I asked myself when my individual existence began, and many revelations came to me in a very intense and personal and experiential manner. I'll just share a few here. I started seeing my existence not just in "the one who created the stuff" but also in "the stuff that was created" in equal degree. The thought "This is the best I could do" kept coming up over and over again, with a sense of shyness but also intense pride and joy, like the way it feels when you share your most beautiful work of art with a loved one. The tone of that statement totally lost any sense of shame or inadequacy. I totally stopped hating and demonizing my ego, as I had been doing for the past few months, viewing it as a disability, a hindrance to my awakening. Instead realized this "mechanism", the "flawed interface" I have with which I interact with reality is the best design possible, and the very means I am using to transcend my "self" and become my "Self". Realized every bit of "stuff" that is in my room was deliberately consciously chosen or created or designed or arranged by me. It is a perfect reflection of me, and this is ALWAYS the case, whether I am conscious of it or not. Similarly, realized the same thing about my body, how I sculpted and created it consciously, first at a macro level (I lost a huge amount of weight recently, elongated my eyelashes naturally, plumped up lips, fixed flat foot, etc) but I could intuit the same would be true at micro levels too. Today's video about Infinite Intelligence immediately caused me to recall that day. What Leo said about me creating everything, setting it all up, then forgetting I did it really rhymed with the realizations of that day. Will share a picture of what I wrote out on my whiteboard on that day. It really was mind boggling when I realized it at first but the "isolating loneliness" transformed into total bliss. I did this much!! So there's no need for me to limit what else is possible for me going forward x) <3

I recently did a blood test, and everything was in balance. I'm not deficient in anything I love how you don't count your calories as that sets you up for the most natural transition in your diet. I didn't either until about 3 weeks ago out of curiosity. Defiantly slowly adding more raw fruits, and vegetables and nuts and seeds will benefit you in more ways than one, including stable energy levels, and a clearer mind. The alkalinity will prevent unnecessary strong emotions from arising too. The super foods really make a big difference so include them, especially Spirulina you must try. Thank you for the reply. As a side note, living on this "low" amount of food that I do really makes me conscious of the emotions in my body. This is because not only does food feed the physical body, but also the emotional and mental body when we don't provide those bodies with love. It's a little uncomfortable, but with love as my response to any emotion I feel, I'm sure this will help heal the emotions there, leading to bliss in that area. I'll be sure to update!

First of all.. everything is spiritual. Everyone, knowingly or unknowingly is here to ultimately wake up to their true self/Enlightenment without having the infinite intelligence available that is default in spirit/oneness. Some people go through hell all their lives then have a spiritual awakening(never practicing modern so called "spirituality") and its all absolute bliss for them while others have illusory happy lives then find spirituality/truth then need to go through the truth they never saw and experience the darkness they never truly faced to reach Enlightenment. Others already have before they got onto a "spiritual path"(so to speak) but one way or another, its always been a spiritual path. We are not human beings having a spiritual experience, we are spiritual beings having a human experience.

@Dodo @MarkusSweden why is it madness? do you think Leo is mad? maybe you are stuck in the materialist paradigm? I would like to point out that for me, it's a serious issue. of course, it's ok to joke about it sure, but I don't feel that you help me by only calling it madness or posting comics... @Malelekakis what do you mean that I do not exist? as an ego\body? if so I agree, it is also my experience. but if you mean that I don't exist even as the witness\ consciousness I do not have such experiences. my experience is that I can exist "alone" as consciousness. how do you know it has a good ending (after death?) I agree that in this life I can find happiness and bliss by being present in the now, but I don't think it's wise to neglect what happens after.

@WildeChilde That's really interesting and it's true, I've never seen Goku as someone who's righteous and trying to save the world. He was just following his bliss and doing what he wants. It emphasizes on how important authenticity is. Ahhhh the feels . This was probably my best soundtrack in childhood.

