Meditation is when the i is not. 

This is an all day affair. 

I do not meditate. There is just meditation.

careful with that. Meditating while lying may quickly turn into relaxation as it is so easy to fall asleep or half asleep.

It can be pretty interesting to meditate while you're extremely tired or relaxed.

 

I’ve had some strange experiences with this. A couple times a thought would come up, and I would doze off for a split second and the thought would turn into a dream, it was really bizarre lol.

Good that you stopped caring about formal sitting. It is not about formality but about the presence. I can do it when walking, running and etc. at this point. Careful with trying too hard to achieve smth - even trying to surrender. Your worst enemy is desire to be Enlightened as fk.... That is HUUUUUUUUGE trap! I am amazed how you don't battle that or at least I don't see that you do. 

Dude, you got smart!  Seriously.

Yeah. Thought/desire and all its implications imply psychological time. 

To end that movement “time in becoming” implies entlightned being.

@Leo Gura Best of luck...This video has a lot of meaning for me. You talked about enlightenment a lot but never covered nirvana.

A lot of lessons in this life has to be learned with mindfulness.

To my boy Leo, your teachings are PURE GOLD! Seriously I hope your meditation will bring you to the collapse of self. I hope you can fully let go of your worries about Actualized.org, because you have already made a huge impact. As a token of my appreciation, have a gold Leo. Summer is coming and I will be joining you on the meditation challenge :). Good luck to anyone else who is doing the challenge, see you on the other side.

Correct.  Rest as Awareness is a metaphor.  It’s a pointer.  It’s the best pointer we have.  Adya is spot on.

This has been a long-term goal of mine for the past 6 months.

Vipassana centers offer longer stays - 20-40 days for advanced practitioners meeting certain criteria over lengths of time. I am working toward that end because I want the structure of the center. 

Another part of that goal is working for myself, so I can take time like that off at my discretion. Obviously, Leo already does that.

This is the next step for someone who has done a few 10 days retreats and maintained a daily practice.

Nevermind. It's a month of researching 5meo and mindfulness rather than formal sitting. 

Maintaining practice outside of a formal sit - meditating with your eyes open, so to speak - is very important. The extended formal sits are effective for rewiring, in my experience.

@eskwire You ain't really done Vipassana till you've plugged some 5-MeO up your butt ;)

That's a little secret Goenka forgot to tell you about ;)


You are God. You are Truth. You are Love. You are Infinity.

I'm excited for you Leo! I wish you all the best.

I've been having those thoughts for a while now.. that letting go of your baby is the last thing bringing you to that tipping point. deep down I know I should do the same. I'm massively afraid of it. huge respect for finally doing it. I hope one day I will have the momentum to surrender as well. 

we all cheer for you. remember to fully surrender, that always seems to be my 'leverage'. all the best from my little heart! <3


whatever arises, love that

@Leo Gura Good luck,Leo. Just be careful, safety is the most important thing. I hope you won't drop your viewers after this. Get this balance that you wish for. It might help you also when working with people in person.  Seems like it is a necessary pre-phase for it.
