  1. Don't assume that. Actually test it on yourself. Plants can be very inflammatory. It all depends.
  2. It's a tricky and very delicate matter, handling those two artfully.
  3. Real = Imaginary Imaginary = Real All loose ends tie together into a circle.
  4. @AMTO Be careful with conflating relative vs absolute domains.
  5. Paradoxically, more detached yet more empathetic.
  6. There is an epic difference though between your normal interactions with your parents and you being conscious that you imagined them. The difference is shockingly huge. It's fucking freaky. Most normies would think they've lost their minds if it happened to them. But I highly recommend it
  7. That's why in my commune we cut your balls off. Who's in boys?
  8. I got no problem with him venturing outside his lane. Hell, I do that all the time. You can operate outside your lane, just be careful not to make a fool of yourself. I know I have sometimes. That's the kind of BS I was alluding to. There's more where that came from. Either lucky or cursed
  9. I've certainly been in a state of consciousness where my parents did not exist. Or, rather, they were recognized to be just figments of my own imagination created to backwards rationalize my Eternal existence. There are states in which the entire Universe will cease to exist, because you cease to imagine it.
  10. @Roy 1) Dan Crenshaw's eye is the least funny thing about him. No need to stoop to such lows when we got the stupidity of his ideology to work with. 2) Keep in mind Vaush is still in his late 20's. He's basically a big teen. He will mature a lot over the next 10-20 years. Considering his age he's doing pretty well. When I was his age I was so immature and dumb. Age matters A LOT.
  11. These sorts of perceptional illusions can even happen in normal sober existence. Sometimes you look at a bush or a window and see something like an animal or a face that later you realized wasn't there. Both are consciousness. Yes, you define non-hallucination as something you can't stick your hand through. But the hand itself is a hallucination on a deeper layer. There are layers to your hallucinations. Hallucinations within hallucinations. Have you never woken up from a dream only to later realize you are still stuck in a dream? One time I woke up from a dream 3 times before I finally returned to this dream we call "life".
  12. If you want to be a billionaire there's something wrong with your head. If you want to be successful and wealthy, no problem, go for it. But a billionaire?? Come on. Read the room.
  13. @DocWatts Vaush has a good head on his shoulders. The only thing I would wish is for him is to drop his communist identity. He doesn't need it and it's going to get him stuck. Vaush would be even greater minus the communist ideology. We need Vaush at stage Yellow.
  14. Of course. You saw it with your own eyes. You just don't want to believe what you saw. Of course. Although this truth does not hinge on psychedelics. You could also prove it via meditation or yoga or a dozen other ways. Mind is all that there is. And Mind is Infinite. QM is imagined by Mind. QM hinges on Mind, Mind does not hinge on QM.
  15. Anyone who collaborates with Ike and Jones reveals to you their true colors. A conscious person would not associate with Alex Jones. Both Trump and Covid have revealed the true colors of many people. How you view Trump and Covid says so much about you at such a deep character level.
  16. I challenge this commonly-held and unquestioned position. I think there are many Dems superior to her. I see her as a bit of a fake progressive. She has pretty deep conservative roots. She frequently sides with the right on certain issues. I don't think she has a deep grasp of things. I know folks like Jimmy Dore adore her (excuse the pun), but I think Jimmy Dore has lost the plot to the point of hurting the Democratic cause. It's like Dore has gone full-circle into Tucker Carlson. He's way too unreasonable and angry. In a sense, I think Biden is perfect right now. He's the most pragmatic and realistic of the bunch. A rabid progressive would not get much more done than Biden I think. Biden's moderate image is working very well for him. I think people underestimate Biden. He's all too easy to dismiss and mock, yet Biden can accomplish a lot of basic, practical stuff -- as he's currently on track to do. It won't be anything crazy socialist. But it will still be much welcomed. Biden can be trusted to do solid liberal governance. It's not flashy, but it works and it's badly needed and it lays the foundation for future progressive causes.
  17. Not from my end. But I will have to ask if he wishes to be named. We are still figuring out how things will work.
  18. If two things were truly identical, you could not distinguish one from the other, and they would literally become 1 thing. By definition, 2 requires some difference or distinction. In the case of red, at the least these two reds would have to differ in their x,y,z coordinates. It should be possible to have some qualities be identical though. Not in all ways, but in partial ways. For example, all protons have the same charge (I would assume).
  19. Then slow down. This is true. Try doing more nothing Seriously! Be careful not to go overboard with this work. You need to make room for rest, fun, and just giving your mind a break from constant and endless personal development. Many people on here are bullshitters, so don't take that too seriously. Some people here have done lots of work for years. And some people here are exceptionally spiritually gifted to begin with. This work is not the same for all people. Some people will have it much harder than others. That's okay. Don't be so concerned with where others are at. You can only do better than your old self. That's what matters. - - - - - - - Yes, generally speaking, becoming more conscious is hard. But my point is, don't make it harder than it needs to be. A lot of times you are making it extra hard by doing it wrong. So stay mindful to that. Sometimes you gotta take breaks and sometimes you gotta try doing it the opposite of how you've been doing it. Take a month off and do nothing. You might be surprised how much you grow from that. Efforting all the time is not really the best way. Ultimately you want to find effortless ways of doing this work. That is the ideal. If it feels too much like work then you're probably doing it wrong.
  20. If your goal is to lose weight you need to make permanent changes to your daily diet. If you forever eliminate the wrong foods from your diet, you will never have to worry about gaining weight ever again. And you don't have to starve. Cleaning up your diet is THE KEY to permanent and effortless weight loss. When you start eating healthy food and forever banish junk food, cravings become less of a thing. Overeating healthy whole food is basically impossible. Eat as much as you like. But bread, pasta, potatoes, rice, etc is not healthy food. Cut all that shit out. If you want to lose weight, cut out all grains and starches.
  21. Tulsi Gabbard -- Lol Bret Weinstein is smart in some ways, and silly in others. This is one example of his silliness. Tusli is not a good progressive candidate. She's regressive and conservative in many ways. Is Vaush's debate-lording really that effective? I think he mostly preaches to the choir. How many Nazi's does Vaush need to debate to prove that Nazism and white nationalism is a dumb idea? And how many of those debates do you need to hear in order to settle this case? You can engage of course, but also at some point the constant engagement of people with no intellectual integrity or interest in governing is just like arguing with a donkey. It becomes a waste of time. No one should be listening to Dan Crenshaw about how to govern. If you want to have a serious discussion on governing, let's have it. But let's not pretend these Fox News puppets care anything about that. A precondition for any serious political discussion must be 1) Intellectual integrity, 2) genuine interest in governing, and 3) historical literacy and honesty. Without these 3 things the discussion is a waste of time.
  22. I want to thank everyone who submitted their application for this job. In total I received 24 applications. A majority of them very solid and qualified people. However, I can only select 1. It was a difficult choice, so don't feel bad if I didn't pick you. It doesn't mean there was anything wrong with you or your application. Sometimes these things are just a coin toss when you have a dozen solid candidates. If the selected candidate doesn't work out, or the position opens up again, I might get in touch with you.
  23. To even take him seriously enough to rebut his logic is already too much of a concession. Such members of congress are simply gifters and morons. Like Matt Gaetz. Nothing they say should be taken seriously. Such people have no intellectual integrity, so trying to reason with them is like wrestling with a pig.
