God is imagining millions of years of evolution in order to paint a convincing dream. This dream you're dreaming would not feel "real" unless everything had a backstory. It is unacceptable to you to just say that you always existed. You need to invent the backstory that you were born. And so with every object inside the dream. You keep asking where every object inside the dream came from in order to distract yourself from realizing you are dreaming. Each backstory you tell yourself creates a false ground for your "reality". The more backstories you tell yourself, the deeper they go, the more convinced you become that your dream is real.

@Juliano Zn Beginnings and ends are imaginary. So of course God -- the one doing the imagining, YOU -- cannot be subject to them.

Whatever object exists within "the world" -- God must imagine an infinite chain of causation that explains its existence. The story of every object stretches infinitely far in all directions and all dimensions, thus allowing it to exist here and now. God is a mind that spins an infinite story. So if you see a civil society existing on some planet, there must be an infinite story to explain how it got there.

But how was civil society created? The answer to that question IS all of human history. God has to bootstrap itself. History is that process.

You have to be flexible. Intention is good, but don't force it on the trip. Let the trip show you want you need to know. Eventually your intentions will kick in. Just not necessarily on that 1 trip. Dozens of trips are necessary.

Bullshitting that much is hard work

@Strangeloop Do you jerk off to porn of hot women? If not, then you gay.

The sugery never happened. It is imagianry. And so it Rupert Spira. Sam Harris is arguing with himself. And so are you. Ta-da!

When you realize consciousness is infinite, nothing else remains.

Ahahahaha Okay, human.

Hahaha

You can't point to the Truth since Truth is everything. How can you point to EVERYTHING?

@Air Keep it up and you'll be kicked from here. Be here to learn. Not to spread your ignorance.

No, no, no! None of what you think is Truth is Truth. And these kind of threads are hopelessly wrong. So wrong it takes too much time to explain how wrong they are. If you want to awaken, drop this nonsense. TRUTH IS EVERYTHING.

Everything is the same, silly. You are Sam Harris. But good luck telling him that.

That is a dogma. Sam Harris is not awake. And of course he cannot admit this to his audience as it would discredit and embarrass him and shake their materialist, rationalist worldview. So he plays these games and fools him audience along with him. They have no clue how wrong his epistemology and metaphysics is.

And our point is that Sam is God. Lol The mistake Sam is making is that he's actually KNOWING that we cannot know. This is not not-knowing, this is knowing. And false knowing at that. If he truly didn't know he would be open to the idea that he could definitively know that materialism is false. But he believes this to be impossible, which is just a lack of imagination on his part. Sam confuses his inability to imagine how one could know whether idealism or materialism is true with the actual ability to do so. Just because he can't imagine it, doesn't mean it cannot be done. Classic epistemic mistake.

Hence why I stress that there are many degrees of awakening. Otherwise you get stuff like this.

Plenty of people develop no-mind but are still dogmatic. The problem is that an empty mind does not guarantee that when your mind starts turning it doesn't turn out shit. Emptying your goldfish's bowl does not guarantee him what he really needs, which is clean water. The opposite of dirty water is not no water, it is clean water.

Behind every word is wordlessness, so be never disappointed.

Just recorded a new 2hr blog video. Coming soon

Anything becomes a dogma if you are dogmatic about it. The problem is not the thing itself but how your mind holds it. And a dogmatic mind will hold all things dogmatically, be it science or religion or spirituality or even nonduality or love. And even -- drum roll.... -- being nondogmatic. In a delicious irony, the dogmatic mind will turn being nondogmatic into a dogma! Dogma gonna dog

Are they still doing the same juvenile shit 8 years later? I swear, once you make it on YT your development gets frozen in stone. There's nothing like that sweet, sweet YT money to make you forget all about growing yourself. Manchildren

Requires lots of trial and error. Lots of experience needed. You can be cute and romantical without being sexual. Here are two better things you could have texted her: "You are more adorable than a baby polar bear sliding down a rainbow." (stolen line from Jeffy, but it shows you my point). "I want to build you a house out of Legos and fill it with exotic baby animals." Neither of these lines is sexual, but they both clearly tell the girl that you are interested in her romantically and so there will be no friendzone from this. Friendzone happens when you don't make your intent clear. Besides, this is only the opening shot of the battle. There will be many more lines following it which will also subtly communicate your romantic intent. For example, you can literally tell her something like, "I'm taking you for a picnic in the romantical land of enchanted unicorns. Watch out for the rattlesnakes hiding in the pink mist." If she responds positively to such a text, you know she's interested in fucking you. Your intent is clear and you never come off creepy. If she doesn't respond positively then you know she's not attracted to you and nothing you text her will change that. That's why I commented. To disabuse you of this time-wasting notion. You can certainly turn a woman on via texts. I can and have given girls more powerful orgasms via text than past guys ever did with their dicks. But this assumes the girl is attracted to begin with. A very important distinction to learn. My general rule of thumb is this: avoid explicitly mentioning sex to a girl until you've had sex with her. If you follow this one rule you will save so many blown up sets. Of course you can be much more edgy and still get the girl. But you needlessly risk blowing it up. Why take that risk? Just to be edgy? Once you reach the attraction hook-point with a girl, you can get away with some really edgy and sexual stuff. And the hook-point is usually reached within 5 minutes of meeting her face-to-face. But you are not reaching that hook-point via your texts. If you reach the hook-point, you can politely ask to squeeze a girl's tits, and there's a good chance she will let you. One of the most amazing experiences in game is when you go to the club, hit hook-point within 5 seconds just by looking her in the eyes and smiling, and then politely asking her if you can fondle her tits in front of all her friends, and she giggles and says Yes. This sort of thing is possible, but it requires really good calibration and understanding of when hook-point has been hit. Hook-point is like the most important thing to getting girls. It's so crucial to be able to recognize. And it's not a function of time because it can happen in 5 seconds with no words exchanged. When flashy and ballsy game works, it's because the guy reached rapid hook-point with the girl. But foolish newbies think they can do that on a cold girl and it blows up in their face. When a girl likes you, she will let you get away with murder. But if she has no investment in you at all, you might as well be romancing a brick wall. Don't waste your time romancing brick walls. Look for girls who love you right off the bat. Then sleeping with them will be easy. The most effective way to get laid is to go to a nightclub, approach every girl and screen immediately for hook-point. Once you find the one that hooks, you immediately screen her for logistics. If the logistics are not optimal, you immediately move on to another girl until you find one that hooks hard and has optimal logistics. Then you pull. Guys who are masters of game have boiled their game down to this. They are very wise to not waste their time.
