non_nothing

This is a funny joke. I am 100% sure that there's out there SOMETHING. I used to play this game as a kid even I have not known any words of English. HOURS of HOURS playing with interest. I got depressed like 3 years ago. Had the wallpaper of the loading screen of NOWHERE. Watched this games' gameplay by others on YouTube. It was just something made me relieve while watching this. Now hell this must be a joke or SOMETHING very INTELLIGENTLY designed. NOWHERE -Now we, where the hack am I? -Maybe the person who lives in this castle??, will tell me where I am and how to get out of at here. - (still can't tell some words, maybe you can for me If you're native English, actually I'd very appreciate if you do?) - (The sorcerer): How do you do? My name is Merlin and I am a sorcerer (HE'S EGO) - (Bugs Bunny): Yeah really a sorcerer? Come on let me see your sorcery please? - (The sorcerer): Of course, (Can't get lines)!! (Ego uses his tricks, to make him look something else) - (BB): Good trick good ol moil! Can you do this one? (Throws in the burning question, WHO AM I, HAHAHAH he cannot!) - (BB): THAT GAVE him a hobby but I still (can't get lines) my natural habitat - (BB): Sorry to interrupt this entertaining demonstration but can you tell me where I am? - (TC): It seems like you're lost in time my dear, here it's NO WHERE - (BB): NO WHERE? And do you know how I get back to SOMEWHERE? - (TC): Of course I know (yeah sure ego) - (TC): You must go from one era to another to find symbols like this. They will open you new locations progressively lead you back to present time. - (TC): Alright, listen carefully rabbit... - (BB): Good bye moil.

Thanks. I am not familiar with ox terminology. But I am comfortable being in every stage. My experience had shown me that I am just a basket. Basket that's filled with thoughts and ideas. Source is the life, past and past lives. The person is mostly composed of his/her parents. And unconsciously lives a life of his/her parents, so that his/her parents' parents aka grandparents, this goes infinite and you have infinite lives living inside you. That's what you are as psyche. I am no means know anything about karma but it is a bad luck becasue of the past lives. I guess this might be related to karma thing. But this is my authentic explanation for me. I observed that when you silence the mind, you get the silence, pure awareness. But as a living being in the period of time as now, this has no usage for me. Afterall it is perfectly reasonable to the mind, that we cannot deny the fact that we're a living being in this body. Whatever or however one comes an identification with himself is false. What the Fuuuudge ever. Oneness, infinity, silence, noself, god, person, ego. They're all identities. Even the silence of mind is an experience of awereness. We can boil everything down to the awareness. I will use the "Awareness" as this from know on. The awareness is present in this body right now. It has no use to me if someone tells me that you're everything with this awareness, since I don't know what s/he really mean and I cannot authentically get aware of any other thing except me/this/body. No matter what, I have to use mind and words to express things and write these lines. Don't just throw off me "who writes etc." this is non sense at this point. If you will, I've been meditating for almost 2 years and I've got several personal experiences of no-self, pure awareness. I did not use any psychedelics. The questions I would ask to you is: - What are you thoughts overall of my believes/experiences gained? - What's the point of this after all? If we would say god as an engineer and he tries some stuff, He'd do it without our awareness and run whole giant computer for a second to fetch answers if even he needs somehow lol. So what I am trying to conclude is that there must BE SOMETHING, in this life. ABOUT MEANING. What's your words on this one? For now I don't really have other questions in my mind, Thank you for your time spend on forums. It's apprecaited.

If I ask questions, whom am I asking to?

Well I guess we can make an exception for meditating. Because I've thought for a second beyond courses and this free habit of committing doing meditations everyday for minimum 20 minutes a day (then gradually it's been naturally increased by wish) was the best thing for my life. I'm now at doing 40 minutes bare minimum everyday. My oath is to sit and complete it. People usually fall for quite a while that "I always think during meditation" or "My meditations are not effective". Let me say to YOU. They are effective. Just sit and commit to doing it everyday for the rest of your life. Accept the fallbacks and do it.

