How can I enjoy life again? Everything feels pointless

53 posts in this topic

@deso Nihilism is a part of the path, I feel this all the time, nothing really deep down has any meaning, but this is has to be paired with Bliss, if You have not taken care of that part, Your Blissful of Your own nature, and are in the Nihilism of the nature of Reality, then Your in a bit of trouble.

You may be intellectually Realized but miserable inside, so this is not the ultimate Realization, the Ultimate Realization is this combined with Bliss, then Your in Truth of Reality Fully!

Why do you choose to create an emotion that you label as “feeling pointless” ?

Because he/she is Unconsciously doing so, Karma at play!

Why do you choose to be unconscious and then choose to create an emotion that you label as “feeling pointless” ? 

This is an excuse to not take responsibility, you are never a victim to unconsciousness.

Ultimately Yes.. One first has to have a basic Awareness, that there is life beyond surviving and accumulating ppl, places, things and experiences, so in basic language once the Pain of Ignorance hits You, then You either give up and die or strive to go beyond it...

Going beyond it is what the Spiritual Path is, its raising of Human Consciousness..

We are naturally born with strong survival instincts, if we were born highly Conscious/Enlightened, then we would not have survived as a species, we'd be too busy looking at an ant and realizing the Brilliance of an Ant Colony, while the Tiger jumps us and eats us alive.. And then there is Karma, if You lived hundreds of lives as normal Human without any sort of Conscious Awareness, then that has to be dealt with, it very hard to overcome that sort of Software running in Your system, its easier today since we have access to so much information, we see something cool we can investigate it like never before and this alone can help us become more Conscious, but there has to be a striving, we are a lazy society today and no one wants to Strive unless it has to do with money, fame or power/control...few go on this path, it was probably in their Karma to do so...

My question does not require a long answer. If one speaks honestly and takes the wheel of their life a clear answer will come in words why one chooses to go unconscious and why one choose to be nihilistic, and from there you can choose otherwise, if you so wish. Enough with the excuses masquerading as nuance. Nothing is imposed on one including "unconsciousness." Why do you choose to be unconscious?

Awareness, its that simple, no Awareness then no idea of Karma, that life is my making, hence life is on autopilot, lived by accident..

Why do you choose to live your life with no awareness? Why do you choose to live life on auto pilot? You are not a victim.

Why do you believe the long answer you previously gave me is the reason why you choose to live your life with no awareness?

Why do You ask stupid questions?

Why do You play the run around game?

I’m 23, I’d like to build my dream life, but nothing comes to mind. Nothing resonates, nothing gives me even the slightest enjoyment anymore.

Go do something really good for someone else. Even a stranger. You may find something in a giving action.
