  1. A single world like imaginary can't explain such complex mechanisms, especially without Spiritual experiences.
  2. I don't demonise psychedelics nor any particular beliefs, in the same way I don't demonise medications. Medications are for those who suffer a lot. But for those who are simply curious, are they really necessary? Many even ignore tools like meditation and mindfulness and even being a heartful person entirely, because they achieve what they want in a short time, unaware of the long term benefits such tools create. It just becomes another desire which receives instant gratification. Sure, it may have many positive benefits, and help those especially who are suffering become peaceful or come in terms with life or give a new worldview, and might even become as a type of medication to cure mental illnesses, but if you have a lot of time in your hand and a curious mind, which one is the better choice? If you wish to dedicate your entire life for spiritual knowledge, there is no wrong in trying out all the things out there. But, are you sure you are ready for that? I have seen many people( not specifically here) on a mission to enlighten everyone on the world. Do you think God is that impatient? Just a few billion years have passed and people want to help everyone to realise what they are. Don't you think the experience of the journey also matters as much as the final experience itself? Still, many people haven't found peace with what they have found as the final experience as well. That's one of the side effects. If you are not prepared, you might really even go insane.
  3. Atleast we have something called democracy now. Kings don't even have to listen to people in the earlier days. Here are some statistics to help you understand how humanity has improvised: https://www.vox.com/the-big-idea/2016/12/23/14062168/history-global-conditions-charts-life-span-poverty Even clean energy sources are steadily getting increased Human leaders have to transcend ego one at a time, first coming out of their own ego, then coming out of the Nationalist ego, then coming out of human beings as a whole ego, and then treating the whole earth as a single ego. Spirituality plays a vital role in that, so that people learn it sooner than later.
  4. Being honest or truthful is not even important if you aren't hurting others in that process, although it will help in your Spiritual journey.
  5. What about people who spend almost whole of their life meditating and take shit load of psychedelics and still haven't achieved what you are talking about?
  6. Our mind is our world, not the projections created by others.
  7. And so are medications. And you can't depend on them for long, especially if you can cure the disease by changing the diet.
  8. It can, but I believe that psychedelics work like medication or supplement, whereas meditation and consciously changing habits in our everyday life work like changing your diet or adding healthier foods to the diet.
  9. Can any of the character's action be purely selfless?
  10. Okay. I thought it was funny. By funny, I mean on a lighter note, not something that evokes laughter.
  11. But if you want a serious explanation, here it is: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4951165/#:~:text=Physics sheds light on the,provide greater access for movement.
  12. It was just a funny interpretation, not a serious one.
  13. List all the things that you think you want and answer the questions: 1. Is it within your reach or do you have limited probability of attaining it? 2. Is it a materialistic want (big car, house, luxury items) or experential want(travelling, better lifestyle,etc.)? If your answer is within your reach and experential, you don't have to give up your desires or wants. If not, here are some insights that can help you move over those desires: 1. What you think your happiness levels will become after you achieve something will not be the actual happiness you get when you achieve it and it fades away sooner than you think. 2. No matter what you do in life, you will always be undergoing a cycle of happiness and suffering. The levels may change but over a long period, it becomes balanced. So, instead of chasing happiness, it's better to chase peace. 3. How selfish are those wants for you? Does it impact only you or anybody else or many people? Or do you do it out of your desire to help?Rate it on a scale of 1 to 10. You can pursue the ones which are closer to being selfless, and leave the rest. Such wants will give you happiness even if you don't succeed entirely. And the universe will allow you to succeed in them. 4. Focus more on experiences if you are chasing happiness. Choose the path which you are the most passionate about to reach your wants.
  14. Looks like I am weak in science, can't understand it easily, especially the word school camp.
  15. Ha ha! Also, I find many people eager to use quantum mechanics priciples to explain human behaviour! On a honest note, I was talking about the point that physics is the fundamental of biology, hence anything explained using biology also means it is explained using physics.
  16. The intelligence is not in how the world is evolving, but how we are made to believe that everything is accidental and God doesn't care about suffering and it's very good if there was no suffering. I too can't stop believing some of it.
  17. Use ai tools to summarise the content.
  18. Sorry, I have forgotten the letters as well.
  19. I myself am not an avid believer or practioner of religious practices concerning Hinduism, but still I am considered no different or divided from a Hindu who worships rigorously or follows all religious practices. Hinduism was never a religion for long periods of time, it was simply different people having different philosophical ideas about what is good, what is bad and what I am, what is God etc. That's why we are unable to find any humans represented or claimed as founders of the religion and there are many religions that originated and accepted within India. People were open to all kinds of ideas, that's why there are so many ideologies represented as part of the same religion. And that is what I believe is the driver for spiritual wealth. Also, materialistic welfare was not considered very important. Knowledge and philosophy was given more importance. Kings rewarding spiritual poets with huge loads of money is a good example for that. But as time passed by, the concepts of idols took popularity among its followers, and humans took advantage of the faith people had in their religion. Caste systems were created and many superstitious practices became regular among followers. People found solace in devotion and rules as the main force of spirituality rather than enquiry. People started fighting over whose god is bigger (within Hinduism) rather than the hidden spiritual meanings behind creation of such idols. They became more materialistic just like the rest of the world. Still, most of the traditional ideas and practices are recorded and maintained ( but modified over the passage of time) and some even followed by a smaller section of people and that serves as food for the curious minds. Since Tamilnadu is geographically far away from the center or rest of India, it has entirely different set of religious practices, culture and even idols. Still, caste system exist here. Amman, a woman form of God, is widely worshipped here. Shiva is predominantly worshipped here. His son Murugan, is called a Tamil God and very popular. Tamilnadu has the most temples in India comparing with its population and the architecture is entirely different from northern India, called popularly as Dravidian architecture. Kings here were more open to other religions compared to rest of India, and traditions and architecture were preserved because of a historically stronger kingdom. That's why you will be able to find huge and ancient temples all over Tamilnadu. When it comes to Spirituality, northern people find southerners to be simple. ( But still money minded. They save a lot). People here love the language more than their religion.( Ask them about their language, and they will tell it's the world's oldest?) You will be able to find a lot of religious and spiritual texts in ancient Tamil, well preserved. There are relatively less religious violence and hatred compared to rest of India because of this unity in language and some other factors. In fact, the current ruling party, which is a Hindu nationalist party, has never set its foot in this state, although the state predominantly consists of Hindus
  20. I even talked to them personally once over phone, they sounded like they don't care about money and only service. That they would receive money only when they are satisfied. I still had doubts about their way of functioning, so I didn't approach them. I think scammers easily can get all the personal data from dark internet using fingerprints. So, this might just be an elaborate scam. But I didn't investigate it further. If you wish to see it for yourself, you can get contact details of lot of such services online, and try it out yourself. But I don't know which is more trustable and which is not.
