@cetus56 You’re a mod though, and I’m just asking for what I’ve done wrong by sharing what helped me, that’s all?

@Raptorsin7 yes mate, honestly I don’t care what people think, I’m coming from love and just trying to help, those that don’t resonate, that’s cool I hope they find something that resonates with them, as long as they’re happy I am @cetus56 Can you explain why trying to help people is such a bad thing, honestly id love to know.... @Nahm regular meditation, Leo’s and other non dual teachers videos, as well as many books like Eckhart and Adya, basically typical seeker stuff, you could say I was very well prepared, a hardcore seeker to say the least.

@Raptorsin7 genuinely, how can I come across less preachy out of interest? thats not how I want to come across, I just want to help lost seekers (me a year ago) ?

@Raptorsin7 kinda what I’m saying. its not a pyramid scheme, like i wouldn’t be suggesting if it didn’t help, I thought this forum was about helping people awaken and offering the many options available? I get if it’s not, I just didn’t know I was breaking rules by saying something helped me?

@TrynaBeTurquoise bro you’re a legend. Sadhguru says something about this in the Yogic tradition, supposedly they take 24 bites I’m not quite sure how, but defo something I need to improve as I used to eat stupidly fast.

@cetus56 so I’m saying what worked for me and helped me in my journey? can you please clear up what I’m allowed to say, I haven’t posted any links as I learned that’s not allowed. im just wondering what isn’t allowed but I’m merely stating what worked for me, am I not allowed to do that? Please let me know as I don’t want to get warning points or banned etc PS I haven’t promoted myself once?

@VeganAwake exactly, enlightenment is more of an un-learning process than anything else. a great analogy is that of a dirty wind screen on a car, and slowly it gets clearer and clearer until it is pristine, some times the cleaning works faster than other times I’m glad you’re finished seeking, it can be horrible

@28 cm unbuffed yeah post Sauna I’ll have a cold shower as there’s no plunge at my gym, I’ve heard Ben Greenfield talk about hot/cold mix as optimum, so it is probably better! And, awesome I’ll probably restart it then, how many rounds do you do?

@Raptorsin7 personally I think no, I’ve heard of cases where people drop after insights, but that’s not true embodiment and one could argue they weren’t “finished” to begin with. I wouldn’t worry about things like this, I don’t see how I could “forget” my understanding, one day in this “way” is worth at least 10 from before, it’s amazing finally living as if I’m free and being truly happy for no reason other than living as the Self, and to me happiness is the greatest gift of all. The whole reason I started posting here was because I was a lost seeker just 9 months ago, addicted to non duality videos and books, now I spontaneously live in the now embracing every moment as it arrives, life is beautiful

@Raptorsin7 trying to figure everything out with their mind, well that’s what I did at least ? @Inliytened1 thank you, you too man, have an awesome night wherever you’re going!

@V-8 I'm begging you to just leave me alone to be honest mate, I've asked you multiple times whether you're happy with no response. You do you, it's up to you what you do, maybe the book isn't great for you cool. You keep throwing Jed McKenna's quote in my face, to be honest, I don't rate Jed at all, sorry to any of his lovers here, I doubt he's even awakened. The book 1000 didn't resonate with you, cool, your constant bombardment of spiritual knowledge and quotes doesn't resonate with me either, so you do you and I'll keep speaking for what has helped me more than anything All I will see is from your posts, it is clear you are a master of knowledge and will likely take it with you to your grave, maybe then you'll finally realize the beauty of pure being you constantly parrot about. Sorry I'm not up to your 'SD7' standards and I am politely asking you not to post on my threads please, I'm not interested in having non stop arguments with you, if you're superior to me great, I'm really not that fussed mate, this might be hogwash to you, but to me it's transformed my life and made me absolutely happy and at peace. Have a good new year mate, but please leave me alone To me direct experience is king, and my direct experience of reality has radically transformed over the last 12 months as indicated by this post, I hope you had fun debunking the book and adding to your knowledge bro. Try being Happy, it's more fun @cetus56 Nothing to do with that actually, I 'promote' RASA as it's helped me and many others, isn't that what this forum is about? Sharing what helps us awaken and grow as people? @Inliytened1 Couldn't have said it better myself, I'm sure he will hit us back with how we're tier 1 thinkers, don't have a clue and how all our experiences are merely mindfucks

@28 cm unbuffed Forgot cold showers! They're awesome, been doing them for 2-3 years every morning, certainly wakes you up like nothing else, although not sure they are the miracle pill many people make them out to be. I gave up on Wim Hof's breathing method, is it worth pursuing?

