what is your opinion regarding releasing attachments to what makes you happy and/or from which you derive an identity, a purpose from. Ending up purposeless and not having a reason to exist... no identity to preserve and no thing or person to get happiness from. Then the question is, why to exist in such reality if you have nothing to get happiness from or a reason/purpose to live for? on the other side of the equation are pains that we resist and we are averse to. how are you going to handle living with them if you have even have no purpose or something to live for. Ending up with pains and nothing to live for.

it is been 2 months on this. i get high and good sometimes and then falls deep down. the higher i get, i get lower and lower and the period becomes longer. Feelings not coming from anything i m aware of. not sure where it comes from and result, maybe doubts regarding self and triggers.

I m not sure it is overloading. but this state or dunno, happens from time to time, and is happening often, finding myself at a purposeless world, and finding no reason to live for and nothing making me happy.

It is not about something recent, this been something that happens often. purposeless, worthlessness and not real motivation to do anything since not able to enjoy or be happy doing anything, and not finding that "within " happiness and fun in doing anything. and working/doing, something i dn't like and boring and in a none motivating environment...

I m not sure how well is it to change how you think in order to adapt to what is, and accept what is, and not do what you like and keep doing what you don't like. Being present is more about allowing thoughts rather than changing them. as far as i know. thoughts remain and not change, but you release attachment or aversion to them. Happiness comes from within... yes that is why i m saying it is an unbalanced equation: if you are going to release attachments, as in what makes you happy and you don't have a source for happiness "within" at that stage/phase/gap where are you going to be ?

But why would you need things in your life, or do fun stuff ? what is the purpose for doing something fun ? isn't Fun mean to entertain yourself to get happy doing or watching..etc. regarding the present moment: it is possible to be present with things that makes you not happy. As in being in a place or you have to do something you don't like. it is now and here and not from the past but still not fun.

how do you approach a trauma or issue that occurred in the past? do you focus on the now, present moment, and stop being reactive emotionally to the thought when it arises in your mind and so stop to emotionally trigger you and healing occurs? or you try to understand the situation that happened in your past and be objective about it and so the thought ceases to arise and healing occurs ? In my own perspective, i see understand the thought aka the situation of the trauma objectively without victimizing yourself and blaming others, or whatever occurred would actually allow you to use the same analogy to unlock multiple thoughts that used to occur into your mind and so understanding one situation (new perspective) would allow you get past many thoughts and learn a teaching. Since emotions are common, and what changes are the thoughts. dealing with non reaction to the thought means you have to deal with each thought through each emotion by not being reactive and so on, which is quite a lot. What do you think?

(A thread to share some thoughts not to argue) No matter how much people get deep into spirituality, they always remain in prison. A prison that might be wider than non-spiritual people but it remains a prison. Whether a daoist, buddhist, sufi, christian, astral, light...etc. Each has its own custom prison, size may change, but remains a prison. A prison that is made of beliefs. beliefs that sound liberating, wise, sometimes true but they remain Beliefs. Belief may help us to see a truth but only its truth and nothing else. They are like the bars of the prison, one after the other blocking us from seeing the whole truth and what is beyond them. Coming from a small prison to a bigger one, may feel liberating, freedom but for how long? And what is beyond that? Are you ready to drop your beliefs?

As you can see in the below, they are planning to do head transplant, which seems to be promising, assuming that it will work. how would this fit spirituality, energy and mind and body relationship ? would that mean that the person who would get his head into another body, would get the same meridian energy blockages of the new body, or his mind will remap the new body with the blockages he had due to his psychological issues and traumas? does that mean, that the mind is where everything exist? and is the one that causes blockages on body affecting the flow of energy ? in other words, the chakras, the heart and everything is in the mind, and awareness, spirit is in the mind ? and dealing with our issues on my mind level is enough to reach enlightenment ?

a period after death? The person who died, obviously died because of illness or some sort of damage in his physical body, aging...etc and he was not able to stay alive and function with it. what another soul is going to come and do with a dead not function body ? it already cannot function physically, hence result of death in the first place.

I m not sure how far this is logical. Possessing another body is possessing the whole body which includes the brain aka another person's brain wiring, habits, mind, thoughts and a whole new person. it won't be the same person. it is like being reborn again. other than that. would be easier to do a transplant and risk it, and have a normal life rather than waiting to reach that very developed stage in consciousness.

I was wondering do you think that in almost all traumas, there is no an offender and a victim ? There is always some kind of responsibility in which the victim creates an environment for which it attracts the offender? (on different levels) and would you think forgiveness in traumas actually work ? because forgiveness is a way of blaming the other person for what happened. Like when something happened, you go like, i forgive you for what you have done, which comes in way of blaming the other person for what happened and we remove our responsibility of what happened, thus leads to no healing and moving on to happen. or else you can just throw forgiveness around and done you healed your traumas. what do you think ?

In my opinion, punishment is not the solution and never was. punishment would cause the perpetrator to be hurt even more and would not make him a better person. in the first place, the perpetrator, received pain and was hurt as kid and was acting out of his pain that resulted in doing a harmful or illegal thing. Punishing him for being in pain and acting on it, would just add more to that pain. what is required rehabilitation from the pain to help that person not do the same harm again. and teaching the people who received the pain and such to forgive and such.

