I have been lately doing more meditation where i focus on my nose and feel the breath going in and out, and this helped me in increase my awareness and my ability to observe thoughts as they arise from in my daily life. whenever the thought arise, i notice it and once i notice it disappears, and i m left with a sense of peace and ease. Even though, i did notice how much some of the thought are compulsive and negative too. After the negative thoughts decreased, my mind has been flooding me with "positive" thoughts or more like sending me thoughts that i like or would prefer to engage in or think about, and they are nice, but at the end they are thoughts. But i m trying my best to not dwel. I was wondering if anyone has any idea about the state that i go into when i observe a thought and it disappears ? that state of peace and i call it state of bliss. Even though, that i m able to to observe the thought before getting triggered, would that also help me in releasing fears and problems in my life? do you suggest to continue with such practice? or to move forward with something to deepen it? And do you consider it, an escapism technique or enhance duality? Also do you suggest any book, youtube video or so on that practice to understand it more? Thank you

It is not your fault that you still didn't experience love, because all you are referring to about homosexuality, is sex. You need to experience more your emotions, and essentially, true love (not attachment). because you would know taking herbals won't make you stop loving a person and sex is just making that emotion physical, making love. A few herbals or energy practices won't alter your feeling of love, because it is a genuine positive and very strong emotion, from which arises all other emotions. Open up your emotions, so you can see and feel life.

Genuine or Mind made (Fake): feeling, experience...?
Shad282 replied to Shad282's topic in General Discussion
it is similar to when you see something and you believe it is real but it is actually imagination/hallucination. or when you feel energy on ur skin while actually it is mind made sensational feeling. or when you hear someone calling your name, while actually no one did. Same with when you observe that there is no thoughts, while actually there are many, but u are actually dwelling on a thought that you are mindful and that there is no other thoughts and ur mind is empty. Mind fake experience, can infect all the sensational faculties, and mind is one of them.- 29 replies

hey, I practice vipassana, even though lately not having time to practice it.... anyways my case is, when i m really feeling and focusing on body, a really painful sensation arises around heart, more like a circle or lines around it (around the middle of my chest where the heart is located). Also, when i investigate other parts of the body (with focus), there is a string of pain (dunno if it is a meridian) coming from my middle finger and moves up my arm to chest and to that circle of pain. usually that string of pain comes like waves of pulsation going into the heart. this pain arises most when its been a time, I didn't masturbate and when i m focused on my body. when i masturbate, the after it goes and decrease and thus i won't feel it anymore up till a period of time. feeling that feeling of pain and trying to deal with it, with watching/observing allowing it to be... didn't work much. Also, the more i focus that pain is very tough and strong... and thoughts of "it seems i won't last much on this earth...etc", it is not like i fear death, i don't mind it but yeah. I do have some kind of throat pain (when to doctor and said there is nothing) that arises from time to time when i focus on my body but that is maybe a different story but currently this is stronger any ideas? any help is appreciated. Thanks

yes exactly what i was looking for, and yes the mind is able also to gain control over the feelings and emulate feelings that are not genuine, which make it difficult to actually verify conceptualization of the state. and as you meditate more and grow in consciousness and awareness, the mind skills and abilities improve and its ability to use its function in your developed state of awareness. now, i m trying to anchor more and more my awareness and focus with breath before and sometimes when scanning the body, and sometimes when observing the thoughts. Also, i m trying to be aware of my own awareness, which will allow to easier to notice that you are not your thoughts. Also, i m trying not to focus for a long period on one place because the mind becomes dull and so conceptualizes what u are doing. so i keep moving my awareness, so i have a long period with awareness. Thanks.

Yes ! this : "the next important step is to not attach to the concept, or you might perpetuate the pain because you associate healing with it." how to know if the mind is conceptualizing the acceptance/allowing/ let go ? and to break free of it? Thank you!
-
yes, that is the kind of response i was looking for, the quality/genuine focus in terms of awareness experience. thank you, the more you can provide information, or link to me sources, would be grateful ! Happy new year !!

How to not Hate but Love and Enjoy Sorrow (negative feeling)?
Shad282 posted a topic in General Discussion
I have been coming to a conclusion that, running to meditation or any other "healing" techniques is just another way for the mind to escape what is and build a resistance to it, which win turns creates persistence. So, my conclusion seems to be going toward loving and enjoying what is even if it was negative as much as sorrow, which will allow us to experience it, and thus, there is no resistance. and maybe it may heal the permanent reaction to the memory that is causing sorrow and such. Please, don't throw concepts like (accept what is, allow, let go), please, provide explanation in terms of how to, what state of mind, or a feeling state that is needed to reach a Genuine feeling of loving and joy, not just a fake one that is like: "oh i love you, i'm enjoying this" but deep down we hate it soo bad and want to be positive. And please avoid techniques that are used to make us focus on something else to feel happy and joy as a result of escaping the negative feeling and ignoring it. Im looking for something that would dive deep into that feeling and embody it to love it and enjoy it. Thank you!- 29 replies

