Hello guys.

What do you think of this video?

Brilliant - if you want to pursue a life with a purpose. Useless - if you want to pursue enlightenment. Lol.

I feel like you need some determination for Enlightenment. Perhaps not to "try" and be enlightened (which is what I assume you mean) but to go for it regardless if you want it or not. Otherwise you're just sitting on your ass.

I use the word determination because "wanting" enlightenment can be seen as egoistical but determined to become enlightened is slightly different. Being determined is just being on the path, regardless of the circumstances

This video is nice just to get onto the path

Enlightened people appear to think that there is nothing that needs to be done.

Well, if they happen to think... lol.

I think it's more about keeping the mind still than to stop thinking. You can't really stop thinking, this is what It seems to me like that anyway, Keeping the mind still is stopping the movement, wouldn't you say?
