I highly recommend 'the way of the superior man' for your case. I used to have similar mindset.

@joeyi99 there is no difference. there are various types of meditation and concentrative meditation is one of them. the cool thing is that the concentration you develop by concentrative meditation can be extremely helpful to do other kinds of meditation effectively, like Leo says in his video. I personally use concentrative meditation as main practice. read https://www.amazon.com/Million-Thoughts-Meditation-Himalayan-Mystic/dp/8184959451 if you want to go more in depth in that.

Working my way to financial independence I made a strong commitment to get seriously into business, specifically internet marketing. I think the experience that you get from being an entrepreneur will help me after with my life purpose. not to mention the other freedoms you'll get for running a business. tell me if I'm wrong. noticed that many of you here are into business too, since I'm still in the dark about how all of these works I was wandering if you know any good resources out there. Any advice would be appreciated

@MIA.RIVEL thanks coach

@Krzysztof I couldn't be more grateful.. I was looking for something like this the whole week, thank god I made this post and you seen it. @Juan Cruz Giusto Yeah, this is the process of growing in general I think, thanks mate !

Check this channel. You will find anything you need to know.

What is the difference between journaling and contemplation ? What are some ways to make journaling effective ?

Hmm interesting.. Is just that Leo said that it is one of the most powerful techniques he has discovered, and I was wandering If he is referring to one particular technique or *journaling* in general

or in some formlessness

source : http://omswami.com/2015/01/types-of-meditator.html you should read his book a million thoughts. my practice is going great after reading this book. he mentions a lot about types of meditation, posture, attention, do and dont's and how serious you should be about it. he is a master

I made a similar post these days.. I'm currently doing meditation on formless which it seems to be the same as self inquiry. I just concentrate on void and I observe it. I cant tell the difference really.. what confuses me though is that Leo told that meditation isn't so trustable to awaken.

thank ya all for your responses. Through self experimentation I think they are the same. But of course there is more to find.

recently I read a million thoughts by Om swami. one of the techniques he is referring to Is meditation on formlessness or the void which is a concentrative meditation technique and which Im currently practising, (extremely hard). self inquiry as Leo describes it in the latest video is very similar and almost the same as swami's meditation on formlessness (with a great deal of mental exertion and relaxation you just stay in a state of thoughtlessness (void) ). Leo said; keeping your attention on the formless as long as you can. it's kind of hard for me to find the difference between them. is there any ? am I self-inquiring or am I meditating ? @Leo Gura can you enlightened me ? I know you know the technique I'm talking about.

I used to have this struggle a lot. I came to the conclusion that whatever happens, find my life purpose or not, reach enlightenment or not even close, I know I give my best shot here. Since you are giving your best to make it happen whatever happens you didn't let your life slip through you fingers. For me a life wasted is not on your achievements, but on your approach. Die knowing I gave it all is my ultimate vision, not to achieve everything, even though this is what I'm striving for. And this gave me the patience and the faith to work

yea I see. but I can't see the difference between concentrate on emptiness, and holding to the emptiness. I feel like I do the same when Im meditating.

The year of bullshit. To much resistance, security and fake growth. Hope 2019 will be better

since books is very important to move you into SD stage yellow, by take in many diverse perspectives, but also embody teaching to improve your life, how to know that you actually take full advantage of a self help book, and you are not just mental masturbating?

thanks a lot !

since books is very important to move you into SD stage yellow, by take in many diverse perspectives, but also embody teaching to improve your life, how to know that you actually take full advantage of a self help book, and you are not just mental masturbating? what kind of expectations you should have from your self while studying a book. how to approach studying ? Im newbie in reading books and I just want your opinions of potential traps which I could avoid. (sry for my 'English )

Whats your thoughts on this ?

Thank you. I had a great insight about my Life Purpose, Career and Entrepreneurship.

I'm currently reading a million thoughts by Om Swami. I'm personally interested in a technique that is been referred in the book which the object of meditation is the sound of the breath. my question is; can you focus on a sound (example breath) when there are louder sounds around you (example cars passing) the sounds are not distracting, but I feel like they are overpower the sound of breath, I can barely hear my breath when cars passes. how can I concentrate in something that is not clear Do I need to look for another technique which doesn't need hearing, or do I need to build more concentration?

After a lot of research Im on the point that I can consider my self as passionless (for now). But I can say with certainty that I'm not on the point of giving up, right now Im taking a break to take care of some other stuff in my life. but I am committed to give my best to find a passion of mine (and also escaping wage slavery, Maze etc.) Anyway, this post is mostly to get some opinions for some symptoms I have Symptoms: whenever I get the opportunity to talk about Personal Development with someone, I'm getting fuelled with energy (even when I'm dead tired), its like a sense of confidence entering my body, in fact the energy I get is so strong, that my body is getting shakes, (it might sound strange but this kind of shaking I get when Im getting through very very strong emotions, rarely), of course communication skills are getting boosted and I'm speaking pretty well about this stuff. I like it. I'm not asking you to tell me what my passion is, as I said I'm mostly curious about understanding why this is happening to me. a thought of mine is maybe because Im engaged with this suff, and I don't get everyday the opportunity to speak about this, I'm getting excited when I do. what do you think about this? have you ever had any similar symptoms for something? is this the flow state that everyone is talking about? is this a clue of some short of passion maybe?

i just want to make sure that you guys create your own visions im not here to critisize anyone. the world can be improved in many different ways btw.

damn.. this course has made too many gurus
