Its all about Balance, think too much about what is going on in the world and it will depress You for sure, don't think about it and that will be depressing because the experience of loneliness, being alone is just like depression they say, it like its own mental health problem, so first create what You want to be in the world within Yourself, get rid of the "What about Me" syndrome, which is basically living above the Survival level of Perception and Awareness. The sign if a true Devotee is when they are not concerned about what they get out of something, they don't extract anymore, they just completely share with others, this is a good way to be in the world, right now its the opposite, everyone is extracting from everyone and everything around them, Vampires of a sort, and its draining energetically and pathetic to see...

You think the medical profession is saving lives? It may be in emergency situations, but why are the emergencies happening? Accidents, stupid events being put on by stupid ppl, too much chaos because everyone has a plan and wants to execute it in a place where millions and millions of ppl have their own plans and want to execute it as well, there is where it all happens... If your alone and know the reality as it is, very content and peaceful you'll be at peace with death and such if accidents do happen...

LoL just listen to Yourselves, all of You that buy into this stuff, its nonsense "True but Not True", this is nonsense, your all just going to end up in a loop of cyclical thinking hopelessly caught up in it, wasted life sorry to say...

I think they have done research that for "Survival" level of living we are very good within Tribes of about 500 ppl, I heard/read something about that, but in today's world of mega cities, millions of ppl living in tight spaces (I hear here in Toronto there are certain culture groups that join in and rent a spot and 10+ppl live in it, that is the only way they can afford it), is not so healthy, for sure my observations and experience tell me this, it creates chaos and suffering overall, nothing works right in those places, but in small groups on survival level experience its fine... For overall potential, yes we can live alone and be perfectly fine, as all Experience happens within us, you can create whatever You want to experience at will, under your control, it would be a bit harder to find Your own food, or grow it, and build Your own housing and such, but many have done this and its been done over the generations and it worked out fine... We are too spoiled today, ppl think loosing Uber or Wifi is a absolute disaster when it means very little in the overall scheme of things!!

Blissful for sure, but Bliss is not the goal per say, its the foundation, with Bliss as a natural state of occurrence, not due to a certain situation being in place in your Life, then you will go full speed ahead on everything Your Involved with, when Bliss is not the natural state, then Your looking to extract from outside, and other, and Fear will eventually rule fundamentally, all issues of Security (What about Me) come from this state of unconscious Fear, as you are just a tiny speck, anything can happen to You, and if it does it will be forgotten in a day or two, so most of the ppl live in this sort of state, or an up and down yo yo existence, both of which do not Empower You in any way, but Bliss does, when it is in place then Potential and Possibility open up for You in many ways!

I would say the heart represents Emotion, the ability to Feel and Experience that is not Intellectual/Mind based on Survival and Calculation, sorry if I am misplaced about this in regards to what You mean by "Heart", but that is how I interpret it...

Just sharing this, since I'm involved with Isha, saw this podcast of someone that is long time volunteer with Isha, and has been with Sadhguru many times, used psycedelics many times, and he recounts his journey on the path, he is humble, says many times he doesn't know what it means to be Enlightened, or what Life is all about, but has some struggles now and then and some high times too, its just an interesting take on how it is going for him, thought to share here... Two part series... part 2

I don't know why I always get sucked into these convo's, but when I see stupid stuff like this I just can't sit quietly by lol... General definition of Solipsism is only You exist, so your whole sentence here makes no sense, if solipsism is true what everything and everyone are you talking about??? This is just stupidity on a high scale.. You have a Body and Mind, that is much more capable than Your normally using it, which is mostly for survival, but in higher up stages You can experience everything as You, but You misinterpret this as "Only I exist", the communication of it is wrong in that manner, You can experience everything as You, but you are not the only thing in existence...

I can agree with this, we need both I guess on this world, the philosopher and mystic, both are here because it is meant to be that way... I just don't think Osho was a liar or anything like that, he just didn't pay enough attention when his organization was formed and being run by the ppl that ran it, it lead to allot of crazy stuff that may degrade his brand and such, whereas Sadhguru is hands on with it and monitors it, you never really hear anything bad about Isha other than the haters that are always there because of jealousy or some other craziness within them, when You want to do big things in this world you will always have haters, that means you doing it right!

Everyone around here talks about Infinity and Absolute, that's fine but what about Your everyday life and experience, is that not worth something just as important as Infinity and Absolute? If Your down in the dumps, anxious, Depressed, Bitter, what does that mean, is it empowering or not? Osho on this issue...

