  1. Trying to be a certain way for women is the least mysterious thing you could do
  2. 👽 so much of what I do is in extreme ways I like him for that too. I wouldn’t agree that much on the Europe thing, I think Leo is exceptional wherever he goes and will struggle to find likeminded anywhere. I don’t know if there’s a significant difference between Americans and Europeans in terms of development
  3. From having once spent a summer watching all of his videos I can tell he has a unique mind that is for sure more beautiful than average . Not saying the average mind is bad though. Not fully sure what he means as mind though, if he means his thoughts or something else
  4. 49: Non duality in everyday life I believe that the average human experiences a sort of non duality in their life when they for example enter a flow state. When they are so immersed in something for example playing a video game or working that they become selfless for a moment, forget themselves. Yes we all have a sense of self (unless enlightened) but I don’t think the average humans feels they exist every second, it’s more an on and off thing, stronger and weaker at times depending on activity. So in a sense we all have glimpses from time to time I believe. But enlightenment is when those selfless states become permanent.
  5. 48: Did 3 hour meditation yesterday. Took a little break after one hour because I felt tired and considered whether I should go to sleep instead, but then I regained energy and decided to continue my session. I managed for the first time to meditate for an hour without looking at the timer. In total I looked at the timer a little bit less than last time so I’m making progress. My goal with this meditation is to one day experience some kind of mystical experience. Enlightenment would be the ultimate goal though.
  6. 47: 3 hour meditation finished. Tonight I looked at the timer just so slightly less than list time so it’s a step in the right direction. What I like about meditation is that the subtle frustration of meditating takes over and you forget about all your problems.
  7. Ok. I’m still a bit conflicted regarding this.
  8. This is what I’m conflicted about. I don’t know really what the self is, if it’s real or not, illusory or not etc.
  9. OP said the self is illusion which I interpret as not real. But I’m with you there with your definition of enlightenment . It’s still mental for me though I have yet to actually “see” it
  10. So I’m mistaking that for something else than me? You’re saying it is me
  11. What am I mistaking for something other than me?
  12. That doesn’t sound too nice. I see your point. I don’t know how they do it here in Sweden though.
  13. Illusion meaning not real, doesn’t actually exist. I don’t know if it is, just asking you. OP says it is.
  14. I see your point. I don’t know which companies do it, and exactly which method. But I’ve heard that organic and grass fed means the circumstances for the animals are better. And in Sweden where I live there are certain regulations around how to kill the animals.
  15. Why do you think killing animals is wrong, if it’s done in a quick and basically painless way? Such as with certain organic grass fed animal products
  16. You’re strong for keeping yourself going through all of that. Great that it’s getting better for you and you’re able to help others with your story.
  17. My guess is that my suffering would end
  18. How can an illusion be so strong? Why is it so difficult to “see” the truth?
