    I think the same, the guy is too smart to believe that nonsense, therefore he deliberately lies. reason? increase subscribers. Then i can't help but think about what else he lies. What more dishonest things does he do? Is there some truth or just lies? That the problem when you spread some lies, that you lose your credibility

    That's a strong accusation. Why do you say that?

    I think Sadhguru stands by what he says in the video.

    How can you guys validate if it's true or not when no one here has any awareness of what impact moon and sun cycles have on human energy system. Nor any of you have the awareness of the pranic body to begin with even. So where is all that expertise and confidence coming from? If not from the ass. 

    You do have a point. But there are times when decisions must be made. Supposing you're one of the forum members who strongly believe in incarnation and earnestly desire to escape planet Earth for eternity. After watching the video which initiated this thread, what would you do? Would you strive to live until 84?

    Sadhguru has a big responsibility as a spiritual influencer. He needs to ensure his words align with truth. Unfortunately, it seems he's complacent about this responsibility.

    One way to not let that happen is to not claim ownership of a condition that has affected it and it will slowly dissolve into the sea from which it came. What we focus on magnifies because of the light that is being shun unto it because your true nature is Awareness.

    That's not accurate.

    That's as far as I'll go with this as I'm not even sure you'll resonate with what i'm saying, since you seem to very materialistic in your thinking and don't understand the mental vibe of your essence. 

    xD You're full of assumptions. You just can't believe anything you read on this forum or hear from spiritual teachers. Think for yourself and verify it via experience.

    But I appreciate the effort you put into your long reply. I read every word of it.

    It's okay to strive for things for yourself as part of your growth process to climb Maslow's Hierarchy of needs, as long as you don't equate that with thinking everyone else should have to or forced to be like you, like vegans tend to do when they turn their diet into a religion.

    I see your point, but veganism also has its merits. You just can't dismiss it.

    My father is guilty of this with his obsession over diet and order in general. He finds some new truth he then latches onto and thinks is right and then wants to spread it around to everyone else. I mean, I get it, but after a point  you have to let people find their own truth. Plus, how does he even know his truth is the right one? I'm constantly self checking my own BS but that's a hard skill to learn.

    Yes, it's important to see truth and act accordingly. Any progress which doesn't align with truth, goodness, or sanity is negative progress.

    Nevermind there's no reason whatsoever to wash your hands when touching something someone else touched. I would call this obsessive compulsive disorder. ;)

    You can label it as OCD. But there's a rationale behind my behavior. When I touch a public doorknob, I envision contamination with human shit. I don't want to get contaminated with human shit. I want to stay clean. You have no idea how dirty a human hand (and human soul) is.

    Human shit = germs, oil, dirty particles, urine, feces, pretentiousness, deception, greed, closed-mindedness, malice, ignorance, twistedness, etc.

    You should unlearn these habits by being a slob on purpose and find a balance for yourself. Healthy personal development  "it's okay if it happens, it's okay if it doesn't."

    That would be as dirty as a typical human, which is unacceptable to me. But I can try to be more embracing of literal and metaphorical dirt. Much easier than done. :( But must be done.

    Perfectionism is basically the need for control and for things to go a specific way. However, this assumes that you were ever in control of how things unfold to begin with. Notice how much more openness there is when you relinquish control or even a controller controlling control.

    I see your point, but it's also swinging the pendulum to the other side. I do have some control, and I want to exercise it.

    If someone tries to show me something I'm not aware of, and what might eliminate my self-inflicted pain and suffering, I will investigate it, contemplate it and use my own discernment before just blatantly dismissing them and calling what they have to say mumbo jumbo just because I'm not familiar with it.

    I'm aware of no-self and neo-Advaita spiritual insights, which is why I warned you because they can do more harm than good.

    If you were experiencing a nasty toothache, no amount of "no self", "no experiencer", or similar concepts would relieve the pain. What you must do is go to the dentist's office to have it extracted or root-canaled.

    i brainstormed together with chat-gpt some possible antidotes to perfectionism and came up with ...

    • Confidence
    • Flexibility
    • Tolerance
    • Realism
    • Ease
    • Laissez-faire (which i re-interpret as whatever happens is not just from me but for me)
    • Peace

    ... some ideas worthy of a contemplation

    Realism, and "laissez-faire" as you interpret it, can help.

