  1. I thought we could choose a day or two to fast and share our journeys here because fasting is so difficult. But I can spend the whole day maybe chit-chatting about God and not thinking of food.
  2. @ZenAlex Any act done out of selfless love is meaningful to both the individual and the collective.
  3. @Davino Consciousness, the first-order reality, is an irreducible mystery.
  4. @PenguinPablo You can do all the chasing you want for the rest of your life if it brings you joy, positivity, and a sense of goodness towards other human beings. The author doesn't find it satisfying; each has their own journey.
  5. @Indianonymous That sounds like a very typical stage Orange problem - Pleasure chasing, one after the other. Try to change the environment around you; you will probably see a change in your behavior. As I see it, you have the intent, but perhaps the environment needs an update.
  6. @Lifelover88 Achievements also do not make one happy. We chase progress so much, but in the end, the happiness fades and you jump onto something else. Its very fleeting.
  7. @Leo Gura Awesome Leo. I am very happy that you exist
  8. @Breakingthewall Sadly, you can only help those who want to help themselves. The only other way is total acceptance. I can't imagine what you are going through, brother, Maybe ego death. Consider that you are already dead and live the rest of your life as a bonus. Much love.
  9. @Husseinisdoingfine Once you go deep into spirituality, you will perhaps understand the importance of surrendering. Surely they have not integrated other stages, but I wouldn't question Blue's faith.
  10. @Leo Gura I would challenge the Stage Orange view that one can be moral through secular human values, It makes one rather neutral and less sensitive than their immediate surroundings.
  11. @James123 Maybe its's God's way to bring us closer to God, but ultimately, God is not known. Try to find peace in the state of not-knowing. On the other hand, to continue living a sane life, perhaps be part of a community where you can share your story and inspire others. Or create something out of your suffering to help others. I can't imagine what you are going through, brother, Maybe ego death. Consider that you are already dead and live the rest of your life as a bonus. Much love.
  12. I stopped listening to what people have to say (not in fricking arrogant way) but before that, I found my purpose

  14. Sometimes, pursuing God can cause emotional harm to a lot of close family members. Please, how can I reduce that? @Leo Gura
  15. @James123 Thank you, I will try meditating after my prayers.
  16. I love Leo. He doesnt know how many lives he is changing.
  17. @Lyubov I am curious how far love can take a person and if there is any connection to spirituality in this journey.
  18. @Butters I am a quarter to half way to the video. I don't think the narrative of being dumb and an idiot applies to women. If they do so, they are immediately judged and worst outcasted.
  19. @Leo Gura I am pointing to comment by my dear friend @Nemra "Your way of life is literally threatening to them, Their way of life is threatening to mine. Could this situation produce ego-death and, in turn, enlightenment that there is no self?
  20. @Nemra Could this situation be a revelation of ego death, in turn leading to awakening? @Leo Gura
  21. come on @Leo Gura lets live, love and most importantly play
  22. @Leo Gura Can you please zoom into "contributing to society in a positive way". Followers of Islam consider spreading Islam to the world to be their greatest contribution. How do we know what contributes to society and is positive, according to whom? What about simply being, as existence provides enough for everyone?
