@Aakash Aakash please be honest with yourself in what you want. Leo's interest are exploring reality,Self Realisation and study of human Mind - psychology.He is perfectly doing what he is interested whole heartedly. Now Self Realisation is not a new concept.That's what Hinduism,Buddhism is all about. If you have strong desires to make money,Family,career,marriage and not able to whole heartedly trust the wise words of sages now do it gradually you can be a family man carry out your family duties,carrier in a balanced way - Dharma,Artha,Kama,Moksham. But keep meditating as well. Guess Winter Knight can give you better guidance if you are in confusion.He is enlightened and active in the world as well.

@Aakash what happened Aakash suddenly so much concern about financial success,status ? Sudden u turn from a desire to serve the world ????

@Preetom If you don't see other - the function of the intellect is to distinguish between you and the other - otherwise one will go mad - Sadhguru In reality or conconciousness or existence - It is simply nothing.New age people are projecting their human love on the Absolute ? - Sadhguru

@WorknMan @WorknMan Dear worknMan read Rupert Spira article on this. In short conciousness doesnt think.It is the mind which thinks. https://non-duality.rupertspira.com/read/the_new_science_of_consciousness The gist is - the infinite or conciousness or the Self or awareness is SELF AWARE.if it is not Self Aware we can never realize that. Mind or the reflected conciousness or in otherwords it borrows the knowing power of the Infinite. Conciousness or self is the simple silence or the blank nothing we experience always when there are no thoughts or in the gap between the thoughts and that is not realized as conciousness. -------------------------------- This article helped me to understand as typically lot of false naratives that conciousness is not an experience cannot be experienced like the eyes cannot see itself.You are conciousness allready you cannot realize it blah blah. -----------------+------------- But that will not bring the immediate SelfRealization or collapsing of all dualities or enlightenment of We are that or No self experience or oneness. Or the Nirvikalpa Samadhi. So keep practicing be till all doubts are cleared beyond doubt and realized. -----------------------------

@Conrad What is silly ?

@Shin Thats the correct realization.To God nothing exists.Creation doesn't exist.God alone is.- Ajathi vada - Absolute Truth From the God's perspective - Turiyadeedha - Nirvikalpa Samadhi. @Mikael89

@Mikael89 ???.

@Preetom ???

@SQAAD Liberation is not indulging mindlessly in desires,if you indulge in desires There will be always more and more desires.Never ending.Be it lust,money,fame,power,success in short the very desires arise in search of happiness. Ego gratification. ? You will be distracted away from your true nature of pure bliss,peace,equanimity. Liberation is not doing what ever you want. Liberation is freedom from emotions,desires,mind. Liberation is freedom from everything. (Doesn't mean you have to throw away all your money possessions and live as a beggar mendicant.Money is important for living but don't be obsessive with money or don't be money minded.)---This is just a compromise we make since there is a strong desire to live. I will give example of nature of liberated souls totally renounced the world,body. In absolute purity Nirvikalpa Samadhi is the highest samadhi where you are God.The souls who don't have any slightest traces of desires left can be in that state for days together with out returning back to worldly conciousness. It is said that there are incidences of souls who didnt return to the worldly consciousness and remained in Nirvikalpa Samadhi for 21 days ( No body consciousness,No thoughts) or more and had physical death. I don't believe in the term Sahaja Samadhi term said by Ramana Maharishi that's heard in recent days as one will have body conciousness.

X @How to be wise @AlwaysBeNice @How to be wise Interesting no minimum compulsory attendance mandatory ? Guess you haven't chosen Engineering,science ,medicine,Finance or business management as your career. And life in US is much easy compared to other countries leaving aside some well developed European countries,Canada and Australia. Here is a short list which came to my mind on emotions Lust,Anger,Greed,Jealousy,Anxiety,Impatience,Intolerance,Pride,Reaction to Insult,Reaction to deadlines( In real life situations),Reaction to Micromanaging,Lies,deceit,unfairness or injustice,Shame,Guilt,Fear,Attachment,likes,dislikes,addictions,loss of money,valuables or dear ones,Inferiority superiority complexes,Domination,facing corruption ( guess need not pay bribes in US),Attachment to the body - Sickness,pain,stress,Attachment to ideology,situations against the conviction vow of morality,values,righteousness.

