Unlimited sense of life

Question from the Internet:

“Why are you supposed to not experience every kind of life in your lifetime?”

I am not sure what you mean by “not experiencing every kind of life.”

It is true that we are all very different, and we all feel and experience life according to our own, inherently 100% egocentric, subjective, and individualistic way. And it is also true that as long as we instinctively remain within our own bubbles, we do not even have the chance to truly feel, experience, and understand the lives and experiences of others.

And as it is true to the lives of other people, it is also true to the life and existence of the rest of nature. Basically, by default, we are locked into ourselves.

And this state of “being locked into ourselves” is also the root cause of all our problems, disagreements, conflicts, fights, and crisis situations that are now pushing us towards a global calamity.

At the same time, human beings have the ability to “become interested” in the lives and experiences of others. Even instinctively, we have this interest since this way, we can more effectively and shrewdly exploit, manipulate and control one another. So our original “interest” in others serves our usual self-service and exploitation of others.

But we can further develop and invert this human ability to “be interested” in the lives and experiences of others.

We can learn and practice to feel, sense, and appreciate the thoughts, desires, and viewpoints of others so much, that we would start existing in those thoughts, desires, and viewpoints of others to the point of completely forgetting about ourselves. Through this practical and realistic process, we can be born out of our original selfish, egocentric, and subjective cocoons into a much wider and objective, unlimited, and infinite consciousness and perception of reality.

The more people we can “enter” — in a benevolent, selflessly, and unconditionally serving and loving way — the greater resolution and depth we can learn and experience all available “kinds of lives” until we come to sense and attain all available “kinds of life” in natural reality.

The actual difficulty is not in how many others we can ‘enter” and perceive reality through. The true and practical difficulty is making the decision to escape and exit ourselves, to abandon our inherently and 100% selfish, egocentric, subjective, and individualistic calculations and behavior.

But we can overcome this difficulty with the help of the right, purposeful and practical method in a special environment, where everybody is committed and interested in making the same breakthrough of “escaping themselves” for the sake of truly feeling, appreciating, serving, and loving others.

This way, all members of that environment can make the above breakthrough and together enter that qualitatively much higher collective consciousness and composite perception of reality, that is liberated from any original, subjective, and individualistic limitations like time or space for example.
