Someone here

I'm not playing any games . I'm saying Its like forming an opinion on someone after interacting with them or just seeing them. You will behave in a way like, you know the other person completely and you can anticipate their actions in a +ve or a -ve way, based on your opinions formed on them. Judging the people is nothing but coming to a conclusion about them, by analyzing their appearance and behavior . Judging is not a bad thing. Judging is inevitable. But remember one thing this will only and only reflect you. You will never realize someones situation unless you face it. It is very easy to judge a person, but the tough thing is to be empathetic. So be brave and go for the tough one. I hope I help you.

@Razard86 if you assume that there are low consciousness people..then you automatically assume yourself to be high consciousness..relative to them .and that does put you in a low consciousness mode .namely judging people. But you trick yourself into believing you are not judging them based on the appearance for example...but on "their " consciousness. Consciousness isn’t an object, a process or a pattern. Most people use the word when referring to the contents of consciousness, which are indeed processes, patterns and objects. But the important part, the thing that distinguishes consciousness from everything else, is it’s subjective nature - the awareness that you have of the contents of consciousness. It’s this awareness that some people realize their identities with. After such a realization you don’t decide to change your life. In fact you don’t make any more decisions at all, because decision-making, weighing up the pros and cons of a situation and choosing the actions that appear to provide the most benefit, is no longer relevant when you realize that you are the basis of everything. In this case you don’t do anything, everything just happens, but from the outside it appears that you are acting in some optimal way.

@Schizophonia daily meditations my friend. You can just watch the space between thoughts. It's very effective. Give it a try . Hope you get better progressively soon ?

No .when you die in a dream you ALWAYS immediately wake up . You might fall asleep again and have another separate dream. But only after you've woken up from the previous dream.

Good one. Very clever argument. Thanks for opening my mind to this possibility

As you guys know ..I'm a solipsist..I don't believe in an external objective world full of others. And my argument that since all of one’s perception of reality occurs within one’s consciousness, one cannot be sure that there is a reality outside one’s consciousness. From within the mind (where all perception is) we cannot prove external reality exists at all. There may be nothing to correspond to what we perceive. It may all be in one’s head. I think it's a Strong argument. I don’t know how you’d disprove it! However, you’ll note that anyone advancing that argument nevertheless behaves as if people are real entities they have to interact with to get results. They act as if . What's the relationship between solipsism and conspiracy theories? Well ,Either we’re all real people with this inability to prove something exists outside our heads, in which case it’s business as usual for any conspiracies why should such a wonky argument make a difference? ..or the conspiracy theorist is the only one who exists. In which case big deal, you’d still expect the figments to act like people, like they all always do, and conspiracies can go on without a hitch! Inside the only existing person’s head. I suppose that someone who’s paranoid and believes that there are conspiracies against him or her might well be a solipsist. It occurred to me decades ago that “it was all about me.” It was a sign of growing maturity on my part. So be careful before you entertain solipsistic worldview quickly without taking into consideration the consequences..one of which is that you will feel that the whole world and all people are in a conspiracy against you .trying to hide from the fact that you are the only one home. However, it's easy to get out of this mentality..because if you were truly a solipsist you wouldn't believe that there is other people or world out there trying to fool you anyways. Because truly and with all the meaning In the world..you are the only one home . Gotta just make peace with that .

Most non-dualists are also monist idealists. That is, they maintain that all reality is mental, a view which cannot easily be distinguished from solipsism which maintains that only my mind is real. (Of course nobody wants to be called a solipsist so idealists all take great pains to make this distinction.)

Solipsism is the position of the utter skeptic. It is the assertion that you cannot be certain anything exists but yourself, and you cannot even be sure of what exactly you are, only that you exist in some fashion.

Let’s say it is a world where solipsism holds true and it is the construct of one’s mind. In that case, there are billions upon billions of “true” worlds, as you would perceive your world as the only world, and everyone else just a part of it. But, let’s say a solipsist runs into another solipsist. They think that the other is wrong, and merely a part of their imagination and their mind. They are stuck in a loop of whoever is “right” when in reality there is no true answer because there are so many different people arguing what is true and what isn’t. as they both see themselves as the only real person and the only real mind. Solipsism is a philosophy that, like others, technically, can’t be proven wrong with logic, because it’s wholly subjective.

If you want to be Happy, Happiness should come within you. So meditation helps to exaggerate that happiness, so you could be the happiest person on the planet. Put it this way, when you don't know happiness is an internal thing, you do a lot of other things to get satisfied. So if you spend some time with meditation, you could develop that Happiness within at no cost. So when you learn and know how to be Happy you don't need that extra work. Then again if you are Happy, you become Healthy. What more do you want? You can enjoy your Life.

What are you talking about lol ? we are just star dust ,bro. and the universe does not give a crap about us . It's like when you step on ants as you walk by the street . You sure think you are the center of the universe aren’t you?

So are you suggesting that spirituality as a whole is a scam ? I don't see your point clearly. I think you've been highly influenced by Nahm's communication that you just parroting what he says . If there is no spiritual teacher nor student because there is no separate self then why are you on two spiritual forums? What are you trying to achieve with engaging in spiritual communities?

