My friend this sucks you're battling your ego vs ego. You must step aside and watch the ego, not be the ego fighting the self. You believe you are your thoughts. This is why you are frustrated with yourself. Watch the thoughts write them down over time you will see the struggle is not the battle of the mind. The struggle is being consistent with the techniques needed to understand who the self is. Ego or observer? Write you've thoughts down you are overloaded, this will give you space to realize.

I think some people commenting here are either trolling for fun, too litteral to understand the concept in question or at one point was at the receiving end of said evil manipulation. It's Saturday everyone hope yall have a great weekend ? don't forget happiness matters, and not everyone can have a meeting of minds. I am reminded again all of our paradigms are so very different. I'm going kayaking today unnecessary details hahaha

The massive amount of alien evidence for me its undeniable. Disclosure project, a surgeon md that has removed unexplainable implants in patients. Whole countries like Mexico have admitted to some kind of phenomena they can't explain. Thousands of stories from U.S. Govt airforce men and other credible witnesses. Documentation about said events. This being found doesn't surprise me at all.

Therefore rationality and emotional resilience work the same way. Whatever you are doing at any given time you are modifying your brain to become better at it. So self awareness is something that just needs training in the brain. When the brain has become threatened, defensive, offended. This triggers the persons brain to switch gears almost and the brain actually starts using a more primitive side of the brain. This is why people (defensive, trolls, anyone emotionally imbalanced etc) appear to lose rationality and reason. Our brain has a choice on how to react. Jump into the primitive pit and duke it out. Or look at what this person is and watch our desire and reactions to see how our brain is naturally trained. Then make a decision on our actions with awareness. If you start to see these people for what they are it is common to pity the lack of awareness they have. I posted this so that people can have a scientific view on what happens when a troll pisses someone off haha having a physical understanding of things for me has helped take the emotions right out of my interactions on these situations

Yes I get the same impression from him. Not very enlightened, just more on the smart side of things. I have a book of his life after death. It's okay. Nothing life changing from what I have seen.

Neuroplasticity has found that the brain grows muscles it uses. Therefore if the brain is depressed all the time it will be good at being depressed. If it once day starts to practice being positive then this sets the brain in motion to become stronger at seeing the big picture instead of the limited negative often one sided view. Positive thinking works its just not easy if you aren't aware enough to keep it consistent. But if your referring to the law of attraction I have NO idea about that

@Nichols Harvey OMG your right enjoy

@Nichols Harvey LoL I wish you luck in your journey

I don't think so I tried so hard to get my boyfriend to understand what needed to change. I did everything possible. He wasn't listening. I was considering leaving him and as a result I did exactly what @Natalya said because I was considering leaving. Its natural to pull away from someone when you are having these thoughts. Only then did the reality of possibly loosing what we have really hit him. This goes for all people though. You never really know what you have until you feel it could be gone, or it just is gone. That is a way of asking with your body language, " are you sure you dont want to be with me" Because that is how it will be. I know this can be used as a seriously terrible manipulation tool. It was done to me. I watched my sister play with a guy for over 10 years doing this. Those people are evil. It is a reality check that isnt always a bad thing. It saved my relationship when I had no other options.

For me I was very distracted by having my eyes open in meditation. Now it is still a distraction but it has quieted down quite a bit. I believe because we are so vision oriented it causes unnecessary distraction. I also have something I have noticed in meditation. If I can keep my eyes still without movement then I get a sensation I felt while trying DMT. The feeling of going through a vortex or tunnel or something. When I was on DMT I freaked out about that feeling and forced my eyes open (it was very hard). I saw a large wormhole spinning in front of me sucking everything in around it, it was distorting space and matter. So I no longer try to open my eyes because I feel that I need to try to experiment with holding the eyes still to experiment with this feeling. I timed myself today and was able to get that vortex feeling in about 8 minutes. It seems to be all about the eyes holding still for me.

