Sounds like the goal (Ego death), when experiencer and experienced become one and duality is gone.

Thought shows itself and it's sting most when you lose something significant. Relatives, friends, money, possessions, relationship... This is when the thoughts are something you will want to get rid of... You'll remember the same scenario over and over again, and in return hurt yourself over and over. Animals don't do that, enlightened being don't do that. Suffer once at most, at the actual event. God am I thankful for all the practices that help me when a thought tornado comes.

Two people arguing over the truth. Nothing new! Let's have a compromise and be aware of the spaces between thoughts, truths and opinions you're having.

Enjoy

spiritually correct bull-shit

Well, it's not even an object to sit on, this is just how we interpret and use "it". But where does a chair begin annd end? It is also vitally alive, if looked at in closer inspection.

What's also interesting is that in an infinite universe, any point can be considered the center of the Universe.

Neuroplasticity. Absolutely everything makes changes to your brain.

Listening to it IS studying ;P God is a mathematician musician

It could be a joke like... If you're in the red (negative balance) you should invest. Then some clever pun about interest

Watch this thank me later

Also try this. Just enjoy them, relax while using those frequencies... But it's nice to have a good posture, sit upstraight, you'll feel more awake. Just let the vibes do the work, everything we listen to changes the structure of our brain. Even if you don't see changes consciously, work is done on subconscious level. If you listen to things like the above mentioned, there will be positive changes and if you listen to stuff like heavy metal and crap like that - well you get it.. Sound affects water, your body is 70% water

As long as you remember while you get lost to go back to one of the pointers, you're good. It's like getting lost in thought while reading. With practice it ceases.

Your thought is louder than the sound?

Ok, in any way, apart from my placebo objection, meditation is not a placebo, it is scientifically proven to change the "physical" structure of the brain. Anything we do changes us, meditation is the absence of doing, which changes us in unique way, perhaps allowing the Universe to work on us better. More importantly, it creates(or reveals) Space in actual experience. It can be easily proven that meditation works if you do meditation.

Well obviously placebo does work if people are getting cured due to placebo. It's a fact now. "Just placebo" statements make me aggro I do apologize Who cares if it's "fake" or not, if it works? What's important is the result, not how it was achieved right?

Takes no time, just keep centering yourself in the present - use awareness of breath or awareness of sound or awareness of inner body (just to name a few) to recenter. You might feel a tingling/ pressure at the top of your head, this would be the Universe giving you a download / guidance through the crown chakra. Pay extra attention to your dreams / events to come if that happens. Perhaps it's different for different people however, I can only talk from my experience which might not be relevant to you. Alternatively, if the crown is blocked, you could get a headache in that region, so if you do - start doing some chakra work.

I have 26 years breathing experience in my CV

It's only magic Want meditation on steroids without pumping your body with drugs? Here's the solution

placebo really does work this is a joke thread!

I saved a family of snails from getting squished <3 #nature rocks

I enjoyed it too, food for thought awareness

1) My head hurts trying to understand... I'm not a smart guy. 2) You have to get in the matrix to talk about the possibility of going outside of the matrix. What I'm pointing to is not the pointer. The explanation is a movement of thought. Am I doing it? That's the question. Who am I ?

A person can't do nothing, only when you identify as awareness and not as person you realize you're always doing do-nothing. Hehehe Deeper movement of doing? I would guess this is the feeling of "I am doing this" ? I don't know. The dream is a dream of doing. The "practice of do-nothing" is sitting out and challenging that identity by natural noticing, not actually stopping processes.

If it is happening, but I am not doing it, then I am doing nothing The very impulse to try to stop it is where the Ego comes in. That is, being associated with the "doer" and think... Well I shouldn't be doing this right now... So I should stop... When if you see you're not doing it in the first place, that there is not even a you to stop it... Then you realize you're the absolute master of do-nothing. You just can't do anything for the simple reason: You are not the doer, your identity as the doer is the dream, you are beyond the dream and you've never done anything.
