  1. Actually not. Look at a year ago and now the you is that you identify with is completely different. What You are never changes. Not desire. Bodily needs.
  2. For me, sex is body to relax, money is body to overcome from hunger.
  3. Actually, people don't want money. They want happiness but believe that happiness will come through money, sex, drugs etc... But, not happiness, but freedom is what We are. So, actually you know this, therefore you decide.
  4. Even saying there is no you is an identification. Giving up anything and everything, any beliefs, ideas, explanations , experiences.
  5. Your awakening? Good good. @Leo Guraso much misleading.
  6. @VeganAwake @cetus there is no such thing as illusion. Even knowing, what is that mean?
  7. Unbelievable, unbelievable. I love you too my brother.
  8. When you completely surrender anything and everything.
  9. Even being attached to "nobody knows anything", isn't it still knowing?
  10. Psychedelic death or ego death is experiencing of dying. Real death is end of experiencing.
  11. Entire universe born with your birth. Universe wasn't something was exist before you. You learned your birth, birth took place. you learned your body, counrty, family, religion, ethnics, then they all took place. Think now china, china exist, think your mom, mom exist and China is gone. Thinking creates everything, meanwhile there is nothing there in thinking. İf you don't think (not forcibly, but not attached) entire universe dissolves. Living as enlightened being, actually death of universe. When thinking arise, body appears, when it is gone, all is gone. Life is not a constantly burning light, just a blinking light. Comes and goes with attachment or word of attachment. In totally darkness, not even which is You, the life is just a blinking light.
  12. Opinions belongs to who? Ramana is just saying this drop the who seeks or are spiritual.
  13. How many years you are in this path, and haven't you realize that what you wrote above is still assumption and beliefs? When anything and everything surrendered even having a idea to hold on to, self, ego, God, foolish, smart, enlightenment dissolves. And that's what enlightenment is.
  14. First polish the mirror, then drop the polisher or mirror. All is step by step.
  15. There was a man who was enlightened, a Sufi master whom everyone respected deeply. Many people begged him to accept them as his students, but he refused them all. He had no disciples and showed no interest in teaching anyone. One day, however, a man came who would not leave. Day after day, he stood at the master’s door, pleading to be accepted. When his requests were ignored, he slept outside the master’s house. He remained there for days, unmoving, unwavering. At last, the Sufi master opened the door and accepted him as a student. On the very first day, the master said, “This is your duty: you will wear the dress of a seductive woman and walk through the entire town like this, all day long.” The student was shocked and confused. He said, “Master, I thought we would pray, meditate, and practice dhikr.” The master smiled and replied, “No. The path is not about prayer or meditation. The path is about destroying everything that makes you you.”
  16. Yes. But actually, no need to endure. Let it take over.
