Please help me add to this list of made up human illusions: Illusory Human Inventions: -Time (there is only the now. All thoughts of past and present are concepts that happen in the Now. You were “born” in the Now, your body will decay in this moment.) -The Seperate Self (you being a seperate person “in there” is only an idea, a concept. Yes there is an awareness of these words, but the idea that there is a seperate individual in there reading these words is an imagined add-on) -Death (when you realize that there is no seperate self, and you are always only suspended in the Infinite Now, it becomes clear that your true Self cannot die. How does infinity die? Your body will decay but you are not inside the body, the body is inside you. How do you kill awareness?) -Language: say the word “Apple” now what did you experience? Probably a sound, can you eat that sound? What does that sound have to do with an actual apple? 🍏 “Enlightenment is less about gaining new truth than it is dropping illusions.” -BlessedLion

It’s true you gotta strike a balance. Right now I’m taking a break from the feminine and it feels good

Ken Wilber says we are and that everyone has that tendency of interest in their own sex. How big it is I think varies but if we were all on a deserted island we’d probably start fucking each other.

No point in arguing with people that have been brainwashed since birth. They can’t help themselves I’m staying out of these conversations, it’s pointless. These people will go to their grave defending their genocide.

It’s interesting because some get better with time like Ralston or Wilber. I think I’ll be studying their work and perspectives for decades but some get so cringe like David Goggins and Peterson. I used to love Goggins now I see his message as pretty toxic

I’ve watched some of his stuff and I guess I get it but it’s basic and surface level personal development work. He rarely speaks about life purpose or anything metaphysical (in fact he seems mostly brainwashed by Christianity and religion) and emphasizes just working for the man. His 2 major life principles out of seven are -Make your bed -Walk with your shoulders upright Like really? You can share 7 principles for LIFE and you waste two on this shit? I can see how he helps people get out a rut or something but after a while your spinning wheels. Foundation is important. Very important. But it only goes so far and ultimately foundation should support something higher like life purpose. Maybe people just aren’t ready for that hence his popularity

Don’t do that. Meditation is the best practice you can implement. But you also need to do shadow work, therapy, and journaling to tackle your own psyche. Check out Ken Wilber I really like his approach

Depends entirely on the people. I’d say it’s a huge gamble with a low success rate. I’m quite happy alone and hitting it on occasion I think if I ever did it I wouldn’t get the state involved. No way I’m risking half my shit and hard earned money for anyone. You can really never know what someone might do later down the road. People are unpredictable, especially women. That said I think having a long term partner is good for your health

Damn bro sounds like heaven. I love Latinas

A snake. A disgusting snake. I spit on his face.

Yep. Not saying there is anything wrong with it. And honestly I’d rather be alive. It’s totally natural. But if we wanted to the best thing for the planet and suffering of beings, we’d just end it now

Yes I agree! My top 3 for sure

I can see why you’d say this. He does seemingly ramble a lot but I think it’s with purpose. Anyway, different teachers resonate with different people I guess. Doesn’t say anything objective about them

I can see why you might get that impression but I’d recommend not making those assumptions unless you’ve deeply studied his work. Wilber is the real deal. He speaks in depth of the Unborn and Undying Tao and in a manner that is undeniable that he grasps it

If humans were truly selfless they would just off themselves and allow nature to flourish and thrive
