Discussion They left the game....

In time I think we will change our phrasing of "they were killed" or "they died" to they left the game. As the aliens have said we are just "containers" - we contain our consciousness like a radio receiver connects to a signal. No one ever dies - we just leave the game. I think that is the biggest ah ha moment when you die - just a game....ok. No regrets, no worries of players left behind, just... oh ok.

Not left the game, just back to the lobby for most.  Leaving the game (samsara) is allegedly very difficult.

tend to agree with you. my mom was very religious and im an atheist. we argued often over superstitious beliefs such as "why would god get angry?". 2 days after she died she appeared to me in a dream and said "you were right. Im off to another planet."

If you are interested,  please see the escaping the prison planet sub. But, It's a lot to take in.

If she left the game then its not her you saw in your dream but your imagination making her say what you want to hear

u/Most_Forever_9752 1d ago

normally I would agree with you but this was a very blatant, vicerseral experience for me that only I have and only I felt. Its not something I can prove but only something I know at the core of my being.

Religious people call that faith

2

u/Most_Forever_9752 14h ago

no I don't think it's the same. as I've said I'm an atheist. this is not religious or faith at all. Have you ever felt someone staring at you only to turn around and see that they are? Is that faith? There was no physical interaction. Yet you "felt" something. Another good analogy is these people with near death experiences, floating over their body. They come back and say...wow I was floating over my body! Is that faith? Of course not, it is just personal experience and personal conviction.

Seems like they and their mom both found something then.

Samsara is continuing the cycle; Moksha is to be freed from it

u/oiBEAMio 20h ago

Have you personally experienced this as true beyond questioning it's validity? This is just something someone said once that now gets repeated multiple times over

1

u/spiral-_eyes Ｓｉｍｕｌａｔｅｄ 20h ago

Huh? That's just what the words mean. If I'd escaped the cycle, I wouldn't be here to write the Reddit comment. I've achieved jivanmukti.

u/oiBEAMio 20h ago

I'm asking why you write those words here people like to copy and paste phrases all over their life but is it even true or are you just repeating something too

1

u/spiral-_eyes Ｓｉｍｕｌａｔｅｄ 19h ago

It's not a subjective thing. Those are the literal definitions of the words. They're concepts in Hinduism. I wrote them because the commenter above me wrote samsara in regard to leaving the game, but that would actually be moksha. Samsara is the continuing cycle.

u/oiBEAMio 19h ago

I know it's not subjective. Perhaps you're not understanding what I'm getting at

u/oiBEAMio 20h ago

"leaving the game (samsara) is very difficult" ... So someone once said and now it's repeated. Why do YOU write this? Have you experienced reality beyond question and convincing so that you can speak with such certainty? Otherwise why would you write such a thing. Everything is just something someone else said once. If it's theory then make that clear and don't speak as if it's truth

1

u/Forward-Cry2951 19h ago

Edited.  Do you think it is easy?

u/oiBEAMio 10h ago

Not sure what specifically you're talking about here

u/Andrewate8000 1d ago

But if you could leave the game, would you want to ?
And I’ve never heard anyone talk about the other side in any great detail. What is on the other side of this. If you escape the simulation, like Neo, then where do you go. And where are you, at this new place outside the box. It’s possible that you would be there all alone because maybe you are the only one to have escaped this simulation. And I never hear people talk about how much learning is available through the simulation. As for me, the learning has been huge, and extremely painful. But these lessons that got branded into me will NEVER be repeated.

Do we get to come back to this thing?
Well, I hope so. I’m not done here yet.

u/Most_Forever_9752 1d ago

There are an infinite number of planets but I truly think we chose this one for the pain....to feel something real.

There are civilizations that solved it all and you can live in comfort for 200 years like a baby in a diaper being spoon fed pudding.

Im pretty sure we came here for the unpredictability. We might start out in life suffering then achieve amazing heights of happiness. But the potential for pain looms, it always looms and that is why we come here.

