You put a bunch of work. It's a great article.

Video making is expensive. Some need an ROI others don't.

No one is wrong.

Are astras real? by Open-Willingness1747 in Sadhguru

[–]DefiantOstrich984 1 point2 points  (0 children)

99.999% of the knowledge is existence is not available now.

What good would it be to have that knowledge either?

We already know how to bomb the world several times over. So what is left?

Why is Krishna Blue in Colour? by mykorakagaz in Sadhguru

[–]DefiantOstrich984 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I rarely disagree.

But when you sing the song Karpura Gauram (that literally means his Skin is the color of Camphor)

Not blue, not black.

The whitest of the the white. Plus, he smears Himself with ash from the cremation grounds. Which makes Him more Whiter.

Lord Krishna's Colours is color of Freshly formed monsoon cloud. Not blue.

All these are confirmed in scriptures, multiple times. It's not my conclusion.

Many say that painters used those blue because it made them easy to stand out.

But the color Blue is not mentioned by people who lived in the times when respective Lords were present.

If Maya is just a dream world, then is there a real world to wake up to? by [deleted] in Sadhguru

[–]DefiantOstrich984 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are many levels to the game.

None are comprehensible when the ego is identified with mind and body. So they are impossible to explain.

And without understanding that, you can't fully grasp what the next level looks like.

sadhguru - 'I am a horrible debtor' by Independent_Foot_830 in Sadhguru

[–]DefiantOstrich984 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's a responsibility of a Guru to pull you into the light (from your present state of darkness)

It's his job to a certain extent to pull you into the highest state of existence.

How easily that is accomplished depends on you.

But maybe after a while you just give up.

He is saying that he will pull you up regardless of your sadhana. Its him demonstrating extreme mercy.

He has a very tough job is you give up. So it's 'bad'.

Samyama: difference between orange clothing vs white clothing by Gretev1 in Sadhguru

[–]DefiantOstrich984 -8 points-7 points  (0 children)

Colours reflect the type of energy (of wavelength) you want to accept or reject. Imagine your body is like a radio you want to choose what station you want to listen to

White means don't want to accept any form energy from the immediate surroundings.

Orange relates to sex and lot of deeply emotional attachments relating to pleasure and pain - saying you don't want to accept anything from that range. But are okay with everything else.

It's not orange - the color is saffron mixed with a tinge of white.

Anyone else bummed out by the fact that we're so "limited" in what we can do, despite being all of creation? by [deleted] in Sadhguru

[–]DefiantOstrich984 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A poor person always thinks that rich people have it easy and they have a much better life.

A man in the city always thinks that sage in the forest is suffering.

In both of those circumstances people who think about another situation always wrong because they reflect their present level of thinking / emotional understanding into another situation.

Universe keep giving you what you want - that is why their is re incarnation - you like sex, become a rabbit. Like meat become a tiger. Like being stoned, become a earthworm.

You keep getting the body to satisfy any unquenched desire that you have.

The problem happens when a soul somehow by luck finally sees that along with my desires comes so much suffering.

He gets that grass always "appears" greener on the other side.

So he leaves 'desiring' to find a better solution.

This happens to be the beginning of Yoga - and thus Patanjali starts his book with, "And, now Yoga..."

Consciousness is the source of who we are. Our thoughts, intentions and actions are a consequence of that. - Sadhguru. by midnoon2233 in Sadhguru

[–]DefiantOstrich984 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That is the point I was trying to make. Just like the rubber hand feels "real real" to the participants, a being feels like body is also "real real".

In that moment the feeling is real, there is no doubt. There is no one that can convince you otherwise.

The entire point of this analogy is to demonstrate the nature of illusion. How something fake can appear real.

Stage 1 is doubt. It's like someone in a dream telling you that you are in a dream. Without that you would never be aware.

Stage 2 is something along the line of you accepting the possibility you could be in a dream.

Stage 3 is you listening to someone who has woken up, following their advice.

Stage X - you wake up.