@Russell Thank you for all of that amazing information! I have always been very drawn to the sun, I felt as if it watched over me in a strange way. I believe this is why I am studying it as much as I can I hope I am not just wearing sun shaded glasses hahaha I am totally biased to the sun I realize I have a lot of the qualities of the sun. I am not born in the sun sign though. I am a Gemini. A very big curiosity I have is this. Where do I find information regarding this?

You are over thinking this. You barely know this guy so a quick strait up statement he should respect and accept. I normally would go get together have a drink or whatever and say " hey btw I think you may have gotten the wrong impression I'm not interested on dating anyone right now" if he is cool try to be friends if not dont it's gonna be to much drama.

I used to use meditation in this way too it took me so long to figure out how I was becoming stagnant. That is how our spirits are, they do not like to become stagnant if something appears repetitive something must change. Our spirit needs to have times of growth and times of contemplation. The growth I relate to a spiritual spring and summer time. The times of contemplation I relate them to a spiritual fall or winter. This is how I remember to embrace the changes that the spirit needs. As humans we want to classify everything black or white. There is no truth, there is no right, the only thing that is true is that change will always come. We are change. It is best to embrace the change the best we can. Using meditation as a barrier between the self and others can lead to social anxiety and isolation. Meditation is a tool to use, it is not who we are.

We are far more advanced in space exploration than what we have been told. Many UFO sightings are most likely man made advanced machines.

I had another dream this morning from the sun. I was in a crowded room with a childhood friend and a crowd was trying to get by me. A girl in the crowd who wanted to get past me viewed me as an obstacle and jammed me with her elbow. I jammed her in the neck lol and the rest of the time she was trying to lash out at me and I told her "I do not love you, I do not hate you. To me you don't exist" My childhood friend was laughing. This happened in about 30 minutes of sleeping because I woke up before that. @Michael569 Do you think that the sun could have more of an effect than what you said. Like can the sun alter our consciousness? Can the sun through its cycles be a contributor to evolution of our species? Can the sun be the cause for our various ages of awakenings IE the dark age and golden age? Does the electromagnetic connection between the sun and our planet play a significant role in how collectives behave when difficult times come? What about cosmic rays, as the magnetosphere weakens we will be getting more and more cosmic rays as our planet goes into geomagnetic storm conditions. Cosmic rays have been proven to cause DNA to mutate

@John I believe you suffer from 2 things. 1. You assume everyone is the same with the same struggle. This girl is blessed with a naive quiet mind, if she is what you say she is. You will never be like her. You will have to have internal conversations and raise your self awareness to understand problems that would otherwise drive you insane. You must accept your position or your frustrations will block your progress. You have been given a more difficult path than her. My boyfriend is like this, I had to accept our differences and most of all my obligation to fix my problem. 2. You view yourself in a unique way. You allow your mind to imagine the negative thoughts people may or may not have about you. Yes people send negativity towards you, unconscious minds are primitive and do stupid stuff. They don't know why. Do this for a week or a short time for an experiment. Do not allow your mind to think about what others are thinking. Play a game where if your mind says something someone else is thiking write it down. Feel as though you have busted your mind and told on it to yourself and now you have evidence of the sabotage the mind has been planning. This will back your ego up. It will realize you are aware of what it is doing. It will fear being found out. Over time the ego will become quiet with these assumptions it makes about others and what they may think of you. And if the conscious one that is you chooses to not care either you will soon attain the status of not giving a fuck what others think.

@Max_V your spiritual teacher is very right. Enlightenment is very unattainable for most. Think of the path of the Buddha. He had to leave all attachment behind in order to even try to attain, with no guarantee at all. This is because people we know create noise and thoughts in our minds. This distraction makes it impossible. I don't chase enlightenment really. I play with it, explore it while enjoying the things in life I would have to renounce if I was serious. This all or nothing thinking is very limiting. Decide the benefits you want from your spiritual journey and make it happen. Don't forget to enjoy the journey my friend.

