@Alex_R that sounds cool. How are your lucid dreams different on vs off shrooms?

@Preety_India we can discuss that in the personal massager if u really care, cause its not relevant to this topic.

It seems to me like putting ads in the middle of a video distracts from the meditative value of one of the longer videos. Ads about such unconscious topics will change the silent nature of the minds of many individuals who are trying to actually listen properly. Ads seem more appropriate for the Actualized clips channel since those videos are fore people who do not want to focus intently and really listen much.

@Preety_India Still not everyone will have premium. We can do that but some people can't or won't.

@Preety_India Yes I think so but that's not not really relevant since having to skip them will also take you out of focus.

Next time you start doing one of those habits which you see as negative try treating it as a meditation. Become silent in ur mind and try to feel the weight of your actions fully. (not that this has 100% worked for me yet. It’s difficult.) also replacing one negative habit with a more positive one may be a step in the right direction. For example when u crave playing video games do something which stimulates you similarly which u enjoy if there is anything, like maybe playing cards or doing math. make sure to only blame you if you fail at this because if you put the power to change it anywhere else in ur mind but you it obviously gets in the way.

The book of mirdad is a very advanced book about a group of seekers containing many great quotes and lessons it would be awesome to see your thoughts on it. Or maybe just read it and use the insights for a wide range of topics. It gives you further insight into how osho probably “saw” things.

@Tim R yes that’s exactly what I mean.

@Leo Gura yeah ur right Leo make sure not to go anywhere risky where you could receive alot of hate just stay in a small corner and don't make yourself known too much just do what they expect of you and don't speak out too much great idea.

@Roy this is actually a very good idea. Mainly because Jordan is currently looking to come back into the public light after some time off. He is more open minded now after going through a period of suffering which startled him.

@LyubovThank you I think that's good advice, but I do forgive hitler already. And as for the usefulness of "these stupid message board questions" its just a bit of fun since I am admittedly somewhat of a philosophy addict. It is only play.

@Preety_India I understand. It's just his style, he is unique as you are.

@Preety_India And Leo's response wasn't? In every moment you will be presented with an opportunity to love, to see things as they are rather than as you'd like them to be. this is one of those moments, NOW.

@Preety_India You already love him you just don't know it yet. But do not feel guilty for a lack of love you will get there.

@Leo Gura Thought that would catch your eye. You may be misunderstanding. My point is that exactly; I love hitler as myself. but hypothetically if I did hate hitler I would enjoy my hate for hitler, because I would love my hate for him, in so doing causing the duality to collapse.

@Moksha agreed thank u.

First off I am not saying that video games are harmful, I just think it’s an interesting topic since reality is similar in many ways to a video game, and for various other reasons. Most of the most popular video games seem to be about harming the none player characters in the game. GTA 5 is about being a criminal, Assassins creed is about assassinating people, call of duty is about shooting people and so on. I wonder if the craving to play games like this is born of a craving for violence which is suppressed in everyday life in order to maintain a functioning society. what affect do you think games like this would have on a developing mind?

You want to see things as they are. You have set a series of desires for yourself to create a story and the only possible end to this story is to return to the beginning which is to go back home to nowhere. We call it love because we have no way to perceive it through paradox in order to perceive it through paradox the one on the journey creates negatives in order to love positives. In order to get a glimpse of seeing all as it is by seeing a part as it is through selfishness. Selfishness is merely a part trying to become the whole the only way it knows how: by loving a part. everything is perfect for everything is made of only one, to have conflict two is required. We are tortured by what we have not accepted, tortured by our negatives we create in order to have positives. In order to return home there must no longer be negatives and positives there must be only one. Self actualization = seeing it/you/self/everything/nothing as it actually is self actualization = being truly home anyone have any other interesting definitions for self actualization ?

I also find this to be true. Well done ____________

I find for some reason at around 3AM I become more conscious and creative and I have heard sadhguru and others mention this as a special time of day. Have you noticed this?

Socializing overall is way easier when physically attractive, there have been a number of studies conducted on this showing that people assume better looking people to be of higher status and to be smarter.

How when realizing something extremely profound it triggers us emotionally. a lot of people seem to think crying is only for sadness when it is not.

How laughing and comedy/having a sense of humor in general is evidence of intelligence and u could explain why when taking psychedelics and/or going though a particularly high burst of consciousness so much laughter is involved. ?

Finding more people to be around won’t help, it will only be a temporary solution and will not fix the actual problem. Fake growth is changing your environment to suit you, real growth is changing you.

One of the most painful parts of my journey has been realizing that I am totally alone and always will be and always have been. If you have come to the point where you have also realized this for yourself I think it would probably be great for you to use your high EQ on yourself by first entering a state of silence then slowly approaching the loneliness and slowly bringing your awareness of oneness and absolute aloneness alongside it so they form more connections.
