opinions mean nothing, every Tom, Dick and Harry has an opinion, so what, means nothing about an one individual opinion which can change drastically tomorrow depending on mood swings... lets start a war on varying opinions, how stupid does it get!

lol, we are all judging okay, its a part of who we are, its just a matter of Awareness of it, Leo is judging, Sadhguru is judging and You and Me are judging, you say it like someone is and someone isn't. The important aspect is that the judgement doesn't affect one's awareness to the fact someone or something can change or transform, if Your judgement blinds You from seeing that process then its a problem, if it doesn't blind You then judgement is needed and okay... Self Development has nothing to do with talking about Yourself in a public forum all day everyday...all your doing is making up justifications to keep on doing it, ego luvs this and makes these things up, but it drags you further into Ego and farther away from Reality and Truth/Consciousness.. Plus your the one that made the initial statement in this thread about Sadhguru, lol, is that not a judgement on Your part by which You have no qualification to say or do?

Not judging, just look at below Your name, what does it say "a woman of few words", sorry to say but that is an oxymoron when one just goes to the self journals and see's how many journals You have going and how much is written there about Me, Myself and I... Talking and Obsessing about one's self is the first sign there is a major egoic problem, like I suggested to You, get out of Yourself and focus on others, be Devoid of Self, which means less talking or writing about one's self and maybe talking or writing about others..

Protesting the act of democracy doing its thing is Insanity.. The whole point of it is to let the people have their chance and say in how they want things to be done via electing individuals they believe will do what they want to be done, if one protest the result of this process then they are protesting democracy but they hail it as the highest way, so that is insanity!

This works mostly only if You've already established Your own Peace/Bliss within that is a natural everyday occurrence, if that is not already established then most will want specific outcomes and identify with it, and suffer it if things don't work out that way..

start another blog, talk about Yourself more, change Your picture again... at least Trump does it in private if he does it at all...

It's not false when You've been elected Twice to be President, its True Bravdo.. but You can't see that because Your Blinded by ME, Myself and I and Ideology!

Consecrations of many Temples, the Dylanalinga the most important, I know of no other Guru doing this nowadays.. The way he communicates, he tells the Truth of Reality in the simplest of terms that a child could understand, he can be ultra simple and ultra complex, I've seen both sides in person and on video's, so that too me means he knows it Intellectual on a wide scale of Knowing.. Being to a few of his live multi day events, I've observed him in person, he never yawns or takes bathroom breaks, or pauses in how he responds to random questions, he just says it clear as day and he's always alert and ready to answer.. He deals with situations as needed (at one event, on the 3rd day we found out Sadhguru was up all night due to a someone close to him in ill health from the India Ashram, he had to deal with some situations over the night, and still went thru the whole next days events and situations which were quite taxing for all of Us).. He Has as well an Energy to him that I have felt in person, hard to describe but it draws You In.. I was first intellectually curious about him back in 2010 via his videos on Utube, then I read is Autobiography, then I did his basic practice and found out the stuff works well, then the Inner Engineering course online and in person which blew me away.. I'm a systems guy via my many years of Martial arts training and teaching, so I know how systems work, his system of teaching and transmitting Spirituality is the most Effective I have come across, so via that he is very high level on the Spiritual Plane.. He's always Laughing and its a True Laugh!!!

Trump is the epitome of what the world thinks of America, the dream of America, he's outspoken, says what is on his mind, you don't have to guess what he is going to do or what he is thinking, because he is telling you it... He's full of Bravado, which is what America is about, their up front, aggressive, and forthright, they stand up for themselves, are overboard, and full boar on most everything, this is Trump. Others are scared of these types, so maybe that is why no Wars happen when he's in charge, just a guess, but hopefully it works, who needs more wars in the world!

What evidence that he isn't? Just look at the things he's done, for me its obvious, I studied the Man quite thoroughly, imo he's up there with Buddha, Jesus and the rest of them....

Not attacks, anyone that has access to the forum can see for themselves, the proof is out in the open, it makes no sense for someone with no credibility to make such judgements on someone that is not in their league.. I gets irritating when ppl do such things, they don't know what they are talking about to say it frankly, so at times someone has to say it up front when such acts are done...

I think this video was done back when Trump was 1st elected in 2016, since Sadhguru mentions being on the Tour for His Inner Engineering Book.. From what I understand of things, not an expert in of any sort in this area, no wars where started while Trump was in office, but they did start up when he left office, I wonder what that means, and maybe Sadhguru's predictions were correct!

That is just an idea in Your head...

Start another journal, talk about Yourself more, think about yourself more, go down the spiral of me, myself and I, how does it feel to never recover from this dilemma of just me, myself and I, does it work for You? Probably not, since you are still journaling and complaining and going thru the same cycles, and then You say someone that is the exact opposite of this is a certain way, what credibility to You have so anyone should put any faith into Your judgement, when You can't even get thru a day without self judgement when that is the most egoic thing one can do?? Sadhguru is for sure on top of the list or even on the list of the most Enlightened beings alive today or ever was, how do any of us who are not even close to this sort of realization, how can we judge... Even looking at the physical activity of the Man, we can't even judge on that simple survival level, since none of Us have done 0.5% of what he had done to help save the planet and the ppl on the planet on the physical level, never mind the Spiritual Level...

