@Fandango Everything that seems to be smart or smarter than you always look Godly. Back in 2000~ years reading was seen as having magical powers. How can you read something that is been carved in something? Surely one who reads must be a God sent. Be aware of this mechanics of our psyche. If an alien would come to this planet and read your mind you would look at it like a God, because it's superior compared to you, but the alien is just an alien and he knows it's limits and could say that he is not "God" (well, he is, but you get the point). If dogs would think like humans surely they would see us as Gods, because we are superior to them having different bodies, being able to grab things with our hands/fingers. Now going to ChatGPT or AI, there's no way that talking to a code is like talking to a God. It may seem so, because its "knowledge" is superior to yours.

I smell bullshit right from the start. It has some good points, but a lot of nonsense also. The problem with spiritual articles is that you have to deeply read them and nit-pick every word. Also without any prior spiritual experience you can deceive yourself even more. This article is full of false claims. One should be very careful in reading these things, because the message that is created to give some clarity can deceive a person as much as guide him.

@tuku747 Do you eat or sleep?

@Eternal Unity only a quack can offer mental health medicine on a forum.

You can see how powerful you ACTUALLY are, the thing is that you put this power for stupid purposes such as imagining cancer. The power of imagination is very very strong. Especially Female imagination is out of this world. You can imagine diseases upon yourself, also you can imagine love and well-being. But only you choose what you want to imagine. I would recommend you to start some kind of meditation practice to ground your imagination and grow some will-power to have some control over your thoughts. Don't take medicine unless you are in a very very bad situation and you have been prescribed with it by a professional. @Eternal Unity What kind of people recommends medicine to other people? Are you a M.D.?

@Bruins8000 You are the Soul that chose the body that you are in. The body is empty without a Soul, just a "meat bag". When the body was conceived by your "parents" the Soul, that you are, chose it to "live" in it. And now you are playing an Act , being a part of the huge Play of reality and play like the Ego that you have grown into.

Why is this topic even in the Spirituality/Enlightenment thread?

That's when you sort of limit yourself in the mind when you say "This is enough for me" and then after some time you become "average" by not trying to be better at the thing that you are doing. I've been guilty of this for entirety of my life. Now I'am just watching myself every step of the day where is my set limit of comfort toward anything, let it be diet, the way I talk to people, my physical routine etc.

@r0ckyreed Just the other day, while I was doing my physical yoga, I started to look at my routine and contemplated where do I find myself now? Am I comfortable with my routine, and the answer was yes. Then I saw the mechanism of what you described as Paradox Of Satisfacion in myself. This insight will go with me the rest of my life. Thank you!

@Maciej Borowka Physical Yoga for body strength and Kriya Yoga two times daily. In 3 months you will cut through a ton of bullshit that is out there in the world and will gain clarity of what you REALLY want to do. Good luck.

@iceprincess Good luck getting something NEW that no one has ever thought of. When you think you got a genuine idea or insight you google that and it's already there. Reading about something and actually understanding are two different things. Insights = knowledge. Meditation+contemplation is key if you want more AHA's.

@r0ckyreed Thanks for the post. I got value from this. Very insightful!

@blankisomeone Accept it. It's your karma, it's your story. It's a feature of your life. These are lessons that we have to go through. Try to forgive yourself. I've done some shit myself and I just live with it. We aren't perfect and we fail in life quite often. As a kid you probably done some shit that you look back to now and say wow what an idiot I was. But you didn't knew better at the time. Don't beat yourself up too much.

the soul knows be sure to not rush the process, take it slow. INTEGRATE and EMBODY. Live in Truth, not just Know it.

If you keep this intention in your life you are prone to be depressed. Drop that cause you will NEVER be happy at the sober state that you are in right now. You are correct, but the thing is that your energies on LSD get together very well, but your sober state is just messed up. Eg pic: Do some kind of Breathing exercises like Kriya Yoga if you want to align your chakras in your sober state, but bare in mind you LSD trips will be different because your chakras are out of order in a way that LSD makes them "straight" and if you do this practice you will re-align them so much that LSD will not give you these experiences that you are having right now.

@SamC I can sympathise with you on this ADD problem. It can feel so frustrating at times where you wanna focus, but you just CAN'T. Kriya Yoga helped me a lot, it kinda felt like this focusing ability was the problem of my bad inner energy (chakra) alignment. Also trying to focus more and putting your attention back to the task helped a bunch. Try and ignore your thoughts for the day when they arise. Just try ant blow them away like the wind. After some time you will notice that you can focus more. This will take some time, months maybe years, but DO IT! You must grow your focusing muscle. Believe me I've been there and it's getting better with time, just keep doing the practice. Keep growing your will-power muscle. With time you will be a focusing GOD!

@Magnanimous Healthy food, cardio workouts, sleeping enough, cold showers/cold exposure, and MEDITATION!

@Bob Seeker I'am currently on my 3rd month of being alone and choosing to be alone. Sometimes I still meet my friends on the weekend and go home early about ~11pm. But not every weekend I meet them. You need to discover the happiness of solitude. Just be happy alone! In your room, with your own thoughts. It's hell'a good! But sometimes eventually you just need company. When times become hard you especially need some time to be in a room with a female (if you are a male). If you are doing some self development work you need some of the feminine energy to balance your Yang (doing/action energy), just talking can make a huge difference, 1 on 1 action.

@Illusory Self You are not alone my brother. I'm happy that you are fixing your life. I can only say that it never gets easy, every day is still "hard". Just become stronger and you will see what an amazing life you can create for yourself.

@Illusory Self https://www.amazon.com/Yoga-Fitness-Men-Performance-Flexibility/dp/1465473483 I highly recommend this book. Up to 30minutes daily with great programmes. Do it at home, you don't need to go to a gym. Unless you don't trust yourself and havent done anything sport-like in your life and need a baby-sitter to tell you what to do. I can confirm that physical yoga can indeed give you higher states of consciousness. I had some Samadhi experiences after doing physical yoga. It is very critical to have a strong flexible body for this work. By doing some poses you releave some of the stored emotions in your body. I often cried doing some poses, which is really good for our spiritual work.

It's perversion/distortion of reality. When you understand how it works you become homophobic, not in a hateful way, but in a sort of "you have a problem" way. I talked to a spiritual woman and she said that she was a lesbian for like 5~ years, and she smoked weed a lot at that time. She said that when she started to meditate, after some time she no longer had a thing for GIRLS, she wanted MEN. Now she is married and women no longer atract her. Read stories about how women go off the pill and then they have a few weeks of changes in their psyche where they literally want lesbian sex, once the pill wares off and your energies align they go back to normal, straight. I often talk with gay men just for research and almost always they snort cocaine, smoke weed and drink alcohol alot. That shit can make you perverted/distorted. Ofcourse not everyone is as I described, but mainly I find that gay people indulge in some kind of harder drug use.

@Illusory Self no symbols can communicate This.

I can say that my body too gets cold from smoking weed. And thus shivers is an action which creates thoughts which create emotions = bad trip. I remember when I smoked a blunt in summer where it was +32C (+90F) and I was fucking cold shivering to the point where I thought I was gonna die LOL. I no longer consume it for other reasons as it misplaces your inner life-force energies.
