The really harsh thing here, and I've seen it in other posts too, is that many assume everything outside their body is not real:
I agree with the lack of judgement part, but they are entirely real. They are you.
I work part time in EMS (ambulance) and we pick up a drunk every now and then. When I am with them and when I look at them I say to myself, "this is me". Yeah that gets rid of the judgement right away, and brings in
(1) consciousness - I have to look at what I'm addicted to (or wanting to be unconscious of) right now
(2) support for self - how can I help me in this moment?
How I treat that drunk is how I treat myself. Am I harsh with myself? Do I tell myself (the drunk) I'll never make it in life? Do I judge or say thank god that's not me?
Single-player is not me and a bunch of zombies, it is all me. Maybe some people missed the "all-me" expansion pack? Or do you think only the avatar is real and anything outside of it isn't?
IMO you can't have single player where you think the 'others' are not real, not self. That defeats the purpose and you will wind up having the society we have today. |
I hear you loud and clear buddy and I don't judge ANYONE anymore, I feel for EVERYONE, I relate with EVERYONE, their pain is mine and mine is theirs. The problem with everyone being me and me being everyone is this leads to lonelyness....I am sitting in a room(which in itself is also me along with everything in it) full of people but the fact is, I am talking to myself...staring at myself, all day everyday... as far as I am concerned nothing exists outside of my field of view if I believe that everyone is me and I am everyone and everything(which I do, cuz I have SEEN and FELT it). It seems like masturbation...but I have hated myself for along time and I have ducked responsibility for along time and I ignored or failed to see the signs my Higher-Self was sending me for SO LONG, but now I am atleast HALF awake and I see plenty of signs and I treat everyone with nothing but love and I love myself but I despise my ego because he is the one tricking me into staying in this subjective reality(but I see where he is coming from too...he doesn't want to disapear and niether do I but I sure want him gone, him and the fear he uses to keep me in this cheap physical realm). This is why hard core SR believers can come to feel lonely but it doesn't stop me from facing the world with pure love.
