  1. What spiritual teacher... Find God! Sounds like only God can help there.
  2. Perhaps pray to God for help? I guess when shit hits the fan, that's when we find our faith in a saviour. Perhaps you've been in that place and perhaps it was God that took you out and will again and again.
  3. Interesting. I understand now. I know nothing is really other than us (like other people in a dream are just manifestations of our own mind/subconscious) so what do you think, is this some grand game God is playing with himself? Seems pretty elaborate.
  4. @Samra So there was an alien who went inside of you and sort of like possessed you? If I understood correctly. Was that alien only part of your imagination do you think or was it as real as I would say my grandmother is? That sounds creepy as hell. Do you think, if it is a real entity, that it has left your system? Sorry im a newbie in this area.
  5. @Ferdi Le The great Alan Watts once said (and I'm paraphrasing): We do not do meditation and the likes in order to achieve something, we do them because it is a groovy thing to do. Like dancing
  6. Thank you, I'll make sure to make a date with the park on those days.
  7. If you believe there is no self, that is a wrong belief that is used to untie consciousness from egoic identity. But is ultimately false. Consciousness IS and that is what the seeker seeks.
  8. I love star gazing, cloud gazing, moon gazing and Sun gazing. Those can trigger deeper experiences. ... One time after star gazing, I went home, closed my eyes, looked up with closed eyes and saw little light dots as if I am seeing a perfect night sky. I was like woah!
  9. Well, there is no seeker, once it is found. The self in fact IS found. It just doesn't have any objective qualities.
  10. I mean what I said. It is a story of accomplishing impossible feats. Like finding the seeker.
  11. Humans are famous for trying impossible things and succeeding! #BestEgosInUniverse
  12. Except awareness , that's why its so special and talked about in this spirituality thing
  13. For us it shouldn't make a difference. Are your dreams at night predetermined? Your actions in them? Isn't it more fun to just enjoy them and not analyse to oblivion ?
  14. It's not virtual or it would lag ? That's the number one reason I hate technology sometimes. I believe it's more likely to be the dreaming of God - pure eternal awareness.
  15. I have done self inquiry from the list you mention, but what supercharges my practice is listening to the psychedelic 5-Rupert-Spira-DMT on the nature of consciousness.
  16. Viking is confused, he needs a doing. It is a doing until the find part. You seek the changeless, you realise it is you experientially, the search is over. You cannot find the changeless on the object side, but it is there with every object. The knowing element without which no object of perception would be knowable. Being it is the only way to know it, it cannot be seen as an object, it cannot be smelled, it cannot be anything objective. It is quite magical to be that.
  17. It is like relaxing of the attention away from the objects and the attention SINKS into the vastness of The Heart. #ExoticTerms #JustDoIT It's not really a doing, it's the opposite, it is just being. Seek that which doesn't change and you shall find.
  18. That's good. In an attempt to make it even more obvious, you can try the following Focus on an object of perception, anything really. Whatsoever is happening in the moment - birds singing, thoughts, bodily sensations, etc... Now together with that object, there is `something` else present. While the object might change, there is one thing which never changes - the subject to which the object is appearing - you. Instead of your attention being stuck on the object of perception and on commentaries about the object of perception, can you turn your awareness in the opposite direction, back to the awareness that is aware of those perceptions? That is you... Do it when you are bored. It is like relaxing of the attention away from the objects and the attention SINKS into the vastness of The Heart. #ExoticTerms #JustDoIT
  19. If you ask yourself "Am I Aware" the answer is obviously yes. You seem to believe you need time (past) in order to know you are aware now? Is it not your experience now that you are aware? <-- This right here, between this question and your answer, you are aware of awareness. Awareness is not an object, so that's why your mind is confused. It wants to hold objects, but its that in which the finite mind is being held. It cannot know it. Only awareness can know awareness. Only you can know you are aware. Sink deeper into that, marinate in awareness. Love & peace <3
  20. No, you don't have to be certain other paradigms are false. The unique thing about consciousness is that you have a constant experience of it. That experience of being aware has not left you - ever (spoiler: cause it's you). We cannot be sure about things we are aware of, but we can at least speak with authority and be certain in that space-like awareness that knows experience. At least that is real. The rest can be a concoction in the mind of a 4-dimensional squirrel. I don't really and can't really know. What I can and do know is Consciousness. It's always available for study and you can't get any more real than that.
  21. I mean what is. The one and only present moment reality.
