I'm 17 so I'm quite new to dating and everything. What I would like to know is, how do I approach a woman?. How do I come across the right way? What do I say? Damn this is difficult

@The Monk That sounds like an awesome plan dude, I can be your wingman haha. @username I watched some of RSD Max, he just resonated with me

@The Monk I'm from the Netherlands! This is perfect dude, only an hour apart right?

@The Monk That sounds like an awesome plan ma man!

@The Monk Thanks for giving me the advice, I'm really working on becoming more authentic so that's already a step in the right direction. I'm a guy who likes to sit at home, do personal development, meditate and play counter strike. Even though I like all these things I just have this deep urge to get a girlfriend, to go out maybe, do new stuff. That's pretty new for me as I was always against that sort of stuff. More or less very afraid of what might happen too ( I still am). I want to try get into day approach etc, I have the feeling that might help me get better communicative skills too. I'm really sorry that you got rejected man, but I guess it's all part of the process. Learning and growing from it and trying it again next time with more courage and confidence. Good luck on your journey man, stay strong!

@Shin I've started the Trinfinity academy, you have did it too right? Has it been any good for you? I'm at Introduction part 3 now, 'Everything has presence'. Seems like a pretty profound course.

@Shin Thank you for this, so wise my friend.

After a meditation insight I found out that I have this deep belief that my consciousness comes from my brain and that I'm separate from everything else. How do I break this belief and experience the truth? Thanks for helping out, Max

@Shin Ye.. What am I.. I keep having this question in my head. "Where was I before I was born ?". I really find this question interesting. It gives me a weird feeling when I think about it.

@Leo Gura Never did self-inquiry before, I will try and start that habit aswell. You have a video on it too right? Thanks!

I listen to two metal bands called: Northlane and Erra. These two bands write about spirituality, every day struggles and motivation One of Northlane's songs that I like a lot is called Aspire. The starting lyrics are: "I'll carve my own name into the earth, I'll carve my own name into the earth, Don't tell me what to think, Don't tell me how to live my life, I'll make my own decisions and I'll pay the ultimate price". You can get a sense of what it is about, I can understand if you don't like this music but I have to kill the stereotype here, that metal bands only write about negative and unconscious things. Good luck working out!

I started reading self development books last year december and since english is not my main language I am quite slow on finishing books. My question to you guys is do you guys focus on one book mainly when you are reading or are you reading multiple books at the same time. Regards, Max

@Paul McCarthy Thanks a lot, this made me very aware of the fact that I do rush through my books sometimes. I've already thought of an awesome way to save the information, gonna buy a notebook for each of the books and in them I will write down the most important things and how to implement it nto my life. Really cool you answered on an old topic of mine, your tip is going to help a lot

Well, I have had this problem too. Legs falling asleep which was pretty uncomfortable. I switched to burmese position. Made it more comfortable with a couple pillows and I was ready for some hardcore meditation! It's a pretty easy posture, you should look into it

Northlane - Quantum Flux Set me free! Feeling all the love I swear that it’s in the air Leaving me, floating forever into infinity I can see the colors dance when I close my eyes Witnessing mysterious design I can feel my body rush From the love inside of me Can’t you see the joy of life is right before your eyes? Infinite bliss, infinite love Take a chance, close your eyes and just dream It sets me free Why can’t you see the joy of life is right before your eyes? Infinite bliss, infinite love Take a chance, close your eyes and just dream We walk around blinded like children in the dark So cold and so empty, how did this even start It’s time to remember what it’s like to feel alive Feel alive! Set me free! Set me free! Can’t you see the joy of life is right before your eyes? Infinite bliss, infinite love Take a chance, close your eyes and just dream It sets me free Why can’t you see the joy of life is right before your eyes? Infinite bliss, infinite love Take a chance, close your eyes and just dream Feeling all the love I swear that it’s in the air Leaving me, floating forever into infinity Quantum fluctuations project into the air Leaving me floating forever into infinity Infinite potential! Infinite potential!

@Annetta I have, when the fear passes you will feel so amazingly free and peaceful. @Annetta Good luck, I hope it works out!

@FirstglimpseOMG Hahah, you are loved too m8 @Martin123 Mhhhhhhhh..

I love you both.

Thanks m8

I have started trying to notice it too lately, before I was totaly unaware of my judgements. What I do is I just notice it and put my full awareness and attention on it. Then do that as long until I hit acceptance. I would condemn and hate my thoughts, emotions, judgements. But now I try to create space, accept them and love them for what they are. This has been a profound shift for me

@Jedd If you do care a lot what people think about you, watch the video that Leo did on it. I have been doing the exercise that he talks about consistently. Every day you say 'I am completely independed of the good or bad opinions of others." With your eys closed for 5 minutes. This works, I would say try it out

I try to work on growing myself everyday, I meditate 2 times a day and try to read everyday too. This is going great and I do not feel attracted to doing stuff like watching Tv series, masturbating, eating unhealthy, etc. But suddenly I have this deep urge to just do just do every single one of them. Is it authentic to give in and just give my self a break or should I discipline myself and abstain from all this. Thanks for helping out. I don't know why I even ask these things anymore haha, it seems like awareness is always the answer. When I feel weak though, when I feel 'unconscious' I just post these things because I have trouble bringing awareness to these issues. Thanks for reminding me! @Dingus

@Dingus I watched a couple videos of Rupert Spira, what he said fascinated me deeply. That consciousness is always here. This knowing is in everything we do. Afther that video I went to meditate, I got really deep and at some point I forgot who I was. This really scared me shitless and my heart started beating really fast this made me think I was giving myself a heart attack. How should I deal with this? It scared the absolute shit out of me

@electroBeam I have had this problem too. I worked very hard on working out my fears towards heart rate issues and my heart stopping. I thought I got over this but then suddenly it came back and I got frightened shitless. Couldn't sleep, couldn't eat, meditations were very scare because I got confronted with this 'self' that was fearful all the time. Now that I am working on this issue once again I have found that it helped me grow almost more than the first time I thought I got over this fear. What I have learned is that every problem or scary situation is an oppurtinity to grow. I can't always look at it this way but I try to. I would say try to look at it this way. Look at the judgements you make about yourself and observe what happens. Everything keeps changing. Remind yourself that this phase too, will pass

@Lawrence I will take a look at it. I'm currently reading Inner Engineering by Sadhguru though, really awesome book too @Lawrence You should! Sadhguru is one of my favorite teachers. He is great
