  1. Which is exactly what Jesus, Mohammad, and all the enlightened people tried to do. And their teachings were turned into a collective ego. It's really not that easy convincing people. People will even convince themselves that they are convinced and end up completely misrepresenting what they follow, twisting it in accordance with their egoic agenda. Which is what happened with religion. The ego is a tricky beast.
  2. Because of ego and survival lol Not a lot of people who want to completely shatter their ego and belief systems Summed up pretty well
  3. I can tell you some basic tips but it is wise that you are consulting a doctor -The white noise from your fan can have a significant effect on helping you sleep, so I don't think it is hurting you -Try to keep your room as dark as possible by closing all curtains and such things - It is better to have a cold room than a hot room, keep your room cool -Avoid caffeine and stimulants -Try to avoid blue light from computer screens, phones, and light bulbs. You can download blue light filters if you wish. -Try not to force yourself to sleep -If you exercise or go for a long walk early on in the day it could make you tired enough to sleep. Don't exercise too close to bedtime though.
  4. I mean not a lot of people who are willing to completely shatter their ego and belief systems Makes sense it would be rare
  5. Oh yes I have had this happen before. One of them wasn't even a dream but a thought I had before I fell asleep. I remember dreaming about being in my house with the sound of an azan (muslim prayer) calling through the streets. Then, the next day I was informed that a law was going to be passed which allows mosques to publicly signal their azan for prayer, and I confirmed I never heard about it before the dream. Like you said, it was very specific and generally irrelevant to me.
  6. Those are not things, since they are impossible. Just words and scenarios in your head. Hence, nothing is impossible.
  7. Such a great insight, I love it I feel stupid for not understanding this cause it's so simple
  8. Might as well say nothing is impossible, since unconsciousness ain't even a thing. You're talking about nothing.
  9. 1.5x speed Also I listen to it while doing other things and take notes when something significant enough comes up
  10. I disagree. It actually is possible to experience absolutely nothing while being aware, AKA turiya. Deep sleep is different than turiya/experiencing nothing. In fact, the "experience" of deep sleep (unconsciousness) doesn't even exist. It is an extrapolation created by the finite mind to explain the change between being asleep and awake. The idea of "unconsciousness" has always just been in your imagination and not in your actual experience.
  11. Yeah this is very important. I've seen cops with absolutely 0 people skills that made the situation way worse, so clearly something is missing in that department.
  12. he did one on this already
  13. Yes, ego also applies to objects and habits in your life. The more emotionally invested you are in something, the more vital it is to your identity. Smartphones are definitely a big one since it is such a big part of "my" everyday life. And, if my smartphone didn't exist, it wouldnt be "my" everyday life anymore. (see how the ego looks at your routine and claims ownership of it? This is how it makes things personal and creates an identity out of it)
  14. go for a walk preferably somewhere in nature
  15. Leo

    @dflores321 "some people like that some people hated that" lmfao
  16. @Roy Yeah I also sleepwalked quite a bit when I was little The one I saw looked like a child with a sort of blue tint/glow. I 100% saw it though, no mistake about it. I remember looking at my mother to see if she could see it but I was just a baby so I couldn't really say anything.
  17. Well, not really. You don't have to know about ghosts to see one. It's just when I think back the appropriate term is probably ghost or spirit or whatever. Haha its actually not that uncommon I'm not sure what my exact age was obviously but I'm pretty sure I would be considered a baby
  18. Yeah the only reason I remember it is because it was such a shocking experience I remember looking around to make sure I wasn't dreaming
  19. I saw a ghost/spirit when I was a baby It seems children see this type of stuff more often, maybe cause they're more in touch with their intuition
