  1. Yes, that's the mindfuckery of God. You thought you were a finite human. You were so, so sure you were a finite human. You were so, so sure that it never even occurred to question it. That's how convincing the human experience is. But you are not ultimately a finite human, despite the fact that you can have a human experience. Both things are true: you are not ultimately a human, and yet pragmatically you can still pick up the phone and call your mom. That's how powerful a God-dream is. It's indistinguishable from reality. That's also imagination. Pragmatically speaking, the dream-character is not aware of all things. That is nessesarily true to create realness within the dream. But it's only true within the context of the dream itself. You just have to stop thinking you're a human and it makes sense. No finite-thing has awareness. God just exists.
  2. That was me reflecting back to Carl-Richard’s his argument to make sure I understood him. Yes, you could fall into a trap of equating solipsism with the finite self. But that’s not what I am doing.
  3. It does. You're just not yet understanding how radical the ramifications of Oneness are. Not only does perspective have existence, it's the only thing with existence. Anything you want to claim outside of perspective to exist requires perspective. You have never had an experience outside of perspective.
  4. The One is infinity. So that's not a problem. Yes, you could say reality is limited to being One / infinity. I apologize on behalf of the universe.
  5. I deny that I am a finite human self. An Absolute cannot be true only in certain cases, by defintion.
  6. Solipsism is not a limit, it's the removal of all limits.
  7. What happened that it almost killed you?
  8. Only at this level of consciousness does that appear to be the case. Any “part” or individuation of infinity you suppose is actually Infinity as a Whole. That’s what it means to be infinity. It’s fractal in nature. You’re not really a “part” at all. It’s just the Infinite Mind of God, which is your Mind. That’s what is Absolutely True. Which is what solipsism is about.
  9. Good talk. Lots of anti-establishment brain rot out there.
  10. Then you’ve just circled back to your original problem. When you say you’re not in control, you assume yourself as finite. But you’ve never proven that.
  11. You can’t prove that either. Where are the other shows?
  12. No, not solipsism debunked. When you assume your will is not ultimate, you assume a separate, finite self. And yet you cannot prove the existence of such a self.
  13. Anything can work as long as the vibes are good, she trusts you and you solve logistics + lead. That’s the winning formula, no matter how you accomplish it. Flash game is definitely a trap though. Most good game looks like you’re not doing much at all. Think invisible game, not flash game.
  14. One time I had a heart awakening come on while talking to another guy at a mushroom ceremony. It freaked me out because I thought I was turning gay.
  15. Why would you assume that? Of course this could work. The only problem is that it's not scaleable if you're doing a lot of approaches. You will get kicked out of a nightclub for such a thing, or get arrested. So you're better off toning it down.
  16. This is not a contradiction. Yes, God is Absolute Truth and therefore unfalsifiable. And yes, self-deception still matters. Trauma still matters. State of your mind still matters. Surrendering your ego still matters. Good sense-making and contemplation still matters. You have capacity to deny truth all you want. Why? Because God is Absolute, and therefore there is no one else to stop God from self-denial. Just in the same way that there is no one else to verify God. Only you. And when you do, you’ll understand why we talk about solipsism.
  17. How would you know? Unless you’ve had direct experience, you don’t even understand what our words are pointing towards. You are like a virgin debating what sex is like. Except it’s way worse, because God is a 1000x more of a mindfuck than sex.
  18. You don’t know what my claim is, because you deny the essentialness of direct experience.
  19. The communism litmus test needs to include to Game B.
  20. My concern is that Aubrey is underestimating the extent to which Vylana is bulldozing her own boundaries. I just don't see her realistically walking away from a situation like she's in, even if something was significantly off. And to be fair to him, that does say something about how good a partner Aubrey is. The magical stories / rationalizations are really only problematic if they lead to excessive bulldozing. Otherwise I don't mind them.
  21. Aubrey could legitimately have an extremely high sex drive that makes monogamy unworkable. Which is how he describes himself. Almost no one is factoring that into their analysis.
