Just don't overthink it. I was on this socializing event in Germany and I was practicing this approaching, because there were so many people and each of them had their own unique story, so I really wanted to hear them all. I went to a table of 10 people and told this girl: Hey, you look like Hermione. But actually, when I look closer, your eyes are Harry's mother's. Then I escalated that joke like 5 more times and everyone was laughing. It was just a random thing, I didn't really think about it, just saying what comes to my mind. I am in contact with all the people there till today.

Then try to find that love, it is closer than you think. In fact it is right here, you just don't get it It is certainly healthy to work on yourself like that, but if you are doing it out of this motivation, I don't know how far you can actually go. I mean, are you trying to be happy or perfect?

I mean, if you actually read this advice, it is kind of valid, but still, it is really hard to fall into the ego trap and start using it as some sort of judging tool. @lmfao He means that for example Sadhguru has more well developed beige than some fat guy who is sick all day. I understand the second point like that it is kind of harder to for example run a business, if you don't have a supportive family or some other safe place to go when you burn out or something like that... It is not literal, but if you take it with a grain of salt, it can make sense, at least for me.

@NoSelfSelf It still sounds better than stalking though

lmao

@LoveandPurpose Escaping wage slavery will require discipline, you can train discipline by getting good grades

@CreamCat Are you developing yourself out of love or out of striving to be the best?

@Aeris What are you even talking about...

Just start it, it isn't weird, I do that all the time when I go to a new place If you think it is weird, it will be weird though.

@Aeris Why do you judge them like this? Aren't you still a slave?

Don't get deluded by the devils, but also don't judge them, as judging doesn't lead to any growth on your side

Good, but don't forget to keep training yourself to be able to contribute others better and to have a sharper mind when needed. Also be careful not to become addicted to that stuff you're taking.

@Aeris One of the best things it gives you is, that you are no longer a slave of your cravings.

Thanks Charlotte

@Vitamine Water Yeh, that might do the trick

It is very interesting, how one's confidence with the language they are speaking at the moment can affect their behavior so bigly. (I love that word Heard it for the first time here, thanks ) I've seen this quite attractive Italian girl, who you would assume is confident, but she only was when speaking Italian! She became a completely different person when she was speaking English with me.

@Salvijus I'm so proud of you

@Salvijus Everything is very simple, when you get it. The problem is to find it Sometimes it is hard for us to go back in time and feel the other person's struggle.

@Salvijus Q: I personally don't understand what is meant by this observing thoughts. A: Just observe them, then use your intuition and you will do just good. @Ampresus Your mind is like water and thoughts are waves. There are no waves without water and there is no water without waves. By trying to stop waves, you will only create more waves on the surface.

@Salvijus I get what you mean, but lol still. @Consilience What is your body posture like? What are your intentions? Are you actually aware?

@Ampresus You are expecting presence to come to you in the future, you are bullshitting yourself big time

@Joker_Theory Zazen is what I do. But it also depends on how you practice. Don't expect Wakeness to come to you in the future

@EnlightenmentBlog I am not using it this way. It is obviously not true, that it is the ultimate key to everything, you are absolutely right. Where is the discouraging?

@inFlow Yeh, I understand what you mean. Let's just say that Nahm has a different idea about what is practical. After some time, you understand, that these mind games are not practical. You will feel like saying things in the lines of: Should I take a break from this path, or should I push harder? Answer to that would be: Who is taking a break? Who is pushing harder? You get what I mean, right. In case you want a practical answer, do as it suits you the best. Make sure, that you understand and embody all the things that will bring your career to the next level. Only finishing the course might tick a task off of your list, but it is practically „useless“. If you go through it quickly, without making sure that you have grasped all the improtant things fully, you would've wasted your money. This same concept applies to the spiritual path as well, have mystical experiences, but interpret them well and act on them. You can either get mystical experiences and than proudly sit on your ass, without contributing society and tell everyone what to do, or you can also just live in love, compassion and discipline, be there for people when they need you, do your best in this life
