You could do walking meditation, but it's way more difficult if you're not ground in your body or already have a peaceful mind. I don't recommand to substrate traditional sitting for walking meditation though.

Search for Chenhsin comtemplation workshop around your state (there may not all be listed on this list). http://chenghsin.com/workshops-on-the-road.html Also search for Zen retreat around your place, and learn about which spiritual teachers are well known in your country, or if there is any workshop done by well known spiritual teacher worldwide.

Not at all, I just have an open opera tab about it. It's proven to be effective, so I don't see why it wouldn't work (on some level, I'm not saying it will be day and night).

Check Martin guide on Shadow Work (my signature), all self-esteem issues and anxiety is tied to past baggage and identification to the ego. If you meditate everyday, and try to be conscious of your thoughts patterns without judging everyday, and are doing shadow work, then in a year or two it will all drop. All mental issue are a problem of identification and too much past and future in your head (except clinical one, where the brain is damaged ofc).

Just had an insight that made me cry. There isn't people who gets more conscious. There is only the one true self, which includes everything.

Very easy, meditate all day for 1 week. @Ether Then don't be surprised to not get the result you want if you're not ready to work for it.

Didn't even know the interview was out. I thought it would be on Leo's channel. It's really interesting and eye-opening, especially for newbies.

Did you try body scan on a long meditation session ? @LaucherJunge When I was practising body scan one year ago, I had a full body orgasm. So i don't know for sure, but it may be linked.

If you live in a country where sun is rare in winter, get a solar lamp.

Yes, except that it is less refreashing and deep short term wise (at the beginning) Self-observing yourself all day long is far more effective than doing 30 minutes of meditation every day. Now if you can't self observe yourself all day long, and get inconscious most of the time, meditation is necessary. Even if you could be conscious all day, there is no reason not to meditate either, after all, what kind of life doesn't have 30 minutes of free time per day ? A very low conscious one.

Then get a girlfriend. Doesn't matter either way, everything you encounter in your life can increase your awareness, if you decide to confront head on with the intention of just feeling the emotions that arise within instead of reacting like a robot to the situation. Doesn't matter what you do in the end, so just do what you want, but stay conscious. @Ilya My signature.

If you increase your awareness really hard, then you'll see that the ego is just a misconception, it can't be killed because it does not even exist in the first place. The ego is just the voice of the body from which you experience life + your beliefs/assumptions, nothing more. BTW, who would want to kill the ego ? The ego ...

Also, if we really wanted it, really REALLY wanted it, we would take 5-meo every 2/3 months, and that's it. If you don't do that, then you're aren't ready or you simply don't want it. @molosku Why in 10 years ? Why not in 6 months ? Why not this month or this week ? You see, pushing back things we want to do or are afraid to do, with good reasonings behind them is always a sign of self-deception. I'm as guilty as anyone, I admit I'm a pussy, otherwise I would just do what I said before.

That's how I see it too. When you've come to the point that you really don't know what you are, self-inquiry become just a doing. Better going for a long walk in the forest, in total silence, just admiring the beauty and mistery of nature at this point, it will be far more pleasant and effective. If it's winter, then just meditate and be, which will be the same thing at some point. It's when you surrender to the fact that you can't do shit that it comes, which DOES NOT means you should be lazy and stay inconscious watching tv, having low quality sex or playing video game all day (or whatever you do that makes you inconscious). It only means you acknowledge that the only thing you can really do is to let yourself be in the present moment without resistance whatever you do, that's what it means.

If you tell the girl you're doing nofap she will be surprised and have a lot of respect (unless she's stupid as fuck). And it doesn't matter, you can still fuck her 10 minutes after, hell you can even continue to fuck her without stopping after your ejaculation.

The amount of drama between couple when vr sex will be available will be insane. So much fun ahead !

The book of not knowing, or how to mindfuck your mind so much that you don't even know what is real or not anymore. I understand why it's the first on the list now

I was thinking @Leo Gura, did you planned to make a Psychedelics "How to" (sticky thread) ? I know you could have legal problem if you cite some websites and of course dealers. I'm not talking about that though, I'm talking about basics steps to take them safely per categories, tools that are legal that can be used to verify the purity of the substances, basic rules on how to deal a purchase with a dealer, and how to find one (still without citing anyone or any websites), frequencies to take them, etc ... Of course we should do our researchs ourselves (very easily with a google search), but if you really wants to limit the misuses of it, there is no reasons not to make a sticky, it can only be an upside for your community.

I don't remember exactly when he said the name of the church, so you'll have to watch the entire episode.

Notice you're talking to a lots of people heavily identified to their ego. The ego does not want the truth, so how did he avoid it while still thinking he's going for it ? Mental masturbation. @Ether Most likely no, there is so much self-deception going that even 10 books wouldn't cover all of that shit

Do shadow work until there is no past left in you, meditate everyday, be ultra conscious of every one of your thoughts/emotions without judging them and fully accepting them. That's how you learn to love, because in the end, there is only one being, you. If you love unconditionally yourself, then you will love others too. True unconditional love is enlightenment, because to love unconditionally you have to realize who you are, which is exactly what enlightenment is.

Very simple, when you see everything as you, when you're not the center of your experience, but just one experience happening inside the whole, Then everything that you experience (with this 1st person view) is you, and therefore you are literally moving in you, through you, there is nothing that separates you from everything "else", except appearances. It only happened once to me (for a few seconds), so if you need more precision @summon an enlightened dude.

I'll read it asap, and buy it if it's not total bullshit (which I doubt it is). And good luck, I hope it will work it out for you FREE STUFF BOYZZZ !!! (couldn't help it, not sorry )

Dude, you can call cops, medics and fireguard with it, it's ok not to have one if you live in a community where you're always with people around you, or in a very big city where there is always a lot of people around (but even then, at night shit can still happen). That's one of the few reasons why I still keep a smartphone.
