@Joseph Maynor yes. its relative. gravity is lower in the assemby as in higher energy, than even space time, so likely..no....technically possible....yes. the relativity is the issue though. have entities ever done this on earth.....i say yes, and the giant fuckin shroom foreheads are a baltant clue.

@Electron fearlessly doing what I want right now.

@WaterfallMachine thank you

@heisenburger Pick what you want to do. Read a book about it. That will feel best. Love the name.

@spicy_pickles On a positive note....the trouble with getting meditation started and habitual is indicative of the amount of growth you will gain from it. You lucky bastard. Feelin a little jelly.

@Will You're too smart for me Will! Brilliant!!!! Enjoy!

@Max_V Start with 20 minutes a day. Start with meditation and be aware of all the sensations within you body. Be aware of the sensations around you, sound, air, etc. Shift your focus back and forth between the two. Let them merge together as they naturally already are. Ask what am I. Watch Leo's 3 part enlightenment videos. IMO he did an incredible job with them.

@Brody Just experience the trip. Don't try to hold to a preset agenda. Do the opposite. Let go of EVERYTHING. No party favors needed. No disco ball. No killer sound system. No person, no thing. The best of what's around is already right in you. Let the trip have your filters. Give them away.

@Will If you did the practices, you would be able to put it all together for your self. You can't explain anything 'wrong'. Keep expressing yourself as honestly as possible in every moment. When you're barfing up words from a mediocre place, don't try to rationalize it. See the words for what they are. See the trajectory they are coming from and where they will be taking you to. Change that trajectory using you words, writing, thinking, running, meditating, eating better....whatever, just make sure to change the trajectory. You think you know what wake up means?

@Will Last night most of my friends had beers, etc, and celebrated 4th of July. We all had a good time. Not sure how they're feeling or what they might or might not get done / accomplished today. Today may be a day they continue on their path, or it might be a day of recovery, and perhaps tomorrow they get going again and pick up where they left off. Do you see how what we're doing / not doing is what matters and so heavily influences what we think and therefore how we feel, which loops back to what we are doing right now. You must interrupt the cycle you are in. The probability is that you will do things today most similar to what you've been doing in all the previous days. Don't do that. CHoose well being. CHoose your connection.Do different. It is possible. I'm running my 50 minutes right now and then meditating for 30 min, so I know how today will go for me. I'll be connected,creative, loving, open minded, energetic and in love & awe, even if for only today, with God, the Universe and everything that is possible. Thinking does not get us very far. You've mastered it. You're the smartest person in the entire fucking Multiverse. Now practice your way to non-thinking.

@alyra The mind is like the eyes. You are seeing what you are looking at.

@mia_lea They're not problems, they're the vehicle by which you grow & expand. See your friend in challenges.

@Preetom it already has. i wish the same you!! thanks!

@Joseph Maynor thanks

@nahtanoj Thoughts then emotions. If you want to feel differently about it, think differently about it.

@Preetom I gave my car to a stranger in need at Blockbusters and walked home. I have given guitars to just about anyone I know who is wanting to learn, as well as always offering free lessons. I helped a homeless guy literally get cleaned up and hired him. It worked out good. I road a bike 300 miles in 3 days and raised enough money on Facebook for a MakeaWish kid to go to Disneyworld. I hired a kid fresh out of college into a six figure job and offered him what limited PD I know. It was his very first job. I paid off my parents mortgage and bought them a car, so my dad could retire. Last month, I donated money to the local em elementary school so the kids could do a project where they made a big pyramid and learned about ancient practices. Last week, I made the down payment on a house for someone struggling. I point out to people that they have free will. When my son has night terrors, I hold on to him until it passes. When people talk, I listen and focus on the best them in hopes they see it to. This is the only post we really need. I hope it "trends". Giving can be infectious.

@nahtanoj Buddhism is about awakening your self. There's no such thing as a Buddhist follower, it's doing the practices or not doing the practices, right? (assuming their not asking you to donate money, or trying to molest you, save the world, open another 'campus', etc). You are going there and doing practices. Doing the work. Not worshiping, right? I don't see respect & acknowledgement as accepting dogma. "If you meet the Buddha in the road, kill him."

@TeamBills If you are doing what you enjoy then there really isn't anything to Solve. We can only check the validity of this within our selves. The point is be joy. To be without suffering. To live a life you would live again in a heartbeat.

@Socrates In meditation, let the thoughts pass. Don't react to them. This is a practice which develops the ability to focus on what you want & how you want to feel. Over time, with enough practice, you won't react to much, if anything at all. When you master that, now you're creating you & creating your life. Those unwanted thoughts won't even arise any more, no more monkey mind. It takes time, enjoy the process & celebrate the victories.

@Annetta Once you get the momentum going you will be feeling great. You simply got momentum going in the wrong way. You're smart, you're beautiful, you're hilarious when you're vulnerable enough to be silly, you have learned so much that you're just flat out better than this, you can do anything you want. (Thought I'd kick start the momentum a little)

@Mondsee Follow up question. What is your imagination? Also, just pondering through some cardio...For a paradox to exist, there has to be two true things that don't coalesce. We both know ultimately all is one thing. So it must be that you see a paradox here because you can't make sense of / see the correlation between the two points.

@harisankartj If there's no free will, can you explain to me why I am choosing such different things than those around me? (Food, health, etc) Also, am I understanding you correctly that sometimes you are not in "metaawareness" and are choosing, and sometimes you are in "metaawareness" and are not choosing? It seems that you are stating that free will is, like all things, relative.

@Prabhaker Good morning Prabs! Am I interpreting your (Osho's) sentiment correctly? You (Osho) are saying there is free will, but then it is limited by physics / gravity / source?
