Eskilon

This Sufi mystic might be one of the craziest one's out there. The guy was so integrous and authentic in his realization that he didn't care for his well-being or safety. He was willing to get dismembered, torn apart and chopped to pieces if that meant he truly being himself and living his truth. Now, do you have that in you? He wasn't playing games, no cunningness, calculation or survival. He was no more, only his realization remained. He reached a point where his was ecstatic 24/7, like far far gone. Can you maintain your awakening if I cut your arm off? Will you scream in agony or will your laugh in ecstasy because you know you are not that and you are cutting yourself? Are you so intoxicated with reality that you will laugh even if I cut your hands and feet? Will you go completly against the society and political order for God's sake, even knowing fully that you will get killed and tortured? How deep is your devotion to Reality? Well, I think this Sufi mystic show that there are insane levels of consciousness possible in our baseline state that virtually nobody possess.

From my current understanding, there's no my mind or other minds, all of that is just thinking. Before thinking, there is nobody home. Reality is happening. An unfolding of a process.

Well said. Need to pin this so that no other solipsism thread gets created

Lmao I laughed at this. But it might actually be true, Leo's past might be full of devilry and uncousnciousness. Have his roots deep in hell sort of thing

But then the solipisist can say something like: "But that distinction itself is just an arbitrary thing you made to make sense of reality, there's no such thing as relative and absolute, its all absolute. My d*ck is the only thing that exists". How would you reply?

Fair enough

Usually when I meditate I get some creative or useful insights that are not necessarily spiritual in nature. For example songs, some problem you've been working in your life, understanding of a concept. What do you guys do? Do you ignore them and continue to meditate as normal, do you write those insights? Granted, some of these insights get in your mind and if you don't take note of them they are gone forever(like a insightful dream you will never remember) . This is part of the let go proccess right? -- even if good ideas come to you you let them go away.

They do not fail in my perspective. Think about it, if you really groked that your life is a dream like really, exactly like a lucid dream moment, would you feel shame? Would you care about being rejected by a girl? Would you care so much about money or bullshit like that? You will probably not care so much, and would laught like crazy(as other mystics have done it) into why other people are so serious. Profound insights can rewire and reprogram your entire identity, view of the world and your relationship to it. So yeah, it's extremely practical too but should be pursued for the "gains" but for understanding sake is what I would say.

Not so simple like that. Effort doesn't guarantee Enlightenment. But Thanks for your input.

I think I am going to do that. Need to be really significant like you said for it to not break the flow of meditation in vain.

It depends, some sessions is short others long, but I try doing more than one session a day, at least 2 or more. Not at all, I have very good memory. But, like I said some insights are like dreams, even if you have good memory you are bound to forget most dreams. I can.

Yeah, that's obvious but what I said above is that sometimes if you don't write immediately that insight is lost forever.

Lack of abundance and Incompleteness for sure. If you have done spiritual practice and you have experienced bliss, and temporary completeness, the thought of chasing girls and attraction is non-existent in those moments.

I remember @Razard86 sharing a video or something about this guy. What do you guys think?

Not really. It's actually strange because the concept of time doesnt exist in dreams. It is neither long nor short, it just happens.

If you don't have absolute independence and power then your will is not free at all.

A lie, a wave doesnt get to choose whatever it wants and do whatever it wants, it depends on the oceans will and state.

He just vomited gold?

I think people say it's more real because it last for a lot of time and there's coherence and stability to it.

I'm gonna bend ya and squeeze all the alieness out of your head

How do you know？

How so, who teaches that?

All problems in the world would be solved if we could experience others persons being Forgiving would be almost a silly thing. If you have lived through the experience of any people who have done wrong to you, you would understand instantly why they have done and there would be no problem at all.

But how does this tell if the guy in the video is legit or not？
