This sub-forum is not just politics, it's also current events and societal issues.

Because it's a conceptual construct that will limit your mind's ability to access more advanced ways of understanding consciousness. It's the same problem as telling yourself that consciousness come from the brain. That "brain" then locks down your mind into a very limited paradigm which you cannot see beyond.

Always get her number. As the man you want to be in charge of leading the situation, not sitting around hoping some girl will take action.

God is an Infinite Illusion. That's the beauty of God.

Yes. But also, at an even deeper level maybe you are dreaming all those other dreams.

"Unconscious mind" is a kind of imagined construct. You could throw away this construct entirely and live without it and reality will make even more sense than with it. Analytic psychology is nowhere close to a good explanation of Consciousness. But at the same time, Consciousness can hide stuff from itself. Consciousness can forget stuff. Right now Consciousness is hiding demons from you. You could live inside a demon world, but you don't because it isn't useful for human survival. So in this sense your consciousness is very limited. If your consciousness was unlimited you would see demons, dragons, goblins, and more!

Maybe this is a clue that you should be working with kids more, or have some of your own, since you are so good with kids.

The cost of dates is so minimal. You can pay $10 for a date.

The one you used to ask that question.

What if that whole thing was the only obstacle to realizing God? What would you do?

@joeyi99 Dude, your looks are fine, there's nothing wrong with you. You're just not putting in enough effort at socializing. The notion that you cannot get laid is ridiculous. You certainly can. You're just doing it wrong.

You could hit dating hard first, get a girlfriend, and then work on your biz with her around. It doesn't take long to get a girlfriend. Maybe 6-8 months. This way you could work on your biz, have sex, and gain relationship xp.

Understanding is not an illusion.

Learning how to think deeply and well, is crucial. This strand of Neo-Advaita which marginalizes thinking is a trap. The world is way too complex to get by without deep, serious thinking. Yeah, if all you do in life is just teach others about Neo-Advaita them maybe you don't need to think much. But if you are seriously engaged in human affairs like business or politics or art or science, you better learn to think well. The reason some guru can get away with this no-mind stuff is because he isn't doing any serious work. It's a very self-absorbed sort of approach, ironically, because that kind of life cannot sustain the civilization which your life depends on.

I'm saying it's a minor factor.

Of course.

Most people don't think at all, they react emotionally and rationalize their biases. Most people have zero intellectual foundation, they are just surviving by whatever ways are most convenient. People do not understand nor appreciate how government actually works, they are instead reacting emotionally to culture war issues. That's what happens when the populace is poorly educated and lacks wisdom.

Psychopaths literally have a defect in their brain which inhibits their ability to feel empathy. So they are lost in their own perspective. Narcissists also lack empathy and are self-absorbed so they get lost on their own fantasies. I don't see that as a big factor other than the following: The most important aspect of the physical pillar as you call it would be mental disorders, mental illness, and brain genetics. Like schizophrenia or psychopathy, both of which have a high genetic component.

It's a hoax. Everyone who speaks of no-mind is using mind. You can have short periods of no-mind, but you can't live from that place.

Probably epistemology, developmental psychology, conscious politics, metaphysics, spirituality, psychedelics.

It's the same anti-mainstream brain-rot that half of the country is afflicted with. These days people will blindly vote for anything anti-mainstream. Today, people would vote for Hitler just because he goes against CNN. That's the level of politics we're at.
