  1. You can find some enlightenment intensives here: https://www.sandoth.com/
  2. Consciousness is all well and good. But it is not God-realization. The point is not to realize everything is consciousness -- of course it is. The point is the realize you are the one and only God. To speak of form and formlessness is really missing the point. That's far too disconnected from your own Godhood. Be careful talking about Truth as something impersonal. It's YOU!
  3. The problem with your logic is that all the impermament stuff (form) is also equally consciousness, and is also Absolute. You have denied the absoluteness and truth of form, creating a duality between form and formless. You have also denied absolute truth to impermanence, which is false. Your logic is too clever for its own good.
  4. I think what's happening IS the radical reform. It's just that radical reform doesn't feel or look all clean-cut the way you expect it should based on history. History as it's told to you is very oversimplified and cartoonish. The realities of radial reform are dirty, chaotic, murky -- you cannot easily even tell that something good is happening. Think of how the Civil War appeared to people at the time. It did not look or feel like reform or progress. Progress comes with a lot of backlash and resistance. That's what we are seeing. We are going through a transition from Orange to Green, and this is what it looks like. It's long and messy. Progress has always been long and messy. Please stop with the gaslighting.
  5. Learn to have deeper sex.
  6. But they won't overrule it because they have decided that the Constitution doesn't protect abortion at all. So a ban is perfectly legal now. It's just a giant waste of time. Congress flips back and forth.
  7. It's hard to say. I tend to believe that progress will happen long-term. But it won't be as fast as you guys want. Progress usually requires periods of facing pain before people wise up. That's where we are at now.
  8. Sperm can still be extracted with a needle after a vasectomy. The problem is that they won't just settle for that, they want to ban abortion nationwide. The abortion issue is fundamentalist in nature. It is based on religious dogma, without which it would not be an issue at all, like in most of Europe. Conversatives are not being honest actors here. For example, they say abortion is not mentioned by the Consitition, okay. But open carry and assault rifles are also not mentioned in the Consitution. How about we let each state decide to ban private firearm sales? 2nd Amendment says nothing about firearm sales, it talks only about a militia. So Conservatives are full of shit. It's not intellectually honest. This states rights stuff has always been BS. If Conservatives are given the chance they will happily ban abortion nationwide. It is incorrect to impose one's religious dogma on everyone in your state. That's what the abortion issue boils down to.
  9. Ketamine is way inferior to a proper psychedelic, at least for me. It will be hard to reach a deep God-realization on K.
  10. Enough of these silly questions from you.
  11. https://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=the shit Many other psychedelics can get you there.
  12. There's a lot of work to do for building a conscious society than just electing stage Yellow+ politicians.
  13. @evgn Check that your depression and misery isn't coming from some other aspect of your life. She sounds like a good girl. Don't just throw it away. And also, why don't you like having sex with her???
  14. @patricknotstar Your best bet is to have an honest conversation with her where you express your genuine regret over your behavior and tell her how you will make sure that doesn't happen again in the future and how you will smooth thing over with her family in the future. You can make this a good self-growth opportunity. It's okay to make mistakes as long as you learn from them.
  15. I think you're over-analyzing this daughter situation since it's a pretty unique situation. Hard to draw clear conclusions from that. The drunk stuff is more telling, if that bothers you. But also not necessarily a problem if he's not a chronic drinker. Getting drunk once on your birthday isn't really a big deal.
  16. Not really true since the guy is legally obligated to pay child support. Guys don't want spare babies to support either. Getting the wrong girl pregnant can be worse than catching an STD. 1) That's what condoms are. 2) That's what vasectomy is. Firstly, you gotta make sure to keep working on yourself and embody a positive and constructive outlook. Then, you can do all sorts of stuff like vote, volunteer, donate, organize, protest, educate, and even run for office.
  17. Look, the nature of democracy is majority rule. Not everyone can have their way.
  18. All depends on you. For me waking up is the shit. You may feel otherwise. It's too profound to speak. If you understood it, your jaw would drop the floor.
  19. Introverts live in their minds. My mind is more interesting than a nightclub.
  20. The US has very strong minority protections. It's not like the minority will be enslaved.
