  1. It's gonna vary too much. Why do you need some average? It's just going to create distortions in your mind.
  2. All form and experience is Absolute. It's that simple. Brahman is everything. This discussion is ridiculous.
  3. Be careful with this. Don't get wrapped up and distracted by politics and negativity. Focus on your life purpose. Following too much politics is a mistake that you will regret. Be creative, be constructive. Listening to progressives constantly whine about how bad the world is, is a trap.
  4. I'll give you 1 reason: electoral college
  5. We are not talking about individual guys, we are talking about a sub-culture. Pickup is a toxic sub-culture, and it makes itself look bad with its attitude and approach towards women. A respectable person would not want to be associated with such a sub-culture.
  6. @Michael Jackson Could you be any more obnoxious in your strawman critique? Your awakenings are making you a dick. Notice that.
  7. Don't take notes, just underline text with a pen.
  8. The article is correct that pickup culture is sexist, toxic, manipulative, and fundamentally dysfunctional. Incel culture is even worse. I have always said that. Nevertheless, go out and talk to girls. What most guys do in a toxic way you can do in a healthier way. You don't have to buy into pickup culture. Just learn to socialize with girls.
  9. If you don't see the danger of these morons running the country you are blind.
  10. People can just have different preferences. It's not a big deal. Try both.
  11. They are the substance of reality, and all distinctions are imaginary and boil down to nothing. Reality is an absolute illusion made of nothing.
  12. Yes, but it needs to get recontextualized for you. See video on Recontextualization. False. Absolute Truth includes motion and change. That's not how you find Absolute Truth. Both states and A amd B are Abaolute Truth, the problem is just you are not recognizing it. Watch my videos: What Is Truth? And, Relative vs Absolute Truth. Truth is simply all raw experience of any kind.
  13. He's just so attached to his academic rational mind that it terrifies him to lose it. Infinity will break your mind.
  14. Raw perception is of course interpreted and assembled into a kind of augemented reality by the ego mind. But it would be best to distinguish that from belief.
  15. LP Course guides you through finding your top 10 values.
  16. 1) The way you're asking for the date is not optimal. First of all, never call it a "date". Next, you should build a bit of connection before you ask her out. Not too much connection, but something a bit clever and funny is nice. Get her used to responding to you and interested in you. Next, you should make the request as low-compliance as possible. "Let's grab a coffee sometime this week." Don't mention a specific date/time. Wait til she responds before specifying that. Next, it is crucial that you discuss and seed the coffee date when you are getting her phone number in-person. You must tell her that you two will get a coffee together later that week and ask her what her schedule is like, when she's busy and when she's free. Get her to agree in-person. This increase your date rate a lot. All the work is done in-person, not via text. 2) Even if you ask for the date optimally, many girls will just ignore (which means decline). Don't take is personally. Most girls will decline.
  17. Yes! Exactly. Finite love is finite. Which is why its so difficult. The only uncompromising love is one in which you have no self to preserve.
  18. It's not so complicated. A belief is something you hold as true of reality which isn't strictly part of your direct experience. For example, you believe the Earth is round. We can test that you believe this because if I started saying the Earth is flat, you would disagree and start to argue on the grounds that that is false. So a belief is a sort of truth claim about something which isn't part of your direct experience. Beliefs don't have to come from other, they can come from yourself. You generate many beliefs on your own based on assumptions, speculation, guess-work, and sense-making.
  19. @Blackhawk Stop trolling UFO threads. You're not adding anything.
  20. Consciousness is nothing. There is nothing outside nothing.
  21. Locked for low quality.
