  1. Ego death is knowing you're not the character in the movie. The character in the movie will exist as long as the movie is ongoing.
  2. Yeah I usually don't smile when I sense a very dense and restless ego around me, they take it as a threat, since it's all about them. I know what you mean,In Japan I think If you smile to a stranger or a worker/office person, they take it as an insult. Too bad I probably never going to go there then, or I'll be put into jail ???
  3. Your self-actualization is the false one, let me tell you about Leo Gura !
  4. This. There is no one else to love in the first place. So the more we can be at peace, forgiving and caring about ourselves, the more we will love «others». Usually misuderstood and used as a narcissistic tool for the ego though ?
  5. I ate meat !!!!!!! ????? On Pokemon ?????
  6. Becoming so joyful that people ask you why you are like this ???
  7. It's not about having a blank mind, it's about being detached from thoughts and emotions, knowing experientially that you are which sees them. You could have a blank mind and still be highly identified to the body mind, thus still suffering when a difficult situation comes up. The desire to have a blank mind only arise from an ego that is tired to make itself its own hell. The funny thing is that the more desire you have to shut your mind, the more thoughts you will have ?
  8. Leo snorts all kinds of stuff. And he definitely fucked a lot of women. Never seen anyone complain about that before ?
  9. Does someone has non-dogmatic ressources to read online for free ? About spirituality or self-actualization. I forgot to buy my new book again ?
  10. Enlightenment is supposed to strip away all falsehood in the long term if you don't delude yourself and study the teachings properly. So I don't see how could one be enlightened and not live his purpose. In the other hand, you can easily think you got your life purpose in check, but since there is still a heavy ego that thinks it runs the show, it is far from being genuine. So I would say you gotta do both, because your life won't feel very fulfilling if you don't have a plan to actualize and give your gift to the world, And you will never know if you're bullshitting yourself if you don't deconstruct the neurotic sense of self that needs a goal to have meaning in his (fake) life.
  11. Who's hilarious ? Where is the I that is hilarious ? There is none ! No I ! There is no one to be hilarious !
  12. I got again the Lucky draw, I got the exam on the only class I studied, again From what I've seen, even in the worst case scenario I should have something like a 7/8 There is one thing I learned this past year, it is that whatever happens, no matter how painful an ending ends, there is always Something great after it. We can't see it because we wanted this Relationship or this job to continue to work for us, so bad. The thing is, it's not about what we want, it's about what we need to raise in consciousness. This almost never comes suffering, not that we should chase that, but it's through tough challenges that we grow, not in our comfort zone. It should be obvious, but from what I'm seeing, lots of spiritual seekers thinks enlightenment is about pleasant expériences, while in fact it's just about raising your consciousness. Which is done by seeing all the suppressed stuff in us, and facing all our fears in the real world, not just in our head. So you can't expect it to be joyful all the time, it's not how life works. Once you see and accept that though, the moments of suffering are accepted and goes away faaaar more quickly. So my advice for anyone reading this thread, the next time something "bad" happens to you, try to learn what this pain tries to tell you. Once you finds the reason, and not the excuses your mind will try to give you, Then you will be able to accept it, and let go. If there is suffering there is always misconception of what you think reality should be. You can't suffer and accept how things are, that's impossible Have a good day, I love you baby
  13. Especially the dead ones, because you literally can't argue someone who died for your sins ! «I know the TRUTH !!! Just let me check on my notebook for some juicy nondual concepts I didn't embody in the slightest ...»
  14. You can't teach something you don't know anything about. Unless you're awaken right now, you don't know anything except concepts in your mind. Not only this, but you might awaken only on the level of the mind, which is only half way. A lot of teachers are arrogant and teach on this level, you don't want to do this. That would be a distraction and wouldn't help as much as if you'd awaken on the level of the heart, too. Even at this point you should still not teach, and first embody this new awakening.
  15. If you have a really high libido, maybe doing semen retention would help. At some point you would get used to it and will have total control of your urges. Sex, masturbation or porn addiction makes sexuality way more frequent and casual that it is Imo.