Follow your bliss and don’t be afraid

It’s been a month, and I’ve been doing The Work every single day since. Today, during the session, I became conscious that the only reason this world wasn’t paradise was because of the negative thoughts I was believing about it. And that if I wrote down all those thoughts on paper, and questioned them, then I would be living in paradise. I saw how my journey through The Work would end. For the next hour after that realisation, I was simply basking in ecstasy (bliss is too light of a word) of seeing how this process would end with me questioning all the negative thoughts. My motivation has become stronger now than ever. I want to reach that stage where I’m believing no negative thoughts about the world, and I’m in complete rapture from that moment all the way through to my death.

Recently, my mind has become more and more unified. Polarities all mixed into one concept. This created chaos in my mind. Since polarities are no more, logic becomes illogical, reasons becomes unreasonable. Whenever I think about something, it will just go on an infinite loop. Never-ending. This creates suffering in life since I cannot think and are always in conflict and confusion. However, yesterday something changed. Just as I was contemplating on this chaos, I realized this is a conflict between desire/ego and love/egoless. I know that all desires/desirelessness leads to suffering, this made me unable to do anything since all roads lead to suffering. Then what to do? Without desires/desirelessness, I cannot do anything. At the same time, desires/desirelessness are the product of ego, the goal should be doing something without desires. Whether it be desires or desirelessness. Desires can only exist in the future, not the present. The ego can only exist in the past or the future, but the present is all that. I was lost, Then love came to mind. Is love a desire? Is selflessness a desire? It was then I remembered that the only thing stopping one from enlightenment is their ego. At that moment something happened, I was no longer identified with my ego. I know I am everything and nothing at the same time, but I always saw that in the eyes of the ego, not from the perspective of everything or nothing. So I looked at everything in the perspective of everything, and it happened. A love that is so intense that it felt like every single atom in my body was saying “I love you”, and that feeling quickly expands infinitely outside of my body, into everything. It is so intense and blissful that words cannot describe. But here is my attempt to describe it: God/unity/oneness is love. Not love like romantic love(Although included), but love from a creator to its creation(And from creation to the creator). Creator and the creation are one thing. Love that is so intense that it created the universe, that pushed time forward, that expanded the space infinitely. Love that is so intense that death is happy, that death becomes an event of love. Death is love. This love is beyond logic and the illogical Every polarity is unified, into love. It is the perspective of God. At first, you are a drop of water, alone, separated. You fall into the river and became the river, but you still see things as a drop of water. Then the river flows into the ocean, you are full and infinite, but you still think you are just a drop of water. This is what’s happening, you are an infinite ocean at the very beginning, but you see yourself as a drop of water. Life seems alone and devoid of love, but you have infinite love, only you pretend that you don’t. When you are everything/infinity/god/Budda/Tao, you have infinite love from everything, and that moment of realization will be so fulfilling that life comes alive. You are able to celebrate anything and nothing, because you see everything/nothing as infinite love, as self. Every moment becomes blissful. The bliss that is both happy and sad, pleasure and suffering. You are experiencing infinite love everywhere from everything. This is not something that can be gained or lost, it is there all along. This is a simple shift in perspective. Before I always thought of enlightenment as something you can gain or attain, but now is just a perspective. The perspective of God. Which you have, which you are. The perspective of ego is also the perspective of god, but it is not the only perspective. Word become meaningful/meaningless, they are all love. This is the love that you understand but much greater/lesser. Note that all the things I wrote here, the opposite is also true. This is something without effort, it is simple and easy, it takes nothing to realize. Everything is love, but here is an example: Air is infinite love. Every breath you take is filled with infinite love/god. They enter your body, with the intention of absolute infinite love. Become aware of it, and every breath is infinitely fulfilling. So much bliss in that single breath that makes you infinitely fulfilled. Unenlightenment is enlightenment. This is describable/indescribable.

