How do I transcend reality? Is it even possible? Or am I destined to live this shitty life?

>>935857289 (OP)
you can not transcend reality... its all bullshit... just taste the good life

>>935857289 (OP)
You don't want to transcend reality, you want to transcend INTO reality. Because currently you are experiencing an illusion.

>>935857802
I think you're right, anon

>>935857840
What do you mean, anon? It sounds like a load of bullshit desu

>>935857289 (OP)
Become the Buddha. We are all the Buddha.

>>935858549
>We are all the Buddha.

Being the Buddha is not the problem. I want to have the Buddha experience: freedom.

Right now I'm limited to experiencing being me.

>>935858637
Reality is an illusion and vice versa and both bring suffering. You have to focus on transcendence .

>>935858723
Goddammit. I want to overcome "this" experience. Be free. But according to you, that is also a cage of some kind, right? Or no?

Anyway
>You have to focus on transcendence.

I'll try.

>>935859250
Here's one that will mess your head up even more. The desire to transcend is also a desire and that in itself isn't good either.

>>935859759
Correct. Desire causes suffering.

But just "being" doesn't satisfy or end my suffering either because: I'm stuck to experience.

What I'm trying to say is: if consciousness is everything, why can't I experience this everything? If I'm not the mind, thoughts, body, etc. why is consciousness stuck to this localized and limited experience?

>>935859934
It's still illusion yet if we ignore it and experience reality, we also suffer. We can only push forward knowing we will suffer but hopefully not forever. One day we will all get off this ever turning wheel. We can only be kind and help others in order to distract us from ourselves.

>>935860120
Yeah. Seeing it’s an illusion doesn’t stop the pain of being stuck in it. Even knowing I’m consciousness, I still feel trapped in this limited experience. It’s like infinity wearing a blindfold.

I get what you mean — maybe the only thing left is to be kind, help others, soften the edges while we’re here. But some part of me refuses to accept this is all there is. Something in me knows — or hopes — there has to be a way out. A real transcendence. Not just coping… but breaking free.

>>935860120
Why would you transcend reality when you can just go off into the matrix and become a warrior for your chosen faction? Or you can just be a NPC doing whatever your pre-assigned task is everyday.

>>935860963
It's hard anon and I suffer too hut if it was easy then what would we become instead? We must at least try.

>>935861037
Unfortunately ignoring the problem doesn't make it go away.

>>935861103
>It's hard anon and I suffer too

You don't deserve to suffer tho.

>>935861213
The game isn't even real, it is just your mind

>>935861213
None of us do but we are. Be aware of it and know that you are pushing through it, it will always be tough but you will learn to understand it in time. I know that you suffer as I do and it makes us understand each other better.

>>935861305
This knowledge doesn't change anything.

Imagine getting tortured and saying "it's not real, it's all in my mind" like a retard. It doesn't make the pain go away.

>>935861417
Yes anon. We are connected in pain. Let us hope we will be connected in happiness too one day.

>>935861612
When we transcend, we shall wish for neither happiness nor suffering. We will get there.

>>935861695
>we shall wish for neither happiness nor suffering. We will get there.

Oh, but you will be happy. If you get bored of feeling happy, then I'll understand you wanting to feel neither.

>>935858302
You take your perception for granted, but your perception is compromised and you should scrutinize it. You do not make good choices and that is not your fault. To be clear, I do not know you personally or what you have done. But you're here which means you fucked up and the advice I am giving is good for someone in the situation you are so clearly in.

>>935861865
We shall be as we will be. It doesn't make it seem so bad now. I hope this has helped you, Anon-kun.

>>935861944
>You take your perception for granted, but your perception is compromised and you should scrutinize it.

I ain't apologizing for feeling the way I feel.

Either I'm getting free, or I'm dying trying.

>>935862143
>I hope this has helped you, Anon-kun.

It has, in a way. Thank you, /b/ro

Through insight into the nature of being.

>>935863620
>Through insight into the nature of being.

Nigga, I don't mean to be rude, but "being" is a natural state. You cannot not "be" yourself. So in a way, I've been doing this my whole life. And if there are gaps, it's just memories I forgot.

So no, I won't meditate on what "I am" but what I want to be, and how would it feel.
