This guy is incredibly dishonest and incompetent when it comes to understanding stats and claims regarding the vaccines. One time he used the VAERS database as clear evidence for vaccine deaths - and that tells me automatically - how much he doesn't actually care about investigating anything related to the topic, how dishonest and incompetent he is and how he is only interested in impulsively reiterating complete nonsense without doing 5 second research or thinking before he opens his mouth on the issue. https://house.louisiana.gov/H_Video/VideoArchivePlayer?v=house/2021/dec/1206_21_HW (from 35:00 you can enjoy his dishonest claims using the VAERS database as evidence) The VAERS database is where you can report stuff but it doesn't prove causality or anything. VAERS literally has a website where they tell you this: He has been consistent with his vaccine "scepticism" since the beginning of the pandemic, regardless of the lack of evidence for his claims. If he would be and if he would have been an honest sceptic , then he would have waited for a study to come out proving an actual causation between those death and the vaccine, but of course he is and was just reiterating his points very confidently without any tangible evidence.

If you want to do, achieve or improve or participate in anything or if you want to destroy or build anything - you need willpower. The more will you have, the more things you can do. Without will you can't exert your unique self , you can't get shit done, you can't do spiritual work or any work or activity. - Will is the basis of your life and maybe the basis of life in general, so if you lose all your will, you will eventually die. On this forum, its very common to talk about that everything is relative, and that nothing is inherently meaningful, but more like you give meaning to things or you project meaning onto things. That could make it so, that you lose drive to do anything, because why would you do anything if objectively everything is meaningless? What can give you drive to improve yourself or to get shit done, or to dive deep into your life purpose or to do spiritual work in general? If you guys know any techniques or have knowledge(scientific and or spiritual) or can give advice about how to elevate willpower (the ability to consciously move towards wherever you want and or to do and achieve whatever you want), then please list it here. Im not talking about just mere motivation (because that comes and goes), but about things like how to do meaning making (consciously creating meaning in order to do something) or how to find deep meaning in whatever you want to do (finding deep drive to do something and to move towards something). It could also be about tapping into something very spiritual and deep that could provide deep drive.

@WeCome1 Thanks for the detailed and well thought out response! @allwins777 Thanks for the contribution! Im not subscribed to that idea.

I don't think this is necessarily about mature vs immature, this is more about 'can you vibe with the other person or not'. Maturity and immaturity is a separate concept from being entertaining. You can be an immature and a boring loser, just as you can be mature and have the ability to cut loose and be entertaining and crack some jokes, when the proper time comes. If you are in your mid 30s or above , you will probably have a harder time vibing with a girl in her early 20s (if you are looking for that), but of course its not impossible. Is that because they are necessarily immature? Maybe, but maybe because you are boring or have a hard time finding people that have common interests with you or you simply have a hard time finding conversation topics that are interesting to the both of you.

There is one argument, that in order for a civilization to reach a level of technological advancement ( where they can travel from galaxy to galaxy or from solar system to solar system ) , they need to figure out their social management and their social engagment with each other so much so that no one in their social group will kill everyone with their super advanced tech (this might or might not also implies spiritual development). - just for an example, from human perspective, it would be a time where we develop a super advanced AI that everyone has access to and can control, and we only need one person to intentionally or unintentionally kill or fuck up everyone. There are a couple of big assumptions in this: Figuring out a good social system (where no one is incentivised and no one wants to kill others in the social group or no one wants to kill or hurt the whole group) will necessarily imply that they will try to create similarly good relationships with other aliens All aliens that exist must be limited by the laws of physics in ways we currently understand it (there might be aliens who can just teleport here, without any need for any technological advancement or without any need to build ships and actually travel through space) You can't build an advanced enough ship, without developing and knowing about civilization destroying weapons (we don't really know if technological advancement and industrial revolutions must go down the exact same way as here on Earth) and of course there are a lot more, but those are some of the main assumptions. Basically we have no idea, and we have a lot of assumptions, because we have no alternatives to look at, we can only look at ourselves and we have to base everything on our super limited knowlege.

