  1. I’ll look into gurus. Thanks. im somewhat peaceful most of the time. It’s hard to accept suffering though. I don’t dwell on past, I would say I respond rather than react so I got those two down. It’s the embrace of the ugly aspects of life that is hard.
  2. The lower the iq the higher the bliss or?
  3. Yea I believe enlightenment is closer to the kind of neutrality I’m describing as opposed to a loud bliss (maybe in the beginning when it happens it’s so)
  4. I’m somewhat peaceful a lot of the time
  5. I make distinction between neutrality and bliss/happiness. The absence of suffering is no feeling at all, vs a feeling of bliss/happiness
  6. I’d be very content with simply neutrality. Maybe you could call that a type of bliss, but I still make a distinction between that neutrality and a more intense state of feeling something (happiness, ecstasy, bliss)
  7. @Salvijusis that a pancake and a drink?
  8. Yes. That I want. I'm also skeptical of that possibility. Nobody escapes suffering. thanks for the info I’ll see what I’ll implement
  9. I’ve been having a hard time lately and to be honest it’s very difficult for me to accept suffering.
  10. That’s what I’m thinking too. It’s damn near impossible I think. Makes me feel a little hopeless
  11. I agree. I think probability for enlightenment is extremely low. I see people do so much yet they’re still not enlightened. Do you have any practices you recommend?
  12. A truthful answer. It might be the most rare thing. So you’re saying you have to give it your all? I’m thinking that too.
  13. My answer is that it is very unlikely for me, if not impossible. But regardless I might still try
  14. Yes but forms can change. So the form of the body “dies” and turns into another form “dust” or whatever the body turns into when it dies . In the same way a flower dies and turns into soil. The form changes, one form dies (is transformed into another form)
  15. Existence isn’t bound to the body. The body appears within existence. Existence is eternal and in it can appear many forms such as the body, and the form of the body can die, but not existence, because it’s not anything in particular it’s everything and nothing
