Lol I just take herbal tinctures that eliminate heavy metals. Easy pezy.

I think it's an equivalent to the eastern so called "left-hand path." If I had to guess it points to a certain type of energy in existence that is usually destructive. But if harnessed by an adapt yogi, these energies can be used for something good. Like lust, or anger can be called satanic energies. Yet anger or lust are very powerful and intense energies. If someone knows how to harness it without succumbing to it's influence you end up with tremendous energy that can be used for your growth bc enlightenment is just very intense level of energy in the end. It's an orthodox may of doing things that is potentially very dangerous. Bc if u fail to maintain your balance and awareness, these energies can take over you. At least that's my understanding of it. I don't know for sure.

Now that's a story! However, the story is not over. God's light & love will be the end of the story ?

Idk, the idea that a breakthrough can happen only in an intense long retreat and then u lose it afterwards and then one needs to do another intesne retreat to experience it again doesn't seem fully correct to me. I think u can also build your way gently into it. At least in my experience every day i start pretty much from where i left off yesterday and it just builds itself like a stairway. That is my experience with every technique i did. (Kriya, yoga, zen, Christ presence). All of them follow the same principle of gradually intensifying and deepening with each day. What my experience with meditation was 8years ago and how it is now, it's catastrophically different. And i never did any long intense retreats. It simply builds up gradually as u cultivate it. And it stays permenantly. All the peaks i had ever reached, all stayed as a permenant access. I'm quite confident that's the experience of all the meditators who are genuine on their path. Hoping to stirr some self reflection around this topic for people who may have different views on it. I know my direct experience is 100% legit regarding gradual growth and cultivation. Sharing my experience may help some people (Caugh, caugh, Leo.) ? to broaden their understanding of meditation further. Tcare

Serving the atonement is my new way. Hope it sticks bc i'm known for changing my mind very often ? Happy Chinese new year ?

We can surrender things that are in our awareness. But 99% of our resistence is not in our awareness. It lies deep inside the psyche. With practice our awareness deepens and that enables us to penetrate our psyche and let go of more and more layers of resistence. It's a gradual process. Byun Sean told u this already. You're missing good answers. @Carl-Richard

Anything that obstructs the flow of life's energy really. It could be tension, fear, trauma, bad posture, wrong diet, toxic mind, fat ego etc. When all obstructions are eliminated, infinite life force flows through u and we call that enlightenment. We become a singular infinite being like life itself.

@Michael Jackson are you sure u don't know the way out? It's seems pretty obvious to me. There're methods of cultivation different then meditation that can take one into God's love's Presence Glory and Light. These methods are little known about and need to be transfered properly for it to work. Idk why but u seem like a perfect candidate for that. I could share more about it in pm.

Akiane Kramarik started having visions of god and heavenly realms at the age of 4. Flabagasted by inspiration of those visions she started painting these amazing paintings. Makes me cry just watching it. Too much grace in one place. Prodigy child dropped from heaven. Her over 200 paintings can be watched on her website: https://akiane.com/ These are just a few. Enlightenment Eternety is not that long. . . Prince of Peace She sayed in one of her interviews that the places/other heavenly realms she would visit in her "travels" looked like this. Quantum world

There's one particular material that i discovered just now that made me create this stupid journal ? Here it goes: Hildegard. most recent gem from christian community. She was having visions and mystical experiences from the age of 6. And channeled significant amount of wisdom on many levels. What blew my mind is that she wrote an entire system down of herbal healing which is very similar to ayurveda and chinese medicine. It's quite something bc i always wandered why christians have so little material on such subjects and it turns out they do. lol She also wrote about crystals, gemstones, astrology. She painted some interesting pictures that she saw in her visions. She would compose most increadible music aswell. I mean... the women was a genius. Or sage and a mystic rather. A true gem in every way... There i had to get this off my chest. It's was impossible not to share it. By accident i deleted my old journal. Maybe i leave this one to share some future insight that compel me.

This is a good answer also. The energies of fear and anxiety make us contract, become mental and lose touch with reality, the present moment where there is no tension and everything flows naturally and beautifully.

How authentic u are is directly proportional to how connected u are to the presence, it's the only authentic thing in existence. In other words it's a question of your development in consciouness.

Being yourself is what u are when u have no techniques, no plans, no intentions. U're simply there, alert and open. Present. Responding to situation as per your nature. As per the nature of your consciouness and conditioning. If u can be present or stay as presence while talking to someone, your authentic self will shine effortlessly and all the right actions will manifest on its own. Acting with mental techniques, mental planning in advance of what u gonna say, theories and tricks about dating etc is lame. That in general would fall under inauthentic category in my dictionary.

A formal retreat is necessary. It doesn't cost anything. Plus it is very supportive and makes your results much better.

It's a practice designed to eliminate all compulsions. Total wipeout of cravings is its goal.

? Vipassana retreat ? I bet that's one thing you're not willing to do.

To show how lame and unconscious these psychedelic masters are. That's one that comes to my mind

It's like beating a child to make him study better. Sometimes it works but it's still not the way to do things imo.

Your only hope is to adopt some spiritual practice and use it to purify your mind and develop self-awareness/equanimity. If u have an authentic practice going, these urges will drop away at some point. Forcing and suppressing yourself too much is probably not very healthy. I think also if someone performs lots of physical activity he may be able to exhaust that sexual energy into physical action.

Leave me alone bro.

It's all about the power of presence and your ability to stay as presence and not identified with a bundle of thoughts. When you're identified with the movement of the mind u lose presence. When you disidentify from the movement of the mind you create space between your thoughts and yourself. That yourself is called presence. The more you can stay as presence the bigger gap is there between your minds activity and you. When the gap becomes total or when total disidentification from mind activity happens, u reach a place beyond all suffering.

Until one becomes fully enlightened. When one transmutes all animalistic energy into devine energy. When one becomes a buddha.

It's a miracle to hear such information from you i love it. I didn't know about it ?