Love immature men, or love entertaining and or charismatic men? - Because thats a huge difference. You can be mature, but if you are boring as hell, that could be a huge negative.

I think what you need is deep self exploration and this could be one big reason why LP course couldn't really help you (you probably need to acquire much more experience exploring and challenging your self) I think you need to accept and embrace this "self-exploration" stage and really lean into it, before you try to judge or give up on your own self. Self exploration could be done in many different ways (really hardcore contemplation [where you are in a highly concentrated and deep state and where you drop every thought and or assumption about your own self and try to start from scratch and see what branches of thought will come up and form] ; hardcore endurance workout/challenge where you really push yourself to the absolute limits and explore the raw nature and aspects of your mind and make your mind much more resilient to discomfort and suffering [here I would mention David Goggins who used this method to find his own self and to face his own demons] Its incredible how much we can change if we really accept all the pain and suffering that comes with a self mastery journey. What you need right now (imo) is to try to build up some trust with yourself, and the way you do that is by setting up small challenges or tasks every day that you know you can finish but are still somewhat uncomfortable. As time goes on, and as you finish more and more challenges, your trust will grow and you will be able to attack bigger challenges and goals (and by all that, doing even deeper self exploration and trust building). if you manage to do that , then any time you feel unmotivated or when you feel down, you will be able to bring up that list in your own mind (or you can write all those things down on a paper if you want to) and bring to your awareness that you are actually capable of self control, self mastery and achieving goals and you have already managed to accomplish all those things on your list, so you can use that list as a trust builder and as an endless fuel for motivation ( and once you manage to create that list, the more things you put on that list, the more power you will be able to generate to make that list even bigger )

Reminds me of redpillers who put 'Alpha' in their bio.

Here is the original without any zoom or edit: Put it on 0.25x speed and ufortunately you won't see anything special.

It is, if you take a look at it from an unzoomed perspective its clear that it is just a shadow. Fuck these guys for not being able to actually do a clear video about aliens (if they actually speak the truth). How hard it is for the first guy (who is walking in front of everyone to hold a fucking phone in his hand before he checks their backyard?) I would probably shit myself if it would happen at myplace, - but if I would take enough courage to take a look at it - , I would definitely make sure to hold a camera in my hand, because its an extremely special occasion.

The supplements are not expensive, the research process is what is very costly (mostly doing all the measuring and evaluating and monitoring those numbers is what costs millions every year)

This is why its important to make a difference between intelligence and wisdom. Generally speaking, the smarter you get - counterintuitively - the more prone you will get to be a victim of self-deception. The reason for that is because you will be able to create and generate more and more sophisticated and deep rationalizations, arguments to others and to your own self; you will be better at creating your own ideas and defense for those ideas, so much so, that you will be less and less able to see through your own bullshit (unless you do consciousness work, where you zoom out, and take a look at it from a bigger picture or change your whole framework); and there will be less and less people who will be able to properly challenge your ideas, and all that can make you feel even stronger that you are right. In other words, you will be more better at defending your own framework (it can be a wordlview or an ideology or any specific idea or belief or bias of yours), and you will be less and less interested in changing the foundational assumptions of your own framework and can only argue inside your framework - and of course because you are so good at defending and comfortable inside your own framework - most people will never be able to challenge you properly , unless they can make you realize that your framework as a whole is not the best (even though it might be logically consistent). One could even say that the ego will get more and more antifragile (the more you attack the framework or the idea - depending on how intelligent the ego - the better it will get at defending the wordview or the idea)

Yeah. Maybe Bryan will invite you in his team and you can get inside his rich circle and take your LP to the next level @Michael569

Notice how you talk that women are so emotional, but at the same time the basis of this whole thread is coming from the place of you being upset. This whole thread is a big coping mechanism for you to deal with your emotions. You are doing endless rationalisations so that you don't need to take any accountability. Do you think a self-confident, well established, successful man would spent his life writing endless excuses why women is in the wrong?

