Behold: The solution for spiritual fulfillment

It was only yesterday, that i behold the key to spiritual advancement
So, at least the search has found an end and now i can really begin to concentrate on the approvement. There are no doubts anymore

Now it is my duty, to share my "solution", which is the purpose of this thread.

It is very easy, it will work for nearly everyone and needs not much time nor money.
Furthermore, the solution is in plain sight. I think, everyone who reads this, actually KNOWS the solution by himself. Sadly there is a big gap between knowledge and wisdom.

So, here we go.

What is spirituality? In my opinion, it is to become aware of the subtle forces and energies around us. Who thinks, that there is no astral plane, that telepathy is impossible and that a human has no astral body may or may not read further. Me, i proceed on the assumption, that all this is possible.

So, how can you become aware of the subtle energies? It is so easy, you only have to LEAVE THE MATERIAL WORLD! No, you don't need to die, i am not mad.

What binds you to the material world?? So easy: Your hopes, your wishes, your thoughts and your sexuality. And all the muscles in you body that are not relaxed. You have to give up all this!

For example. If i like to have an espresso. I like the strong and sweet taste, the flavour and in this moment my body, me, what i wish, LONGS FOR this taste. So i am totally unable to do one single step to forward concerning spiritual development!

But me, at this moment, my tongue does not long for this special taste. Because i had it when i got out of bed! Nevertheless, i LIKE the taste of an espresso. So, however, i am unable to go one single step...

So, what to do? I have to learn, that the flavour of espresso is NOT GOOD.
You may achieve this insight through many means: You can drink so many espressos that you don't like it anymore, you can rationalize the feeling, telling yourself it is only illusion, that means nerve signals. You can say, it's too strong for me. All these methods have in common, that you suddenly do not have any desire anymore for coffee.

So, coffee was just an example. You must assign this logic, or behaviour or whatever to EVERY WISH you have! Some are hard to tackle: The Wish to have friends, the wish to feel love, to feel sex to be admired to be loved, to live in comfort, to have money, to have insights, to learn, to see the next soccer-match in TV, to get ESP, to ascend spiritually... EVERYTHING! Plus, you must relax your body and your mind.

It is so damn easy noone does realize it: YOU WILL DIE! And no material thing, may it be knowledge or money or friend can you take you with you. It is that easy. BUT, for sure if you now do fear the death, you will not do a single step to enlightenment. Not one. The fish who longs to get out on the land must leave the water.

Sadly, there are subconscious wishes. Things, that control all of your thought and actions, things you normally never realize. You must know yourself, to get rid of these. It is that easy, but it is very hard, for some people.

Yesterday, it occured to me that i did not have any wish any more, whatsoever. May it be, that my wish was completely satisfied, or that i just don't like it anymore, just like smoking or drinking. Friends? Nice to have, but really necessary? Love? I loved so much during my life. (and have a stable love) And i am well under thirty...

And suddenly i SAW. And i KNEW, this is not just temporary, it is the truth. Simple and in plain sight.

Some negative aspects: You actually lose your sexual desire. It is necessary. You maybe need much longer to become aroused me, i don't care. Also, to others, you may seem to be without lots of emotion. No need to cry, just smiling and wise If you did lie a lot, and you dont want to give up the illusions others have of you... your choice
You will also note, that you are under complete control of your body, your thoughts, your emotions, every muscle...

It is strong

All my love

Good point we gotta get outta this fear mindset, that something one says or one thinks is wrong, I would say some actions are surely wrong. But thought and emotions desire and fear of ones desires are fine I would think, as long as one can admit them openly and without fear of being judged, I would say if you cannot say something to someone anyone, then its probally not a good thing.

Hi,
You raise some good points. Much of what you write however has been on here many times before. Not only that, pick up any Zen book and it is in there. I can see what you're doing though.
Most people on here know the material world is a distraction.
I have one problem. You say there are negatives... this kind of contradicts the whole point of enlightenment and the fact that you believe these are negatives gives weight to the fact that you have a long way to go.
You should still be able to feel elated and happy once 'enlightened'. Not only that, sexual actions should be embraced and fully understood... not lost.
In my fragile opinion you have depression and are not actually enlightened.


Edit cos I missed a comma.

Nice guess, but no, you are wrong

Nevertheless, interesting what people think, when someone states that he is not interested in sex anymore

edit: you think everything that exists is positive? Yeah, in this case we have different opinions

Hi,
I understand the sex thing, many people have the same ideas as yourself but I disagree. It's innate and felt godd when we were cavepeople and feels good now.. it's about controlling the desires... not ridding them... which I guess is kind of what you say.
My comments on the negative aspects are merely pointing out that being enlightened makes you look at negativity in a different way.
I mean not to damn your post and i guess for people who are locked in the matrix (cringe) it is a good door opener.
