  1. I don't know what actually will happen when I die, just like I don't know what will happen tomorrow. But, this theory I have makes sense even without knowing what will happen. I don't think you can know what will happen and that is part of the design of death. I think that because reality is a solipsistic mind and there is in reality no external reality, or other people. All that exists is a conscious bubble of experience. This bubble of experience in truth can appear as anything it wants to. So, death is actually forgetting. That is all. Death is just shaking the etch sketch. I think at the point of death, literally anything can happen at all because it's a merging with infinity. So, with death literally anything could happen. Death is beyond human understanding because of how constrained our state of consciousness is. But, death allows for any new dream God would want to create from it's infinite intelligence. Memory and remembering I think is a really interesting metaphysical component in reality. I think metaphysical memory is really interesting concept beyond human memory. I think God can just clean the slate whenever it wants and start a new dream at any time it chooses. I think this is already chosen for all of us by ourselves and our infinite mind. I think metaphysical memory creates the illusion of time as well. Time can't really exist because all that exists is an infinite Now frame that changes shape. The changing of the shape can pretend like time has passed by impressing that upon itself. Which, is paradoxical. So, death isn't anything bad. I don't think it need lead to heaven, or another human or animal life. I think it literally is the door to infinite possibilities. I suspect there are forms of experience God can dream that you can be that aren't even considered "Life" because they are so foreign to how we are currently experiencing reality as humans. I think death can open up the potential to any of these other "realms" as well. I don't know how God chooses based on having no constraints other than what it decides. But, there is likely some kind of divine logic that can only be understood by infinite mind itself, and by actually dying. I suspect all human religious ideas around death (at least as commonly interpreted) are wrong. It's far more grand and full of potential than the human mind can readily grasp.
  2. This is an interesting documentary because it was filmed with those who committed the genocide re-enacting how they did it.
  3. @Hojo There has been reports of this for years
  4. @LastThursday That’s my new language not even I understand I am so non-conformist.
  5. @Ishanga Do you think if you were kept awake for 48 hours chained into a stress position in a CIA torture camp with no sense of time that you wouldn’t suffer unless you chose to?
  6. I’d focus on cultivating non-dependent relationships. It sounds like a mess waiting to happen and something that could be very dangerous and toxic down the road to be honest. Her neediness, her already having a family etc. It’s odd and high risk. You guys clearly have chemistry. I dont know how for you to navigate this but… you are seeing signs that something is up.
  7. I heard it was anal rape too… Billionaire, soccer player, rapist… man of many things.
  8. Yes, sure. But, notice how you are alive. You haven’t died, and even with some consciousness of it… you are here alive. Death, would mean you aren’t here alive. So that is what is explored here.
  9. @Someone here I’ve never once had fun looking at soccer but I get people do.
  10. Anyone read this short story? It’s 16 pages long and easy to find on Google for free. Very interesting short story.
  11. Imagine making billions running around and kicking a ball.
  12. I don’t think that is truth though. You’re biased against suffering. God is not.
  13. I’m not convinced spiral dynamics really works here anymore. What is happening is far more nuanced than what spiral dynamics can predict. Spiral dynamics isn’t that good I think when it comes to lying, corruption, and lack of understanding of political science among all stages. I think people are so splintered and the administration is doing things so fast that it’s too late. I can’t see trump and his team failing, unless they mess things up so badly the conflict within the country becomes untenable. Extreme levels of conflict are coming for the United States within the country due to the vision, values and survival strategy of Trump and his party vs the constitution, rule of law, moral standards, policy of the United States up to this point. This is going to be the biggest change the United States has ever gone through since its creation. Not just domestically within the US, but I think globally things are about to change radically.
  14. @Hardkill I think the US is under a deep threat beyond what it can imagine of becoming a country like Russia or North Korea in that it is ruled by a dictator. I think it could happen faster than you think with the new administration. What is happening is unprecedented and happening at breakneck speed. Corruption is happening so fast, and it’s so well coordinated I don’t think democracy has a chance. I hope it does, but I doubt it.
  15. @OBEler Even that, isn’t always true. Diet plays a big roll in this. If you eat black beans for example prior to eating sugar you can essentially illuminate blood sugar spikes. Even if the beans have been completely digested and in large intestine. I think, quantity and how often and how you eat sugar in relationship to your whole diet matters.
