@Piotr meditation is for mental health,yoga for body health,am i right? i didn't wanted to sign for any classes,just wanted to try some of isha yoga exercices at home ,but i want to know if its worth to combine my 3 hours of SDS with yoga :))

hey guys ,for the last 2 months i've been experiencing some uncomfortable senzations,sometimes i keep asking myself ''how do i know that all that i know as a strategy on meditating is true?'' i said to myself that even that is jut another belief,but it doesn't help at all,if i say to myself ,'' i am doing meditation properly'' i am also questioning ''how do i know'' ,and every time these obsesive thoughts come,i go into ''survival mode'' frustration,anger,i know that some of you guys will ask me,''is there anyone to get frustrated?'' or '' is there anyone who has obsesive thoughts?'' but if i realise that that everything is a projection of my mind i say to myself that even that is an illusion(and it is),so i can't really thrust it,i came to the conclusion that you need a smaller belief (''everything is a projection of your mind'') where you need to put the other complex beliefs. So ,can you please help me with this? I know that other beliefs wont help me too much but maybe i will get an insight to help me with this

@Steven thank you for your support @MartineF i started for a long time ago to meditate everywhere,anywhere:sitting,walking ,even speaking :)) its like having an energy field around me :))

@MartineF yeah :)) , now i really read this for real :))

@Leo Gura thank you Leo,i realised that i focused on thoughts instead of focus on meditation,is it ok if i try to meditate all the time?i mean,from the time i wake up to the time i go to sleep? or is it too exhausting?

@MartineF Thanks for the advice @Leo Gura ....so what should i do?should i let go of those beliefs?

@MartineF does counciousnes really exist? lets say a belief like: ''i am a human'' and then you realise: ''that's just a belief'' ,but ''that's just another belief'' is just another belief,i dont know really why i make such a drama about this things...but sometimes i fear that if i allow myself to think about this things i wont do meditation anymore...

I don't really know what i had for the last 3 years because i can't even call it depression :)), i wanted to kill myself several times,also went to a party and my maniac stage came from nowhere and I started to scream that i will kill everyone ,and punching the walls,then got internated etc etc :)) ,After that i started to do personal development +meditation,and i recognised that the depresional events started to came rarely(sorry for my english),first i was concentrated on personal development and less on meditation,then i realised how important the meditation is(phylosphies and ideas about the meaning of ''no judging'').On vacations i was concentrated on self-inquiry,but i realised how mechanical i was doing that,so i decided to give up on that,and concentrate more on SDS and simple meditation.I recently started to realise how pretty much everything that i know about life (i mean everything) is happening in my head,and three weeks ago I was meditating on a block near my city,i was doing SDS and normal meditation,after 25 minutes i opened my eyes,i could feel all my body filling with emotions,and everything looked just the same (nothing really shining,it felt like my eyes were shining :)) ), it was beautiful .

I think that most of us know that you cannot control the thoughts,but every time i hear ,this it is also a sentence like : ''try to stop your thoughts ,and you will do worse'' ,but if you cannot control your thoughts,control doesn't exist,right? (i mean,just in the thoughts idea) , so what it is actually the control? another judgement on the present thought?

Remember that everything that you are doing is thinking,You do not want to stop the thoughts(you can't do it anyway),you want to leave in peace with them,and for that you need mindfullnes skills,like this way:i have this kind of thoughts sometimes,like i am superior ,but when i observe that happening i realise that those are just thoughts,there is no one really to be superior,value do not exist,it is just a projection of your mind.If you ask me,you sould do more mindfulnes and ''do nothing'' meditation

''There are no accidents in a human life'' i think i know this quote from the philosophy of Albert Camu.I tried to understand this but its pretty hard for me to understand this when I'm imagining a car accident,how can be that case a non-accidental event ? I started to question this when i decided to take 100% responsability in life,and this question kinda intrigues me

Isn't simple meditation(trying to clear your mind of thoughts) a good method of self inquiry as well? when i'm meditating the only way i can clear my mind of thoughts is by doing mindfulnes:realising that everything that i am doing and i know as reality is a thought combined with an emotion(by the way , i realised how many emotions i feel everyday,now i can do mindfulnes on most of them).Most of the day i am doing mindfulnes,and for the last three weeks i kinda felt on my skin how much the thinking creates,when i was observing my beliefs,i felt like there is no such thing as objectivity

I started to meditate on the top of a hydro-electric station near my city at 9 AM,i was doing normal meditation(trying to clear my mind) and strong determination sitting at the same time,stood there like 25 minutes with my eyes closed and when i opened them...i just became fully happy,the sensation was so intense i nearly cried,and i wasn't thinking at all(im pretty good at mindfullnes with emotions and i saw that whatever thought came in my mind about that event released another type of emotion) but that lasted lets say one minute .This experience motivated me a lot ,before that experience i only became calmer with meditation (and understood alot of things) .So what do you think about this? I cannot describe in words what happened

@cetus56 well,ill do my best next times

@cetus56 thanks,ill remember that next time

@cetus56 wow,that sounds new :)) ,i think it lasted that little because i tried to control that feeling (i was trying to do mindfullnes on that feeling )

I am doing enlightment exercises for about one month and a week,but i started to ask myself if i really gonna achieve this,is enlightenment really achieved by spontaneous luck , or you need to feel somehow before it starts? i know there's no me who will get enlightened ,i keep telling me that all that i feel,think are just perceptions,and i question ''who am i '', and i know that i just started to do this,but...i still feel that i'm going nowhere...can someone please help me with some advice? (sorry for my english)

@cetus56 thank you

@cetus56 I'm a begginer, if you tell me to ''let go of the ego'' i will keep asking myself ''how can i do that? '' and maybe trying to imagine myself being a part of everything in my awareness/percepcion field

@cetus56 As long as i understand how can i do that

@cetus56 Thanks

So...what should i do? :)) ,should i ''undo''my belief system or something?

Its hard for me to remember something like that,i just remember loving Naruto(a cartoon) ,i said that because when you are a child your mind is not identified with many things,and life is not ''good or bad'',just it is

you mean like when you were a child?
