@Holykael god can't be that simple. You're simplifying it way to much. I mean, it's a nice try, but no cigar. You make it sound like everyone is absolutely fucked. It is to much. Too much. Too much to figure out in a life-time. We're looking at something so smart, a singularity, a mega-mind that goes goes meta on everything, even itself. The human mind cannot ACTUALLY comprehend the truth. The Human mind does not except two opposing things to happen simultaneously (for example, the mind cant compute an object being in a space, and nothing being in that space simultaneously, it is either one or the other) (Another example, your mind cannot compute flipping a coin and it lands on head with tails facing flat on the table, yet tails also facing the ceiling at the same time) The Human mind can only compute linearly, one event after the other. Language can only point to experience. Pinch the palm of your hand, now caress the palm of your hand. Note the contrasting experience. Now try get someone who has never felt either of those experiences to understand what those experiences actually are via words. Impossible. Its like trying to describe colors to a blind person. Its never gonna work. What we need in this work is DIRECT EXPERIENCE. And not conceptualization.

In what why? Do you suffer any illness or disease physically ? Or is it just these wild ideas about infinity that's causing you mental distress?

@Holykael are you sure ? I mean are you fucking 10000% certain that all these "hellish Realms of infinity " are actually real and that you will CERTAINLY experience them in the future? If you are honest with yourself..the answer is no. If your answer is yes ..then please prove it to yourself (before proving it to others ). A big trap in this work is parroting what the teacher said. If I'm being honest..all my ideas about solipsism were borrowed from leo .and I suggest that all your ideas about "infinity " are borrowed from Leo as well.

Please elaborate.

I AM your experience. I only exist within your experience. Close your eyes or go to sleep and I will disappear from your experience.

Lemme ask you this ? Is this "infinity " present in your experience right now ? Like can you touch it ? Taste it? See it ? Smell it ? Or is it just a concept /belief you hold ?

Dude ..are you even conscious of absolute infinity? Or did you just borrow this idea from leo ? Be honest with yourself. If its causing you so much mental suffering.. Then drop it. And pick a hobby or something positive.

Yes .there is no contradiction. What you have to understand is that there is literally no difference between you being the only conscious being or whether others are real . The problem with solipsism is not whether it's objectivey true or not(is it actually the case that I am the only one out there)..but is that it is absolutely true subjectively regardless of that. You are trapped inside your own subjective experience in any case.. So even though I am aware right now from my pov.. From your pov that doesn't matter and there is no such thing.. There is only your awareness.. There is no such thing as "my awareness" in your awareness.. There is only these words in front of you right now and that's the actualilty of what is.. Anything else is just assumptions you add on top of it. .you say "of course there is someone there writing these words.. They couldn't just write themselves lol".. Really?. In your dream.. The entire dream and all the people inside of it..and their actions.. Are nothing but your creation.. They have no Reality of their own outside your imagination.. The only real thing in the dream underneath all the scattered phenomenon is YOU. Its the same with the waking world . We are conscious but only within your consciousness. If you die today the entire world will die with you .

This is where it gets tricky ..because in the dream everything exists within your consciousness and the other characters are not conscious. However in this waking world that you are experiencing right now ..others are conscious BUT still they exist within your consciousness. "People" can simultaneously be dreamt by you and have "their own" subjective experience at the same time .

No .its no different than an input a dream character can give me at a dream at night . It's made of my consciousness. Everything and I mean EVERYTHING exists within your consciousness . Where else could it be? Take a look ?.

Some form of reality must exist. But it is merely information passing into your consciousness. There is nothing clearly objective about it. All you are truly aware of is the information fed to your consciousness and the processing of this information. I do not know if I am talking to other consciousnesses right now. All I know is what I sense. Bottom line is, reality is, at face value, perceived not objective.

