@Barna Visit a black hole. A black hole's event horizon first breaks down all matter (ego). Than once deep inside the black hole all that exists is infinity, the singularity (God). A place of absolute calm. A white hole if you will. I'm kind of stretching the imagination with the black hole. But at the same time the similarities are remarkable when you think about it. Could 5Meo open sort of a black hole in consciousness that is the gateway to the infinite singularity?

@BeginnerActualizer Well on that note: You never seen karate Kid- wax on, wax off? There is a purpose in the master's teaching even if you don't see it at first.

@Ramu Same here. The forum was in the void.

@Ramu Nice work, Stay centered even if others are projecting a bad day. See it as an opportunity to practice your practice. You mentioned the "alien thread" Ra? Yea, I gotta back off that too after a while. I was listening to the audio book on youtube. A bit much detail about spacecraft, ect. but the overall message of love/Light/Light/Love is beautiful. Here is a summery of the basic message if you haven't seen it yet. Just to mention something I thought was interesting. He talks about the Law of Free Will". We even choose when to incarnate so that we can work on ourselves and move on to the next higher density.

Profoundness

The universe isn't behaving in a manner that I think it should. That's the good news.

@Barna I wanna experience what Lenny is.

No, you are the body and mind wanting to become the field nothingness. That's the difference. Start by not wanting to read your own mind.

@Nahm Like "Happy Hour" after work.

If you have a significant other that doesn't quite share the path to enlightenment, This would probably be a bad thing to put in the Valentines card. Roses are Red Violets are Blue Stop getting mad when I say there's no you.

@pluto Sounds like you both tapped into the same there. A universal field of truth maybe? I know what your talking about. It's just not the words that where being conveyed at the moment but something universal that was happing that just felt so true and familiar. Something just "clicked" you may say as if everything came into alignment. It has happened to me on occasion with certain people. Mostly with my wife though. She was a calculus teacher and we would discus The Golden Ratio or something like that and we would both connect (her through higher math) and me through studying spirituality into a realm that was a bit extended from the physical. So I know exactly what your talking about. Something in us both realized this when we first meet that there was going to be more to come. It was undeniable. Once we shared that extended space, we could almost hear each others thoughts without talking. It was just a knowing as if it is you.

@Green Warrior Have you read The Book of One yet? I'm reading it now. It funny how the message is perfectly familiar but I don't believe I've actually read the book before. Maybe you would find it as familiar knowledge too. The main message I got so far is Our existence as mind and body is, for the most part, a distortion. A distortion of Love and light. Infinite Love and Light as One. Tune in to that refined love and light frequency and everything becomes crystal clear according to The Book of One. Just wanted to share that. It has great healing properties.

@Green Warrior I've been meditating for quite a long time now and never experienced anything even close to kundalini. I know all living creatures have a nervous system, but until I personally experience specific Kundalini energy actually moving from one location to another I'm a none believer. Sorry, I'm not trying to discount anyone who does believe. It's just that it's not in my direct experience. Is it possible that your just nervous about something and imagining the rest or talking yourself into more than is really there? Maybe you have stirred up something latent in your sub-conscious that needs to come to the surface. Or, is there anything else weighing heavy on your mind right now that could be causing stress that you may need to let go of?

If you must praise enlightenment, praise it in others only.

@jseBrinx takes the driver's seat. What a natural for a shared laugh amongst passers by.

@abrakamowse Jiva is the source, Maya is the degradation of light. Misinterpreted. Good stuff!

@FirstglimpseOMG You embraced yourself. It's all you brother. Every bit of it.

@brovakhiin I've done middle of night meditations before. 1to 2 hrs. They can get pretty intense. You'll be tripping your ass off for sure with 8 hrs. It would be interesting though. Lots of lucid dreaming. in and out of various states of awareness. The last time I did it I was in a semi conscious state of awareness at one point and than I suddenly became fully aware that there was a void staring me in the face. Seriously, it was like a black hole in consciousness. That woke me up! So yea, there's lots to explore there.

This looks interesting. Thought I'd share it. What is sleep? By its very nature consciousness is nameless, formless and timeless. Mental patterns, which are nothing but our automated response mechanisms to situations, keep pulling at the nervous system, creating the world of name, form and time. This is the world as it is experienced by all. The intelligent innate consciousness in everyone always wants to get back to this original state where there is neither name, nor form, nor the experience of time. When one falls asleep, the consciousness floods the body and the nervous system, it packs up all the patterns, almost like packing up a tent. This is what is the experience of deep and dreamless sleep. In the sleep state, however, the patterns do not die. They just remain in their seed state. When the effect of patterns and consciousness on the body is evenly balanced, one has the right experience of the world, dreams and sleep. If the consciousness becomes less, and the effect of patterns is more then natural, sleep disorders are the result. Too much of attachment to what is seen or heard, which is nothing but the effect of patterns, is responsible for insomnia and other sleep disorders. If the effect of consciousness is more on the nervous system as compared to the patterns, that is what leads to the meditative state and super-consciousness. Increased consciousness during the day will naturally lead to awareness in the dream state, and then to awareness during the deep sleep state. When one becomes aware in all the three states – waking, dream and sleep, it is called turiya, the fourth state. Finally, when the effect of consciousness is too much on the nervous system, all the patterns get destroyed permanently. This gives the direct experience of enlightenment. So it is very important to flood consciousness into every action during the day, and sleep in the night. This technique is a direct method to bring awareness into the deep sleep state. It needs to be practiced at night in a darkened room, for one full night. The unique thing about this meditation is that it is sufficient to do it just once to heal all sleep related problems. Instructions Sit in a comfortable posture. You can sit cross-legged on the floor or in a chair. Sit in an upright posture with the head, neck and spine in a straight line. You can support the lower back, but do not allow the head or upper back to rest against any surface, otherwise there will be a likelihood of falling asleep. For this reason it is better not to sit on the bed while doing this meditation. Close your eyes. You can also tie a cloth around the eyes. This will give a deeper experience of darkness, and avoid the temptation to open the eyes. Now meditate deeply on darkness. Darkness is the nature of deep sleep. So meditate on darkness. Visualize that you are inhaling and exhaling darkness. Visualize darkness flooding you and everything around you. Visualize it entering into each and every cell of your body, until all that exists is darkness. Repeat the word darkness mentally like chanting a mantra. If your mind starts wandering, bring it back to the experience of darkness. When this meditation is done successfully for one full night, one will have the experience of conscious sleep and it will completely heal disorders like insomnia or chronic fatigue. There will be no tiredness from meditating all night, in fact one will feel fresh, alive and full of energy. However, the benefits do not stop with just better sleep and health. The process given here can be a direct way to experience enlightenment itself. Adapted from the teachings from Paramahamsa Nithyananda
