Self Inquiry: Why the heck isn't it working for me?!

[cena655]

I had two enlightenment experiences till now. At the beginning my self inquiry progress was great. I knew I was doing it right. 

But now after 4 months my practice isn't as fruitful as before. It isn't as intense as it used to be. I also lack of motivation to keep doing. I feel distracted by thoughts a lot during the practice and I don't really "feel" it anymore.

I don't know what's happening...what is causing this?? Maybe someone can relate to this...

The ego mind is very sneaky. It will use self-inquiry and co-opt it to build up a spiritual ego instead of actually dissolving the ego.

I recommend supplementing self-inquiry with Kriya yoga and psychedelics.

@Leo Gura Is psychedelics legal in Las Vegas? (where you live) or you ;are just taking it illegally? Psychedelics is a great tool for pursuing enlightenment. THere's no question about that but if you encourage people to do it regardless of the legality of it, it is dangerous