I think they are too, many seem to think Sadhguru is a copy cat of Osho, this is not true imo, if You research enough there are huge differences, but their logic is basically the same, but this logic is only used via the communication to the society they are in during their times of being active, its only to once again create Curiosity.. Sadhguru is much more Yogic based and Scientific in his methods that he shares, they are powerful process and methods, very specific in design and usage, its basically do this and this will be the effect, Osho is not like this from my research, he has methods but not as specific as Sadhgurus, plus Sadhguru does consecration of temples and other things outside of the sharing of methods, he himself is like a Linga or Energy source, it balances out the Karma of the world in many ways, having ppl like him alive and walking around on the Earth.. here on this instagram page, Sadhguru describes how it works in Yoga, the Yoga is the Science, the Kriya is the Technology, the Guru makes the technology which is based on the Science of Yoga, there is a difference, this was news to me up until recently.. The Guru specifies the Technology or method to the ppl that are going to be using it in that day and age, its not all the same!! https://www.instagram.com/p/C-ZKSFRIO3s/?img_index=1

The Methods do not make You anything, they just make it Easier to be Aware of that is all. We are all already Enlightened, we are just not Aware of it, methods/techniques make Awareness possible, by doing many many things, via causing Ease in life, Energies become more Intense and Alive, Your more Now focused rather than Mind fixated and pas/future orientated, words cannot describe it all, but without no Methods then no one is going anywhere on a permanent basis.. Talking about it like what it being done around here is akin to walking around in circles all day thinking Your going somewhere...Ppl Like Osho and Sadhguru just inspire You to go in the direction, they share tibbits of Truth on the Intellectual level, it makes us curious, that curiosity leads us to ways to make our Potential arise within Us, that is all..

He's probably one of the most Effective Speakers on Spirituality there ever was, he was very unique for sure in how he presented things and how he went about it, You can always tell if someone is special or not by what happens after they die, if ppl are still talking about them years and years later then they did something with their lives for sure!

@LifeEnjoyer I'm not a psychedelic user, other than marijuana but I don't use that regularly either, but have tried it many times before, I would like to experiment with psychedelics in the future at the right time. You are like all of Us, we want to have a Grander Experience in our Lives and more consistently, as Humans we have a Strong Desire trait, meaning we have a built in motivation system within Us that makes us want to be more than what we are right now, the thing is we want to do this in a positive way, something that we can build upon so that we can find out what our True Potential is, its the same for everyone, our potential is unlimited via our ability to Experience Life within Ourselves... My Advice is to do what You said You want to do, stop taking the psychedelics, you will become addicted to them and chase the experience of what they provide if You don't. Get Healthy, live a Healthy Life, find a good Spiritual practice that works on all levels of what it means to be Human, the Body, Mind, Emotional and Energy aspects of what You are, Accept things as they are, Live more in the present Moment, these two things will reduce the Stress Response in your system, this alone is a life changer, if no Stress is experienced then Peace and Ease will come into Your Life, via that things improve and Potentials start arising.. You want to get to a point where Your Baseline Awareness/Consciousness is solid and unbreakable so that You are Free from suffering of any sort, this empowers You greatly and allows Free Will to come into Your Life, from that You can go in any direction You want to go!

Your talking to a bunch of Solipsist, in their minds and experience they are already alone, we are just made up things lol.. Null and Void question for most around here.. For me, I'm not of those types, for sure it is possible to be Happy and Alone, Happiness is about You not any "Other" we just use "Other" as the spark, but if one masters themselves they can be Happy in Hell if they want too, so being Alone and Happy is for sure a Possibility, but I'm not quite there yet, I l like ppl generally but not too many of them on small spaces like here in Toronto, too many ppl in a city not designed for it, it causes chaos and suffering, so less ppl and more space:)

Possibility is why we are here, its another word for Spirituality, and is the Ultimate Reason for WHY!. Everything You want is about Possibility. It is a concept when we are doing what we are doing here, everything here on this forum and in most ppls minds are just Concepts, which translate as Thoughts and Ideas and Dreams/Hopes combined together to make up a so called Life of sorts, but when ppl are dying they ask what it was all about! Its all about wanting More, You have this thing inside You called Desire, its built into everything living, but with Humans it is very intense and complex, Desire makes You Grow, Grow in all sorts of Ways, but Growth means not standing still, wanting to be more than what You are right now, advancing, progressing, bla bla bla, within all of that is what Possibility means... If Your having a bad day, feel like crap, then hear a song that changes that mood so your feeling better, that is Possibility coming forth in Your Awareness within You, it was always there but hearing the song was needed as a spark to ignite it to come forth in Your Awareness, just know that this Possibility is always available to You at all times, what is needed is the ability to make the Choice, this comes with Free Will and high levels of Awareness of Reality, think of Awareness as another form of Intelligence, right now most ppl are using only their Intellectual Intelligence to live another day better, Awareness Intelligence brings forth a new way to Live and explores more Possibility for You to Access!

