Hi Galyna. Its certainty has been a while. I can totally relate to what you're saying here. I remember a time early on when Leo just starting off. Before the forum even existed. I had my whole spiel about what enlightenment was. Then Leo replied, "This is all thought stories". Gotta love it!

It is simply returning to the mundane. Chop wood, drink coffee.

Starting a Buddhist meditation practice at the age of 20 is a lot different than starting at age 6. If you would have started then, your pursuits would already be aligned.

Here we have #10 of the Ox herding pictures "Returning to the marketplace" The journey is complete. Smoke em' if you got em'.

It's from his lecture "The Dream of Life"

Wife: Would you PLEASE, help me with these children! SomethingFunny : Would you PLEASE stop nagging me! I'm trying to achieve all the things Leo talks about.

@Butters "I Am" -then all the trouble started.

Or maybe both together true. @Entrepreneur Your input here thus far has been a valuable asset to the Life Purpose/ Entrepreneurship community. So welcome! I hope it's being appreciated. *When I first saw your Musk avatar, I had to take a look see and investigate what you were all about- as a newbie that is. But the shoe fits well.

I feel most Godly when creating my own music. Like God is flowing through me. Ambient22 audio.mp4

@CARDOZZO As far as your original quarry goes, think in terms of you as an energetic thread connected to all other energetic threads and embrace that mode of consciousness.

If we need to start somewhere, let it be to fully understanding one absolute truth: which is our difficulty with this simple progression is that most of us are unwilling to accept that we need so little to get on with. We are geared to expect instruction, teaching, guides, masters. And when we are told that we need no one, we don't believe it. We become nervous, then distrustful, and finally angry and disappointed. If we need help, it is not in methods, but in emphasis. If someone makes us aware that we need to curtail our self-importance, that help is real. Sorcerers say we should need no one to convince us that the world is infinitely more complex than our wildest fantasies. So, why are we dependent? Why do we crave someone to guide us when we can do it ourselves? Contemplate on just this for now and we will speak again.

@CARDOZZO If I continue, I then become personally responsible for whatever happens from here.

Detachment.

@CARDOZZO Our way of perceiving is a predator's way. There is another mode, the one I am familiarizing you with: the act of perceiving the essence of everything, energy itself, directly. To perceive the essence of everything will make us understand, classify, and describe the world in entirely new, more exciting, more sophisticated terms. Terms that correspond to sorcery truths, which have no rational foundation and no relation whatsoever to the facts of our daily world but which are self-evident truths for the sorcerers who perceive energy directly and see the essence of everything. For such sorcerers, the most significant act of sorcery is to see the essence of the universe. The essence of the universe resembles incandescent threads stretched into infinity in every conceivable direction, luminous filaments that are conscious of themselves in ways impossible for the human mind to comprehend.

@Joseph Maynor I don't care if you speak Mandrin Chinese. I'm more interested in God bringing you to your knees. Tell me about that.
