There is nothing in life you have to take serious, the more serious you get – the more disconnected from the essence you will get. This life is so short, so fragile, so delicate and dreamlike. All the effort I put in can at the top create a better dream. I am never gonna make it. This is a dream, so what is the point? To be able to experience the polarities and everything in between of this dream, so amazing! You just can´t have one without the other, simply because all is one. To attain permanent liberation, I must develop the courage to live every moment of my life without any fear, no matter what – fearless. You will lose everything very soon so a smile is worth more than the hole world. You never had anything from the beginning To claim that you have a life is the same as if the characters in your dream at night would claim they have a life. There is nothing to be afraid of, or you could say, there is really nothing to do at all. I wanted to be special, HAHAHA. Everyone and everything is so beyond special. Knowing this live is a dream, makes me feel reverence, makes it so much more beautiful, so much more worth living. I´m so exited about everything now. You were creator of it all and you don´t remember creating because it was created before memory was imagined – Matt Kahn

Well a lot of teachers talk about this "dream of life", so I knew it as a concept but during this trip/meditation session I´v had the direct experience of it. I was able to witness this dream of life from an absolute perspective, as my true being (aka god, consciousness, emptiness, the underlying intelligens of all, etc) So what is far more real than all the objects in this world is your true being, everything in this world will come and go in a dreamlike kind of way. Your true being has always been here and will always be here. So believing that the person you see in the mirror is all there is to you, that is dreamlike. Finding who you are at the deepest level possible is waking up from that dream.

Yes, with that criteria a lot of places fell of my list though

Not a topic for the coffee break at my work

Guess my writing here is a try to integrate this.

Well, you could call it a trip - no difference The trip was the greatest shock of my life.

Only you can confirm that.

If we can not imagine it or access it - who would care?

This is so common in our society, yet very few people recognise it.

What they talk about is something that points to what words can not describe so it´s not an easy task.

Eckhart talks about that all the time..

The title "Warning! Teal Swan is NOT a real spiritual teacher" is a low consciousness mark.

So you know/have experienced reality?

I bet he enjoyed it too! Everyday he took a 1 h drive in one of them. Everytime with the company of a girl, if I have got it right. According to his secretary Ma Anand Sheila (can´t find the video right now) he was very, VERY specific about what car he wanted to drive the next day and the administration around it. The colour and model was very important.

He´s approach was to provoke people.

I pay for it with the money I earn from my job.

The fear of put my family on the street if I let go totaly.

That depends on what you mean with truth

Anything can be linked to any topic, of course, but if things gets to distant away from the thread-topic it will be difficult to navigate on this forum.

@movinglimits A bit off topic but here is Sadguru´s aproach to the question.
