You have to start deconstructing all of this. Your mind is labeling you as something ”bad”, stop doing that. Who decided that you ”failed” with the opposite sex? Can you be happy despite your so called ”failures”? If you somehow achieved this opposite sex goal would you be forever happy after that? IE Become conscious of what is really going on. Heroin is the most unconcious a person can get, until they die from it. It wont relieve any suffering it will increase suffering 100x.

Where is your suffering occuring? Find it, is it in the mind? The body? Im not playing around! Find it and see what it is!

That will take us down the path of an infinite regress, whats an atom made of? particles, whats a particle made of? and on we go... the question is what do all these ”materials” have in common.

But then what are eggs made of? Whats an egg when you remove the label of ”egg”? Im genuinely curious, not a trick question.

@Outer Is that baby cow saying ”Mu?”

You cant pump blood through your body. Yet you believe you are the body.

There is nothing to drop?

I have the same conundrum... somebody answer us!

@Rinne Your ass and the chair become one in Samadhi.

You dont know the answer. Start questioning and be honest with yourself that you dont know shit! Then youll become more curious.

So how do we know which reality is true? Is a flies reality less true than mine? A fly certainly has a different reality than mine. Does this mean that the mind creates reality? Because if I take a substance that changes reality it must be because it effects my mind? ??

Can you dream of an egg? Where does the egg come from when youre dreaming? From the brain? Well then then the brain can create whatever it wants obviously? Why cant it create reality out of thin air? Not saying any of this is true. Just proposing an argument.

And of course, youre the sane one arent you? How lucky you are!

The lunaaatic is on the graaaasssss Why did the chicken cross the road? There is no road, you are already enlightened said the Neo-Vedanta teacher.

MY BRIAN HURTS! ok im out hope you find truth and joy wherever it takes you ??bye my dear brain

@Mikael89 Haha, all i have to offer is a garden gnome in a meditation posture, hope thats not too evil. Im not asking you to look at what the brain is from someone elses perspective, you have your own brain, use it to figure out what the brain is.

Asking what something is is circumvention? Youre putting words in my mouth, i never said the brain is an illusion. I asked you to look deeper at what the brain is. ?? Namaste ?

@Mikael89 What is the brain?

Agreed? Yep??

Therefore it is not real, only in the mind. When you say, i am not the body, who decides that? when you say i am the body, who decides that? Contemplate this deeply if you will.

1 hour and 10 mins of Strong Determination Sitting But it doesnt matter how long it is, I get more peace from 10 mins of deep meditation than 1 hour of pure monkeymind. Better to just be regular about it than to try reach some Guinness Sage Record.

@Outer ”Im” prompted to go into deeper looking. Thanks Outer!