I m not on this website to argue or debate, i m here trying to share what i know and learn what other people know, if you want to argue and have debates on beliefs or such, please not on my thread. All i said, is that if we consider that law of oneness and the law of attraction apply in all situations, then how it fits this situation. from a spirit perspective, it is just a game and play on here, it is not so serious as your mind is living it. and yes it is possible for aligning with such situation, it is all about the lesson/teaching that will eventually learn. it is its own game and free to choose what it wants to experience within the limitation of this earth reality.

I get you but i m not linking that to karma and sins and such. I m saying that the spirit wanted to gain experience or learn something from this life or specific situation and so it aligned a goal to achieve on this earth. which in the case of the 2 years old girl.... the girl as a spirit before coming to materialization into a human body it chose to come to this reality to experience such kind of "energy situation" to learn what it came to learn and such. not because of a sin or Karma from past life. I mean, a lot of people do believe in the law of attraction, as in you attract people that mirror you (and they are you aka law of the one) and your issues, which means they hold same energy, in order to trigger each others, heal and grow and get improve. But when things come to things that involves rape or kids or so, people do not feel right to make the person who got hurt and taken advantage of, have any responsibility to make this situation take place.

Maybe you can ? the soul already chose that life, and this family and all what was going to happen, prior to coming to life in the body of the 2 years old girl. or the soul chooses what it wants to learn or the energetic environment that want to experience and so align itself with that situation and those people. (this assumption is valid, if we consider law of oneness or law of attraction) what do you think?

but how would you teach forgiveness ? A lot of times as i mentioned forgiveness is seen as you are blaming the person and so you forgive them for what they did, and in this way forgiveness is some kind of separation. And a lot of people speak about forgiveness, but no one effectively teach it. I can just throw i forgive that person and feel like i forgave him, but nothing changes or heals. and i think it is because of a sense of separation and blaming that is in it.

an immortal ? who?

I would suggest to learn to relax and do meditation where you relax each part of the body. masturbation is fine, if not excessively made and there is no guilt feeling or so. you don't have to force yourself. because what is causing the masturbation could be related to some problems and after they are resolved your body will manage itself concerning sexual energy. not sure about energy is lost during masturbation, because energy is infinite and everywhere, you are it, and everything is energy. you won't deplete yourself of energy but it would lead issues to arises which will lead to blockage to arises and would make the flow of energy not steady. same will happen after a long time not masturbating. Good luck

that is why u don't worry about integration but u allow your emotions to be and not dwell and react to them. then your emotions will integrate by themselves, you don't have to worry about the process in terms of how, when...etc.

The way to heaven is realizing that you are already in it, the now, you always were in it. If not, it is the mind. As long as you think you are in hell and trying to reach heaven, you will never reach it, because it is not far or you need to go through a process to reach it. It is there, It is you. In other words, you realize the presence moment, the now, the heaven and you will notice how thoughts and emotions arises, you allow them to be and then they integrate.

Lately, I discovered that my meditation was actually hacked by a mind function that conceptualizes and creates an image of an experience and faked my experience of reality. an example: the experience or state of no-thoughts, at first it was a genuine experience and it felt really nice, during meditation. but after a while i discovered that, during my practices in the past months, I wasn't actually in that state that I started with and i was actually in a thought of no-thoughts. In other words, I was living in a conceptualized image of what i experienced first time i started the practice and the mind automated the process by attracting my awareness into it. which got me question a lot of my experiences, and ask you in this thread: How is it possible to identify whether the experience, state or the feeling we are having is a result of reality and not a fake, mind made image? When i say between myself, i forgive that person for what he did or give love to a person or deep inside pain, how to know whether it is coming from a real feeling, and not from a conceptualized dry image of forgiveness or love? Maybe it is by looking for the intention behind it? In buddhism, they say, you should approach pain with equanimity, and not with aversion, because aversion=resistance= persistence, but wouldn't you try to be in equanimity in order to heal (get rid) of pain which is by itself aversion but in an indirect way? or when you try to allow things to be as itis, but you are allowing it to be as it is, because you want to get rid of that pain (which is not allowing). Thank you,

I have been noticing that different people use different tools, through which, they get over, or face their issues and fears. Some of different tools so far I knew about: - The use Lucid dreams through which they face the issue in dream world, - visualization. - The use hypoginia state - NLP (Neuro-linguistic programming) professional or psychotherapist. - The use the present process, in maintaining focus on the now. - observing thoughts. What are your technique to release your triggers and problems ? how it works for you? did you try any other technique ? and you ever wondered that some technique may fall under the "escapism" way or maybe dualistic approach ? Thank you for your time

Hey i have tensions, stressed nerves on face, head and throat, it is usually cause by using a lot of the mind and focusing, frustration and stress... I still have stressed nerves on throat, but i m doing this and it helped in other area. The reason is that it teaches u to relax and have a relaxed concentration. give it a try.

can you elaborate more about this "neutral meta-cognition" ? how is it achieved ? Thanks
