Anonymous asked: Is it better to be selfish and happy with your life without taking into account the effect it has on others? Or should we be selfless and make others happy, and find happiness in that (even if doing so makes us unhappy)? I've been struggling with this question for a few months now.

Tantric Angels
I just recently acquired these two quartz crystal angels. Here they are depicted standing beside my mercury shivalingam, perched on a zippo lighter.
Someone once asked Meister Eckhart what angels did in heaven. His reply was “celebrate!” They bask in shared divinity and give rise to joyful spontaneous expressions of god.
So now these two angels are the joyful guardians of my...

My Guru
Sri ShivaRudraBalaYogi
With a statue of his guru.
Jammin’ on the guitar. He can play like any instrument. I’ve seen him do guitar, drums, piano, harmonium, and others.
It’s funny how much he’s smiling in these pictures. He actually doesn’t smile that much but when he does it’s pretty amusing.
His website.
For whoever wanted to know!

freespiritedtacos-deactivated20 asked: Do you think that everything that happens in life is supposed to happen & that every situation is neither good or bad- it just is- that every thing that has or ever will happen was sort of predestined to happen... or do you believe that people create their own lives, that everything that surrounds us, every situation was created by our own minds and the positive or negative energy we all give...
Anonymous asked: i have really bad back pains that only happen when i move suddenly or move my back awkwardly. do you know of any healing practices maybe having to do with the root chakra that may help?!
Can I just say...
I love you all. I have only ever received the most kind and sincere questions and comments from everyone who has chosen to do so.
This world can be bleak and it can be beautiful. But so long as we are all sincere and open, it will always be what it needs to.
Namaste, sangha.

Anonymous asked: So, recently I was pulled out from college due to excessive alcoholism and some other bad ... things that happened out of depression. I'm home, not knowing how the fuck to get myself back on track and out of this 6 year long sad rut. How did you just... be happy. I dwell on everything that's sad, and that's just getting sad

Be prepared...
…to be bombarded by Osho’s teachings. Of course there will be others, but right now I’m taking a nosedive into the bottomless pool of tantra. Going and going and going and going….

Osho Everyday Meditations: Day #1 - Illumination
The moment you are illuminated, the whole of existence is illuminated. If you are dark, then the whole of existence is dark. It all depends on you.
I’ve just recently got into Osho’s teachings. They are excellent but they can be misleading without the right stability. At least that is my impression. I picked up a book of one concept to contemplate/meditate upon per day, for 365...

asterismaux asked: I was wondering how you came to reach all your convictions. I'm trying to figure out what I believe and where I fit, and so far I think I'm doing okay, but I feel like I could have so much more information and culture handed to me. I want to be well-rounded, you know? I hope you understood the intent of this message. Namaste.

Karma Will Always Lead to Karma
Good karma, bad karma, both are just reactions. One is positive, the other negative. Awareness, the essence of non-reaction, is neither. Happiness is the territory of good karma, pain is the territory of bad karma. And for awareness, Peace is the territory. The peace that every worldly pleasure is but a shadow of.
My god, did I get a lesson in karma this weekend.
First of all, binge drinking...

impossibubble asked: I had the most amazing adventure yesterday, i went with my love and his little brother out into the woods on their mom's property. I had been feeling joyful abandon all day!! So we frolicked around the familiar parts and then ventured further. We ended up discovering a huge meadow in the middle of nowhere that none of them had previously known about, though they've lived there forever....
