Karma Yoga, enlightenment through work in the world, might be what you are looking for

@Harikrishnan Thank you, your comment made my day

Self-Inquiry as others suggested. Anapanasati (mindfulness of breathing) can be really good too.

Life purpose

Courage “At the edge, breathing deep, map is burning at his feet. Voices call him to turn back, takes the step, opens up. Thorns cut right through his shirt, throws it down, to the dirt. Fear is crying in his heart, march continues in the dark. Beasts are leaping to his neck, shield goes down, nothing left. Here Man stands, naked, bare. Not knowing. Ready to die.”

Up, up the spiral! This is really great. I feel like just now after reading the Spiral Dynamics book and watching hours of Leo talking about it, I am starting to get what the potential is here and why I was so drawn to it

visualize. It has the same effect as having it. Just imagine that you already have what you desire Abraham Hicks' approach could help you here.

@Elisabeth Good luck with anything that comes your way

as the author says, build up your breath retention to 90 seconds first, and than slowly go for it

Thank you all! Any tips on how to best get started? (let's say I go with Python)

Truth “I’ve had enough of your bullshit! Just tell me the truth!” “The truth? What does that even mean?” “That, which is. That’s what it means. That, which is for sure. 100%. No doubt. That, which is clear. No argument possible. That, which is raw. No layer. No meaning. No sense. That, which is given. Stable. That, which doesn’t need your opinion. Your permission. Doesn’t need you. That, which is whether you like it or not. That, which you can do nothing about. That, which is unchanging. Ultimate. That, which never stops. Never turns out to be not-that. That, which is anything. Everything. Nothing. That, which leaves no space for not-that. That’s what it means. The truth. Tell me that.” “Oh, that! Ok… here goes nothing!”

"It's better to actually not eat anything, than eat the wrong thing and pay the price for it." - Markus Rothkranz "Often times we are in a hurry to get coffee, tea, sugar... whatever it might be to give us more energy, we forget that there is an abundance of it everywhere." - Paul Chek "The best exercise in the world is the one you are willing to do!" - Paul Chek "Laughter is the most healthful exertion." - Christoph Wilhelm Hufeland "Breath! You are alive!" - Thich Nhat Hanh

@Shiva @Arthur Thanks, guys. I have very modest ambitions so far, and I think Python will be a good start.

The ones I met where massively dogmatic. It's not a non-dual path. You can still a lot about bhakti with them, if you can manage not to get pulled into the dogma.

Kriya Supreme Fire is a beast! Go for it guys!

I am more than I appear to be, the world's strength and power resides in me!

Sounds like unprocessed emotion... or inner fire! Really, it's probably just emotion. Try breathing into it and see what wants to come up

@Preetom @Rilles Thanks guys. I don't think I will get the 1000 page one, but I'll check it out

@Shanmugam Awesome quotes. Can you recommend a book by Osho? There are just too many to choose...

If there are any Eliott Hulse fans out there, check out this talk!
