Happy 4th of July!!!

Lol... when I meditate my dog is sleeping. But he is pretty quiet. He doesn't interrupt my meditation unless he wants to go out. hehehe... I am meditating now half hour, I began yesterday. I still have to meditate today. I began to notice how others act and why. And I am using that to realize how I manipulate people. I want to stop my unconscious actions, not reactions anymore. I need to have more silence in my mind when I want to react to what other people say or do. It is funny, because when you began to become more conscious, you begin to notice why people react and how they are going to react. And it's like a clock, it doesn't fail. I know I do the same, I just want to keep focused on awareness to just observe how my mind wants me to react to stay silence and don't react. I want to perform non-actions more frequently.

Don't feel sorry or ashamed @Aakash it's all good, just part of the process. Take it easy. Thanks for sharing!!!

There's only the "experience" at that moment without an "experiencer". Nice...

I feel that this is true with a lot of things, like drugs, you really lose the sense of self, same thing with alcohol. That's why so many unconscious people become addicted to those things, without knowing why. IMO.

@bejapuskas hahaha... I don't know if they are selling a lot of those boxes, who knows? Maybe it's a good business idea. The main thing is to give the garbage a back story, like... this piece of paper was found in the corner of 42 st and 7 avenue and bla bla bla... Then you have a story with the product BOOOOM! People want to buy it hahahaha...

@Natasha Ok, I will try that. I did it once when Leo published the video about meditation and I remember it was hard. Not sure if I did it the whole hour Lol... but I remember that I wanted to scratch my nose, my back, Lol... hahaha... I will try it definitely.

@Natasha Cool, I usually do 30 mins. I have to stick to a schedule and do it everyday.

@Natasha I am meditating but not everyday. I do it on weekends and during the week 2 or 3 days in the night, depending on how tired I am after work. I am planning to begin a schedule to meditate everyday. The other thing is that I am all day trying to be focused on awareness, I consider that like being in meditation all the time. Does that count as meditation?

@outlandish I think people here in this forum is more probable that they won't be disturbed by it, because we know that the body is impermanent and we don't care so much what happens to it after death. I wrote the warning just in case there's someone who can be sensible to it. When I was unconscious maybe I could have been disturbed by it. Lol...

These days I feel sadness. Very deep sadness. But I know is not me who is sad, but my character. Not sure why he is sad. Thoughts arise, some say that it is possible because he is knowing that he is going to die, but I feel that this thought is a bit arrogant because is thinking that the ego will be enlightened soon. I am changing thoughts, or different thoughts are arising. Thoughts that are contrary to the negative mood my character is now. Other thing that I am doing more and more frequently is putting my attention on awareness, trying to be more conscious with every act that I do. Doing thing at a slower pace, makes me work more consciously. Being more attentive to details and by doing that I can remember things easier. I am also working on cleaning my thoughts and images I create in my mind. Trying to think positively instead of feeling overwhelmed by reality.

@Natasha

I found another one, I think this one is more explicit. Be careful and again VIEWER DISCRETION ADVISED!

Going deeper I would say there's nothing there...

I see textures and colors @Natasha but I know that textures and colors are concepts too... I have to go deeper.

Here it is, viewer discretion is advised!!!! https://pmdvod.nationalgeographic.com/NG_Video/907/839/VULTURES_OF_TIBET_Disclaimer__025276.mp4

Ok, I will search for it, it was in Reddit... BRB

I found a video about this on reddit, I didn't wanted to post it here because it was very graphic, but this is something that some buddhist do.

There's a guy who sells garbage from different cities, Lol http://nycgarbage.com/ That one is from NY but he sells from LA too hahaha... http://nycgarbage.com/losangeles

I had one experience randomly. I was in control of the dream, it was crazy and the quality of the dream was super real, even more real than reality. After that I began to be curious about Lucid Dreaming but I have to say that I didn't follow very well the Reality Checks and the methods to achieve it more frequently. Anyway I want to have more lucid dreams, so I will be working on it. I let you know if things go well and I can have one with any of those methods. These are some tips for beginners: https://www.reddit.com/r/LucidDreaming/comments/rsvp7/the_three_steps_for_learning_to_lucid_dream/

@Elham Check this reddit thread. I use to read it frequently. It has a lot of useful tips. https://www.reddit.com/r/LucidDreaming/

"Because the Lord disciplines the one he loves" ---- Hebrews 12:6

Not good. I think Shin deserves some kind of punishment, so he learns the lesson for the next time.

Ups, I wasn't invited. I am offended.
