I know you'e a good person. You don't lie, am familiar with that.
Give me your example. Am interested in it. I really want to know, and also therefore understand.
First of all pause don't happen so easily. If happened, then one will feel like pausing the game for ever which is = quitting the video game for ever.You said it was a video game. So there'll be a pause function. Quit. Play. Or pause.
OP already says.. your'e so busy in playing -- that you have NO time left to think about that ?Useful whilst you need to do important things. After all, if life is all searching for enlightenment, it gets awkward when you realise you've pooped your pants.
Please choose one of the best example. So that I could know.I'll go against my better judgment and give you three of the better known ones.
- Adi Sankara
- Sri Ramakrishna
- Swami Vivekananda
Now that you are in -- you cannot ask this question -- the only option left is to quit -- or keep on playing.Could I refuse to join the game in the first place?
Please choose one of the best example. So that I could know.
But, for that first you need to quit this current game, thereafter you can request God to make another new game for you to play.Give up the loaded game and play another one with more freedom, more options.
Swami Vivekananda Meditated a lot. He believed in Meditations. Do you ?None of them are a "best example." They all achieved becoming jivanmukta in their lifetime. They are posted in the order they lived. You can Google any of them to learn about them, as all their experiences are well-documented.
Meditation played a very important role in the life and teachings of Swami Vivekananda. He was interested in meditation from his childhood. His master Ramakrishna found him a dhyana-siddha (expert in meditation). On 24 December 1892, Vivekananda reached Kanyakumari and meditated for three days on a large rock and took the resolution to dedicate his life to serve humanity. The event is known as the Kanyakumari resolve of 1892. He reportedly also meditated for a long time on the day of his death (4 July 1902).
Swami Vivekananda Meditated a lot. He believed in Meditations. Do you ?
Yes am asking this.There's nothing to believe in with regard to meditation. It's a thing.
Are you asking me if I believe it helps lead one to Self realization?
The word Jivanmukta is the combination of two words Jivan + Mukta. Which means quitting the cycle of deaths and births. This according me is equal to quitting the video game.Also, you might find this article useful.

What makes you think you understand the game in progress? Perhaps you are playing a mythical game rather than the real one.I know how video games work.
The video game of life is currently going on. How will you beat this game ?
It fits on all aspects of life.What makes you think you understand the game in progress? Perhaps you are playing a mythical game rather than the real one.
Fits as in what? You think one religious belief has such over all others or no religious belief does so? I could no doubt choose any number of games if I was so disposed apart from the obvious one - of survival, for each individual and as a species, and where we hardly get a choice other than ending such.It fits on all aspects of life.
Can you show any area where is does't fits ?
But, for that first you need to quit this current game, thereafter you can request God to make another new game for you to play.
To me religion means re+legion, or re-union with from where we all started the journey of life in the beginning, or say quitting this video game. As soon as one quit, one finds itself in re-union with God, or say find him/herself in God's world.Fits as in what? You think one religious belief has such over all others or no religious belief does so?
I don't understand what you mean by saying this. Can you rephrase adding some more details ?Only if you make the rules up as you go.
Suppose, a long time back we all were the citizen of God's world. God created/started this universe/world because we made this demand for fun sake. We thought it would be fun living/playing in this world, like.. playing a video game.This video game provides us countless -- chances/lifelines/rebirths to continue in the game.
I believe that we have only (2) two options:
I believe that as soon as one quit playing -- one will find him/herself in God's world. Quitting the game sound an easy task, but is NOT that easy. Quitting the game = Quitting all thoughts. Wanna like to give it a try ? Or your'e so busy in playing -- that you have NO time left to think about that ?
- Continue in the game, or
- Quit playing the game.
Or do you think you have any 3rd choice. What / how ?
Kindly note: please do refrain posting in this thread if you don't like to suppose.

But, my friend you are right here chatting with meI Quit the game.
