Ok embrace yourself with this question, I cannot set it up fluently cause Im not a native English speaker, hope you understand. So by "meditating" I began to witness a gap between the body+mind and Awareness, the ultimate I'am. Awareness observes everything that is happening, but one day I just got so confused with this one: By observing thoughts I witness the inner voice, the random chatter about anything. And then when I notice the voice I use another voice to talk about and get a grasp of what the 1st voice is, but I kinda have to create a 2nd inner voice. And the most confusing part was that there was no difference between the two voices. One was sort of passive, one was, as I understand, active/conscious. Shed some light on my confusion, am I even doing the thinking or just thinking happens on it's own?

@Leo Gura This post had me remember this one experience I had this summer. I have met with a girl that was super conscious/spiritual, and one day we met and I just observed her in everything that she did, and somehow I noticed that her inner "soul/being/awareness/consciousness" is very old. I don't know how to describe it, but I just intuitively picked up the feeling that the "soul", or what ever you wanna call it, that was inside of her body was very mature and old. You can just observe and sense one's inner "soul".

@Kuba Powiertowski I think that digging through past lives is not beneficial.

Always

I can agree with you on this. Sometimes it feels like I've met some of the people somewhere else. It's a very strange phenomenon.

@Batman The witness is who I'am in the end. The body and the mind is separate from the witness. That's why I wrote that there comes a bigger gap between the body+mind and the witnessing consciousness/awareness. Thank you for your reply. @Galyna @Breakingthewall Thank you, it makes way more sense. Now I can go deeper.

thank you for this.

@Breakingthewall But does the voice stop? I do my Kriya for some time now, and it feels it's getting worse.

I can confirm that I've had these moments where even the voice in the mind just talks such nonsense. Begins with something and goes off anywhere, it's like WTF is happening.

@Arthogaan What he said.

@Danioover9000 In my own experience that is the case.

@StarStruck oooh that's a nice tip about the push-ups. Thanks, gonna try it and see how it works.

Recently I noticed that my focusing was out of touch. Reading books is a nightmare, I have to re-read the sentences over and over again, because I cannot "grok" what is being written and my minds creates stories about what is being written making me distracted from the actual book. I do my meditation practices, workout 6 days/week with cardio in the morning and evening and my diet is clean. But it seems my mind has started to run somewhere on it's own and I cannot maintain focus. Some days are are very bad. And now all this week when I lay down in bed in the evening and try to read books it's just impossible, sometimes it's just so bad that I wanna cry. What can I do to battle this distraction?

@StarStruck just brute force and some great info on what is happening in the mind. Understanding dopamine release system was very key for me. "Andrew Huberman" talks a lot about that. And also just brute forcing myself to change my habits. It has stuck with me very well. But I'm still having quite a hard time quiting p0rn. That is the hardest challenge I've ever faced.

@Ulax I actually don't know if I have any at the moment. I actually changed my life quite drastically in the past month. So I don't have problems as I'm concerned.

@Vladimir my perspective is that you lack understanding some aspects of reality. But don't be sad. Same goes for me.

@Vladimir wrong

@Harman Congrats of seeing Truth. Truth always calms.

@Vladimir There ONE reason for reality to be/come into being, what is that reason?

@pablo_aka_god I wanna add that on a Daily basis when you have some time bring those insights from your trip to mind and contemplate about them, it will help you integrate them faster. After my trips a couple of week after I still get insights when I think about my trip and what I saw. That's integration! After you have build up some of those insights then do more. But give yourself atleast 2-4 weeks between trips.

@pablo_aka_god Always notice and think about why there is that space in that trip, later you can contemplate it and integrate the experience in sober every day life. You need to understand that those experiences can be integrated and it feels so wonderful to live life filled with Love that you practiced for so long. You saw what you need to do, now do it, build up and later take more.

@Adodd Just don't fap for a couple of weeks, then unload it and see how you feel.

@Illusory Self Do you work out? Like on a daily basis are you fit? I have the same problem, finishing too early. I also had a "Tantric" course about sex from a great guy and he teach me a great technique for just that thing, it doesn't take much time to do like 5~minutes daily and it works after a couple of weeks of doing it. But you gotta do it for it to take effect. Contact me personally for more information.

NOPE
