We are usually aware of our EGO, which is to say, our primary personality. The awareness that is aware of this personality however, can never become an object of awareness.

In order to be aware of change, one must necessarily be unchanging.

When you drink alcohol or take certain drugs (provided they don’t trigger your pain-body), you may also feel more relaxed, more carefree, and perhaps more alive for a while. You may start singing and dancing, which since ancient times are expressions of the joy of life. Because you are less burdened...

Don't try and be present all of the time, not only is it impossible, it may cause frustration and disappointment. Just be present whenever you remember to be, if it's only 10% of the time, then that's perfectly fine. Presence isn't a goal to be achieved, presence develops the more we become used to ...

I have to admit, I'm a stickler for truth and clarity. So, I feel compelled to point out that the Ego is the Conscious aspect of the mind, the part that we use on a daily basis and constitutes a healthy personality. The Ego can become unhealthy, and can only become healthy again through acceptance a...

I've stopped looking for answers and have started to just let things come to me and recognize why it's been brought to me.

The end of seeking is a great place to be, while always being open to new ideas. I love it.

BTW, I don't pray.

My question is: how to get rid of this kind of thing? This inner dialog, inner criticism, inner judging. And at the moments when I am very stuck in my head how to make the step out from it. How to find that inner peace, which won't be disturbed by any bad or good scenarios. You can't get rid of it....

Thanks, I will being checking this out, I've always had a fascination with the NDE.

We are currently in the middle of a Global paradigm shift. Shifting from the current Post Modern, Transnational Socialist (Globalist) paradigm to a Traditional Nationalist paradigm some might call Post Secular. Ironically, this is a global awakening. The powers that have benefited from the old Globa...

The pain body, is the emotional manifestation of the ego. So, in your regard at least, the anger and the propensity for drama, is the pain body. The pain body is a manifestation of collective and personal suffering and therefore can only feed on further suffering. It's natural desire is to look for,...

He could watch the same movies over and over and enjoy them like he'd never seen them before. It's interesting though, as far as I can tell, spiritual development requires a certain amount of memory in order to facilitate development. At least in order to reflect, digest and assimilate.

The world as a whole is statistically getting safer, there has never been less war, although regionally, it might be getting worse.
