@Leo Gura This is really good advice. also, In terms of concentration, look into Dopamine Detox, technology and artificial stimulation is a big reason a lot of us can’t concentrate/ sit still for long periods of time. Think Social media, phone, games, apps, porn etc all releases incredible levels of dopamine. I would say a big reason for the rise in ADD is probably due to the incredible amount of technology and media we consume on a daily basis. So, if you have a technology addiction, try a 1 day dopamine detox, and also try to reduce your overall usage over certain periods where you need to concentrate more.

Hey everyone, I felt like writing this post on Happiness, and by happiness I mean the happiness inherent in our true nature, the peace and happiness that are the 'side effects' of Self-Realization and realizing the truth of our own being and reality. Happiness. Would life be worth living without happiness? The word is thrown around a lot these days, often marketers promise us happiness in a capsule or in the next product they are selling, but in reality, happiness can never be found outside of ourselves, or even inside of ourselves, happiness IS what we are. I will be honest, suffering and a low level of background depression is what lead me to finding spirituality, and in particular Eckhart Tolle and starting on the spiritual path, so maybe I am slightly biased towards happiness. I believed getting A*s and going to University then getting some high paying job in the city would make me happy, and that happiness was also just in the next achievement or thing, and was always so close. How wrong I was. The realization that you are literally The Self, you are The Absolute, you are all that exists, ever have existed and ever will 'exist' brings a peace and happiness that never leaves, as you have finally found who you truly are. It brings an end to the endless seeking, and allows for the final rest and joy in being. It brings the innate Infinite Love of EVERYTHING as you know everything is YOU, this screen you are looking at is literally God, these words are literally God. But, simultaneously even that is saying too much, for all there is, is THIS. THIS IS IT. Every single moment is simply the spontaneous joy of being alive, and is accepted with open arms, no matter what arises. Even when so called 'bad' things happen, the Peace and happiness of your true nature remain, for it is dependent on nothing and is literally what you are. It is unshakeable, unbreakable and is your birthright. You quite literally are The Absolute, the little I doesn't exist and never did, the illusion of a separate self has been seen through completely, separation is seen as the illusion it truly is. Paradoxically though, you are more YOU than ever before, your personality is expressed wholeheartedly and you are completely free to truly be who you are. The Absolute sucks you in and spits you out as this beautiful expression of itself, it wants YOU to experience what you are experiencing right now. It wants you to be YOU, to embrace your humanity, to love deeply, to express this understanding, to have fun, to enjoy life! It is impossible to put into words, and I cannot say it any better, unfortunately, which is why silence is always the highest teaching, for this understanding can only be known in the silence, in the gap, in THIS, the answer is never another concept or belief, but is simply found HERE, NOW in THIS. Non-Duality, Duality, Spirituality, Enlightenment, Awakening (etc) are all just concepts that help you realize THIS, like all concepts they have their relative uses, but they must be dropped, and let go of so you can jump in the fire fully naked, and experience THIS as it truly is. So you can experience Sahaja. There is no enlightened person, there is simply the realization of the truth of your own being. Awareness becoming aware of itself. It's not Charlie who has awakened, there is no Charlie to awaken, it is simply Consciousness becoming Conscious of itself. Then what is left? If you are completely happy, fulfilled and at peace, what is left after the spiritual search, after you find what you was after, after the seeking is over. After you no longer spend hours upon hours reading and listening to teachers, and trying to understand this concept, and inquiring about this or that. There is simply the expression of this Peace, Happiness, Love and Understanding in ALL areas of life, you simply live life from this understanding, from love. No longer are you looking for a relationship or a business or a hobby to make you happy, everything you do/ partake in is simply then an expression of this happiness, of this love and of this understanding. You are absolutely free to do whatever you want to, to live life on your terms. Want to go and 'help' people awaken? Go for it! Want to go and meditate in a cave forever? Go for it! Want to go and feed the poor? Go for it! Want to go and work in your local coffee shop? Go for it! Want to become a professional athlete/ musician/ artist? Go for It! Want to go and build your business? Go for it! Want to raise a family and get married? Go for it! And on and on and on. I think you get the point! You have absolute freedom to whatever you wish, to whatever your heart desires. Except one thing changes. The desire will no longer be about what 'you' want, but the desire will come from and be about Love and expressing love, happiness and peace in whatever you do. This is sometimes known as Impersonal Desire, which I think is a helpful concept Everything comes from, is made of and literally is Love, living in alignment with that is the most beautiful gift of all. Every day we are blessed to have the chance to deepen and integrate this understanding even further in life, to be of service to so called 'others' (you) and to express this beautiful understanding however we see fit. As Ramana Maharshi said- 'Your Self-Realization is the greatest service you can render the world.' And, Happiness is inherent In that Self-Realization. And, who doesn't want to be happy? It's what we all want. And, I can say one thing. It's worth it. It's worth the hours seeking, the sleepless nights overthinking and contemplating, the frustration, the existential terror, the fear& anxiety you have to overcome, the dark night of a soul. It's 100000000000000000000000000% worth it, and even that isn't saying enough how worth it is. It's here, it's now, it's THIS. You are THIS. Stop looking elsewhere, it has always been right there, when you realize it, you'll kick yourself at how obvious it all was. Have a good day everyone. Go and express some love, peace and happiness. Go and tell your loved ones you love them, go and give your body the nutrition and exercise (love) it deserves, go and do the things in life you love. Go enjoy life.

