The “God Perspective” mode, as I call it (which can also be described as viewing from the standpoint of the Dao, God, or Buddha), refers to a state of awareness reached after one has attained enlightenment.
After enlightenment, a new “inner mind” naturally arises. Through this inner mind, one begins to observe the world. As this observation continues over time, the consciousness gradually expands and evolves into the “God Perspective”—a way of perceiving existence from a divine, detached, and all-encompassing viewpoint.
It was only today that I became fully aware of this transformation. Over the past several months, I have been perceiving everything from this elevated perspective. Each day, the feeling becomes clearer—as if I am looking at the world, people, and all things from above, through the eyes of the divine.
Let me describe what this state feels like:
I no longer take the initiative to contact friends or relatives. Emotional bonds such as family affection and friendship have gradually faded. I care less and less about them, and they no longer occupy my thoughts.
When I go outside for a walk and observe people or events around me, I feel entirely detached, as if watching ants on the ground—without judgment, without emotion.
Everything that happens in the world feels unrelated to me. Whether events are true or false, real or illusionary, I neither know nor care. It all feels neutral—empty of emotional response.
Even toward my own body, money, career, and love, I have become increasingly indifferent. My attachment to worldly matters has faded almost completely.
It feels as if my human nature is dissolving. The few remnants of it appear only when I share a meal or a drink with friends, or chat casually with family members—those brief moments remind me of who I used to be. But when I am alone, I observe everything from a much higher plane—watching the world, humanity, and even myself from a detached, transcendent level. This, I define as the “God Perspective” mode.
The “God Perspective” mode is, I believe, an inevitable stage on the path after enlightenment. I hope you will one day reach it as well. For now, I continue walking this path alone, not knowing how long it will take before I meet a fellow traveler who shares this same state of realization.