Yes Leo is manipulating us. Not all manipulation is bad. Not everything is black and white, with awareness you can see the big picture here. With a systems mind you can realize how amazing this website is for so many people and society. A lot of it is free to..... Just because Leo benefits from our coming here doesn't mean he is a bad person. I benefit from coming here, we all do..... I am still in awe at the scope of what he has created honestly. He deserves to survive, even profit significantly off of his work. We all do. Especially if that work helps the world evolve through the chaos that we have today. I hope his website gets huge! I hope he makes millions or even billions. I hope it gets bigger than Facebook. If it did think of how far one idea he had could reach. Leo gets what he deserves. Reward for hard work that helps the world more than any of us have individually. He has brought us all together here to have a very important conversation. Thanks Leo

@DoubleYou kundalini yoga is very powerful, especially if you have never done kundalini work before. Kundalini is the energy connecting our soul our body and the spirit world. It is sacred. So kundalini yoga is designed to move this energy into proper alignment with various moves and positions. Regular yoga is just movements and positions for aligning the physical body. I caution anyone starting kundalini work as when this energy releases. It can cause a ripple effect of depression as your energy within settles. This can be significant and confusing. Especially if to much is released at the same time.

My boyfriend spends a lot of time at school too. One thing that really helps him is working at a job where he just sits there and has time to study while at work. It is very difficult going through college especially when you find yourself taking classes that are not relevant to what you will be doing. I dont know your full situation, but I do know that if you choose a good field and stick it through things can turn out pretty good. This is a big judgement call, trying to be someone leading the future for revolutionizing the world takes education because society is full of a bunch of critics and they scream about qualifications every chance they get. If you want to get into that field you may have to stick it through. That will take some research. If you are looking for inspiration, try networking around find people doing what you want to do. Maybe that will give you a goal to aim for to help keep your mind focused. If you are working an exhausting job though try to find a job where you can just sit around. Security job, a night job doing desk clerk. Working and going to school is tough. In the end the decision is yours. Maybe change fields? The computer tech field is always growing. Easy to get into and you could always do that initially and slowly move into a field you will enjoy more as time goes on. Like starting a business with something you are passionate about. The field is wide open. Just make sure to weigh the options logically because making decisions based on depression or anxiety can cause regrets.

You know? I believe this incremental stretching outside of our comfort zone makes me look back to my progression with self awareness. I would slowly stretch my emotional comfort zone and over time the same thing happened. A bigger comfort zone resulted over time Depression anxiety all of that doesnt cause discomfort anymore. Interesting!

Ya know when I think about this question I find myself feeling frustrated a bit. I think its because the mind has to leave reality to a fantasy and I know that allowing my mind to do this will lead me to frustration toward reality, society, and myself. I am sure everyone here wants what I want peace, a well oiled machine without anyone getting caught in the gears. To be honest we are many generations from this, and I don't want to think about anything but now I guess. Sorry I couldn't give you a more satisfying answer I have been sitting here working thinking about this for like 2 hours now hahaha this is the best I got lol

I would try to fit some nature in if it was me. I do a lot of nature oriented things and I would go nuts not getting out once a week at least. Here are some things I do regularly to get my nature dose. Walking dogs, kayaking, hanging out at the lake with friends, fishing, snorkeling, going to springs in FL, camping. I am very drawn to water, basically anything that gets me close to water lol I will even go out and sit on a bench when its raining I just LOVE water so much!!!

From my experience they are all the same like you say. I believe they are words, tools to be used to pry open the consciousness to allow change in. One word may trigger a reaction where another doesn't due to different life paths, paradigms and experiences. I believe generally they are all the same though?

Cognitive dissonance is where you have two conflicting thoughts at the same time and it makes your brain glitch out. I believe you are describing something different. When you have a belief you want to implement and you make a mistake it is your ego rationalizing the decision to give you good reason to do what is pleasurable to the ego once again in the future. This will never stop until you align your beliefs with your actions. Ego will always try to rationalize and blame you for making decisions. This brings about depression which the ego uses to control you through confusion, fear, and anxiety. Its basically an internal butterfly effect that ends in the ego getting more power over your behavior.
