What do you mean "apparent" resistance? There's no such thing as merely apparent resistance. Sounds like some Neo-Advaita stuff. Since there isn't anything actual that can do any real resisting, I'd say that, ultimately, ALL resistance is merely apparent. In truth, the totality can only unfold perfectly.

Right, though I do feel that the fact that it never says "no" may deserve special emphasis and recognition. It can be quite shocking to discover the total absence of resistance at the very heart of all apparent resistance. What do you mean "apparent" resistance? There's no such thing as illusiory resistance. Twue dat.

If not, it means that, fundamentally, resistance is utterly effortless.
When this is seen, it doesn't seem to hurt quite so much.
lol : )

You are resisting people's understandings that don't agree with yours, insisting that "there isn't anything actual".. what is your understanding of the word 'perfectly'?

What is your understanding of the word 'perfectly'? Fundamentally devoid of any everlasting imperfection. you realize that everyone has differing understandings of the meaning of 'perfect', right? and, that your explanation confirms your reliance of duality for your understanding, right?

Either way, the purpose of this thread is simply to point to the effortlessness that constitutes the VAST majority of experience, and that is ultimately seen to utterly permeate all resistance in experience as well.

I use to try to say "yes" to everything and ended up returning hot merchandise back to the store for some crack heads. They asked me and I said yes, hehe I mean if we are all one and part of me ask another part of me why should I say no?

Possibly because you won't be able to say yes or no once your head is being forced into a police cruiser.

Is your attempt to sound profound consistently effortless too? Hehe. There does SEEM to be some effort involved in translating these feelings into easy to follow concepts, yes. I'm pretty sure I'm usually failing at that, too. Ultimately, though, ALL effort begins by being effortlessly allowed. In an attempt to start up an exchange on this, I'd ask you, do you disagree? If you do, why?
