    Philosophy can be a science when it's based on external data and measured. Philosophy is also an art. Art is creation. Humans create things and are the "Creator". We created philosophies, arts and sciences. We created this page. We are creating all the feelings, thoughts and emotions from typing these words and how we are perceiving them, and the Kermit, and the popcorn. Love one another and everything.

    Honestly, the fact that the Dali Lama is supposed to be celibate raises red flags for me.

    Does your body, thoughts, feelings and emotions run YOU? Work on removing the limits of your mind. Practice being in control of your sense perceptions. Question yourself and your own thoughts about everything ... Even other cultures, practices, traditions. Don't let your own knowledge get in the way of true wisdom. LOVE YOU

    Remember that traumas are experiences. All your experiences help build your character. YOU are your own parent now and in that you can comfort yourself, love yourself, make conscious choices for yourself. Everyday, spend quality time with your past self, your future self and most of all - your NOW self. We are all sending you good vibes and you will be just great!!  When you become aware that you are doing the vicious self talk thing, Choose to talk to yourself in a positive way. Its hard but if you fight the auto pilot mind and do the positive talk, you will win, you will reprogram your brain. Literally.  If you cant find big positive things just start small and like be grateful that you can see, that you have heat, that you have clean water, that you have nice shoes, that you can smile, like that....Keep up your great work!  You Got This   xoxoxoxox

    I want to know what everyones thoughts are on the direct path non-dual teachers such as Mooji, Rupert Spira, Eckhart Tolle etc... and all the other teachers who focus on self-inquiry

     

    is that the most effective way to get people to non-dual states of being by just saying focus on the present moment, we all share our own being. Do you think the audience really understands what they are communicating and is it effective or could a better approach be put in place? 

    I find Eckhart Tolle, Rupert Spira extremely simplifying such profound states of awareness and I am not sure if that is the most effective way of helping others reach that place. 

    They bring up to not search for enlightenment, there is no I, there is no seeker etc.. or well Rupert does anyway. 

    Don't get me wrong, they explain it well, really well. But make it sound so extremely simple & I am fairly certain it just goes in one ear and out the other for most people.

    What are peoples opinions on the most effective way to teach non-duality?

     

    I am pretty sure after an Eckhart Tolle seminar, everyone will just go back to living their ordinary egoic lives. 

    Great topic! It's all so nuanced. Yes some teachers teachings are shallow, but so are the brains of the students. Agree that most folks who take in Tolle (for ex.) will have a buzz for a few days maybe and just continue on as was. If the seed sprouts, the student will be back. If/when the student is ready they will search, maybe hit a round of all the teachers. The seed of seeking, want, desire for wisdom and truth has to grow. The student may be back to the teachers again and again and every time they will create more time in their fake world lives to take in more and level-up each time. I think its rare that someone fully Awakens at 100% in an instant (without plant medicine)? I think there must be some type of brain malfunction that physically and biologically shut down the thinking mind (like similar to a stroke or something like that?). I divert. Effectiveness of actually teaching non-duality - I think you have to be genuine, authentic, compassionate, big hearted in your teachings, and market the community vibe. Sadly, most people are completely miserable inside, unhappy in most areas because they are unfulfilled, consistently lacking, and eternally "waiting" for the next thing to bring them joy and satisfaction -- alas, which never ever arrives. They know nothing about introspection and self-inquiry. Perhaps they only know of "self-help" as an option, and that industry label is badly branded and tainted.

    @SunnyCyn Thank you, that's great stuff.

    Thank you @Squeekytoy! I didn't mention this but I think traveling helped shake my mind and opened it. I been to many many countries and I think the experiences, culture shocks, and just seeing the world and all the ancient stuff out there had a big part in really widening and cracking the mental boundaries ya know. There's nothing like just dropping down into a very different place that is different that what you have seen before, the people, the culture, weather,  the vibes!... its addicting too so you gotta watch that!  XOXO

    nobody is as asleep as orange, orange has materialism as its religion, that is why it is the most unhappy of all

    Agree from experience. Orange is an agonizing search for something unfillable. I recall the suffering I felt as I walked through my house one night (dead tired from working 24/7 for months on end under grueling unattainable corporate deadlines) and stillness and silence and my mind whispered "What now?"... I literally stopped in my tracks ... I repeated "' ... oh shit.. no really.. WHAT NOW??!!) What a crazy moment from that perspective!

    I've been somewhat of a hardass recently and I just to thank those of you who stick with me on this journey and take the work seriously.

    I know you have challenging lives and emotions that make this work difficult. I am proud of those of you who continue doing the work in the face of those obstacles. Your well-being does matter to me, despite the brusque tone I sometimes take.

    Thank you.

    I love working with you and seeing you grow stronger and comprehending reality ever deeper.

    Thank you. This self Suffered many and most years in early childhood with traumatizing beatings and molestations and everything that was shitty, by several parents/steps, family members, ran way cross country at 14 into many other various ugly traumatic chapters in L.A. I had to crawl and claw out of it. I never once seriously considered suicide - I knew there was a better life to be had and I was going to have that! Educating myself with some skills, lived it some shitty gang infested places, VERY driven and nothing could ever stop me!! Being a slender cute blonde, I got a job in a rat infested all male warehouse and studied hard every night on better things. Strived into a successful career. Along side all that I did inner work best I new how at the time. I got a little black notebook and started collecting meaningful life quotes. I busted ass big time in career chapters and retired super duper early, with several properties in a couple countries even. Then I was able to dive even deeper, deeper still, 24/7 for several years … I wanted the gold … the Truth! Studying every philosophy, psychology, ancient guru to modern theory and freakin beyond. Your work is a huge part of the journey and the gratefulness is beyond expansive!!!!

    The world experience can really suck and one human’s nightmare can be another human’s lazy easy day for sure and the mind is a total bitch! Be a hard ass, be a softy, be whatever it takes, keep answering all the questions, making the vids, sharing the experiences, direct the pointings, KEEP DOING THE GOOD WORK! 

    GRATITUDES & INFINITE LOVE
