Sat-Chit-Ananda (spiritual state)

Priority request. "In the stillness, all occurs of its own accord, autonomously and spontaneously. Sound has no effect on the silence that persists even within the sound. The state is traditionally and historically referred to as sat-chit-ananda (silent bliss)." -- TLC, Hawkins.

Priority request: Not as a thought, but as a inner realization, knowingness.

avoiding marriage and having kids at all cost

Request: During a video lecture, a man asked Doc about marriage and kids, to which Doc replied: "avoid it at all cost". Apparently realizing the man didn’t like the answer, he added “well, humanity needs to procreate somehow”, and then gave a more conventional response.

statement: consciousness lacks the subjective "I" until age 3

Request: Doc said that consciousness enters the fetus during the 3rd month, but he also told that he became aware of himself at age 3. My first memories are also from around age 3. Can it be said that infants are run purely by instincts until their consciousness "wakes up"?

Request: A book by Philip Kapleau which serves as an introduction to Zen practice for many Westeners. I was surprised by the fact that it hasn't been calibrated yet.

T/F: the spiritual ego is a source of mental illness

Request: I've seen several sources claiming that both depression and addictions have a significant element of focus toward "inner regulation". To what extent though?

appearance is not essence

How is it we can manipulate our appearance?

dreams that happen the next day

Request: I have been having dreams, it could be about anything or something, someone, and I happen to see that or it happens the very next day when I wake up. Can you explain this phenomenon or is it coincidence?
