I'm contemplating Mahayana. It seems to be true, or at least gives me really really good feelings. And feelings don't come out of nowhere ya know. So what do you think, mahayana followers and non-followers?

I rarely come here it used to be I'd give advice myself here but I need something now. I am given to solitude for hours a day. I have no job, I'm awake around 12 hours a day and spend only 2 or so hours a day with family. So. How do I find happiness when I feel really really lonely which comes sometimes? Usually people go to friends, I have abandoned the idea of friendship it brings me more happiness this way. So, my dad is a close-minded person and my mom is fluorided. My brother is a meathead and my sister doesn't have a lot of empathy either. So what should I do now, seeing that all roads people usually take are closed to me. Please help me out. Pic unrelated.

I have suffered immensely today. From solitude. It was horrible and it doesn't go away no matter how much you talk with or about god in your room. My mom is fluorided 100% I can not feel any deep sense from her she literally gives me the oh ah ok oh ah ok oh ah ok, whenever I speak about god. Fuck. My sister is always busy and neglects me and my brother is a meathead. I just wanted to rant no deeper message except, if this life is such pain for those that are happy and seek happiness, there must not be a hell because this earth is hell enough when it hits those that desire and seek. There is no need for a hell. Just become a seeker and you will experience hell in this very life. Lol but seriously.

I desire conversation and discussion with deep thinkers only in this thread. Let us begin.
I sort of jumped out of religion as a teen and never got into it ever again after that phase. But now I believe in god again and deeply so. I live spiritual life to the fullest with six core practices that have shaped my life and being and helped me regain control over my inner and outer life, coupled with two strong beliefs. God exists, and enlightenment from material reality exists. Six practices are: celibacy, meditation, prayer, non-lying, asceticism, and solitude. These have taken my bliss to the max and have come quite naturally as I progressed in meditation. I don't know what I would do without these eight things. Please, share your thoughts and god bless.

Here is a blog-post from me, I hope you can add your own thoughts on this.
What is god? God is the supreme soul or being that produced everything else and is beyond it. He's not bound by space and time, or thinking. He cannot be grasped by the mind. Does god have a soul? God is a soul. What is the breath of god? The breath of god is pure spirit, which he has given to us men but also all other living beings. What is the true spiritual path? The only true one is the one which many ancient Indian sages have realized, and which has been realized by Jesus. The path of unity with the divine. How do I know I'm on this path? You know when you no longer produce thoughts but they just come. You no longer regret anything you do. You no longer act with any reasons, like a child, or a mad person. This is how you know you're on the path, these are some of the signs. What happens at the end of this path? You see god. How? Through your heart, the seat of your emotions, and your essence. Is there ultimate bliss in this life? Maybe, I'm not sure. But something close is definitely possible even if ultimate bliss is a thing of the afterlife. What is the afterlife? The afterlife is the place where the physical body is no longer needed or used. This is the state in which your soul has finally abandoned the physical body. What is the physical body? The physical body is the baggage you need to transcend to get to the other shore of reality. The body is basically the anchor that keeps you at the bottom of the lake of existence. Once you learn to transcend it through asceticism, and prayer and meditation and so on, you start to acquire deeper inner happiness that has no equal. Thank you for reading, friends. Hoping to get some thoughtful replies. God bless.

I have with hard spiritual work distilled the truths about god that I have found until now. God is not a spirit. He's something beyond spirit. An entity, or being, he exists truly. Other things exist, but not as truly as he does. That's what I have found. He's the first before the first, the last before the last, the smaller than the smallest, greater than the greatest. And so on. But he truly exists. Other things are but shadows compared to him. So, worship should be directed at him only, because everything else is illusion and untrue. If you worshipped something else, the prayer wouldn't enter into infinity, the infinity of god, but into something temporal, bound to time and space, and thus finite. This is not correct worship. Thoughts on all that?

I just prayed for like twenty five minutes and did around an hour and a half of meditation today and now I feel a huge stream of bliss and love and happiness inside of me. Just wanted to say that.

Define what spirituality is and what your personal spirituality is.

So, what is more important? Righteousness, or wisdom? "Without wisdom you don't know right from wrong perfectly"
Really? Don't we all already know what's right instinctively?