    I'm trying to show you how claiming things as yours will inflict pain and suffering. Perfectionism now found itself a home and because it's not welcome it suffers. You have to start to dissociate one from the other. Perfectionism is a label you have put unto some form of behavior and now you're claiming perfectionism to be yours. My arthritis, my depression, my weight, my anxiety, my this, my that. Ownership. The ego doesn't like to lose anything. You are creating your own suffering by claiming these things to be yours. 

    xD What? xD

    Step out of the spiritual mumbo jumbo zone, girl.

    @jimwell

       But isn't that more OCD and not perfectionism? Also, because of perfectionism is why past geniuses and legends who worked hard and pioneered developing fields for humanity the reason why mastery is a thing?

    OCD is perfectionism. It's true that perfectionism often results in great things, but at a very high cost. Perfectionism inherently causes anxiety, guilt, depression, frustration, exhaustion, and more. Such forms of suffering can't be avoided because you can never be perfect, exactly because you're limited. Even when you feel you have accomplished perfection, it's often after going the extra thousand miles. Exhaustion is also woven into the fabric of perfectionism, making it unsustainable.

       To be more clear with the question, why is perfectionism wrong and cruel, but not the OCD itself? Is perfectionism and 'perfection' itself evil? 

    Demanding perfectionism at a high level from somebody is, in a way, evil because it doesn't acknowledge the limits of being human and needlessly inflicts tremendous suffering. Perfectionism can even be used as a form of punishment.

    Here's a true but tragic story which happened a few years ago.

    There was a Japanese father who commanded his 4-year-old daughter to wake up at exactly 4 am every day to check her weight on a scale. The little girl had to record her weight in a notebook and maintain the same weight the entire year. If she made an error in the routine; such as waking up at 4:05 am (5 minutes late), forgetting to record her weight, or gaining even 1 pound; her father would hit her with a belt a few times. As a result, the little girl had bruises and scars on her body because she couldn't fulfill her father's demand 100 percent of the time.

    I remember reading a girl's letter after being told by her father that she's a horrible girl for being imperfect. The letter goes something similar to this:

    Quote

    Forgive me, father, for being a bad daughter. I promise to wake up at 4 am tomorrow and record my weight. I'm sorry.

    While reading the short letter, I imagined the little girl crying bearing bruises all over her body. I was overwhelmed with compassion for the little girl, and a murderous desire for her father; I found myself in tears. The little girl was innocent and didn't do anything wrong. But she blamed herself, instead of her bastardish father. Kids tend to blame themselves and internalize guilt because they instinctively idolize their parents and perceive them as perfect. This is based on my experience. When I was a kid, I blamed myself for enduring mental-emotional and physical abuse inflicted by my father.

    It was winter in Japan and was freezing cold. Instead of hitting the little girl, the father left her on the balcony as a form of punishment whenever she made an error. One day, when he called her inside to get ready for school or daycare, the little girl didn't respond because she had frozen to death.

    That was tragic as fuck, correct? That was popular news in Japan a few years ago. The father faced charges related to childhood abuse. How could it be abuse when the father simply showed love by demanding perfectionism from his daughter? Isn't perfectionism good and loving?

    Demanding perfectionism can be deceptive and an expression of hate. It can also serve as a form of punishment. The expectations set are often exceedingly difficult to accomplish, particularly for a 4-year-old girl. Though the tragic story represents an extreme example, it clearly illustrates the cruelty and deceptive nature of perfectionism.

    IMO, to me it just seems like the user @jimwell is either conflating the weaknesses of OCD with perfectionism, and maybe making both falsely equal, because Imma be honest, in my top ten values and my mission statement for my LP, excellence is in my top ten, which can tend to make me seek 'perfectionism' because I don't mind spending more time, energy and attention into drawing or  rapping or gaming, and getting that ideal result in the process.

    It simply means you're NOT a perfectionist, which is why you strive for perfectionism. Perfectionists are the minority; they're rare. 

    You must go for excellence, of course. You can even use the term "perfectionism" interchangeably with "excellence". This approach will help you produce higher-quality work.