Will you try drugs as well? The whole point is that no matter what you do you are not gonna find true fulfilment and happiness in life by chasing after external things . Sure go have sex and do cocaine all you want.. and notice how empty and useless everything you do is . Meditation is the way ?.

I love and respect all people. However, in this human form, time, energy, money, and resources are very limited, so... I don't take weight loss advice from morbidly obese people. I don't take financial advice from financially poor people. And I don't take any advice from unhappy people. By unhappy people, I mean those who lack what I call "inner peace", meaning the consistent contentment of spiritual freedom (a.k.a. self-discipline). Some people might call it "nirvana" or "the consistent joy of enlightenment". Some might just call it "true happiness". Some might just call it plain old happiness. As a human writing to you right now, I consider myself to be someone who does consistently enjoy the true happiness and consistent contentment of free-spirited inner peace. In short, I consider myself to be happy, truly happy. As such, if you want advice from a happy person, here's my advice to you (offered politely for you to take or leave as you see fit): Don't take any advice from unhappy people. That doesn't mean blindly do the opposite of what they advise either. Or to blindly do the opposite of what one commands makes you just as much a slave to the commands. Rather, I simply suggest you disregard unhappy people's advice entirely, as much as reasonably possible. You might ask ..what it takes to be happy? And how did I achieve this happiness.? Well..I first got rid of my past trauma and anxiety by seeing a psychiatrist who gave me the appropriate medications for my condition. So after a year of taking these medications (which I talked about here ): I'm now completely free from anxiety and panic attacks . Then I put an end to all my bad habits..I stopped smoking completely..I stopped looking at porn and wanking my Johnson completely..I stopped drinking Soda and eating Nutella and Ice-cream completely. The only addiction I have left is my addiction to this forum .which I'm working on at the moment..so you gonna see me less active and posting a lot less over the next year . I built healthy habits ..now I meditate one hour every day ..using a technique that I myself invented it. I talked about it here : I got into lifting weights recently. I do 100 push ups everyday .and in a matter of 90 days I expect I will get jacked . Without going to the gym. All in the home . And finally I want to emphasise that your happiness and well being are the only things that matter in life in my opinion. It's even more important than enlightenment or finding the absolute truth of existence. Because even when you are seeking truth you are actually seeking happiness without being aware of of it . You seek the happiness that will dawn to you when you finally figure reality out . But you can go directly to happiness and fulfilment and fill your life with peace and joy . You just have to stop being lazy and work your booty off a little bit to make life an amazing experience.

There are degrees of lucidity. Just like in a dream .you can be lucid in the dream. But to fully awaken you have exit the dream altogether. Completely. As long as you are inside the dream ..you are not fully awake. The question is..Where will a spiritual awakening take you? Nowhere! It will only return you to where you already are and always have been. Its job is not to take you somewhere, it is to bring you back from your dreams and fantasies. That is precisely why it is called awakening. I'm living more in the moment and fully aware of how I'm imagining others . I'm carefree. Listless. And more calm and peaceful .its the peace that passes understanding .

Heaven isn't some lifeless goalless future where all goals have been completed and no desire is left. It's isn't some lifeless future world so terribly and awfully perfect that there is nothing worth doing; No challenges, no stumbles, no failure-ridden paths to triumphs, followed by yet more of the same. Some awful state where one has no unfilled desire to achieve more, to climb higher, to fight and hopefully defeat another worthy tough opponent, no unfilled desire motivating one to fight another deliciously grueling fight to overcome a worthy tough challenge. It's not that. It isn't that because that doesn't exist. That imagined future state does not and cannot exist. And it would be unimaginably terrible if anything remotely like it could and did exist. It would be a state so incredibly lifeless and unmoving that it is worse than any death one can imagine. For it is a death without rebirth. It would be a lifeless nothingness so extreme that nothing could come out of it. And that awful absurd lifelessness is what some people desperately do their best to imagine when they imagine a heaven. Heaven is to wake up every day, look around at your world, and honestly say, "When I think about heaven, I imagine this," that is inner peace. That is true happiness. That is nirvana. That is heaven. It is to be in heaven and know it's heaven

Well said as usual brother ?. . I think that learning how to self-reflect or meditate is as important as primary education. Unfortunately, many of us are thrown into this world without the basic tools to leverage the mind-body connection. This may cause anxiety, depression and chronic diseases.but hey It’s never too late…

@Gesundheit2 ?

It's not a random unknown unjustified object with dirty smell and horrible taste . It's a fundamental piece of infinity. If you can't see God/Love in a beautiful piece of dog poop ..then you are not fully awake. Deconstruct more

Love is sexual energy .

There is a "hide " option.

Amen bro ? You wanna try it for dinner? ?

Even dog shit is heaven.

Dude..relax..I'm agreeing with you...all I'm saying is A spiritual teachers job is to give you a path, a practice and then you can go away and get on with it. So it is really looking at the path, the practice and the teachings that the spiritual teacher is generously giving you, and if you feel they are useful. If they try to keep you with them, or keep you constantly coming back, and/ or they are taking from you, demanding of your constant attention or worship and obedience then you might just wonder if they are worth your time. If they are telling you not to think for yourself or imposing a belief system upon you, or belittling you in any way that is really an abuse of power. These kinds of abuses do seem to happen much more in the Guru tradition.