@Visionary lol, those decisions were technically correct on Sunday, not our fault the rules are shit ? and you maye enjoy yourself tonight!

@VeganAwake Bro you love your obscure teachers, how much time do you spend finding these guys

Yeah but then what you gonna do with your life post awakening? Not everyone wants to become a monk or teach, find what YOU want to do with your life.

@Nahm There is no you that gets finished of course, what we mean by 'finished' is a complete end to seeking and full feeling of coming 'Home.' Even if there is the slightest urge to go further or to seek, follow it would be my advice to everyone on here.

@Jkhv1 From what I know, it should you be telling them You're finished, not someone telling you, ananda always asks me how do I feel as well as doing the LOC herself, like last call I simply told her I wasn't finished....next call might be different though always remember you're your own guru bro.

@Gneh Onebar I’m glad to hear and it only gets better from here man, the more you stabilise yourself in the now, the more your life will be an enjoyment of spontaneous joy no matter whatever is happening

@Scholar I don’t think he’s reached deeper levels of embodiment and integration. Go read Ramana and Nisgardatta for the deepest levels possible. however in terms of insights who knows, he takes a lot of psychedelics which not many people have done before, but at the end of the day it’s about 24/7 level of awareness.

@MAYA EL @Jed Vassallo I’d like to put a counter argument here. I get the teachings are there, but for a lot of people they won’t help that much, there’s so many out there who’ve been seeking for 40-50+ years and still don’t get it. I would also argue once you awaken to The Self, and realise all are you, you want nothing more than to help people in any way you can, and what greater way than to help them end their suffering? while I also agree a limited amount of people can make videos and write books etc, I feel a more efficient method exists in working 1-1 with people on their unique awakening process and then also using transmissions as part of this teaching. that is what worked for me, and without the 1-1 intervention I’d still be a hardcore seeker for sure, stuck in my mind.

@Gneh Onebar I’m happy for you man, I also believed it was all BS beforehand, goes to show what an open mind and trying things for yourself can do, best thing I ever did @Visionary someone here who gets it is nice to see silence is and always has been the highest teaching, Ranana created inquiry for those not ready for the silence, to lead tbem to where? Silence of course. @Raptorsin7 Every teacher will have their own style, Ananda loves the enneagram so strongly uses it in her teachings, however others may not, I’m 90% sure Ramaji does but not to the same extent I don’t believe, he’s an awesome teacher and I loved his books though, hope the session goes well, so let me know

@V-8 I would like you to answer from your direct experience instead of quotes, your current direct experience of reality:) and whether you are happy?

Well done bro, that’s an awesome insight. i often used to ask what’s the purpose of life etc, always I instantly answer now to be happy, enjoy this experience and have fun. awakening makes us independent and gives us the ability to think for ourselves and do what WE want, not what society or are parents want for us, but what makes us happy (on a human level) as we are absolutely happy, and have no need to succumb to certain expectations of us, and it’s all coming from love, which makes it even more beautiful

I would say look beyond experiences, while great, integration and embodiment are what matter. living life moment to moment as a spontaneous flow is what has made my year special, living life knowing everyone is merely an expression of The Self, and is me is what has transformed my life. Living life fully embedded in the Now, whatever that may be is what has revolutionised my experience. If you’re looking for experiences what helped me most was RASA, and working with a teacher 1-1, but what matters most to me is truly embodying it and feeling like I’ve been reborn again compared to my level of conscious awareness this time last year (mild depression and avid overthinker).

Awesome post bro, it’s always this and always will be THIS. you know the mind doesn’t exist right, only thoughts ?
