@softlyblossoming What's an 80/20 dig?

Struggling with stage blue discipline. Can't discipline myself to follow my schedule, focus on my goals consistently, procastination.

I mean, would it really be 'truth' if it meant staying in cave meditating 24/7? Isn't Truth supposed to be all encompassing? Because Truth by definition is all encompassing, it cannot be limited to any particular lifestyle. I mean I feel that the end goal in this humans life is to realize what's true, be completely satisfied, whole and blissed out cuz of that, then proceed to do whatever the hell you want to do.

TLDW; You cannot determine yourself as sane because you are the ultimate comparison and the ultimate authority(who uses his/her sanity to determine whether he/she is sane or not). This means the word sanity itself is empty. It is just what you say it is. When contemplating Sanity, you break into Insanity, Insanity with a capital I.

There seems to be more of the arrogant types because those are the loudest lol

Hatha Yog for those chakras work very well to get me the feel of those places in my body. It feels closed at first but the more you focus on this areas doing the asanas and the aspects they represent, the more it gets easier to focus on them in your everyday life without needing to do any asanas. Search up hath yoga asanas for each chakra.

Warm love: warm, cozy, spaciously compact, safe, secure, fun, dynamic, happy, feeling whole as in contracting to infinity Cold love: cold, spaciously vast, still, sad(?, i dont think so, but I used to call it sadness before), exposed, uncaring, exploration, quite, often confused for depression, physical emptiness, feeling whole as in expanding to infinity I am talking about these two as literal feeling in your chest. What I described above is what I feel when I feel these two types of love(relatively speaking). I call those both love because that honestly feels like the best word for it. Most people have this idea that love is this warm and cozy thing that gives you a sense of safety and security. But the opposite is just as true. I was investigating into suffering a while back and stumbled upon this feeling that I have felt many times. Turns out I loved this feeling, which I had confused with suffering. This cold love is sooooo peaceful and still. While I can say the same for warm love, it's more dynamic, while still insanely peaceful. Ime both of them manifest as my body being still and quite tho. The difference is internal, in the heart. Most fun part of this experiment so to speak is that you can mix these two and feel them both at the same time, which feels much much more complete and grounding than just feeling either one of those. Since one expands and another contracts to infinity, it ultimately leads you to the same thing.

I love..

@aetheroar Can I dm you to ask some questions? I don't want this post to become about masturbation.

@Mu_ Oh I pointed it out in the brackets. I want to see if masturbation has any effect on reaching embodiment such as the OP. Because I have noticed personally that less masturbation somehow boosts my spiritual practices. So just wanted some idea if masturbation is indeed a factor affecting embodiment or not. I'd guess not really but it's always good to know other's experiences.

Do you masturbate? How often? What's your gender? (Just wanting to relate if masturbating has any effect on arriving where you are now)

Movies, shows, anime, cartoons, songs, books, videos, documentaries, etc. Any suggestions? Not asking for 'feel good' suffering(although still welcome) if you know what I mean. Like legit insights and view into suffering. Could be either about suffering or a story that is suffering. One I'd suggest is Shoujou Tsubaki(anime movie). Examples of 'feel good suffering' would be like the iNSaNiTY song and Higurashi(anime) in my view.

Couldn't it be mostly just a product of the kind of lifestyle you lead? I'd say if you had a kid than that number would much higher

Props to the dog for reaching the next level of evolution Here's to millions of upcoming human lives working on integrating and then transcending the self she has just developed ?

First heard this song as a kid in a Doraemon Movie. Today I realized what this song was really about

This is biased towards vision. There are also other senses. If something has to be seen to be considered as 'existing' then why not the same with hearing etc.? One may say that then the object doesn't exist but only the very sensation of that sound that 'it produces' exists. Well what makes an object an object then? That sensation which you call sound is the same thing as that visual image of the object. They are both sensations made up of the same thing. Does anything exist behind you? Well that depends upon where 'you' begins. Well, 'You' or 'Me' isn't even real and therefore nothing is able to exist behind you, not a question of weather or not. If you are talking about 'behind' the physical head then consider this: What if we have some sort of energetic sense undiscovered by science that let's us scan an area in all directions, even behind the body. When including that sense as well, does the whole room exist when you enter it because you can sense it all or is it just your visual field?

i agree

I want to know more about this, will you dm me?

Nothing special about him yeah, but does it matter if he's truly enlightened or not? Think about it. It'd only matter if he was an authority to you, maybe your sole master that you follow. Like, your guru being enlightened or not only really matters if you are living physically with him or something and giving your life away so that he can enlighten you too. However, with Leo, and many other teachers online, all you do is listen what they have to say. You don't have to commit to anyone. It doesn't matter if they are enlightened or not, you just need to be conscious enough to know if you are growing or not by listening to them. It's about you really, not the 'guru' or the other 'disciples'.

drop all ideas and notions, drop that background voice of some guru talking about awakening while you try to invoke the same experience, be completely present and do this Question "I AM", alone and meditating. With the hunger for truth and impatience(which leads to doing the practice as intensely as you can), you could probably get it an hour(or atleast I did, for some it may take doing it everyday for some time, depends on how intense you can go). Though this 'getting it' will be very temporary, it's useful when you haven't understood what you are even once. Like a mystical experience. To make it permanent it'll take time. Also be aware, if you get it for the first time with that method, you'll likely end up experiencing some sort of ego death or warping of space in and around your head. Which is a great thing! But don't confuse it with everything, there'd still be much to learn!

So I discovered something while experimenting with breath and the physical heart. This technique seems to still the body really really well in under 10 mins if not 5. I am sure this is already a well known technique, but I am just discovering it for myself here. Alright so, first of all, where do you identify with? Usually it's the head. That's why it feels like the chest is down there. What I want you to do is identify with the heart, the physical one. Once you do this, you'll literally feel like YOU ARE some warm, gushy area with some sort of vibratory rythm. It'll feel like you are back in your mother's womb. You'll feel like you are inside the chest and that the physical heart is the center. Your head will feel like it's somewhere up there, etc. Now after you have shifted where you identify with, it should be 10 times easier to still the mind. So drop as much activity in the mind as you can and still it. Now focus on your breath, with each passing breath, go slower and slower and slower. Reach a point where you are taking around 1 breath every 30 seconds or more. While doing this, slow down your physical heart. You'll intuitively understand how to do this if you have correctly become your heart. At some point, it'll feel like the body has become so still that it is paralyzed and can't move or speak. So I have a feeling this could be pretty dangerous too considering we are tampering with the physical heart here. It's amazing what lot you can do with your body by just becoming the area you want to experiment with. Most people are stuck in their heads their whole life, literally!

You could be using this as confirmation that living in mountains is way better I mean It's not as insane as you'd think it is if you look at it through news, the world will always seem chaotic, that's just the filter news use

Yes, everyone is pzombie and so are you one. The only 'thing' with true consciousness would be everything at once(infinity)