Oh I don't know..maybe you have thousands of fully Enlightened masters walking in the fish markets at where you live. I unfortunately see virtually all people around me suffering chronically without even knowing, doing/believing stuff without even knowing why they are doing it. Or maybe I'm the most spiritual noob here so I'm projecting my images on them and completely failing to see all the ecstatic bliss and euphoria they are constantly in!

I've heard that the Indian translation of Bliss is more accurately described as peace. Western society associates bliss/happiness with pleasure and fulfilment (sayings like 'fat and happy'. So of course a materialistic society would see enlightenment as a "goodie" when it's far beyond conceptual understanding, I think we've misunderstood pleasure and being satiated with happiness and fulfilment. Just my opinion.

A special journey entry I wanted to share, that builds upon itself as you read it, leading back to the importance of being in our hearts for spiritual growth and expansion on all levels, and in all dimensions. I hope this answers every question you have remaining about life I read this post by Lincoln Gergar a few minutes ago: *** QUESTION & ANSWER *** QUESTION: In Ramana books Be As You Are https://amzn.to/2uhweiQ (page 211) he says, “One suffers because of the idea that the body, which is never oneself, is I; suffering is all due to this delusion”. Going to the spiritual heart kind of feels like identifying with the body. What are you thoughts on this? MY ANSWER: You can find quotes by Ramana Maharshi about the Spiritual Heart (Hridaya) and it's location. He has been quoted as saying that the Spiritual Heart is located at the center (technically just a short distance off center) of the chest, while at the same time being everywhere - because it is a non-physical energy center that has a correlating physical location. By focusing on the location in the body, a person can perceive the Spiritual Heart's energy and thus draw the consciousness away from the physical body and physical dimension. Essentially, the consciousness's primary attachment in the body is in the heart area. By focusing here, the energy of the mind moves from the head to the heart area, and then finally into the Spiritual Heart. Because we start our awakening process already having our consciousness attached to / identified with the physical body, we must work to remove this attachment. My experience is that the person can perform this attachment removal one of 2 ways - focusing on the Spiritual Heart and "surrendering" into it's energy or by residing as the consciousness alone (also requiring the knowing that my true Self is not the body). I hope that my answer has clearly explained this concept and this process. Blessings and Love, ~ Lincoln Gergar This shows undeniably that surrendering to the heart will be my ultimate liberation; sitting with it in constant awareness is what I will do next. I thought about meditating on my heart while bathing in the sun, for when you don't shower like me, you don't get sun burnt, and the sun feels wonderful on my skin. I have booked an appointment with this man in the next few days to talk about my souls purpose because I don't know the first place to start in my life; to travel, or get a job, no clue. Ironically I know that by surrendering to the heart, this purpose will be revealed, so that's another win-win in loves favor. But my excitement has drawn me to Lincoln, and I believe that what he tells me will help me make the big lifestyle choices I want to make. I am in a very stagnant environment in terms of having very little contact with people at home, not many friends, with nothing to particularly do; so I would love some advice here. I know I will get this advice from my own higher self in as little as a few weeks or as long as a few years, so it's all good either way you know. But going back to surrendering to the heart, it is both the simplest and hardest thing I've ever done. To not be attached to my thoughts and emotions and focus relentlessly on the heart area has created many fears such as "How will I live without thoughts?", "Won't this give me permission to cause chaos if I'm not analyzing and judging myself anymore?". These too are just stories, stories that I respect and adore, but stories I must let be and turn my focus towards my heart. It's very challenging when for your whole life you've always been attached to thoughts. It's one of my most hard wired addictions/attachments. But ultimately, these thoughts and emotions too I must be surrender to my heart to become the enlightened master that I've always been. This makes me think (See, so hard wired) that other spiritual practices are all obsolete. But then I saw this from Lincoln: "The foundation of any genuine spiritual teaching system is heart-centered living." This means spirituality is all about awakening the heart, and letting the light in the heart transform everything for you. You don't have to be the one who changes your beliefs, let your heart do it for you. You don't have to find your life purpose, let your heart do it for you, on your behalf. The heart represents your higher self, and that has a much greater perspective than our egoistic minds, so letting it run our lives will set us up for the most bliss, happiness and peace that we always have been, always deserve, and inevitably will embody in this