  1. Holy molly, this shit goes deeper and deeper on a daily basis now. So this morning after a hour long meditation, I was interested on how to astral project, because why the fuck not. I just laid down, and affirm myself 20 times "I will astral project, I will astral project". The first 20-30 minutes I just relaxed my body, and entered a no-thought zone, while still being lucid (eyes closed). Then after these 30 minutes, the first experience happened: I was looking at my window (I could only saw my hands), but I could clearly feel I was still on my bed. This was already a step further from the last time, because this time I knew for sure I wasn't dreaming. Then I got an another experience just after ... I saw something that is literally, physically, rationally impossible ... My body split into two ... just like before, except this time I was opening the door of my room. I could see, from my bed, a hand opening the door. I COULD SEE AND FEEL A SINGLE HAND OPENING THE DOOR.
  2. The thing is, if you don't embrace your loneliness when it arises, you will never know yourself. You're actually all alone in this universe, it's you talking to yourself right now, and it's kind of beautiful once it's totally accepted and integrated by your mind. Untill then, you'll suffer from loneliness, of course you will, you still think you're separated from everything else. lol right now I'm alone in my house, but there is the lamp, the keyboard, the plant, the sofa, the door, the windows, it's all presence, it's all myself, I'm never alone, you're never alone, you just got to realize that
  3. Just looking at them playing is a bliss in itself. When they talk to me or play with me, it's even more palpable, the emotion is just too strong. I guess it's because they still experience life freely in their mind, which makes them vibrate way more than adults. They don't think about the future, they say exactly what they think, they use their imagination all the time, and of course they engage life fully without any fear. Yeah, that's seems pretty similar to something else RIGHT ? The goal isn't to become a responsible adult, no, it's to become a child who's fully engage in the thing he love the most.
  4. I wish I was in hell like some of you. I'm in equanimity for so long now that I start to doubt I'm even progressing anymore. Probably have to do a dark room retreat, lots of meditation aren't doing shit. @Sevi My avatar explain it pretty cleary, HMMMMMM !
  5. Because otherwise there wouldn't be any experience, so you must be there somewhere, don't you ?
  6. There is a brain, we're just saying that's not what you essentially are. Think about it for a while, if you were the brain, you will literally believe everything it says. Except you can be the observer of your own thoughts and not act on them, even when they scream you to do something. If you didn't experience this, well of course you believe you're the brain, since it's what you're experiencing.
  7. As much as a concept as you thinking the earth is round, or that the world war 2 happened. It's data in your mind, you don't actually know if it's true, same for your brain. It's "common sense" (society/culture) that tells you that, there is no evidence in your direct experience that's true.
  8. Start by developping a 20 minutes meditation habit. Then in 2 months a 30 minutes self-inquiry habit. Read The Power Of Now from Eckhart Tolle, then when you've disidentify from your mind, read The Book Of Not Knowing from Peter Ralston.
  9. Well, I want to hug them really hard yes, but not that way no
  10. If you had a neurosis about not being worthy of woman or that something is wrong with you, it can help to realize that's not the case. If I didn't take care of my virginity I would still idealize women, now they are just people that I can (very rarily) be attracted to.
  11. By remembering you are life itself and there must be a good reason why you're throwing yourself something
  12. Maybe get back on some entertainment that interest you, but just limit it to 1 hour per day.
  13. Well, just keep being this presence. Try to be it whatever you do, and it will all unfold by itself
  14. @Danielle So good that I copino pastorino your posts
  15. Except Zion is still in the Matrix @egoless Chillax hommie, I wasn't attacking you