If you looked the video and did not take it because it is too long to watch, especially watch this (7:20) for 2 minutes then whether you can choose to watch it from beginning or discard it completely: don't identify yourself as such immature.

Call me stupid if you wish but how did your grandfathers make it till this point then?

What would be a possible fear? Maybe biggest is to forget the information and end up speechless. Nothing bad can happen at the end. My method was to summarize my chunks of information into keywords. For ex. say you have 15 paragraphs. Pick a keyword within each paragraph that would clearly remind you almost everything on that paragraph. You can also draw mind maps rooted on that keyword. Search for mindmap online. Then say you have the following keywords listed: 1- Astrology 2- Human history 3- Dark ages 4- Paganism 5- Tribes 6- Medieval age 7- Economy and industrial revolution 8- World war 9- (well this looks like already something in order lets break this) 9- Tshirts 10- Flat eathers 11- Hackers Now you have 11 keywords representing each paragraph or idea of what you want to talk about. Now what if you had all the keywords in your mind, wouldn't it give you confidence boost and clear state where you can flawlessly speak out words? yeah indeed so we can use the following technique to accomplish this. For each two words, you'll link them together with a story that you've make up. Consider the following: Astrology and human history. I'd think of astrology as study of planet's motion and seeking some fate in it. And human history to be monkeys. (more stupid the story the likelyhood you'll never forget it) Now visualize the following story: Monkeys studying planet's motion and some monkeys launch a gambling company in order to get benefit from planet's motion or whatever. Now the only thing you have to remember from now is the first keyword: Astrology. You do the rest for each two pairs of keywords, next one would be: Human history and Dark ages. I'd think human history as monkeys. I'd consider dark ages where monkeys didn't pay bills so they got electricity shutdowns because of that why they've had their era is labelled dark age. So when you think about astrology you immediately remember monkeys making profit, then after revealing second keyword: monkeys: then you remember that monkeys used to not pay bills so their era is labelled as dark age. Somewhat because of there was no lights in that era paganism had risen because they liked to draw stars and burn up things to bring some light.

At higher level, you want to identify with conflicts of LPC for yourself, maybe that is caused by unsecurity within you that LPC won't serve and do good. You should instead focus on why do you think or want to think in this way. Even that is the case so, throughout the history a lot of things once believed true was changed. And still there're lot of conflicts on science. The popular example is we don't know yet why Einstein's equations work on macro scale and why It doesn't work on quantum scale etc. You see?

Thanks for sharing, didn't know that and was sick of keeping track of tons of emails. This will be useful for my business.

You don't know about security flaws, do you? Anyways I guess It's none of my concerns you being a moderator.

I casted your name on my meditations and I'm sure that now your state of bliss is increased by the truth. May the healing of your insight last long

That link is fishing emails?

DO NITHING

If you taught for 2 hours, then you should do 2 hours. My path of school was for me less or more, but the key was the consistency. You must commit doing it everyday for X time. That being said, within my experience, I started off with silencing my thoughts practice. After a while, I did not scheduled any method of meditation, I totally go random for every session. My meditation types of sessions are listed below: - Counting to infinity (till meditation ends), I count my breaths which basically is around 4 seconds, so whenever i inhale and exhale basically 8 seconds is passed and I remember the number 2. then another inhale i say 3 in my mind, this goes on. I remember counting to 1000 with this method I guess it take couple of hours to accomplish yet not be able to tell/describe how the time just flew off with this method. - Silencing thoughts. I think this is obvious teaching and I won't go in details if you don't know, mention me and I will explain. - Rolling on senses: Basically like a clockwork, I change the focus on the following senses: Eyes (obviously dark screen when eyes closed), Hearing (outside), Feeling (inside/ body, start to scan from feet to head), Imagination (visualize, my method was to visualize pokemons lol really. try to get details in mind) next is hearing, usually I try to hear music especially with no lyrics in my head, -OR- try to let inner voice talk gibberish or let him talk intentionally. Sometimes it goes like this (inner voice) "Yeah now I'm talking and this is my inner voice, this is amazing I control my inner voice bla bla bla" all kind of chatters inside, the next sense is the inner feelings, basically I try to focus on how do I feel at that moment. e.g. feeling peace, feeling calm, feeling the process of getting better with each cycle, feeling depressed maybe?, feeling worried, feeling happy, feeling nothing etc. list goes on. then I complete this whole cycle and start from focusing on eyes (dark scene) - Breathing: Similar to shamanic breathing method Leo described, I also do variations, I find Leo's tempo is a bit fast for this type of meditation at least. Shamanic breathing is a separate exercise on its own. But I've made a variation on that through my meditation sessions. - Letting go of everything: Let ego do what ever he wants to do, extreme cases were for me to dance ? LOL. But just because you read this doesn't mean everytime you stand up and dance. If you get the sense of what I mean, then try this. These all I can remember for the moment. Peace and blessings on your path.