  16. Without a basic understanding of Holistic Systems thinking I don’t think nutrition can be understood or properly contemplated.
  17. Pretty sure Mantak Chia teaches like 7 to 14 days. I do think that there is merit to semen retention… at least, and especially because most people don’t have the big and little draw technique. There is a way to orgasm which I’ve had some experience where to can orgasm and it’s more full body leaving you feel nourhsied and clean. I know from experience orgasm can, not always though, leave me feeling a bit flat or drained. I suspect the ancient Toaist view of using sexual energy plays a role in Qigong and Yoga practice. But, never orgasming or limiting it to huge lengths I suspect is not useful.
  18. @Leo Gura That is a fair nuance to share and I think it’s likely true. My sister is a dietician and I think she agrees with you based on how she talks to me about things. …. in Chinese medicine Sugar is extreme Yin. Too much is bad. Too Yin.
  19. @Leo Gura I am open to this idea. However, it being the pure energy of life isn’t a strong argument with looking at how the human body deals with how it metabolizes sugars. Too much could be a bad thing, which I think is the general consensus of nutrition science. If it was as simple as fuel for life we wouldn’t be dealing with people with diabetes for example. Diabetes is an issue with how the body regulates sugars and can be deadly if mishandled. Sugar definitely affects the homeostasis of the body… as I’ve learned in my layman understanding of this subject. So, to say it’s not bad is likely untrue simply because it’s pure energy. Sugar entering the system causes a lot of metabolic reactions which are not good for health, apparently. It also depends on the nature the sugar is consumed. The human body isn’t like a car that you just put glucose in. So, I’m open to learning more about why you think sugar isn’t bad… and I’m curious to understand the various scientific perspectives on why it’s currently considered bad by most mainstream nutrition understanding.
  20. You know, In a way Break Up and Break Down are actually contextual opposites. When I break up a pizza I am cutting it into slices. And when I break down a pizza I am digesting it into its fundamentals. Interesting.
  21. @jimwell Why say “foundationed” when in English you might say “founded in”. “Foundationed” is also, in a way implying a past tense in my opinion. So you aren’t really getting away from anything. A country is founded on principles. A mission can be founded on or in values. When you started the mission you did so because of values. That is kind of past tense isn’t it? How is that wrong to say? Rooted, to an English speaker does not imply something botanical inherently. Rests on does not imply lightness. Those are particular interpretations you have yourself. The word Remove, actually has remained essentially the same in its Latin and French move and is consistent. All of those negating words you listed also have meaning and context that is important to English. I don’t get why you would want to limit them. You simply don’t want to actually speak full and real, fluent and flexible English? You may do whatever you want, and I think it’s interesting you are doing this. I’m not saying not to do it. But, as a native speaker I don’t see issues with the things you do.
  22. @jimwell hmm, Well, as a native English speaker I could use Break Up and Break down in similar ways when taking about breaking something into smaller pieces. But they would be different contextually. I break up a pizza by cutting it and sharing it with others. I break down a pizza by digesting it. A break up between two people is a very different phrase than a break down between two people. As an English speaker I see no problem with these phrases because I understand them. It’s not actually inherently or absolutely logical that break down or break up would be opposites of each other. Both have the root word being break, and like you said it’s a phrase not a directional use of the word up or down. Up and down are clear opposites but they are not phrases. I don’t see an issue with these words because we know what they mean. They have many different contexts they can be used in and everyone native in English basically knows how it use it, though largely implicitly. Don’t you think it’s a bit odd to come to a new language and assume you have a better grasp than native speakers? Conformity isn’t bad in an of itself. I think what Leo is teaching is consciousness which, if you are to live consciously you need to deconstruct how you have aspects of conformist cognition. Languages are inherently conformity because that’s what separates one language from another. A language is a construct and a conformity of symbols, sounds, meaning, context, syntax, etc. It comes odd ti me you want to create your own… dialect of English and are annoyed with the constraints that would put on you. Isn’t it arbitrary what you are doing? Isn’t it also question begging you as a none native have a better grasp than natives?
  23. I do not experience this. After a salad or soup with veggies I feel great. Clearly, people eat lots of veggies without this happening. People are not stupid. You know, a lot of this is personal and difficult because people are somewhat individual. Also, the food you eat I think can have seasonal considerations too. Bryan Johnson, an individual and also the most measured person in the world only eats fruits and veggies plus supplements and doesn’t report these issues as an example.
