Lol that's it

Have you guys noticed that enlightenment experiences come easier when you are sad or depressed? Or am I the only one?

Yeah it feels like the ego is less stubborn when i'm sad or depressed. I love being alone btw.

This happened about 10 minutes ago. I was in bed falling asleep to one of Leo's old videos, I was still awake though. The video was, how to become enlightened : the exact steps, or something like that. I watch some of Leo's old videos sometimes because you can always take some new insights away. The video was like 15 minutes in and I was kind of falling asleep but still awake and aware. Then Leo says something like, what you really believe you are is the perceiver of these perceptions. At this point I had that big AHA! moment. Then I remember just surrendering completely and every thing just started to vibrate, I was so scared that I started to resist, but I just told myself to let go and the vibrations got really strong. Then I wake up in a dream but this dream is exactly where I was laying down in my room where I had fallen asleep but I was paralyzed. I remember asking myself no way this is a dream, this is so real. I was still listening to Leo in the dream. I slowly gained control of my hands and I took off my headphones, but I could still hear Leo. I remember thinking,"LEO BROKE ME!" The remainder of the dream was me trying to call for help clapping my hands because I couldn't speak. Then out of nowhere I wake up. Sorry this was so long, let me know what you guys think about it, thanks.

Have any of you guys ever experienced ego death in a dream? Last night I was dreaming that I was walking down a street and all of a sudden this anxiety hit me, like I knew something was about to happen. I felt like I was dying, but not in a physical sense, it was like reality was slipping away. I immediately woke up in panic and dreaded going back to sleep because I was convinced it would happen again.

Do you "spiritual" seeking people find that it's a lot better better to be alone?

Does anyone else feel like they're floating when having "enlightenment experiences"?

I've recently come to the epiphany that no one and no thing around me is "actually" there, they are just part of my senses and my paradigm. If no one is physiscally real, that means there is no awareness in them since they don't exist, so is "my" awareness the only awareness?

I just felt infinity for like 1 second oh my god

?it's amazing yet peacefully terrifying.

Is there any truth to what teal swan is saying?

What's up with auras? They real? Or are they some new age hippy stuff? If they are real, how do I train myself to see them?

Two questions... 1) Can I listen to music while doing strong determination sitting? 2) Do I leave my eyes open or closed?

AMAZING SONG ABOUT ENLIGHTENMENT!!

Does an elightened person identify with something or do they identify with nothing which is what makes them enlightened?

So this "I" isn't my consciousness or the ever present moment, the I simply does not exist?

10 min ago, I had an amazing experience, I want to know if I'm on the path towards enlightenment. I was in my bathroom, sitting on the toilet(not pooping) while listening to a song about enlightenment, very soothing relaxing song. Anyways I started thinking about how no amount of external stimulation will ever fulfill me, I started laughing so hard after truly realizing this that I couldn't breathe for a few moments. I then started getting into the current moment and realizing that the concept of a perceiver is false since there would have to be another perceiver for that perceiver and so on and so on, then my ego tried getting in the way but light was shined upon the ego when remembering the fact that my ego is just a made up character and I'm tired of playing the part. This let me go so much further, my mouth was open in awe and I felt this peaceful sensation in mouth and various other parts of my body.(not genitals) I then stood up and turned on the sink to the hot water. I waited until the water started to have smoke around it(hot) and put my hand through it for 15 good seconds, I let go of my whole body and had 0 resistance, I focused on the sensations but did not judge, and I felt no pain whatsoever , just a tingly sensation, then I suddenly snapped out of it( or into it) and I suddenly realized how hot the water was, my hand still kinda burns right now, so yeah am I on the right path or was this totally irrelevant? Thanks for the help!

Leo had mentioned something about different levels of enlightenment in one of his videos, what levels are these?

Ayla, are you enlightened?

The ego loves problems, this whole angel and devil thing you've made in your mind is a "problem", don't make this into a problem cuz your ego will feed off this crap.
