They can do whatever mental gymnastics they want, but you can't sail around a disk along its diameter.

Tucker Carlson loves me.

You are conflating relative and absolute matters. When we ask the question: What shape is the Earth? we are asking a relative question, not an absolute one. The question really means: 1) if I travel in a straight line along the ground will I return to the same point or not?, and 2) if I fly into outer space and look back down at the ground, will I see a round object or not? This issue has nothing to do with solipsism or whatever spiritual mumbo-jumbo. Not within your normal default human condition, which is the context of this particular inquiry. The Earth's shape is some way, relative to the default human state of consciousness. What's being asked is an empirical question with empirical consequences, which can be tested. If you claim the Earth is flat then you should not be able to sail around it.

You mean in biblical times? But today's Jews are barely related to those people.

Technically, you don't even know that Earth exists. What you know is that there is ground you can walk around on, but how far it goes and what shape it takes is literally a fantasy in your head. For all you know, the ground could just extend infinitely in all directions and culture is just lying to you to keep you from running away too far. The key is to distingush mental fantasies vs raw experience of the world. If you want to know for sure the Earth is round you'd need to take a boat and sail around to see if you arrive back where you started. It actually won't be too hard to run that test today with a modern boat.

You should take some medication to reduce fever. Search online for names of fever reducing medications. This will help you feel better to deal with your mom.

Don't quit, just take a break. You still have Awakenings waiting for you. Don't fool yourself that you are "done".

It's not a historical event. It's all of human history.

Yeah, there is a ton of spiritual New Age stuff that isn't part of my dream. So what? I don't see goblins either. But I know people who see goblins. Does Sadhguru see goblins?

You are dark, I am Light.

YOU are dreaming everyone and everything, including Sadhguru and his past lives Anything you tell me, I will just tell you that you are dreaming it. The end. Because you are dreaming everything and everyone, you will say anything to deny it. Because that's what a dream requires. So you will deny, deny, deny forever until you're dead. That's what you call life/reality. Oh, and death, you're dreaming that too.

Yes, but also because it was a good time for me since I had finished establishing my foundation and had more free time.

You believe it's solid ground, which is question begging.

@Exystem Thanks for sharing. @mmKay Wow! Awesome share. Thank you.

Technically I don't think Prager is lying. He's just deeply bought into a right-wing fantasy. But I still think it is fair to call Prager intellectually dishonest in that his intellect is so infested with bias that he cannot be bothered to read a Wikipedia page on Hitler. But if I wanted to be more charitable and rigorous I should change the term to self-deceived.

There is a deeper understanding.

Why? Why does it matter?

No. No. No! Contemplate again, from scratch.

No! You contemplate. You don't need anyone to tell you.

Hey now! So demanding!

@mattm33 I have an exercise for you: Why? Why? Why is homosexuality demonized? What is the purpose? Contemplate.

Don't take it too literally.

No way. Jesus is an African attack helicopter.

"Anyone who thinks of homosexuality as a way of life is sick... This aberration cannot be permitted to become widespread and make our youth lose the respect for the natural laws of life." -- Adolf Hitler "We must eliminate homosexuals root and branch... We can't permit such danger to the country; the homosexual must be entirely eliminated." -- Adolf Hitler

But that happens regardless. Morality doesn't stop evil. Morality IS evil.
