This guy is the most convincing evidence for the after life so far.

Being in the environment full of diciplined people is definitely more supportive than being in the environment full of addicts. However you can borrow qualities of those that are not physically present with you even. If one connects with a grace of a guru or a deity of some sort, their qualities and presence will hover over you, uplifting you, until yours becomes as certain as theirs.

I love you too

Calling people names is of no substance. It only reveals that you're driven not by light but by ego. The position that all Trump supporters are automatically wrong about everything is narrow minded aswell imo.

What people focus on reveals what they value. When you focus on people's good qualities, it shows you value light. When you're fixated on seeing someone's flaws and result in criticizing them or worse, demean them and ridiculing them, it shows there's an investment in the dark. And only ego would hope o find value there. It's a somewhat cryptic message to ponder.

If somebody farts and the whole world becomes spiritual, then that's the greatest teaching. How much spiritual knowledge you display has no meaning unless it transforms lives.

It's not about what a person says, it's about how much positive influence a person is able to generate on the world that matters in the end. It just so happens that His contributio to the world is awe inspiring, hence the reaction from people goes accordingly.

I believe Peter Ralston falls under the category of gnana yoga. Case closed.

J krishnamurti is one example of gnana yoga in practice.

Let's establish the fact that intellect(gnana) can be used to achieve yoga first, then we can discuss how successful Chris has been in doing that.

Gnana yoga

Wohoo!

Gnana yoga exists for a reason.

Using intellect to achieve enlightenment is not unknown phenomena. There is a thing called gnana yoga for a reason.

Do not conform any longer to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is—his good, pleasing and perfect will. —ROMANS 12:2 Happy new year

Borrow it from those who have it until yours becomes as certain as theirs. By association you can aquire qualities of another entity without doing the work yourself. That's the meaning of grace.

I believe the message Maharaji was trying to send is that psychedelics are a child play to an enlightened yogi. Not the message that his genetics don't respond to this particular substance. That would've been a useless message.

Ok 🙏

What sounds aprupt af may actually make sense once you allow yoruself to really study his logic. Which I myself haven't spent the time to do so. But I suspect it would take a long time because he does not explain much in those videos, he just drops the final conclusions of decades worth of contemplation.

I think his work is about giving a logically consistent model of reality that proves the existence God. Not really about entering God conciousness samadhi. I'm under the impression to fully understand the model he made and to successfully understand the amount of logic behind it would take a very serious study. It's just my personal impression tho.

His logic and thought process is much more complicated than that. Honestly it's hard to follow his thought process because he doesn't even explain how he arrives at his conclusions most of the time. He just shares the end result of his decades worth of contemplation. To really understand his position would take enormous amount of digging into his work imo.

Just understand this one thing: Joy excludes suffering. Wisdom excludes stupidity. Faith and trust excludes fear and doubt. Because it's a spectrum. Those on the spectrum of suffering are excluded from Joy. Those who are on the spectrum of fear are excluded from perfect faith and trust. Those on the spectrum of stupidity are excluded from wisdom. Those on the spectrum of hell (stupidity, fear, suffering, limitation) can be called to be excluded from God's kingdom(Joy, love, wisdom, perfect faith and unlimitedness) . What side of the spectrum you fall is your responsibility.
