Reality is working and spinning non stop, things change, opportunities open/close up. If you do have a good meditation practice and you do have a good "gut feeling" or intuite things well, when time comes you might feel sometimes strange urges to do something, maybe go outside at a random time, maybe stop somewhere and take a different path. It feels way different to how you are used to operate in life, in other words this Gut feeling or intuitivenes will somewhat challenge the EGO. To act/be/do different. You might not like what is being told to you, or you might not like how you feel like doing. But that's God calling you. At a given time, reality can arange so precisely that YOU might be needed in some sort of situation. Maybe that situation could be to help someone, maybe you will find someone that will say something to you, that will change your life and vice/versa. OR maybe you might bump into a girl! But also don't be a pussy and talk to her! (I've chickened out a bunch of times) The gut feeling will call uppon you to take action, maybe go to a park, what ever that might be you WILL NEED TO LISTEN to it and take action immediately! Reality wont wait for you to think about, logic your way around it. If you will miss it, nothing bad will happen, but start to notice these call-outs that you are getting, and later you will develop such a great "ear" for these call outs and you will take action without any thinking. These call-outs wont happen daily. Maybe it might, but it takes times for reality to arange itself that you will fit in there. And sometimes when you get a good gut feeling to go somewhere and you do and nothing happens (you dont meet anyone) then that means the other side didn't comply with their call. Im talking from my own personal experience, I don't even remember how many times I have failed God given call-outs for me. But it takes some times for you to actually grasp these things and understand that it's a thing!!! LISTEN LISTEN AND LISTEN MORE!!!!!!!! It's very subtle and deceptive.

It's real. But the question for you is, will you practice it enough to awaken it? Find a legit guru and he will awaken if for you, you will just need to do the practice.

@Insightful27 Practice yoga and eventually you will not even need a cushion. You need to sit in siddhasana/padmasana without any problems for hours deep in meditation.

@enchanted A lot has to do with survival. If you are born in a slum you only can operate on that level and not go any higher than that. Well you can, but you wont survive. And if only way to make a living (survive) is to dig sand then you will dig sand all your life and having a higher IQ threatens this. When you are born to a 1st world country your survival is EASY. If you still think that IQ is what going to take you to spirituality you are mistaken. One need high amounts of consciousness to be in spirituality. IQ is just a number for stupid people to measure their ego, just like you would measure your dick and compare with friends. Truly depressed people have illnesses that the brain no longer creates dopamine/serotonin. A simple person without an illness, who is depressed just lives a bad life, probably eats bad food, doesnt exercise etc.

@Vibes My guru charges what ever I put in the box for a hour of her time. There is no set price.

"Aghoranna paro mantro nasti tatvam guro param."

The Guru will find you. Just be open.

@SQAAD

By doing Kriya yoga you can feel like you are micro dosing - every day. But without the side effects and body loads.

In my personal experience weed helps me connect dots very well. I just start to understand things very deeply to the point of mystical experiences. It just sort of helps me to see the little things that I haven't consciously seen/understood. I found that if I smoke weed once every week or once every two weeks it works the best. Buuuuuuut if you smoke it every day it's just stupid. And I'm guilty of that for so many times. The thing I dislike the most about weed is the brain fog that you get after it. If you do it like I mentioned once every week/two weeks then it's manageable, the next day you do some cardio and it sort of goes away. But if you do it on a daily basis you just "kill" yourself, you become so numb. Not interacting with other people in 100%. Actually I can see people who do smoke a lot and just know that they do just by looking at them. And in a way I don't want people like that near me LOL. Actually by smoking weed I fixed a lot of shit in my life. In the early days it sort of helped me open my mind. Some people just need that boost to open their mind, some people don't. I don't advocate that anyone SHOULD smoke weed.

Yes.

LOL, this idea of one life is what is ruining this entire earth.

@khalifa Seems like you have blocks in your system. Have you ever done any yoga practices?

@Ima Freeman Fear of death is the biggest challenge to overcome. It's why we are alive, because of fear, fear is very crucial in order to survive, so you should not be afraid to be in fear at those moments. Everybody has a limited amount or prana given at birth. Even if you live a healthy life and your prana is done even thunder out of clear sky can strike you and your body will die. Car crash, heart stops etc, can happen. When I do yoga, at the end there is one more pose left, the corpse, or shavasana. In there you let go of everything, you relax your body to your max, and when body scanning, I let go of my arms, legs so much that I tell myself "I don't need it anymore" as if I was going to die. If you can surrender very well you actually smile and accept "death". And I noticed that I no longer am afraid of death compared to how it used to be. But don't worry if your body dies, which it will, you will get a new one at some time Knowing what WILL happen after you die makes it more acceptable of one's death.

@meta_male of course, I had my fair share of time online watching gore videos when I was a teenager. Then I thought that it hardens you, like a MAN! But watching this for extended periods can make you feel bad. My friend once told me he was watching a netflix series "How to get away with a murder" (it has a lot of murder themes as you can tell :D) and told me that in two weeks of watching it, he had experienced depression, a mild one, but it had a impact. He discontinued to watch it after he noticed this.