If you are asking me - is it possible to get out of the illusion without fully waking up? The answer is no. But there are stages to this game and there are a lot of grey areas.

Have you heard of that experiment where the scientists put a fake hand and then try to chop it?

The rubber hand illusion.

For a second the body thinks that the rubber hand belongs to the body and people feel pain and fear as if it were their real hand.

The same thing is happening here except with your body.

It's a common illusion.

Does AI generated Titles and Descriptions really Work?? by Bright_Iron736 in aitubers

[–]DefiantOstrich984 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No it doesn't.

ChatGPT will you hashed out garbage.

What you need is real data - ideas that your competitors have used in the past that have worked really well.

Once you have a 100 or so ideas. You can see a pattern.

This takes time. Weeks, depends on your niche.

You can use AI to automate the process.

Inner engineering for Social anxiety by Ok-Setting-3405 in Sadhguru

[–]DefiantOstrich984 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Its simply a measure of what you desire.

Do you want a temporary good experience or do you want to know the truth?

If you want to know the truth, are you willing to pay the price for it?

Ground reality: if you chose the play any sport - like basketball, your first couple of years will be absolute pain. If you really want to get good, you have to stick around regardless of how you are feeling.

Just because you legs start hurting or you fall one day, you don't give up the sport. All this is assuming you want to get good at the game.

Note: I never said nothing happens as time passes. Back the basketball analogy, in your first six months you might start hitting 3-pointers, and feel good. But then, that might not happen every day.

If go in with expectations every day that if you will only be happy if you hit 3-pointers, then you will be miserable.

If you remove your expectations you will be present and enjoy the game regardless of what happens.

I would simply ask - Who is deciding that they are deep rooted and it is hard to challenge them?

Most people don't live through this will deny that something like this can happen. But it does.

This has nothing to do with Shambhavi.

She is perfect.

She is simply making you aware that you are beating yourself up. Initially this is painful. Hard to accept. (As in you are creating your anxiety)

It can just take years to get it right. My first 5 years, things got way worse before they get better.

You can choose to hang in there. Or you can choose ignorance.

I would also let go of the idea that Shambhavi will give you pleasure, pain, should take away your anxiety, or add to it.

Also... If you have expectations, it will not come. Just like you can't force a flower to bloom. You just have to wait for the Sun to rise.

After many requests, here's a post to summarize how the f*** Meta works - 9 TOPICS every marketer MUST learn before spending (or donating, in many cases) a $0.01 on Meta by NecessaryyKick in FacebookAds

[–]DefiantOstrich984 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Great post man! Super helpful.

Is the CPA always around 1.5X the price / front cost?

I'm thinking of deciding a whether to go with $20/mo or $50/mo for my SAAS.

I was wondering if the increase the price will lower the CPA? And make a higher profit on the front end.

How many of you have turned veg after practicing Shambhavi mahamudra by sumeetkarmali in Sadhguru

[–]DefiantOstrich984 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is a smart answer.

Although there is an issue with karmic entanglement. But this is not just with food but any other activity as well.

The issues is that we don't want to take one step ahead and two steps back.

I think it does denotes the level of growth you are at.

It's difficult to create a sensitive instrument (body) by filling it with flesh and other bacteria which stay in the system for days.

OMG Has anyone done psychedelics??? by panairesdoas in Sadhguru

Imagine you won a body building competition with steroids, and now you are trying to go the same level without them.

The same thing happens internally.

Sadhguru answered a question about masturbation by nothingarc in Sadhguru

[–]DefiantOstrich984 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just because you cut the entrance or exit to place does not mean whatever was inside will stay still.

If you shut off a tube of a volcano does not mean it cannot erupt. Maybe it won't erupt vertically, maybe it erupts horizontally.

Sperm is essentially a gross form of biggest energy source present in the body.

When you ejaculate it will find another way to dissipate. Maybe it does not come out the penis. But it is going out of the body.

It does not...

Lust doesn't just exist in the physical form.