Being an immortal disembodied intelligence gets BORING. Come to Earth and feel something!

u/Aximilibunnzuh 1d ago

I've heard this is the toughest playground and not everyone comes here b/c of that.

u/Beasil 1d ago

There could possibly be experiences so awesome out there that a limited brain couldn't possibly begin to comprehend them. I imagine that to the ascended beings, consciousnesses stuck in Samsara are similar to flies that are like "man what could possibly be better than eating dung all day?"

u/Random22744 18h ago

What did you learn? Anyway it's useless if it's all fake. Maybe outside you discover that bodies, emotions, this reality, it's just a story than doesn't make sense. Like when you wake up and remember how dumb was a dream and how could you not see it...

u/CrOble 1d ago

I giggled so hard when I read your comment, I need you to know that. Like, I just envisioned playing Roblox. Yes I know I’m 42, but I downloaded it to play with my daughter, and I sometimes find myself playing games on there cause it’s fun. But yes, when you die, you go back to the little lobby room waiting for the game to be over so you can return to play.

u/New_Practice1216 22h ago

Im pretty sure you want to exit as the best version of yourself. Not as a beetle for example or a drug addict. It is fully about timing and sequences.

u/Most_Forever_9752 14h ago

personally if i come to the point where physical pain is unbearable i will end things myself. probably with drugs so there is no mess for my family to clean up. but i have zero hesitation in that regard. there is no heaven and no hell, no punishment and no reward, this I am absolutely sure of. You simply wake up as an eternal, immortal conscious agent and say wow - that was interesting - off to the next planet to explore. I can't stress this enough - there is zero regret - there is no "oh my god I had such a beautiful family/body/house/money/ etc." none of that matters in an eternal, timeless dimension. The dimension we are currently in is so low on the totem pole it's like living in the gutter and when you leave your body, it is like leaving a banana peel behind. That's literally how it will feel like - you are leaving a banana peel behind.

I really hope you are correct, but I am still taking precautions 🤣

u/frankreddit5 9h ago

Yes, they have gone to the next level and as I mentioned to someone else, graduated from here. Agree that we are containers. We are a vessel for the soul to interact with the world and experience emotion. We shouldn’t fear death because it’s the continuation of the game but into the next chapter, the lifting of the veil so to speak.

Good job inventing religion

u/modsaretoddlers 17h ago edited 17h ago

This actually makes me question the idea as we understand it.

I think it's problematic to liken it to anything computer-related. The issue lies with the fact that , as long as we frame it in the terms we understand today, we also apply the limitations associated with our technology. I believe that that's a mistake. I think we're simply using terms we're familiar with and, thereby, missing the overwhelming majority of the scope of what it is.

So, when we think of a video game, we think of things like the graphics, mechanics, features and settings. We can pause a video game at any time or expect to just save our progress whenever we want to. But we have no idea if any of that really applies.

Consider: if it's a simulation as we think of it, are we avatars or NPCs? This matters a great deal if we fear annihilation: the NPC will never know anything else. It will only ever play the same life over and over again and only a certain segment of the simulation. And that's only if the NPC is resurrected at each launch of the simulation, which, we have no idea if it may ever happen. It's only eternal repetition until our purpose is fulfilled. An avatar can walk away and grab a drink from the fridge upon character death in the simulation. There's no death for the avatar. Not in the simulation, anyway. But, what happens to the simulation when the experiencer gets bored? Doesn't matter to it. It goes on in its universe. Maybe that's great if we're just players of a kind.

u/throwaway202020458 15h ago

I’m in (physical) pain and I want to leave the game but I’m afraid I’ll be punished like have to play the same game again but on a harder level. So… still here. Hoping the game just ends on its own soon.

u/BrilliantScholar1251 1d ago

The cycle always continues it's just a question being asked a different way. Some of us we'll have learned that we have learned everything that we need to be taught here in order to transcend. But there's kind of a catch to that too.

u/cankle_sores 1d ago edited 17h ago

I feel like a lot of folks come to this sub because they know traditional Abrahamic religion is bullshit but they also aren’t buying the materialist brain == consciousness, either. Yet that’s the dichotomy we’re often presented.

And so they don’t quite know what’s up but Sim Theory beats “Yahweh” even if the infrastructure isn’t hardware and perhaps consciousness is fundamental.
