Mental masturbation

[David Turcot]

I like this expression.

First because I realize I did a lot of that in my life, and second, I realize I've got to stop doing this.

I'm new on this forum and I don't think Meditation, Consciousness, Enlightenment, Spirituality is a good topic for me right now, it will make me mental masturbate more.

I AM NOT SAYING THAT IS WHAT OTHER PEOPLE DO HERE, I'M JUST TALKING FOR MYSELF.

It's the mother of all topics don't get me wrong, although for me I guess I will benefit more from other topics at this point in my life.

Meditation and spirituality has to be something I do and I live, not something I talk about.

It's beneficial to know "the basics" of how ego works and what is enlightenment in a nutshell. Of course straying too far may cause you to misunderstand a lot and it's useful to not try to understand enlightenment and consciousness with your mind so much. Mind knows objects and labels the world - it doesn't understand something which cannot be measured, seen, touched etc. Staying silent and inquiring about the nature (using only questions) is beneficial.

Do whatever you feel like doing. Something must have brought you here. Sometimes it's good to know where you are. In the end "we" will all return to the source. This life is just a game. Stay true to yourself. Sending love!
