There was an idea to fast, do not eat till two o'clock. My son stayed at home, demanded to cook spaghetti at 9 a.m. and that mama eat too. A good start XD. https://youtu.be/ohR8pfK-vxo?si=sQ2NhGk5VAS2iLRD

Last weekend I went to visit someone I had never seen before. For some time we had been corresponding with each other and spoke on the phone a few times. He lives in a remote place in eastern Poland, among valleys and mountains. In a rented, old highlander house, together with ten horses, two dogs, two goats, a pony, two cats, chickens and a rooster. He is very involved in the life of the local community. For example, he engages in actions aimed at reducing light pollution around nearby houses, for an apparently trivial reason: so that it does not disturb insects trying to build nests in those places. To a “normal” person, such behavior could look detached from reality. In a way, we were connected by spirituality, although he himself knows nothing about it in the classical sense. He has not read anything, studied anything, listened to podcasts, or practiced any teachings. He simply spent his entire life surrendering to the current of life. Through Switzerland, France, Paris and Poland, life threw various experiences at him — good and bad. And he did nothing other than accept every change as it was. There is no fear in him. Instead, there is complete, unshakable trust that life will take care of him. And every time, without fail, life truly did so. I must admit that I felt jealous. I felt that something was being fulfilled that we all dream of and search for on the path to enlightenment — and that this was not my story. There was frustration inside me and a rush of thoughts that I sometimes could not control. How can one live so carefree? How can one be so “irresponsible” about one’s own future and its planning? My ego kept trying to launch a frontal attack, looking for mistakes, trying to give lectures about the basics of financial security, the sense of safety resulting from stable income, savings, owning property, possession, planning. And he did nothing other than constantly repeat that he simply knows that everything will be fine. Today he is here, tomorrow life may throw him thousands of kilometers away, together with the animals. The only thing he is certain of is that it will definitely be okay.

Hi Admins and Moderators. Could you clarify what’s going on with the disabled chat feature? Right now it seems impossible to start new chats with anyone unless you’ve reached level 9. I can only message people I already had an open chat with. Is this intended? And is there any way to reverse this so we can message new people again? Thanks in advance.

I find myself incredibly sexually attracted to men and completely repulsed by the vagina. Conversely I find myself drawn to strong women and repulsed by men when it comes to other qualities that have to do with the ego or personality. I am very sexually confused...it's eluded me all my life. I've been taking the tantric path to try and pinpoint when and at what point I get aroused. What should I do so that my desires don't overtake me...or take me down a dark road?

Hey everyone. A couple of days ago I randomly came across this song and somehow it stuck with me. I usually listen to totally different music and I am not into spiritual or esoteric tracks at all. Still, something about this song genuinely touched me and lifted me up. So I felt like sharing it. Maybe it will resonate with one or two of you as well. What I really like about the message: it reflects a lot of what I have learned on my own healing journey. Yes, we do have to look at our trauma. Yes, we have to face it and move through it. There is no shortcut around that. But we are not defined by what happened to us. In the end, we still have a choice. A choice about who we want to be, how we relate to our past, and what story we continue to tell ourselves. That freedom matters. This song reminded me of that. Maybe it will do the same for you. And yes, it’s an AI-generated song, but that doesn’t take anything away from it. https://youtu.be/fVdykeC1PsI?si=-eT8mseY8jLYTGlm
