  1. One could perhaps listen to non dual talkers and see if it ever “rings a bell” and resonates. I wouldn’t follow one guru strictly.
  2. What I’m shooting for is dissolution of the self, if that’s possible. Whatever that entails: equanimity or whatever, “I’m” in for it
  3. What do you mean “to make it non localized” ? thanks for sharing the info . I’ll see what I look into
  4. Cool thanks for sharing. Im inspired by people like that young woman you mentioned who keep living despite horrible conditions. I’ve been having a rough time lately so it’s good to hear such examples. I tend to listen to myself mostly, but sometimes I like to ask others questions.
  5. 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.
  6. The lower the iq the higher the bliss or?
  7. 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)
  8. I’m somewhat peaceful a lot of the time
  9. I make distinction between neutrality and bliss/happiness. The absence of suffering is no feeling at all, vs a feeling of bliss/happiness
  10. 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)
  11. 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
  12. I’ve been having a hard time lately and to be honest it’s very difficult for me to accept suffering.
  13. That’s what I’m thinking too. It’s damn near impossible I think. Makes me feel a little hopeless
  14. 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?
  15. 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.
