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!

Lol

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...

Lmao!

Totally agree with that. Pills works if we believe they can help. As meditation works if we believe meditation can help. I told one of the doctors how I feel much better after meditation, and I suggested that they should teach patients to meditate. And she was like "Yes, but meditation doesn't work for everybody"...

@Principium Nexus In fact I am nothing, I am not that billions of cells walking randomly around there Lol...

Totally agree with that. I was in the hospital due to depression. Anyway the experience taught me a lot, now I realize that there are better methods to get out of that. Because is like you say, when is the ego who is trying to do it, it comes back. They say that if you have depression once, and after taking their pills you get better, the chance of have another time the same depression is 50% , then if you have depression a second time you have 90% of having depression again, so now they will prescribe you pills during the rest of your life. WTF!!! Isn't that a belief too???? I didn't have any problem anymore with depression after begin to meditate consistently.

@Barna I am not having anything special during meditations, but I am having tons of little insights about my behavior and about the nature of reality. It's amazing how fast "my" belief system changes so fast. I am a different person everyday Lol...

@Barna I was doing the exercise you posted and you are right. Feelings or sensations happens in the place where we touch or feel an object. Awareness is all around us. Now I understand what it means when they say it's all pervading.

I noticed that when I am dreaming I don't see throught "my eyes", I see myself from the "outside" as if I was filming the dream and I was one of the actors... I also had a dream where I lost my identity, and I wake up scared as fuck... at that moment I wasn't even questioning my identity.

hehehe... true... but you know if someone does that now I will laugh too Lol Meditation has changed me so much, thanks to you Leo

@John Flores I wasn't saying that I tried to "convince" religious people. I only talk about that with people that I see that they can be open to the truth. I used to be a "bible thumper" before.

Nothing is happening in reality so... it's all good!

I am doing something lately, I trying to focus in the pain when I have a pain and feel what is that pain? Is it a sensation? What is it... and it goes away. I am not saying that a can control a big pain, but maybe some of those enlightened yogis can. Who knows?

That's the problem I have, I want to "shock" people and they sure are thinking I am crazy. Lol. And the most funny thing is that I am really talking to my self.

I use google keep to create lists with things I am interested and goals, etc... If you have an gmail account you have access to Google Keep. And you can use also google docs that works together with google Keep.

"Villagers in a far-off land wanted to capture monkeys. So one ingenious person thought of cutting a hole in a coconut and stuffing peanuts in it. Then he placed the coconut in a tree frequently visited by monkeys. Letting Go Story Lesson Within minutes of putting the coconut in the tree, a monkey wandered by, smelled the peanuts, crawled up the tree and put his hand inside the coconut. As villagers approached to nab the monkey, the monkey couldn’t climb down the tree because he was clutching the peanuts inside the coconut and his hand was stuck. If he had let go of the peanuts, he would have made a quick getaway. The monkey got caught. Aren’t we all like that monkey? We’re stubborn and hold on to beliefs that cause arguments with others. We like to be right. We like to think others think we’re right. Clutching peanuts and not letting go causes us a lot of troubles in our lives. Instead of behaving like the monkey, we could occasionally open our minds to conflicting beliefs, listen to others who say things that upset us and stand up for causes that might help reduce anxiety and suffering in the world."

hahaha...

I thought about that too... maybe is because I never used it and never buy it, so I am afraid of being caught Lol

I don't like too much the idea of trying any drug. Is there any hope for me?

They think they decide it... but thinking is not the same as actually doing it. There's no "doers".

Truth is hard for the ego to accept.
