  1. Evil doesn't exist! Evil if what "you" -- an ego self -- has labeled stuff which threatens your existence as an ego self. Fortunately the ego-self is not real, so it cannot really be harmed. Harm is illusory. But it sure feels real from your POV. That's the power of ego. Ego imagines evil. This is the cost of being born. You can't be born without dying.
  2. You are confusing your ego self with God. God proper has no needs or lack. Any need or lack you feel is simply the human ego self striving to survive. As a human you have real needs to stay alive. So go ahead and satisfy some of them. Just don't get too lost in a never-ending quest of satisying survival needs as that is a road to hell. In practice you should go make some friends. But God proper is above such things. Turning inwards and facing loneliness is a good spiritual practice, but it's an advanced practice for people who are ready for such things. It's not a solution to socialization problems.
  3. It would be rather selfish to hoard all that love for yourself. Think about this very simply in human terms: if you just won the lottery for infinite dollars, what would you do? You'd give it all away to your family and loved ones. Why? Because it's fucking infinite! You've got nothing you lose! How petty would you have to be to not share it? What is the point of being an all-powerful God if you cannot share your Beauty and Goodness with everyone? Can you think of anything better for God to do? What would you do if you were God? Seriously. Think about it. What would you do? In the end you will come to this one conclusion: there is nothing else for God to do but share its infinite love. There can be no higher purpose. Any other purpose would not be worthy of God. Remember, God has no needs. What would you do if you had absolutely no need or lack? You'd radiate Love! Ta-da! P.S. God IS bathing in Love for all of eternity. That bath is your experience. God loses nothing by creating you. You ARE God's Love! If you truly love yourself, why not touch yourself?
  4. LOL The Lord of Light works in mysterious ways.
  5. Because I recognize that all symbols are relative and arbitrary. They make sense within a given system. They have as much meaning as you give them. God invents and understands all symbols. And its understanding goes even deeper than anything symbols can depict. If you like my symbols, cool, but also don't take them too seriously, in the same way that you don't want to get too attached to a single language.
  6. No amount of psychedelics can help so long as the person maintains the context of "it's all just wacky stuff happening in the brain." That materialist anchor must be challenged until it is realized that the brain was merely a conceptual fabrication. Of course it takes radical openmindedness to even take such a possibility seriously. It just does not occur to most people that their brain could be a hallucination. Let alone all of material reality, let alone their birth as a self. This is radical work we're doing here folks. The mindfuck of it is epic beyond description. It is twisted as fuck.
  7. @Harikrishnan Visualization is a very good practice for this. You can visualize every day whatever new belief you want to have. But you must visualize it daily for weeks & months for it to be effective. Once or twice will not work.
  8. There are many options. Suffering mindfully is a very direct path towards awakening, but it's hard to do precisely because it involves the thing you hate most: lots of suffering! Or you could do some other spiritual practice like meditation, yoga, psychedelics, etc. The following videos might help you: How To Deal With Strong Negative Emotions Awareness Alone Is Curative Psychedelics are a great way to learn about suffering.
  9. To survive as a self! Suffering is the resistance of the self to dissolution. If you didn't suffer, you'd literally die and become God. Suffering is the activity you invented to keep yourself from merging with God! Ta-da! Clever devil, eh?
  10. @clouffy Green generally reduces the importance of productivity in favor of deepening relationships. This is not to say Green stops getting work done, but that macho desire to out-work all your competitors takes a back seat to building and enjoying relationships with human beings. So maybe rather than working overtime to publish 100 research papers, you devote more of your time to working one on one with your students and you become known as the most beloved professor by your students. Just an example. Remember, relationships can be powerful. Deep relationships can open many doors for you in life, so you may not have to work as hard. Then again, nothing wrong with work as long as it aligns with your values. Your work should be working towards embodying or spreading Green values. Then you'll be motivated. Instead of personal achievement and success, Green is more motivated to help people / environment. For example, I work a lot less than I used to when my center of gravity was Orange. Today I make a lot of time for chilling out, tripping, contemplation, and deepening my connection to God. This would be unthinkable to an Orange person. I still do work, but it happens more organically at a deeper level. There's less raw output, but more depth and enjoyment. I'm less neurotic about work. My sense of self is less identified with the quantity of work I do.
  11. @clouffy You mean you want to talk about mystical topics in an academic setting? Hehe, that's a tough one. Academia is not generally open to that. Maybe you should reconsider being in academia. That's what I did. I have no desire to play their games. Then again, there certainly are ways to make it work.
  12. @clouffy Be more specific if you want good advice.
  13. How does one take a dump? Be careful not to use the no-free-will thing as an excuse for inaction. Clearly you can act, since you're doing it all day.
  14. Haha! Talk about casting your pearls before swine! Funny how that works. You can't get a donkey to recognize himself in the mirror no matter how much you try. How do you explain to a donkey that he's God??? "Hey donkey, you're God!" Donkey: Watch out, he might bite you too! P.S. When a guy names his channel "Unspirituality", that's your clue.
  15. I love them both. They have some unique pros and cons. But for this point in my journey, DPT hits the spot. Who knows what the future will bring.
  16. @Solonius It is Conscious. Of course Infinity includes both sentience and non-sentience, as that is a duality and a distinction which God imagines. God's plan is Love and Goodness. Awaken deeply to get the confirmation. Logic nor science will be sufficient. It is beyond communication or language. The confirmation of the most advanced things I teach is always: awakening. There cannot be any other way. You cannot use some dumb mechanical means to realize God's plan.
  17. Already answered in neighboring thread.
  18. Both. Of course I've seen it happen. You just need to listen to more pundits opinions of her.
  19. You are God! Yes, prayer works, but you must be conscious that you are praying to yourself. You also need to have a proper understanding of what "works" means in this context. Don't be praying for material stuff or the fulfillment of egoic needs. Pray for selflessness and unconditional love. Prayer for the end of your devilry.
  20. Of course you cannot just drop your POV. This takes decades of deconstructive work and numerous mystical experiences. In practice, less than 0.001% of the human population will ever discover the mind of God and cause of all Creation. Because they simply don't care enough to discover it.
  21. From your POV that cannot be understood. Drop your POV. Love = selflessness. How can you understand it if your entire worldview is built around surviving as a self? Darkness cannot understand light. A devil cannot understand God.
  22. @mindcentral It would probably be much less effective and dirtier. Syringe is clean and easy.
  23. Horrible is a judgment you're making. Horror is a projection of your mind. All acts that happen in the universe happen out of Love. But you cannot see it because you are being too selfish.
  24. Amazingly numerical infinities have various sizes. Watch the video, Understanding Absolute Infinity - Part 2, where the work of Georg Cantor is explained. Absolute Infinity is not the same as a numerical infinity. Absolute Infinity doesn't have a size. It is simply reality itself.