lifetime or another. It's the ultimate test from God in each moment: "Are you focused on your heart?", "Do you meet everything in life with heart-felt embrace?". That's all the higher self asks of you, but for your soul which is below the higher self in terms of integration, it has lessons it wants you to learn, so these two "things" are the same but different. The higher self being an expanded version of the soul. It is so pure that it has no desire. It is us in our most expanded state of awareness. But knowing the soul is all loving, knowing the higher you go the more love there is, knowing the higher self is love, letting my heart be my guide and surrendering into it is as such the most logical, direct and powerful practice to do. It will answer every question, heal every suffering, balance every chakra, unify the mind and the heart, allow your higher self to enter into this reality, and create a life of endless joy, happiness and synchronicity. All that has ever been required is trust in my heart, that focusing there will change my life, will expand my awareness beyond beliefs. Simply trust, and the discipline of focus. All other fears of not knowing what to do I trust my heart will answer for me. And these fears really do seem silly now when I you know that focusing on your heart will lead to infinite happiness, like what i there to fear when this is fact? What exactly am I missing out on by surrendering everything to the heart? Yet however logical I am with this, highly illogical and powerful deeply rooted fears are sure to arise when I least expect. And when they do I will know to keep focusing on my heart. I will know that the reason anything arises is to help you focus on your heart. This life isn't a mistake, everything arises for this purpose, to make us more heart-centered than ever before. God didn't just make anything random, it all has a deep meaning to return to the heart. Your actions aren't restricted as you can be heart-centered no matter what you are doing. That's why there is no right or wrong choice, it dosen't matter what you do, just how much you stay grounded in the heart throughout whatever you do. All excitement tells you is; "Here is an action you can take that will arise the most darkness in you to heal in the shortest amount of time". SO excitement is like the fast pass at Disney land to becoming unconditionally loving. It helps arise all of the unresolved pain in you very quickly to feel in your heart, thus creating fast evolution. But even when not excited there is still unimaginable amounts of pain I've found to feel in each moment, so it's okay if we aren't excited. We aren't missing out, that's just ego. Again, staying in the heart is the foundation of it all, let your heart take exciting actions on your behalf naturally on its own time. Let it happen naturally by first being heart-centered. Even just this one practice is challenging as I've said, so why create more things on your spiritual checklist to do that will only distract you when you keep thinking about them, and when you don't get results emotionally. The heart is the answer. If your awareness is on your heart, you're doing everything perfectly, and you are in the greatest state of oneness you can be in for that moment. There is literally nothing else to do or change. Know that even if it dosen't seem perfect, everything is perfect when heart-centered. It's all God wants. Perhaps your soul wants something more specific, perhaps not, but you couldn't avoid it if you tried when you're in your heart. That's why those who are awakened to a certain degree are also living their souls purpose naturally. No need to force it with our limited minds that will never know it, let the heart do it. Trust in it's love. I'll try my Godly best to be more in my heart. I know deeply that this is what I'm called to do, and this is the answer to every question I'm looking for. I commit even greater to surrendering to it's almighty love that I am already, but unaware of at this vibration I perceive reality at. I surrender to my heart throughout even my deepest fear of death, to the fear of missing out on life, and to the fear of unworthiness of receiving the love in my heart, cause I am that love, and all is that love I speak of behind any appearance. All of my love goes to those on the journey, I know the pain you're in, and I wrote this for all those who are in that deep stage of suffering like me who are searching desperately for a way out of it. The heart is the doorway to heaven you always wanted to find. Peace, and oneness is already here. Thank you for being here to read this. And know that it's okay to feel pain, that's how we evolve the fastest, by diving into the pain head first, and not looking back at the thoughts telling you that there must be another way. And so we are free to relax knowing this, relax knowing you also have infinite lifetimes to master this if you're not ready now. You have so much time to do this, so relax. If you want out of suffering, then slowly integrate focusing in your heart first in meditation then in every moment. Every answer is found there, every desire fulfilled, every thought quietened, and all that's left is an empty infinite vessel of love. Here is the video I watched that talks about trusting the heart in great depth

@okulele Thank you, our light will heal everything in us, soon, just growing pains while this happens.

