An young being

India would be in a bad mood for a few days as they just lost the cricket world cup.

Trauma itself I believe is mainly caused by the memory of the event. If you were a monk that time during the trauma, you wouldn't be having much negative reaction to it even during the trauma and you won't even register a bad memory. But we humans are susceptible to the following effects: 1. The past perceptions about the event from external sources which magnify the effect when caused to us and determine how bad the trauma is. 2. The strong registration in memory of the present reactions happening within the body during the event both physically and mentally. 3. The constant recall of the bad memory every day in the future, adding up to further bad and distorted memories along the way.

I do slap myself some time lightly to become alert or simply for fun.

What I think is that a balanced approach will do wonders. He can do everything that you stated as fun activities and still study well. For that, the importance of education must be realised as much as the importance of mental health. In the end, all will be balanced, it's just what kind of experience we choose to have: in this case, 1.extreme happiness with zero effort for a short time followed by misery for a long time or 2.extreme sadness with 100% effort for a short time followed by happiness for a long time or 3. satisfaction all the time with no spikes in happiness or sadness. This is just an example, the balancing act is far more advanced within the mind than we imagine. What I believe is, there is nothing special we need to worry about with regard to correcting the world or make it a better place, especially if we wish our mind to be peaceful. Naturally, the world will move towards unity and less pain, which a part of every individual secretly wishes for. We can do small feasible acts of goodness with compassion without worrying about the world becoming a bad place without this and that.

This mindset is what I was talking about. Just remember that no state is permanent.

To be frank, that's a gift rather than a curse. It is a state higher than normalcy and not lower. If you are afraid, stop meditation completely, you don't seem to require it anymore. How is your mind right now? Can you stay quiet and have a clean mind for ten minutes without doing anything? Or is your mind constantly being bombarded by thoughts higher than usual? Based on your descriptions, there is nothing alarming about it. But if it's the second case, surrender to it completely, and it will vanish on its own after some time.

They will be happy at that age, and it's fine, but the problem comes when you grow up, not feel as happy as you were earlier and start complaining to God

If you are scared, you can take rest from meditation and focus on mindfulness in your day to day life. I had similar psychotic+Spiritual episodes long ago for months after extreme meditation, but it vanished on its own after stopping it. I rarely meditate after that, in fact if you have got freedom from thoughts bombardment/ monkey mind, a few minutes of meditation everyday maybe more than enough and could be equal to hours of meditation sittings. You can also try shifting to loving kindness meditation for a while. When your fear is gone, you can come back to your ordinary practices.

And love yourself for acting like a human.

Human, of course! If you want to become God, you have to become independent of all thoughts. There are some who indeed are able to see his family and an unrelated one or an insect as the same, but still it's difficult for them to avoid feelings like guilt and other emotions as thoughts all the time. So, yes, you can momentarily become what we call a God. As a human, I believe it's not necessary to be impartial towards everything. But we all can strive to become God through practicing unconditional love and it's children such as compassion, gratitude, forgiveness etc. For example, you can save your daughter and still be compassionate towards the man whom you cannot save and yourself for not being able to give up attachments altogether and not act like a God.

Pc can do a lot of stuff that playstations can't do. That's why I believe people prefer pc to consoles. Also, you can play all the old games released right from the ancient days on pc , whereas I think you can't insert PS3 disks on a PS4. Still, play stations do have its own advantages like a few you have mentioned.

Coming to preference, the fact that she is very young, and she has more time to experience life compared to the homeless person gives an edge to saving your daughter even after removing your attachment to her. As Leo said, you have to make the question more difficult. Ironically, life can become meaningless when we leave the desire for survival entirely. Also, not only your attachment to her affects you, but also her attachment to you affects your life even spiritually.

The third eye pulsations are also a way of universe playing with you. Don't take it literally.

People with some sort of mental illness can start noticing patterns when there isn't one, which includes angel numbers as well. But when you stop noticing such things and didn't want the patterns to be seen, and still it repeats on enormous levels beyond the natural and usual frequency, it may be a way for the universe to tell you that things exists beyond your constructed logic.

What about not saving both? Saving one is also an animal instinct.

It's simply a way for the ego to be let known that something beyond itself exists that can break the logical box and rules we seem to be in. In my opinion, they have no particular meaning in itself. It may also be a sign to acknowledge your effort in seeking truth.

A higher awareness and a strong ego is a delicious combination for the universe to show its might.

Otherwise you wouldn't have atheists and life would be boring without them.

Many spiritual experiences indeed happen in the head, and follow all physical laws in addition to some Spiritual laws, atleast if you believe that the head exists. You can be tricked in infinite ways by the universe and on an absolute level, it can never be proved or disproved and it doesn't matter. What matters is how you transform because of these experiences. But the one exception to Spiritual experiences not happening with the head is the oneness or ego dissolution. Scientifically, it is observed to happen when brain functions come down, so it can be considered as something more real than the logical world. Our soul also believes it to be something closer to truth when the experience happens.

No, we need to know the dangers or the precautions before stepping into it, no matter if it is sollipism or meditation or air.

Learning about Spirituality from sources outside our mind is an important process in maturing as a spiritual person. While it is not necessary for those who seek awakening, it is important for those trying to understand it and everything else about the universe. It is better to not understand it all, if we don't have an open mind, as restricting ourselves to a certain group of beliefs or teachings of a particular guru is dangerous. When it comes to awakening as an experience, hinduism states that it is possible to obtain it through intellect alone, while the other ways are doing and being good willed, being devoted to any god through prayer or through meditation. In my experience, a combination of meditation towards breath or a god of your choice, intellectual work, being heart centric and having an open mind will provide the greatest development spiritually.

Meditation, yoga, mindfulness, being compassionate, grateful etc. are also parts of Spirituality. Such things can greatly affect the happiness and peacefulness of human beings. Enquiring about reality is just a part of it, which is most suited for the curious ones. For those already suffering and nothing else seems to help them out they are unable to take any positive actions, they turn towards Spirituality to find answers to why they are suffering. For such people, Spirituality helps them in a great way.

I have heard even meditation can give you sometimes a trip to mental hospital.

Thank God now I can sleep peacefully.

Now I am all curious how it became the second point.
