I highly doubt that would have works.

Hard to say. It's not just size but their brain might have entirely new organs in the head. I have read about alien brians which have 13 hemispheres rather than our 2. Who knows what spiritual powers that unlocks. -

That would be a serious problem. Very bad. -

@MysticalSnow If you take 1000 kids and put them through the most rigorous training you can imagine, virtually none of them will develop telepathic abilities. You are welcome to try it. -
I understand your point. It's not unreasonable. But Russia is clearly doing this in a bad-faith, underhanded, authoritarian, corrupt, and illegal way. Disrespecting the sovereignty of Ukrainians. Putin doesn't really care about what the people in Donbas think or want. He's just looking to gain geopolitical advantage and to sabotage Ukraine as a sovereign democratic state.

It's hard to quantify it. I don't know all the ins and outs of the Israeli government. You'd need to create some kind of objective metrics to quantify it. Here's a starting point: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Economist_Democracy_Index

Palestine is not part of the Israel government, so why would it fall under its democracy? Israel treats Palestine as a foreign terrorist state. Democracy does not apply outside one's boarder. At least not in today's world. Maybe in 500 years.

Ramana was one of the most spiritual gifted humans on the planet. If he struggles to do it than it's a pipe dream, not a serious solution to mankind's issues. There is definitely potential in that. But even then there's gonna be some hard genetic ceiling. These kids are not gonna be shooting fireballs out their asses. -
@Danioover9000 Do not ninja-flood our Spiral mega-threads with your Destiny clips. Stop it!

It's just a silly buzz phrase they like to say. -
1) Russia is a very kleptocractic and corrupt state which will spread that corruption around the globe. That will not be a good world to do business in. 2) There are international laws against invading and annexing soverign countries, which Russia itself signed and agreed to. There is an international order to maintain. Otherwise any country can invade whoever it wants. We've already lived in that kind of world and it ends in disaster and genocide.

I have never met or seen any human spiritual teacher who can download volumes of knowledge telepathically directly into my mind. This is not a capacity any normal or even exceptionally spiritually-gifted human has. Some New Age people may claim to be able to do this, but upon closer scrutiny you'll find that they cannot. Humans, genetically, are not telepathic communicators. Those aliens are. Even Ramana Marhashi was not able to heal his own cancer. So expecting normal humans to be capable of that is absurd and borders on gaslighting. Spirituality alone will not solve all human problems. There are hard material conditions which are at play. A bullet to the head will kill human and alien alike regradless of how much you meditate or pray. -

I didn't say healing or siddhis are impossible. It's just not the case that humans have the same spiritual capacities as aliens because genetics matters. Just because aliens can magically heal themselves does not mean humans can. Many humans suffer from illness and with no remedy, and no amount of New Age woo will save them. If these aliens can heal themselves, that's certainly possible. But that doesn't mean humans can do the same. -

No problem. Dream away and enjoy it. You're still gonna be dreaming even if you Awaken. The purpose of the dream is for it to be enjoyed and appreciated. Don't make it into a chore. -
Leo Gura replied to Carl-Richard's topic in Spirituality, Consciousness, Awakening, Mysticism, Meditation, God
The whole question is backwards. Consciousness is all there ever was. It's as silly as asking if space extends beyond your house. Space isn't in your house, your house is in space. -

Go for it! Just plan out your meal logistics before you start. -

I don't think you can get a more accurate picture than the original sketch. It is very specific and clear. The only downside to it is that it doesn't show various angles and details of the hands and feet. -
1) There are MANY degrees of democracy, like a scale from 0 to 1000. And no country is anywhere close to 1000. Being closer towards 1000 is better than being closer to 0. 2) Democracy as it is practiced today is too weak to assure equality. But it at least prevents tyranny and insane injustice. The closer you get to 1000 the more equal and just things get.

That sounds good in theory but in practice you might live to regret such a policy. Geopolitics is too complicated and intertangled to just allow one large country to gobble up another large country without any pushback. If you just let Russia run amok it will build itself into an empire and spread its corruption around the world like a virus. Look at Dugin's gameplan. It basically leads to civilizational war between the West and Eur-Asia.

There are credible reports that the US tanked a peace deal. The US definitely cares more about weakening Russia than it does about saving Ukrainian lives. It's not clear how much Russia has been weakened. In a sense Russia might be stronger despite the loss of lives because they have been forced to become more self-reliant as an economy and to ally closer with China and other authoritarian regimes. Also, the land, ports, and natural resources that Russia gains from annexing land strengthens their geopolitical position and economy. - - - - - - There's not really a good solution here. That's the problem. It's not at all clear what kind of peace Putin would agree to. He could agree to a peace and then attack again whenever he senses an opportunity. Allowing Putin to get away easily with annexation also sets a bad precedent. What if he wants to annex Moldova next? In the end I think Ukrainians have to decide whether they want to fight or not, without being pressured by the West.
-
On the other hand, what do you want? To let Putin annex a whole country with no resistance? And don't blame this primarily on the US. Ukrainians themselves want to fight Putin because the force of nationalism is very potent.

Yes

@Francis777 No, it's not trauma. Amibiton is a personality trait and it comes on a bell curve. Most mega successful business people are extremely high in ambition.