@brugluiz This is so true, if people become dependent on the state and those in charge lack empathy and are narcissists, and lets be real most people who are really in charge aren’t great people. We could genuinely get to a situation- you don’t behave how I tell you, your family aren’t being fed. Hopefully not though!

Up to you if you listen to the 'conspiracy' part, it's thought provoking to say the least. However, the 5G speech starts at 33 Mins and finishes around 43 Mins, very, very interesting that the break out was in Wuhan where 5G was rolled out first across the whole city...

@Javfly33 Yeah it’s not really a matter of time, that would be an impossible question, more of a realisation and then embodiment of that realisation. By non-resistance what I mean is that niggling feeling or thing that is constantly rejecting and resisting what is, instead you totally accept each and every moment for the spontaneous joy that it is, even when it’s “shit”, each moment is quite literally a miracle. Yah it sounds like you got it intellectually, I was the same when I listened to Rupert 24/7 intellectually I could describe awakening and awareness etc, but really what use is that? Unless it’s your own direct experience it’s pretty useless, except for helping you get that direct experience. The thing about being in a “non resistance mode 24/7” is it just becomes the new norm, or natural (sahaja) it’s not like you try your hardest to not resist or accept what is, it just is, and it just happens, and you flow with the river of life. Effort is required until it is no longer needed, so If you feel you are still seeking or theres something more to get- keep going! You will know when you have “arrived”, you won’t even need to ask the question. You are your own guru, always remember that. You don’t need an outside authority to “validate” your awakening, as YOU will know! In terms of recommendations, At your point, simply “Do Nothing/ Natural Pure Awareness” meditation would be really beneficial as it will allow you to simply rest as you are, and stop overthinking it all ? In regards to habits and habits of the mind, integration can involve other forms of study. For example, awakening won’t instantly make you lose weight if you’re obese, youd have to take the steps to change your diet and exercise habits, which of course is a form of self-love. and, it’s the same with the minds habits. We have believed for decades there is “someone” there, that this is all about, therefore, every time you do, simply investigate and question your mind, don’t let 1 thought go unnoticed. The mind can be very sneaky, so always be on top of it, and questioning and investigating, eventually it will back down?

@Meta-Man One thing will certainly change. There will be no more resistance to life, no matter what life throws at you. That in itself is a HUGE change, especially in our society where distraction upon distraction is literally a click away.

