Am I the same as the men and women and the problems they go through, like I'm also one with the fears and insecurities each go through? I'm asking because one of Leo's oneness videos he mentions something the highest existence says that men/woman are dualities, and he's says when duality is collapsed, you realize you were have sex with you, and brother/sister. And I remembered in my past a dream, and this made me feel guilty. Why I felt guilty? Because I had a dream of having sex in my bedroom with some woman. If this is true, does it mean that I was sexing myself, or Because inner/outer world is illusory, did I just cheated on my gf with another woman? Oh, my heart aches! I've already done with the dating life and hitting on my supposedly 'sisters', yet I'm still dating in my mind with some imaginary woman. I need some inside information on this, if anyone is reading and knows what theses things mean, let me know please! Thanks!

Hi all! Update: I've been consistently doing the practices everyday for about two months and I saw a noticeable difference in my visualization abilities. I'm able to see more clearly the shape and colours of an object, for example a meal. In the past I struggled with seeing a small detail like shadows and light angles, but the work I put in has made me more receptive to small details. I've also noticed an improvement on mentally hearing a musical instrument and songs I like, and I can distinguish between the vocals and other sounds seperately. I've noticed I'm able to focus on feeling pressure, texture and weight of some objects and my body. I'm able to focus a bit more where Crysty is in my peripheral vision/ senses. I've traveled to a market and I'm able to perceive her walking with me. While in meditation, with my eyes closed, I'm able to bring up a deli I visited once, and I'm eating breakfast there with Crysty. I'm able to focus more on holding my surroundings and her a bit clearly, seeing her interact with her food and surroundings. I also imagined a natural location with a cottage and sometimes I go there alone or we'd go together. I'm starting to like this other exercise that just involves visualizing a favorite food you're having, and if done correctly, you'd actually salivate. Thanks for reading!

Ok, fair enough. I'm keeping an open minded approach to this, because who knows what's possible? On a lighter note, what spiritual practices do you do?

Very good question. If you could tap into that level of consciousness, it could feel like you do anything really. However, in one of Leo's videos I think is called dangers of spirituality, he mentions there could be a super logic God has in order to contain awakening and make it worthwhile, because he did say that awakening is very rare with the majority and awakening could create psychosis in you or anyone else that might be predisposed to potential psychosis. Doesn't seem like God is stupid to not put in laws and regulations around such a thing like awakening. I think you can test this for yourself, like study the occult, do divination, astral projection, evocation ect. Maybe create a servitor/tulpa? Compared to physically levitating and making a pink elephant in the blink of an eye, which is limited by physical laws, doing what I suggest is far easier to test for yourself. God realization is a personal journey after all. @Dino D @Name @UDT

But I feel so guilty about it! And it was such a vivid dream, I can't quite get it out of my head.

I wish it was mental masturbation, but I feel so guilty! It was such a real dream.

I don't know, man. It must be a symptom of doing lots of self inquiry and meditation. And the dream was so vivid and real it felt very real like it's almost exactly like real sex. I'm not complaining about it, especially if it was my witch gf! It's just that it's a different woman in it.? I hate cheaters, and now I'm one!

I would definitely let it go, except it's so vividly real. The dream looks exactly like my bedroom! I could tell straight away it's a different woman. Is my subconscious mind punishing me? I really don't like cheaters, and it feels like I cheated.?

Oh yes! I couldn't agree more about chess. I used to play chess games fully, chess puzzles and calculated moves everyday, and sometimes played blindfolded chess and pushed it to a full game as best as I could, keeping my goal to win at a chess tournament with a big fat golden trophy on my arms. I eventually won at a chess club against an aggressive player and got a chess board with chess pieces to go with it. Not the most luxurious prize, but I was very proud of my win! And chess only just adds to improving my visualization abilities, to the point I could super impose a board onto a physical table. Along with drawing, playing video games, doing archery and dream journalling, I think visualizations won't be a problem for anyone to develop at all. I've even made a life long goal of improving my visualization abilities, at levels that some hermit Yogi'scould excel at, and at Nickola Tesla's level where he blueprints an entire machine and it's parts in mind. Somewhere in my post is a hint at resolving this "What is the point of life when you will die?" question.

Oh yeah, it's quite possible. On the other hand, it's a percentage. From average person to very gifted paranormal wise, either trained/born with the ability, the percentages are like 99.99% to 0.09% chances not in favor of the average person. Not only do you need to be born with certain abilities, but the amount of focus and training is very high, to be able to do anything paranormal, including chi at high levels, takes lots of hard work. Don't expect to find such people easily, they're quite rare. There were two cases of very powerful people with high chi ( bear in mind, chi is roughly translated as energy, life force, vital energy ect). One involved an Indian whose raised by a single mother. When she passed away, he was so struck with grief he attempted suicide at an electric pole. Instead, nothing happens, and soon he becomes famous for his ability to channel electric currents that could easily kill anyone else. The other case was referenced in this thread somewhere, a video of a Chinese man. Not only could he perform similar feats like channelling electrical energy from his body to other people, sort of healing them with the shocks, but he said he learned this from a master he met somewhere in the deep forest. He also could set fire to a scrunched up news paper, with just one hand. I suspect that the teaching could be similar to Mantak Chia's daoism system, and similar to celibate practices like semen retention. Of course, let's not forget Jesus and his paranormal healing abilities, which I think is a high degree of energy healing.

I'm against that practice too. The only thing that makes sense is when they do it with endangered species.