    But if you do become a perfectionist, I guarantee you will experience the suffering I discussed in this thread. And you won't be happy about it.

    The title is a little bit harsh, don't ya think. Murder is wrong and cruel. If you just say you're a perfectionist without labelling it wrong and cruel, you wouldn't have such a hard time with it. Please, observe without judgement and life becomes a bit more manageable. 

    No, girl. My perfectionism has been inflicting suffering on me for many years despite not labeling it as wrong and cruel.  

    After deep contemplation and self-honesty, I became aware that demanding perfectionism is deceptive because it can be disguised as goodness and love, when, in reality, it's cruel and disconnected from reality.

    That's mild perfectionism, which is a good thing. Even mild OCD is a very good thing. I wish humans had mild OCD to make them aware of how dirty (literally and metaphorically) they are. It would also motivate them to make themselves cleaner.

    I'm not making a moral case against you, but rather a business case. Doing business that is not grounded in providing massive value to people is just bad business and leads to more failure than not.

    Yes, that's generally true, and it's suitable if you're in your 20s. But there are situations when you can't wait 10 years to generate the profit you need to escape wage slavery. Unfortunately, my situation is one of those.

    All the money you made trading you could lose tomorrow. So be careful.

    The problem with corruption is that it often leads to failure.

    I could lose all or almost all my money via day trading. But I could also gain massive profits in a very short time. I need and want to escape wage slavery as soon as possible.

    Just look at this risk-taking Japanese guy in the video.

    Yes, but starting a business is also very risky. It's also gambling in a way that success is not guaranteed. In fact, there's a big chance your business fails, resulting in the loss of your initial investment. Most businesses close within the first few years of operation.

    Just be honest with yourself. The only reason you are doing this crypto stuff is because you don't actually wanna do the real work of building a legit business. So here you are, looking to weasel your way into some money you neither earned nor deserve. This is not the behavior of a serious person, this is the behavior of a corrupt degenerate.

    I started an English school in Japan where I designed the curriculum, wrote English books, and taught the language. Meanwhile, my Japanese business partner handled the business side, creating a setup reminiscent of Steve Jobs and Wozniak. Despite a few years of successful operation, circumstances forced the school to close.

    I also started an online business which sells software. I coded the software, designed the marketing strategy, and handled customer support. The setup was similar to your actualized.org. Unfortunately, the online business was forced to close after one year of operation.

    I invested massive energy and time into working on the two businesses, only to see them fail.

    I day trade stocks and CFDs. Yes, I admit there's a certain level of corruption in my approach, but I embrace it because, it's the only way for me to materialize my visions and ambitions. Escaping wage slavery is very difficult. From my experience and that of others, starting a business often ends in failure. Working as a wage slave my entire life is not an option for me, and I suspect it's also not an option for you.

    You have achieved success with actualized.org, congratulations to you. But you were lucky to live in the USA, a country with opportunities and resources which helped you in your success. What if you lived in a 3rd world country? What if your parents never migrated to the USA? There would have been no actualized.org. Growing up in a country such as Russia, with fewer opportunities and resources, could have posed significant challenges for the success of actualized.org. I can imagine you speaking broken English. xD But suppose you're one of the few exceptions who speak fluent English, your Russian accent and cultural barriers will make it very difficult or impossible for actualized.org to thrive.

    I live in a 3rd world country which is not a good environment for "light workers". Here, the primary options are wage slavery, freelancing, and starting a business. Freelancing sucks because even if clients are from the USA or a 1st world country, they pay much lesser than American counterparts. A freelancer from a 3rd world country receives a 3rd world country salary, which is 10x to 20x lower than that of somebody in a first-world country.

    I lack access to opportunities and resources I need to materialize my visions and ambitions. But at least, I have access to global stock exchanges. I find myself metaphorically getting my hands dirty for the sake of my visions and ambitions. Paradoxically, enduring the metaphorical dirt can amplify my contribution and impact on the world a bit. Being human sucks! But that's how it is.

    Disagree, learning technical analysis is real work. It might start as a dream of easy money, but as you said, that ends up with easy losses.  Actual good analysis requires time effort and experience to master and use without hindsight. 

