Playing video games wisely

[Riccurdo]

@Ima Freeman Thanks for reply!

I totally get you about the wasting potential part. I have the same issue with not finding my life purpose. That's why I've become curious why I do get scared of not doing something important in life. I think it mostly is a fear of accepting what it is and surrendering yourself to life. If your heart really wants to play let it play! Also, you can contemplate why do you think it hinders your spiritual journey if you play games? Where did you learn that? What if you learn profound wisdom through gaming? Think positively!

Don't bullshit yourself.

Just game. Don't try to make gaming some wise thing. Gaming is stupid. Stupid fun is okay.

Of course there are wiser things to do if looking for truth seeking. Maybe for some person it actually raises one's consciousness? My point of it was to approach gaming in positive light and not blaming yourself for it or putting some  negative labels on it. Awareness is key too.

@Riccurdo The only label you need is FUN.

It's okay to have FUN.

I think that if it makes you scared to game because you get sucked in, I feel like it should be a fear to explore. In the end in life you want to do the things that make you happy. I understand that truth seeking is the most important thing you can do but burning through karma is also important. Maybe you allow yourself get so sucked in the game that you play many weeks straight without doing anything else and then after you feel like taking a break from it. Life is not this fixed straight river, it is flowy.
