  1. Why do anything since eventually you'll be dead? Reality has no point other than being. No matter what you do, it doesn't matter other than in your imagination. A thing matters if you think it does. You have total freedom to do whatever you want since nothing you do matters. In practice, though, you are not in control of your desires. Your desires control you and dictate what you find meaningful. Of course your desires are totally selfish and groundless in the end. And your desires create your suffering. If you were wise you would abandon all desire. But you're not that wise. So you're stuck being their slave
  2. If you understood how I knew, you'd have already finished the inquiry and be awake. Hint: You will never find anything more fundamental than direct experience. Any logic you conjure up to undermine direct experience is itself direct experience. This turns out to the key that unlocks Truth. Your speculations about aliens and computer simulations is all less fundamental than direct experience. The more you theorize and speculate, the further you get from Truth. See my video: What Is Actuality? if you want to save yourself a decade of wasted time.
  3. Mating is an arms race. Both sides manipulate to get the most they can while trying to minimize their survival risk. There's nothing personal about it. It's just unconscious selfishness.
  4. In practice it's hard to buy a decent existing business. People who are usually selling a business are doing it because the business is going downhill. $10k is so little when it comes to investing. It's pointless to buy a business you have zero experience with. You'll tank it. Running a business requires keen industry knowledge and experience. It makes sense to buy competitors in a field you're already deeply experienced in. But that's gonna cost you a lot more than $10k. What condo you gonna buy with $10k? $10k is basically good enough to start a small biz of your own. But this will require full time work.
  5. @LfcCharlie4 That's what I did. But it was very painful and soul-crushing. In practice, once you have a bunch of money and success from a non-purpose business, you will become so attached to it that you are not likely to ever find your true purpose. You will get comfortable and lazy and finding your LP will become too risky and inconvenient. Money and success easily corrupts the mind, getting it to justify whatever brings in that money as "good". You will start telling yourself things like, "Well, what if this thing I'm doing is already my LP? It probably is. Why rock the boat?" The enemy of the great is the good. Besides which, you could easily lose all your money before you reach some kind of level of total security and freedom. Chasing money does not guarantee you money. The point of aligning with your LP is that it gives you the super-human passion necessary to become successful. It's hard to become successful at something your heart isn't into.
  6. Again, you're still thinking about this using your dick. The biggest challenge girls face is that they get pumped and dumped. It's easy for a girl to get laid. The hard part is getting a quality guy to commit to her. Imagine how you'd feel is every time you met a cool guy, he fucked you and left to pursue hotter girls. And then on top of that all your friends would think of you as dirty slut.
  7. Lol Go to a KKK meet-up while you're at it
  8. In practice every technology gets abused by devils. Since more than 50% of the world population is stage Blue or below, psychedelics would not work worldwide. But they can work in the most advanced cities and countries with proper regulation and education. The educational component is crucial. Something like Actualized.org is needed to create a theoretical framework for existential inquiry. Giving random people psychedelics is bound to create some disastrous situations which prompt regulators to crack down on it. Just like happened in the 60's. People were doing psychedelics without any proper theoretical framework. This framework still largely does not exist. One of my goals is to create that framework. Yes, it's worth pushing society to embrace psychedelics. There will be some minor disasters along the way but it will be worth it in the end. This movement is really no different than pushing for the abolition of slavery. Similar hurdles will be faced. What we're talking about here is changing deep cultural paradigms. The deeper the paradigm, the harder it will be to change, the more you will demonized for trying to change it. But it will happen regardless. It's only a question of time.
  9. Hehe, that's the nature of Absolute Truth. It's uncompromising. It is what it is and your ego cannot play games with it like you want. You're welcome to play all the games you want, but the Truth will forever remain out of your reach until you wise up. There is nothing you can do to undermine God. But have fun trying.
  10. That is the whole problem in a nutshell. You can still practice dropping stuff. Including dropping intellectualization. Letting go must be practiced 1000s of times. It's nowhere near enough to let go a few dozen times. This must be a daily practice for years. See Sedona Method. It's worth doing.
  11. @7thLetter Go talk to girls and start a business. You are putting the cart before the horse. Truth will destroy your whole life. There will be nothing left. You will not care about girls or business by the time you find Truth and stabilize in it. Stabilizing in Truth will require surrendering all your material attachments.
  12. @Annoynymous Stop intellectualizing this. Take a conceptual thing and let it go in your direct experience. That is letting go. For example, let go of the idea that the Earth is round. Do it right now. That's it! That's letting go. Your ideas of letting go are not letting go. Try letting of the idea that the Earth is round until you no longer have any attachment to it. To the point where it no longer bothers you. To the point where it's just a non-issue.
  13. It makes no difference how clean your diet is if your brain and organs are filled with heavy metals.
  14. What a devil calls strength is actually weakness, and what he calls weakness is actually strength. You realize you're a devil yet?
  15. You need to study attraction theory and then tons of practice in real life to iron out your socially awkward ways. Basically your problem is you have way too little socialization experience so you don't understand all the subtle social cues and norms of courtship.
  16. Even the most skillful hardcore practictioners will not go as deep as a chemical can go. You can spend 40 years and still fall short and still not know what you've missed.
  17. This your self-biased projection. You have no objective understanding of the challenges of dating for women.
  18. Because there is no clear way of measuring the depth of various awakenings. Each one feels absolute. There's basically no way to know you're missing something unless you stumble upon an even deeper realization. It's almost impossible for human beings to reach the highest levels of consciousness without chemical modification. And most humans are against chemical modification. So they have no idea what they are missing.
  19. @FuriousGeorge Just be careful with your manipulations. Selfish manipulations undermine your relationship.
  20. Obviously turn your sex into a spiritual activity. It can be a win-win. Try mixing sex with psychedelics, if you dare to see how deep the rabbit hole goes
  21. @FuriousGeorge Keep at it. One day you'll get it. Psychedelics help.
  22. Now you just have to realize that he and all atheists are you Then you will cringe at the shadow you've made of him. That's the double mindfuck here. Judging ignorance is still ignorance.
  23. No YOU are ego! Stop looking for analogies when you are a big fat ego right here. Everytime you imagine you have a life, that's ego.
