  1. great post, preach it brother! and yeah, it kinda leads back to your previous post on seeking enlightenment...its kinda why one awakens when they awaken. Seeking is paradoxical because the ego really doesn't wanna find Truth, as it will be its demise. Truth has to find itself
  2. @TEHUTI I dunno..I'm 50 and never had problems eating 3 or 4 cans of tuna a week haha.. I'm sure I'll get gasps for that..but I love my Infared sauna..use it all the time and do 40 minutes sessions. For anyone that can I highly recommend getting a sauna.
  3. True - I was referring to the ego mind- that sense of a self that possesses consciousness...the illusion
  4. @The0Self Haha..how do you identify with that which is omnipresent? Perhaps by not identifying with that which is local ?
  5. What do you currently believe you are? The body? The brain? A soul? It's the process of deconstructing your mind until something clicks that the "you" was an illusion. Leo's early enlightenment videos are very effective and there are some later ones as well.
  6. How else could they be successful deceptions?
  7. @CreativeMind My advice to you is to stop localizing consciousness to a biological self or to the self having consciousness and others having consciousness...what are you left with? That is the inquiry. Self inquiry really helps with this. If you were already stating this to others struggling with solipsism then disregard this.
  8. You would have achieved the most growth by not giving in to your ego and remaining passive. But you will still gain growth from the lashing out. You grow regardless from experience and suffering.
  9. You are God and you are one creative bastard... Rest assured you will dwell in your own kingdom wherever that may be. There is no where else to go.
  10. You can kid yourself till eternity. It will still be you waiting for you.
  11. @Someone here what you are missing is that reality is paradoxical and transcends logic. You are trying to capture awakening with logic.
  12. @The0SelfAwakening can't be taught. One has to reach it for themselves. The issue with the no self folks or the neo adviata crap is most likely their Awakening was conceptual and not actual. Which is a shame. Of course being a shame is relative. Everything happens precisely as it is.
  13. Before you take the appearance of something be sure it is not your ego in disguise. Yes ultimately this all You Imagining whatever the fuck you want. But ultimately for you to realize your true nature you will need to shed yourself and your own selfishness.
  14. No. It's about selflessness not selfishness. The other responses were all on par. Take a look in the mirror.
  15. @Someone here I've realized that everything is precisely how it is.. That's it.
  16. There's no difference between real and imaginary. It is a duality (which you are imagining/creating) that ultimately must collapse.
  17. @Someone here think of ithe term Consciousness more holistically..As in Infinity. With Infinity everything and nothing cancel each other out and boom...Consciousness. Consciousness = Infinity.
  18. @kray yah cuz in this work it's all about consciousness and you want a nice crisp aware state of consciousness that you can slowly increase the baseline with. If you are drinking all the time you will be always altering your state of consciousness constantly to a lower state not a higher state. Try meditating drunk ?
  19. Absolutely everything is imaginary, without exception. Infinite Mind loses itself in its own Mind so that it believes its real. And imagination becomes reality. But you can start noticing this as you start to become more conscious. It's imagining some things at a much higher level then the level of consciousness where a human is - so normal human levels of consciousness cannot manipulate certain things that are being imagined at higher levels. But once you understand this you can rid yourself of a lot of suffering because it is understood that it is being imagined and control what you can control. It's easy to forget all of this though, and get lost in the dream.
  20. As is that there is a Leo you're trying to convince ?
  21. Yes all of these factor in...but you left out selflessness and honesty. You can embody these in your life and you will slowly start to align with Truth. You can practice selflessness for example when your partner wants to see movie "x" but you really wanted to see movie "y"...yet you put your partner first even if there is a little suffering on your part. That's a small example but it's these little things that count. Or it could be that you give some of your wealth to a homeless person - forgoing going shopping which was where you were heading. It's those types of things. And It's being an honest person as much as you can. These things are hard and I'm by no means claiming to be a saint but these are things that one can work on to align with Truth. Yes this definitely imo critical to reducing suffering because the mind is so riddled with self deception. Yes this too was my path Some people do all of the techniques and are very open minded but it still doesn't happen. Hence the prior factors you mentioned. And when the time is right.... Consider the possibility that you are spiritually gifted. Not everyone has these types of results (the mystical experience after 2 weeks)
