    Why don’t we see 👀👀👀👀 the Danger of being 👀Held in a small narrow space 👀
  • Be aware of your conditioning. Be aware of your inner conflicts. Reflect on the origin of these conflicts. The entirety of my being is conditioned. Any choice I make is thus conditioned. My thoughts, beliefs, preferences... are all conditioned. Understand the consequences of being conditioned. It leads to pain, suffering, inner conflict, wars... There is a sense of separation that fosters competition, "I am better than," "I am less than," hatred, rejection, attachment... Conditioning persists because we are not fully aware of the dangers of it. We are deceiving ourselves. Do not rely on external sources (teachers, gurus, wise persons, experts...). Any attempt to eliminate the ego is the ego itself. Do not try to solve the conflict or escape from it, just be aware of the conditioning. Don’t do anything, or you will reinforce it. If you just remain with it without reacting, it will dissipate on its own.

  • Greatest danger is hearing supposed knowledge of Absolute Truth from someone who is not connected with one of the bona fide disciplic succesions of Vedic knowledge , as is this man.
  • I am; A constant transformational evolving evolutionary indigenous being to all there is.

    To question all authority seems to be out there… to truly question authority of any kind ultimately means to acknowledge your conditioning without acceptance, or resistance of any kind… freedom begins when we acknowledge and observe our conditioning and with that observation, conditioning ends
  • It’s just like a child who is let out into a mansion! The child then makes up stories to feel himself safe. That’s it. The mansion is the creation. And everyone is a kid here, including the saints, Philosophers, scientists, artists, common people and animals too!

    Non action to arising within our consciousness is intelligence. Wow....Buddhicitta in a sentence.
  • Yeah...we dream it all up in our own mind or call it whatever....if consciously or not...or half half. Who created thought and from where thought does arise...??? When u realize u just do.
