Sempiternity replied to AION's topic in Spirituality, Consciousness, Awakening, Mysticism, Meditation, God
That was exactly my first thought. All there is, is what is within consciousness, what is being experienced through direct experience, right Now. If one were to get on a boat and travel around the world, all that would be true would be what Now is being experienced through direct experience, Now. There is no what happened before or where you'll go next, as that is all a mental projection/fantasy, that can only exist Now as a thought. -

Why would Democrats even consider this? As of right now, they are winning, according to pretty much every poll conducted nation wide. And their lead is most likely going to get better every day until the election. If they made a deal with Trump, and let him get away with everything, they'd themselves would look like criminals. This would only hurt their image of 'for the people', with nothing at all to gain. If they just go on as they are, Harris will win by a landslide, and Trump will lose everything, be hamulated, and most likely get convicted of at least one of his crimes and go to prison for the rest of his life, as the final chapter of his life and legacy, having finally the bill of consequences finally come due. -

This is a lie. The word "Jesus" is documented fact in every piece of reporting on the subject, and "Jesus" can be heard clear as day. -

'Rebuke' means to disagree. She commented on why the cops were backing up when she was picking up the pot of water. The cop said something about worrying she might throw hot water on them. She basically said that she disagrees with that point of view. She just said it in a weird way. The cop took that as a threat and pulled out his gun and shot her in the head. -

Well, it's not every day one gets to watch someone murder a little old lady making tea in her kitchen. That was wild. Hope he goes to prison for the rest of his life. -

I haven't seen Harris do a speech since she was primarying 4 years ago. I didn't like her back then. She seemed fake. And haven't had any interest in seeing her talk since. But, since she is running for president, I thought I'd listen to her speeches. And to my surprise...I really like her now. She seems genuine, joyous, loving, friendly, easy-going, community oriented. It doesn't seem like she is 'giving a speech', and more just being herself and talking to an audience. Color me completely on-board with her. I'm relieved and happy with the direction this is going. -

One thing that almost never gets brought up about Buttigieg (spell it right, Leo ) is that he is gay and married to a man. And that's awesome that it is not discussed, as it should be normal and not an issue. And someone's sexuality should not be even mentioned in politics. I only bring it up, because it'd be pretty awesome to have a gay person as vice president, and maybe one day even president. It's huge for the gay rights movement, and for representation. It's come a long way in a short amount of time, from black people and gay people being persecuted and killed regularly (of course they still are, but not like 40-50 years ago) in this country, to them being the potential president/vice president. That's some major progression of society. Just a thought that came up. -

I love Bernie, but the answer to everyone's concerns about Biden being too old, is not to pick someone even older. -
https://www.timesofisrael.com/biden-could-drop-out-of-presidential-race-as-early-as-this-weekend-report-suggests/+ Adam Schiff, US House Democratic leader Hakeem Jeffries, US Senate Democratic leader Chuck Schumer and former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, even Obama, all asking him to step down, it's over. If he stays in, Trump wins. IMO, with some new blood, to invigorate people's excitement in the election, by maybe having a somewhat decent candidate to choose from, we have a chance. Question for those that closely follow this election: 1) Who do you think is a good candidate? 2) Who do you think will actually get the nomination? 3) What chances do you think we have in turning around an entire presidential campaign with a new candidate to be able to win in less than 4 months?

@Nevar People nowadays have extremely short attention spans. i think what matters to alot of voters is what is in front of them right before voting occurs. If there is a fresh new candidate with alot of buzz around them, then that could be what voters will flock to. Most Democrat voters don't want to vote for Biden, and only will because it's the only choice. If given a better option, I would think most all Democrats would happily vote for the new and better option. -

@Hardkill Thoughtful response. Who would you see being the best replacement then? -
Sempiternity replied to Sempiternity's topic in Society, Politics, Government, Environment, Current Events
Looks like a factor is when he drops out. If before the nomination, the delegates could pick another candidate. Otherwise, the Democratic congressional leaders recommend the replacement, and the Democratic National Committee votes on that replacement. It'd be good for their cuase to do it before the nomination. https://www.nbcnews.com/data-graphics/biden-drop-out-presidential-race-election-flowchart-rcna161440 -

Glad you think so too. He's smart, articulate, knows his history, knows American government policies, he's an endless wealth of facts and information. Just watch him in this video. This is no script-written teleprompter speech. This is him just talking about what he's passionate about. He's just damned impressive imo. -

1) My top choice would be Gavin Newsom. Second choice, Pete Buttigieg. 2) They'll give it to Kamala Harris. I think this is a bad choice. They'll go with it because it's safe, but she's unpopular and not very likable in general, so it's a mistake imo. 3) Hard to say. I think a new fresh candidate could blow up in the race, if done properly. It'd no longer be a race between a dementia patient with one foot in the grave, and a dictator that will destroy the country. With a good candidate, it could install some faith back in the process, some excitement back into the race, give some hope, and turn the tides. -

