But that would be my ideal life, to be around people who are abiding in pure bliss all day long. I’d love to be around those people wouldn’t you?
The thing about the internet, where all your contact with people is very remote, is that you can say almost anything about yourself, and nobody can prove otherwise. Roy might say that he's blissfully happy, but then he would, wouldn't he? You seem to believe everything he says, whereas I think he's full of crap, so no, I wouldn't want to be like him, or spend any time with him. I have never known anybody who abides in bliss all day long, let alone spent any time with someone like that, so I have no idea what the experience would be like.
Those people whom you could just sit with all day and never have the pressure to say a single word to each other, and still be content, wouldn’t that be wonderful
I'm all for contentment, but I don't think I could achieve it by being with someone like that. I live alone, and I avoid being with people in general, but I often wish I had just one person to be able to talk meaningfully with.
I believe there are people who can abide in bliss all day, people who have transcended the fake and egoic falsity of their...'' hey do you wanna know my thoughts and what I think...'' kind of mentality...I'm more drawn to people who abide in their true self with is thoughtless...just like cats and dogs...notice how cats and dogs abide in pure unconditional loving state, especially when all their basic needs for survival are being met...And that's the same for ourselves, we just need to give to humans what we give to our beloved pets...then we too will live contented lives just like our loved and cared for beloved pet animals.
Knowing full well that 'thoughts' are just what we use to distract us from our true being which is VOID of any thought.
Roy is correct when he says one can master their own mind and be done with 'thought' completely. I agree with him because it's my personal experience also, and so I am able to resonate with his experience.
The only reason I come to this forum is to spread the nondual truth. Which is there is no thought made truth..and that real truth is truthless thoughtfree awareness.
I am choosing to live alone by choice. I honestly believe there is no one out-there whom I could ever share my life with anyway. They would have to be someone like Roy, who would share the same transcendant way of being in the world. But I've never in all my years met that person in the flesh. I've known them online, but I have never met one in physicality up close and personal.
Anyways....I'm choosing solitude, to live alone, and have no interest now to find a partner to live with. It's too late for me now I'm too stuck in my own world of blissful solitude. Beside's I can always talk to people like You and Roy online when ever there is a need or a desire in me to engage in some meaningful conversation with someone else. I would definitely be very choosey who I would speak to online or through email, or even through skype...I'd be very choosy. I wouldn't just talk to any tom dick and harry, or sally that's for sure.
There's one thing I cannot stand though, and that is forced conversation, I prefer to just be in silence and allow words to flow on their own without any pressure to feel like I must say something to avoid any awkward silence.
The last thing I want to hear is someone saying to me...'' are you alright, you are very quiet today, you are not usually this quiet...''...as if being quiet meant there was something wrong with me...this sort of mentality I hate...and is why it is important to me to be in the presence of people like Roy
Funnily enough I share that sort of pure presence with my own Daughter, who is a solo lover. She knew from birth she was going to be alone all her life because that's where she is most at peace..she already knew what life she wanted from birth...so what does that say about the idea of thoughtfree awareness, it says it's inherent in all of us, and some of us even come to earth already knowing they want this experience of bliss, and know what to do to make it happen.
