It's mind blowing to think about how Reality is infinite and eternal

It's like location without (location). It just keeps going on and on... ... this world...
It's really amazing how Reality actually "works". Wow.

It's like when I said it felt like "the universe became 'stringy'". For me, in my mind, it truly became "stringy".
This is the evidence that you transport into "other worlds".
Why are people not making a bigger deal of this?! I'm confused, are you supposed to keep it a secret?
Maybe I'm delusional, but I don't understand how the mind "works" to enable one to "see" "the ineffable". To me, this is the "million dollar" question challenging our thought on the nature of Self, Reality, and world.

That conflicts what i'm taught.
Every possibility will play outin every way forever. there are 10100,000 possibilities. they all are cycles within cycles. there is one cycle that holds the totality of everything this is the Omnicyclion (the One cycle encompassing all cycles. this is a someting and a someone because its everything and everyone.
call it Multiverse, call it God, all it you or me or

I like this! This is pretty cool. It encompasses all of the "ineffables" together is my interpretation of it, without having dug in yet. As in, each cycle is "ineffable" to one another, but yet they are all still interconnected. That's my interpretation of it? Either way, your book is on my Read Soon list.

"Maybe I'm delusional, but I don't understand how the mind "works" to enable one to "see" "the ineffable". To me, this is the "million dollar" question challenging our thought on the nature of Self, Reality, and world."
I was just considering a version of that. Followed to the conclusion is that It is never absent which many say in various ways. I was thinking then that in every word and thought I have would correctly be to the absolute of That, not just sometimes.
It reminded me of another teaching and I don't remember the source, but that nothing actually relates to other things, but only to the source. The idea is that there is much confusion in figuring causalities in the relative which is fine in that line of thought like with science, but it puts phenomena directly with source.

I'm 31 years old, but, honestly, you're wise beyond your years. Thank you.

"That conflicts what i'm taught."
I'm not seeing the conflict, just curious, with eternal recurrence. No matter what it is, any place we're in, it's just that it will happen again over and over, in some inconceivable time.
It reminds of, what is it, give a hundred chimpanzees a bunch of broken type writer parts, and eventually they will come up with a Shakespearean play. Someone tried an analysis on this in an article, the basis of his calculations who knows, but in coming up with an estimate of how long it may take, there would not be enough time in relation to the estimated age of the known universe. But it, eternal recurrence, can't be considered in just one universe, so may be.
The thing that struck me about the idea of eternal recurrence is the profundity of living in the now knowing that this is our line to repeated over and over again forever. But I can only reconcile it in terms of something like age cycles of Brahma, some inconceivable amount of time to be sitting here again doing this same thing. So after some infinite number of cycles of creation and great dissolution something may be sitting here again just like us.

I think the eternal recurrence means memory.
That everything you do has an imprint forever...
Encoded in the akashic records.
Encoded in dark matter..
The endless procession of the beginning first moment.. ever extending (infinity) to and for eternity. (Dark matter)
-grumbel...

This Living Philosophy talk at about 19:40 shed light for me on eternal recurrence.
Ogres are like onions. In some layers, memories bind. In others, they don't. But here we are in all our alliaceousness.
Ugh, listening to that again on Nietzsche's view is brutal as said. I assume others may believe in eternal recurrence but not like that.

no limits to possiblities or even to the imagination which is a tiny thing within a tiny creature on a tiny planet and there are billions of us...

Even more incredible to recognize this when one understands that Reality is alive and conscious, because we are.

Why does reality exist?
Why does Sat Chit? Ananda!
Or
Sat Chit Ananda! (Plop) (Bliss)
Mama Hridaya Kanja Nivaasaaaaaaaaaaaaaa (Reside in the lotus of my heart)
The verse has been stuck in my head. Mama Hridaya Kanja Nivaasaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa :music:
If I sing to God, reside in the lotus of my heart, I sing it to the universe. I sing it to you. Reside in the lotus of my heart.
Why is existence(Sat) conscious(Chit)? Bliss! (Ananda!) Toss them up, any way will do, put them together and what have you got? (bipiddi bopiddi boo)
Why is existence bliss? Because it's conscious. Why does bliss exist? ^ Why does consciousness exist? Because it's bliss. Why is consciousness bliss? Because it exists.
In a teaching, the dharmakaya I guess, the truth body, encompasses the bliss body, anandakaya, transcends it. Truth body as dharma is boss. What is dharma? Righteousness. What does it mean? Dharma could mean compassion aspect.