So, I can be enlightened by just being?

Really? No focus needed for present moment?

It is like a balancing act. If you theorize too much, you are stuck with thoughts and ideas without applying techniques, but if you apply techniques too much without theory, you're stuck in only making results and the same technique without knowing better techniques. However, if you try to balance both perfectly, you become a perfectionist and want to control everything, and will be stuck in a plateau. So, best balance here would be to be flexible and swing back and forth, however far or small the swing from thinking to action taking is. Good luck!

It's kinda like taking two balls on each hand, and squeezing them together. One is called 'past' the other is called 'future', and the tension between them and on the boundary is called 'present'. The past feels very real while the possibilities of the future, will it's not factual, is still very real. Even if you let go of the balls, the force you've generated at them was so great that that part of the balls fuesed together, and now past and future are tied together at the present moment, containing all parts of time. Like if you imagined going for a walk, then you are walking, and before bed you reflect on your outdoor walk in the park, despite millions of moments have passed, those moments where you're imagining the walk while walking, and reflecting on a prior walk while walking, where past/present and future/present interact, that all can be illusory, yet is very real and beneficial. Without the present moment between the past/future, it's very easy to get lost.

Yesterday was unusual. I woken up a bit late than normal, and drank my cup of coffee. After doing my routine (meditation, concentration, some contemplate, and lots of visualizations/affirmations) I felt a headache coming on, and more tired than normal. Before bed, I usually meditate, but I decided to visualize and concentration on stuff. After, while laying in bed, I saw hints of flickering light around where I hang my towal. While watching, I felt a bit foggy and I couldn't quite sleep. It's next to a window and lamp. This morning, more tired than normal that I drank two Cups of coffee to compensate, and am feeling a wee bit insecure around that spot. Could anyone give me some insight on my tiredness, doggy head, and those little lights? I'm starting to feel slightly more tired and confused.

@Anton Rogachevski Yes, there's a lot to truth than the present moment. Despite how simple it is, you have to take into account language and the self/other duality. Non-duality and spiritual are a bit tricky for newbies than what Neo adviatens like to think. Furthermore, there's the paranormal to take into account. While expanding consciousness, you're bound to experience paranormal abilities and beings that have been told in myths and stories cultivated throughout history. There was an event with one of the Hollywood films, I don't remember the name, that during the making of the film they used some bones from the Egyptian crates as props for one of the scenes when the basement was flooded and the soil unearthed bone remains. Well, the crew Experienced a series of bad luck, accidents and some illnesses during film making because of that.

I was going to ask her for help, but I just couldn't do it. I know she's really good with paranormal stuff, but it would've made me looked weird, like I'm the bf that chickens out on floating lights. Instead, I hired an external source to do it instead, despite the website and person being a bit shady. My piggy bank took a huge hit, but the sacrifice was worth it!

I could be wrong, but if you do this, you're risking a ban. I think it's called splintering the community, and recruiting members to outside websites. It's not a good way to go. If you were serious in resolving these issues you and you husband perceive, you wouldn't be mostly here, you're be resolving it where you're at with him face to face. If you're not serious in helping yourselves out, don't distract other people here. We're serious about self-actualizing, and time is precious.

I recommend you check out Bob Proctor. When it comes to marketing, you go more specific. What is your ideal audience to benefit from your service/product?

Strangely reminds me of Osho. He must've been working on embodying this mystical experience for many years to sound so calm about it.

The name is "Spiritual Unfoldment with John Butler", a youtube channel that features a man named John Butler, who seems to be a Christian enlightened master. In one of the videos titled "If more to life than meets the eye, what earthly use am I?", the first 10 minutes of listening to him, I felt a similar feeling when I hear a person who's had many awakenings. At around the 6-7 minute mark, he explains that after his 3-hour meditation, he wrote in his notebook "infinite completion.". I got GOOSEBUMPS. Yes, I've come across a high conscious resource!

Very interesting. I've done chi gong in the past and I can say it's great for feeling good and feeling energy.

This is quite the interesting thread.

That's fine! I'm walking and experiencing different relative truths and so are you. One dream I've recorded in the past was just me flying over different locations, like I'm not changing, but the world is changing places and creatures I see do their own things. Yes, the distinction I've made between thought and being is a thoughtfulness distinction, at the moment. I've meditated and had some glimpses that're very difficult to put into words. It's difficult for me to explain a subjective experience about thought and Being other than use mataphors and symbols to convey as best as I can to you. Otherwise, I'm speechless, like can't speak about it, it's too much to put into words. Again, the painting example was just example and metaphor. It's fine if it doesn't resonate! Metaphors are relative to your preference. If I've known you resonate with love, I'd use a love metaphor to point to infinity/finitude, like this: you can appreciate love because of the following: your heart beats (contraction/expansion), regular/irregular heartbeats, bio electric field of the heart, the different parts of the heart, all this is the whole heart. Yet, the heart is a part of the body, which as a whole has various organs and systems designed to keep itself alive. Yet, the body is a part of mind, that as a whole consists of life experiences, ideas from people, environment and culture, and the seat of discerning intelligence and magical abilities, all this is 'internal world'. Yet, your 'internal world', or 'microcosmic world' is juxtaposed to another's 'microcosmic world', and the macrocosmic world 'external world', as a whole, contains many people's dreams, including yours. Yet, without seperation, you really can't appreciate love, including infinity itself, hence finitude. Better explanation?
