Start by just sitting with thoughts and feelings, this is called mindfulness.

Into the Deep
.
.
.
Shaken to my core I found
the subtle essence of all things.
I came back changed,
unable to describe my harrowing journey.
It wasn't pearls that I found, deep in the ocean,
It was myself.

I don't consider anything temporary to be happiness. Looking for happiness in temporary things is the cause of suffering. It can't be acquired like an object. It's our nature but we've forgotten. That's why self-realization is so important.

God can't be described by words, that's why a direct perception of Him is necessary. This is only possible with a pure heart that's free of worldly attachment. Cultivate dispassion for the world by realizing that there's no lasting happiness and every joy begets sorrow and vice versa. #nostr #grownostr #plebchain #coffeechain #meditation #yoga #sadhana #enlightenment #hinduism #krishna #jesus

While you're asleep you have no problems, no pain, and no suffering. What changed? Isn't it the ego that rises during the waking state that causes these problems? Get rid of it for good through self-enquiry #meditation. #grownostr #nostr #plebchain

2023-09-27 16:07:31

Self-realization implies the problem and solution. We've falsely identified ourselves as the ego, when we're really the witness of the ego and other mental activity. If the mind rises, then something must be aware of it. How are you the ego when it rises and falls? It isn't even present during dreaming and deep sleep states. How then can that be your true self? #grownostr #nostr #plebchain #coffeechain #bitcoin #btc #zap #yoga #meditation #spirituality #jnana

Why is it easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich man enter the kingdom of god? Because a rich man is attached to the world and #God requires our whole heart, mind, strength, and soul. #bible #christian #christianity #scripture #jesus #wisdom #growstr #nostr #religion

2023-09-27 03:32:00

What is bhakti #yoga? Chanting the name of God. This path is known to purify the heart and get one ready for a direct perception of #God. Why is a pure heart so important to God? Because He wants all of you or none at all. Doesn't it tell us in The #Bible to be hot or cold, and not lukewarm? You can't love God and the world. No man can serve two masters. If any man love brother, sister, mother, child more than ME... he is not worthy of ME. These are all expressing the same truth. #christianity #christian #scripture #jesus #religion #hinduism #growstr

2023-09-27 03:19:08

Surrender in a spiritual sense is giving up the ego. The passage in The #Bible that says "Be still and know that I am #God" is about giving up the ego and merging the individual self with the eternal self. When the mind ceases to function (through God's grace), one can perceive Him after their heart has been purified. It even says in The Bible that the pure in heart shall see God, and to be converted and become as little children. #christianity #religion #jesus #scripture #growstr

2023-09-27 03:01:57

Everyone is seeking God albeit in different places. Our souls get tired from the misery of the world. This is what the parable of The Prodigal Son is about. Once we realize the world can't satisfy us, we seek to return to God. Returning to God means uniting our individual consciousness with eternal consciousness or "surrender". It's also interesting that the word yoga actually means "union" for the same reason. #bible #christianity #yoga #grownostr #wisdom #growstr #plebchain #nostr #god #religion

Think about it, the mind rises and falls, but you exist regardless. You can't be your mind, yet it says "I Am". This is why self-inquiry leads to self-realization. We're identifying with the wrong self. There's nothing to gain or achieve. That's why people are miserable trying to acquire more things, thinking it'll make them happy. I'll point out too that the mind doesn't even exist in deep sleep. Did you stop existing at that point? Of course not. The Real "I" is always there as a witness to everything.

Have you noticed that the mind is the cause of suffering? When the mind is quiet, there is peace. A good meditation is to ask yourself "who am I?" and follow the thought back to its source. This is called self-inquiry. Also, something is aware of thoughts, which means you aren't your mind. The mind is going outward through the senses, but the prize resides in your heart. Objects can never lead to happiness, yet everyone is chasing them. It's best to focus on the eternal self within. I hope you don't mind the advice btw. I'm just trying to help 🙏🙏
