tell us more and maybe it will be useful for some open-minded people here

I totally agree It's alright to feel "negative emotions" sometime, all I want is to live happy most of my time and being happy 90% of the time is possible

True, cult wasn't the good word... All I feel is that Leo is maybe deluded and I can't attach importance to his teachings like I did before, I feel like something doesn't click but can't know what.

Does karma exist ?

What would everybody would pursuing enlightenment ? There A LOT of people who don't have a clue about spiritual teaching or meditation and they live happy 90% of time. And there's people who were pursuing enlightenment and became insane, depressed or suicidal. So it seems obvious why

Thank you <3

What would happens if I keep all my attention on my breath, every time I think about it ? I mean I go throught my day doing my things but I keep my attention on my breath and nothing else. And when I notice thoughts, I redirect my attention to the breath. I believe I will be more conscious if I do that but is there better techniques than "vipassana" ? Do you guys do this everyday and how hard is it, what changes did you notice ?

What are / is the best practice to increase my level of love everyday ? I don't feel love very often, I just feel something like "wow it's beautiful, magical i'm lucky to be here experiencing this" I call this moment of presence, I don't know how to label it. It happens 2 to 4 times a week... The only moment I've felt love, was with my first "mystical experience" three years ago (was lasting 2 seconds out of nowhere during 10 minutes of meditation) but the second one was deeper and I was crying of joy for more than 1 hour, I could'nt believe that I can be so much loved, It was so overwhelming. and of course my first girlfriend, I was deeply in love during the first year of our relationship.

Do you have a good video on meditation metta to share ? I only know vipassana, I do it sometimes

I feel better listening to Nat King Cole songs and spending time in my garden watching the sky and the trees above me, I feel like even if everything is just a dream, it's too beautiful, it's perfect that we can create everything and see the beauty. Just the fact that we can experience this is pure bliss, it's magical I think that with this experience "yesterday", I've understand the importance of not thinking too much, the lesser I think, the lesser I identificate to "me", better "life" is. Now throught almost all the day, I try to be conscious when I'm thinking for no reason and I redirect my attention to being as much as I can, I want to experience life this way.

I know that all my reality is just beliefs, like a dream, I am conceiving everything. If I stop thinking, "I" die. But "I" doesn't want to die and leave everything he created because "I" is afraid to have no where to go. So I'm here stuck in the dream (because I decided to maintain the belief of "me" Gabriel) and I'm afraid to become mad I don't know what to do. I don't know what's happening, everything is me, it's happening now forever and it's creating identities, memories, good, bad, words... how to stop it ?

@Natasha Thank you

Why are we imaginating ourselves over again and again ? we're creating suffering by attaching an idea or identity to "something"

@Natasha Yes but you right now you are imaginating that you are something, an identity. Because without that you couldn't reply, you wouldn't be yourself anymore

@Inliytened1 I can't tell if I had a deep awakening or not... I just discovered that I'm dreaming, I'm thinking my reality, "alive" or "dead" doesn't exist there is nothing but me thinking and "me" is not real, it is the belief I hold to reply to you right now..

@ivankiss I just don't know what to do

@freejoy is there a video or something on this ? I'm interested

I don't believe in karma. There is nothing good or bad so why would I have to pay in another life if I take drugs to have spiritual experiences ?

Thank you

I finally understood the meaning of this song Your dream world is a very scary place Your dream world is a very scary place Your dream world is a very scary place To be trapped Your dream world is a very scary place Your dream world is a very scary place Your dream world is a very scary place To be trapped inside To be trapped inside To be trapped inside All your life Shine in time Shine in time Shine in time Until you find You're closer You're closer To the truth Within you Within you Within you Is the truth That your dream world is a very scary place That your dream world is a very scary place That your dream world is a very scary place To be trapped inside To be trapped inside To be trapped inside All your life You're closer You're closer You're closer To the truth Within you Within you Within you Is the truth

Here's a topic to express your love I'll begin; I love you so much you can't imagine you are perfect as you are

If I tell myself 50 times day "I am happy" will I feel more happier within days of affirmations ?

Hi, yesterday I was with a friend, she knews nothing about spirituality etc... we watched a movie "the invention of lying" good movie . After the movie, she was lying on me, head on my knees. I putted my hand on her forehead and I was in a pure moment of presence and I knew I sended "energy" to her. One moment I got so deep that I saw a white light, felt more purity, more love but I didn't wanted to go deeper because somehow I felt/knew that I would never come back to myself, my false identity that I experience now. My friend said how do you do that ? Because she felt like a "force" that was pushing her thoughts away and she felt something really "weird" to use their words. Do you guys know what would happens if I was going deeper ? And do some of you did something similiar (transfer of energy) I don't know how to call this, it was my first time doing this on someone
