Very nice video to rewatch, thank you for bringing it up to the present again ?

What if you desire something so much that it causes you suffering. Meat is a small desire!

The journey of life is a hardcore one. Preach it brother! Level 2017: Go.

How happy do you have to be if you realise you are not fearing your biggest fear right now? Instant state of bliss - less than one hit of marijuanna - because it allows me to see my real fears and realise if I am not experiencing them (in the present) I should be in a state of permanent elation. What more could one ask for. I can feel myself flowing. I love meditation. LOVE. To feel good in the body is LOVE.

Hey guys, I decided to write on YouTube the frowned upon phrase : "best way to attain enlightenment" - First video showed up was Leo's, but I've seen it before and I wanted to watch something new, so I opened the second link: Have you guys seen this? I find it pretty interesting, even though the claim might seem a bit silly. I don't really know if he is speaking bullshit, and I actually like what he's saying. I guess the question remains - who am I? See you in 48 minutes, guys.

Maybe 10-20 years is over-exaggerated. It all depends on the interest/commitment, resources available, open-mindedness and bullshit-detector (oh and practise). I do see a lot of close minded people though, to whom maybe 20 years won't be enough to prepare their mind.

Don't know why this is not posted yet here, the title seems too inviting

Isn't this a focusing exercise, and can be trained by reading? When I read I catch myself drift off into thought the most (maybe when I am doing other stuff I am not that attentive to my thoughts). But with training, the mind drifts off way less and it's like taming a horse somewhat

I really enjoy this talk also right now! Flowing with the Youtubes

Enlightened people can't write?

Did I just have a freakin mystical experience????

Don't rly understand this thread, but saw dream a lot and I do love dreams. I've had some pretty intense dreams and I don't even know if some of the things I classify as dreams were dreams or something much much bigger, because when I look back, it felt like much more. Meh, no need for me to speculate - if it's not in the present moment right now it's not real. (If I get taken by aliens and anal probed, get back on forum, I will make sure I say the same lol! Power of now rules :D, no need to complicate my life)

If nothing wasn't, there wouldnt be such confusion over what is ??

It just dawned on me: What if John Cena is referring to the atman when he says "You can't see me"?? Enlightened as f

"Anyway, if you see yourself as the paper being drawn on... Can you see what the problem is if you, as the white paper, begins to identify yourself as what's drawn on you? What if the boy draws something ugly and bad? You would cry... However, if you realize you are not whats drawn on the paper, but that you are the paper itself, then you cannot be hurt... Unless the boy tears up the paper lol:D" Wow, i actually most this life had in the back of my mind this idea that i drew my life as an angel-like entity, actually guided by my guardian angel. Everyone in turn would get sat and draw on a magic sheet that will transform what you draw into infinity, but with the taste if what was drawn. So i think I've drawn my life in a way, but i didnt identify with the paper nor the drawn, but with the one that was doing the changes in the drawing! woo deep shit

THe word weed was never said. all i said was blaze it. Hitler definitely blazed it

How can you know this is the truth with such certainty: what if this is your minds way to think itself into continuing to feed itself even after your realisation that it is an illusion that you are the mind. An illusion that you can add something to yourself and an illusion that you are diving deep? Many people including me, think or have thought they #knowthetruth, but wasnt the first thing we had to admit in this journey that the mind will never know. We can only speculate and experience, but one thing i know for sure is i have to detach and let go. This deep diving sounds to me like the opposite of letting go, you just change the thing you hold on to to something different. How can there be x,y,z if there's only y? Isnt x's(ego's) biggest dream to be the z(immortal being, spirit ), which is still just illusion on another scale? Ego on a spiritual level, still allowing for Other and war. Isnt the eternal z still only an infinite river flowing into the absolute infinity, which Leo talked about. Isn't that half-way enlightenment? An enlightenment devil? In other words, if you trully have no ego and realised all is one, shouldn't you be fine with being shallow as much as being deep - since there is nowhere further to go? Enlightenment has levels now?

Actually, im one of those geeks, and sorry, but i already found the deeper meaning: 42 is 420 in disguise, since 0 is replaced with nothingness to confuse the layman. The answer to everything (meaning of life), therefore is "blaze it"

If one can always go deeper, why even dive? Doesn't this become ego war for who will dive deeper? Also if there are no separate I's between which two entities are we comparing whether one is deeper than the other? Is this diving deep notion designed for those of us still stuck in ego? If all is one, in the end the deep and the shallow have played equal importance to all this - no importance at all, since truth never changes (I've been told)

Can get enlightened just by watching this I think

So about duty. Its all awesome, but what happens when you are not skillful enough to perform your duty? What if the bodymind doesn't have the energy to perform its so called duty? Can ones duty be to have no duty and just do things as one sees fit, since there is only one anyway and one has accepted that there is nothing to be gained or lost? - hence no right or wrong action /inaction Considering only attachment is the problem, one should still be, without problems or negative self impact, able to perform selfish action, as long as non attachment is there. As long as one knows who they really are.. What the bodymind does becomes completely irrelevant no??

I think he's krishna from bhagavad gita. I cant close my eyes to similarity in the way he speaks. He Must've read it recently like me. @Krishna, cant one celebrate Christmas with detachment too?

Wow, this video is great. I really like what this guy is saying. I need to slow down for sure - I don't need to be the smartest, the best, in a relationship, in pleasure, etc. I just need to be, and I am. Karma yoga is definitely something I am interested in now and it starts here and now.

This should be tought in school!

Doesn't this actually prove that something (an infinity) that might look smaller is actually the same as the " bigger" infinity?
