  1. I am not heartbroken but i always have a tear or two go down my cheek whenever i listen to music?? Why is that? Anybody else experience the same?
  2. To a mind that is still, the whole Universe surrenders. Lao Tzu
  3. 1. Isn't Passion something that arises out of ego? 2. When Buddha set out in search of Enlightenment , Was he not passionate?
  4. What is the relation between age and wisdom ? I think just getting older makes you wise even if you read no books, do not socialize. Do nothing ? I have found this to be true in my life.
  5. @Paul EMD Heard first time about whole body orgasms. Sounds interesting. Any suggestions?
  6. I think everyone should get into meditation and enlightenment stuff after they have overcame some challenging situation like losing weight (if overweight) or some other challenge. Because that gives the understanding of the growth curve. Understanding of growth curve and being patient with respect to it, should be the first step in moving towards self actualization.
  7. @Mary Being raised in an environment like that subconsciously programs you to be indecisive. Not only dating and sexuality. Fear foreshadows most of your activities. And fear if not handled with logic and understanding will show up time after time. That is why " if you are afraid of it, then you must do it". Overcoming your fears is never a waste of time.
  8. @Mary I know how it feels to grow up in an orthodox environment but you will learn a lot by getting into relationship.If you are afraid of it then you must do it.
  9. Nothing real can be threatened. Nothing unreal exists. Herein lies the peace of God. A course in miracles

  11. I just wanted to know ,how people respond to "personalities" more. I thought about an experiment what if Leo Gura creates a fake account and answer queries. Then share what was the response from folks. Do they still make him a master or not?
  12. My advice may not be relevant or useful but since you are only 19, here it is. If one is 25 he/she should have the patience of someone twice his or her age so in this case patience of a 50 years old guy. If you are 50 you should have the patience of a 100 year old. That's my view. Most of the society now a days is about the quick hits. But mastery requires patience and ofcourse dedication also.
  13. My common experience with reality was like, There was a song my mind was playing in my head during meditation. I noticed the mind doing that.When I became intensely present, just like a naughty child when caught suddenly stops. My mind did the same.
  14. Exactly! Life has no purpose,Life in itself is the purpose. This is a state of bliss but the test comes when the Tax Man knocks at your door. When IRS calls.How one would react? Enlightenment is the end of suffering. It's a state of permanent bliss.
  15. Happy Birthday.Leo
