Wohoo!

Gnana yoga exists for a reason.

Using intellect to achieve enlightenment is not unknown phenomena. There is a thing called gnana yoga for a reason.

Do not conform any longer to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is—his good, pleasing and perfect will. —ROMANS 12:2 Happy new year

Borrow it from those who have it until yours becomes as certain as theirs. By association you can aquire qualities of another entity without doing the work yourself. That's the meaning of grace.

I believe the message Maharaji was trying to send is that psychedelics are a child play to an enlightened yogi. Not the message that his genetics don't respond to this particular substance. That would've been a useless message.

Ok 🙏

What sounds aprupt af may actually make sense once you allow yoruself to really study his logic. Which I myself haven't spent the time to do so. But I suspect it would take a long time because he does not explain much in those videos, he just drops the final conclusions of decades worth of contemplation.

I think his work is about giving a logically consistent model of reality that proves the existence God. Not really about entering God conciousness samadhi. I'm under the impression to fully understand the model he made and to successfully understand the amount of logic behind it would take a very serious study. It's just my personal impression tho.

His logic and thought process is much more complicated than that. Honestly it's hard to follow his thought process because he doesn't even explain how he arrives at his conclusions most of the time. He just shares the end result of his decades worth of contemplation. To really understand his position would take enormous amount of digging into his work imo.

Just understand this one thing: Joy excludes suffering. Wisdom excludes stupidity. Faith and trust excludes fear and doubt. Because it's a spectrum. Those on the spectrum of suffering are excluded from Joy. Those who are on the spectrum of fear are excluded from perfect faith and trust. Those on the spectrum of stupidity are excluded from wisdom. Those on the spectrum of hell (stupidity, fear, suffering, limitation) can be called to be excluded from God's kingdom(Joy, love, wisdom, perfect faith and unlimitedness) . What side of the spectrum you fall is your responsibility.

I had some French fries recently. Does that count?

Relying on other people's opinions is a poor way to arrive at truth. It probably doesn't even work in the end.

Allow me to give an example. If you were growing a garden and somebody ripped it out, you'd feel like they ripped a part of you. If someone ripped out a garden from somebody else's garden that you're not responsible for. You'd feel as if it has nothing to do with you.

Your sense of self is as large as your willingness to take responsibility for. What you feel responsible for is what you feel as part of yourself. What you don't feel responsible for you feel like it has nothing to do with you. You can make your responsibility and sense of self to be total zero. Leading to complete detachment from life. Or you could make your responsibility and sense of self infinite, leading to infinite love and endless creativity which is but an expression of God's will/love.

To drop attachment to life is easy. Are you ready to take responsibility for all of life instead?

Your comment is what makes this moment truly beautiful.

Ave Maria holy water straight from a mountain on which Mary appeared in her light body in 1858. Now it became a consecrated site (Lourdes) with a fountain of endless healing water. They were selling these cute little bottles to carry the water with you. Now it will remain a memorable experience for me for a long time 🥹 the only bad thing about it is that I couldn't get a life long supply of this water lol.

December 25th, 2024, Mary Magdalene’s cave in France. I feel like this might have been the peak moment of my life so far. It's otherworldly experience of grace. But an individual's receptivity and ability to drink it in makes a big difference in places like this.

Thank you. Yea I know, why do you think I bothered going all the way there? 😁 Joking. That place is actually a really powerful vortex and has deep history behind it. With her relics, bones at expedition even.

I'm only yourself 🙂 Haha, I'm trying to. I'm trying to hippy you guys all up with some hippy christmas love ♥️🙏🫶

A candle of light lit and dedicated to the fellow forum members (those I get along with and otherwise aswell) today from the Mary Magdalene grotto where she is believed to have lived France. Merry Christmas.
