  1. They are really experts in brainwashing techniques. The cult leader is scary!
  2. Talking about the devil, today I bought something from the supermarket and it cost me $ 6.66
  3. From the Chandogya Upanishad: " The Ultimate exists within oneself – Third Prapāṭhaka The first six verses of the thirteenth volume of Chandogya's third chapter state a theory of Svarga (heaven) as human body, whose doorkeepers are eyes, ears, speech organs, mind and breath. To reach Svarga, asserts the text, understand these doorkeepers. The Chandogya Upanishad then states that the ultimate heaven and highest world exists within oneself "
  4. That's what I was asking, thanks! I know it can't be understood from our perspective.
  5. That's what I don't get, isn't that ultimately consciousness our true self? It is witnessing itself, the only thing is that maya (the illusion) is making it believe that is a separated entity. Or am I wrong?
  6. I think is both, Bullshit and no Bullshit! Very interesting @eskwire I didn't know about that. That's pretty buddhist I think, hehehe.
  7. Zen Wisdom: "If you think nobody cares if you're alive, try missing a couple of car payments."
  8. Well, you are "thinking" that I am not going to engage because I say world is an illusion, that's your belief. Knowing that the world is an illusion gives you a much more strong place to confront it. Try it one day and you will know how it works. You won't be overwhelmed by the situation, and you will act getting the best possible results, if you continue "thinking" in being attached to worldly problems, you won't act to get the best results, you will act from your unconscious ego and probably you will feel overwhelmed by the "problem". If you think we are egoic beings on the planet earth, that's what we will be. But you know we are not that. I am not trying to say that I am right, I just act from a different perspective, that in my experience is much better than believing the world is the "ultimate reality".
  9. Balance? Balance is just a thought, you are scared of the truth. There's no "balance" when you talk about realizing yourself. "The seer and the object seen are like the rope and the snake. Just as the knowledge of the rope which is the substrate will not arise unless the false knowledge of the illusory serpent goes, so the realization of the Self which is the substrate will not be gained unless the belief that the world is real is removed." Ramana Maharshi
  10. Don't worry! It's just Maya making fun of us!
  11. I think Donald Trump is pure awareness, The absolute itself.
  12. @cetus56 I like that guy, he is really clear on his teachings, and he shares a lot of information on his youtube channel. Very juicy information, take a look at his channel. He's really good. IMO.
  13. @Emerald Wilkins We are all doomed!!! And I am from South America, maybe I have to go back to my country Lol...
  14. Totally agree, and Alec Baldwin impersonation is funny as hell. Lol We wouldn't had so much fun is Trump wasn't president. He's not as smart as Hitler. Stay here!
  15. If you are interested in true Christianity, I will suggest you to watch the teachings of Father Rohr. He really explains very well the true teachings of Jesus, like most of the mystics Christians, the dessert fathers, etc...