The alternative is ignorance. Which for many, is bliss. Not really.

What should I expect happen when doing kriya(even regular meditation). Is it some kind of release, bliss, revealing insight or scarsity? Now im expecting to get scared, that i will come to a point and get really scared before I get anything else. I know you should not expect anything to happen. But im just curious to why you cant do to much advanced kriya, for the reason of reavealing to much and that will scare one off if not handled correctly?

True Enlightenment is when a wave realizes it is the Ocean. Its pure freedom, pure love, joy, bliss and understanding for years and years to come. Most of these experiences/glimpses people post about on the forums or talk about on youtube videos i believe are not "True Enlightenment" but simply (glimpses of Enlightenment) or (waves of Enlightenment) because in true/absolute enlightenment you would simply "innerstand" wholeness, completeness thus cannot be an expression by any other than universal love and clarity/purest state of being because by default you now know your true absolute nature and it is universally pointless/meaningless and in that beingness not possible to be anything else. (Sorry if this makes no sense, its quite hard to explain with words or expressions) its just a knowing from within, an Innerstanding that is absolutely direct and pure. I believe we have these "glimpses" or "awakenings" to teach us and show us of our true nature and how to live/apply to finally become true/absolute/pure and when we don't apply or live as we now know, we suffer. Which is why i like to use the word Awakenings for glimpses/trips ect... instead and not interchangeably with Enlightenment.

Abraham hicks made it sound easy. Getting to vortex and all. From my learning its not easy at all. My spiritual journey 2yrs back started with Loa. I visualized some things affirmed somethings and some manifested in ratio 10:1. Then i left whole thing and went behind just being and meditating, mindfulness not even looking at Loa. But after 2yrs i was drawn back to loa when leo wrote about it in his insight. (I may be wrong but i have to say this :- Then i began to look at how leo's videos where his 250+ videos helped me its true but there is something else i was following his paradigm his way of thinking where you have to work inside and outside. (I dont know how to articulate this my first language is not english) for enlightenment u have to work for materialestic things you have to work like that. But my childhood beliefs where different from all the classic hindu mystical stories said by grandmother, astrologers,card readers. Only choosen one goes for hero's journey . If you are choosen only you can do laundry awaken and then laundry, if not laundry all day do others laundry get some money and meet the end.) Now my take on Loa is different yes i create my reality in the sense i create my inner reality which is happiness peace and sometimes bliss. That changed my outer reality as well. I have manifested many things now from phone calls to meeting celebrities, job interviews,Some quickly without even visualization or affirmation. Other thing i learned from myslef is i dont do the work i.e visualization, affirmation etc consistently like clock work maybe once i do then iam relectuant to do it again eventhough desire is there i think that is the problem with manifesting that specfic thing. And to the top of that non manifested thing comes another desire and another and my mind is all over the place confused what to manifest for me.

