This is part of the buddhist wisdom about suffering. Through that lens, let's inquiry, what is suffering? Pain is inevitable but suffering is optional. Suffering is the resistence to the what is, to reality, to existence, to the here-now. The more you are at peace or in love with what is, the less resistence there is to life, the more love and bliss we fill. This is the theory, let's ground it in practice. Right now ask yourself this question, what am I resisting to feel right now? Close your eyes, see and when you notice, directly feel that, and open it. Nice, for example I noticed I'm resisting to feel hunger right now because I should have had breakfast some minutes ago but still wanted to be more in the forum, so I supressed hunger to keep being here. Now I feel that and will go to have breakfast after it. What are you resisting or unconscious in your body right now? Close your eyes and look, open and release. I notice that thoughts come in the way to fully feeling my body but as they come they dissappear. I feel that I'm contracting my stomach and perinneal region. Noticing actuamatically makes me relaxed and more in the body. I also feel some pain in my ribs from playing football which I am resisting. There is pain, (unavoidable) but I was resisting pain (avoidable), now that I'm conscious of this, I have pain but no resistence to pain, I allow everything to be as it is. What are you avoiding in the space you are right now? I'm resisting to clean but also I resist things being unclean. Which is absurd in itself, rather I clean or be happy even if it's unclean, oh we are starting to see through suffering! Is there suffering without thoughts? (Why are you waiting for my answer I could be deluded, see 4 yourself) Mostly there isn't. Without the improper use of the egoic mind most of the suffering disappears. Still some suffering realities are not directly mediated by thought, like contractions in the body or just unconscious wiring that is present without expressive thought in the moment. Is there suffering without the human I ? (Let's link impermanence, no-self, emptiness and nirvana) As one sees that nothing really lasts in the world, surrender to the now naturally emerges, allowing everything to be as it is. As one sees through the stupidity of suffering, clinging and unnatural attachements... all created by the egoic mind. Which assumes that there is a human, inside the body, somewhere, to whom pain, suffering and thoughts all occur to. There are thoughts but no thinker, the thinker is just another thought, there is pain and pleasure but they arrive at no one and arise from nowhere. As everything is impermanent you see that what you think you are is never graspable but an optic illusion that seems there, but upon closer inspection... Oh there is no human without resistence to the now! This makes you feel hollow and empty, there is no substance to your human self, yet something is, however is cosntantly fluid. You come to realize that you are free from yourself, entering into a deep present open and peaceful state called nirvana. Characterised by desirelessness, which is heaven, because whatever happens to be here and now, there is no aversion and no clinging, no resistance and no acceptance, no resistance to resistance & no acceptance to acceptance, whatever is just is

It's a transition, trust the proccess but don't self indulge too much either, a balance has to be struk. For the moment, your whole ego and mind is getting transformed, like reforming a house. Let things settle down, then you will be fine. Allow the settling and act once it's done, and do what you can in the meanwhile. But neither act in the reform, nor stay passive after it.

That seems so paradoxical, like clapping with one hand Isn't even self reflection lost at this point?

I'll confess that when I saw that video years ago in my egoic state I said: On that full moon I'll take MahaSamadhi... like a badass yeah

This probably is not going to help much but it's the truth. You need an Awakening to see it, to recognize. It honestly doesn't still make full sense how it all works out the way it does, but when you experience it directly for yourself, again and again for years... well we could say that something changes in you and there is a paradigm shift.

That's more wanting Silence is the answer then

If you want to infuse consciousness in the reality of sex, which you can or cannot do and both are fine. You will discover that if you are a man, masturbation and sex ARE okay but EJACULATION is what deploys your energy system. Have Sex and Masturbate but DON'T EJACULATE. This is the truth behind the dogma if you care to become conscious of how the sexual energy really works, which you don't have to and will also live a natural life as animals do.

It is safest to say that direct-experience is ALL you have. It's just a matter of recognition and being integrated to that fact, that's all As a matter of fact all "others" exist through the lens of direct-experience and are born from the raw phenomena as more phenomena, layers upon layers of experience. Isn't this what you are doing right now, first raw phenomena, then pixels, then message, then identity of users online, then creating a separation between us and so on and so forth. Sounds complicated but it's easy once you get it, breathe right now, become aware of the space where you are, sense the feeling of existing, of being, this is it. It's just a inmature question, in the end of the day you will trust yourself and whatever you make up your mind to be reality. You are the source of all authority and power, whether you give it away or you ground it in yourself, that will construct your sense of reality.

