@aclokay your life is too easy for your health. free yourself from excessive convenience. your motives to do what you think you want to do are built upon a huge layer of lies.

@MiracleMan @Kaity attraction to emotionally damaged partner comes from a lack of self love. since you undervalue yourself, you can't imagine yourself being valuable to a healthy partner. and then ego comes into play with the neediness for the approval of someone else. so you imagine yourself with an emotionally damaged partner because he/she is already in deep shit. "how can it get worse than that? of course i will be a positive thing in his/her life. then i'll be appreciated as a good person and loved as i want to be."

straightforward hatha yoga. some postures in particular: Urdhva Mukha Svanasana Adho Mukha Svanasana Virabhadrasana I Virabhadrasana II Ustrasana Matsyasana to perform those postures and to benefit from them, you need the guidance of a competent teacher. preferably someone who's transformed his own body with yoga before starting to teach.

i was listening to sadhguru once and something that he said hit me really hard. he said something like "i talk a lot. i teach yoga. i prepare people to teach yoga. but my real goal is to teach you to sit like this. if you only learn how to sit like this i consider my job done with you." then i observed how all of those masters sit. they're all super relaxed. relaxed face expressions. so i started to study why i wasn't able to sit like they sit. it became very practical. every time i sit, i would observe how relaxed i allow myself to be. gensho sensei was explaining about one fundamental difference between the occidental and the oriental way to learn. in the occident we want to understand before trying. in the orient they imitate, and experience how it feels first. only then they reason about it. so yes. in the beginning it's an imitation but it's the key for me to have a glimpse of what they feel. then i practice and practice until it becomes me. in zen we bow to buddha. we bow to our true nature. but it's not about devotion. it's about allowing oneself to experience true humility of heart, which is where the deepest peace comes from. if you're not humble, you will not be able to experience peace. so we bow and bow until it reaches us through our body movement. the body language is extremely powerful. when i remember maharashi's eyes, i feel his humility. his graceful way to express himself with his body. his way of wishing happiness for everybody.

you need some serious practice of yoga to open the structure of your chest.

you're doing great it's just that your priorities aren't completely aligned with Truth yet. let me explain how i did it, since you asked. there was a point from which i decided to sit like siddhartha, walk like jesus, smile like maharashi, be healthy like sharath jois, speak like adyashanti and do good like sadhguru. it's a long process but i think that's the highest potential for a human being. i am about to finish my masters, but it doesn't matter that much. my academic role is just a play. this is why i became able to meditate 24/7: i threw away the illusory roles and my mental space became very VAST. if you continue going to retreats, your priorities will shift naturally. this is why i said that you're doing great. from yogi to yogi, much love. ajasatya

why aren't you loving, caring, soft and compassionate?

there are a lot of people doing it. i am doing it. if you have these illusory barriers in your mind, it means that you simply don't want it yet. imagine yourself listing all these things to ramana maharashi and finishing your sentence with an interrogative tone just like you did. he would look at your eyes very deeply and smile in a funny way. what do you see?

you have to practice a lot, but it's like fishing. it doesn't matter how good you are at fishing, in the end it isn't you who make the fish bite the fishhook. if you want to attain domain over satori, you have to allow meditation to be the most common and intimate thing to you. you have to live in meditation 24/7 just like the masters (ramana maharashi, shinzen young, shunryo suzuki, siddhartha gautama etc). you have to become a master. do you know what it takes to be a master?

yes. we work for human prosperity (earth planet prosperity) and wellbeing.

