It's nothing at all. It's just you amusing yourself. The faster you realize this, the better. There's huge tendency to exaggerate things in human mind. Especially this kind of stuff like energy, chakras, lucky numbers, astrology, ghosts, spirits etc. "Stupid people will be the first ones to see ghosts, inteligent ones will always look around and wonder" #Sadhguru. Once you say a third eye will make you see other dimensions, all the stupid people will be the first ones to see that all the inteligent ones will just be confused and wondering Tho it's a sign of progress, keep doing what you're doing -
Don't oversimplify this. This takes decades and dacades of hardcore sadhana. That's the reason why we see so many retards here caliming they're enlightened because they think 20min a day for a year is enough to become a sage who spent his whole life to pursue truth. "The danger, Sadhguru tells us does not lie in being in the dark; that can be dispelled for anyone who genuinely desires it, but in settling for an easy brilliance, a spurious radiance. The danger does not lie in seeking urgently, but in arriving cheaply. " #Sadhguru

When there's no thought then there's a perfect equanimity and no projecting. But this perfect equanimity state takes decades of practice. It's not enough just to be present because there's still very subtle thoughts in the subconcious mind happening and interpretating and projecting. Sadhguru says if you are able to be in absolute equanimity where there is absolutly no distortion of reality then you'll see everything upside down because if you know physics that's how an eye captures a sight and then brains distort that by turing it around to make sense to you. So there are many many many many many layers of subconcious thoughts and beliefs that are distorting your reality right now. In Bhuddhism this is the main practice to eliminate all distortions of reality. To be perfectly still and equanimous. No cravings and no aversions. No looking up to anybody, no looking down on anyone. Seeing things just the way they are..not the way you think they are. Plain mirror mind like a lake that reflects reality perfectly. Vippassana is one example of such a practice. This is fun to contemplate the impact of this

There's more to it then you think. Those projections that you named is just a sand grain in the desert There's not single moment in your life where you're not projecting. I mean pick a single moment in your entire life or even as you read this message you're projecting your opinions, judgements, interpretations everything on every single moment of your life. You haven't experienced a single moment in your life without projecting. Mic drop.

That's 99% of the people in this world. And the biggest tragedy is that they all think they are aware of their emotions. It's painful to watch actually. Tho i can't blame them, I've been there myself thinking the same way Good post btw

No self esteem doesn't play any role here. It's your mental balance that matters. Like sadhguru says before you remove all the pshychological structure you've created for yourself, make sure you're able to stand being insane. More elaborate video about this question is here. The importence of balance before jumping into the madness. "If you dismantle your psychological structure without balance, you'll go crazy" #sadhguru -

Fire = body tempreture, digestion, anger i think... I'm not very educated here. Air i don't know exacly but it has something to do with movement. Like thought process for example. Sadhguru says if you take mastery of air element in your system your mental balance will be 100% perfect. I think there is more to air element. Air = vitality, energy maybe -

Okey I made an effort to send good will and wellbeing to you @FoxFoxFox ? If it works it works. If it didn't work at least i got some fun praying -
Salvijus replied to okulele's topic in Spirituality, Consciousness, Awakening, Mysticism, Meditation, God
Maybe you're right But how do you know it's not your projection ? -
Salvijus replied to okulele's topic in Spirituality, Consciousness, Awakening, Mysticism, Meditation, God
I think you need to show your picture for this to work. I'm just guessing because that's how i saw it is done in ashrams. But I'm not the expert -

They didn't give a shit anymore about their body Yes. It's true tho. In their experience whatever happens to the body it's not even happening to them. This Ramakrisha that sadhguru talks about was advaita in other words self-enquiry enlightened sage. -

Being not ready for enlightenment is a common phenomena. It's a gradual process. Step by step. If you force it too much something will brake or fuse out. -

Omg thank you for this post. This is the highest level of wisdom and giving yourself to others. It means you wish wellbeing for everyone, even for your enemies When someone slaps you it is an act of anger. Turning your other cheek is the response of inclusiveness. You don't dissmiss a person who hits you. You offer yourself to help him. In other words it's like this. When someone hits you on the cheek, offer yourself to help him. It's like you say. I offer myself to you by turning my other cheek so you could feel better. That's the the the the the highest level of wisdom, sense of inclusiveness, enlightenmemt everything.... Only someone with immense levels of inclusiveness are capable of doing this. Nobody understands the significence of this statement. Not even priests. Sadhguru says. "When someone hits you on the cheek, you show then the other cheek, that person will fall into your embracive arms and cry... How many of you are capable of that?" It's a FUCING ORGASM of wisdom if you get it................................. Here's a Sadhguru's explanation of Jesus words. (Skip to 3.30) it's a different explanation and interpretation then I gave. But he was talking about inclusiveness somehere i cant find the video. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=Nri5zbwk2cs Edit: now that I watched this video i got confused maybe missunderstood the statement. I watched this video few years ago actually. There's a new way completly opened up for me as to how to look at this statement. It's almost like showing your other cheek is like the ultimate level of humbleness. No resistence..surrender. love. And offering all mixed up together.... A very bhakti yoga quality. Prayerful quality also. Sooo powerful...... -

The process of expanding your identity is the joy by itself. Including others as a part of yourself is an incredible sense of expensiveness and satisfaction. The whole effort of spirituality is to brake one's limited identity and make it larger and larger and then brake it into all inclusive, boundless existence. Bhuddha sayed, "if you knew they joy of sharing and giving you wouldn't miss a single meal without sharing it with someone in some way" ?

