  1. Love that meme I knew someone would make that joke
  2. @InfinitePotential I have read power vs force, and believe me, dont waste your time on this unless u just like to sound knowledgeable. I can pretty much assure you there are no levels of consciousness, everyone comes from a unique background and have their own problems. Saying that there are levels of consciousness is like saying there are levels of enlightenment which in turn says that there are levels of Absolute Truth. It's absurd. The basic concept of Power vs Force is great but ignore this power level thing that people put on consciousness.
  3. Wonderful, can I use this in my book by your permission?
  4. Yes Honestly I think most people are just trying to survive, those who try to impact the world only do so using philanthropy. Very less people think about enlightenment let alone being enlightened. As far as being a conscious being is concerned, most people are guided by the blind. The blind leading the blind. One of the biggest things I have recently noticed in people is trying to defend and protect themselves using subtle form of vengeance. Its like acting in reaction to the thing being said. Feeling betrayed is also very common. If someone you put your faith in does something you don't like, you feel like you have been betrayed.
  5. I think most of the reason why people do not turn inward is because most of the society(parents, teachers, friends etc) pushes you towards societal success. There is very rare talk of turning inward. Even when people try to explore themselves, they get stuck at rudimentary self help. A developed society is infinite palace of distraction from exploring the true nature of oneself. Self deception is bound to happen, after all everyone is pursuing societal success, why shouldn't I. Some try to neurotically pursue it or some try to have 'fun' while escaping it. The reinforcement from society about how good you are doing in the world or how bad you are doing is the biggest proponent of self deception. Nobody tells you to find your true nature first and then you can do whatever you want. People live a life of quiet desperation and die, never fully exploring themselves.
  6. Lol if you disagreed, you didn't get what he said
  7. Seven deadly sins Looking outward instead of inward Concentrating on million different things rather than one Searching for Truth and fulfilment in the materialistic world Thinking that duality or plural world has to be true
  8. Patience come from process orientation rather than goal orientation. Thats all.
  9. Yes, thoughts and emotions are part of the dream, the more you become aware that your true nature has nothing to do with contents of the dream, the more you become consciousness itself.
  10. Nice, the less you identify with you small self and realise that You are Truth itself aka the Self, unchanging and boundless, the more you will get these perks Anyway good luck
  11. Making the dream real is illusion, seeing through illusion means getting out of illusion a.k.a waking up from the dream
  12. I post from time to time, not sure about @Shanmugam How are you btw?
  13. @Surfingthewave You cant fall of the spiritual path. Only can distract yourself with endless entertainment.
  14. @Charlotte Yup, everything made out of dreamstuff
  15. @Enquirer A good indicator of realisation of No Self is.. If you ask yourself, Where am I? Who am I? You are experientially nowhere to be found. Its like living existence without a 'you'.
  16. I thought you asked me what I think of enlightenment 25 is pretty old tbh NO, you clearly didnt get what I said. Anyway hopefully you will find out eventually what enlightenment is. As@Faceless said
  17. Out of all things you mentioned Ill stick to No Self. Im not merely speculating what enlightenment is, i know what is. Its called grounded openness to know something and discover things related to it. The paranormal or light stuff he mentioned are still part of the dream and our job is to awaken from the dream. As a i said you are not mentioning anything specific about what he said but just giving me advice based on your ideas of open mindedness.