Yeah I agree, I was just trying to challenge the idea, that "we already have most of the structural/existential things figured out", but I might have misinterpreted you, because it seems, we essentially agree that: Bro, all your constant talk and obsession about power, reminds me of Vegeta:

Have you seen the 2nd one?

Imo, our limitations determine how much we comprehend and how we perceive the fundamental dynamics and nature of life. - Can we actually decouple our perception of the fundamental dynamics of life from our limitations (when it comes to our ability to percieve, remember, comprehend,sense etc) and if yes, how would we know it? - or in other words: Is our perception of the fundamental dynamics of life actually = to all the fundemantal dynamics of life? - Would an ant have the same type of awakening about the fundamental nature of life, or it would be completely different in quality and in nature compared to humans? - Is our perception of enlightenment or awakening would be the exact same with a completely different brain or brainwiring?- would we even call it Awakening the same way as we do right now? Think about all the limitations when it comes to our contemplation and inquiry: Our brain can't really make sense of paradoxes and it start to struggle and break down. Our ability to think is limited by Law of excluded middle, and the law of noncontradiction and there is so much more limitation. The big mindfuck here is our perception of our own limitations, because thats what I questioned above. Is our ability to percieve our own limitations show our own limitations or is that limited itself by limitations that we can't percieve or know of?

This + finding intelligent alien life could both dramatically change our own view and the way we do philosophy and how we engage with the world. + of course gene editing and all kinds of other stuff that can help elevate our limitations when it comes to contemplation and thinking and questioning.

Our mind is way too fucking addicted to the internet and social media. Your challenge is only possible if you literally move somewhere, where there is no internet in a 50km radius and where you need to walk to get there. One of the biggest mistake when it comes to these challenges, is that we start with a very good, strong , motivated state of mind, and we forget and we have a hard time intuiting how hard these challenges can become when we have a low state of mind. So when you make a decision or a plan and your state of mind is extremely high, you should maybe cut in half the intensity or the duration of your challenge (because you are mindful that your state of mind probably won't stay the exact same way, when you started) or at the very least have some plan for what you will do, when the urges come. Yeah you won't really see novel points or any critical engagement with any material, especially when it comes to spirituality or philosophy. People here have a full list of deflection and self-deception arsenal that they can use, so they don't need to think or critically engage with anything (just bring up solipsism or spiral dynamics and you can know, that you are right and superior to everyone else).

I don't know if there is anything that could trump the unproductiveness and the irony of these debates about the Absolute and nonduality.

Stop with these incel posts. This thread screams the "Who hurt you bro" especially when it comes to @Mesopotamian and @DreamScape

This reminds me of fundamentalist christians, when they say "buddy, you can't falsify the christian God".

Thats definitely the future, and we are not talking about just physical health , but mental health also. Imagine from your birth having an AI friend that as time goes on, learns more and more things about your psychology, personality type, your strength and weaknesses , everyday tracks a lot of physical markers of yours, knows what you drink and eat at what time and in what quantity, knows all your potentially destructive and self deceptive behaviours, learns what excuses you use, and what your general logic and thoughtprocess is , maybe able to track your stress levels in such a precise way, that in the future it might be able to predict and then create situtations that can actually make you more resilient and strong by exposing you to proper levels of stress that you are capable of handling and going through and there is so much more.

This is not something new or surprising, this has always been the case - that rhetoric is important and its important for everyone - and it is dishonest to say otherwise. For instance, If there is someone who is constantly calling you and your mother and your family and your friends names, you will automatically be less open to what that person has to say and thats good , because why would you? Why would you give the same amount of time and attention to everyone without analysing their level of consciousness, education, knowledge, character, openness , intelligence etc. The problem comes when you delude yourself so much, that you think that using asshole rhetoric is necessary. Delivering and conveying your message in an asshole way isn't necessary - its a choice - and it is counterproductive. You can say that 1)"the sky is blue" or you can say 2)"the sky is fucking blue and I am better than you in every possible way , you pathetic,worthless loser". If the main message was to communicate the color of the sky, then you can see how full of noise the second example is, and how much harder it is to be open to it and how it makes the focus on character attack, rather than whats actually important.
