Our own self-realization is the greatest service we can render the world. Silence is also conversation. – Sri Ramana Maharshi
Silence is truth. Silence is bliss. Silence is peace. And hence Silence is the Self. – Sri Ramana Maharshi
The Self cannot be found in books. You have to find it for yourself in yourself. – Sri Ramana Maharshi

“The West’s Financial System on the Brink of Collapse.”
Because of the greed/addiction of the creditors.
Everything is spirit, spiritual. Everything is consciousness.
He says, “Be still, and know that I am God; I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth.”
Almost everybody is trapped in conceptual reality. Far too much for peace of mind and wisdom at least. Why? Then we go back to theory of stupidity aka group think. We humans are group animals.
As of today I am going to attempt to do weekly 44 hours fasting from Friday 20 February 26 to at least through Mars. Two nights and one day 44 hours fasting.
Friday is föstudagur in Icelandic which means fasting day.
The days in Icelandic are, sunnu (sun), mánu (moon), þriðju (three), miðviku (mid week), fimmtu (fifth), föstu (fasting), lauga (wash) – all ending with the word dagur (day).
13 If I speak human or angelic languages
but do not have love,
I am a sounding gong or a clanging cymbal.
2 If I have the gift of prophecy
and understand all mysteries
and all knowledge,
and if I have all faith
so that I can move mountains
but do not have love, I am nothing.
3 And if I donate all my goods to feed the poor,
and if I give my body in order to boast[a]
but do not have love, I gain nothing.
4 Love is patient, love is kind.
Love does not envy,
is not boastful, is not conceited,
5 does not act improperly,
is not selfish, is not provoked,
and does not keep a record of wrongs.
6 Love finds no joy in unrighteousness
but rejoices in the truth.
7 It bears all things, believes all things,
hopes all things, endures all things.
8 Love never ends.
But as for prophecies,
they will come to an end;
as for languages, they will cease;
as for knowledge, it will come to an end.
9 For we know in part,
and we prophesy in part.
10 But when the perfect comes,
the partial will come to an end.
11 When I was a child,
I spoke like a child,
I thought like a child,
I reasoned like a child.
When I became a man,
I put aside childish things.
12 For now we see indistinctly,[b] as in a mirror,[c]
but then face to face.
Now I know in part,
but then I will know fully,
as I am fully known.
13 Now these three remain:
faith, hope, and love.
But the greatest of these is love.
Alertness, awareness, mindfulness. What am I should not be answered verbally. One should just meditate on "what am I".
Matthew 17:21
However this kind goeth not out but by prayer and fasting.”
Luke 17:21
Neither shall they say: Behold here, or behold there. For lo, the kingdom of God is within you.
