  1. Who's brain ? You . Is there a difference between an empty glass and a full glass ?
  2. Why do you dream of nightmares at night ? When you have a nightmare..aren't you yourself creating this bad experience for yourself ? Ultimately ..it's a philosophical question. Some philosophers argue against the problem of evil (why an all powerful all loving God creates suffering?) By saying existence is better than non-existence. And whatever ends up happening in life is better off than pure nothingness. I'm not sure if that's true under all conditions . Would you rather go to sleep and never wake up again? ..or go to sleep and drift off between endless dreams ..some of them are pinky and beautiful and some of them are horrific and painful?
  3. Anyone relates that they feel a need or desire to worship something? Be it God or anything else . Human beings have worshipped all kinds of things since the dawn of time . They worshipped fire..they worshipped the sun ..they worshipped sexual organs ..they worshipped idols and rocks ..and of course they worshipped God. But if God is within myself since its impossible to separate God from his creation (because if God was alone in eternal birthlessness then how did he come up with material to create the world with ? He had nothing else but himself .so for that reason I say God is not separate from creation or from myself ). But I'm NOT God-Realized. I have my own spiritual understanding of things but that's not what I'm asking here . I feel the need to pray to something. That's why I'm attracted to Islam because Muslims spend a huge time of their daily lives praying and worshipping (they pray 5 times a day with specific mantras and yogic postures etc). So let's discuss this please.
  4. The title is ofcourse inspired by Leo's two videos called life advice for young people. I just rewatched them yesterday and benefited a lot. I want to start a megathread of top advice for youngsters. I consider the range of age from 18-35 as young . Most people aren't fully mature during this range. Although to each rule there are exceptions. The reason for starting this thread is an epistemological problem I'm facing which I made a thread about it before .and that is how to connect relative and practical knowledge with absolute knowledge. As an example..whats relative could be something like should i take this job ? Or should i leave college? Or should i join the military? Or should i get married in this age ?etc . And what is absolute is basically i don't know anything. But of course the meaning isn’t that i can't write or read or use the toilet..but i'm speaking on the existential level. I have no concrete clear as day answers to life's deepest questions on the existential level . i've struggled with anxiety basically for my whole life .. and it set me back in many ways. Even tho I’m getting therapy for anxiety I still feel hopeless sometimes. Other guys my age have their basic life together while I still haven’t got my first job..i live alone so thats handled how moved out or have friends but i don't pay my bills .my family do .i have no lasting relationship or a girfriend..even though thats something I'm interested in for a while now .i had sex exactly 5 times . 3 of them were phone sex with hookers who you pay them charge cards and you get to fuck them through the phone lol. And two times with a girl who fucked me with a strapon in the best night of my whole life but that's a story for another day . I’m in college studying business..but I don’t know what I want to do for a career. These are supposed to be the best years of my life but all I do is resent myself. I haven’t accomplished much if anything I can think of. I do have hobbies and things that i enjoy like reading books or watching movies but loneliness also is present in my life . When I get time free I’m on my phone until my eyes physically hurt.and basically 50% of my time is free time. Im either in college or alone at home .and when I'm alone at home you guys know what I'm doing .just look at my post count. Unfortunately most people here accuse me of mental masturbation and I understand but I guess I'm interested and very attracted to philosophy and I like to express myself or ask questions. I know that I'm rare..special and unique. Now what? I need practical ways to succeed at life. How to overcome the massive issues i face due to my overinvestiment in philosophical woo? Also my so called spiritual work lead to me having no sense of self and I don’t know who I am anymore. I'm just conscious being and probably the only conscious being and I'm here and now in this present moment observing this universe aaaaaand...well..that's it? What now lol? But back to the topic of hobbies..I'm not particularly good at anything and it stresses me out when people ask what I'm talented at..other than thinking about metaphysical stuff I'm not good at that much things . How do I genuinely improve my self-esteem? I guess taking self improvement Seriously is the first step . I've been focusing on myself this past year and virtually stopped caring what anyone thought of me and now people like me and want to be around me. I don't I need bro advice. I need Top notch shit. So if you think you've gotten your shit together so tight then I want you to write essays here about that like a professional self-improvement coach . What are some “self-improvement” tips that actually make you fee better ?
  5. That's an ideal to strive for .but it's difficult for most people unless you are some full blown stoned fana-al-fana Sufi dervish 😂. Do you suggest any practices to worship God in "an enlightened " way without breaking the duality between God and oneself?
  6. Thanks. No I'm not talking about a specific organized religion. I like Islam but I don't call myself a Muslim. I'm not saying I should follow any holy book or moral code or set of beliefs or memorize mantras or chant or do any specific form of orthodox religious practices. I'm God in the end but I think I chose deliberately to hide this fact from myself and play hide and seek with myself. That's why awakening exists .unless one is God realized then I think he or she should have some kind of relationship or understanding with God within themselves which they don't know yet how to unleash.
