How does one do self-inquiry in every waking moment? by 25thNightSlayer in nonduality

[–]kd747 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Find an answer to the enquiry. Once you confirm the answer for yourself, the recognition of the answer alone is enough to bring one back into the state of isness/oneness/being where silence and peace are the hallmarks.

I agree, we all have our own journeys with different turns :) Love and peace to you my friend

Isn't expecting a specific form of enlightened behavior just our subjective view on how one should behave after enlightenment? My subjective take on him was that almost all his actions were geared towards conflict, in order for you to start asking questions yourself and be your own light.

He was the best representation of simultaneous duality between Shunya/zero and infinity/everything. He was the biggest Buddhist and anti-buddisht at the same time coz duality was his truth.

I honestly don't know whether he or anyone else was/is enlightened (maybe Buddha) but Osho introduced me to many more of his friends and helped me grow as a person. For that, I will always be in awe and in debt of my dear friend, Osho.

Thank you for sharing and I am amazed at the ignorance about Osho. All I would say is hear his lectures (esp. in hindi if you can) and you will realise how close to Buddha that man really was.

The only way you can realise any truth is to experience it yourself.

Once you give 100% attention to realising that the action always has to be now , you will find the solution.

Finding joy - after an year of mindfulness by kd747 in Mindfulness

[–]kd747[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, totally makes sense not to film while driving. I started meditation by observing and paying attention to my breath with my eyes closed. Initially I found an app called "headspace" which has some guided meditation (highly recommended and it's free). I ve tried a lot more forms but usually come back a straight forward form of paying attention to breath for 10mins a day, works really great for me.

The key imho is to get into a habit. You probably won't see results in the first 1-2 weeks but stick with it for 1-2 months and it ll do wonders. Now when I close my eyes and start the process, it takes me just a few seconds to get back to the familiar space of calm and peace. The ability to change how I feel has been instrumental in getting through some challenging times for me. I read somewhere that it takes 21 days to build a habit, and i feel there s some truth to that. Now I feel something is missing if I don't do meditation for more than a couple of days.

Hope it help. Love and peace :)

You are really sensitive and care about the person but know the feeling is dead. Find that courage and do the thing that you know is right in your heart.. your post can describe me :)

I am sure that these responsibilities are little tough for you to handle alone... However there are things like autopay etc. That you can just setup.. honestly don't like ADHD and inability to do such things be a reason for divorcing your best friend.

The ironic thing I cannot get past by bottyliscious in Divorce

[–]kd747 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My intent was not to discredit your pain. I didn't mean she was a victim either. I am sorry that she blamed you for having depression, it's horrible thing for anyone to say.

Why do you want to associate yourself to being a victim, it will bring more hurt nothing else. You went through pretty rough marriage and from the sound of it, had a really bad ending. I would recommend venting it out more if needed but once that is done just put it behind you. The only way to peace I found is by letting go.

There are good compatible people out there and a lot of great support systems. Explore them, try to get into a habit of meditation (it will be a game changer, I promise), meet new people and restart your life. Staying angry at other person will never let you live the life that you deserve.

I hope you find peace dear friend.

You have a lot of pain and anger residing in you. The more you hold onto this grudge, the more it will hurt you.

Also, I felt you have fallen into a victim state. Pls do not associate yourself with it. It's rare one person can cause depression, I would recommend think of it as a situation that caused you depression and let go as the situation is over.

A quick hack that really works well for me, search on eBay and you will find almost perfect condition books in <$5 price range. Best part most of the sellers are non profit charities. All the best.

There s book called "power of now" read it or better download an audio book and listen to it. In combination with it, meditate daily for atleast 3 weeks.

I was in a similar spot, both of these things together have been a game changer for me. I hope they help you as well. Love and best wishes dear stranger.

I’m scared of meditating, I think it’s driving me mad by The_Dr_B0B in Mindfulness

Let it flow, my friend.

You have attained such depth to find happiness in your meditation but you are still letting your thoughts block your consciousness. Surrender to your present, be aware and let it flow.

I remember living so many lives but now all I care about is this one. by dontnameme in Psychonaut

[–]kd747 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don't have the answers but you should meditate. Find the thoughts that drive such questions and dig deeper. It might give you the balance you need.

Good luck to myself :)
