maybe to point it out as something wrong and should not happen that’s the intent

I think you should read jidu krishnamurti books

Already did.
