When you search for 'another', you're really searching for yourSELF. So, while it can be useful to play out the duality of human relationships, to find union, ULTIMATELY there is only YOU.

I would recommend watching Leo's "Body Awareness" video. It did wonders for me.

Just sit down and meditate RIGHT NOW. Focus on your breath, become fully present and SURRENDER. It's not that difficult.

@Revolutionary Think Yeah, he's brilliant. I love his stuff about childhood trauma and breaking from parental influence.

Yeah I watched it. I wasn't being mean, I just thought therapy might help you. But well done on taking action and trying something out, Peace and love man

Antidepressants might help. Don't knock 'em till you've tried 'em.

@ground or maybe a mad ego trip

I was starting to think I existed again. (referring to Time's thread)

I had a very similar experience when I was a teenager. I believe my own experience was 'meant' as a message from my higher self to kickstart my spiritual journey. To show me that consciousness can exist outside the physical body.

That was ridiculous. Be serious about serious stuff. If your Maths teacher said you weren't good enough, then that's abuse, and it obviously affected you deeply. I don't think your exercise is going to change much, I think you need proper therapy to sort out your self-esteem issues.

Really? Then why did he make 20 odd videos on the subject?

Forrest Gump says they're both TRUE. so maybe...they're simultaneously BOTH TRUE and yet BOTH UNTRUE at the same time?? That would be consistent with a non-dual perspective...paradoxically.

Great film. I'll watch that again instead.

@Joshe @VioletFlame Goddamnit! It's not available in the UK. Guess I'll take that as a sign from God I have bought the book on Kindle however, but I immediately didn't like the writing style...

@Joshe Thanks, i'm gonna check that out!

I've heard that people who have passed can actually influence birds to let us know they're still around. Like, one time when I was speaking to someone about something I knew I shouldn't have been speaking to them about, a seagull dropped it's load right between us! Thanks Mum! your experience sounds amazing btw...

Sounds beautiful.

That's one of the coolest things I've ever seen!

This exact thing happened to me with a robin, when I thought of my mother (who has passed). It came RIGHT UP to me. It was beautiful. And yeah I get it now

oooh, hot. I'll have to give that a try sometime.

woah...weird. But I fail to see how this is relevant to this forum,

Dude, if I have a son, there's a strong chance he'll be named Leo.

I have been following you for 2 years now and I just want to say a big thanks for your never-ending generosity, in the way that you give so freely of your time and resources to help educate, inform and transform ordinary people like me. 2 years ago I was not in a good place. I had spent some time incarcerated for mental health difficulties. After being discharged I spent a while in my small, one-bedroom flat, wondering what to do next. I could choose to go back to the lifestyle I had had prior to my hospital admission - drink, drugs and madness basically - or I could try something else...…..I stumbled upon one of your YouTube videos last year and was struck by your direct, articulate, no-bullshit approach. You make your points so clearly, and in such an accessible way. I have watched dozens of your talks. It has been a genuine pleasure to have such a wise, friendly and strict mentor such as yourself to guide me along this path of self-discovery. I have gained so much from your videos! - I have laughed and cried, and had epiphany after epiphany. Your work is truly beautiful and awe-inspiring. I have changed my life around and my mental health has improved greatly. I am no longer addicted, I go to the gym, I meditate, I eat healthier and I am actually happy (I even had an enlightenment experience). I am also half-way through your life purpose course. I just want to thank you from the bottom of my heart for helping to transform my life. It's maybe cliched, but I couldn't have got where I am today without you. Peace.

haha, no about a meter downwards from there

I take it this is some sort of mechanical elf...and could you tell me where to buy one? cos I reckon that would make a nice Xmas gift
