  1. Hello. Why does is seem to me that I dont really want to 'end' (my) suffering. Like, for some reason, being 'nothingness' doesnt appeal to me that much..? Thats not to say that I dont search, I'm always searching. And on first glance I wouldnt say about myself that I enjoy my suffering.. The problem is that I dont really know what I want, deep down inside. I always search for different things. Could it be that I enjoy my suffering? Because if I really would want to end my suffering I would be searching for enlightenment (right)? thank you
  2. In reference to Bronsoval's post about kung fu. Was Bruce Lee enlightened?
  3. I thought the exact same thing today lol.. everything happens for a reason even if we dont realise it at that moment.. life is something..
  4. Do you ever lose your motivation for self mastery? If you dont, how do you manage to stay motivated for a long period? If you say something like "I realise how short life is and how precious it is " then I wanna know how you got to that (permanent) state of mind. Basically I want to know, what is your 'secret' behind your motivation.
  5. Thank you Leo for putting out epic content for free
  6. Define enlightenment. What is it intelluctually, physically, spiritually, existentially.
  7. I like his longer videos the most.. I loved the two videos: "Understanding awareness" and the video about free will, they were both long. I want more of those that really go deep.
  8. Any ideas how we can self remember easier? Having in mind those moments during the day that leave a memory, how can we use that as some strategy to induce more self remembering moments that leave a memory? Today I remember pretty much only the moment when 2 friends visited me, you open the door and the surprise of the 2 friends standing infront of your door makes you remember yourself momentarily, thus leaving a memory. Edit: I can remember way more moments if I really try.
  9. I will try it today and will post my experiences later.
  10. So how long did you practice self awareness for it to become somewhat an automatic thing?
  11. Sadhguru claims to know the human system from A to Z. Dont know if its true though. He says some logical stuff but he hasnt convinced of his claim.
  12. Lotus with palms on knees facing upward.
  13. Shinzen young said that your limbs falling asleep is not dangerous, as long as its not TOO long ( I would say days xD). He also said that most people can sit for 4 hours without problems. If your pain disappears after about twenty minutes after getting up there is not problem. If the pain persists for a long time, you should re evaluate your sits.
  14. Can you give practical examples of how you 'battle' with the ego?
