It will work if the human who hypnotizes you has a very balanced life. Otherwise, your subconscious mind will be bound to him/her, until you discover your own true self. I don't know.

I had similar problems in the past. In my experience, it was that my being focussed too much on the head/mind. Start meditating and focusing on the opposite side of the body (south). Pain will rise but it will get into bliss after the drama. Best of luck!

From my experience, I'm more energetic now in my 30's, than I was back then in my teens or 20's. Total relaxation is a life change.

The soul is the mind in today's society. Get rid of it. Karma is your action, you slap me and I will think bad about you, this is an example. To escape my bad feeling you will have to discover your true self, another example.

Yoga is not for the uninitiated.

The key to Courage is Cowardness. Like an addict to something, has to admit he/she is an addict. One has to admit full Cowerdness in order to move on and discover real Courage. The most powerful motivator in life is going into hopelessness, hope is a mistake.

@Viking The art of Grounding.

Go full throttle on Breath. When you feel attacked you go offensive.

The best way for a yogi life is to find a place in the countryside or nature. Following another system of spiritual groups will only diminish your growth. Take the example of Gautama if you are really ready for this. The breath will guide you faster in an alone situation. If you feel that you need people around, then you are not prepared. I don't know.

One has to literally lose the mind and go insane, then come back and realize that; it is called awakening. I'd quit any drugs. Kundalini is more powerful than any psychedelic taken externally. Take in mind that any psychosis is an uncontrolled Kundalini reaction. I don't know.

That sadness you feel is the returning home to yourself, to an atrophied body/mind. It will last until your being gets in homeostasis and healing.

Enlightenment cannot be spoken nor conceptualized.

No different from Christian indoctrination, just it has different images.

Hahaha... Awakening and Enlightenment is not something you want, trust me. Is more tedious and painful than winning Mr. Olympia. It does not take much effort to see reality as it is, drugs maybe will do it, or high stages of meditation. The point is reaching all that and maintaining a balance all time. It is an eternal growth, as evolution is.

Tapping in 1st chakra with it.

They see the ancestral memory in the past, present & future. "Past Life" is only the perspective on the mind, a narrow point of view & a trap for the unawakened.

Take in mind that Gautama did not write what you are describing. His disciples wrote it, and in time got lost the depth of it.

Very nice logical pointers. but... The main reason is the wound made to us all in our own "sling & stone" (David and Goliath story). Ego cannot be removed, only updated.

Tap in your own being and you will be able to reverse that you are afraid.

@cetus56 ?

As body/mind and entities we are as humans, no one is equal. Only on paper, and maybe opportunities in business.

You are funny guys

Enlightenment is more than realizing absolute truth. Any uncharted territory in the body/mind, the being will translate that into Pain. Going into that Pain (the greatest opportunity), after that, the agony will translate into something very different. Pain is the greatest guide, why? Because the conscious mind did not explore the full body, due to social indoctrination. As shown in movies, in a higher state of being there is no more "remorse". Meaning, one will become one with the Great Change we see all around. The pain people talk about is just a condition in the general mass, a mindset.

After suffering Gratitude arises, until then is just forced.

Don't blame God. Society did the "ego" thing. But the knowledge is lost how to escape it & only a few know. Basically, the majority don't have the opportunity to escape, the cause being education from a little child.
