Topic: WHO YOU REALLY ARE. (Read 269 times)

Alcohol and drugs only weaken the mind, give us a feeling of pleasant freedom and lightness for a while. But this has a price, and a disproportionately high price. There is no point in ever trying drugs or alcohol at all.

To understand "who am I", you need to understand several concepts.
I will try to explain simply:
There is a brain, our physical body, many more subtle-material bodies (etheric, astral, etc.), Mind, Soul and Spirit.

1) The brain is a receiver that receives information from a single information field. Some are better, some are worse. Many scientists and creative personalities saw their inventions and discoveries in a dream. Creative individuals also do nothing themselves, they draw this from a single information field, because they have greater access to it. But the brain is definitely not me.

2) The physical body is a material vessel in which we can be in this world to get our experience

3) Other bodies (astral, etheric and others) - are needed in order to gain experience in more subtle worlds. For example, when we think, we are already "traveling" through one of the worlds in our subtle body. Each of the bodies is needed for its own purposes (and we all have them, it's just that in the modern world we have ceased to see and feel them). But this can be fixed. So, these bodies are not me either.

4) The mind is a stream of thoughts that comes from a single information field. It can work for us or against us. The "devil" is also there. Therefore, we need to control what thoughts we give the green light to. We need to use it for good. But a single information field or our individual mind is also not me.

5) The soul is one of the shells of our body (one of the subtle bodies), but this body don't belong to this material world (unlike our other bodies, including the astral, etc.). The soul is a part of God (creator), it is boundless Love, it is good, conscience, it is all the best and brightest. We all strive to do the right thing, according to our conscience, but the "devil" in our mind distracts and confuses us. It should be so. This is necessary so that we develop and consciously come to God (i.e. to our own Soul through Love in different manifestations). But the Soul is still just a part of God inside each of us, it is not me yet.

6) Finally, the Spirit is me. This is what has always been and will always be, it does not obey the laws of time, it cannot disappear or die, it is always there. Here in this material world with the help of the mind it will not be possible to realize it (only if with the help of other subtle bodies). To put it simply, it's like a multi-layered spacesuit so that we can be and do something in an aggressive environment.  We (Spirit) materialize in this material world for our development and experience, to merge with our Soul (and stop reincarnating here). Then we become one level higher (an angel or gods, you can call it differently, the essence doesn't change). We come to the material world in our series of reincarnations as an individual, and we leave it as a person (i.e. with the experience of Love, i.e. merge with the Soul, with the inner light).

This is, if in a simple way, so that everyone can understand. This information is available to everyone. It said the same thing everywhere (any religions, Vedic knowledge, philosophy, different teachings, even science, etc.), just in different words for different people who lived at different times, etc.

Self control is important. If you drink and cant control yourself that you sort to violence then better not drink at all. Drinking alcohol is not the solution just so you can release all the feelings you have. You can also do that even without the influence of alcohol or drugs. Its not who we are but just a part of us thats being controlled.

Many of y'all won't be believe this, most people are just very hot tempered, and of bad morals, either they are drunk or not they over reacting towards little things that won't have gotten so big and far, such people need taming and rehab, not everything is alcohol Please OP

I'd say when we're drunk or angry, we are the bad part of ourselves and that's the part needs improvement. if we have ourselves doing what nature drives us to do, then we are no different with animals, even worse than them in view of all the influence evil things have left to us. if we overcome that, we then are truly human and the soul improved. 
so that's not who we are, but what animals actually are.

I do not know.
I am a different person on different occasions.

If a person is adequate, then even sober, even drunk, he always remains a person. And if a person is an asshole, then this should not be attributed to drunkenness. If someone has done bad deeds, then let them be responsible for their actions.

unforgivable.
The other party cannot guarantee that he will not drink for the rest of his life, will not lose control of his emotions, and will not anger others.
Therefore, domestic violence cannot be guaranteed not to happen.
Emotional stability is a good quality for anyone.

To a certain extent, drinking alcohol will make people unable to judge their own behavior, unable to control themselves, and thus make behaviors that hurt others. I think you should stop drinking, because drinking is not only harmful to the body, but also nothing else. effect.

People have developed a skill in life, such as hiding.
Over time, people have forgotten who they are.

Drinking alcohol can paralyze the nerves.
It will make people unconsciously show the hidden side.
But they are all one-sided.
Diversity of human nature.

when you drink or take drugs there are no more inhibitions and our true nature comes out we have to be very careful because in those conditions we can also do bad or immoral things

That's an interesting idea. In my opinion a wife beater should never be excused and ajwats face the consequences for his actions.

Here is another question, what if someone never drinks or uses any other form of drugs, lives a healthy life and is never angry. Would you say this guy his never himself then and just hides his true face perfectly?

There is never an excuse to beat your husband or wife. If you feel like the pressure is heating up & there is a conflict brewing then leave the home & return a couple of hours later.

If you are drunk your evil thoughts gets expressed more because mind always possess both kind of thoughts butbthe self control knows which one to be expressed but when you lost your self control then evil might get expressed a lot because it was getting supressed all the time.

Anger ,pressured and Drunk are all has different effect and reactions , anger comes from deeper part of us,this only goes when provoked and the outcome mostly is out of our control ,because we are not use to this.

Pressured is from our Emotion, triggered when or limit is being questioned so our emotion changed and sweating is what we have most of the time.

While Drunk is not totally us,because the alcohol changes us ,this is added substance to our body in which won't happen if not intake.

So which is the really US?

Some people say they take alcohol when worried to reduce over thinking, but there are various ways to forget your worries not alcohol. Because we all know its harmful to the health. I will say when you are worried or in stress you should think positive, do things that will make you happy, like going out with friends and family and not getting drunk.

They should be excused and deserve another chance to change, even if they often do the same thing over and over. But we can support them to change and show the way that they can change better than before. I am sure that every person is a good person, and we should back it to him, especially if he regrets what he is done before, and he wants to change.

When I am drunk I lose all control of my abilities to function and communicate with people.  It is a awful site to see and I do not enjoy being in this mood.
Sometimes if we are at a party I will drink to much alcohol because I am having too much fun.  Only to regret t hours later or when I am awake the next morning.   

That is the Other side of us, we have many faces and sometimes we can't dig those until time unexpected happens.

Alcohol act as Engine for us to reveal whats inside of us,so expect  That even Saints Will Change if being Drunk.

and also like what the layman's say .Even Saints Has their own Evil side.

Been really long I got drunk, but from what I can remember back then, it makes you forgetful, and probably courageous while ignoring boundaries that shouldn't be crossed.

My guess is that alcohol was made for man (and probably other creatures) to feel happy, suppress pain and forget terrible experience. Excessive drinking would probably make you brave and take careless risks you normally wouldn't take because of not being very conscious of your actions.