  7. Interesting. The ultimate understanding is formless .it's the knowledge that nothing . Just sit and be silent and you will get it ..get it all . On the practical relative level definitely a human understands better than cat . And an enlightened human might understand things that the average Joe with a prayer book doesn't.
  8. I can watch movies online but I want to save them . I'm undertaking a "project " of compiling a big pile of cool material to watch offline on my laptop when the electricity is shut down in my city . So I'm compiling all kinds of stuff ..movies ..books ..porn videos ..music videos ..YouTube videos ..Leo's videos ..and more . What is the best free site to download horror and action movies that you know if ? If you've got one please link it here. Thanks .
  9. What's a download manager? Link one please .
  10. I copy-paste the link then post it in the downloading apps/websites .sometimes it works...sometimes it doesn't. Unless i totally misunderstood you and that's not what you are talking about .
  11. Just link the website please
  12. Yes I've been searching for Dark Knight for a month now and I can't download it .
  13. It doesn't always work . You think I haven’t tried ?
  14. Haven't watched the vid in OP or read the replies but Emerald you can't understand the relativity of platonic pipe dreams utterly made up fantastical concepts like "Beta " vs "Alpha"?
  15. Great. Now do the final step : Islam. But with proper understanding of what this Islam is .
  16. Eastern mystics have discovered this 5000 years ago lol.the ego is kind of "intelligent" (it's not just a dumb robotic system) and it will modify its behaviour with reality . It seems like the ego is neccesary for surviving (If you want to survive in a body.. a selfish "I" thought is neccesary to know and interact with the world). But the ego can become self-aware (like it is connected with a ubs-cable to Consciousness Lol) and be less neurotic and have more concious behaviours aligned with the Truth of reality. (But of course.. the ironic thing is..that if the ego would be really aligned with this Truth..he would just dissapear Lol).
  17. @Never_give_up you're welcome. if you want someone to talk with hit me a private message.
  18. @Never_give_up thanks for opening up. All these things you mentioned can be improved .you just don't how yet .so the situation is not hopeless like someone who has a cancer .so the two points I asked you whether they apply to your life situation or not are not intact. By your own admission you said you feel slightly better right now . So I would say that means you are going to stick around for a while and not kill yourself just yet . I dealt with the question of suicide early on in my teen years . I just discovered that life is just a piece of shit and you just suffer and die in the end anyways so what's the fucking point of grinding and suffering for 60 or 70 or 80 years then die anyways..?..why not just kill myself and rest in peace? The answer is complex : 1- you do not know what happens after death . Maybe you incarnate as a jew in Hitler's Nazi era . Maybe you incarnate as a cow in a slaughter shop . So how do you know that death will end your suffering and not just increases it? I'm sure you reasoned with yourself this point . 2-it is not true that life is pure shit. You can't deny that happiness exist . And hope exist .People who kill themselves do so because they are hopeless. You need to find a source of hope .that could be God..Going to the church ..prayer ..practicing gratitude..etc Hope you live long fullfling life with peace brother 🙏.
  19. @Natasha Tori Maru if what you are saying is true ..then why people commit suicide? Look at these suicide statistics https://afsp.org/suicide-statistics/ Don't delete yourself. Watch Leo's videos and work on improving your life everyday . Can you please open up about why you want to suicide?
  20. @UnbornTao what you are asking has nothing to do with what I said . There is no such thing as perception or logic which are more fundamental than being/this . I was pointing 👉 to direct being which is not a process that happens through perception or time .you can't have logic or perception or time without being. But you can have being without these things (like in deep sleep).
  21. @UnbornTao 1-take anything .your hand ..that window ..the moon..the cats ..literally anything. 2-i call all these things "THIS ". 3-" THIS " is just "THIS". What it is is as it is. Exactly as it appears. Nothing is hidden.a cat is a cat. A dog is a dog .a sun is a sun. An electron is an electron . Experience is Experience. This is the most basic logical law EVER. It's called law of identity. Which simply says a thing is itself . If you can't get this or if you gonna argue or Poke holes in this then even God shiva can't help you .
  22. @Sincerity I don't believe there is any respectful or fruitful conversation that can happen ever again between us .so I would just refrain.
  23. @MutedMiles hi there. You quoted me in two topics in a short time. Do my post interest you ? If so i am glad . And thanks for sharing your thoughts. what you said here is not totally false . What i mean by accepting being a man is more obvious than obvious. Do you want me to break it down to you ? Girls live in their homes playing with their hair and experimenting with makeup and watching romance movies .then they get married and their lives is solved for good .the husband works and pays the bills and they just chill at home and raise the kids . Pretty comfy huh ? Whereas a man literally is under physical and mental stress virtually every day. Work and taking care of his family as he is the provider. Even if he is not married he is supposed to feed himself once he is 18+ . My question is simply are you happy with this role ?