I want Leo to be Leo. I want Sadhguru to be Sadhguru I want you to be yourself. I want myself to be genuinely myself.

UPDATE: Three large corporate media houses – The Washington Post (US), Outlook Magazine (India), and Dinamalar (Tamil Nadu, India) – removed their articles that carried disinformation against the Supreme Pontiff of Hinduism (SPH) Nithyananda Paramashivam and KAILASA. It is probable that in the following weeks other newspapers start removing their articles in a domino effect. I feel it is my duty to give you another perspective of what is going on and you make up your mind: Nithyananda is like the Pope but for hindu's and Kailasa like the Vatican. His vision is to make an Enlightenment-centric Country, a whole Ecosystem and lifestyle, where everything helps you to realize ParamaShivoham. Parama (Ultimate/Infinity) Shivo (God/Consciousness) Ham (that's me). His core teaching is this Mahavakyas: ॐ (Om) Nithyananda (Nithya= already, ananda=love/bliss) ParamaShivoham. Which is roughly translated as: I am already blisfully God. Om Nithyananda ParmaShivoham. He says that the only reason he is alive is to tell this one truth, you are Paramashiva, you are God. The technology he has used and teaches are the different Hindu sampradayas or paths, which he is a Master in all and was thoroughly trained since he was 3 years old. A as well as his family before he was even born, based on some astrological predictions and as per the science of incarnation, master's from the incarnation sampradaya tested the young kid to know if he was an avatar. It was confirmed so, from that point he learned from many Gurus that also recognized him as such. You could razionalize it as a way to recognize superconscious human mutants. Taken care and raised by Gurus from Tiruvannamalai, his birthplace, like Sri Ramana Maharishi, Yogi RamsuratKumar, Tatwale Baba... to name a few. Mastering many sampradayas and attaining the highest realization in all: Kashmir Shaivism, Shaktism, Jnana Yoga, Advaita Vedanta, Bhakti Yoga, Deity Worship, Mantra&Sound, Karma Yoga, Hatha Kundalini and Kriya Yoga (In 1999, amidst the Himalayan landscape of Gaurikunth, Babaji bestowed upon him the name Paramahamsa Nithyananda), Tantra, Ayurvedic Medicine, Siddha Tradition... It is precisely these broad mastery of such diverse paths which is both his greatest strength and turn off, now we can appreciate why he is so misunderstood. Let's now reflect upon his life: Reviver of Kailaasa the Ancient Enlightened Hindu Civilizational Nation Declared as successor Of Arunachala Sarvajnapeetam by Guru Parampara Coronated as Guru Mahasannidhanam (Pontiff) of Thondaimandala Aadheenam, the oldest monastic university, at the tender age of 10 (in 1998) Founded: The mission Nithyananda Sangha at age 21 (in 1999) – to Revive the Enlightened Civilization Founded Adi Kailasa at age 25 (in 2002) Coronated as 293rd Guru Mahasannidhanam of Madurai,SHYAMALAPEETHASARVAJNA PEETHAM the oldest Hindu papal state and the monastic kingdom at age 34 (in 2012) Officially coronated as Mahamandaleshwar (Supreme Spiritual Head) of Maha Nirvani Akhada largest apex monastic order, the youngest Mahamandaleshwar at age 35 (in 2013) Declared as Acharya Mahamandaleshwar of Atal Akhada (the oldest monastic order in Hinduism) at age 35 (in 2013), by Acharaya Mahamandleshwar Sukhdevanandji, the then incumbent spiritual head. Coronated as Guru Mahasannidhanam of Swargapuram at age 37, Chola Dynasty’s Guru’s unbroken lineage from the 13th century (in 2015) Elected as a Supreme Pontiff of Hinduism by a congregation of 1000 Hindu leaders (Pontiffs), at age 38 (2016) Revered as Teacher of Hinduism, most prolific, most viewed, read & watched Over 10,000 hours of discourses, over 1 billion views on social media Respected as Commentator of all Sacred Scriptures such as Upanishads, Bhagavad Gita, Shiva Sutras, Yoga Sutras, Ashtavakra Gita, Jain Sutras, etc. Reviver of Ten ancient Hindu Sampradayas in the border of extinction including the Rudrakanyas/ Rudras, Rishis / Rishikas, Bhairavas / Bhairavis, Sanyaasis. Founder & Reviver of Over 100 Sarvajnapeethas First ever leader in the history of India to be the succesdor of both south and north temples. Establisher of the Largest Hindu University in the world with satellite campuses in 110 countries Establisher of 1000+ Kailaasa enlightenment ecosystems Holder of Three Guinness World Records in the field of Yoga Collector of The largest Hindu library with over 1 million books, 1 million palm leaf scriptures, and over 20 million digital books Authored 300 books in 26 languages, with over 20 Million books and articles sold, read and downloaded What approach do I recommend to his work? This is tricky, very tricky. Don't become part of his organization, why? Because it's for a hindu and oriental psyche. Also people are people, as this forum is this forum despite Leo. What should be your approach then? INITIATION Don't listen to what he says, the best he says in silence and INITIATION. So if you resonated with him search for Bhava Samadhi Darshan Nithyananda. He enters in powerful meditation trances and is able to transmit divine aspects of Reality, different forms of God (Murthys). Experiment and see which form you like more. I like Mahasadashiva, Kalabhairava and Dakshinamurthy for example. Then do your sadhana, and enter consciously into darshan, connect with ParamaShiva. Once you like a form and you have some experience, take a psychedelic and watch darshan, now you will be blown away. If anyone does it, feel free to post here your experience.

