  1. Because Love takes out ego of the equation, and we don't want that... because we think we are an ego... we think there's a me that needs this or that. Love doesn't need anything and it gives everything asking nothing in exchange.
  2. This is not a gif, but is pretty enlightening Lol... nice pic, perfect symmetry.
  3. Maybe after effects? I found this on YouTube... but I didn't watch it yet. I will take a look, seems interesting. :-)
  4. ‘A riot is the language of the unheard’ ------ Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. King
  5. There's a bottle, the bottle is full of air. And there's air all around it. But the bottle thinks, "I am a bottle"... "I am separated from the rest of the world". "There's air inside me"... But suddenly, someone takes the bottle and pushes the air out of it. Now there's no bottle, but there's still air. Air is like consciousness and the bottle is like the body.
  6. The senses are considered one of the 5 sheaths (Koshas) or coverings that hide consciousness, by Vedanta teachings. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kosha
  7. How can it be real if is just a thought? Beause the body is acting crazy and letting thoughts do whatever... does that means is real? If you think the thoughts are real they will be real for the person who is bipolar. But, there's no person... Why the doctor who tries to save him isn't bipolar too? Because he thinks he is a doctor. If he believed he was bipolar, both would be bipolar... Crazy, right?
  8. Lucifer means Light and Faith Note: Checking the origin of the name is Lux (Light) and Ferre (To Bring) in Latin
  9. Congratulations @James123 I am happy for you!!! Ups! There's no "you"!!! Lol
  10. Did you read these exercises @Winny ? They are good... the mind will always reject the idea of no-self. Direct pointing is the way... direct experience and not what the ego-mind says.
  11. How the mind trick us... and an article: "Does the Mind Create the Brain or Does the Brain Create Mind?" https://www.choprafoundation.org/consciousness/does-the-mind-create-the-brain-or-does-the-brain-create-mind/
  12. When you stop paying attention to thoughts and when you stop judging everything is right there.
  13. No, I understand that... fear is what makes all this kind of manifestations and revolts happen. There's fear in both sides, really... I know that, and that's why it is needed an open mind to solve this problems. Because both sides are unhappy for different reasons (and some of them not so different really)... more empathy is needed in my opinion from both sides.
