    I don't remember deciding to "pursue awakening". It just started happening naturally, on its own.

    It's not like I could've said: "nah, this can wait a few more years." 

    I did not choose. I was chosen.

    I did not seek Truth. It found me.

    Exactly. All these talking about whether to pursue enlightenment or not are just mental masturbation. If it's destined to happen it will happen. :x

    Because you can be really awake. It's not a very difficult thing.

    I think for most of the people it's not the case.

     And of course live now from that position, from a position far from being driving in the front seat, but rather in the back seat (I hope this metaphor gets understood)

    Could be that full awakening is not a driving from the back seat but something like a hybrid mode (driving from the front and back seat simultaneously)?

    I am not sure about enlightenment but a few mystical experiences had helped me in relationship with my wife (and other people) tremendously. After these experiences you become more loving and have more empathy to the people. Not a bad things for relationship, family, career, right?

    From the absolute view witch is always there is no free will. So i curious about something.

    Does this mean that what happens in this life is in a way predetermined

    I mean if someone steel's something from me this is what should be. Because that's the reality?

    Do we have any power over manifestation ? Me, the me who is an illusion.

    For example in the last years "i changed" i'm no longer depressed, it feels like "I" made the changes and fight my demons.

     

    The ideea that i'm trying to bring here is if this life, dream, illusion etc. Is something that the best way to get it is to let it be. Because you have no power, individual power? Let go and let god ? True Power is no power. 

    Or we have little power, i mean some power as an individual. Not that it seems that we have power as individuals. And we can make or brake this life ?

    ?


    I want to share with you my concepts related to the topic:

    Whatever happened it was a God will.
    Everything is predetermined but there is no way for a human to read the future (this is by design).
    There is no so called personal responsibility. So, don't blame others for what they did since it was a God (Your) will.
    But still do what you like to do, listen your heart (Intuition). :x
     


  4. Imagine John has a dream with himself and others. Everything in the dream is John (including John character). A John character can make a violence to other dream characters. . . but then he realises that he (John character) is not only the dream character but also a John (who is sleeping), so every other dream character (to whom he did a violence) is also John. With this realisation John, probably, is not going to do any harm to others beings, just live his dreamed life until the real John wakes up.


  5. I think, this work is not about proving. Since being is prio to thinking. Everything happens inside Being, you can't prove it. 

    I can have high states on psychodelics where I may realize that I am. I see that these mistical experiences improve my relationship, my life in general. 

    But you are right you need to do the practices by yourself. Every teachings are just pointers. 

    Godspeed.

    But if i take a psychedelic and my ego falls away, who is experiencing that experience? It still has to be a "you" somewhere in there to experience that. Right?

    you is part of You, when you become conscious of You, you are still there, it's just tiny part of infinity You.

    ... and then you come back and says: "I am You! I was always You. What a mindfuck." :)

    You become directly conscious of it for yourself.  This is prior to knowing.  You BE it.  

    So don't rely on any teacher or take this on as a belief as that would be a mistake.  You are your own authority in the end.

    Is it the same as Leo often says: "You need to have awakening to understand"?


  8. My parents split when I was three... looks like a common thing in this thread.

    Soon my mother found the guy-alcoholic... In general, I think I had normal childhood, that guy loved me, but for me he was mostly like a friend and not father. 

    Anyway, I am grateful for childhood since I think due to divorce I had more love from grandma and grandpa. :)