Uniting both topics of today. Minute is tunned in the juice of the video:

Good question, something he must have worked hard for in the past. Years ago he always talked about the importance of being financially independent. In his video about building infrastructure gives some hints about this. He also bought himself a new computer some weeks ago which means he really took care of this area of his life. He also explained many times how his family was not that good with managing money and how he suffered because of that, which surely made him very aware of money managing skills. Nevertheless, I don't want to answer for him, this is a humble contribution.

It all boils down to Self-Love that is the root, depending on where you are in the spectrum in each moment some things come up or other things come up, simple as that

I have no need of doing or saying anything; there never was any need, neither is there now, nor will there ever be in future. What you found manifested in me in the past, what you see now and what will be observed in the future is only for the good of you all. If you think that there is something peculiarly my own, I must tell you that the whole world is my own.

Recommended to watch after sadhana or while on psychedelics. This was his favourite chant. Jay is exaltation, means like Hurray. Bhagavan is God, ALIVE GOD

It's good but I have to say I expected much more

After that video is when the work starts, before that we are just aping

A bit long for my taste but it gives a high quality big picture of Saudi Arabia

I'm happy to hear that. Base line consciousness is becoming more and more important for me

what can you give back to someone that gave you God?

Yeah man, I'm almost crying. It sometimes feels vulnerable to express how you feel. Without glorifying Leo, i've just realized how much my life has changed just because of him. It's also sometimes hard to get the message across but yeah I'm just filled with gratitude and love right now.

@Leo Gura I wonder if you are aware of the impact you had on so many people. I don't think you realize honestly. I've had an extremely good life, i've been so fortunate in so many levels, yet your contribution in my life is unparalleled. If anything, I do have to say thank you and that I appreciate you. I hope you are doing good and taking care of yourself. It's an egoist love as it is biased in many ways, but I do feel some genuine connection with you and your work. It really resonates with me. Take care and I don't know why but i do feel like being emotional. I love you and really thank you. I've been awakening very deep lately and you have made the difference, you have given me the tools man.

As the saying goes, don't follow the sages but what the sages follow

“To lose control over oneself is not desirable. In the search after Truth one must not allow oneself to be overpowered by anything, but should watch carefully, whatever phenomena may supervene, keeping fully conscious, wide awake, in fact retaining complete mastery over oneself. Loss of consciousness and of self-control are never right. While absorbed in meditation, whether one is conscious of the body or not, whether there be a sense of identification with the physical or not – under all circumstances, it is imperative to remain wide awake - unconsciousness must be strictly avoided. Some genuine perceptivity must be retained, whether one contemplates the Self as such, or any particular form. What is the outcome of such meditation? It opens up one’s being to the Light, to that which is Eternal.”
