That's fascinating. Do you often do that?

Well said and I absolutely agree. Even the identity of “one who has awakened” must eventually fall away. Otherwise, spirituality becomes just another costume the mind wears to avoid disappearing. -

Lmao, isn't that unusual? -

I wonder if part of the exhaustion comes from trying to hold everything at once—the whole ocean instead of the next breath or the next step. Maybe steadiness doesn’t come from comprehending the entire cascade, but from recognizing which currents we’re actually responding to in a given moment. We don’t need to know what’s doing all the bumping to orient ourselves. Sometimes it’s enough to notice where we are, how we’re reacting, and what helps us stay balanced—without turning the chaos into a cosmic verdict. -

Do you think they're delusional too? -
We don’t move from not knowing straight into wisdom—we pass through assumptions, partial clarity, and even false certainty. That’s often how understanding refines itself. Maybe the mistake wasn’t “thinking you knew,” but holding on to that knowing too tightly. Openness isn’t just saying I don’t know—it’s also being willing to let go the moment reality contradicts our assumptions, without turning it into self-punishment. You couldn’t have fully avoided it, because insight often only arrives after experience. What you can carry forward is humility, curiosity, and a softer grip on conclusions. Not as fear—just as flexibility.

What would your opinion be about buddhist monks that can withstand any temperature? -
I get where you’re coming from. When basic things like money, stability, or companionship feel missing, it’s hard to care about meditation or yoga. Survival needs are real, and pretending otherwise just creates more frustration. That said, practices like meditation or yoga aren’t meant to replace fixing your life or meeting practical needs. They’re tools, not solutions by themselves. If they’re adding pressure, guilt, or a sense that you’re “failing spiritually,” it’s okay to step back. There’s no punishment for stopping. You won’t regret listening to what you genuinely need right now. Regret usually comes from forcing yourself to follow someone else’s path instead of responding honestly to your own circumstances. If and when meditation feels supportive again, it’ll find its way back naturally. Until then, focusing on grounding, work, relationships, and small tangible steps is not a step backward — it’s part of being human. Nothing is wasted. Even the year you practiced taught your nervous system something. You don’t lose that just because you pause.

It sounds like you’re doing okay, even if it doesn’t feel that way right now. The path to spiritual awakening isn’t comfortable or pleasant. First, the familiar joys and positive emotions seem to drain away, and then the heavier emotions rise to the surface to be felt and released. Before my own awakening, everything felt ominous. There was a constant sense of impending doom, shadows felt alive, and I felt disconnected from myself—almost mechanical, as if I were losing my humanity. And then, quietly, something beautiful unfolded. Not through force or understanding, but through acceptance. Let whatever arises pass through you. There’s nothing you need to fix or chase. Even hope can be gently set down for now. What’s real will meet you where you are. -

That's terrible. -
The worst example of conformity is green smoothie and the vegan all fruit diets.

How can you say you don't need money? Whose paying your internet? -

The cope is astounding. They need to lick the taste of defeat sooner or later.

I don't think you're responding correctly. You are directly assigning blame when it was a simple question. I'm not able to get the gist of your posts.

Maybe he will say something about Venezuela or some other nonsense distraction.

How should they be helping according to you?

You can always choose another one. Also what exactly happened? Cognitive biases are tough to get past.

Because authenticity goes against the grain. Polarity of vibes is magnetic to people as it appeals to their deeper selves that are hard to express. Authentic people seem to act like channelers or messengers. So people tune in. -
The amount of iterations in evolution to accumulate to what we have now is staggering.

What about new year resolutions? I find it mundane and conformist given how everyone has something overlapping and repeating all the time, copied goals, most people are blinding repeating other's lists.
