I managed to beat all addictions and as result of that I got feeling of emptiness inside.How to fill this empty void inside?

Feel into that emptiness. 

 

It might actually be Fullness.

 

But idk...gotta see for yourself 😉😊

Congrats! Rest in wellbeing, in the now, in a light positive feeling. Wisdom will tell you what to do/what you want. 

Thanks man.

That’s not emptiness. Still plenty of beliefs to go. 

I felt emptiness inside not some metaphysical emptiness.

Where is "it"?

In my body , feeling is emptiness.It's paradox.I quited all my addictions just to feel empty?!

If you aren't feeling Fullness you haven't fully Emptied yet. 

 

Nows the time for daily exercise, journaling, meditation, prayer, devotion, serving others. 

 

Do anything that isn't for you, anything that takes your mind off of "I" "me" "what's in it for me?"

@Alexander if you pray for others, devote yourself to God or Source, and don't focus on "me", you'll be surprised to find you feel more fullfilled than you'd think.

Ah yes, more listening to the "teachers" and "experts". I personally don't encourage listening to these kinds of people but see for yourself if what they speak points you closer to our Nature.

I took it that way, I’m with ya. Metaphysics is just a conceptual misnomer imo. 

 

Ime, emptying / emptiness is of the mind / the activity of thinking & of ‘holding’ of beliefs / knowing, while feeling is pure fullness. So rather than filling the void, I’m suggesting there is actually more to empty in terms of uncovering feeling, such that / to the extent it’s ‘seen’ clearly there is not and never was ‘a void’. Maybe deeper seated interpretations not yet looked at, and maybe some more subtle surface level beliefs yet to be noticed / aware of. Maybe triggering of beliefs occurring, yet guidance remaining ignored.  

 

In any case congrats again on kicking the habits! That’s awesome! 

 

One question to ponder if interested… is feeling finite like in the body or a product of the body, or is feeling infinite, while thought presumes ‘my feelings’.