    What Leo wants to say is that you and I are corrupt because even if we earn money from day trading, we never provide value to society. A business, though also inherently risky, at least provides value to society. Businessowner deserve the profit they earn, day traders don't. 

    But hey, at least day traders don't exploit wage slaves the way business owners and CEOs do. 


  9. I have been struggling with perfectionism for many years. Despite the great, mind-boggling accomplishments I've gained from self-development or internal work, one of the very few things I've never accomplished is overcoming perfectionism. For example, I wash my hands every time I touch an object which belongs to others. If I'm in a situation where I'm forced to keep that object, such as receiving a physical gift from somebody, I ensure I clean the object first before keeping it. When I arrive home from work or leisure, I ensure to take a shower before going to bed and clean all the things I brought, such as my bag, smartphone, and wallet. I do this 100% of the time, regardless of how sleepy or tired I am. If I don't do it, I feel dirty and anxious. I love cleanliness too much; it has resulted in OCD.

    I also apply the same principle to other domains in life. I push myself too hard to ensure I accomplish or demonstrate 100% understanding, bravery, morality, masculinity, etc. If it's 98%, I feel guilty, anxious, or depressed. It must be 100% for me to feel fulfilled and peaceful.

    This love for perfectionism has been giving me extreme, needless suffering. I've been enduring the unendurable for too many years; I'm exhausted as fuck.

    A few hours ago, I contemplated all this very deeply and seriously. I generated an insight which is very obvious to me now, but couldn't see in the past. I asked ChatGPT to explain the insight on perfectionism I generated because I've always been amazed by ChatGPT's intelligence.

    insight1.png    

    insight2.png

    I shared this insight to remind myself of the change I need to make. I could have kept this to myself and still initiated the needed change. So, the other reason for sharing this insight is to help others struggling with perfectionism. I'm probably not solitary in this struggle.

    It can also be a dog which looks similar to a wolf. Regardless, it surely looks beautiful. And that's one of the reasons why I chose this video. I almost forgot to mention I find the Japanese translations interesting. :D


  12. The first time I heard this song was when I was a young boy. I couldn't speak or even understand English at the time because I'm from a 3rd world country in Asia. English is not my native language. But I used to love this song because of its passionate and beautiful melody.

    I watched a YouTube video about the struggles of a class-A actor in my home country two hours ago. He was at his peak as an actor in the late 1980s but lost popularity in his 30s. He went through a divorce, lost custody of his children, became a drug and alcohol addict, faced suicidal thoughts, financial struggles, and suffered a stroke in his 40s which nearly ended his painful existence, leading to a near-death experience (NDE). As the video neared its end, he revealed he hadn't talked to his kids for a few years. He mentioned checking their social media pages regularly to monitor them from a distance. That was how I remembered the song entitled "From a Distance". I hadn't listened to it for decades, but it suddenly popped into my head. Such is the power of the human brain.

    Now, listening to the song as an adult with English proficiency, I'm surprised how spiritual the song is.

    But first, here's a little background on the song: It became an international commercial success after Bette Midler recorded it in 1990 for the album "Some People's Lives". "From a Distance" reached number one on the Adult Contemporary chart and peaked at number two on the Billboard Hot 100. The song went on to win a Grammy for Song of the Year in 1991 and also received a '3 Million Airs Award' from Broadcast Music Incorporated. The song's writer is Julie Gold, who believes in an immanent God, meaning that God encompasses and manifests in the material universe.

    The song can be interpreted in various ways. In my interpretation, every instance of knee joint pain, toothache, Hashimoto's disease, rape, panic attack, anxiety, depression, self-murder via hanging or gunshot wound to the head, murder via stabbing or carpet bombing, war, political corruption, cancer, leprosy, incel, starvation, bankruptcy, exploitation, scam, and more is harmony if viewed from a distance. And this view from a distance is GOD's perspective. God is watching every torture and horror in the world from a distance, hence GOD sees perfection in it. Of course, it's harmony and perfection because God's perspective is unlimited and holistic.

    How can an entity with an unlimited perspective and intelligence commit an error in its grand design? That's not possible. If there's a faulty perspective, it's the limited perspective, which is my perspective and yours. 

