Every time I suffer is because I am wishing for things to be connected. Being defensive is the surest way to be divided because you are interrupting the flow of Intelligence. Every area of your life you're is trying to upgrade you're essentially training your ability to maintain or to produce a constant flow of intelligence where there was none from YOUR end. So you're basically a server that needs constant tech support for repairing and making new connections. And to connect it to the ugliness discussion: ugliness is division. Edit: I meant to post this in the blog discussion.

I agree, it is not as simple as thinking equality will solve everything. But I am sincerely more concern about how we are the same animal. In fact my view integrates the differences, because it means you know how to apply the correct medicine. But yes, you still have to pay attention to the differences just as a part of the survival quest. This is a politic dilema.

And I must be the only one that lays down in bed to contemplate. I don't fall asleep unless I had a shitty night. But I always have back pain without back support.

The thing with man and woman is that we are fundamentally the same. Like no matter your sex you will be impacted by some lack of love and you will thrive when love gets to you, or when you are accepted. And this view has very practical implications. If you view women and men this way then there is no room for misogyny for example, if that's something you're worried about. The only real difference is what bias each one has. For men is finding attractiveness in the feminine very easily and women viceversa. But if your bias is different you will pursue different things by definition. I am not disputing there are differences, but in my opinion it is far more important to study how the ego works and the degrees of development.

I get the sense that you instead meant "perfectionism". Because the flow states that you enter are virtue itself. Or Spirit the way I see it.

No, because it tastes so good. But I've only doing it for 2 weeks, it is not that much time and my meals can vary some days. If ain't broken don't fix it...

This month I started with a consistent meal plan and I discovered a great breakfast. Breakfast: Smashed banana + avocado, 1/2 cup oats, 1/2 cup almond milk, handful walnuts, handful blueberries, 6g raw cocoa powder (the citric one), 4g creatine, 1 tbsp eevo. Plus 3-4 scrambled eggs on the side to finish it off. That's about 1000 calories. That shit is sweet, chocolate flavored and energizing. Lunch: Lentils stew with sweet potatoes and about 200g beef (or chicken). This would be another 900-1000 calories Then I eat a snack that can be more walnuts, the rest of an avocado, a fruit, or whatever. More oats. Just to go into the 2500 calories since I am trying to build muscles. I start at ~10:00am and stop eating at ~18:00, just to leave 4hs before bed. I am currently suplementing with krill oil capsules, D3+K2, B complex and sometimes magnesium butit is pretty much covered.

I want to try barefoot shoes. I am yet to find shoes that don't hurt my toes.

This is controversial territory but here it is: The only thing to disagree with is people spending lots of time in the forum without doing the actual work. Of course I say this for myself. I can't really control what others do. The environment gets too polluted otherwise.

The rate of insights I am having while watching your work is ascending. Specially when you present it to others that aren't familiar with the concepts while seeing their natural reaction. In this podcast I was finally grasping a lot of how survival is and how much it is present. I cannot put it into words but it is very obvious once you see it, but it takes loads of work to perfect your understanding. Sometimes years can pass before I understand what you try to communicate. It is amazing stuff. I completely understand why one would devote his/her life to this work.

This is because conscious development feels like death. And most people learn to be conformists from their peers and parents without understanding that facing the fear of death is crucial in life. Because therein lies freedom. And if you say this people will confuse it for physical death which shows how unconscious most humans are because they cannot understand this simple distinction.

Congratulations on your progress in mindfulness. It turns out your mundane breathing is a miracle.

Just a different medium than video form.

I still cannot understand how is this something that people believe.
