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.

Do you want to throw the baby out with the bathwater? Thought aka logic is very useful, and often dismissed by spiritual types

I just want to point out that living like an animal and spirituality are not mutually exclusive

Everywhere he went. Why was this? Because he was genuine, and spoke the Truth. This is why "i" have been rejected everywhere I go, including here.

Don't laugh at me. That's not nice.

That's true. I just want to go home.

If everyone woke up from this dream, there would be no dream. We're all attached to technology, forgetting how life was before we entered the matrix. I know I'm in the matrix, but do you?

It's crazy how you can't just tell sum1 to fuck off on a forum these days without getting banned. Like, when did normal human emotions suddenly become something that has to be banned

@Hojo now we're talking

You are spiritually constipated

@Hojo you are still not speaking from the Spirit. This is your problem.

The Spirit teaches more than hollow words. Learn to speak from the Spirit. It is the Only Truth.

I've told you before. You don't make sense, because you don't speak Truth. In other words, the Spirit is not with you.

If I was to go meta, would I see things objectively, and witness an isolated schizophrenic alcoholic having a breakdown? But if I have that awareness, then which is the case? Am I the schizophrenic alcoholic, Or am I Jesus?