if you believe in it, it will exist or else nothing really exist?
Shad282 posted a topic in General Discussion
Do you think that nothing in life is static and everything is relative? In other words, if you dnt believe in chi/energy, you won't feel it. It could be that the belief is what creates our own reality, what we feel, see, hear, touch, smell, taste. And nothing really exist... we just inherited genetically and got taught beliefs that makes our own reality and put us with people with same of those beliefs that reinforce them and thus lead to make it a very real reality. Nd could be that the chakras, energy/chi, meridians...etc just another packaged reality, that we can choose to believe in out of many other realities, all is real but nothing really exist? Are there some static stuff in the world? That foes beyond all possible realities? Or could a majority belief be made a a static to all other possible realities? Does nothing really exist.. because all realities cancel each others out and what is left is emptiness or just another belief? thank you -
Thank you for your detailed post, suggestions and care! Actually, i have decreased the sugar a lot in my diet and so stopped meat, except for fish, from time to time. and keeping myself away from restaurants and ready made food from supermarkets, and a lot of what you suggested, but unfortunately i m far from USA and costco, but i ll try to apply most of what i can from your suggestions, since a lot of the suggested isn't accessible or high price. But again thank you for your suggestions, i ll keep a copy of your post on my drive.

hehe, still false assumptions because you are limiting your analyses. you should give more attention to what is called culture, society and that other people exist beyond your own culture and society. so what i say, behave on this website doesn't imply the same logic of someone in your society. And just because my parents nag on me (which i don't mind at all, because it shows they care) doesn't mean, I live with them, and that they paid for my MD consultancy, there is no logic chain in your analysis. Also, nagging doesn't have to be face to face and same house. I m a masters holder and i have done many researches and tests and such in my field of study that is way far from spirituality which render your assumptions of me not having anything to do, or earn money..etc, False. Apparently, I don't behave like a teenager, but your stalking gave you wrong assumptions. Also, I wonder why you are spending that much of time, in digging up my threads and profile and also trying to analyse and assume stuff that are far from reality? do you have a lot of free time to waste on strangers over threads on the internet? because your participation in this thread is not constructive and more of personal. Thanks and take care.

It is not joy around the heart, i m describing it as pain, and i don't consider it something negative, and i m not asking people to help me out of this thing as if it is dangerous but seeking their opinion and point of view. I said there is a sensation of pain there, and was wondering what is it, what it means and such. Not having something to be attached to in my life or to live for, doesn't mean, i should be denying pain and everything should be ok, joy and happiness. Everything is there, pain, joy, sorrow, happiness, but if i ll be told "you are going to die in few minutes or so", i won't really panic and cry, I just welcome it, more like "okaay", because i don't see much difference between existing and not existing (toward my own self, but of course for others there is a difference.).

Online, because it was free, and in my country no TCM and is consider illegal. No i m not kidding, i ve just asked for fun and to know what it got to say about this condition and such, herbs and such are prescribed but yeah, not really gonna ship and take those stuff (other than that they cost a lot). I went to the MD for the eczema on face, (i already knew that it was eczema, i diagnosed it myself and was using the right med for it) but parents were nagging to go check with the doctor. Also, it is not that cool to walk around people seeing skin issues. No, it is not childish, (you have no right to assume that). I said what i really feel, I don't fear actually dying, because i don't have something i m really attached to in this reality in order to worry about leaving. Well, i do care that some people, family, friends, may feel sad, but they will move on with their life.

i have asked online tcm practitioners and i have been told i have yin deficiency. "Playing with energy, meditations etc. on your own when you don't clearly know where your body-mind starts from is not a good thing at all. You'll screw yourself up." I do love to experiment and i don't really know how am i really going to screw myself up ? death? I m okay with it, I don't really care that much about the consequences

Genuine or Mind made (Fake): feeling, experience...?
Shad282 replied to Shad282's topic in General Discussion
Yes, it is a matter to know how to differentiate in our daily life: " Sometimes we are experiencing phenomena directly, other times our experiences are filtered through words and conceptual thinking." -
So, accodring to this: 1. Lactobacillus AcidophilusThis probiotic strain is the most well-known as it is used to culture yogurts and other dairy foods. A recent Japanese study showed intake of lactobacillus significantly improved symptoms of eczema and created a decline in cytokines, which are inflammatory immune cells. Means that eating dairy products would increase eczema ? I eat a lot and everyday, dairy products, yogurts and such.

It is seborrheic eczema spreading. I had it checked a month ago when it was on my face and it is know to spread on other areas of the body. But now it is spreading where the pain i felt around the heart when i used to meditate on scanning the chest area (it's been a year on this pain). this pain only appears when i focus my awareness on that area.