It's not about you but I don't really easily buy into enlightenment with psychedelics or smoking stimulants. It doesn't get a good genuine score on my scale. It's not even about me actually but It is been seen that a lot of "enlightenments" throughout substances are easy to be misconfused and even if it is genuine, It needs work to be stay permanent. Enlightenment can be tricky thing for EGO.

What was the last activity you did? Describe your 1 hour before enlightenment? Describe your last day before enlightenment? Describe your last month before enlightenment? What are your plans now? What're your thoughts about future? What's your vision now? What was the biggest difference you feel right now?

I'd expect you to create it for free. Or might like only 1000 posters allowed to enter from actualized.org another more useful resource to seed in.

First of all thank you for hilarious post caption that made my day. What Nahm tries to say that Nahm has seen the potential. What's a potential difference? As you read these lines you'd prolly saying "Fuck potential differences". It's if you like as you learn from physics class, simple definition is difference between two points. Moving towards from here, opposition occurs. Think of it as if you fall from 2 meters maybe nothing would happen to you but 20 meters difference would be enough to shatter you into pieces. Now after this long explanation of things, the truth is that you've now got a huge potential difference. From the point where you are on now, to the destination point. The greatness of potential difference is that the acceleration comes with it. In the following days or sooner, you'll get to know what I am talking about and you'll be shocked to see how fucking fast you travel in your life experience. Albert einstein would be like: (e = mc squared) You're just a fucking peanut compared to the size of the universe, your sufferings are not exist. Take it or leave it. I'm all in at this point. You don't know who you are. Let me repeat it you dont know who you are I am not just yet another person trying to explain you such no-self bullshit or something. Unless you know who you are, you are not allowed to talk about from "I" does that make sense? yes I bet you're smart enough to understand this proposal of statement since you''re some PhD or something which shows you got higher degree from all the fappers those post here. So none of your conclusions about yourself is true since you don't really know who you are. LOOK. I don't just try to destroy you and leave here because I like to show or prove to myself that I'm just yet another internet knight tries to fullfil his ego or something but, watch this satsang that I'll leave here and it will point out who you are: I think you're smart enough to discover the answer and satisfy the property of any PhD's. So watch the video and see who you are and why there all sufferings of you exist within YOU!

@karkaore Always no problem! You can try watching satsangs as would you watch TV shows. I'd recommend Mooji as his satsangs are very fun to watch actually.

It is not the same. Leo made that video with one note 2010. That being said, newer versions (up to 2016) is okay with working offline copy meanwhile later versions forces you to work from OneDrive which once had drive me nuts and cancers. SO having a PC(windows) I use 2016 nulled despite having original. So I can't give you an authoritative answer for mac but I guess you'll be fine with newer versions since mac is all about ease and cloudy things.

Thanks

Here's some attention for you

When you have spare time, It would be very good for you to watch Mooji's satsangs. It's like TV shows and he's a funny guy to watch actually. It is not boring and I even have fun while watching it. You can find videos on youtube by search if not don't hesitate to PM me for links. I've seen this recommendation is very important for you. I hope a abundant life for you as scientist.

You have some shadows my mate. No look, It is not about me, I'm no greater than you or some like that. it is about you. Spiritual work is discovering who you are in essence. Not anything you put there. You might also want to check the post that I referenced above. Blessings on your path.