@EvilAngel Dear Evil Angel don't conceptualise the absolute truth and try to maintain that conceptualised absolute truth in a relative realm where relative truths are the truth and absolute Truth has no meaning. You are God only in Nirvikalpa samadhi.If you are in Nirvikalpa Samadhi then you can not type,think,write what world,what forum what others what autism ? Else you are a normal human with ego mind typing in the forum.come to reality.

@How to be wise If you don't go to college what's your future plans on earning - money too is essential for living.unless your parents have amazed you wealth so that you need not worry about that ?

@Inliytened1 No matter what you all say beyond certain level I couldn't understand even intellectually that nothing is bad.??? ----------------------------------------- Heard a speech from a realized master in practical life all advaitins adhere strictly to righteousness,virtues,morality as they know they are God only in Nirvikalpa Samadhi and once they are out they are just realized humans and adhere to relative truths and live a surrendered life as a devotee but knowing the absolute truths perfectly. Another master said bad thoughts won't even appear after realization don't worry. Purification of mind is very important along with meditation,self enquiry. The above two I can understand intellectually. _---------------------------------------- One realized master said all is well and good.See everything as good (even if that is bad) Hope one day I will get what all you say on all is well and nothing is bad ???

@Inliytened1 ???

@Inliytened1 Ultimately mastery of emotions = realizing that all emotions are super impositions and not real and dropping them ? isnt it ? From love comes attachment.From attachment likes and dislikes.And then suffering ??? So love is the root cause of suffering ??? How is it ?

@SQAAD Intellectual questions and answers are useless.Drop all these questions concepts including the concept god.Infinity,power,creation,duality,non duality.God is a concept.creation is a concept.Do you have any questions including god or creation or world or your body during deep sleep ? Why cant you be peaceful like that in waking state ?Thats the purpose of your search. You are in search of yourself and your true nature.

@How to be wise Beautiful.Nice.Thank you.

@Conrad 57g ??? internet article says 15g packs and can be used for 2 trips ? So you have taken approximately 8 trip dosage in a single shot ? thats pretty strong. And whats difference between maggic truffles and magic mushroom ?

@Pouya There is only one identity that should go that is the feeling of me,or sense of seperatedness.Only then there will not be any feeling like pouya. Extrovert,introvert are stories.Changing world views are stories.That doesnt help. You play the role of father,son,brother,friend,employee or employer or male and act accordingly according to the role you play.But its pouya thats playing the roles.

@winterknight Kama krodha lobha moga madha mascharya. Damba,Garva,Abhimana,Agankara,Shame,Guilt,Insult to pride ,respect and few more words in tamil for which I dont know the exact translation in Sanskrit - English all has to be purified,purged. Chitta vritti Nirodha. From a book written by an Avadhoota Sadhguru Saint.

@Tom T Personality is the story - Person or the ego is the hero of the story. I am the body my name is so and so my educational qual is so etc etc Ego is the invisible I thought or mechanism - supposedly it points to the idea - I am the body.which the mind uses upon to make the body to act. Personality is matter of memory.Ego is not part of the memory. Sense of seperatedness or i feeling or me feeling is the identity.Its the identity that vanishes. Enlightened or not the ego mechanism functions the same.

@Shaun Dont take dreams seriously.They have no meaning.Again you are identifying with the body mind super impositions. Remember you as God you are neither the doer nor the experiencer.You are aware of yourself alone. Remember all experiences are not real. For you world doesnt exist nothing exist.Thats the absolute truth. Everything is happening in its presence. Oneness is not self.Oneness is an experience and hence it is not real. But if that doesnt help.Purify your mind.Replace them with greater thoughts. See Love everything as God. Do some selfless service. Have a daily regular routine for your daily activities and Meditation,yoga,pranayama. Go to gym and do some excercise before sleep.So that will get some good deep sleep. Have assosiation with holy spiritual enlightened beings,monks. Attend satsangs. Read contemplate spiritual books.preferably the traditional old books. ???

@Shaun I really dont understand your problem ? ? No emotions nothing - isnt that not supposed to be peaceful ? And whats the fear about you are feeling in the morning ?

@LiberatedMonkey Acidity problem ?
