This queation can be expanded beyond just your brother to the whole humanity. "how to act in a way that will help others" and there is no logical answer to it really that could be put into a box or a technique. There's no technique. Appropriate uplifting action comes spontanuously when that intelligence beyond thought is cultivated. That's how a sage functions. Yes. You have to become Jesus Christ to help your brother. ? okey I went too far with this one just for fun. But you get the point i think.

That's not good enough imo. There are literally infinite number of exceptions to every advice. Even if O was to say "show him compassion" there're like infinite number of exceptions to not do that and when it is not appropriate to do that. How will you logic your way out infinite possibilities? The wise way is to function from a place of intelligence that is beyond thought. But it's a far out thing to say, I know. It's not satisfying answer to your question probably. But I would argue that it's the only answer there is...

The point is, nobody here can't even picture the problem properly. Just because he was described as a 21year old, and few other things that he likes, doesn't describe the whole picture. It's impossible to describe it. There's a whole matrix of things happening beyond conceptual level even. Only you can know how to act appropriately in that situation by being in tune and sensitive to the entire soup of things that are happening and adding your own taste to it. Looking for logical mental answers won't substitude for lack of consciousness. There's an intelligence that knows how to act without thinking. Cultivating this inteligence is your answer to all these type of questions imo. But it's a long term answer. Short-term answer idk. Perhaps there is none.

I doubt you'll find your answer like this on a forum. Each situation is unique, and each moment is different. All one can do I would say is to cultivate the wisdom and awareness much higher so that when the next situation comes you will know what to do from within spontanuously out that state of higher intelligence that knows what is the appropriate thing to do without thinking. That would be my 2cents.

I assume you want to know more about this. I enjoy being able to share this. Keep safe.

Yeah, of course, butthole sunning technique combined with 5meo plugging technique is highest thing no doubt.

5meo dmt - makes you better at everything. Makes your dick longer also. Saves 40years of meditation practice. What can't it do?

Maybe the third eye is opening from too much meditation. Try this butthole sunning technique to ground your energies

How does that work?

Thoughts get accepted as real because there is no experiencial discernment between psychological reality and existencial reality. Lack of awareness or discernment basicly is the cause of suffering concepts. Concepts would have no impact if discernment was absolute between what is temporary and what is eternal. Edit. I THINK!. It makes sense to me at least.

Thought = energy? Thought = movement of desire? No thought = no movement of desire, no seeking, no seeker? Edit, okey I see what you meant now. Energy, desire, movement are concepts also.

I believe if total disidentification were to happen. In other words, the realization that I'm pure awareness, nothingness dawned in you. Personal identity would collapse. And without identity all thinking would collapse with it. Because identity is the cause of all thinking actually. So to answer the question, if you achieve one, you get the other aswell. if you disidentify from thinking thoughts will stop, and if you stop thinking, disidentification will happen. They kinda go together imo. I would argue that to be the case. Don't know really.

I think nothing can be sayed without identity. Even if you're not using the words like "I", "my", "mine" it is still silently implied in speach somewhere. For example, if I was to say, "Wow, the Sun is beautiful" then the question would be beautiful to whom? Beautiful to "me", so "I" identity is still there just not articulated. There're are only two words in dictionary "I" and "not me". If "I" word is not defined, "not me" loses all it's meaning. Duality would collapse also and all definitions along with it. Without identity nothing can be sayed I'm saying. Or at least I would argue this to be the case. I don't know really

Better take a shower and clean your room. That will be 10x times more progress on your wellbeing then lsd imo.

@Raptorsin7 yeah, my understanding is limited about these things. It's a mysterious thing. That's the purpose for which that book was created for. I think you'll find some of those answers on the way. I don't know myself all of the details. Yeah same. I would describe it as daily food for the spirit. Just connecting daily for a few minutes and marinating in that vibration of Christ and then going about your buiseness, the progress is still happening on the unconscious level I think. Like watering a seed. There's no need to pour water on a seed 24h a day. Just little bit everyday until the seed sprouts into a tree and can survive without any support anymore. Most of your questions are answered inside acim itself i think. The book was written be a god after all.

