? Taking a look at his posts, this seems to me once again the same conceptual jungle and emotional suppression that is widespread in this community. Is it just me, or are you too seeing more people committing suicide than waking up on this forum?

Take a moment to think if you would actually want that. Think about how radically it would change your life and thought patterns if Consilience would actually demonstrate that here and now. What comes to telepathy, reincarnation and such... It's a total game changer. When you actually remember your past life, just as you remember your childhood right now, and when you actually glimpse psychic phenomena directly, beyond any doubt, it's not a joke. It's real. Not some debate subject on the internet.

This might sound kind of weird advice, but try the Nahms dreamboard thing, and crystals. Write down what you want on the board and start wearing a crystal around your neck. Why I'm recommending this is because you can't grasp neither with mind and sense-making. It's reeaaally subtle, but it works.

I'm not gonna blame the world. Not when it leads to drug addiction and mental health crisis.

I don't have much experience, though enough to say that this past life stuff is not arbitrarily made-up. You actually remember, just as you remember your childhood right now. It is just as authentic memory, and it truly changes how you see life.

You're probably missing the point

What?!?? What do they use for shaving? Obsidian?

Weirdly clean cuts and shaved faces

One infinite mind would mean no restriction and no boundary. Literally absolute, complete freedom. It would be no problem creating togetherness. Though I know nothing about infinite minds and such.

I'm gonna throw a god damn temper tantrum if it's not

What media and culture often portrays as pedophilia is not the actual paraphilia. The actual definition of pedophilia is sexual desire towards children before the age of sexual maturity. So I don't think you can explain it by evolution and biological survival. Pedophilia is more like a psycho-sexual disorder.

2 is my lucky number. Been seeing it a lot for a long time. For me, 2 is freedom and unconditional joy. Happy 2022!

Would be good that both 'sides' acknowledge what 'a side' serves, which is fear and projection.

Fear of death is actually allure of death. It's just something what fear (which is avoiding life) is projected on, and as. There is no need whatsoever for holding beliefs and narratives about death and falsehood. But many do, because they're running from life and feeling. Often feelings such as unworthiness, quilt, etc.

What do you mean with "middle" and "way"?

How I sense it, "faith" has a bit different connotation than "belief". Faith is joyful, loving, free thought. Belief is holding on to thought.

This is for two reasons, one is because I have some physical/mental/emotional weirdness going on and another is that I'm interested in this energy stuff. I've been having arrhythmia for about three weeks. It's not that unusual for me, it's quite normal for me to have some arrythmia every now and then. But now it's been going on for unusually long. Basically every time I lie down my hearbeat goes weird. It's happening right now as I'm writing, there is out-of-rhythm beats almost constantly. Some emotions seem to be linked to the arrhythmia: frustration, fear, and feeling a bit 'disconnected' from life. There are thoughts as if the heart could stop at any second, and it feels kind of disorienting. Yesterday as I was going to sleep, there was a sudden pain in my chest right between wakefulness and falling asleep. I don't think it was physcal pain, it felt more like energy. It lasted for like a second, it made me alert, and some panicy thoughts followed. I started experiencing thoughts that made it seem like I was going to die that night, like at some point the heart will fail. It felt very acute, as if it was going to happen right there and then. It was almost like some near-death experience. I could imagine myself dead in clarity, I could see my heart stopping, me floating above my dead body. It felt a bit like a mystical experience. But I managed to calm down, focus on breathing and letting the thoughts go. Yet, the arrythmia continues this morning. This arrhythmia is quite likely not any dangerous type, but I will see a doctor if it will not get better. I'm not asking any diagnosis or miracles from you, just curious to see what you get from this. If you can do a distant energy reading, see my aura or something like that, I'd be super interested to hear what you see. What could this arrythmia be about, emotionally/energetically speaking?

This is one of those things that keeps coming back to mind, and it keeps me 'stuck'. So basically I don't see what I want to do for a living, and I don't even see any hobbies or things that truly inspire me. I believe I need to do something in order to live, I need to have a job. But I can't find any carreer options that feels right to me. I could do pretty much anything. I could become a doctor, a lawyer, a politician, a philosopher, a journalist, a musician or a freakin energy healer if I wanted to. But none of those truly makes me want to give what I got. I envy people who has clear interests and passions. I'd like to have a thing what my life is about, a thing I'm passionate about and what everything else would build on. Like music, poetry, stuff like that. All these people building their carreers and living their passions. And I'm stuck here. The only thing that comes close would be some kind of communal living. I'd like to simply hang out somewhere in beautiful nature and have fun with people. Like a monastery for beauty and fun times. But that seems too far away, I don't know where to even begin. As of right now, the only thing I really enjoy doing, is watching movies, listening to music and walking around the city. But that won't pay the bills. I'm probably running from something to these thoughts. What am I running from?

I'd like to let go the wheel. I'd like to go with the flow. I'd like to literally just do what I want, nothing more and nothing less. I resonate a lot with Ryokan Taigu: " The number of days since I left the world and Entrusted myself to Heaven is long forgotten. Yesterday, sitting peacefully in the green mountains; This morning, playing with the village children. My robe is full of patches and I cannot remember how long I have had the same bowl for begging. On clear nights I walk with my staff and chant poems; During the day I spread out a straw mat and nap. Who says many cannot lead such a life? Just follow my example. " His way of life was very interesting. What I see through his poems is something so simple and beautiful the mind can't grasp it. I wish I had the balls and the guts to follow the example.

I quit weed over a year ago

Ego. "This forum will derail if this is talked about" etc. Which is probably true. Leo wants to create a "high quality" forum. What makes a deciliter of water is the cup, the boundary. Of course they can, a vaccination is not miracle medicine. The virus enters the system with or without the vaccine. The vaccine just "prepares" the body to deal with it. You will get infected, but when you have the vaccine, your body already has the information on how to fight the virus. Sure, there are risks in vaccination. But keep in mind that about 50% of the human population has taken it, so if it was seriously dangerous, we would know.

I don't like the idea of spiritual seeking. Or actually it's okay, but I don't like the thought of seeking truth. I don't like the word 'truth' at all. It makes me anxious. Probably it's due to some kind of misunderstanding. Like you should give it all up for truth. Like it's some kind of a losing game. Like you should choose truth above all else. This just makes me want to run away, fast. I feel adrenaline in my legs, they say NO I have no idea how some people are supposedly able to do that. The Jed McKennas and Thoreaus of the world. Yikes. Ryōkan I get. That's what I want: " Too lazy to be ambitious, I let the world take care of itself. Ten days' worth of rice in my bag; a bundle of twigs by the fireplace. Why chatter about delusion and enlightenment? Listening to the night rain on my roof, I sit comfortably, with both legs stretched out. " Truth, blah. I just want home. They're probably the same thing. But if they're not, fuck truth for not being home.

Yup. And movies. It makes you actually laugh at comedy.

I don't understand what you are saying.

Have you ever tried cannabis? I agree, you can get seriously addicted to it. And it has negative side-effects when you take too much or too often. I used to be a daily user. It's not for mystical experiences and breakthroughs, it doesn't give insights like that. But if you are interested in a slight upgrade in creativity and general insights, cannabis can help. My intuition tells me you could find something valuable there. For some people, it's relaxing, more like alcohol. But for some, especially if you are already creative and smart (you think a lot), it gives a boost there. If you want to try it, take it while you are doing something, such as writing, reading or something like that. Think of it as more of a nootropic. It opens and focuses your mind, just not as much as psychedelics.