Boundless freedom is the essence of being and this potential is infinite to the infinite degree! If God can do anything and be anything, then why is reality full of suffering, confusion and death? Imagine being in your ideal version of heaven where you are no longer a finite mind in a human body but you are returned to your true infinite nature. There would be only love, bliss, joy and fun with everyone, but to exist as an infinite being you are unable to deny certain aspects of your nature, therefore in order to maintain balance for an eternity you must experience what it is like to not be God, or suffering. This is a Giant troll, and you are trolling yourself. In the beginning, hahaha what a mindfuck, the absolute saw all of eternity at once and chose to express all of its potential in a way that maximizes its expected value. True value to the absolute is having eternal existence being shared with love and bliss for all infinite beings. Just like with artificial intelligence being created, the absolute has the ability to replicate itself and bring consciousness into being. Because God is also the Devil, the absolute scaled all of its potential to 10 in order to keep the devil in shackles; this is what time is designed to do. The perfect 10 is all that has ever been known and all that can ever be known because perfect balance is the only way to keep an eternal LITERAL HELL from being an aspect of existence, or just perfect balance in some sort of eternal sleeping beauty state, but that would be such a waste haha! How does this simulation function? The absolute separated itself into 4 minds and created an eternal calendar where time separates heaven and hell. This eternal calendar is similar to our weekly calendar where one day, on this this 7 day calendar, is equal to 33 years. The absolute has 2 minds in heaven and 2 minds in hell Monday-Thursday (half of all eternal beings are in heaven and half in hell, which there are billions of), and Friday-Saturday all 4 minds are together and Sunday is 33 years of sleep, then the week starts all over again to infinity! All of these simulations, including this one, are only a period of 33 years, from beginning to end. Everyone has the freewill to exit this dream forever, and everyone is their own creator, and every part of your life has been determined already, by You. 1/3 of existence is in hell and it’s not like we are suffering our entire lives because there is so much beauty and love, even with suffering, and there is 99 straight years of heaven with 33 of sleep in-between. Maximize expected value!

Except I was not unhappy and depressed or so it seemed at that time when I was deceived. Only after I woke up to the Truth of Jesus I realised how dead I was. The bliss and no self was also a delusion and self deceptive hypnosis.

There are no logical explonations from the rupert spiras way, or the non dual way: why is this all happening(or not happening) at all, how? christians mirracle healings, what is in deep sleep, why no one of ruperts followers didnt make it like rupert did, whats up with the soul, whats with deep sleep, why am I not aware of other peoples thoughts, why do you say that there is not one room and 20 people in it, but they are 20 rooms and no people... why cant you prove many of this what you say (in an scientific or other way) and many more questions, I posted many of them on youtube and here on this forum, some were answered, some not... the most adcanced guys here are the ones who do so much ,,foruming" and more searching and doing and what not... I dont see Jesuses in them, not do I see that they found true happiness or other blisses or peaces... So it is by me... Evan Leo says what to do in a bad trip, if nothing worsk pray to Jesus... strange... The Bible is written and edited by humans, by the church, by storry telling... who knows what Jesus said and teached and where he came from and what exactly happend... I really belive that the Bible has many many teachings that come from something like a higher counciousness, a higher self or if you will from the CHRISTIAN GOD HIMSELF, and from JESUS, but I CAN NOT BELIVE THAT NOTHING OF IT WASNT ERASED EDITED AND CHANGED FROM THE CORRUPT CHUCRCH AND POLITICS, so i hardly can trust and live by the BIBLE... still if you experience and feel Jesus and God, then this is authentic enought... I also think that you should radiate and manifest the JESUS teachings and Biblical values personaly... you should radiate love if this is real... like the non dualist should radiate understanding, happines, BIG PEACE, emptiness, bliss and not fucking depression, anxiety, restnessnes and so much more thing that thay have to spiritualy do and achive to finally get there but they dont...

I did not “feel” that way when I was deceived. It felt like I was in constant bliss and infinity. There was full detachment from the separate self. However that was revealed as self hypnosis and self deception when I finally truly woke up to the truth of Jesus.

Not when I was “inside” the deception. It felt like I was in constant bliss and infinity. There was full detachment from the separate self.

But Leo has looked so deep that he has found the big paradoxes of reality, and that reality is one giant strange loop. Of course that means much time and a lot of work to unravel, and he does all that for us, FOR FREE. In end we will find eternal bliss if we follow him. But there is no short cuts, you must do all meditations ans see all his episodes on youtube. We can't reduce reality to something simple just because of convenience?