@SFRL we use ayahuasca to strengthen the group and to heal people who come asking for help. eventually some of them decide to stay and the society grows larger. while under the effect of ayahuasca, we study the existence, the spirit. the subjects vary from deeply fundamental and mystical to solidly practical. we're a huge family. nature is a healthy place for us to grow our kids. and they LOVE It. the children that grew up with us became responsible, loving and caring human beings. we treat nature with care and it treats us even better. we also practice syntropic agriculture and heal the planet. we grow forests!

hello there. i love you. where have you been?

i've had some crazy experiences with ayahuasca in which i could see/feel the details of the life of other people. i could see the mistakes they make, unhealthy details about their intimate lives. i could feel in "my" body the suffering that "they" experience in "their" bodies. it gets really crazy. it's truly mysterious. we think we know but we're completely clueless. CLUELESS.

dude, you chose the best words to say what you said. thanks for the huge laugh! i do. i'm part of a society of shamans. we plant mariri and chacrona, then we harvest them, then we brew a tea called ayahuasca and then we drink it together. i'm getting closer and closer to nature everyday.

@Danda there's no entity/individuality/atman experiencing this perspective right now. the word "I" doesn't point to a separated phenomena of the universe. when we say "I" we're actually referring to the very same thing, which is the entire universe itself. we're just unconscious of it most of the time unless we practice a lot. your confusion comes from believing that there's a separated thing experiencing the external world, when in fact there's just the universe experiencing itself through many eyes, ears, skins, sea waves, star explosions and singularities. imagine that your kidney became so complex that it started to think. he'd probably go like "i hate that big pulsing bomb of meat, delivering a lot of impurities for me to filter all the time". or it could go the other way around and be grateful for being alive. but Truth doesn't take those thoughts in consideration because the liver and the heart are part of the same body. and the planet earth is a bigger body. and the universe is the ultimate body. and they're all completely mystical.

the entire universe is a huge breathing thing. it goes infinitely from big bang to big crunch and then to big bang again. the breath is a doorway to the mystery of the present moment.

SURE THING.

@aniss find out something that people need or think that they need. be careful not to become evil here though; figure out a way to offer it for a competitive price; work really hard to produce it; advertise how your product would solve people's needs; sell it.

no. i've cut those off of my life when i was 14 years old. i'm 28 now and i'm very much alive without them. i intend to keep it clean like this until my last breath .

very good. you said a lot of useless things but at last you said what matters: some practical questions. it isn't a matter of disbelieving. you have to grasp the illusory nature of thoughts, whether they're loving or destructive. how to do so? you don't fight them and don't attach to them. don't try to be positive and don't fear the negative. relax in neutral. just observe and don't get involved. bring your attention back to your breathing and live on. if you try to fight thoughts with more thoughts, you'll be feeding the mess. about the art of living, they're great. very joyful people. i got in touch with yoga at july 21th in 2015 because of them and since then i've been practicing a lot, improving my health. everyday i feel healthier than the day before, so i'm very grateful to them. if your intuition is telling you to get in touch with them and practice what they propose, do eet!

@Toby the best way to help mankind to start doing something is just doing it. you're creating a mental projection of "enlightened beings". instead, ask yourself why aren't YOU more kind? what's your contribution to the world?

@Nadosa hi there. i want to share what i did (and still do) when i was where you are. i started to expand my life instead of trying to fix things. that expansion has been changing the content of my entire being and i'm growing out of the mud as someone completely different. i no longer identify with the past. the thing is, this cure requires drastic practical effort because you have to live a new life everyday, until the new life becomes your life. you live in germany, which, i believe, has holistic events going on. why don't you start searching for them and being part of them? yoga classes, zen meetings, events about healthy food, retreats, workshops, groups of people who plant trees. i bet there's a lot going on. your prison is mental. the voice that says "i don't want to do those things" is just a thought that happens to you because of your old conditioning. be a good friend to yourself and face that mental resistance. change your conditioning and your thoughts will change. the first stage of becoming free of conditioning is the hardest one, but everytime you do the opposite of what those destructive thoughts say, that's a great victory for your health.

you can't. but something you can do is increase the quality of your breathing cycles. relax your ABS and breathe slower and deeper. using only the upper portion of your lungs entails poor life quality. seek a good yoga teacher if you need (that's what i did).

@Sagatarius from the human capacity to question and to suffer for it.
