In my opinion, to meditate without thoughts is a samadhi state. When we evolve we can go into deeper samadhi states. After full kundalini awakening a person will lose the sense of duality and see/feel their self all the time, but that's just the beginning in many yoga traditions. Then they use their awakened kundalini to clear all inner distortions, all trauma and so on, this takes many years normally. Samadhi plays an important role in this process, some use it to stop the aging process, to get important insights, to remove fears and so on. It seems that the only people who reach the final stage, Mahasamadhi, and decide to stay in the body are those who have a duty to teach, the others just die and continue their evolution in the higher dimensions, this may change now that we have entered a new age.

I watched some of his videos before, I noticed he has a grandiose self-image. His students are still seeking after following him for years, he doesn't feel bad about taking their money, that's lack of empathy. He has an exaggerated sense of self-importance, he claims he is saving this planet. He is arrogant, looks down on other teachers. And so on. I nominate Jivanmukti, she is very pure and radiates energy like a true teacher should.

@4201 I agree! The problem is that someone can be quite spiritually evolved but still be disconnected from their real self/personality, in that case they still need willpower to function in society. Recently I found a way to become more like my real self, not the absolute, highest self but my 5th dimensional aspect, and the result is that I feel like working almost all the time, things like computer games, entertainment and other nonsense like that is not what our real self wants to do. Work and chores can be effortless and free from resistance!

I like humans, I can see their innocence and love. We are strong! We don't need a break.

You are a human but you are also a part of the oneness/spirit/god. You can say that consciousness is your true nature, but the one who says that is a human being. Some of these new advaita teachers make people think that they are supposed to believe that they are not human, but that's just silly, if you live in your mind then you can have some weird beliefs like that, but if you live in the heart then such concepts doesn't matter. <3

It can be incredibly powerful. For example some channelers can use their abilities to find your unique soul/higher self mantra and then chant it.

Wow your discipline is insane! I really admire that. But I'm not sure hard work is the way to get what you want. All my awakenings happened without even trying, just receiving spiritual transmissions and contemplating on non-dual truths for fun. When you watch this video, can you feel the energies from the transmission? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H5hZMFsAoqo If not, then I would actually put my focus on developing my sensitivity/intuition first. There are a lot of free resources for that online.

No, the false I creates resistance, and surrounds itself with lots of thoughts, but if you need to think a lot at work that is totally fine, those thoughts are good! I study so I also need to think a lot, it doesn't limit my happiness, thoughts are like dancing elementals in our ocean of christ consciousness! Silence is very nice too.

I have felt the same in the past, many of us have. You can feel good and be a happy human! Don't give up. If you or anyone who sees this ever think about giving up, and you have tried everything but nothing works, contact me, I may be able to help in a way that you do not expect, miracles are possible in my opinion.

Being at 1000 feels so good, and the feeling of not being the body is even stronger than in the 600s, some people stop caring about spiritual growth at that level, they let their inner distortions remain because everything feels perfect anyway, they just live their life and enjoy, and because they are so fearless they don't mind if the body gets fat and unhealthy Some yogis say that 1000 (kundalini awakes and rises to the crown) is just the beginning stage, the next step, complete kundalini transformation, takes years and it's not for everyone.

Those spiritual, balanced people without addictions may have a lower level of consciousness than you. Their ego gives them control, they can control their desires and addictions, you can do that too until you reach 1000. But the root cause of addictions still exist; the ego and addiction to the mind, so at 1000 you can truly begin to free yourself from all inner distortions! It happens naturally without any control.

Yes maybe Buddha's path and teachings was about awareness. But the Buddhists found new faster ways to awaken, initiations, sound, transmissions, energy work and so on. There are some very interesting Buddhist schools and temples in my opinion.

Yes in my opinion, when the ego or the I-thought as Ramana called it dissolves and one reaches a higher level of consciousness, the kundalini will have risen to the crown chakra and be fully active. Nirmala Devi talked about this a lot, she said at that point one can meditate without thoughts and sense the oneness everywhere.

@tuckerwphotography RASA I feel much better about. There are free shaktipat transmissions on youtube, Jivanmukti has powerful videos, I think it it almost as strong as the RASA. There is a teacher called Brahman Menor, even though I don't agree with all his words and he is bad at speaking, his energy is incredible, such pure energy, it pushed me into a higher consciousness and completed my journey.

I think you can find better information and guidance for free online. I read about this and I don't get a good feeling of it, I don't think he or his students have fully awakened yet.

Don't focus on two things at the same time, this creates third eye imbalance. Always follow your intuition and feeling, if something feels bad/stressful then take a break or don't do it at all. Try to sense what your intuition is telling you. I think your lifestyle is impressive, I should be more like you, more active, that's actually what my intuition tells me

You are probably right, but I think one has to be ready and really at the end of seeking to reach 1000. If someone is not fully there yet then it would make sense to take time and contemplate longer between each session, that's what worked for me, although I didn't get RASA in the end, I found a free shaktipat on youtube that worked for me. I agree, it's too much, it used to be cheaper, however some RASA givers have much cheaper sessions if you look at their website.

Shaktipat/spiritual transmissions can give you an enlightenment experience, Jivanmukti for example has youtube-videos with strong energies. Guided meditations can also do it.

I have never cried! But yes love is universal and always here with us Good realization, I had that sense of self = love for a long time it's so great!

Great! I also found it helpful when I had a session with her a couple of years ago. My awakening came a couple of weeks after when I was contemplating on a non-duality teaching, so it doesn't always happen instantly, I'm sure Kali is with you now, supporting your evolution.

Wow I really felt it! I felt her energy in that first song. I didn't expect that from some modern song on youtube haha, Kali has helped me a lot before so I guess maybe that's how I could feel it, some type of connection. Btw I think you are right about these things it feels true to me.

I like it, well written. After awakening, when one is aware of self and can meditate without thoughts, one can clear inner distortions quickly by resting in the inner blissful silence. It is yoga.

I guess if everyone knew about this, then the atheists and "logical" scientist people could not have the experience they have now. Their experience and world view is important because it allows them (God) to forget itself and be ignorant and then eventually find itself again. I go to a new age type of meditation evening group in my city. The teacher invokes angelic beings and we help them and the planet and they help us, the energies are super strong and it's always a blissful experience and we learn and grow. Sometimes we "soul travel" which is different from astral traveling, one's consciousness remains in the body but the soul visits a higher dimension and so our human self gets to experience those energies, like the higher dimensions of Venus for example, it's an interesting experience.

@OmniYoga You could try a guided meditation. When you become aware of the absolute it will feel very blissful, you will begin to sense something that was not there before. When I first sensed it after a deep meditation, my future was decided, I absolutely had to find that again and feel it all the time hehe

@TripleFly Great answer! The only thing I can add to that is maybe try Shaktipat because it can raise one's level of consciousness instantly and if one is ready it can become a permanent improvement.
