You are communicating very well. That is not the issue.. It is just that word choices are different for everyone. Since you haven't read any books, you may not be familiar with some common lingo, That's all. For examples, 'headlessness' is something that Douglas Harding uses and he indeed talks the same non-duality with a different word. But many people may misinterpret this word. But no matter how much you use a commonly understood vocabulary and how better you try to communicate, misunderstanding and misinterpretation by many people will be unavoidable... It happens to everyone and nothing can be done about it... . There are also people who pretend to not understand, just to defend themselves.

When there is no hope of finding edible food on planet earth, we can think about living by absorbing energy from sunlight. Let us make sure we take care of our eyes first... Once the eyes are gone, we will be missing all the beauties of the world.

Glad to see that people are becoming wiser/sounding wiser in this forum than before... A couple of months before, the nature of discussions was completely different.

Yes.. I feel hard to understand him sometimes too. But his word usage is different. .. I am going to try to learn his language, just for fun. ,, But I find some similarities in his choice of certain words and the words used by J.Krishnamurti.

I thought of something similar. A thread with certain restrictions..Probably something like 10 posts per day for a person

For many people, 'enlightenment' becomes something that they want to identify with.. They want to be called or labeled as 'enlightened', because the word has a positive connotation and sounds like a status. Spiritual path involves getting rid of identifications. So it is indeed an irony when people want to derive a sense of identity from enlightenment itself. This happens a lot and this has been always happening for ages.

Yes..but sometimes I have felt people may need that. .. Just to have friendly conversations, not to argue or debate about anything.. I see this forum as a growing spiritual community and people do need coffee breaks within the community

I think we need a separate sub-forum or just a thread for chit-chat and casual talk.. It should be more like sharing love and socializing..

Chat support, content writing etc in a company.. I also manage other people

oh ok.. Do you compose music? I need music for a poem I wrote..

I work at night and sleep during the day...

cool .. The profile picture you have, is that your real pic?

There is a thread called 'Enlightenment jokes thread' in this forum.. It is probably the longest thread. Try your sense of humor there and everyone can laugh with you.. But if you quote someone's message and say 'Baahaahaaa', I am not sure if others can laugh at that...

Do you mean this? Thats a joke... I asked you to file a police case on me and said that I will deal with the police and the case..

People who genuinely want to help others don't say 'this is the truth and you must believe me'... At the end of the day, it is up to individual.. I have written a book about enlightenment, by sharing everything that I have experienced and learned and the final chapter just focuses on following one's own light... My suggestion for people is to be skeptical and open-minded at the same time. And this has also been the way of many others too.

@Deep Ok good ... remember me and send me a message after 15 years and tell me what you think about enlightenment.

Kevin: Hey Martha, Did you see that new movie? It was very good Martha: What do you mean by 'good'? Do you know that it may not be good for some people? What makes you think it is good for me? Kevin: I am just saying that I enjoyed the movie and I am recommending it to other people. Martha: But how can you be sure? Kevin: You will surely enjoy it, just give it a try... Martha: You sound very authoritative.. Do you know you may mislead someone? What if he doesn't enjoy the movie? Kevin: Many people have said that it is a good movie too.. Martha: But how can you be so sure? If you tell me that the movie is going to be good for me, it is just your belief Kevin: May be.. But why are you taking it so seriously? Martha: thats funny! Hilarious! Bahaaaaa! I am just pointing out to your own words... I am not taking anything serious.. Thats just your projection. Kevin: Why do you always do this? Are you crazy? Martha: Well.. All these are your projections and assumptions.. Nothing to do with me! Kevin: Oh my God! You are out of your mind Martha: so be it...

Sorry, I can't do that.. Try going to people who claim to do that

ok.. thanks for sharing your observation

Can't you take it less seriously? People interpret things in different ways. ... Why take it too seriously? I am experiencing reality in a certain way and I am telling other people that it is possible for them too, and sharing what I know and understand. It is as simple as that.. If you have a problem with that, please file a case, I will deal with it..

@Shin thats a good question.. ... Just read the books. Fortunately, he is dead now!

@SOUL You are never ever going to find perfection in the usage of language from anybody.. In fact, you cannot expect any perfection from the world from anything.. I was reading Osho for many years.. If I was expecting such a perfection, I wouldn't have read his books. But he clarified certain things time to time, so people understand what he means. But at the end of the day, he always insisted on following one's own light. I myself try to be precise in language as much as I can. But still, it is only possible to a certain extent... At the end of the day, words are pointers and everyone in the spiritual path comes to understand that at one point.

The path of meditation - http://www.baytallaah.com/bookspdf/171.pdf My way the way of white clouds - https://www.oshorajneesh.com/download/osho-books/responses_to_questions/My_Way_The_Way_of_the_White_Clouds.pdf Empty boat - https://www.oshorajneesh.com/download/osho-books/responses_to_questions/The_Empty_Boat.pdf Just read these three books. Don't listen or read to any other guru until you finish these three.. Make it slow and enjoy reading the books, without feeling any hurry to finish them.. You will get more clarity on the path after reading these three books.Let me know how you feel after you finish those books. They are free download links... and people think he is a rich man's guru (he said that once, by the way. But with different meaning)

No.. he did not.. Kundalini itself is a concept only used in Kriya yoga. Sadhguru says Kriya yogis are those 10% who can actually live after enlightenment... The 90% people who will die during enlightenment, according to him, are not kriya yogis at all. And he further goes on to say that he even pegs down his own kriya yogi followers if they are about to reach enlightenment, so that they don't die! (in other words, he won't let them reach enlightenment).. You are not understanding what he says in the first place. As per my understanding and observation, you are not actively paying attention to details and properly use your discrimination when you read or listen to something. At least, in many of the posts that you have made in conversations with me, it is very obvious. This is actually a common problem in many people of this era because the attention span is less. You may want to work on it. Take it as a suggestion because you will save a lot of energy as a result.
