  1. You dont. You need to understand where they come from and detach from the source. When you pick a few values and label them you just creating a second ego and labeling it superior.
  2. @Visionary good observation. To go even further: your opinion about ego is also ego Its the ego that attaches. And that is fine and normal. You can not prevent this. You(nothing) can however not attach to the ego, where it wil become extremely clear what the ego is doing. And from there you can choose to give it attention or not. Hope that makes sense
  3. @BeginnerActualizer we use the tools we are given without the manual and ego seems the best tool for survival and reproduction.
  4. @Kenhol dont bother. You could but its not like they would get the picture. Stick to simple short truths. They atleast have affect. Plus people dont like to be told there insane
  5. @rush dont try to suppres or ignore them. Just give them less value and meaning. (Suppressing is giving them super importance)
  6. @heisenburger Enlightenment (not spiritual enlightenment as those words do not mix) will show the illusory nature of happiness. Happiness is nothing more then a construct of the ego. Or one might say a bunch of things you makeup and based on those things you chose to feel a certain way.
  7. @Gabriel Antonio there are hardly any peope not lost in ego. And those that are free from it see that what you dont say. And i dont mean people that feel the need to show how spiritual they are (spiritual egos). Dont let this part of your ego dictate what you should and shouldnt do. You can be free from it by stopping to give it somuch value.
  8. Yes That includes things being true or not. Or things being right or wrong. There all just thoughts we have. Our thoughts about something are not the something. But its not like we have a alternative
  9. The issue is that you are identifying with this "observing state". So in a sense (lack for better words) you are switching between imagination A and B. I know the "self-aware" state feels a lot more "awake", this is in a sense due to you paying more attention to your body then to your mind. Don't forget that identifying and imagining are amazing tools. And that without these tools we are not even able to make a (good tasting) sandwich. Try not to think at all. If you do that a lot, it becomes more natural. And in a sense some thoughts become like background noise. To not think so much, be more aware of where your "attention" goes. When its to much in your head space, bring it to your body.
  10. Everything in your head, is in your head. So........ Everything you think is nonreality.
  11. @harisankartj it is posible to stop attaching to this illusion.
  12. @Ry4n Enlightenment is posible for everyone who is willing to stop mental mastrubation.
  13. @alifesurreal Unfiltered reality is for a lack of a better description "nothing" and "meaningless". That what gives meaning to it is also what creates the filters.
  14. @LetTheNewDayBegin By being honest with yourself. You are not detaching at all, you are just replacing one attachment with a other attachment and labeling one good and the other bad. I know your are currently unable to do otherwise, but just be aware of this.
  15. @Shubh_5S Life just is. Our opinions/thoughts about it is the illusion. And so is the concept lazinnes.
  16. Sounds more like a fraud, then again i cant be bothered to even watch one video so my opinion should kind of be ignored
  17. @FeelFree One is firsthand and the other is secondhand. Unless you do the science yourself of course.
  18. @Issa Campusano Thanks