@Consept I do choose porn over the real thing .and I have my justifications: Who says I even have a choice ? How many of those who “consume porn” actually have the option of having sex with a real person instead ? Some people may, in fact, prefer porn rather than going to all the trouble of getting into a sexual relationship. Because .. the absolutely “least trouble” one would have to go through in order to have sex with a real person is to co-ordinate schedules and find a place that is mutually acceptable. One might also be required to engage in a long term relationship ( not everyone is turned on by the “zipless fuck” ). There might be an exchange of money required ... if not directly ( prostitution ) then indirectly - paying for movie & a meal. Marriage? No fucking way .I know I'm never going to marry a single person .because I like diversity. And that's one of the reasons why porn wins sex here ..is you can have (although virtual or fake ) sex with endless diversity of women. I guess its just a different experience. I don't know If it's better or worse. Its something I have to experience first in order to make my mind about.

You are projecting the idea that what you are experiencing right now has a deeper independent reality to it. Which you call the external objective world. You Believe the world exists when you are not perceiving it. recognize it’s a more of convoluted belief system that requires extra mind baggage.. that careful.. objective.. direct study of experience and reality does not need. In fact.. if you studied your direct experience long enough you’d notice all sensory perception has no solidity to it at all.. it’s just a fluid.. spacious.. fluctuating field of is-ness popping into and out of a void. the “objective” reality science thinks is out there is quite literally impossible if they knew what they were actually studying, which is perception. The thoughts that think there’s an objective layer are also popping into and out of this void. This requires an extremely stable...mindful concentration of what is really happening vs what your mind thinks is happening. However your consciousness of the present moment is actual. regardless of whether you deny perception/consciousness, it’s here, it’s primary, it’s completely undeniable. Any extra metaphysical claims about the substance of reality are subject to unfalsifiable skepticism. The truth of the matter is that any thought cannot be Absolutely True due to the nature of thoughts existing as functions of time which is of course an illusion constructed by the mind.. the fact that thoughts are symbolic representations of reality (the map is not the territory).. and finally.. the fact that all reason and rationality will always dissolve into an infinite regress of reason where one must eventually concede that they’re taking on a belief. . And again.. It's impossible to prove an objective external world outside of your imagination due to the nature of conscious experience only having the ability to exist as experience. Consciousness is all you have to prove a world. So you are always using consciousness as the actual substance of inquiry and you cannot step outside of consciousness to verify is something outside of consciousness. When you give your back to the world your mind assumes there is a world behind you.. You do this because you need to create reality.. Because If you don't create it.. It doesn't exist. If you stop assuming anything on top of what is "actual".. You would see the only actual thing is nothing. You think the phone that you are holding is actual.. It's not.. There is no phone.. Each moment there is a changing appearance but your mind comes in and create out of this groundless flow an illusion of "object". There are no objects. Each moment you are holding a new phone.

Up.

It is an illusion . Just like the universe you live in when you dream at night. Everything appears to be separate and you (as a dream character) are only aware of the limited viewpoint of that dream character…but the entire dream arises from one consciousness. This universe is a waking dream of sorts. Things are considered “separate” only because of ignorance. There is no separation and no other.

The sense of being a separate self . I define myself by the awareness of the boundaries of my skin .so I'm this human being right here .it's false to claim no existence to oneself absolutely as some neo-advaitans teach. We exist .but not as separate selves. But as awareness of human identity.

The ego self. Otherwise known as the "devil " in this community. You should get rid of your ego .completely destroy it . Careful if you are a male though because your ego is localised in you know what

@Leo GuraPeople who say sleep doesn't happen are fucking hypocrites .then why you sleep like a fucking baby 15 hours every day ?and then you deny that sleep exists. Gross double standards.

