As you cover such in-depth topics I thought lucid dreaming would be an important facet to explore also @Leo GuraLeo Do you practice lucid dreaming Leo? Will you create content around this? Thanks

@Leo GuraLeo will you do research and videos on lucid dreaming? According to Charlie Morley lucid dreaming can also lead to awakening and could be just as, if not more effective than psychedelics. I've had a couple of lucid dreams myself and I'm currently using it as a method to awakening, and I can vouch that it's definitely a powerful way to get in direct contact with your psyche.

We are literally in God's dream! In a dream there is no concept of past and future! We need to surrender and let go! Live in the moment for that is where reality truly lies! If we don't surrender, then we remain lost souls constantly seeking our home in a state of dead sleep.

Language is a major barrier when it comes to explaining the nature of being. But we can use no language to explain it. Just live it I laughed in agreement when I read this: "Enough roundabout discussion of what makes a good man. Be one!" Marcus Aurelius - Meditations Thank you. All the best.

“The privilege of a lifetime is being who you are”. Joseph Campbell

Hi Walt, Thank you for taking the time to comment on my comments. I understand your analysis here. I am also aware of my rapture and so I am following it. Exactly has Joseph Campbell stated: If you follow your bliss, you put yourself on a kind of track that has been there all the while, waiting for you, and the life that you ought to be living is the one you are living. Wherever you are -- if you are following your bliss, you are enjoying that refreshment, that life within you, all the time. When I came to this realisation within me, by myself, I experienced eudaimonia. I also realised an intense love for life. And it keeps on growing every day. That is what I am following. In that following, I have made the boldest decisions in which I would have never let my past self even imagine. Self-discovery into the authentic self has no limits. What is the hardest for the mind to grasp is that there is in fact no 'I' and no 'self'. We are in fact a thought experiencing life. Yet when 'my' ego discovered this, it felt liberated and awake, as though veils had been blocking its view to the ultimate truth from the very moment it formed itself. 'My' ego appears very supportive of this path. For that 'I am' grateful.

Really good analysis of emotions! A lot of which many of us can relate to. Keep it going! You never know where this journal will take you

Hi Lifelife! I am liking your goals You will go far! Keep it up!!

Illuminate the world like the sun illuminates our onesong.

We all seek the same thing: HAPPINESS The true essence of happiness is to flourish and gain fulfillment and joy from what you GIVE TO the world as oppose to what you GET FROM the world. Once all of humanity realises this, then the Kingdom of God will awaken within us all. In November 2015 I made a vow that I would find true happiness. From the moment I made this vow, my life has been miraculously unfolding in ways I could have never imagined. Thus I write this journal to share my experiences as I embark on my commitment to life-long learning and a pursuit of self-mastery. I hope to be able to connect with people on this forum in order to disperse further wisdom, love and peace. As I follow the bliss that is within me I become more fearless. I am on a hero's journey and I am ready to fight my internal wars in order to enable me to impact the world with what I can authentically offer to humanity. I have a long way to go, but I will not back down. For growth is an infinite process and fear is an illusion. So bring on the challenge! May peace, love and happiness be with you all! My experiences so far as I awaken: 20th-21st January 2016 - what felt like a high consciousness dream I had a dream. I am not even sure if it was a dream, but from what I could make of it, I was experiencing some sort of emotion. My heart was beating fast, and my body was shaking. It felt like I was having an anxiety attack. My thoughts were all over the place. Then a peaceful voice inside me said: ‘now transcend it’. And at that moment, I felt a deep sense of inner peace and wholeness consume my entire body, both internally and externally. I feel like it was a message. A message telling me that if I face challenges or hardships, I should accept them without judgement. Take responsibility of them and remain awake. Remain aware of my emotions and observe them. And from that awareness I call onto my inner being and transcend these emotions that would normally enslave me. I felt that with this knowledge, I could transcend anything. Has anyone ever experienced something like this before? Physical experience (almost indescribable) I was in my bed, in a light sleep with thoughts fluctuating through my mind. Then something happened to my body. I believe I was laying on my back and all of a sudden I felt what I can only describe as my heart bursting open, causing a sensual blast of warm tranquil blood consume my entire being (es blood). It was as though my heart AND chest were previously confined in shackles of deep confinement, and were now unlocked into their true nature of pure peace. It was as though a strong shining light exploded in my chest. But it didn’t FEEL like an explosion. There was no pain of any sort. Just the feeling of wholesome bliss. Since then. Truths of our existence have been revealing themselves to me, as though pieces of an infinite puzzle are slowly coming together. What’s ever more strange, is that I feel all I am discovering is not new knowledge to me. It feels like I am remembering… 27/01/16 - Realisation that woke me up from my sleep It's hard to explain, but I didn't actually remember my dream. I just woke up randomly at 6am in the morning, turned on my laptop and typed this up: Ego is developed as a mechanism to protect itself. As an adult, the ego is immature. Still like a child in an adult body, refusing responsibility for own decisions and refusing/denies/resists having to deal with the consequences. Believes in an ‘I’. This solid individual. Solid entity. As adults we have an undeveloped ego (some more than others). We need to let the illusionary individual self-die. Rebuild the ego. Resist no longer. Take responsibility and ownership of your past experiences. Forgive yourself and learn to love yourself again. Take the leap and follow your bliss in order to be in alignment with your true being. Take responsibility and deal with the consequences in order to regain power over your life. Has anyone had an awakening experience that woke them up from their sleep before?
