I already knew the answer..But i want to see if you wise enough to realise it or not..
P/S : To be honest..The word " I will answer humbly " is came from your Ego where it said you need to be polite because you are a spiritual guy right now..Come on dude...We all same..Dont need to be formal or something..Dont listen to your Ego buddy...

Whats the meaning of life - with out definition of language- personal "I" and original knowledge or self awareness or subconscious - -But in the idea of the absents of evidence of a plane in absolute zero- // the vibration of "nothingness"- or particles- with out destiny-
God spent an eternity as a point source. His evolution reached a point of change in which he could not bear the loneliness of isolation. His only recourse was to recreate himself throughout an infinitude, thereby initiating a sequence of creating new Gods, new hims, beings to care for him, and for him to care for. He loves us because we ended a loneliness that was beyond any ability to describe in words.
...
Based on my experiences drawn from this session, life exists because God wanted to create life. God’s motivation was to end his own loneliness.
The sense of loneliness that I experienced in this session was the deepest, most penetrating pure sense of the concept that I could ever imagine experiencing. Moreover, the joy that God experienced when he created time, physical matter, and us, was similarly the purest, and most wonderful joy that could ever be.

No one can or will experience 'oneness' because when it happens the person is realized to not be (one is liberated from the 'person'). If there was 'someone' experiencing it then that would be 'someone' experiencing a 'something' called oneness and that would still be duality.
When the rapture happens - the person is carried away.
This has nothing to do with Rapture. The only duality is a 50/50 relationship in which God occupies the body with the human. It is possible and I know this as fact. No oneness is experienced and the dialoge is continuous (at times angrily).
When 'oneness' is realized - nothing remains but God.
Nothing is separate.
Duality is seen to be illusionary.
If the dialogue is continuous for you then you have not found peace or freedom.edit on 23-3-2013 by Itisnowagain because: (no reason given)
Actually, everything but Zeroness is illusory. True peace and freedom will not be attained until nothingness is realized.
Yes- God is nothing!
Nothing is appearing as this. This is nothing happening. Emptiness is form - form is emptiness.
Isn't it wonderful? Isn't it amazing?

I wouldn't go as far as calling God "Nothing". At least not yet until I decide to be an atheist. From that point, I should erase "God" from my vocabulary, Names and labels can only be ascribed to things that exist. Understanding this, :
Nothing can never appear as anything. Once one says, "nothing appears as this", it is implied it was never nothingness in the first place, but a mere illusion of nothingness.
Likewise, emptiness can never appear as a form. Once one says, "Emptiness is form", it is implied it was never emptiness to begin with, but a mere illusion of emptiness.
The mind can be quite manipulative...or manipulated, can't they? But in the end, logic still has to prevail.

When the two become one the kingdom shall be revealed. Well, thats one theory of AFTER death or the 3d gross matter experience (oneness) ENDING; but you realize what a process this entails to actually rejoin Origin, thousands of earthtime linear years, hundreds of lifetimes comprising your soul group. Any human in body is separate from God. God is not in body (not admitting to it as yet or talking at all). However, can you NOT say some random soul has found/experienced a peice of 'the' kingdom/nirvana on this planet. There was one that some say experienced duality to its fullest and played it out for the world to see (very famous this suicidal Rock Star). I live in duality with my creator (we argue occasionally violently and it generally involves moral conflicts of all things). You cannot tell me about my personal experiences you have not come close to attempting oneness; and if you think all will be resolved/reveiled at death you are mistaken. The profundity has to occure while in BODY.edit on 23-3-2013 by vethumanbeing because: (no reason given)

Oneness does not need to be experienced. It can only be given attributes, described, personified, etc...
Yet oneness is not something you achieve - it merely IS. Behind every thing that you can feel, see, touch, is the same consciousness. This consciousness that is you, and I, is the focus of awareness from infinity. It is merely the focus of awareness that is consciousness and its potential to become, by way of distorting itself, is infinite.

