Its revealing that the ‘middle class’ is a lie, it doesn’t exist. We’re all poor compared to the super wealthy, even at $350k.
DarkSpectrum@lemmy.worldto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What would life be like if reincarnation was a proven thing and we could remember all our past lives?1·18 days agoThis is a great question which brings ones thoughts close to understanding the very nature of existence.
If you were god, with a singular and all encompassesing consciousness, without any concept of a self seperate to others, then you would be alone, and eventually bored.
So we forget that we are god and variety becomes the spice of life, as ‘they’ say.
You dont’t even have to believe in anything to understand this. Just for a moment, suspend disbelief, and just toy with the idea that you’re god. Little you, capital G. But, so is everyone and everything else around you. In fact, your true self is everything, everywhere, all at once for all time.
If this is true then past lives, future lives, remember them, forsee them, it doesn’t matter. What matters is, you keep going.
As an exercise, try taking a walk around your local store with the idea in your mind that you and everyone around you are inhabited by the same entity. How does it make you feel? Are you there for them or are they there for you? Can you see yourself being seen by yourself?
I believe the closest you one can be to god, is to understand that you are it, without actually having the experience. But this knowledge is what begins to build an enlightened mind and at once this person sees the absurdity of things like war or poverty. However, other things like sexual intercourse become a little unusual.
Ultimately, you want to forget. Many will discard these words as nonsense, reinstate disbelief and carry on with the delusion for many, many lives to no end. But thats ok, for humans are but one avenue of the godly experience.