They are already defending him and making excuses and saying they will not "turn their back on him". They will back him till the bitter end. -
Sempiternity replied to VictorB02's topic in Society, Politics, Government, Environment, Current Events
Substance, truth and logic, is not what most Americans are looking at. They're looking at strength, and if the President is going to be fit for office. Biden proved he's weak and not fit for office. That will sway the razor thin margin of Independant voters. As the last person just posted. Trump won 67% to Biden 33%. That's enough to tip the scales and win the election. -
Sempiternity replied to VictorB02's topic in Society, Politics, Government, Environment, Current Events
I think this panel here did the best analysis I've seen yet. America is in trouble. Until recently Trump was leading in the polls. After Biden's poor performance here, he's done. Trump is going to regain the lead. And we have 129 days until the election. All Trump has to do is not get jailed in those 129 days and he will win. Then he'll pardon himself, and turn the US into a Dictatorship. Making MAGA ideals into the doctrine of the new America. What will the Democrats do now? It's obvious to everyone Biden cannot come back from this. He can't do another debate. Can they force him out and push a new candidate in those 129 days, and have a chance? But they won't do that, they will double down, stick their heads in the sand, and continue to back a feeble old man with no chance of winning. That is if Biden can even stay alive for the next 129 days. We're fucked. -
I thought you were a big advocate for DPT? In 2019, it seemed like it was your new favorite. What changed?

Oh it's great going alone to festivals. In fact I recommend it. When you go with friends, you have a security blanked, so you could be less inclines to go outside your comfort zone and talk with other people. When alone you may be more prone to go hang with others, make new friends, and magical things happen then. You can be swept away on grand adventures with people who've been doing festivals for years and know how to make the most of it.

*You don't have to be into some of these to go to them and meet great spiritual women. Ideally you're into it, and maybe once you attend, you'll get into it. I guess I'm saying don't let not being into something stop you from going. You'll have a great time regardless. Looks like there are 4 Burning Man regional events in your area. Highly recommended to meet awesome people. https://regionals.burningman.org/regionals/europe/uk/ EDM festivals are a great place to meet young beautiful lust-for-life woman. https://www.skiddle.com/news/all/The-Best-UK-Dance-and-EDM-Festivals/57200/ Spiritual gatherings: https://highvibeliving2020.medium.com/the-7-best-festivals-in-the-uk-that-you-probably-havent-heard-of-e31cfd58dff5 https://awakenedspirit.co.uk https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/mystical-spiritual-holistic-wiccan-event-tickets-846266454747 https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/zenfest-spiritual-mind-body-and-soul-event-tickets-902196713657 https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/mind-body-spirit-wellbeing-festival-2024-tickets-876599311137 https://www.eventbrite.com/e/glastonburys-lions-gate-portal-of-remembrance-tickets-901943696877?aff=ebdssbdestsearch https://www.eventbrite.com/e/77-portal-mind-body-spirit-fayre-tickets-914733742247?aff=ebdssbdestsearch&keep_tld=1 https://www.eventbrite.com/e/awakened-spirit-festival-tickets-718438939207?aff=ebdssbdestsearch&keep_tld=1 https://www.eventbrite.com/e/glastonbury-sacred-drum-circle-tickets-880829393427?aff=ebdssbdestsearch&keep_tld=1 https://www.eventbrite.com/e/witch-hazels-magickal-market-2024-tickets-767498557847?aff=ebdssbdestsearch&keep_tld=1

It's been my experience that festivals are the best place to meet awesome women. I've met nearly all my girlfriends there. But it depends on what kind of festival you're going to. Some music festival, you might meet some stage blue or orange women. But if you go to a spiritual based love festival (see Shambhala), you're going to meet more stage green or yellow. I'd look into local Burning Man regionals close to you, or similar type festivals in your area (if you share with me your general area, I can help you look). Just go and have a good time, meet people, go dance with them, and you'll eventually run into an awesome woman there that's available. It's actually quite easy.

Time is right Now. Consciousness can only exist right Now. Everything happens within Consciousness. Nothing exists outside of Consciousness. Everything is one thing, Consciousness. Consciousness=Everything=Mind=Imagination. Everything Now is one mind's imagination, including any memories, thoughts of a backstory/history, and any concepts like Time. Any memory of a 'past' can only exist Now as a thought. Now is all there is. It has no beginning and no end and is eternal. -

You're welcome. Yes, that is right. And yes, best way to remember you're God is to wake up from the dream = death=God consciousness, is 5-MEO (high enough dose+surrendering to death).
