@hamedsf actually you are right but the light parameter seems to be very strong and persisting of deremine my mood every year. August-October are the worst most of the years. March-May is the best period for my mental well being almost every year!! Thats the periods of time when the derivative (slope of change) of light time and intensity (angle from zenith = radiation) are at maximum. Trust me im meteorologist ? The slope is the most important because the body get accostumed to minimum light in december and january and the effect is decrease. Thats why the absolute light is less important. It is very very strong in my case that what i feel. About the rest of your message - I read all of it but i will read again to make sure i understand you and than I will reply again

@hamedsf just to clarify myself: I am not underestimate it at all. Actually if i was underestimate it I wouldn't ask nothing about it because I would just filter this method out for disconnection. I am asking precisely because I liked it and in order to solve that conflict i have about it. There are two contradicting voices inside of me that both of them sound convincing and thats the problem. What you are saying now is interesting. Maybe there is no way to dissolve the ego without also going with him? So in this way, every spiritual development method will do the both - going with the ego and against it - in the same time?

I agree with you and with Leo that the intelligence of the universe is accumulated and also interconnected with us all the time (even scientificly it sounds right to me) with our trillion cell connections that represent infinite information of the universe, and that you can really see it only under meditative and/or psychedalic states that break the survivle driven brain processing matrix. And also we are interconnected to one global organism and this is also can be explained scientificly (determinism) but the science culture still deny it as a cognitive-behavioral essense (which is become fully acceptable and inherented only around stage Turquoise). I just disagree with Leo about the claim that a specific chemical X can show you the infinite intelligence and another chemical Y doesn't. how can he know? How can we know? And thats why I thought we are escaping to a different game which is far away from the essense you talk about.

To claim that a specific chemical X shows you the infinite intelligence is just a beliefe and a feeling. How can you know how the infinite intelligence feels like? And what chemical shows it? And you start a new game of words and assumptions that can lead easily to a new religion and its easy to get very attached to this magical game and get lost in it.

@Leo Gura It Seems to me a little dangerous to misinterperate changes in the brain as "infinite intelligence". Its not different than all the religion tower cards they build on self experience and getting attached to this thongs instead of the real core behind it. With all the respect Leo i think its a slippery slope. Infinite intelligence even tough I AGREE with this and i think its real and we DO have it -still can't be "seen" through one chemical or another.

It seems (and I am exactly the same like you with my neurosis) that you use this techniques to escape those uncomfortable feelings and as you do that, you are only worsen the duality in your brain between the "bad" place and the "good" place you want those method to take you!

Hunting is natural but animal agriculture in high scales in its organaized or industrial way is an interruption for the natural balance. You can't fix natural problems with artificial steps. Its unhealthy and only create more problems in the system.

Artificial "meat" from cells, tough it can't be healthy, because its artificial, is an acceptable way to spread veganism through altough there is better ways - natural foods. But saying that we need animal agriculture and to keep some of the cruelty to animals sorry i disagree with that.

Nothing in spirituality has to encourage you to die. If it does so - your spirituality is fake, selfish, cultistic and stupid. I Prefer to be pure RED for all my life than this shitpirituality.

I hope you are joking about the suicide.

This test is so simplistic with obvious and superficial questions. Is somebody knows a real test?

I dont think there is a formula of what exactly enlightened people think. They probably care less.

You said it right - can help! Thats why we need a sensitive society and not just libertarianism, because people ARE need help from others from time to time, and not everyone can just "push himself" and quit poverty

Social democracy is capitalism-socialism hybrid with spectrum between them. Vast majority of stage green people don't want hard core socialism.

Marx is NOT stage green. Social-Democrats are.

But why the koch brothers are an obstacle to USA from embrace more green energy? Because they bring a lot of money and the government dont want give up that money and therefore don't have enough motivation to change it? A green government would accepting loosing money in short term to turn to green energy? Is it possible to make such a change within few years? "Right" i meant that their solution is maybe the most practical at that moment. Not that they are right at the essencse of the things. I am asking as still newbie in economics and want to understand better.

So how can we move on to green energy? I see it is much more difficult to imply on high scales. Maybe the koch brothers are right in this case and there is no more efficient way to produce electric energy today? Maybe in the future the green technology will have the capacity to produce high scales electricity.

?

@Leo Gura I just showed the video to a libertarian person i have an argument with, and his answer was: "So we will not produce electricity? What is your alternative?"

I agree with @Commodent Surrender to the stress and negative feelings and toughts. But not in a technically way, its not a technique. In an heart-based way. Tell yourself its OK that you feel this things. That is absolutely fine. Its just the duality your mind has learned during life that make you feel its "negative". Because it learned that some content is "bad" and some content is "good" and it react to this. Its just false duality and NOT the truth! Play with it a little bit from time to time. Challenge your brain "who said this is bad?" Love yourself and let other people support you too. Some dependence on others is healthy! We need to get unconditional love from ourselves and from others because it is a survivle condition we have in our genes. That is the core and the base. Above this base - practice mindfulness technique every day for at least 15-30 minutes. During sitting/walking. See friends and family for good amount of time during the day. And also try to find what the toughts want go say to you. Explore them, but not obbsesively. Only be curious from time to time. Not too much.

@Mezanti How are your relationships with family and friends? Do you feel connected to them or like more seperate to them?

I feel like in that forum there are people who are in the cutting edge of understanding OCD. Who were in CBT and have tried many things and did self investigation and self inquiry for their mental problem and therefore are the richest in their experience. Thats what I think. I just had a relatively hard time with my ocd and my anxiety during last month, and that is although the 3 years of daily mindfulness I have behind me. I also have insights and I'll for sure share it here too. How much experience do you have in your own ocd? What did and didn't help you? Are you doing meditation techniques and for how long? Does it enough to deal with your mental peoblem or not? And just Everything you want to share here about your insights. I think It can be helpful to do an ocd brainstorming here.

You think OCD created, or at least became a serious disorder mainly because of western culture? I thought about it in the past and it seems right to me. In the past people suffer less from ocd.

Yes thank you ? ill try and update?

What do you think triggered this dark night meant in the article? Maybe chemical changes in the body and brain due to pregnancy, which created a snowball and bubbled up of all her psychological issues?