    So, should I neglect my perspective while living as a human because it's limited and faulty in some ways? Should I be indifferent to every evil, torture, and horror in the world just because, in God's eyes, it's perfection and harmony? Some naive or pretentious spiritual humans would say "Yes".

    My answer is a resounding "NO"! It's true my limited perspective is inferior to God's. But my perspective is all I have. Honoring my perspective, though limited and erroneous in the grandest scheme of things, is actually more genuine than pretending to see perfection and harmony in all the horrors and tragedies in the world. And honoring my perspective is an act of self-acceptance and self-love.

    Should I focus my attention on finishing my studies? But I didn't know how to do that. I got a dream about it this night. And it felt alright. I'm worried about myself being old. 

    I remember you said you're 27 and I saw a photograph of you wearing a hijab. You must be a Muslim, but an Asian Muslim. Are you from Indonesia?

    Regardless; you should spend most of your time working on improving yourself and life, not on KPOP and not on this forum.

    27 is still a young age for university. Go to your previous university and locate the specific department of your major. Inquire about the requirements for continuing your major. You can also change major if you want. Alternatively, you can find the requirements on the university's website.

    Another way to improve your life is to take on an ordinary job, such as being a waitress or salesgirl at a shopping mall. This experience can be beneficial, providing you with a Tax ID number that will be useful for paying taxes and opening a bank account. You also need to obtain a passport. You can easily find information on how to get a passport in your country by searching on the internet.

    Regardless of what you want to do, it's important to learn basic survival skills such as buy groceries and cooking. Volunteer to buy groceries or at least accompany your mother when she buys groceries. Observe how she does it and imitate her. Search how to cook on the internet; YouTube videos are very useful. You can also use ChatGPT to help you learn how to cook.

    Then consider living away from your family, whether in a university dormitory or a regular apartment room. This experience will help you feel more independent and feel you're an adult. I recommend using an electric stove instead of gas-powered stove.

    If you don't know how to do something or you simply need more information about it, ask ChatGPT. Yes, it's very useful and helpful. It is God's gift to you, so you use it and don't waste that precious gift. Leo talked about it, including how to open an account.

    I have done the talking for you. Now you must do the walk.

    xD

    Who told you this?

    Did you experience becoming wiser or "enlightened" during those ages?

    But to be fair, I experienced a great internal change when I was 31. And it felt very good. But I did extraordinary internal work almost my entire 20s to accomplish it. It didn't happen automatically.   

    I also experienced a significant change when I turned 11. But it was nothing compared to the change I experienced when I turned 31. Puberty was probably the biggest reason for the change at age 11. 


  16. I just remembered my grandfather had been polite and considerate his entire life until he turned 81 or 82. I was very surprised when he suddenly became impolite and rude, screaming at his girlfriend, my mother, and perhaps other relatives regularly. He died when he was approximately 84. 

    What a crazy coincidence! Sadhguru's spiritual insight might be more than entertainment.


  17. In this video, Sadhguru discusses the connection between the cycles of the moon and the fundamentals of human birth. He explains that the energy system of a person can mature by witnessing one-thousand-and-eight full moons, which occurs approximately in eighty-four years. According to Sadhguru, this maturity allows one to go beyond the cycles of birth and death.

    This spiritual insight suggests that even if you live an ignorant and a low-consciousness life, you'll NOT be born again on planet Earth if you live for at least 84 years. When a person reaches the age of 83, 84, or 85, their character changes significantly even without any self-help or spirituality. For example, if you have been a bastard your entire life, you'll become compassionate and generous when you turn 84. This transformation happens automatically; no self-help, no therapy, no internal work, and no spirituality needed. 

    I've observed members or users in this forum who are experiencing significant suffering and wish to avoid being reborn after death. Here's some good news for you: simply live until 84, and you'll automatically accomplish it.

    I wonder where or how Sadhguru generated this spiritual insight. I don't think it's true. But it's at least interesting. Sadhguru is a good storyteller. I was entertained.

    Gazan kids are experiencing extreme horror and trauma which will result in clinical anxiety and depression, and murderous desires towards oneself and others when these kids become adults. The evil being inflicted by Israel now will have lingering effects for more than a century, becoming very significant and evident in the next 40 years.

