What if the source of so-called "bipolar disorder" and "narcissism" is not physical but is actually a misconception of the relative importance of the patient's ego, as regards to its interactions with the objective external world? Siddhartha Gautama (Shakamuni Buddha) mystically revealed that "all existence is suffering," and pointed towards a complicated eightfold noble path that would lead to liberation from the misery of *thinking* and trying to make the individual ego fit a resistant material universe... Sri Ramana Maharshi explained self-enquiry (Self Realization) in a simpler manner, from the beginning. Before embarking on a description of the technique itself it will be necessary to explain Sri Ramana Maharshi’s views on the nature of the mind since the aim of self-enquiry is to discover by direct experience, that the mind is non-existent. According to Sri Ramana Maharshi, every conscious activity of the mind or body revolves around the tacit assumption that there is an ‘I’ who is doing something. The common factor in ‘I think’, ‘I remember’, ‘I am acting’, is the ‘I’ who assumes that it is responsible for all these activities. Sri Ramana Maharshi called this common factor the ‘I’-thought (Aham- Vritti). Literally aham-vritti means ‘mental modification of ‘I’. The Self or real ‘I’ never imagines that it is doing or thinking anything; the ‘I’ that imagines all this is a mental fiction and so it is called a mental modification of the Self. Since this is a rather cumbersome translation of Aham-Vritti it is usually translated as ‘I’-thought. The first and foremost of all thoughts that arise in the mind is the primal 'I'-thought. It is only after the rise or origin of the 'I'-thought that innumerable other thoughts arise. In other words, only after the first personal pronoun, 'I', has arisen, do the second and third personal pronouns ('you, he' etc.) occur to the mind; and they cannot subsist without the former. Since every other thought can occur only after the rise of the 'I'- thought and since the mind is nothing but a bundle of thoughts, it is only through the inquiry 'Who am I?' that the mind subsides. Moreover, the integral 'I'-thought, implicit in such enquiry, having destroyed all other thoughts, gets itself destroyed or consumed, just as the stick used for stirring the burning funeral pyre gets consumed.... Verbal constipation can be cured today. Your doctor knows what drugs to prescribe; you should make an appointment to see him. Regards, Steve Now I find that Prozac makes me a fairly pleasant individual. I take a measly 600mg lithium however I'm usually pretty "up", but that's more a state I developed after years of conditioning. In other words, LOL, misery. Its really less about how we got this way, and more about who we're going to become...a spirochete.

Unlike Christians, Catholics, and Muslims, Hindus are not "damned" to "hell" for all eternity. All will be liberated eventually. However, your problem which makes you suffer so much that you lash out in anger at total strangers is your overweening ego. You have no real understanding of who you are, so you suffer. Your self-inflicted suffering will continue for what *seems like* an eternity, but the universe will not care. But, on the day that you find out who you are, you will be liberated and you will laugh at yourself for taking so long to figure it out. Hindu so you're a Chink? I'm very aware of what China is doing as they run rampant with global domination such as buying up the continent of Africa and exploiting those oil reserves, all the way down to micromanagement of the female uterus. This is what superpowers do. That is why I call them krazy slant-eyed fukktards who should be lined up and killed, one by one, until the entire population is dead.