I'm exactly the same. At first I fell for the fear and propaganda due to my Mum being vulnerable and some of my GFs family, but every day it was becoming clearer that something isn't quite right with this 'virus.' Now, I'm not saying people aren't dying, clearly they are, but what of and what is really going on. These statistics are at the minimum very interesting: http://inproportion2.talkigy.com/ Why are more people than usual not dying, since we are in the midst of a 'Global Pandemic,' are they simply shifting the deaths to 'Covid-19' Like you say, life will be changed forever, it seems this is at the minimum part of some plan for further controls, like mass vaccinations and ID is a very scary thought. Imagine, oh sorry you can't leave the country unless you inject yourself with what we tell you to do, and oh you have no job, well unless you do as we say, you'll also have no UBI so no food, sorry! 5G is another point, how will this effect our bodies and wellbeing... Like I said, something isn't adding up and kudos for investigating further into the truth. If you really want to go down the Rabbit hole watch this and research Agenda 21 by the UN, it truly is sickening the amount of control they want. Fear will kill more people than this virus ever would, living in fear will help nobody and nothing, especially not your Immune system!

@Meta-Man Yep and it's fucking hard at times, I think we've all been there when we just think why even bother. And, yes you have to be prepared to give up EVERYTHING (including 'yourself' of course) to the Absolute. People often ask will my life be the same? or a variation of that. It's such an impossible question to answer because for one, they may stay with the same spouse, at the same job, with the same friends, and already live a life fairly aligned with truth. Whereas, for another they could be in a marriage they hate, with fake relationships and a fake life all around them and working for an oil company that is slowly destroying the world (or similar) so in that situation awakening will probably lead to more 'external' changes. Either way, internally you'll transform, but nothing false is worth clinging to as you know. @Javfly33 Haha, I know what you mean. Remember, it's always THIS, it's never in the concept of the future or past, it can only be here and now. It's always worth it

@LaucherJunge A lot of Astrologers and ancient cultures pointed to 2020 being a crucial year for the so called “golden age” but as we know, there is always chaos before the order. I feel this will be an even more chaotic year than we have seen so far...

@TrynaBeTurquoise Maybe it's because it literally is a strain of Flu renamed I'm literally open to anything at this point, all I know is, it isn't the deadly virus the media tells us it is. I'm leaning towards it being the frontman for mass Vaccinations as part of Agenda 2030, if you haven't heard of that it's in the open from the UN and it's fucked. I'll watch that interview after the Wim Hof one, thanks, man! @erik8lrl UK has 5G, I live here and every night they are putting up more nationwide. Even in rural Wales, which is the countryside. Also Elon Musk's sinister plan to blast it out globally through satellites has started I believe, or is starting soon.

@Consept Funny you mention UBI, wouldn't it be amazing to know that UBI could be an incredible thing, but in reality could also be rolled out as a form of control in the transition to AI taking most jobs and people having no other form of income, so having to behave like the Gov tell them. I agree whether we went to the moon or not who cares. Who is really running and controlling the world and the truth about this relative reality is what I'm interested in. Just like we are all interested in absolute truth.

@anonuser131 Another Icke fan on here

London Real is actually changing the game, these are the sorts of people who should be in charge of the mainstream media. Imagine the likes of Wim Hof, Sadhguru, David Icke and these Doctors being interviewed in front of whole countries

@fridjonk The beauty in losing interest in reading spirituality is that you may find interest in reading in other areas of life again. I know I read/ watched Non-Duality solely near enough for like 2 years, it was refreshing to read/ watch things on “other” subjects, although of course every subject is God/ This/ The Absolute?

@VeganAwake if you want your Paradigms shattered I dare you to book a session with Ananda or Ramaji, that will be the ultimate holding up a mirror for you, that’s the last thing I’ll say to you? If not, enjoy quarantine and remember whole foods vegan not junk food vegan to help you fight off the virus if it ever comes? Oh and random& completely unrelated, but to everyone, practice the Wim Hof Method for optimum health, it’s fucking awesome, he did a podcast with London Real today in relation to Corona!

@TrynaBeTurquoise Exactly. Listen to the scientists, doctors and Big Pharma companies who want to keep you sick so they can make more $$$ Its amazing how much more you find out when you go in open minded without any bias, and actually listen to people and what they say!

@Vipassana Amazing interview, but I’m sure we will get told otherwise soon enough ?

