  1. That is not my assumption. I have no assumptions in the equation. The only thing I am using is the fact that without awareness I do not exist, which is a fact proven by experience. Let's extend the math: Me = X, ok let's use Me instead of X for simplicity. Let's suppose that Awareness is not the only thing that exists. Me = Awareness + Objects in Awareness Lets give those objects in awareness variables = o1, o2,... oN Me = Awareness + o1 + o2 + ... + oN Lets remove object o1 and o2 from Me Me - o1 - o2 = Awareness + o3+o4+o5 +... +oN But since Me - o1 - o2 is still aware, therefore it is still me! LOL So Me is not really a constant, perhaps it is infinity, but check other post for that, we dont want to go on a tangent much. Me = Awareness + o3+ ... + oN Well let's do this to all the objects then Me - o3- o4 -... - oN = Awareness + nothing but since there is Awareness, it is still me! so Me = Awareness also from this line of reasoning, we also prove that Me/Awareness is infinite, since that is the only thing from which you can take or add as many objects and it remains itself. PS: Perhaps Essential Me is the more correct wording. Me = the Awareness + the human components (objects), but the Essential Me, is that only thing without which I cannot be - no matter what that I is - whether it is human or a non-human entity or non-entity - it cannot be Me only if there is no awareness. PSS: I have a counter argument for the equation Me = Awareness + o1 + o2 +.. +oN Now let's remove Awareness from both sides Me - Awareness = o1 + o2 + ... + oN Now we said o1, o2, ... oN are objects In awareness. Since we have no proof that objects can exist outside of awareness, this equation breaks, or you can say the objects become nothing, since they are not experienced. Me - Awareness = Nothing (At least from my POV) In more logical terms, o1, o2, etc are my body parts - they remain on Earth after my "death", but they are not Me, because there is no awareness there. Me = o1 + o2 +... + oN does not work, since there is no awareness there - there would be no experience of these objects, so how can they be me.
  2. I understand what you are saying, but the thing is the only shared element around all those objects that you are mentioning is the Awareness. Without Awareness there is no Brain. Without Awareness there is no Heart. So Brain and Heart are not essential to me. What you are using for the Heart and Brain equations is using assumptions that without a heart and without a brain you cannot exist. This is a belief and not a fact as it is about awareness. Since it is not a fact, you cannot use it in the equation! X-brain = nothing is not a proven fact, while X-awareness = nothing IS a proven fact - proven in our experience.
  3. Deepest gratitude for sharing this song. It's bathing my whole being with bliss and joy. Last 3 songs posted have no lyrics at all
  4. It's easy to say it... As if those things happen automatically... There needs to be much effort to achieve each of those steps, they are independent things that need work on.
  5. The question I asked was in my ♥ Perhaps the answer to it is "The question you asked is the best question you can ask, because you couldn't ask anything else (otherwise you would have) " ?
  6. @MM1988 the real scandal is at 8:31 where he reads the question wrong Oh its a mess.
  7. That materialistic? To me it sounded like the general idea that reality can exist without a perceiver. (At least a human one - which is probably true) Perhaps the only perceiver needed is nothingness/teotl, in which case he is CORRECT.
  8. sounds good, which practice(s) do you use which you think gave you such results?
  9. reading this I remember I had a dream with Eckhart Tolle, we were under a staircase and he kind of showed me without words just that being present there and then is what my purpose is and I felt complete.
  10. I had a self inquiry breakthrough. I did self inquiry in a more focused and deep way than ever before with clarity and intention of going deep. What happened made me freak out enough to not repeat the same intensity ever since. I was lying down on the bed, the sheets all of a sudden started moving as if a strong wind was there - yet I was home. But I had set as an intention to keep the self inquiry NO MATTER WHAT happens. So I kept going and all of a sudden I experienced my body from a 3rd person POV, somehow I was above my body, but at the same time in my body its hard to explain. I could not continue the self inquiry further, I opened my eyes and there I was. Everything was normal again. This experience is pretty paranormal to me.
  11. because if you hit 10000 times in the same spot, you will have better results than if you hit 10000 spots one time each.
  12. Sounds like a severe case of pain body. Try to observe and yet stay detached from these and any thoughts really. Whatever will be will be. Just breathe amd sometimes is best to simply focus on your breathing and putting attention in self inquiry - placing attention on the deepest you you can find for long periods of time. Kriya yoga has never been something I found attractive, because I like simplicity, simple things. Self inquiry is the way.
  13. s e r i o u s l y!!! As I saw this thread I intended to enter and post 3 6 9 without typing anything else only to see it has already been done
  14. Seeking is suffering, not seeking is enlightenment
  15. God cannot be alive as someone in a world, unless he splits himself into a someone and a world.
