- Cold shower before sleep helps my sleep. - I deliberately designed and chose this life. - A mistake is ultimately not a mistake

Something that threatens the illusory ego. A story, though.

Like this ? (absolutely speaking) Relatively speaking, none knows, but my guess is the world would be pretty boring. We would probably need a new Big Bang for some excitement. Of course, the goal for Us is 'the Singularity', and naturally, one way or the other, We will get there. After that, We will probably bathe in this Eternal Oneness for some infinite amount of time, before getting bored of it, and then create a new universe, i.e. a new dream, a new physical reality with apparant dualities embbeded into it - like the one We are experiencing now?

The body is whatever you want it to be. Can be a disease, sure. Can also be a temple. Or a vessle for light/love. Depends on how you interpret/view it and most importantly on how you treat it. Of course in the greater schemes of things the body, including everything else, is a divine magical miracle manifested in the mind of God.

I think it's quite simple why you can't be awake 24/7. There is no you, that's why. As long as you insist on there being 'a you' that can be x or y, well you will remain feeling like a separate self.

Beautiful, thank YOU❤️??

Probably mdma therapy. MDMA shuts down fear in the brain, allowing you to access trauma/intense memories without fear, allowing you to process them properly

Nice

You should listen to some Alan Watts on youtube. These two short ones are incredible, then maybe progress to his full talks. Stay strong, I wish you the best ❤️

That's depression, dont sugar coat it. Talk to someone. Exercise, meditate, do the hard thing, practice self love Also on a more spiritual note, it's interesting to see that you don't know who you are, and yet you are absolutely sure life -- with all its ups and downs -- isn't something you wished for. You ain't happy about life, yet you don't know who you are. Consider that it is actually possible to really find out who "I am" (who you are) and that this "revelation" will also reveal to you that life was actually something the real , *actual* , you wanted. That's why you are experiencing what you're experiencing.

Beta-glucans (a type of fiber) found in oats seem to have a positive impact on intestinal health: https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&rct=j&url=https://www.ernaehrungs-umschau.de/fileadmin/Ernaehrungs-Umschau/pdfs/pdf_2020/03_20/EU03_2020_PR_Glei_engl_Ansicht.pdf&ved=2ahUKEwimvPut_MbvAhWoxIsKHWBoAIsQFjAAegQIARAC&usg=AOvVaw2tRYtA9p5jdglrY84mmk91&cshid=1616521645846 "Conclusion β-glucans have a variety of effects that are relevant to health. The potential of this group of substances to reduce both choles- terol and postprandial glucose concentrations has been proven in a large number of studies and has been confirmed by the EFSA with health claims in the context of authorizations. However, the current data is less clear-cut in terms of effects on intestinal health markers. Nevertheless, there is increasing scientific evi- dence that β-glucans have positive effects on intestinal parame- ters. For example, studies show that regular consumption of foods that contain β-glucan is associated with increased formation of health-promoting short-chain fatty acids, with a favorable effect on the intestinal microbiome, with activation of the intestinal im- mune system and with a strengthened intestinal barrier, as well as with a reduction of inflammatory processes in the intestine. Therefore, consumption of at least 3 g of β-glucans per day ap- pears to be advisable for intestinal health."

The mechanism of this action may be based on the activation of TLRs and Dectin-1 receptor and depends on the period of exacerbation or remission of CD."

If machines can't get free will, we humans aren't free either, since we're also electric machines. Artificial / natural is a distinction made by humans. A duality. If your consciousness is elevated enough it will collapse (like all other dualities for that matter, including free will vs pre-determined/random will. If you build a machine with complex enough neural networks build on complex enough algorithms run on sophisticated enough hardware, then sure, apparant free will as a phenomenon will emerge, just like it did in biological life (humans). It'll take some years still, but no doubt it will happen. But what's REALLY going on is that everything is actually intelligently designed -- the whole of 'IT' is God/Love/Consciousness which is infinite in every way, including 'will' - it's will is so infinitely eternally powerful, that it can make up stuff with seemingly 'no free will', e.g. stones, clouds, bacteria, trees, fishes, birds, dogs, apes, humans (opps, we do have free will all of a sudden?). It's magic. The stones and trees and mosquitos can also be said to have free will in the sense that they -- like everything else -- are God manifested in form, i.e it's you and it's all your doing/imagination and the answer is always LOVE ❤️❤️❤️

adrift in love

even though his criticism of Leo is very taken-out-of-context and largely false, he has some points, and it's healthy to listen to some criticism some times=)

<3 lovely, hehe

reality is *pushes a gong* and we won't give it a name.

all the users on this forum replying to you are also just parts of your own being, hehe, its all one, i.e. you. Real and not real all at once;)

psychedelics can be great teachers you then gotta put in the work your self psychedelics surely have helped me become more in tune with my emotions, thus also more loving I'd say yes

Widen your definition of 'I' or 'you'. Maslow's breakthrough might just happen to be his death. There needs to be evil in the world, for the same reason that there needs to be conflict/evil in a movie for it to be a good film. It's all love bro, one day you will see.

Psychedelics or a hefty meditation practice works to melt the beliefs down. The answer to your question is survival, and beliefs are one of its most powerful tools

Nope, there is no logical explanation possible in language for your question. Thank god for that. Imagine if there were???!!!....realitywouldn't be reality anymore, everything would turn to nothingness, all mystery gone. The only answer we can give to the question is that you in fact are Leo, me and Trump, just as much as you are 'insert your own name'. And that you chose this experience of seemingly separate povs/selves for the thrill of it. Actually, Oneness is the case/truth. But this isn't something that can be understood through words or logic.

There is if you imagine one:D In any case there is the 'Universal I' - that which imagines. But now we are putting a label on that which can't be labeled. It isn't a thing. It's just pure beingness. Rambling on...xD

That Rumi quote is gold.

From a higher perspective, all that is going on is Reality/God/Love/Consciousness/Universe eating itself :->
