If you've been doing yoga that might be the reason. Yoga works in the body and energies in certain ways to let you separate your true self from the chains of the body. So body doesn't feel like a budern so much anymore, there is a certain distance from it and a "lightweight" feeling to it because of this. Some yoguis even say that you can get to a point of only feeling your spine and completely lose sense of the rest sensations of the body. So "using" your body for whatever is needed doesn't become anymore a hassle but a joy and effortless tool to use.

Oh wait, maybe I'm still in that "state". Maybe that state is the Truth 😶🤯 regardless of thr internal thought process or mental fluctuations @Water by the River

With all due respect you guys are going too extreme on that "don't project". Obviously women are 100% saints are males always to blame. I know a guy that have never had problems getting laid with lots of women yet he bitches a lot about feminism. Speaking about it doesn't necessarily mean you are an angry incel...

Amen to all of that

What is high status?

Some of you guys read some of my dramatic topics of some weeks ago regarding a girl I went on a date with. The following weeks after losing contact with this girl I got triggered by a deep trauma. I no longer could numb or eliminate this pain/feeling so I had to feel it fully. I realized I need to look at this pain, observe it, feel it, don't have fear of it. Following weeks I've realized the awkwardness, shame or anxiety with people in certain situations, was actually just things that were covering this pain. I realized "social anxiety" is just anxiety of not feeling that pain, those beliefs of unworthiness. So basically after this realization I have lost all fear (or at least, I would say 90%) of feeling that pain. This weeks the way I relate and speak to people has shifted. I am in an open state, I just completely open and feel that pain trauma in the stomach when I'm with people, and since I'm completely surrendered to it, I speak freely and without any trait of shame or awkwardness. Even my voice has completely changed in this weeks. I have a voice more masculine and confident now. I don't how things will continue but the future seems bright. A shift happened and this seems like a superpower. I don't feel I need any more techniques or personal development tools anymore. Just opening myself more and more to this pain, observe it, feel it, surrender to the feeling. If some of you guys have this type of trauma with relating with people I would advice you be very honest with that you are feeling, don't be scared of going deep into the pain, open yourself, go 100% on to it, don't be scared of the fear of the mind that tells you "you can't feel this, you need to avoid feeling this, I'm just protecting you". No no no. Those are just tricks. You need to see what is there. You need to feel that pain, you need to see who you are. Don't be tricked by the mind. Trust the heart.

The thing is I'm not even close to the point of stabilizing this Oneness state of being, so I'm not at a point of going "deeper " my friend

That's a top notch actualized member 👌🤣

Yes, is pretty crazy. You will need to some time to process it. Once your mind settles you'll see you being alone is not something bad at all, but rather the only option Love was possible. Signed, You.

Would you say the simplest definition of non duality is experiencing your surroundings (vision, sound, ...etc) as you/ yourself ? Or in other words experiencing what appears in front of you or the sounds that this objects emit, as part of your mind, as phenomena that is actually happening inside your own mind. That would be Love

Why? Im not saying objects or sounds that are not in 'my' current experience do not exist though

definetely not

...what prevents you at any moment from tapping into a high state of being you were in "2 years ago" when you were meditating? I think we all agree that one of the challenges of this work is maintaining the state of being. Anyone can get to the peaks, but who can stay there for more than a few minutes or hours? Well what I'm talking about is that if you are sitting normally in a normie state of consciousness, it might be possible to "swift" your consciousness and energy vibration to the one of the memory of that moment when you were meditating 2 years ago and you were feeling so good. This doesn't have to do with mentally remembering how good it felt, no. It would be more that your body and energy system remembers it how that boundary dissolution felt, and instantly activating that blissful ecstatic non dual state of being. There are some awakenings (and sorry, but in my experience, usually psychedelics can not do this), that if are intense and clear enough, the experience is so crystal clear and intense that one can "re-activate" that because in a way it has been "saved" in the configuration/memory the body. In the same way your mind has memory and a traumatic event can be saved for ever, your bliss body (that which is experienced when body dissolves into boundlessness state) also saves this experiences in a sort of memory too.