That’s an interesting question, and I’ll answer it by taking a more pseudo nihilist approach, I would say nothing has meaning until we give it meaning. People (or sentient beings) are the creators of meaning of the universe. For example, when you are born, there is no particular meaning behind it. You are born because your mother and father had sex, you are just a consequence of their intercourse. It is up to you, to find meaning in your life. Something that you live for. There really isn’t a definitive meaning to anything. Either there is a disturbing abundance of meaning in the universe, or there is no meaning in the universe, it’s just an infinite flow of cause and effect. (Unless you believe in pre-determinism and theology). I’ll be honest, I like questions like these that really get me thinking. Anyways, have a good one Leo.

You are correct. Why the hell should I do the difficult work to attract real women in my life when I can just masturbate to any type of women I want? It sure is more appealing to stay in my comfort zone. But let's face it..I'm probably never going to sleep with super hot models like pornstars ..so it's ’s quite difficult to find a good substitute for porn. Im dealing with porn addition. The more you watch porn and masturbate, the farther you are from reality and real good quality sex with a real woman. Not sure, if i am Interested in women and having sex with them for now, or not…But probably in the future, i will fall in love and problems will come to my bed. Porn videos are a kind of fantasy world, where women are always sexy, horny, and ready for sex. And happy end happens every time ? That is far not truth in real relationships. The picture is bright, and emotions are high. You can be a real sex hero with your hand. But what will happen when things will come to reality? I can tell ..no erection or if i get one, it will be difficult to cum with a real woman. It will be a real problem that can destroy my private life.

Because I suck at attracting women. I always come off as a desperate immature boy when I approach women

I was browsing my old threads and I stumbled upon a funny comment from one of the members here which is @Yarco the subject of the thread was pascal's wager .which I can put it briefly as following : 1-if you believe in God and there is God you win(go to heaven). And if there is no God you don't lose anything. 2-if you DON'T believe in God and there is a god ..then you risk going to hell . Here's what @Yarco said : " If God is really all-loving then he'll overlook all the degenerate shit I've done and let me in regardless. If heaven is an infinity of mandatory worship, I think I'll enjoy a free life and take hell instead. I like the atheist Matt Dillahunty's take on this -- God is the equivalent of an abusive parent who threatens to lock you in the basement and torture you if you don't behave or tell them you love them. That makes God immoral, and I'm not going to negotiate with a terrorist just to avoid eternal suffering, so fuck God. Generally though I think that the closer you get to death, the more pascal's wager seems appealing. If you live to 80 then you can start to sincerely repent and you don't have much to lose. You got to live your life how you wanted and then you can just take it all back at the last moment. Only problem is if you die suddenly in a car accident or something before you reach that point". I laughed so hard at this ?

@Yarco yes we are obviously talking about the asshole called the Abrahamic God. The true god is of course within ourselves. You know, Bertrand Russell was once asked, “Suppose when you die you find yourself in heaven, standing before God and he says, ‘Why didn’t you believe in me.’?” Russell said, “I would reply that you didn’t provide sufficient evidence.” After all if there were a god that wanted everybody to believe in him, he could certainly do something convincing like spell out his name in stars every Thursday night. It seems that the Judaic, Christian, Islamic god wants everybody to believe in Him, not based on evidence, but based on an act of will called faith, motivated by fear of eternal torture. In other words to be an intellectual coward.

yes it is a basic life need, just like food, clothes and shelter.. So yes it is necessary. Now some might argue that you can live without it, well, so can you without clothes. But you need them. You can abstain from it, but it is a basic necessity, whether you exercise it or not is up to you.to everyone, but to some it is. It is the cherry on top, the icing on the cake. It makes you see life in brighter colors. It is an experience like any other and it’s unfortunate some people don’t get to experience it often or don’t get to experience it at all. Fortunately I exist in the Internet era where endless supply of naked women are under my fingertips (pornography). I don't know what would I have done if porn didn't exist (to surface-level satisfy some of my sexusl cravings ). I would have probably killed myself ?

@Tyler Robinson I said this because I'm actually sexually suppressed. It's kinda odd that you agree . Are you sexually suppressed as well,if you don't mind asking?
