  1. @ajasatya What is the meaning of Just BE? What is the meaning of do nothing? And diff between just BE and do nothing???
  2. @Leo Gura can mushrooms give insight of enlightenment like 5 meo? Mushroom and canabis are the only available substance in my place. Can you throw some insights on mushrooms if you had taken them?
  3. @Pouya I don't know what being aware or just being means. There is always something in the awareness it could be thoughts feelings or body or the i feeling or the waking feeling. But none of them is awareness. They are objects in the awareness. So i dont know what being aware or just being or awareness aware of itself means.
  4. @Aakash is stopping thoughts completely during meditation a must for enlightenment? ?
  5. @kira Go with an open mind no expectations nothing. The problem for me was sitting in vajrasana for long duration. It was painful.
  6. @Aaron p that's interesting ? what's the difference between the two?
  7. @Empty Beautiful. Die and let us know what death is ?
  8. @SQAAD Imo nothing is predetermined. No fate no karma no cause and effect. No one determines everything previously. There is no purpose in creation. So nothing to predetermine. This earth is a tiny atom compared to the universe. The human mind has limited potential to find all the mysteries of creation nature life. Lets accept the limitatons and move on.
  9. @The Don 1. Death is nothing but absence of perception. Daily we experience death in the form of sleep due to not having a direct experience of loosing our conciousness conciously mind doesn't know what it is. Once it is experienced the fear of death will vanish. Beyond that there is nothing to contemplate about death IMO. I am not sure about the meaning death is an illusion by enlightened masters though. 2. Writing is no different from thinking. Absolutely. With out thoughts thinking nothing can be written.
  10. @Robby being in the presence of enlightened persons presence will be a profound and powerful experience? ?Nothing like that in my experience. It's just curiosity and belief that's what I would say. I have met two enlightened masters and spend sometime with them. Nothing like that i experienced. No body can give others enlightenment.
  11. @DrewNows what ever brought to awareness repeatedly vanishes or the mind which thinks the i am the body takes the i feeling to be me which is not the case. The problem of mistaken or wrong identity. This is my theoretical understanding of the process.
  12. @winterknight is just BE and do nothing are same practice or different?
  13. @Aakash ok. I think its better to experience the truth and find it for oneself. Else it's going to be a hindrance. This is what i understand currently from your words.
  14. @Aakash leo says some ppl are deeply enlightenment? Are there any levels of enlightenment? Why some ppl reniunce the world and becomes monk? Ater enlightenment say Ramana Maharishi for example?
  15. @Aakash After realising the truth? Are you free from materialistic desires sensual pleasures anger hate jelousy etc?
  16. @Manjushri @Manjushri Dear you can pursue enlightenment later. First focus on studies career job. That's more important now. If you are having some mental illness take treatment. You will gain nothing out of enlightenment. Enlightenment will not fetch you money educational degree job marriage. In other words your body has to live in this world. Who will feed you? Pay for your expenses? Are your parents rich enough and left you with huge fortune? Don't deceive yourself with enlightenment. Hope you are not trying to escape and hide behind enlightenment for your life situation. Enlightenment will not solve your life problems.
  17. @Enlightenment so whats the solution for mental illness lack of motivation low energy?
  18. @clouffy Take treatment. Pursuing enlightenment requires a healthy body and mind. And enlightenment takes time.
  19. @Aakash what is a fetter? What are the 10 fetters? ?
  20. @BIggleswerth The sense of me or i feeling Is present or absent in nothingness? Nothingness means complete absence of subjective identity. Not just thoughts, feelings. Is it that nothingness you are taking about?
