@Aaron p Thanks Aaron for sharing!

I got you. Same thing with me. You just have to follow your heart, right now I am more inclined to do meditation than prayer, but sometimes it comes to me and I want to pray a bit. I had really powerful insights and epiphanies asking with prayer. But we have to let our intuition guide us to the best way to know what reality is, we all have different experiences and we will find God (our true self/nature) differently.

@Aakash Cool!

Maybe this can help? The Void As Contemplative Experience http://paulbrunton.org/notebooks/23/8

Ok, got you. Share here if you have other lucid dreams. I am trying but not luck yet.

Could you control parts of the dream? In my case for example, I was on a bus and where I thought the bus should, go it did. I could control the bus with my mind Lol...

I think about it in this way, that's why Jesus washed his disciples feet, he was really washing his feet. Because everything is one, and in a sense it makes more logic, you are praying to yourself. It's like a way to wake up yourself of the dream. What do you think?

I prayed to God asking him to baptize me with the holy spirit and I had a really powerful revelation, like a trip but without anything. It helped me to leave the traditional religious beliefs and search for the truth, really. So, it works IMO.

That's why many wise men and women say not one, not two. Non duality means it's not two, but is not one either. ?

I was always curious about who/what created us and I found a lot of interesting things in Christianity, Buddhism, Hinduism, etc... I began to read books and do meditation and here I am. My biggest challenge is fear.

@Tistepiste Thanks to reading so much stuff and watching Leo's vids Lol

No. Because to have two beings one must have an end where the other begins. So, none of them would be infinite. ☺

@Paul92 Why you don't want to recognize that you are God and that you are the one pulling the strings? What is the difference, if you are pulling the strings anyway?

Ok, really because I did it while I was going to work at the bus I really didn't have the 2 hours to do it, because the trip back home is about one hour. So, I just did it taking the time that I felt Ok to focus on each sentence. Anyway I felt a change in my mood. But I will do it again this weekend or during the week if I have two hours to do it. I think it's more probable that I will be able to do it the 2 full hours on my weekends, weekdays are pretty crazy at work and I am always arriving late at home. I also work from home to complicate things Lol... I let you know when I do the 2 hours complete.

@Ella I did the exercise yesterday while coming back from work. I will do it again today. I really enjoyed it, it really changes you while you say the words if you really are fully conscious or at least trying to be conscious of their meaning and what you really are. There were some of them that I wanted to focus on more than the others, like the #3) I feel the space that contains the whole loving universe When I say it I really felt that the whole space around me was love, and I felt the connection with everything. The #12) I am taking full responsibility for my life - this one made me think about my life, how I need to take responsibility for everything that happens in my life. I am always looking outside me for the reasons some things doesn't work as I expected so I need to pay attention to that. There's more, I will do it again and I will add some more insights, another one that caught more my attention was #55) I am the witness of my thoughts That's the thing that helped me to stay sane mentally right now hehehehe... I will post more things after I do it for a second time! Thanks for sharing them!

@Conrad

@Charlotte I think by definition truth must be everything that exist. If there's something more, something separated from that then everything will include those two things and they won't be everything. Everything is always going to be one by definition. I know is an idea, but I think is a really good pointer. That which includes "everything" must be one thing, there can't be other. Not sure if that helps, is a bit from the materialistic POV but I think it helps to grasp the idea.

@Ella I will try it too... seems very powerful.

Continue with meditation everyday 30 mins. And I am all day trying to focus on awareness more and more. Trying to be more conscious during the whole day. I was checking the stages of spiral dynamics and I realized that I am stage Blue going to Orange. I also have some things from green, but I still can't embrace them. Those ideas are in my thoughts but not in my actions.

Stage Tea Party

hahahaha... I know! I'm being a devil ?

The politic of enlightenment

30 minutes everyday and during the day I try to be the more aware that I can, focusing on awareness as much as I can.
