Everywhere there is a sexual dopamine trigger to the mind.
What is the relevance of erotica to milk? Seriously? Are we so sick mentally that we should be sexually seduced to buy and drink milk? #Spirituality #enlightenment
Romancing with a single partner at intervals isn't a hindrance unless your next step is Nirvikalpa Samadhi itself.
But the societal obsession over sex is leaving individual minds in a state of chaos, that is non-conducive to spiritual practices such as meditation & mindfulness.
We see many articles even in mainstream media that multiple partners are okay, pornography is okay, and so on.
Wonder what will be the quality of the mind that is fantasizing over bodies all the time.
What happens if an evolved race like human manipulates this pleasure quotient to indulge repeatedly in all seasons & escape the deliverable, reproduction.
For those who claim sex is essential & natural, please understand that for nature, reproduction is essential, not sex.
We have cheated on nature when we indulge in sex just for pleasure and carefully escape reproduction. Good for us, though!
For one or two children, five decades of sexual indulgence. Terrible productivity for poor nature. #Spirituality #enlightenment
Except for some physiological benefits that are super-amplified by media, you gain little or nothing from sex. Still, it is fine, and not a problem until it cripples you psychologically. #Spirituality #enlightenment
Sex is not a hindrance to spirituality. The constant thinking and hyper-obsession over sex knowingly and unknowingly are the hindrances.

Is it not utterly stuck in duality to designate some experience as “illusory” and other experience as “consciousness”? True Non dual view would seem to need to be present everywhere, both in I and not I. #Spirituality
Non duality cannot be spoken/talked about, because the moment there are two “I’s,” or even just one “I” talking about any experience (whether labeled ‘illusory or ‘consciousness,’) or concluding what would be the ‘true non-dual view,’ “you” are right back in duality again.
Non-duality has no view. And is actually not ‘present’ anywhere, since its Nothing appearing as Everything.
It can't be discussed, heard, grasped, known or understood & any pointing to it or discussion about it, no matter how clear, is non-applicable to being in non-duality.
Why the majority of spiritual people go to gurus to get Moksha which is only a belief because the soul in this state merges in God and the person can not come back to tell his tale but only few try to meet with God which is reality & is describable? #Spirituality
is good to have a sincere and enlightened Guru, one who takes us from “Gu” darkness, to "Ru" light. A Guru cannot give Moksha; a Guru can only show us the path. #Spirituality
The enlightened master can only share his enlightenment, his realization, his experience and therefore, just to go after a famous or popular Guru, like a herd, is not going to get us enlightenment or Nirvana or Moksha. How will our Soul become one with God? #Spirituality
According to Hinduism, why did God create man?
Creation of Man i.e. Adam is a Abrahamic concept. #Spirituality
Male, female, neuter - nature of all biological beings & humankind is part of biological nature. In Hinduism we never ask why did God create humans? (as if we are the sole purpose of creation as in Abrahamic religions!), the question should be : why did God create the universe?
Verb “create” is problematic for us as is the noun “God.”
As per Hindu logic creation means making something from raw materials. One can't create something from nothing! A logical impossibility!
So for a Supreme Person to have created a real world, there are only 2 options:
Please do not fall for fancy non-dualist theories that you need to do nothing. Please do not flatter yourselves. You will reach nowhere except that you will be imagining yourself to be enlightened. #Spirituality #Enlightenment
And when reality strikes which will, you would have done lots of psychological damage to yourselves.
Please Beware!!!!
You must put effort in negating all that which is making your self-reflection, vichara & dhyana difficult. #Spirituality #Enlightenment
As far as Yantras are concerned, myths abound. Time to bust them, offer clarity. #Vedicastrology #astrology
Myth 1: Yantras can solve any problem
Fact: Yantras can help solve any issue when rightly used with a mantra. Yantra isnt' the only solution or remedy for your specific situation, there are other remedies available based on your kundali. #Vedicastrology #astrology
However, many people feel lazy to do remedies, or don't have time for it, or are not serious about following remedies, for them the easier way is yantra. #Vedicastrology #astrology
