Yes I agree with Wolfgang, some of your posts are a little over my head which is not a bad thing but it can be hard for me to understand them. Then again, I am not well versed in the ways of SR so that's probably why. You contribute significant value to the forum though about your beliefs in SR, so you're sort of increasing awareness and in a sense you're being productive. That's 2/2 in the game of Personal Development from what I know.

So Max, are you planning to start your own blog?

Everytime I write here it's always to explain to myself what I'm trying understand.

SR is always a trade off, awesome cosmic power, observed through a very attractive (but limited) physical being

I don't believe we can ever perfectly align ourselves with consciousness 24/7that kind of defeats the purpose of imperfection, this physial reality experience.

Everything created is a self limitation of consciousness, if we didn't self limit our powers on some level, we'd be back at perfection and that's not the point.

As for a blog? Time wise I'm trying to build something that will help us all, so I'll keep posting here until I can't anymore, the forum interaction is probably more stimulating than just writing a blog.

Thanks for the support.

Max

Sounds like a good reason for posting. That it's not to help everybody here, but has that side effect, I'd say.

I know this idea is popular, that we incarnate with deciding to limit ourselves so we can have experience. But is that what it is? Could it be that we are not limited but growing and unfolding and being given opportunities to grow more and become more whole? That it's not that we decided to limit consciousness but are born with potential to grow consciousness. Is a seed a limited consciousness or a bundle of potential? Is a limited consciousness the same as potential?

Self limiting our powers to not be perfect is a popular idea too. But why look at it that way? What is it that makes this true or feel true or be something to try to believe?

There's the idea that whatever is now is perfect, as is, in an unfolding way. It's not limited power it's exactly as it exists and is perfect in the now moment, right?

These two ideas are popular and seem to contradict. On one hand we are supposed to believe we limited our power to enjoy being imperfect, and then we are supposed to believe that everything is perfect as it is now in a unfolding and growing way.

I am tempted to reject that we limit our perfection of ourselves to be here because being in the now is a perfect state. Maybe someone can reconcile the two ideas so I don't have to reject that we limit ourselves.

It is my belief and understanding that The Absolute Consciousness (unseen absolute creative power) is experiencing itself (knowing itself).

If you consider that to see yourself you must look at your reflection (you projected out or objectified in a mirror) (reflect upon yourself), this gives you an understanding of how you appear but you cannot truly know yourself in this way, you can only observe the appearance or the shell of yourself. To truly know yourself (experience yourself within the reflection), you must enter into that reflection and look back at yourself, interact, observe and experience it.

Physical manifestation or Objective Consciousness is the reflection of the Absolute Consciousness, and the absolute has entered into every part (the separation) of that reflection & each part of consciousness is experiencing every other part. It can know itself by experiencing what it is not, and in that way better understand what it is.

Consciousness consumes itself, and in so doing grows and expands until the reflection will become one with the Absolute and integrate.

There is truly only one reflection (SR), but it seen objectively from within the reflection (from the manifest objective reality) as seperated (ego identies).

Just as we work to know ourselves and integrate ego with consciousness on this level of form to grow and develop on a personal level, so does the Absolute Creator imbed itself within the objective consciousness to know itself, expand, and eventually integrate.

Yes, as it's perfect, it's experiencing imperfection (human avatar/physical reality) to know itself.

Yes! I see the shell, but it's like I can see the shell of my avatar inside and out, mirror and not, but the mirror can show me the overall shell, consciousness, the container as well, it's a cunning perception!

We must know we are consciousness first and human avatar is a product of that, the other way around, is very limiting.

Again, consciousness is desiring the experience of everything it is not, so it actually what's to know itself through the manifestation of something it is not. To manifest is to know consciousness (you) better.

Yes, as it grows or alludes to grow, it is self consuming as it knows and enjoys itself as itself. The ultimate cunning perception/illusion to be everyone, but only one thing.

Yes! All consciousness is really doing is travelling back to perfection, it's a cirlce and along the way it fully understands itself as it creates and consumes itself.

TL, You description here is very indepth and extremely articulate, I took the liberty to comment and dumb it down so I could grasp it

Well said!

Max
