Aren't chakras anti-spiritual tho, since you are not the body, why enforce the illusion even further? Maybe blockage is a good thing for detachment time.

Life - A place where the ordinary is extraordinary. Dream - A place where the extraordinary is ordinary.

The presence is here, even when i stop labeling everything including the body and the mind, there is a presence and i get the thought - "I am" and trump the thought with the actual silent experience of I am. Then i would feel energy in where the body is and i know i am not that, because i perceive it. But there is no object observing, so I must be a non entity, therefore there is no I and the bodymind I refer to as mine is working by itself, because I still am beyond it, looking and verify this. To say i am doing anything i would have to first find the i, but cant find it, although it is always. So I get thoughts like that and trump them with the realisation beyond them, by feeling my unknown presence. Am I doing it right? Well most likely, since i can still feel that I am even though i dont know what, now. To teach the bodymind that it has no I of its own is almost impossible, because it is addicted. Just like smoking, the easiest thing, not to do something, becomes almost impossible, because the body mind is such a sponge. Now we need to re-design the bodymind's habbits from negative to positive, in order to change the dream from nightmare to amazing dream.

Isn't it the case that it could both be true and not true. If the whole of objective reality is subjective reality to a being AKA God almighty (The infinite infinity Leo talked about) , it is real, no? You assume that since you are not the subject for it, it is not an object to some-infinite-thing-subject. Maybe I don't knw what im talking about, but does anyone?

Sam Harris was the one that got me interested in spirituality and meditation to be honest. Because I was very into the illusion of free will and really like his down to earth point of view. First meditation I did was a guided meditation by him.

Hi gang, so most of us would probably agree with the wise words of Buddha and almost every other sage that desire and attachment are the main enemies of peace and happiness. But since it dawned on me that I always am, (whatever that I actually is is beyond the point) hence one should definitely desire to be, since he will never be disappointed! A safe desire to have, because it is always fulfilled, right? We can also put in the category of safe desires the desire for the present moment, since it always is as well. Actually not desiring those things would bring the suffering in this case. The I am and the Present moment, could they be the same thing?(thats a bit offtopic) So hey, what do you think about this? Why would desiring these things that you will always get bring you suffering? Or attachment to those things - since they can never be taken from You, why is it bad to be attached to them? Happy Holidays

The clarity of this guided meditation was a-m-a-z-i-n-g. The words Mooji uses are absolute perfection. I got far more than I expected from this, wow. Going to be returning to it daily I think.

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"
