how do i find my spirit guide(s).....:eek2:

Imagine what it would be like if you could...

• Have direct contact with your higher self
• Discover your powerful inner wisdom
• Uncover the answers to your deepest questions
• Reveal amazing insights into your future

Imagine what it would be like :

- To be ordinary
- To not fantasize about having special powers
- To be insecure about the future
- To forget what you have learnt about death, and just die and find out what happens
- To not have any questions

Curt... do you mean letting go of your ego. If you remove thought and stop worrying about the future and the past and become one with the present you can connect?

First of all, you cant let go of the ego. I had done that once, i said to myself "no more effort", i was doing effort to be effortless, so there is no way to let go of the ego.

Im NOT saying forget past and future and let go of ego. There is nothing to say but i will try and make some sense to you, use the ego as much as you can - use it for as much effort as possible, all you will get is "spiritual experiences" which dont lead you anywhere, you can boast about them with your friends and family but thats the only use of them.
You need to realize on your own and by yourself that the effort of the ego cannot get you anywhere, and that you are completely lost and hopeless.

If you are a bit intelligent you will say : "how can i use the ego to attain to something beyond the ego?", there is nothing to attain to, you can only lose your search for enlightenment or whatever it is.

The reasons so called masters and enlightened ones give you methods and techniques so you are able to realize that you cant get anywhere with them. By reading this post you will probably not understand, or you will understand but deep down there will still be an effort to do something, because you will say "how is it possible to just be effortless??", so you do as much effort as you can.... and only through the useless effort you realize that ego cant get you anywhere.

I see exactly what you mean, you probably don't think so but I think I do. If you use effort to let go of the ego you can't. I can compare it to headaches... if you can forget the fact you have a headache it is gone but trying to forget the headache only makes the headache worse because you are dwelling on the headache. If you can focus on something else like art, a tv show or music and then you will realize after a while that the headache is gone because you put your focus somewhere else. Same thing with the ego... if you try to eliminate the ego you are dwelling on the ego which will get you no where. If you try to eliminate all thought you may get rid of the ego.


To say going down these paths that people in here are going down doesn't make sense is wrong. One of the best things you can do for your mind and body is to have fun. If having fun is not harmful to yourself and others then having fun meditating is good for you. If you have fun researching this even though you may think this type of behavior is not right and people are getting rich off our money is wrong, I am still having fun and enjoying it which will reduce my stress and make me a happier being.

Forget the ego, the ego is not the problem. The ego is needed, its needed for use in a society so we can function properly, if we had no ego then how would we understand each other?

The problem is not thought either, your problem is hope... buddha says desire is the misery, no hope is your misery. You must be hoping that through letting go of the ego or through so called self realization, that then you will be a transformed man. I bet my life, that you want self-realization or enlightenment or whatever because you want to stop being reborn again because if you only had one life, what the hell do you do with "self-realization"? nothing... you cant do anything with it... but see this past life thing is just a belief, if you remember your past lives (ASSUMING they exist) then you would not desire enlightenment or letting go of ego or whatever...

The "buddha" is just like you, he lives in a hopeless state and you live in hope, its why they say "buddha is present", because future is only needed if you hope that the future will be better... there is no hope.
There is no God, no afterlife, no enlightenment, no buddhahood, no transformation, no bliss, no love.... if you still want to hope that "self-realization" is gonna transform you, then go ahead... but it wont

oh and people who meditate and do not realize that there is really nothing to realize, dont have fun in meditation because there mind keeps telling them "youre not enlightened yet" "you have not achieved" "you have not become a buddha, you will be reborn again" etc etc, with these thoughts you cant have "fun" in meditation.
Do meditation techniques or be in meditation, but do not think that you will gain something, you will not, if you dont believe me then believe your so-called masters...

Doing this will get you listening to your self in a way that most do not know exist or even contemplate letting go of your brains process.

Once you have mastered the art of listening to ones self, then you may start listening to your guides with ease.

Forget meeting your guide, start listening to the guides, and start following the string that will bring you everything you need and possibly what you want.

Practice till you discover the next path.

I think I understand what you're saying Meditation. How is that differ from what women call intuition where we listen to our inner selves that tell us when something isn't right or perk when we sense danger and flee? Women have always had that 6th sense when things aren't right with their world and they seem to sharpen when babies enter their world. I have such a sharpened intuition that tells me when family across the miles are sick, I have the ability to call at the right time. How is what you're explaining here any different, or is it?

It's not just women who have this intuition it is all beings, here we have no boundaries of sex or race, for instance I know when people die that I know and I am a male. But your right about when a female of any kind including cats and dogs and other animals after birth sense this kind of thing more strongly (It is possibly the separation of the same energy and matter that causes this connection. and isn't it wonderful. ), it is not limited to just women but to all beings who are living matter and possibly beyond.
