So suffering can't be pointed to because it is in "the mind "? How about pointing to "the mind " 😂? Obviously it's not the head or otherwise suffering can indeed be located in the body which makes your point false . What I just told you twice .

Does that apply to feelings of need and lack or just negative emotions?

What good is that beyond just being a word game? I'm hungry right now and I can point to the place of bad feeling in my stomach. Call it suffering or pain or cheesecake doesn't matter .I have to eat something.

So true. Thanks for sharing Very powerful quote 🙏.

Good job. If it wasn't rare and expensive in India (I had to find a dealer " I would've be addicted to weed as well . As you like but be careful because that's how the addiction started for me and for most people "just one..no big deal ". And then one cigarette leads to the other .

@Carl-Richard and you quit ? Congrats . How Severe was the addiction (i smoke five packs minimum per week)? And how did you quit?

@Carl-Richard First go become addicted to something really deeply then good luck pretending and preaching that overcoming addictions are a piece of cake just because people know that it's not a happy ending at the end of the road of any addiction (unless it's a healthy addiction like reading and learning).

@MellowEd no idea whats that .

Of course night and day difference. But it's hard to communicate the difference. Vaping smells nice whereas cigarettes smell "raw ". Idk like the difference between black coffee and coffee laté . Please don't try a cigarette though. The health consequences are not wroth the rush unless you become addicted like me.

OK but I'm not going to believe anything anyone says without providing any evidence whatsoever. Isn't that fair ? I mean go on YouTube and search for all kinds of mystical shit and weird phenomenon like OBEs and NDEs happeing to people from all religions and all cultures . Who's I to believe?

Can you prove this to people? Did you film it or record it in your phone ? I mean if you can actually showcase a proof of this then that would be quite something isn't it ?

Isn't it true that few months without food and you die ?and few weeks without water and you die ?

Sure bro not a big deal .how can one take you seriously when you think pornography is not a big deal ?

Like I'm in heaven.

@MellowEd yes there are obviously entities and angels and people experience all kinds of paranormal phenomenon all the time .we are not living in a materialistic universe with zero mystical stuff going on . Like you mentioned your out of body experience. But how do you jump to concluison that Christianity or jesus are a true beliefs or even justified?

@UnbornTao @Natasha Tori Maru I think you guys are a bit abusing your mod position. You can guide him in a gentle way. No need to roast his head with insults and offensive languages.

Hmm. Very speculative topic . The concept of infinity is paradoxical. If you say infinity doesn't include repetition then you make it finite .so yeah it includes repetition and that doesn't make it finite . After all..what do you think a deja vu is ?

Definition of consciousness is everything in your direct experience right now. Definition of absolute truth is the most fundamental thing in existence which cannot be reduced down to anything more fundamental and its the all and all pervasive. Consciousness =Absolute Reality .

@Hojo why so angsty?

There was a time in the past when I was arrogant that she is just parroting this trendy neo advaita type of spiritual "nonteaching" that's very popular and trendy and call her new agey but I invite anyone who doesn't know her to check her channel . She been throwing pure spiritual gold bombs for free for few years. She also hosts live streams and you can talk to her for free . Nothing new in her talk like no self and unconditional love and etc but it's such a liberation and breath of fresh air when you listen to her destroying the matrix of illusions with nectar of love . Oh uh I'm already sounding like her lol

@Sugarcoat if we are going to die anywas..why not kill ourselves? But ..if we are going to die anyways...why kill ourselves?

@Oppositionless have you ever watached a single video from Leo brother ? such a basic newbie question can't come from someone who watches Leo while doing the dishes .his entire career consists of saying in the darkness : consciousness is truth and truth is nothing. Nothing is consciousness and consciousness is truth .truth is consciousness and consciousness is nothing.

@emil1234 congrats and good luck. I'd say just Google them . A tangent question here ..what are the job opportunities to work in as a philosophy major graduate In your country ?

The opposite of whatever you are trying to say here . What you are doing in a nutshell is exploring your infinite imaginative power of mind . You could think up a million different wacky ideas and not just millions but endless . You know you can do that but you can also choose to not do that . Don't get me wrong ..there is no "chooser " but a chooser is not required for shifting focus from creepy thoughts to "normal " thoughts . I could think nothing practical is ever possible. How can I plan for example: I'm gonna save 5000 dollars ..then get married then travel to the US and start a business or project and have kids and eventually become a millionaire....but how can i plan that far ahead when I might go to sleep and never wake up again ?!

Yes it literally says in the quran that men can physically beat their wives if they disobeyed them.which means this text should be read in it's cultural and historical context. After reading the entire quran myself and listening to it being recited in Arabic I say half the quran was indeed God talking to Muhammad (meaning his higher self talking to him) and the other half is his own fabrication and pure egotism. So yeah either cherry pick the good verses and ignore the corrupt verses or just throw the entire quran away and become Allah.