It's sort of like transmittion of energy. Like if there are two logs, one is burning like a forest and another is dry. If you put these two logs together, the one that is burning very intensely will infect the other log that is dry. This can happen through a guru or a transmittion like shakti pad or by reading a powerful book which was written from that place of high consciousness and carries that vibration. Personally reading a few sentences a day from acim does magic to me. Totally different world opens up even tho I do the same thing which is doing nothing and being present but the difference is unmistakeable. Same can be experienced with different temples or consecrated spaces. If somebody was to walk in and just be present and open, there would be a very different and distinct quality to it. And that subtle thing makes all the difference between success and failure in spiritual endeavours imo. If you’re little sensitive the best way is just to meet an enlightened being in person and see, the energy will hit the ocean of tears in you ? that's grace. How to receive it? Just be empty in state of presence. Having a pure heart is also good, because arrogant, lustful, full of cravings mind is not a very good recepticle. ? Maybe somewhat relative example below that can give you an idea of what grace means. (I know you don't like sadhguru, in exchange ill watch one of the Newman's video) ? https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=UO-phfzKa7o

This. That's why grace is so important for spiritual growth. No grace, no significant progress imo. But few are able to see it...

Doesn't the same logic apply to you? God (me) is dreaming Leo to keep myself asleep?

"Eat my flesh, drink my blood, and become me" Christ. The idea of this method to meditate and absorb higher energies is that if one can become one with christ he will automatically know everything that Christ knew. All his knowledge and wisdom and states of consciouness can be poured into you. That's how one can learn to do miracles and healing. It is simply being downloaded from christ. Or Christ just do the miracles through them. (It's nicely explained in acim actually) In india people do the same thing with deity worship. Some yogis would create powerful energy forms that if imbibed would give people who imbibed it siddhic powers and enchanced perception and states of consciouness and what not, everything that was put into that energy form can become yours if imbibed. It's the same science. Except a different deity. Using Jesus as a deity instead of Kali or smth. Different energy forms can give you different benefits and different states of consciouness. Fascinating topic, fascinating side of spirituality.

This is very good. Grace has more significance then spiritual practice itself. People neglect the role of grace in their spiritual growth. What you did was classic example of how to meditate on Christ. Reading spiritual books is extremely good way of doing it. Even for example if one reads echkart tolle's power of now a few sentences or a page it would automatically transport him to that state of peace and presence that echkart tolle was writting from. It's very useful support for spiritual growth and it has benefits beyond normal people's comprehenshion that will elevate the seekers life in many ways. It's a real phenomena, even reading some angry person's comment on a forum can do many negative things to you. So reading stright from god has much more spiritual significance. Acim is probably the most powerful way to connect with Christ imo. Very powerful. Because it was written from pure love, the words have that same vibration and it can just suck you into that state. The prerequisite to be able to do that is receptivity. And receptivity will come naturally if you can keep the person aside and abide as pure concious presence. Handle that one thing and grace will do rest. Godspeed ?

I thought of another example that may be useful. In music there's such a thing as playing in tune and out of tune. If one plays in harmony and in rythm with the band it sounds harmonious and appropriate and beautiful. If somebody plays out of tune and out of rythm it sounds like shit. Good and bad are concepts, but harmony and disharmony is existencial. Just some thoughts I thought I'd share. ?

Authentic means natural. It's like when people put a camera in front of somebody and say act natural and then they put a nonchalantè posture for no reason. That's inauthentic ?

Having a relationship can be a beautiful experience for sure. But so does sky diving. Nobody complains about being a virgin at sky diving. Beautiful experiences and exploration of life is good but it's secondary compared to spiritual work. Confusing the priorities can be a problem imo.

@softlyblossoming lol ?

@paprika perhaps there is a way to use alcohol in a positive way, but you're walking on a minefield with this logic imo. There are better ways to improve one's life imo.
