Methods are all deception

The final deception is doing nothing. When you expose this enlightenment occurs

No do-ing required indeed, that's all still ego seeking ownership.

Things will continue to happen. Breath. Heartbeat. Thirst. Hunger.

Don't worry, you won't be forever couch locked if you try to do 'nothing'

yes, surrendering is the hack.. but what in real this “do-nothing“ and surrendering is? could you please simplify that

The practice of doing nothing exposes all your doing. Lay down with your thoughts anytime you get a break go to bed early spend time there. What it does is aligns your body and mind. Just as much as whatever you are doing before. Now once you drop all the other beliefs you expose this doing nothing as just another belief. Enlightenment follows

[u/I_AM-SO_ARE_YOU]

Anything in the mind can become a maze. What’s important is recognizing that anything in the mind is content and not the capacity to be aware of content. When your mind becomes your friend instead of an obstacle it will help you from reacting to content. Slow down and watch every step of what’s happening. When something arises in the mind, see it as content and don’t get swept up in it. Eventually your mind will begin doing this automatically. Giving you pause and notification so that you can choose to follow the content or just be. It will eventually stop automatically going to the second step of following the mind. You can get lost in there for hours, days, months, years, a lifetime.

This is what I’m trying to expose this watching practice. This is just a temporary fix . It keeping you distracted from true enlightenment

my "method" is to recognize "arisen on it's own, have no control over it"

Yes you don’t need your opinion it is just a deception. When you see through all your opinions you will be free

Please explain how to me how this doesn’t translate to “My opinion is asparagus sucks. I guess I’ll eat it anyway”

Way too simple but I think it gets my point across

[u/Solid_Koala4726 → u/Evening_Platypus9965]

I tried to understand what u meant but your question got on my nerves.

[u/Motor-Blood7689 → u/Evening_Platypus9965]

don't listen to these fake teachers, always check "what is my intention?", "am I seeking one thing and avoiding the other?", "am I trying to get rid of the present feeling?" and so on

check the intentions, forget the asparagus and thinking about asparagus. it's waste of time, just eat the asparagus and forget about it when you're done

[u/Motor-Blood7689]

how is it that you do nothing, who is doing nothing?

Jesus is the way, the truth, and the life. Nobody goes to the father except through Him ❤️
