@Moltenstardeath "I don't know it" . Nothing can be known at the stage of God, rather it must be felt.
On a almost revelation level. Revelation being described by Christians as, massive amount of knowledge flowing into oneself that can't be described. That would be the Christian way. The Buddhist way is meditation.
Both are similar in that, the seekers would study and gain a genuine hunger for learning for God. But arca certain point they had to "know in there hearts" not just there minds.
So as Jesus story he spends 40 nights in the woods, I think there is a very similar Buddha story of 40 night under a bodhi tree.
The point is both had to go beyond study, into a kind of "devotion to truth" with there heart. Basically great intellectual knowledge wasn't the full path.
As for your question how do I know this. Because I've seen it. I walked the intensely intellectual path, and hit that boundary and am more meditational now. But just glimpses of God, or great love. Still am on the path. So Ill readily admit I don't know much of anything. But you also don't know anything, lol.
And my comment was about transcending the barrier of the mind. Scripture talks about one thing, and experiencing what scripture talks about is a different beast.
It's not a dick measuring competition either. I have you crushed there 😆. The point is, know one knows, especially in the pursuit of God at a certain point you must give up knowing and go into feeling.
Intellectually what I've said might have little merit, but then again certain realms of knowledge can't be espoused. BUY MY COURSE NOW@YOURONEANDONLYGURU.
Jokes 😂. The point is, go do a silent retreat by yourself. In search of deep spiritual meaning. Go camping, etc. minimum 4 days. If it's your intention to have a spiritual experience you will and that will show you what I'm talking about. Experience Trump's intellectual understanding. You know reading in a book is different than experiencing a thing.
So for someone with even a inkling of spiritual intrigue. A great idea is to do a retreat, or time alone. It's prescribed in most paths.

25:00 is sooo damn good. It's true, Elon musk literally be ame an x-man. Standing up to tyranny, evoking free speech and coming together with like minded individuals with the same goals.
It's kind of incredible when you see a group of super capable, well meaning individuals come together and pretty much say "fuck it will handle this now". Most of these guys have infinite amounts of money, and don't have to do half the stuff they are doing, on behalf of the public.
JP joining the team, more or less is kind of like the last straw. He's not even American. It's just to good🤌.
Every person in that group, themselfs, would likely make a great president. The world needed a team like that to come together, in the face of all this woke left tyranny. Legitimately.
It's x man, avenger, super hero type stuff.
Edit: would have been nice if brand was added to the x-crew. He's definatly there.

@Ludwig1625 It all depends on your definition of God.
I'll give you a good example.
Can you say that love exists?
Yes, most people will say love exists, even if that was just to a parent. Most have felt love. Yet can you prove it. It's difficult.
God is much the same way as love, people often infact say that is what God is, love itself.
So there we see certain things are but can't quite be proven.
It's like sound and light. We know there are many spectrums of light and sound, and ones we haven't discovered but also know are there.
Spectrums of light that are there but imperceivable to the eye.
God is not a guy sitting on a cloud.
God is that which everything else is contained in. Like the dao.
Or like all numbers exist within the number zero.
You can't prove the number zero, as zero is an absolute. It's an absolute absence of numbers, it's also an absolute totality of numbers, it's both. And in the same way, as zero, God is found in everything and nothing. God is the substrate. There's nothing that is it, and nothing that isn't.
If you want to put your finger on God, your going to have to realize that God is the finger.
