@Kalki Avatar If you really desire something, nothing will get your way. Try this exercise. Sit and just ask (HONESTLY) What do I want. Do not jump to conclusions without deep questioning. You feel it. And there are no maybes here. JUST DO IT.

I think without stupidity, I would not be here. Which is funny.

@Preety_India That's why (not) having kids have to be done consciously to really appreciate that kind of experience. Here the key difference is conscious and unconscious. But even when you do it unconsciously, you will eventually become conscious about it.

@Preety_India I understand you. I'm not saying the love that we have is a belief, I'm saying that the need that we should experience that kind of love is a belief. I'm not saying you shouldn't carry that belief, I'm just saying it's simply a belief.

@Gesundheit I have been living away from my family (but not entirely on my own) for about 10 years. When I compare it with the another 10 years, I see the pros and cons of it. I have become an "independent" thinker, I'm doing practical part that is needed for me and just only being away from them has made me grateful for what they had done for me. Even I love them, I can't overlook the beliefs that they have planted in me. Every time, when I question them, they get angry at me, but eventually they understand it or they don't care about it. Where I'm living, having family is the most important thing to do and questioning it will be one of the hardest things to do. So, what I'm saying is, yes giving birth is beautiful experience, but should you have that experience is a belief. And why do anyone would want that, because he/she is surrounded by the people that hold that belief. And questioning that belief can be a "sinful" thing to do to them. This belief has kind of served its purpose, but it is time to be conscious. I'm lucky even to be able to question my beliefs, but that doesn't mean I should not do it nor should anyone. I think it will take years that people will consciously want to have a baby.

@Leo Gura ah, ok. Sorry.

@Leo Gura That's the thing I don't understand when you say you can imagine and create anything you want. Does it mean I imagine what's happening now and can imagine anything (live the life I want) or is that you can automatically change how you perceive anything? I'm just curious.

We can simplify it like this. A thought is a thought. That sentence is a thought again. You will get stuck when you think about something which references to the thing which you are thinking about. So, you can't solve this by thinking. You have to realize that it is a thought. Being silent or aware of your thoughts can help to get past that point. Hold this thought in your mind. This is a thought. Realize that that is a thought too.

I love conceptualising, which is a trap for this work. After I watched a bunch of Leo's videos, I started creating Leoism (this was few months ago), beacause of his huge influence in my life. It was so hard to break out of it. So beware of your constructed beliefs.
