meditating for 40 minutes non stop, even if it is a noisy meditation, greatly reduces the compulsion to seek stimulation at every moment. it is a matter of accustoming the mind. the phone does the opposite of meditation, it makes you addicted. It's not a profound matter, just mechanical

@Jannes It's not ridiculous at all. the ego exists for something. you have to understand its root, its mechanics, in a profound way, beyond the conceptual. if not the ego will always have power. for the ego to lose its poison, you have to perceive yourself as not separate. you have already tasted the freedom to deactivate the ego, this can give you the motivation to go deep within yourself, and clarify the enigma of the ego

@Jannes beautiful post, very well expressed. I think that what you experienced is the liberation of the ego, when you realize that you are perceiving reality through a lens that values, compares, judges. removing that lens is removing a sack of lead from your back. you are liberated, everything is perfect, and love flows in you. the problem is that the lens returns and the bag too, perhaps a little lighter but this, since the logic of the ego is irrefutable: here you are, there is everything else, therefore... you have to be at the height, furthermore, you are a temporary process, a resume that must be completed...this vision inevitably leads to a return to the ego. then, the only solution is to really see that there is no you and others. you are the others, but not in a thoughtful way, with empathy towards others. no, it's that literally, them and everything else, you're not you, you're the whole dream that seems to be unfolding, and you see it in real time all the time. and you can still go further, although that for me are just glimpses in psychedelics: you are the unlimited void in which everything exists, pure joy without limit. And according to Leo, you can go even deeper and understand how you are creating this dream and why

there is a lot of talk about the threat of having nuclear missiles on the border. What is the difference if they are launched from Germany, or from a submarine? if you start with atomic weapons, doesn't matter , game over

I think the only threat is to their pride, but I would say that for the Russians that is very important

You are right man, i have let myself be carried away by prejudices and by opinions elaborated in a day. Totally stupid an arrogant. Yesterday i didn't know who is zelenski, insulting him without knowing is stupid. Ashamed once more for my emphasis. I apologize

I'm not saying it's Ukraine's fault, if it seems that way I apologize to any Ukrainian who read this. I think I don't understand enough to give an opinion so emphatically believing I'm soooo smart. it's just stupid pub discussion. apologies and I return to the spirituality forum, politics is for those who are more interested

This is the president....i think that's how disasters happen

zelenski is a kind of retarded idiot who until two days ago was a comedy actor and made a program in which he appeared with two Uzis shooting to corrupt politicians. an incompetent narcissist who with his statements and actions has provoked this conflict. ukraine has been independent for 8 years and it seemed that russia was going to swallow its pride, but this clown wanted to play the little napoleon with incendiary statements and gestures that russia cannot tolerate without giving up all its pride. playing the game of the us, eager to sell weapons and look for an enemy to unite its population, now that the islamists don't even scare children. biden from the beginning used hostile rhetoric against putin, very interested in having an enemy, but that the blows are given to others as always. it is the problem of democracy, that circus clowns like trump and zelensky can come to power. It's time to pay for blindness and incompetence . if you only want to see your point of view, without nuances, without trying to understand the Russian point of view without demonizing it, I don't know why speak it

wonderful and exciting read man, almost like a psychedelic trip

@Ryan_047 there is a reality: russia exists and is what it is. I understand that you prefer it to be another way, that they tell the Germans who were behind the iron curtain or many others, but it is as it is, and the holy atomic bomb prevents total war, otherwise it would have happened long ago. You have to find a way to live with her, and that way is not humiliating her or showing hostility. for the simple reason that it has military force to bite, so i feel sorry for ukraine but i think that their leaders have acted rashly and stupidly, and now they have to take steps back