Because there is a big difference between brainwashing yourself with Oneness and actually experiencing Oneness. Because there is a big difference between telling yourself reality is Love and actually experience Love/Non duality. The mind is tricky. It can make you think you "got it", yet there's nothing to get or grasp, there only is to Experience/Be. Are you experiencing Oneness Now? No? Then your idea of "Reality is One" is only an idea, not an actual experience. And if is not an actual experience, if is just an idea, then your current human experience is not more or less joyful or boring or anxious that other human that didn't do a single hour of meditation or a single psychedelic Ideas mean nothing. As long as you give any sort of importance to the mind, you will be stuck in the macabre trick of conceptual knowledge. You will think you have a tremendous knowledge, yet, again, if your current ACTUAL experience is no difference than another human that did not do a single hour of meditation, guess what! The mind is tricking you. Actual Oneness have the "side effect" of your inner being and energies feeling Blissful/0 fear/0 anxiety. Notice your elegant ideas about God or Oneness Vs Actually how you feel. As long as most people get comfortable with ideas of Awakening, instead of pursuing/valuaing Actual Awakening/State of Being, then most people will keep behaving in unconscious ways your 1000 past awakenings will not mean much. Bitter pill to swallow, but I hope we start being honest with what we are at.

@Princess Arabia It depends on how you define intelligence . For me intelligence is the ability of being able to handle your mind and body to work for you. It doesn't have to do with logical or mathematical or analytical thinking.

Cold approach won't necessarily heal their autism. But good work nonetheless I guess.

You probably have trauma of nice guy you probably need to release that before continuing. At least that was my case. Having said that what a fucking distopian society we are in that we have to become "monsters". I don't recommend watching too much Jordan peterson

If God was intelligent wars or violence wouldn't happen...As a society we are at a point we have basic survival taken care of so there are no excuses for it. God is not an intelligent being... is an unconscious being. It can become conscious, but we must facilitate that. Is a mistake to think: 'I´ll outsource everything to God! Everything will be alright! God knows what it's doing!" Oh my god...no! God is not in the sky caring for you. You are God! And chance is...you are Unconscious! You are in a compulsive, driven by fear, unconscious state most of the time, you need to take responsibility to change that. There's nothing outside of you that will take that responsibility. God = You (Also the rest of beings). God right now is not smart, is driven by compulsions. Look at the world. Look at the current wars. That's God being asleep and in compulsive unconscious state. Until we don't come to a place where CONSCIOUSNESS is priority number one, God will be eternally making a mess out of itself.

Maybe there is no physical reality or others sure, but maybe there is neither God, Truth, human life or solipsism. If you guys want to slice everything that the mind constructed, fine, go ahead, but actually slice EVERYTHING! Not just the mainstream narratives (material reality, science, etc...) But also the spiritual narratives. And yes, that INCLUDES all apparent 100% true insights that you have gotten through psychedelics or mystical past experiences. Contemplate that it might be limiting you. Contemplate that it might not be wise to hold any ideas you have about reality or yourself, as true that might seem, no matter if you have gotten them through "Truth delivery tools" like DMT or whatever. Actually think about this: What if Reality is not ANY of that shit, what if there is an emptyness so empty of content, that even saying God or Mysticism is already filling that cup with something. And yes, it might seem that "something" is very significant and important, but what if is not. What if actually you are fucking up the Total Empty Bliss that there is, with your elegant buzz words and profound mind scapes that you mind has again constructed with spiritual experiences. Have you actually come to a place where the mind is SO still that it completely disappears and you enter a place where NOTHING of that shit exists? In that place God doesn't exist, time doesn't exist, reality doesn't exist, body doesn't exist. Only Empty Perfect Bliss. I wish we would stop filling our minds with crap for once.

David deida is full of s. Don't read that guy

vaya rollos metes tio

Is cute to think like that. When you actually care about solutions, drop that hunky dory new age narrative. Notice how you are treating the 'absolute' as something outside of you.

To what role could I transition coming from software dev? I want to stay in the tech sector but I´m tired coding. I mean I could keep doing this but first I feel like an impostor I just don't care at all about the coding technologies/programming languages, I absolutely do this for the money and nothing else. I also think I could be better asset in a less technical role, maybe Project Manager/Product owner? The only downside I see is that I don't have a university degree, so not sure how difficult it would be to get my foot on the door on this more business management-types of roles. Has anyone done something similar to this ?

@blackchair Precisely because I'm honest abot that I'm writing this. When those kind of experiences happen, it lets me see how little work I'm doing. How little I have gone. Honesty is important. I don't see this in this forum that much. @Princess Arabia the point I'm trying to make is that Awakened individuals do not exist. Leo won't like this. As I have said several times in the past, Awakening is not a chunk of knowledge you can one day "achieve" and save it on your closet for ever, so later you can say you are an "Awakened Being". No such a thing. I have touched increible states of being and lucidity but they do not matter if one can't hold them for more than a few minutes or a few hours at most. Only when you know how to manage your energies and state of consciousness at will you will be an "Awakened individual", since no person will choose to be asleep if having an option. We all being there ? @Breakingthewall amen

I never experienced 5-meo as a pleasant thing. At most in breakthrough states/ego dissolution, it feels forced and is not my cup of tea for sure .
