  1. Take Spiderman. If you think about him, you have thoughts, feelings. They’re real, right? Real thoughts, feeling, real image of a red and blue lycra suit. But Spiderman is not real. Spiderman does not exist. He is not part of reality. The thoughts and images are—but he isn’t. Self is exactly the same as this. Exactly the same. What arise are thoughts, feelings and sensations in the body. They are real thoughts and feelings. But an actual self? That’s not real. Self does not exist. You are not part of reality. The thoughts and images about you are—but a being that is living life? Thinking thoughts? No. There’s nothing there Gateless Gatecrashers
  2. @Sagatarius There's no harm on meditation. There will be paranormal experiences, not garantueed it will happen. Not so long ago there was a guy in this forum who reported that he was livetating while doing meditation. He said something like as he is typing right now he's whole body is literally on the air. There's a Zen saying that goes Dont chase power. Pursue spriritual awakening, then power will come next
  3. Oh no I was thinking that I am already enlightened. All along I might be wrong hmmm this made me think that there might be a slight posibility that I am not enligtened. I mean I'm pretty sure I'm enlightened tho
  4. @Azote That warrior too enlightened-ish
  5. I don't know much about chakras but I heard you're supposed to balance chakras. I think you are focusing too much energy to your 6th chakra, making a big gap with the rest. This is the reason why you might feel dizzy.
  6. Yea, he's pretty much bullshitting. No body can walk through walls, let alone levitate. Before saying such things he should have at least showed some proofs.
  7. You are chasing enlightenment through not chasing enlightenment

  12. More from The Road Less Traveled "Delaying gratification is a process of scheduling the pain and pleasure of life in such a way as to enhance the pleasure by meeting and experiencing the pain first and getting it over with. It is the only decent way to live " "When parents do things a certain way, it seems to the young child the way to do them, the way they should be done. If a child sees his parents day in and day out behaving with self-discipline, restraint, dignity and a capacity to order their own lives, then the child will come to feel in the deepest fibers of his being that this is the way to live " "Yet even more important than role modeling is love. For even in chaotic and disordered homes genuine love is occasionally present, and from such homes may come self- disciplined children. And not infrequently parents who are professional people-doctors, lawyers, club women and philanthropists-who lead lives of strict orderliness and deco-rum but yet lack love, send children into the world who are as undisciplined and destructive and disorganized as any child from an impoverished and chaotic home " Descipline comes from parental love Love = Descipline "When we love something it is of value to us, and when something is of value to us we spend time with it, time enjoying it and time taking care of it" Descipline = Suffering "In taking the time to observe and to think about their children's needs, loving parents will frequently agonize over the decisions to be made, and will, in a very real sense, suffer along with their children. The children are not blind to this. They perceive it when their parents are willing to suffer with them, and although they may not respond with immediate gratitude, they will learn also to suffer. "If' my parents are willing to suffer with me," they will tell themselves, "then suffering must not be so bad, and I should be willing to suffer with myself." This is the beginning of self-discipline "
