Not only is God the greatest deceiver, he is the only deceiver. Its rumored that when enlightened people read Abrahamic texts, they can understand what the texts actually mean beyond the metaphors.

Because the Soviet Union fell and China liberalised.

The Soviet Union and Maoist China already beat you to it.

First and foremost I would establish Esperanto as the official 'Earth language'.

In your blog post Poor Leonard Suskind, Leonard asks: 9) “Why do so many human beings believe in GOD?” And you responded with You will find this very difficult to believe but here’s the honest answer: for the exact same reason that most human beings believe in the existence of the Sun. Could you please elaborate on this? Like, simple people who intuitively believe in God, is there a wisdom to it? These people are often mocked by atheist comedians and anti-religious crusaders such as Richard Dawkins as being stupid and backwards hicks. But from what I intuit from your blog post as that these people are seeing something that the scientists don't see due to the brainwashing the scientist had to go through to get his PhD. So could you please elaborate on this comment? Why is average people believing in God as obvious as believing in the Sun. Do these people intuit God from nature's beauty, or something like that?

Of course, SDi taught us this.

So the believers are one up on the scientist in this regard because they're being more open minded whereas the scientist screeches for proof?

Because there's different interpretations of absolute truth with get passed through different cultural filters. Even without organized religion, very highly conscious, spiritualty ''woke'' people are always disagreeing with each other. Which is precisely why the Buddha placed such an emphasis at verifying and arriving at truths on your own.

I wanted to get links that would embed, could not figure out how to do that. If any of the mods would like to edit this post and embed all the images from the links below and re-upload them on this thread, please do so. Also, @Leo Gura, please fix the Drag files here to attach section of this forum. Every time I try to upload an image, I get this error message: Now to the topic. At the Smithsonian museum in Washington D.C., there is an exhibition for Asian art, a lot of which reminded me of Actualized.org. Some of the teachings I read reminded me of Leo's videos. Recently, they opened up a room specifically dedicated to Buddhist shrines.

Such a country already exists it’s called Liberia and Somalia.

This is big news, this is the second time in the same year this has happened.

That reminds me of this one article about how German and U.S. Conservatives actually have little in common. Please read the article below, it's mind-blowing, revealing just how stupid American Politics is. https://www.politicalcompass.org/counterpoint-20211001-german-election

Do you consider Matt Khan to be a good quality teacher? He seems a bit mainstream, going on magazine covers and all.

Greetings. I ask you all this question because I come from a rather angry family. I have parents who will seem to shout, insult, curse when even a slight inconvenience is presented to them. I do recall Leo talk about ascetics, and how ascetics will intentionally make themselves suffer to “purify” themselves. Is that what is going on with angry people? Are they just “impure”? Those who attain high consciousness states, do you ever get angry?

The solution here is obvious, get some really high quality photos of yourself and set up a tinder profile. Write explicitly in your bio that you're just looking for casual hookups and not a serious relationship.

He's got my vote, f*** the two party system. I'm sick of voting for lying corporate candidate #1 vs #2.
