  1. You can learn to play piano every day for half an hour and be a master after 3-4 years. But you fail to see this.
  2. Any knowledge closest to Love you can be certain is ultimate. So "awaken and you will find out" is not foolish at all. Also is very sketchy to expect someone answers everything for you as you want. If you don't think for yourself then you're cooked.
  3. I shall share my technique: There is a library in my city where it is allowed to binge read every single book in the store. And it is not just a library, it probably ranks in the Top 5 of latam. So it is pretty big, with tons of books. The fact that you can read freely means it is ok to grab a bunch of top seller books (for example, Grenee's books, finantial book's, you name it) and then go to the reading sector and check them out. This is the only way you can know a book is good or not, by reading it (duh). But of course this way is better than risking buying books you haven't checked out.
  4. Botton line: doesn't matter where you live, just don't have a victim mentality. The only real problems I see the USA have, as someone that doesn't live there, is that it is too materialistic. I don't see racism being too much of a problem nowadays, you may have a trace here and there, but most states have it very well checked
  5. And that's why a lot of indians leave the country. Just like venezuelans
  6. That should not be the real problem. China is growing a lot in terms of quality of life, they are kinda the futuristic mecca and too much people live there
  7. I've been contemplating recently, or just having it crossing my mind, that the hereditary preassure of those before us is just unavoidable. I am talking of the collective as well as the individual. If those before you just wasted their life and lived destructing then chances are next generations won't have a bright future. I will try not to make it too black and white though.
  8. Definitely report back haha
  9. This is a good topic. I personally find it interesting since I don't live in a first world country, neither in a dangerous country of the middle east. So we don't have wars and fear of terrorism but we cannot earn money as easily as in USA, for example, wich makes life harder. The problem is, you cannot understand so easily the perspective of someone living in a first world country and viceversa. The amount of stress that you live by is just huge. I am not questioning your capabilities, is just that it is obvious that moving to a decent country changes the whole story, more so that you can grasp. Nevertheless you can work it out from where you live, but to an extend. Because if you live among a caothic culture it will unfortunatelly prevent you to make the best out of the resources that we nowdays have, you will barely make any progress even having the tools.
  10. More like "discovering who I really am" bodily expression. Sehr gut!
  11. What do you mean?
  12. It is very common to see facets of inteligence that appears out of the blue at 25 or so, like the pleasure of mathematics. We are pretty unpredictable.
  13. As for the doctor or other professionals, I understand it would be foolish to avoid them.
  14. You can, first of all, study 30min to 1 hour every day which I asume you're not doing. Because is all the time you need to be at least OK. If you are putting the time and you still struggle, then I don't know what is it. Then you may want to give up one or two asignatures, which may seem counterintuitive. But as you may realize, stress wrecks your attempts at progressing in anything. It may alleviate your back enough so you can focus and advance in the other ones. Think of more strategies, it really sucks to invest your money in education and not geting at least some knowledge.
  15. Well, I do not have the direct experience of your collegue unlike you, but it is definetely possible that some institutions just suck, i.e, they have a really poor methodological guidance with their students. And that makes all the diference. It may not be your case. But if it is, then changing to a better collegue could mean you are able to skyrocket your understanding. Then other questions arise, like, Do you maintain a daily study routine? Does the subject that you're trying to study really matters to you? Do you understand studying is hard? Today a lot of people get diagnosed with ADHD, which looks sus to me, kinda like a cheap diagnostic. I could be wrong. You can teach a monkey a lot of stuff, and it only depends on the ability of the teachers.
  16. Hello. What are you studying? And how is it exactly that you're failing to study? Going to the doctor won't kill you. And you don't even need to take medications if you don't want, specially with ADHD, it's a questionable strategy every doctor use with a not fully comprehended condition. If you strongly desire to learn, you can do it. Expect to get what you put in.
  17. Suicide is not an individual problem but a collective one. And the best analogy to understand it is to picture a person burning alive, it would be actually very wise to put a bullet in his/her head.
  18. @Rishabh R "Others are artificial and everything else is natural" doesn't make sense at all, or I am not sure what it means... yet if that's your objective then who am I to tell you what to experience. Maybe you could try meditating for 2 hours. I was saying it is probably a reaction of your ego. And since you were so intrigued I answered. Yet thanks for reminding me.
  19. Yes it can be pretty strong and yes it can be psychedelic like. But there are far better choices to explore consciousness and yourself. Don't rely solely on it. I would argue is better to not use weed at all. I've had some insane trips on it. So much fantastic stuff, an other paranoia inducing experiences too, unfortunately. But I've definetely seen geometric patterns and cartonish figures with eyes closed. I am 23, and I did that at your age. If anything I would tell you pursue sobriety as a priority and your pillar. And I strongly suggest pursuing awakening in solitude, with better substances. Ah, and that exact same thing happened to me. Weed started to loose its potency with me to a point where it was mostly numbness (which is the state of 90% weed users). Take care of your fresh neurons.
  20. It is really easy to make it a "they're trying to control us" type of thing.
  21. @Sabth I am sorry to hear that. Try to aply the concept of 100% responsability, as hard as it seems. You may be in the worst situation. and it may haven't been your fault, yet you still need to make the best desitions. Thank me later.
  22. White is the presence of all colors, literally.