All is merely the extension of an original thought. The Original Thought that came from I AM was Free Will or the experience of many-ness. It was the first focus thus it is the first distortion which put into effect all distortions.
The first distortion, Free Will, gave rise to endless focuses, each an extension of Free Will, and each focus can be considered stepped down, and extended, versions of The Word (as from the Bible) or Love. The use of Free Will yields Love, it is Love, and it is truly the essence of all things. You may think of Love as the focus. Love is not really an object as the usual Human perception sees it but instead an activity. Behind every action, every thought, every emotion, every heart beat, and every point or focus of every fiber of existence is Love. There is always a focus. The focus itself is Love and the act, out of will, to arrive to that focus is Love.edit on 24-3-2013 by 11118 because: (no reason given)

This is 'unconditional' love. Then words come in and 'condition' what was seen raw. Conditions are placed upon reality by the words - the words divide the whole into the many (the whole is never really divided).
This is presence - nothing ever escapes presence. It is one thing (but it is not a thing because it is non conceptual).
Freewill is an illusion because 'who' could really have freewill when this is happening as one movement? Only thought says 'I did it'. But when searched for can anything separate be found?

I sit in church, an imposter. From the many faces I see all that is right and all that is wrong in the world. Small minded, petty and hateful right beside beautiful, positive and inspiring people. The theater of it all seems so pointless to me, tribalism in every form exists just beneath the surface of almost everyone there. I continue out of the small slivers of usefulness that sometimes come from it. While faith is elusive and religion fails to convince me of much, I feel "something much greater" all around me and have experienced "divine intervention" on more than one occasion for both positive and negative outcomes. Can't help but wonder sometimes if I'm meant to experience this extreme frustration, while only being given small slivers of satisfaction from life itself. I'm kept here for a reason I suppose, yet often it seems only to make me more appreciative of not being me at a different time.
Hope this makes sense, would like to hear your thoughts.

You mention God quite a bit, the bible seems to stress that God doles out punishment quite often doesn't it? Of course anything CAN be viewed as positive or negative but sometimes truly negative things happen, now if they serve another purpose, great, but they are still negative at the time. That's what my question is aimed at.
There's also the possibility that there are dimensions and intelligence between you and God? They could be positive, negative, neutral or nonexistent.

You say it is one theory after death in the first sentence.
And in the last two sentences you tell me this:
"You cannot tell me about my personal experiences you have not come close to attempting oneness; and if you think all will be resolved/reveiled at death you are mistaken. The profundity has to occure while in BODY."
So which is it? In your opinion is it in life (in the body) or after death that onessness happens?
itsnowagain
'Oneness' cannot be 'attempted'. Oneness is the true and real condition always but an 'apparent' division happens. Nothing is ever divided in reality really but the individual just feels apart from the whole until it doesn't..
Funny that you tell me that I have not come close to oneness! How could you or I tell how many lifetimes I have had?
itsnowagain
As I said before, if there is internal conflict there, then there will be external conflict also - not peace and harmony. When there is no internal conflict anymore you will know that the two have become one because there will be harmony everywhere you are. When the two become one the kingdom shall be revealed - heaven on earth. When there is two there will always be conflict so hell on earth is the experience. Life is eternal so waiting until death is not really an option. Hell on earth is the duality of man. Heaven on earth is non duality.

Gods evolution is to my (impure mind& intellect) the idea of the change of the changeless . Perfection should not try to change.
Completeness is lonely, being all, is lonely? The supreme was lonely without being individualized?
He can’t loves us just because we ended his loneliness, as isn’t that a conditioned/ selfish love?
*Then if he experienced the sense of loneliness why would he make us feel the same sense for him( in time) , and let this be a driver to find ourselves?
...
You said “Based on my experiences drawn from this session, life exists because God wanted to create life. God’s motivation was to end his own loneliness.”
Could your experience at the time have been slightly altered by your individual's concepts? If not it is my concepts about God that need to go( as well as my ego).

So you think I should keep my God concepts?( alined to the ideas you mention)
So we both questioned the same statement of God being imperfect or lonely or of supreme Good perfection needing the/a motive (of loneliness) to create.