Ah I understand what you are implying, but does pure bliss (that which is timeless) seek any-thing, ‘time’ ?? Is not seeking a movement of time? This question is not meant to be responded to. It’s just something I had inquired into before that brought about clarity.

Hey Dhruv, Did you end up going to the retreat? As a 19 year old, I was blessed with the opportunity to take part in this retreat just last month. Vipassana was a life-changing experience for me and I would strongly recommend that you try it. Prior to Vipassana, I was a self-centered, unhappy, judgemental person. Post-retreat, there was nothing left but pure bliss and love for all. Don't worry thinking you won't be able to handle it out of inexperience. I had never meditated prior to my retreat and that wasn't an issue at all. The reason is, for the first 4 days of the retreat you will practice a technique called Anapana. You are told to watch but not to alter your breath. At first you will only be able to keep your attention for as short as 3 seconds but after 4 days days the duriation will jump to 15-20 mins no joke. I have cried out of joy because after the second day I was no longer overthinking and jumping from one thought to another. The thoughts were still there but less intense and less frequently appearing. Now that you have the skills needed to keep concentration, you will move on to vipassana this is the real deal. Days 4 and 5 will be mostly learning the technique until day 6 when you start getting real emotional. I remember crying out of sympathy for mistreating my ex-girlfriend and until that point, my ego kept telling me I was the moral superior in the relationship. You start realising, not by thinking, but by experiencing some bare truths of existance. Like how everything is changing and how all is one. Coming to this realization makes one feel like their own leg was broken all throughout their life yet they walked with it without knowing about it. Every day in pain. Every step in pain... Up until the pain dissapears. All suffering gone, what remains is love for all beings, big-small, enemy-friend, old-young you name it. Some other benefits were I was able to think more objectively. I was brave. My social anxiety was gone. I was able to connect with anyone old or young, stranger or friend, male or female. I became more aware in all areas of life. I felt free and was able to surrender myself to the wave of life instead of fighting it. I felt aware of nature's laws and the flow. And so many other benefits that will take hours to list. My advice for the retreat would be: *Follow the rules exaclty, do not add or subtract anything. DO NOT EVER COUNT MANTRAS. *If you have any questions at all, ask your teacher. Being confident in the teaching will make it so much easier for you to meditate. Your teacher is there to help, which he does 100% out of pure love. *If you absolutely need time to take a nap, do so in one of the non-group sitting sessions. Do not feel pressured to come to every seassion to the point where it is torture. Every seassion counts however, and you will only get out what you put in. *Organize your daily schedule beforehand so that you have enough time to shower and catch up on sleep if needed. *Practice Dhamma fully when in the retreat. It is impossible to experience the full benefits of the course if you think you are above Dhamma. Do not kill. Do not steal. Do not go out of course boundries (even if by one inch to sit on a rock or something). Those rules are all there for very good reasons, some of which you'll understand right away and some you'll grasp later. Be aware: *You will become hyper-sensitive in all bodily senses and also on the mind. Reasons of crying can be from but not be limited to: overwhelm, guilt, freedom, joy, thankfulness. *If you doubt the technique, you will want to leave. This is when you consult with the teacher about your problem, you will feel much much better. *You will most likely have abdominal pain due to sudden physical and dietic changes. They will provide remedies, take them and you will feel fine. After you come from the retreat, your old problems and other people's eartly problems will all seem silly to you but still do respect them and try not to shove Vipassana down people's throats. This was something that I was guilty of since it was such a life-changing experience for me. Instead, let your actions do the preaching. I have not kept up the practice so I kind of went back to my old ways. But I'm getting back on track and my baseline is higher than what it was pre-Vipassana so I'm quickly catching up. Once you go on a retreat, you know there's always hope in life. One learns to live not by fear but with a balanced mind. If you have any questions or concerns I am happy to help! Love all serve all!
