  1. Ye, I became a Hindu couple weeks ago lol
  2. I want to see Bryan Cranston on k
  3. Just be sure to intuitively distinguish between good pain and bad pain like at the gym
  4. I love Leo with my whole heart, but I do feel like lots of courses can be a bit more than what's needed. I believe purpose is found when the mind relaxes. What your head calculates you should do and what your heart yearns for are different, and as long as the head is in charge, your fighting uphill. You know it's also ok to just chill and keep doing whatever you love with the whole finding a purpose thing in the back burner. I personally don't believe in forcing anymore. People bloom at different times as well. Forcing it forward could end up crumpling the flower. Mind confuses itself. where possible keep it @SimpleGuy Some simple questions I've found useful are: if one thing you see stood out as something that could be improved in the world what would it be? Where do you see a discrepancy? You've got the million dollar question: if you were rich and money was no object, what would you do (other than holidays and video games)? People spend their entire lives saving enough money so they can eventually retire and do what they love. Why not just start with what you love
  5. Yo what the fuck is this guy talking about
  6. I think this guy pretends to have a class Infront of him. You can tell his micro movements he has no humans Infront of him and his voice echoes too cleanly. The rooms empty. Or maybe one person sitting to his left.. maybe duno
  7. 5 is meant to be used like dynamite for clearing hard rock in caves, massive one offs with swift but gradual build ups then stoppage. Don't mistake it for daily medicine, you can destabilise your brain chemistry. Very little and very often is a recipie for disaster I think
  8. Leo can I get clarification on this. I'd assume you'd agree that it's useful to have some kind of trinket or object that belonged to a dead relative to keep in the house that is comforting to you because you accociate it with the dead relative... Like there's a real connection in the mind there, the association between the object (maybe a gift you gave to the dead relative) and the dead relative themselves. Or even a photograph of the dead relative. Of course the photograph isn't the dead relative it's just a representation...but The emotion you feel when you look at a photograph of a dead relative is real. If reality is unlimited imagination is it not alright to use images and pictures in the mind if they help you connect with God? (Image of jesus/Buddha/Krishna etc.) And I know that this analogy isn't exactly right and I know that gaining direct access to god would be like raising the relative from the dead. But until that happens, surely it's acceptable to use whatever means necessary to gain some kind of experiential connection with god from a picture? Like the starting ground... (If the person can maintain at all times a subtle awareness that the map isn't the territory and there is more). Is it not alright to use images with this in mind? Like at the end of the day we need to have some kind of faith to begin the path to enlightenment and that usually comes associated with some kind of picture, a picture we know we will someday transcend and replace with the real thing.. @Leo Gura Although I might be underestimating the power of mental pictures and their influence in manipulating or warping the mind of the holder of the picture...like this guy's saying Jesus died for our sins. That's clearly not what I'm talking about. The more I think about it, the more I'm starting to realise that a person needs to be quite epistemically skilled to use pictures without becoming too deluded.
  9. Materialism is baloney - Bernardo Kastrup
  10. Its entire plot and context is moving very overtly in the direction of mystical concepts... reincarnation, mindfulness, mental discipline.. I mean the entire idea of the anamus is predicated on a reality that isn't real. I suppose it's not surprising. The game itself is beautiful, very nice pace, good difficulty calibration...simple, yet profound. It's looking like a winner, and twice as long as mirage. Super polished. Some real meat to sink your teeth into. Everything about it looks good, only played the opening few bits so far.
  11. Gpt Here’s a very condensed status based on recent public reports: Jordan Peterson was hospitalized after developing pneumonia and sepsis, spent almost a month in the ICU. He was diagnosed with critical illness polyneuropathy (nerve damage associated with severe illness). His daughter states he has Chronic Inflammatory Response Syndrome (CIRS), an immune-dysfunction she links to mold exposure; this diagnosis is controversial and not universally accepted in mainstream medicine. He has extreme sensitivities to medications (limiting treatment options), and recovery is expected to be prolonged. While he is reportedly out of intensive care now, he remains very ill and the timeline for full recovery is uncertain. In short: his condition is serious. He’s stabilized somewhat, but the health trajectory is precarious and progress is gradual and uncertain. GPTend
  12. Image links from this site aren't avail in the uk
  13. This tourist guy meets Taliban (after 6:30 mark). They seem chill. I mean, not aggro or anything
  14. From their perspective their freedom fighters. Most peeps who act terribly see themselves as freedom fighters. The view is "we're being attacked, we need to do something, so let's adopt the darkness of our opponent."
  15. Should we be allowed to customise our profiles? Anyone?
  16. Appreciate it a lot man, watch out for drugs...legal or illegal. Doc medication can have bad side effects and can begin to outweigh positives. But if your on any kind of illicit drugs, it's probably that. Or if your not on them, you could think about trying some mdma therapy. As long as you think you're safe from addiction, and to be safe as long as you don't have friends who use it, MDMA psychedelic assisted therapy can be very cool you can even get paid to do it from a psychedelic assisted therapy center that is going through clinical trial phases. But you would really have to guard yourself as if your not strong it can be very very difficult to pry that shit away
  17. I think the difficulty with solipsism is that an ego tends to imagine that it is total isolation when it's more like freedom togetherness i don't imagine it would be something that feels bad at all. Stage turquoise is unitary and not individualised in SD. Leo gave me some advice, told me that awakening is basically not what I think it is. I think the best way to proceed is to just have unlimited scepticism on the mind and to think at all times "these ideas are probably bullshit," when you think about what awakening feels like. To basically assume that anything you think awakening is...is likely a massive smelly pile of cow poo.
  18. Jim Carrey advised allowing yourself to have deep rest when you feel you need it as well as skin care routine for young people. Check out the wrinkles. Look him up his wrinkles are bad (I'm also just now picking up that sun exposure is bad for skin). #genius
  19. This one seems good For motivation
