Oh, Ok... got you. I always remember the finding of the scrolls because I saw some documentary long time ago, but I didn't know the Gospel of Thomas was one of them until recently.

A big lesson to learn that democracy is very fragile.

I found this one inspiring too:

@mandyjw Really?

@Intraplanetary

I think the advice is not to be attached to ideas or concepts... just THIS!

Good rule. I will have that in mind, I am going to buy Bitcoins too.

This is my opinion. You are perfect. You realized something that 99% of the people in the world never question themselves. Everybody is in the same situation as you, the only difference is that they are not aware of that fact. No one knows who they are. The problem is that when you realize that, fear appears ... and drives you crazy. You become insecure, etc... why? Because your ego realized that it doesn't exist. And who is in control now? Your ego, so the ego realized that he is not true, so it has not any way to fix that situation. What I am doing is I construct a new ego under the new discovery. I act normally as before. Remember the old zen saying "before enlightenment chop wood and carry water"... after enlightenment "chop wood and carry water". You have to continue going on, just try to do a better version of you. But, to really know yourself you have to do the work. Meditate, investigate, read, follow your intuition and try to be in touch more with the part of you that is more intuitive. Meditation helps to separate yourself from the thoughts and get more in touch with your trueself, not so much with the ego. The ego is a thought. And thoughts are what drive us crazy... sometimes. I found mindful meditation very helpful to understand better our thoughts and separate myself from negative ones and be more and more in touch with the trueself, that is our essence. If you need an example check Leo video about mindful meditation. After sometime of working and contemplating you will have insights and maybe you become enlightened. That's when you finally will know who yo are. And you will just BE what you are, not act like the ego does.

When you finally "get it"

Neither do I

@Moksha ???

You have to say it like this: “Fool’s gold knowing Is” ?

@Breakingthewall It's good that you are questioning and if you find an explanation that it works for you, good... but after some time you will have an insight that will break all what you believed hehehehe... so you create a new one and so on... until you won't need anything more, you will just get it.

Don't try to understand it. Just quiet the mind with meditation and experience it. Logic won't work...

I did some work as a freelance and the customer paid me with bitcoins, but because I was needing the money I had to convert it to dollars ASAP to pay some bills... at that moment bitcoin was $700 and for me it was a lot of money Lol... I think all the work I did for him would be a bitcoin right now. So, I could have $46,570.35 now... Note: That was on 2016 https://cointelegraph.com/news/bitcoin-conquers-price-barrier-passes-700-usd-for-first-time-since-june

When you are looking for enlightenment but you can't find it anywhere...

@Bazooka Jesus Ok, cool...

Awesome experience! Thanks for sharing!!!

@Preety_India I don't like to buy stocks either... too risky

If you want to provide the kind of insights that Leo is doing on video, it will be always a pressure to put quality content out there. That's the pressure he talks about. He doesn't want to repeat himself and he has to organize the material in a way that is understandable. There always will be pressure if you have high standards, like he does. It's not that easy.
