@MsNobody I thought you think highly of those who embrace their sexual energy... 😓

Amen indeed. All energy is innocent. Let no stone be left unturned, let it all be imbued and embraced with the Christ Light and transformed into greater Glroy. La-alahm, Ahl-meen, Amen.

Because you believe that happiness itself has turned its back on you. It's not the rejection that hurts but the perception of seperation. It's a perception that disconnects you from the truth, so it has to sting naturally.

I think she's asking for a good kick in the ass. That's what I would give her, and I donate to charity regularly.

That's not a good way to measure one's level of compassion. There are a milion reasons why you'd be suspicious of strangers asking you for money on the internet. Those who said yes are actually suckers who got scammed lol. And it's not like being compassionate automatically implies you'll become a yes man to every person's whim. There're so many problems with this test. Super lame

It's the price one pays for becoming honest. Every archetype exists in everyone if they were to accept it. Paradoxically it also makes you more unconditionally loving and less judgemental. Some would call it shadow work maybe.

It seems I need to work a bit more on being more vanilla.

It's a harmless belief. When the moment of truth comes I will adjust my position accordingly. One good argument why it's not an alien spaceship is that, if it was, we'd already be sending nukes to it, lmao.

I'm going to believe it's aliens because that's more fun.

Dying alone is not that bad.

Isn't there a war in Myanmar right now? I support doing long retreats tho.

Emptyness is impersonal, has no expectations and therefor cannot be surprised. It was your ego trying to flex itself with the so called "enlightenment" by creating this theatrical surprise.

Nice attempt to give yourself validation that you're enlightened. 👍 Very smooth

It's not just about reproduction. Women a geared and wired differently on every level. On the biological, psychological, elemental, energetic and even planetary level women are geared differently that makes them better at doing certain types of work. And vise versa. Everyone has a role to play. If you were born a fish but you're not very good at it yet for whatever reason, you're chances of being a good sky dweller is not any greater. It's just a cop out from taking responsibility for your role. You're already a piece of art and God is the artist. You're not a finished work of art tho. To perfect yourself as a piece of art that you are, you have to aim for divinity and be as healthy as you can in the meantime on all levels. If by the end of your perfection and deification you magically transform into a pussy, then so be it. But if at the end of your perfection and enlightenment you become a handsome, healthy, confident, wise man, then so be it aswell.

You just don't notice it when you feel like a man because that's your baseline feeling. It's like a fish that never knew what it feels like to be dry because water is the only thing the fish ever knew. And then you got small moments of dryness (feminine nature) and you thought: "wow, what is this new feeling, I feel like a woman, wow!". That one moment of dryness will be more memorable than 20years of sea wetness because it's so different than anything you've experienced before. It can feel like freedom even because you've allowed an expansion of your being, you've allowed what has been suppressed for a long time because of social conditioning aswell. And then your mind wants to make a big deal of what is not a big deal at all. Really you don't give yourself enough credit of how masculine you truly are because it's just your baseline feeling that gets unregistered.

I wonder if this self-hatred and the feelings of shame and inadequacy had something to do with the shaping of your philosophy.

Sounds like something sadhguru would say. Nice. That's a good observation imo.

I think you'd have more more success trying to heal your HPG axis issues, than trying to change your chromosomes. If you can put your soul into oven and transform it into an entirely different animal, than apply that same philosophy into becoming a healthy male that you were born to be. Afterall you can't escape your masculine nature. We all have the masculine and the feminine inside. Might aswell own it. Embrace your feminine nature but not at the cost of suppressing and mutilating your masculine nature. Let them both shine. Then you'll be a complete human being.

I believe embracing both your masculine and feminine nature is a huge upgrade. And also honoring the body for the function it was designed for. It's not your role to perform functions of a biological woman if you're born a biological male and vice versa. Embrace the role nature has given you.

Higher conciousness is the fruit of many practices, yes. But there is a unique element with Isha where the grace of a Guru comes alive in your life. And the practice is there to maintain the connection with that grace. And that grace is cleaning your house from within and transforming you. That's why a simple practice can have way bigger results than you'd normally expect. But to have that access and relationship with that grace one needs to participate in a program. His most advanced programs are more like a wedding than a teaching of instructions really. It's a very different way of growing spiritually that is not suitable for everyone. It fits only specific type of people. Others are best if they are filtered out. I know from experience

I think sadhguru's reply would be that what he has to share doesn't fit into a book. And I would probably agree with that. When it comes to Isha's system, there's an element of inviting a new intelligence into your life that you can't get through normal techniques. That new intelligence shifts everything about you, what you eat, how you think, people you hang out with, how you dress, your direction in life etc. It's not the practice he is offering that you can do and improve your life. He's offering you a completely new life. And it's not for everyone and sadhguru knows it, that's why he puts filters around it, so that only those who are meant to part of this movement would be there. At advanced programs they will even interview you to really make sure you belong there before they allow you to attend. They are very selective over who they initiate. That would be my take on it.

A proper IE program should've been like 4days long with 5-7hours each day. If you do the introduction at home, then the program is 2days long.

It's possible that you were just repressing the feminine energy inside. Many men have a subtle fear of being feminine actually, perhaps they see it as weakness maybe. As the collective consciousness is rising, suddenly you find yourself accepting parts of you that you have held closed. Suddenly you feel like a woman and your mind will try to interpret that experience and say: "oh you must be in a wrong body". But that's a wrong interpretation of experience imo. I'd say you're still the same you that you've always been. You're just adding a new color to your beingness. You're adding new qualities to yourself. You're becoming richer and that's beautiful. You're neither male nor female, you're just you that has the qualities of both. And there is literally no need for you mutilate yourself or try to kill your masculine nature with chemicals. Own your masculine nature. That way you'll be a much more complete human being.

That's wholesome, I'll admit.