@VeganAwake I know, conceptual understanding means fuck all, and all concepts should be dropped, even RASA, even LOC, and especially enlightenment, spirituality, Non-Duality and liberation. These are all concepts. Of course concepts and books have their uses, but eventually all must be dropped, as all that is, is THIS. Even that is saying too much, hence why I always say Silence is the “highest” teaching, as this can only be understood in silence. I am speaking solely from direct experience. The funny thing is, RASA/ working with A&R is literally about unlearning and going through blockages, not building up information, and letting go of concepts and beliefs is a big part of that. You can’t “think” you’re awakened, you either are awakened and live that truth, or you are seeking. What good would thinking do? Plus, as you must know, there’s no Me to be awakened ? Concepts mean fuck all, and if I haven’t said that enough, then that’s a miscommunication on my end. I have no interest in taking sides or getting people on “my side” I was merely commenting that his Gifs perfectly reflected how I also felt. Oh and since you mentioned the LOC model, the stuff you constantly preach- Nobody there, nothing matters, No-Self etc, is very common of the LOC 600s. Im looking forward to your love awakening, that’s when the real fun starts?

@Meta-Man Your Gifs are literally perfect @Inliytened1 Unfortunately, I don't think the wall we broken anytime soon!

@GreenWoods Any form of Censorship requires further investigation in my view, Icke has been ridiculed as a nutter for 30 years, so if he is so crazy and talks absolute shit, why are they so worried?

@VeganAwake Most people have tried being very nice to you consistently, sometimes someone has to be direct. The point is we've all been where you are, that's why we try to help. But, at the end of the day it's your journey, my worry is you are spreading incomplete information around the forum to lost seekers that may do more harm than good. I'm just trying to point out Tony Parsons, Jim Newman etc aren't speaking the highest truth, I beg you to listen to some truly Self-Realized teachers such as: Ramana Maharshi, Francis Lucille, Adyashanti, Rupert Spira etc. I know you will say these guys just aren't direct enough, or aren't on the wavelength of Parsons, but when you have further awakenings you will see Parsons really is like Chapter 2. Only Awakening beyond No-Self can truly show you this. I look forward to that thread down the line @Inliytened1 Hope you're well man, I appreciate the job you and other mods do on here more and more everyday

@VeganAwake I think a lot of people are bored of your Non-Dual nihilism and Tony Parsons et al boot licking. No-Self is not the final truth, it's literally like chapter 2 if there was a 'book on enlightenment' Most people you preach to have had the realization of No-Self, No little me, nobody there, nothing matters etc. I very much look forward to the day you have an awakening that doesn't involve the letters/ word 'No.' Love, Happiness, God/Absolute are all much more fun than being stuck in the No-Self limbo. Just to reiterate the No-Self stage is a HUGE realization on the path, it's just not the Finish line in terms of realizations and awakening.

@Arzack You all good? While I don't deny what you are saying, it seems like it's coming from a place of anger? Why not enjoy THIS, now, and if/ when we go to those realms, we can enjoy them!? @Javfly33 You're getting it

Make of this what you will. https://www.davidicke.com/article/567615/headline-robert-kennedy-jr-slams-bill-gates-sterilisation-paralysis-vaccines Using Africans to test Vaccines seems very moral! What a man Gates is! https://21stcenturywire.com/2019/12/23/bill-gates-develops-new-id-tattoo-to-check-for-vaccinations/ Can you not see the issues with these things? https://newspunch.com/bill-gates-coronavirus-means-need-digital-certificates-prove-who-received-vaccine/ Do I need to say more? I also agree many theories are BS, however, researching the truth is what I'm interested in and finding out what is really going on. We all want to find existential truth, so why is the relative truth suddenly of no importance?

@fridjonk I’m not stressing about it at all, simply educating myself on it and how to protect myself from it that’s all Ive completely accepted the Tech age, and aware of the many benefits it brings , however, it’s also good to be aware of the drawbacks of certain things, and I think this will All be exposed in the mainstream over the next decade or so. Yep, I defo want to get away from the cities, I work from home so have no need to be near one, and living near nature sounds amazing, you’re lucky to live in a farm!
