What I noticed with my female friends is this - Domt give them all the way. Strike a balance between giving and power. Hold back some. Give some so to make her feel independent. It's a sweet spot you need to hit. Make her feel independent but not too independent that she flies away. You get what I mean.

Shouldn't you ask this in the psychedelics section?

There is no universal truth.

@Razard86 can you message me please. I want to talk about something.

@Razard86 what's your take on enlightenment?

@integral maybe you can message me please. I wanna discuss B12. I don't have enough patience on the forum.

It's a game called "read the room." The game involves being trapped in a zombie apocalypse of spiritual gurus and looking for a safe escape. In the end the gamer sees a dmt molecule and writes a book on awakening. And escapes into a consciousness portal and lands on the milky way and meets Elon Musk who offers him to write his story on Mitter at a whopping price of $20 million. The popularity of Mitter rises exponentially and Musk makes $200 billion through sale and proceeds to pay off his debts. ... Just kidding. Alternatively the game is also called Leo Aura or Lora. Just trolling Leo at this point, because why not.

My random blood sugar is 300. Can diet reverse this. My age is 27.

Make a website exactly like Leo's.

Absolute truth is not an experience. Secondly, it is not an understanding and it happens through no mechanism. Thirdly, it is not an answer to any question. Enlightenment is not a knowing, it is a deep un-knowing. The problem you're having is that you're conceiving enlightenment as some kind of additional belief or emotional state, which it is not. It's something totally alien that you have never thought was possible in a million years. It's not gonna be a "thing" that your ego is going to be able to grasp on to in the way you imagine. You have to really think outside the box on this one.

One thing I have found helpful when observing the thoughts in your mind and bringing attention into the "inner body" is to imagine if you like two clear see-through clouds (one in your head and the other in your body) start by watching yourself literally as if there was a movie screen in front of you sitting at your desk and then by way of special effects you have these two clear clouds inside you constantly moving and changing form. It helps to remind me that I am not my mind and I can for brief intervals hold this realization of the observer watching the thinking mind.

Maybe some people have a distinct delivery style. This could be their personality, way they do things. Just because someone is being soft does not mean their awakening is being more real than someone who is loud. Some people are naturally a bit more expressive and others more shy. Awakening happens in degrees. It's always a work in progress. The demeanor of delivery should not have much to do with the quality of content. You're focused on aesthetics and appeal. Maybe someone who sounds silent, shy and sweet appear less egoic to you but they can play their ego games in much subtle ways, example disagreeing or only agreeing with those who agree with them. You're being a bit superficial here.

Can you properly differentiate the two? I don't think you can.

I'm not a hardcore spiritual person and I don't think I need to be. My main spiritual practices generally revolve around contemplation, insight, inquiry, and sometimes I do have those eureka moments where something just hits and begins to make sense. That being said I find Razard posts very useful most of the time. I don't think that when we enter the arena of spirituality we should heavily skeptical because spirituality by and large is a vague uncharted territory and obviously knowing absolutely even the tiniest bit would need an open mind and a lot of prodding.

Why is this such an important criterion Carl?

I agree.

Saying this life is amazing is also a story.

That's a good way of putting it. I might as well say it goes both ways, whether you're relative or absolute. Although you'll never know the absolute truth under any circumstances because there's no real way to test it, there is still a finite possibility of exploring the truth and extracting something valuable out of it. Think of it this way. An explorer goes to an island. A remote island. He gets too tired by the end of his journey. He cannot explore the whole island but he covered a pretty huge area. In doing so he has learned quite a bit about the island. Not everything but still quite a lot. He has learned enough that he could take this back to his town and put this knowledge to good use. It's not complete. Yet it's enough to get a good idea about the nature of things.

Then my dear friend you'll never know the truth. Look at Leo. He is looking for awakening. He could easily settle dowm But consciousness doesn't work like that. There are levels to awakening.

Of course you chose to be here. You could choose to stay in a palace and still want to clean the palace. You can be in reality and still try to explore the absolute. You're living in the relative. The absolute is still worth exploring.

Because much of life is mere conditioning and it's like slavery to stay addicted to that. Rather open your wings, fly, explore the bounds of consciousness which has no bounds and see what is possible for the mind to experience. Why limityourself at all?

It's not so much about transcending life. It's more about transcending reality.

This feeling when you realize you are love. Bliss that penetrates your every core. Feel it. What else is there except love? Only infinite healing. Infinite love. Infinite gratitude for this existence.. Infinitely falling in love with love. Life is a poetry. If you don't catch the drift you'll play around with the verses and miss the inner meaning. Find it now my friend.

Not wanting to delve into spiritual bypassing. But trauma healing is an essential first step towards your spiritual journey. Heal that inner core in you. I would like to share resources on trauma healing that might be useful for some. Keep waiting. Shalom my lovelies.
