  1. @Leo Gura Who are the followers of the "Temple of the True Inner light"?
  2. I got that too at first https://psychonautwiki.org/wiki/DPT Interesting compound.
  4. @BeginnerActualizer Buddhist have egoless compassion for everyone. A compassion that desires nothing in return.
  5. I wouldn't say escape, but more as just accepting what it is as illusion. In the real world of everyday existence, we all have a "street self" that must interact with others and their well imbedded illusion of self. Job, family, friends, people we meet, all a role play that we watch happen from a place of silence beyond the illusion.
  6. @BeginnerActualizer Self is an illusion, albeit a very persistent one. (Einstein said that about time). The point being, if self is a persistent illusion, why not make it a really great one.
  7. @Seyed Yea, it's like that. The "scary" part is the awakening from the dream of self. The self that experiences a paradox every time existence refuses to fit the constructs of it's logical self.
  8. @username Sounds like the real deal, even if it was just for 3 seconds. Just the fact that you could let go of yourself is a milestone along this journey. If you want to try something really cool, do that again in a secluded part of nature. Maybe take a hike in the woods, sit there and just let it happen. If it does, It may feel as if god is seeing through your eyes. The division between what is you and what is nature will melt away and become one field of existence. Totally amazing stuff!
  10. @xXguitarsenXx It sounds like sky diving would be a walk in the park compared to this stuff. At least you know you have a chute.

  13. @kurt I enjoy everything you have to share here Kurt. I can't say I'm all about the dharma and karma but the message there is always inspiring. I read between the lines, so to speak. Do me a favor, if you notice me getting too far out on a limb with any of this enlightenment stuff (which I do) knock me off my branch. The harder I hit the ground, the more I deserved the pain. And probably a little closer to enlightenment for it.
  14. Same place as karma and the three bodies. The eye of the beholder.
  15. It's a world wide zombie apocalypse out there of people sleep walking in a dream state of self, destroying this planet and each other. There is such a thing as detached action. Awakened people can have a very positive effect on those who are not yet awake. It takes no force, when a person shines with higher truth people recognize something special about them. When oneness is present, others naturally align themselves with that. Let it shine brother, let it shine through you!
  16. Could physics have it right that all physical reality is one connected field of tiny curled up dimensions called Calabi-Yau spaces? And that field has a wave movement to it. It carries time and gravity also through that wave motion. A wave becomes a particle when it is observed (awareness). particles=galaxy=planet=soil=water=tree=apple, but all one unified field. Calabi-Yau spaces are said to have a unified intelligence and a sharing network. Any effect on one part of this field (existence) is known throughout the entire field.
  17. @Whatever It sounds like 2 hours are working just fine for you. Good enough in my view. You don't want to become a meditation recluse so mix it up like your doing now. My thought- Stay with that healthy balance.
  18. @Progress Just my two cents, we become egoless in deep sleep every night. Possibly the same as anesthesia where we forget we exist. 1) You may have become slightly aware of that egoless deep sleep state. You were in deep sleep, yet aware of it to some degree. 2) You have been studying and listening to Leo's vids and you just dreamt the whole thing. Hard to say which exactly. Sorry. *I remember having anesthesia when I was very young and experienced a black void as your friend did. That must happen often. It does make me wonder if that egoless deep sleep state is another level of consciousness. I heard somewhere that some advanced meditators practice awareness of that deep sleep state. I'll find it for you............ Here it is!
  19. @Seyed Welcome to the path!
  20. Remove the word "their" and yes that would be about it. Enlightened realize what they are is higher awareness itself. In actuality, everyone is already that. Most just don't realize they are because of the illusion of self that masks the truth. If you have a location, you can't be everywhere, can you? But most won't dare to let go of themselves, so they cling to the safety of ego-self and it's confined existence.
  21. @Seyed Surrender= ego death: the renunciation, rejection and, ultimately, the death of the need to hold on to a separate, self-centered existence
  22. @Jhonny Your probably meditating with a wrong approach. 2-3 years and you could be stuck in this same place. Too much emphasis on "I am meditating" won't get you very far. That's just more "me" which meditation is the opposite of. I assume the "difficulty" lies in the fact you can't stop being "you" during meditation. Change that up to-"No one is meditating, meditation is just happening of it's own doing".
  23. @wellbranding Any sense of well being is going to effect your overall immune system in positive ways. Stress is a big factor too. No self= no stress for the enlightened. I was wondering the other day about the effectiveness of meditation on Multiple Sclerosis. The immune system attacks the nervous system. Could just meditating be beneficial to slow progression of certain diseases? All important questions. Keep up the good work!
  24. @mr lenny That sounds like good stuff there!
  25. @mr lenny You gotta transcend TIME. Nothing will ever happen within time because that's just another aspect of "you". Your mind may be creating resistance by holding on to time (you), even though you may not realize the sneaky ways mind will hold it's ownership. Override that mind by transcending time, space, self/patience- and all those worldly confines. Do that and 30 minutes of meditation will seem like 5. You'll be amazed. Some days the mind just refuses to behave. When I realize that is happening, I "STOP" everything! Than put mind in it's proper perspective as "just mind", than move on. Usually that works. If not, approach meditation again when it feels right. The last thing you want is to experience frustration or impatience. That is the mind's way of winning over you by inducing a negative aspect into the practice.
