Lately i've started experiencing a calmer mind. In my particular case, ive been struggling with stopping smoking, as whenever the thought pops up i feel like i want to get some - and usually go for it if i identify with the thought. But i am beginning to reep some benefits from meditation, and i am finding myself being able to actually not think about anything if it is not in my immediate perception. So i can close my eyes and my mind settles into nothing slowly but surely. This helps me with annoying "should have" thoughts and anything really that bothers my inner peace. Now the problem is that my peace is still conditional, because i require to tune out everything to get it. I realise that an enlightened being doesnt have a problem with mind, but is just not attached to the thoughts that arise and is unconditionally at peace. I have most trouble when i am around my girlfriend (yes, we got back together, for those who have seen other posts where i call her my ex). Our relationship seems create big waves, while i am constantly trying to calm the seas. I am taking it as a lesson from the Universe. So i cant obviously tune oit while i am with her, so i start feeling the actual problems of my ego. But still. I think that this is a very useful superpower to have - even if its conditional, the condition is easy to achieve - at least in my circumstances. Next stop - enlightenment city. There might be some traffic tho. Ps: the most useful methods to stop thinking i have, come from ekhart tolle and rupert spira, i simply love those guys. So what do you guys think - this has to be like at least 1/4 enlightenment, right?

My heart is enlightened

Maybe he talked with Leo before he started for permission. Otherwise i think its like stealing intellectual content / stealing a brand and is not right at all. Maybe could mean his videos may be taken down. But maybe he does have permission, so i cant judge.

Around where i live, there is this man i keep seeing on the street. He stands in one place doing absolutely nothing. I guess hes doing just that.

So my ex wrote to me asking "what's up".. and I was like - "Relatively or ultimately?" She said - "So you don't want to tell me..." - clearly not understanding something big is about to drop. Then I said - "Relatively, I am on my way home with the train. Looking forward to tea and meditation." "Ultimately, I am nothingness being aware of itself, so nothing is up!" BOOM POW WHATS UP SON? To which she replies: "Aham" Gosh, now I know why she's my ex.

Roflmao, this is so funny. Even the pictures of the videos and intro are the same almost. I guess when Leo became infinity, he also travelled through dimensions and got another version of himself to this one

Refreshing to hear. But most women i would bet, are not like you.. Are they? My ex seemed to be, but i never felt she had sparkles for me. She never listen to me and always speaks. But she didnt look at other guys, i dont even know why. I even told her, idk why you with me, i wouldnt even date me, im so ugly :D.

Only nothing can see everything, everything can only see nothing. If you want to see everything, be nothing. If you want to see nothing, be everything, or keep striving foe it. My Philosophy Ps: isnt that what they mean by: give up your ego (your everything) aka be nothing and you will see god. Like leo did in his 5 Meo Dmt trip. But if you keep being something, you cant get what you want, because you want to be in the arms of infinity, you dont want to be infinity - its a quite demanding job i would assume :D:D

That's deep man. Pass me the joint. Puff puff pass mthfkr!!!!

Nah man, my spiritual ego just feels attacked by meta spiritual egos that know more about my spiritual ego's experience than my spiritual ego itself. My spiritual ego is sad, so my spiritual ego will from now on follow the wise words of the spiritual master Ramana Maharshi. My spiritual ego now knows part of what he meant.

Who would be better off? You know this dance, we can do it all night. Sure its a cry for validation. How insightful. Thanks now i know. Who knows? I

Look pls don't be dissing my ego. It's not spiritual it's completely egoic ego . I thought we on this forum are on one wavelength and we like to share with like minded people. God knows I have nobody else to talk to on these things. I wasn't fishing for it, I was just being myself. I have been contemplating this problem of what to say, when someone asks me stuff like that, without lying. I'm also not taking it seriously and having fun with this shit. Excuse moi It's funny, all of us on this forum by now know that the ego is an illusion. Like even if you havent eradicated the illusion yet, it's pretty clear that you cannot find this I ( the ego ) no matter how far you look. It is nothing. A thought at best. The Ego is an expression, part of the flower called human. An illusory scent w/e. The thing im getting at is, that you are speaking to a human being right now. And that human being with or without ego (doesnt matter because ultimately ego doesn't exist) is aware of itself (You are aware of the ego -> illusion -> nothing or your true self -> awareness itself -> nothing). Any human being with or without ego is aware of itself. Therefore I was stating a fact there, and if you speak truth / fact, how is that ego? Just some neurons firing, ppl, where's that ego you are talking about SHOW ME MY EGO!!! 1+1 = 2 Mathematical ego? That's the simplest shit ever. I just thought the conversation was funny tbh, I wont bother you in future w/e

