No buddy, no joke, Ooooooooh. Jurassic park is coming. wait for Godzilla holding a rose bouquet at your doorstep

Wait Prabhaker is coming. His flight is just a little late.

Don't get angry

I have lots of friends. But they are only good for socializing. I don't share much with them because it's just formal, not very deep and I suck at getting intimate. And they don't want deeper connections. And I understand that. It's good to have fun with them but that's all I can do with them, sometimes pretend that I am happy just to be with them. Among them are a few ones who I consider my special friends, the ones I can share with. Now the problem is that whenever I am facing trouble, I don't call them because I get guilty as hell, don't wanna burden them with my stuff. I feel I shouldn't be doing it. I just want to see them happy. I don't wish to disturb them. Do you find it difficult to open up to your friends too ?

Beautiful eyes

@Prabhaker true. @John Flores Happy Easter brother.

This is funny because the same people who disagree with you would probably be saying the same thing about you as well. Once you are on the path of spirituality, you should not have the craving to control how people think. It's their perception just like you have your perception. Everyone is entitled to have their own opinions. You're supposed to express openly what your opinions are and let them have theirs. From the nature of your post it seems that you want everyone to think as you do. No. That's not going to happen. That's the bitter pill you need to push down your throat. You get the frustration because you've a need to be self righteous. We all do. But once get rid of egoic tendencies, you'll look at the world like a silent observer. You'd stop expecting people to be a certain way. Debates are always frustrating because everyone is trying to prove they are somehow right. One of the reasons I never get into debates. But the tragedy is they don't realize that everyone has different minds and difference perspectives on the same subject and all perspectives should be welcome instead of trying to debate it. Healthy debates do not create frustration because people are respectful of each other opinions and give ample space to each other. The debates that are frustrating are the ones where people have huge egos and tend dominate others with their opinions and create tension. Embrace yourself and the world. You cannot change the world because it is at is whether perfect or not. You have to give contributions and do the best you can to bring a positive change. But don't expect the entire world to change.. Be at peace with yourself. The world is not in your palms !!

There are so many problems in this world like diseases and poverty. Instead of doing this, he could have used superpowers to cure people of all problems. What's the point of doing this. What benefits do we get if some monk has superpowers that is only limited to trivial stuff.

Isn't it amazing that we aren't dead by now given how crazy we are.

Sometimes we need to look at the man in the mirror before pointing fingers at others for our mistakes. How easy it is to place blame on others And how difficult to admit our own guilt. All arising from useless false pride and ego. The need to be above everyone. The need to make others feel small to make oneself feel better. How cheap

@John Flores Belated Happy Birthday wishes

We are chilling with universal consciousness in every moment. We are a blade in the infinite grass. A drop in the ocean. One beat in the universal symphony. One with God. One love.

@Dodoster there is only one wave for you No wave...

My life involves first attending classes, then do work, Meditation for 10 mins in breaks Browsing in the cafeteria/canteen with my friends during breaks Spending time on actualized.org whenever free or during breaks Return home by late evening Eat dinner Finally when the day winds up, brush teeth, go to bed, struggle a little bit going to sleep, I am a light sleeper. Alarm goes off in morning, struggle to get some extra sleep, if not then login to actualized or respond to a call/text from a friend. Check mails before leaving home. Day starts again Repeat