@Ryan_047 It is not even similar to the stage of the II ww with this. Russia is not a country with claims of imperialist expansion, regardless of this invasion. What I would do in today's circumstances: 1 stop the resistance today, exile Zelensky since he has proven unable to live with his neighbor, with his radically anti-Russian proposals such as joining NATO, recovering Crimea, etc. 2 total pressure on Russia, economic suffocation, to hold a referendum, by zones, with all the guarantees of legality, on annexation to Russia or independence. allow pro-Russian cities to be Russian. 3 to reach agreements on the neutrality of independent Ukraine, not to suggest further entry into NATO, and guarantee the Russian control of gas pipelines. not one death beyond this week It's not perfect but it's better than turning ukraine into aleppo

@Ryan_047 friend, you don't want to understand. I agree with all that. There is nothing hippy in me, what I am saying is: what is the benefit of proposing a total resistance mobilizing the entire population, for two or 3 years, to later end up capitulating and leaving a devastated country, without a single building standing?

@Ryan_047 agree that some violence is necessary to demonstrate the will to resist and the evil of the aggressor, but how far if you already know the result? better to be practical and leave the ego aside. but that guy wants to mobilize the entire population in arms, etc... they play with the lives of others for their pride, putin and zelenski . if there is a real reason, for example if your country is going to fall into the hands of the Taliban, you fight to the death, since it is better to die than slavery. but in this case, the Ukrainian on the street will not notice anything, except in his pride and his national feeling. nonsense, life is worth more

I'm not offended but I think the one who doesn't understand is you. If 7 armed guys walk into my house, the only reason I can think of to fight is to prove my manhood. maybe good for my self-image but I don't help my family at all, on the contrary

I am surprised that there is no voice in nato that says: zelensky, stop the resistance. Let the aggressor in and avoid the death of thousands, since he is going to do it the same way. then we will force him into democratic elections or he will be financially suffocated completely. Well, probably they will do that at the end, i hope soon to avoid suffering and destruction

there is only the present. the past and the future are in the present, in your mind, right now. it is temporality that causes the perception of a separate self, when perceiving time as something real, one sees oneself as a process, one perceives oneself as fragmented, in pieces. when you understand that the past and the future are in the now, because they cannot be anywhere else, it unifies you

Beautiful. Good trip

yes, putin is a demon, not like san obama who destroyed libya and sent it to a pre-medieval stage a little equanimity please

Russia only has one ace to prevent the thug from sodomizing her and depriving her of her identity to steal her: her military power (Russia is also a thug sodomizer btw). Russia has decided to say: bully, look, if you come, we are ready for anything here. who has more to lose? a risky move. the war would be over soon. who is so stupid to fight without victory options? and the precarious balance will remain balanced, and precarious

nato has shown to be capable of destroying and invading countries, libya and iraq, for energy interests. 8 years ago, russia has seen the begging of the expansion of nato on its borders, specifically in a historically russian country, with a large percentage of the pro-russian population. Russia is a country that depends on the export of its energy resources. Would you like to have the murderous thug and thief as a neighbor and married to your sister? it's hard to live with it. I condemn any invasion and violence, but here the only culprit is not Russia

the matter is much simpler. There is only one truth and that is unity. reality is one. the more you move away from the unit, that is, the more you fragment, the less happy. the closer you get to unity, the happier. if you are in a pure non-dual state, pure bliss. If you are in a fragmented state, you can be a great person, have great relationships, have the best job, the best sex, and be a millionaire, there will be little happiness in you.

Wrong, i spoke since having had some realizations about this and having tried to understand it, for better or worse. You can't say it like it is because It is not something that the mind can process, or at least mine. they are realizations with psychedelics or meditation, which are not translated in a linear way

From a relative perspective, yes, you are responsible. If you act "badly", that is, with selfishness, low consciousness, your life will become more egoic, you will feel further from God and you will suffer more. if you hit your finger with a hammer, you will suffer. from an absolute perspective, it doesn't matter. there is what it is and everything is the same. You wouldn't act right or wrong, in fact, you wouldn't act. for what? having cancer is the same as not having it, letting your child starve is the same as taking him to school. Suffering and pleasure are exactly the same. there is only now, and there is glory and perfection

That is the best explanation that i read until now. it is incomprehensible because the matter is. The reality is that I am the only who exist, and you are the only who exist
