Boo!

Lol Sounds like you were doing it in a creepy way. This almost never happens. If you are camping a small supermarket every day, yeah, you will probably arouse suspicions. If you want to do lots of approaches you need a large high volume area like a mall or nightclub or sidewalk. Places like supermarkets require being highly selective. You can't be an approach machine there. Flirting with a stranger is not sexual harassment. Girls are used to being chatted up. If you do it right, the girl should feel flattered and pleased about herself. It's a huge ego boost for her to be desired. Just don't be creepy. Dress nice, smell nice, groom nice, and SMILE for fuck's sake. Do not approach girls without a big cheeky smile.

@CreamCat Yes, but when a viking woman gets raped by a viking man (and she will), she will start to rethink her support of viking rape and pilage culture. And so culture will evolve. Rape and pilage is self-defeating because karma is a bitch. You rape long enough, someone you love will get raped. And that will make you rethink rape.

They could, if they seek publicity. Osho was great at it. Sadhguru got nothing better to do than fly around and charm people. He already finished his spiritual awakening process. Sadhguru is just executing his life purpose of awakening the ignorant masses. Publicity can be useful for this. Ignorant masses love stunts. If Sahguru shot a fireball out of his ass, they'd all be impressed and start doing his yoga.

Don't limit karma to something that happened in the past. Karma is all your current habits. Your time is better spent becoming more conscious of all your present habits, emotional reactions, beliefs, attachments, fears, desires, etc. You can't change the past. Work on the present.

@silene Behind the words is a new state of cosciousness which you lack.

No, this is silliness compared to nonduality. Don't waste your time, just eat a magic mushroom.

Very good But just the tip.

"Oh, they're doing it to themselves? Well that saves me some work."

These are publicity stunts.

No, people just react differently to awakening. Depends on your karma.

@Name Take a piece of paper and slowly draw a big circle on it. Notice that as you draw the inside you simultaneously draw the outside. You cannot only draw the inside. That is how all dualities work. You cannot have an up without its opposite, you cannot have a beginning without its opposite. A division always creates two pieces. And what you're doing is dividing reality with your mind.

I don't know any seriously awake person who does debates.

It probably affects them less severely, but even such people are can be affected. Not everyone goes through a dark night.

You're basically not going to even understand those levels without becoming a full-time mystic/yogi/monk with decades of hardcore practice achieving crazy high mystical states. Those are the kind of things which cannot be written or talked about. You're gonna be all on your own. Don't expect any support, validation, or anyone to understand you.

All of your questions are misguided. You are lacking awakening. So you keep speaking untruthful things.

Sorry, cannot allow a teacher on here who denies the truth of Love and God. That kind of corruption is unacceptable no matter how helpful the person might otherwise be. His formulation of nonduality is simply incomplete. Anyone who denies Love as the highest teaching is simply not fully awake.

@The Don There is no death until you imagine it. You're not yet understanding how deep the relativity goes.

@Javfly33 By your logic, why should you ever care about anyone but yourself? In your self-centeredness you interpret the message of "stop violence against women" as somehow taking resources away from men. Yet this message doesn't mean to ignore men's issues. You lack basic empathy for those who are not you. You are like a white guy in the colonial South who walks by a poster that says, "Stop slavery now!" and you say to yourself, "But why should I care about the slaves when white poor folk are hungry on the streets? How is helping slaves fair?" Stop thinking that helping to elevate others somehow takes away from you. This is a scarcity mindset. By caring about women, you will increase your care for men. By helping animals you will also help the whole universe. << this is the proper attitude. Love is an unlimited resource, so you don't have to worry about holding it back.

Capital S, capital L.

Whatever you imagine it is.

@Wyatt Women in their 20's are super flakey, especially if you're trying to convert from cold approach. Expect massive flakiness. A good way to test for flakes on the day of the date is to text her 1hr before you get in your car: "Doing some chores and then will head out." If she doesn't respond, you know she's gonna flake. If she's gonna go on a date with you, she needs to be responsive to texts.

@Austin Actualizing Research DMSA chelation.

That's due to class similarities. Conservatives love to use cultural disagreements to distract from class differences. So lots of simple-minded people end up supporting Trump for cultural reasons against their own class interests. Trump is clearly not going to help low income people because he's thinks they are scum.

That's how it is. Takes a lot of practice to overcome that. Usually years of rigorous practice are required. This problem of boredom is existential. It goes very deep. It can't be avoided. The point of meditation is to face it directly, which creates suffering -- which is why hardly anyone meditates. Meditation is supposed to be so boring it kills you.