I found him very helpful, for sure he had a high level of Consciousness and Awareness of Reality, I ignored the calibration stuff, didn't read his books, but watched allot of his lectures, downloaded them infact, he makes allot of practical sense, but he looked like shit lol, very old look but otherwise I would recommend him to anyone interested in spirituality..

How do You discover Reality if Your Not Living in the NOW?? Our Minds are never in the Now, Mind is always Past/Memory and Future/Imagination Orientated, so since ppl are super Identified with their Mind/Intellect, they will never Realize Life/Reality and where it is... Eckhart was my first real Spiritual Teacher, I read both his books, Power of Now and New Earth, they really opened my eyes up to a different way to approach things, just realizing Your Ego and how it all works is Transformative... Reality will never be completely Understood, as what is the tool used to Understand something? For sure as Humans we can Experience Reality but too understand it is just leading one further away and more into their Minds and Intellect.. Just think of it this way, a Woman can explain to death what it is like to have a Baby, but a Man will never really Understand it as a Man can never have a Baby for himself (go thru pregnancy, labor and give birth) but on an intellectual level he can, but just not Experientially, so which is more important, Intellect or Experience??

All is not fine, at least not in the Human World, the other aspects of the World and Universe are just fine, even Great, but the Human world is where its most fucked up, because we have Free Will and Choice and Endless Potential but very few strive for it, so therefore they stay stuck in survival mode, Me Mode, Ego Mode, which is why there is so much suffering, to put it simple its a huge lack of Consciousness/Awareness, if that was in place the Human World would be drastically different and those things would not happen,,

Yes there is, You see pretty well everyone cannot Live Infinity while here on Earth and Embodied, most can only Touch Infinity, so since that is Fact, then You still have to deal with this Body and Mind You have with all its built in software/karma attached to it... Do You still Eat, Shit, Work, have Pain, Laugh, Sleep, Wake up, etc etc??? You still have to deal with all of this and everything outside Yourself, don't let anyone tell You otherwise... So You do have to get out of something, and be Liberated, because You've only Touched the Infinite, and are not in it...no one here is, only a few have actually gone there and came back or are still on Earth..

Simple to Answer, and has been answered this way a million times.. God/Absolute/Grand Intelligence/Brahma cannot Experience itself, it has to create Form to Experience itself, but with Humans we have within Us Free Will, Choice, Determination, with that we can decide how to Experience Life here, Suffering way doesn't allow Potential to come forth, Bliss Way does, so we have to choose first then explore the limits if their is any of this Life we all Have. Only Ppl that are Suffering ask Why Life, Why God Why everything, if You were Blissed Out You wouldn't ask half as much!

I guess I'm a Disciple for sure, have to change that! Knowledge is Burdensome! https://www.instagram.com/p/C-UCY1YSS1c/

I tend to lean on the side of things are getting worse, just looking at the city where I live (Toronto) and the shit that is just going on here, things are getting worse, too many ppl, not enough places to live, crime is going up and getting more violent and severe, its too expensive here, and just the stupid shit ppl keep on doing in everyday activities that makes it that much harder to do anything worth while, and that's just here... I can't believe it when ppl like Jordan Peterson say we need more ppl on the planet, he's nuts to think that being the way ppl are today, if they were more conscious then yes for sure, but not the way ppl are, their addicted to everything in their lives, phones, social media, hype, looking for life outside of themselves in a million ways, things are getting worse and that will continue until some sort of Catastrophy happens!

Pranmaya Kosha, or Bliss Body, if its non physical, then its non manifested, but from another sort of realm I would guess.. This is the problem, we cannot discuss things of this nature, once something goes from physical to non physical, no language can really describe it, so that one reading or listening to the words knows, one has to experience it for themselves, then say nothing about it, because too much has already been said..