Maybe you experienced Yoga. That's what Yoga means - union But who knows maybe you're just amusing yourself when nothing happens mind exaggerates into something very big.. this happens very often But it's not a surprize because a huge upsurge of energy is coming. On March 4th there's gonna be the climax of spiritual receptivity. Do your Yoga on this day after sunset in the evening or in moorning next day before sunrise, see if something happens -
@Gabriel Antonio what can i do if it's true. Be mad at them not me

@jsonte loool Let me try again then You have to understand what is the root problem here why do you su struggle to communicate, to express yourself? Why can't you think clearly, with a mental clarity and pearceing perseption and critical very clear understanding of the situation? Why can't you be more humorous, relaxed, natural, and spontanious? Why do you struggle to inspire people and be their leader and lead people to greater good? See... To inspire people, to lead them is not a skill. It's a consciquence of your development. If your critical thinking is very sharp, your mental clarity is much better then others then you can be a guide to them. How can you be a guide to someone if you yourself have 0 mental clarity? So being a leader is just a natural consiquence when you have much more clarity about given situation, in that situation you'll become a leader. Now how to develop this mental clarity and perception. Well that's where meditation and consciousness work comes in. It's all about becoming more mindfull, more insightfull, less identified with your mind which is the core principle of having more mental clarity. You see when you're too entangled in your thoughts and emotions, you cant see anything. Once you detach from the mind, through meditation, yoga, whatever practice that you do. Then you have a much better view of how things really are. That's what mental clarity/critical thinking is. Let me use an annalogy to make you understand how this works. Let me ask you is earth round or flat? Well in your experience you cant tell. Honestly it feels flat in your current experience. But if you fly higher off the ground you start to see that it's actually round. If you fly to the cosmos then you can clearly say, yes earth is round there's no question about it. Same way with your mind. Once you're inside nothing is clear to you. You're confused about everything. Once you move higher everything becomes more and more clear. So okey what do we got so far. Being a leader = natural consiquence of having more mental clarity then others = you need to do consciousness work, raise your awareness. Now communication. Struggling with communication has a few problems. 1. Emotional blockages, past traumas, etc. For this there are specific methods, yogic tools preferably. But not necessarily. Like being in nature or doing osho dynamic meditation or doing some psychedelics(which I'm strongly against and they have 1000problems attached it) can give you emotional purging, cleansing etc. Do some therapy or osho dynamic meditation. That's the best advise for you. The best advise would actually be to learn proper yogic sciences specifically designed for these things but osho dynamic meditation is also good. 2. Emotional disconnection. Meaning, you're not aware of your inner feelings thus you find it very hard to express yourself. Does it happen that you want to say something but you just don't know how, you're confused, you don't understand what's happening to you, you don't know how to express what is going on in your head.? It happens like to 99perc. people that I met. All this is because of not being mindful of emotions and feelings. There's a serious lack of awareness. When you're absolutely aware of inner situation. Then you'll notice that your ability to express yourself is phenomenally grater. Right now It's like you're trying to play music but you're tone deaf. You'll be a very lausy player. There's great annalogy about this if you're somewhat musician. All the tone deaf people when they sing ir play they are very confident that they are playing in tune (i was one of them :D) untill someone records them, then they realize omg I'm totally off the tune. But they cant hear it. They think they are in tune. The same thing happens with people who don't have emotional connection and awareness. They think they know themselfs well, they think they understand what they feel untill they do some self-reflection then they realize don't understand themselfs at all You see. For example, what's the difference between jazz player and a tone deaf person trying to improvize playing music? Well the reason jazz player is able to improvize and express himself sponteniously, playfully, effortlessly like a breeze because he did decades of ear training, sensitivity training. That's the whole difference. When a person is tone deaf only noise comes out of him. The same goes with people who don't have emotional awareness..they think they do but when they try to express themselfs only noise comes out. When you do lots of mindfulness and rise your sensitivity your expression with people will become like jazz, effortless, spontenious music will come out of your mouth. 3. Reason why people struggle with expressing themselfs is bad coherence between left and right brains. In other words, bad articulation or verbal skills this is the least of your problems. It can also be improved by meditation, excpesially kriya yoga. Okey humor. Humor is basicly the same as communication or expression of your feelings. If you're relaxed and spontenious, natural, authentic people will find you pleasent. And your actions will always be appropriate to the situation. Don't try to be funny person. These people are a headache who try to be funny all the time. Just be honest and in harmony with yourself and life around you. Then your expression will always be right and appropriate. When it's time to be silly you'll be silly. Move with a flow. For this you need serious serious serious consciousness work. Years of meditation, Yoga, kriya, whatnot... To be spontenious, in harmony in life is the one of the major focus in spirituality. Okey so see.... All those things communication, leadership, humor, mental clarity/ critical thinking is just a consciquence of your consciousness development. That's why I said. You asked how to work on them simultaneously, i sayed do the consciousness work. It's a solution to everything in life. It's number 1thing in life that will bring you success in whatever feald you're trying to achieve success. Okey, this should be enough to at least give a taste of what it means to raise your awareness, do consciousness work

For everyone who think their're enlightened. "You're just trying to decorate your individuality with whatever words come to you" #Sadhguru -
I'd focus more on being authentic then trying to be something you're not. But there's a way to bring out the gentleness in everyone. The best way would be if you did some yogic practice but that's unrealistic right now. I'd say focus on things like volunteering and devotion. Find something to take care of everyday. Buy some plants that you could take care of. Practice devotion. Do selfless activity. That's it basicly. It's simple but no one is doing it.