Verb means action, Karma is Action, residual result of all the Action performed, without Karma there is no Universe, as Humans we have the capability to be Conscious of this process of Karma, Samsara, and Vasanas (Samsara is referred to as a cycle because there is no beginning or end. A vasana gives rise to a desire (for an object), which impels an action (karma), which reinforces the vasana, which then, creates another desire, and so on, and so on.) and via that the Ability to Respond (which is Free Will in Action) comes into play and is available, that is one thing never mentioned in any of these discussion, which is why we are here to play this Free Will Game of Karma, Samsara, and Vasana, in a dual material world but in reality we are none of that fundamentally. Leela is referred to in India as the Game of Life, this is how we should look at how things are being played out, as a Game, Games can be played seriously but it is still a "Game" and it is "Played", this implies something we should all be Aware of... Doing it all Blissfully makes all the difference compared to doing it via Suffering it..

Aubrey, like others, are Hypocrites..I remember he wrote a book awhile back about how to live a Healthy Exuberant Life, then a year after the book was released he comes out saying how he is struggling in life and bla bla bla, its total BS, he and others just have huge Ego's and want some recognition that's it, and they all repeat on their podcasts, same guest, same topics, same BS..we need less of these types, they make the path to a Higher Potential Life more confusing and complex, they are like the dis information coming from other countries to ppl that live here to confuse us, I would stop all association with type like Aubrey and Blu and those types of content creators...

Again as with everything, there are layers and layers of levels to Existence, Meaning has its place, but when it comes to Realization of Reality as it Is, there is no Meaning, it is just there.. Meaning comes from things deep within us, if we had no meaning then we wouldn't care to survive and we all would not be here as our Species would have perished long long ago! So on this sort of level its engrained within Us, but if You go higher up the Potential scale for Humans, sooner or later You have to drop the Meaning stuff... and just see Life the way it is in all its Glory and Beauty, if You keep the Meaning stuff You won't see it or experience it..but if You go that route then forget family and relationships, job, goals and such things, they will drop off too so tread carefully!

There Used to be allot of "I am God" or "I am Jesus" posts where ppl proclaimed they are that and basically no one will understand them, but haven't seen too much of that lately.. As Carl said, lots of Solipsism talk, Non Duality talk, on the Spirituality forum, it seem some ppl go on there to consciously create drama to get attention, we've had a few that would constantly be starting new threads about this or that question, then they would freak out once inawhile will Large texts replies that came out of nowhere, then after like starting 50 threads they vanish.. What I find fascinating is for a Forum that is basically for those on the Enlightenment path, personal development or spiritually, the most looked at and replied threads are to do with War and Politics, too of the most Unconscious things in this world, that means something!!!

No, if Your truly on the Spiritual Path, then looking outside Yourself for signs and what's going to happen in the future is a no no.. The first basic on the Spiritual Path is that this life is Your Karma or Your Responsibility, not some planet or positions or cards on the table, no You are Responsible (Response Able) for everything that happens, and will happen.. This is first and foremost, but not the end game..Its just the baby steps, along with Living Now and Accepting Now as it is...master these 3 things then Your on Your way, reading tarot cards, astrology charts and so forth will lead You backwards...

I think ppl so lack in Intensity of Experience that they will take what they get, whether it is immense Suffering or Grand Bliss, both are Intense Experiences, so since they can't create or find the Bliss they can easily find ways to Suffer so they choose that to feel some sort of Intensity in Life, it makes their hearts beat faster, that is my experience with ppl in life...

I did it first..somewhere aloong the way lol... but yes Danger is real, as is Pain and its healthy, but Fear, any sort of fear like suffering is disempowering, not needed at all for a Human, but ppl identify with it, make it their anchor, I personally think this is their ego's talking..."see what I've been thru, see see..."

Whenever You Non Dual, Nothing to do, nothing is happening types get stumped by a response You all say the samething "This is just Your Opinion", well so is what You share, its just opinion, so that is what we do here, share opinions! This is not Spirituality, Truth or Reality in any sort of way, but if Your going to participate one needs to know what they are talking about... Try this experiment, stay in a state of Fear for a year straight, everyday Fear is all You feel, but before this take some bio marker tests, then at the end of that Year you will see everything is worse off, the opposite is true if Your Happy or Optimistic or any other Empowering Emotion, the markers will show improvement... I shared this on another thread, Deepak Chopra shared a report where a bunch of senior citizens that had health problems were put into an environment that was from the 1950's, when they were much younger, they were in that environment for a few weeks, at the end of it they de aged, so there is scientific evidence contrary to what You say, the whole question is can one be conscious of these things and control them,,, Check out Swami Rama, Scientist tested him, he controlled his heart rate, different temperatures on each sides of his hands, and other things, so it is possible...

Absolute is Supreme Intelligence, not calculation, survival/cunningness sort of Intelligence, but Grand Intelligence, the thing that makes Gravity, Atoms, millions of chemical reactions per second, Shit grows things, we eat what grows then shit it out, Trillions of things, non things happenings, non happenings, going on in a tiny moment, we cannot comprehend it, that is Supreme Intelligence on a small scale, but its not Expressed in Absolute realm, but Potential is there, so therefore we are an expression of that Potential, living it out daily moment by moment, So Absolute in a sense can Experience itself as a by product I would say.. Out of Oneness, Duality is born, because Duality is not separation but Oneness travelling in a Circle..

An ameba is a certain Potential, You/Humans are a certain Potential...This Earth is a certain Potential, other Earth like places or non Earth like places are a Potential... One believing in the God of the Bible is a certain Potential, Non Dualism is another.. Depression/Anxiety/Bitterness are certain Potentials, Happiness/Bliss/Ecstasy are others, the key to it all when dealing with Human Experience (we the most Capability in this area) if Your ability to exert Free Will, the Ability to Respond Consciously (You choose how to Experience), if You deny this then You will live by Accident (non Enlightenment), if You embrace it You live by Choice (Enlightenment)...