So this basically saying that nothing doesnt need anything to be aware - making it conciousness aka that which is aware of itself. So this makes the bottom line not nothing, but conciousness therefore everything is consciousness proved? That's radically good result! Let's dance

Cheers man, I just understood it wrongly. My bad. But yeah, I dont really see how saying what I did makes me look any better lol. How is nothing better than any thing

Bro I watched this video this morning. It's far from what's happening here Didn't you read what OrdinaryAwareness say? The realization that you are awareness is nothing special. Although I would not say it this way, I would say yeah, it's pretty easy to be aware that you are aware. And since you can't find yourself, you're nothing (no ego) - so what do you want me to lie that nothingness is not aware of itself? Im just saying the truth, where is the spiritual ego Just following my experience here, but you are judging me based on your biased mind.

Well in my point of view thhe purpose of life is to enjoy. And also the opportunity of ending the cycles of rebirth aka realizing true nature or whateva. But dont jump me (ordinaryawareness) its my own /relative/ view

Thats a good answer to your question too. You are arguing with yourself. In so many levels

the point of life was?

Are you OK bud. You are your own guru.

Hi to whoever is reading. I will be writing my dreams out here whenever I dream something worthwhile to put on. I think last night's dream qualified. Note - the dreams written are usually not the whole thing, because sometimes there are details that are too subtle to explain, or i dont remember bits, or it is somewhat irrelevant in my view. The Dream: ... Stuff about playing football with a colleague and talking to some doctor guy telling him all the supplements i take (most of those are the ones leo has a video on) he looked at me funny, while i was remembering the actual names of each one within the dream. Interesting bits started later. I was at home, there was a dvd player infront of me and an old TV. I suddenly got the in-dream realisation that i can put anything in that dvd and relive it. The dvds were full of footage from my family's past. My main idea was to see what my father was like, because hes been gone since 2001. I could actually get in this footage just like harry potter stuff. Next thing i am kicked out of that, and im on a ship ? That ship was somehow England. Dont ask. America declared war on England. I was on this ship with a girl, i knew her very well within the dream, but now i cant remember who she was. So war started and it was grand. The ship where i was, was hit, and somehow i was both the air and myself. My girl ran towards the room i was in to help me. She had two pets, one mouse and one bunny, so we grabbed their cages before we left running. I thought to myself - good thing im not attached to any stuff, i can run freely. Then we escaped the ship and we were on land, but the main feeling was fear, because we were, i thought, in danger. We ran past a corn field and i said: lets get some corn to eat later. Oh wait, we cant cook it, nevermind. So we went on. Suddenly bolders started falling from the sky in our direction - it was like a meteor shower. We tried to dodge, i even pushed one away but it hit her, and i thought i had killed her, but thankfully she was alright. After a while we managed to survive... And i suddenly realized wait... This is a dream... And i felt the sudden release of fear. I felt so good. And i told my girl - you know what this means? We're not in danger! Look, i can even fly! And i raised off the ground. It felt like both a lucid dream but at the same time i was not directly in control. So i asked her: if this is true, does this mean you are also dreaming this and we are having the same dream? And you will be able to remember when you wake up??? Then she smiled and said, still from the ground: No.. This is all you. Epicness

Wtf? Why are you setting sepatate time for self enquiry, i just do it all day long... Why make separate practise, shouldn't you be asking yourself this while you are talking to people or when an i thought pops up, or while you are pooping, eating, having a meditation session, having desires, feeling tired, feeling lonely anf so on. Who is teh one feelin lonely bro

Oh it just popped into my mind. You can definitely use this suicidal thoughts to your advantage. I mean instead of acting on them, use your desire to die to help you dive the deepest you can into this conciousness subject. Because you are ready to die, that will make you a better warrior. You will not be afraid to go where others would turn back from because of fear ? .

Or no form, please say no form also,senpai

They are just objects of knowing for you, the observer. But you r nothing and everything also. Gosh im confused when i think about that stuff. Thats why me loves no mind. I am nothing. Giving up yourself is definitely something good tho, whatever that means to you. Im also mental Cheers ?

Ive always been a mindless dodo bird, this just helps me be myself more fully <3 but thanks for the words and the salt we are one after all love you because i love myself ?
