It didn't come all of a sudden like winning millions at Lottery.
The awareness came after a lot of hard work through yoga but if on top of that you also put the
NDEs experiences that confirm what I already believe then the reasons for a change become nil.  Worship
I see, so if I have a solid belief, I need to be careful.
But if you have a solid belief, it's an "awareness". And you admit you latch onto things that only confirm your belief.

I actually do a lot of yoga, and I read and study the Tao. Neither makes me believe in magic. NDE's are still explained through natural experiences, as is the feeling that God is within.  But you go ahead with your admitted confirmation bias.  I'll go ahead with my truly open mind.


There are a lot of people who like you say.......I actually do a lot of yoga, and I read and study the Tao.........and they say they are getting nowhere.
It is bizarre that when I ask them.......tell me about your yoga.......they say.......oh I do exercise and read yoga books.
Sure that is part of yoga but the real yoga is meditation using a proper mantra, asanas (exercises), a veg. diet a code of conduct and other things.
All the rest is not yoga.
So when you will do all these things please come back to me and tell me whether your yoga works or not.  Lightbulb
