@Someone here what you do in your spare time is none of my business, but God is watching you, so be mindful.

@Someone here I don't necessarily agree with that. The situation you describe sounds very unholy.

@Someone here Look, take it from someone who has been searching for peace and joy his whole life. I literally couldn't see any beauty in life for many, many years. Since having faith, that has all changed. That's why I want to spread the good news.

@Someone here This is the piece of Scripture which changed everything for me: "Whosoever loses his life for my sake, the same shall find it" - Jesus Christ

Darkness, despair.....Hell, however you want to put it.

@Someone here It is possible that you could be saved, and when it happens you will know!

@Someone here Maybe you have intellectualised God and Truth and Love. When I see Leo posting videos about the technicalities of God and "explaining" what God is, I find it ridiculous. Don't you see that Leo is actually lost in his own mind. Freedom comes from worship and praise of OUR GOD IN HEAVEN. God is the most simple thing there is. That's why there is more Truth in Christianity. Christians are truly humble, they do not claim to be God, yet they worship Him.

@Someone here If your mind was open, Like Leo advocates, you would consider the possibility that religion is, in fact plausible. Plus, what you don't realise is that Leo has formed his own religion here on this website, although he won't want to admit that.

I have also been shedding tears for past few days listening to Christian songs and preachers. That is a sign the Holy Spirit is working in us.

Yes! You are right! Trust your instinct. And also trust in Jesus Christ!

@Salvijus Yes, since my conversion I have been spreading the good news. I will continue to do so. Thankyou for sharing your beautiful music.

@Salvijus The Spirit is strong in this one! Can you translate the words?

@Yimpa Thankyou! Good message in that song. God bless!

Being attached to wealth and money causes anxiety. "Needing" stuff like nice cars, holidays, plush homes, entertainment, etc leads to disappointment, because they are just enjoyable experiences that will end. Then you are left depressed when you don't have them. And there will always be an underlying anxiety which niggles at the back of your consciousness which says: "I may lose these things at any time. Then what?" Cultivating contentment through simplicity and simple pleasures is the way to go.

I'm not going to give you a long piece of advice. But something someone said when I was around your age helped. The beauty was in the simplicity of it: "Things will get better!" Sending a big hug your way.

Just know that you are one special human being. Your bravery and selflessness will be rewarded when your physical form is gone.

I've heard that suffering is imaginary. I've been accepting solipsism recently which is helping me so much. But I would like to understand this idea of suffering being an illusion, if anyone can explain.

I don't know if this will mean anything to anyone here, because i don't really know any of you, but I would like to apologise for my previous behaviour when I was drunk on a few messages. Personally I have been affected by the solipsism video which many others also seem to have been affected by. It seems that we can't come to a real conclusion on this. The way it affected me personally is that I stopped caring how I treat others to a certain extent, hence the drunk offensive messages. This is a danger when you start believing in solipsism. Even if solipsism is the case, it is much healthier to believe that other people DO exist. I started to look at people on this forum as just figments of my imagination, which gave me the right (in my twisted mind) to treat them however I wanted, because I can't see them, and I am just imagining them anyway, so what does it matter what I say? At the end of the day, it DOES matter how you treat other people, and I believe karma exists. That's why I'm reaching out to the people of this forum and apologising, and wishing everyone all the best. If you are reading this, tell me about your day, what are you up to today?

@Natasha Tori Maru E-hug for you too

Realise you are NOT God, you are just another human being. X

I know that most people won't even notice my threads or posts, But I've posted my experiences before. I watched Leo's video on enlightenment, and as I was watching the video, I suddenly saw that my hands were not my hands, they were just hands. Following on from that experience, I did hours of intense meditation and separated awareness from physical reality, resulting in me having convulsions of orgasmic (bodily) ecstasy, and repeating "oh my god" over and over. I wasn't under the influence of anything. And I'm beyond needing anyone to validate me or believe me.

I did though!!

@Aaron p The thing is, people have an idea of what an enlightened person should look like, or should act etc. The simple fact is that i experienced enlightenment. nothing else needs to be proven or demonstrated

The truth is

It says I am NOT God It says I am just a human being, no different from any other human being. It says that you don't have to believe in non-duality. Nothing relates to the self, we are all separate entities. This will relieve you from your psychosis.