    Devils have always made Earth more similar to hell than heaven.

    A set of humans realised that nobody is powerful enough to get them out of suffering. So they created god and satisfied themselves with faith. Another set of humans were never able to find out why or how they came into existence, so they also created god and satisfied themselves with stories.

    True.

    But here's a deeper truth: Humans are naturally inclined to search for God because divinity is woven into the fabric of human existence. Every organ, blood vessel, molecule, and cell is made of divine substance.

    Before a human is born, he embodies unlimited divinity. Upon birth, he transitions to limited divinity. However, a part of him retains and remembers this unlimited divinity; it's merely a matter of intensity. So, humans have the desire to regain what was lost. To say it another way, humans have the natural desire to reconnect to the state before they were born, which is the same thing as death. Death is unlimited divinity. Death is God; hence, humans have been searching for God for millennia. Humans fear death, but they also secretly desire it. It's a twisted paradox!

    How did I know it? While defecating, I asked myself why I somehow "remember" the state before I was born. I was confused why I have an idea what pre-birth was. If I did not exist before I was born, why did I know how it was? I must have existed before I was born. But how could I exist before I was born? I was confused as fuck. I endured the confusion and contemplated for several minutes, or perhaps an hour. Then, I had an 'AHA!' moment, which I shared in the previous paragraph.

    I became curious about chatGPT's interpretation of the spiritual insight I shared. It's also a good way to test its capability in terms of flexibility and accuracy. So, here it is:

    And what you can do is to truly love, no matter what, despite everything, not a person, but to love Love itself! It enriches you; it transcends you; it picks you up from the devouring abyss of despair. It rescues you when no one is around. It gives you strength when your lover betrays you. It wakes you up from the worst and darkest nightmare of your life. Nothing really matters with time. This is how Love gets back home and takes its place, which it left long time ago. 

    Love is a very beautiful thing. And the highest form of love is UNCONDITIONAL SELF-LOVE.

    Embodiment of it is the key because embodiment is experience and the highest understanding.

    "In the Name of God: A Holy Betrayal" is a true crime documentary series released on Netflix in March 2023. It consists of 8 episodes. In this post, I will focus on the first 3 episodes, which feature Jeong Myeong-Seok (정명석), a self-proclaimed Messiah from South Korea.

    I very rarely experience envy, but this cult leader ignited that emotion in me, which is difficult for me to acknowledge. He has fucked more than 10,000 Korean girls, which he calls God's brides. This accomplishment is too great and impressive, it rivals or exceeds the accomplishments of the ancient Chinese emperors. There were times he penetrated 50 girls per day. Reflect on that for a moment.

    One bride captured my attention. Her feminine beauty is very high, she can be one of my top-rated concubines.

    Her name is Maple. She had been a member of the JMS cult for 10 years when she escaped and then filed a rape lawsuit against her former Messiah, Jeong Myeong-Seok. When she joined the cult in 2012, the fake Messiah was in jail for sexual assault. Despite the charges, Maple used to visit him in prison, offering love and support. She believed Jeong Myeong-Seok was unfairly persecuted by the world. She perceived Jeong Myeong-Seok on the same level as Jesus, a Messiah, the truth and savior of humans, hence persecution is normal and expected.

    Such is the level of self-deception humans are capable of.

    Maple held a prominent position as a star bride, favored by the 78-year-old Jeong Myeong-Seok. She actively participated in recruiting and brainwashing other star brides, even including foreigners, with the promise of the privilege of a sexual union with the self-proclaimed Messiah. One of the Australian star brides had more intelligence or had a healthier boundary than everybody in the cult. Recognizing signs of sexual assault, she left the church immediately. In an effort to save other star brides, she sent a text message to Maple, persuading Maple to leave the JMS church immediately and subtly suggesting doubts about the genuiness of the Messiah. That simple text message somehow enabled Maple to lift the veil from her eyes.

    Maple went back to her hometown in Hongkong to escape JMS church. A few months later, she came back to South Korea to face the public in a press conference. There she claimed she was a victim of rape by Jeong Myeong-Seok. It must have been very painful for her to realize that she had been deceived for 10 years by a fake Messiah. She must have contemplated the time, energy, and sexual services she provided to her former God. She must have felt deep regret and pain as a result of the deception and betrayal.

    I hate to say it but I must say it. What happened to Maple is very unfortunate and tragic, but she was NOT raped. Jeong Myeong-Seok fucked her 15 times. The day before the fake Messiah fucked her for the 15th time, she had planned to escape. But Jeong Myeong-Seok entered her room, locked the door, and then penetrated her. Maple having a fever at the time, recorded her sexual union with "God" via voice recorder. But even in the recording, there were no signs of resistance. She was submissive, as she had been in the past 10 years. Maple explained she didn't act as if there was anything wrong because she was scared something bad might happen to her if she showed any sign of resistance. She herself admitted that she didn't show any sign of resistance.

    Rape is a specific form of sexual assault which involves non-consensual penetration. Every sex she had with Jeong Myeong-Seok was consensual. Of course it was because Maple never showed any sign of resistance; not a "NO", or not a cry of pain or struggle. Jeong Myeong-Seok didn't use any force or threat because there was no need to. There was simply no resistance from Maple.

    I've heard about somebody in position of power and authority who has sex with another in a lesser position being legally wrong. I understand why such perception exists. But I don't agree with it. You're saying a celebrity can't have a sexual relationship with his female fan? A teacher can't have a sexual relationship with his female student? That's wrong. The fan or student genuinely loves or admires the celebrity or teacher for his appearance, acting capability, intelligence, charisma, fame, or status. And that's a valid reason to enter into a sexual relationship. Why would a celebrity or teacher be restricted or punished for simply existing as he is, with all his admirable characteristics and perks? The female fan or student is responsible for herself, and she's free to decide whether to be in a sexual relationship. As long as she's not forced in any way or form, that's ok.

    If you insist it's not ok, do you consider gold diggers as victims of sexual crimes? The rich, fat businessman is in a position of power because he has all the money in the world. Money is a very powerful thing and is desired by everybody. Gold diggers can't help themselves but to be attracted to somebody who has it. There is much power imbalance there.

    In Japan, there will be no serious sexual relationship without the questions "What's your job? How much is your salary?". Japanese girls' top priority is a man who can financially sustain them. Not true all the time, but it's true most of the time. My observations, gathered in-person and from videos featuring dating and matchmaking businesses or websites in Japan, indicate that money is the number one reason influencing a Japanese girl's decision to date or marry. Anybody who has it is in a position of power and influence over any Japanese girl. It's wrong to legally forbid a rich man from being in a consensual sexual relationship with a girl because of his financial standing and perceived power and authority. 

    Is it wrong to indict Jeong Myeong-Seok of rape? No, it's not because he probably raped other brides. There were reports of him threatening his brides with "If you resist, you'll go to hell", "If you leave me, your future children will be born with defects.", etc. He threatened those brides because they exhibited resistance during and after sex. But Maple, unfortunately did NOT show any form of resistance during and after sex. That's the problem. 

    Maple regretted having sex with Jeong Myeong-Seok when she realized she had been deceived by him.  But it's not enough reason to sue him for rape. She can pursue legal action for fraud or something similar, but not for rape.

    A cult is a spiritual scam; hence a cult leader is a spiritual scammer. Jeong Myeong-Seok spiritually scammed Maple which made Maple offered herself sexually and spiritually to him. Jeong Myeong-Seok should face charges for orchestrating a spiritual scam.

    I remember when I fell victim to a financial scam. I was not forced in any way to invest in the scam. I was simply deceived or gaslighted with promises of big returns of investment. So, I willingly offered or invested my money into the financial scam. I was NOT financially raped. I was simply financially scammed. Similarly, Maple was deceived by Jeong Myeong-Seok, claiming he is a Messiah who is worthy of love and sex. That made Maple offered herself sexually. But she was NOT raped. She was spiritually scammed which unfortunately resulted in consensual sex.  

    I'll end this post by emphasizing the importance of being able to discern truth. The ability to see truth is a very practical and useful capability. If Maple had possessed that capability, she would have recognized a spiritual scammer instead of a Messiah chosen by God. This would have spared her from the pain and drama she's enduring.
