@Goldzilla I typed out a big thing, already sent it and am now editing to hope you see this version first. Pre edit was very sarcastic, sorry for that. I’d just like to ask now. You good? Have any health issues? I’m not even familiar with you.

@dflores321 It was a joke. Jesus, real or not, is generally regarded as having high consciousness. Donald Trump, generally is regarded as having low consciousness. The joke was the if what Goldzilla is saying is true, the hypothetically Donald would’ve died earlier and someone like Jesus or Gandhi or whoever your guru is shall live forever. It was a joke. Doesn’t matter if Jesus is real or not. Edit: well it probably does to the Christians ?

@Goldzilla If health is directly correlated to LOC, Donald Trump would be dead by now and Jesus would have never died. Stop talking out of your ass. You have contradicted yourself numerous times and also have provided 0 evidence for anything you claim. You could seriously mislead someone into thinking they just need to become enlightened and raise their LOC and then they will be healed. If your LOC were as high as you claim it to be there wouldn’t be a difference between being healthy or not. If you’re doing this as a troll, which it seems you are not, but if you are, good one. If you are being serious, which it seems you are, I wish you the best because you may have health problems of your own and that would explain your fixation on this senseless correlation. The last thing I will consider is this as a misunderstanding. Surely, yes, the higher your LOC the more apt you are to manage your health - but there are no guarantees you can fix it all.

@Goldzilla Your arguments are circular and not well thought. People can certainly gauge what you do or do not know. For instance, I play guitar and will know for a fact if you can or can not by watching you playing. Just like people here know whether your words mean something just by reading what you type. Besides how do you know that I do not know what you do or do not know; you’re assuming you know what I can know but I can not know what you know. A clever argument, but a poor one ultimately. You’re talking out of your ass. Absolutely nothing personal about this. A spade is a spade, I love you all the same either way.

@Gabith God is everything and nothing; infinite. So technically God is a man and woman, but to limit God to that is foolish. God is no more a man than it is seafood and no more seafood than it is the sky, etc etc.

@Goldzilla You dunno what God is lmao

@BipolarGrowth If you know it affects your physical health, it’s not too much of a jump to see how it can affect your consciousness.

@Goldzilla You do not know what you’re talking about. Sure, self development, enlightenment, good health, etc. can go hand and hand but not to the level you are saying. If it can it is one of the rarest things known to man. You have no experience with it regardless which is why you continue to push your ‘perspective’ and ‘view’ on it like a devil.

I remember in kindergarten or first grade I grabbed a GI Joe book for the first time and decided to give it a try. As I grabbed it and was walking away, one of my friends began telling me how lame the book was and shaming me a little for choosing it (this is elementary school mind you, no grudge here, I find it hilarious). I put the book back, he picks it up and I realize it was the only one. He checks it out. I got swindled.

I agree with Leo on this one, IQ tests are a one dimensional measurement of intelligence. Nonetheless, he’d probably score at least a 160, if not closer to 200 lol.

The answer is relative to you. What do you think when you imagine your life purpose? Career? To me, it’s the difference between self ignited discipline and freedom, a life purpose, and wage slavery and dependence, a career. A career will get me some security and certainly cash (nothing wrong with that) but leave me dependent and mechanical. A life purpose, done effectively with patience, could hypothetically (because I’m not there yet) provide a comparable amount of cash and security while leaving room for creativity and perhaps more importantly, purpose. The difference between just surviving and truly living. Of course it’s easier to just keep the job I have now.

@BipolarGrowth If your implication is that bestiality is bad, you have missed the point.

@Thought Art I forget who it was, a monk or someone responded with ‘a turd’ after being asked ‘what is enlightenment.’ Something like that idk really. But, yes, a profound shit. Everything is profound I love it - which is why I responded with something so stupid. To appreciate the profoundness of something other than a ‘spiritual teaching.’

I am currently in the midst of a deep, profound, shit.

@Leo Gura I love you because of me. Thank us.

We are in a very similar spot. Stop being lazy. Stop smoking weed for every occasion. Stop worrying about others. Do not stop caring for other. Stop worrying about others. Get off your fucking phone. Buy a timed lock box if you need to (this works for weed as well). No you’re not to young to self actualize, that’s stupid, the younger the better. If you’re thinking about how to do something, you’re not doing it.

Maybe go for more walks.

Ultimately there is no difference between insanity or sanity. But, assuming there is a difference, the difference would be subjective. Maybe Sadghuru thinks he’s insane. As far as ‘waking up’ being the new norm, it pretty much already is. It’s just the pace that can suck. Also, since reality is infinite - there is no end to the awakening. It’s easy to think this world is insanity and waking up is not the norm. It is way more difficult to see this is also the widest the world’s eyes have ever been; wide awake.

@iceprincess Idk why I cared to respond to all of this because I think horoscopes are outright dumb and misleading, and also that it’s not worth it to debate the birth of someone who may or may not have existed - nonetheless, from my experience, most people, including some devote Catholics I know, understand jesus was actually born sometime in the spring. As if there was not enough controversy in religion lol.

The symphony conductor is both feeling and thinking. There are rational, linear aspects to the song such as timing, transitions and other constants, while the dynamics or articulation is more often felt as their plane is not exactly linear. So, yes, you’re on to something and I hope this will all help you visualize a new relationship with systems; they can be felt or rationalized. People more inclined to feel systems may respond more liberally, to reactions and effects within a system, as they come, whereas more logic based thinkers often model solutions to the effects from the system. Feelers are often more flexible to systems but more unorthodox. Thinkers often remain consistent and to the point but may have a harder time managing the more ‘airy fairy if buts or ands’ of the system. So, yes, there’s systems feeling and thinking. Obviously both are important.

If you look around, do you see a lot of ‘hardcore actualizers’ fighting to improve themselves and be the best they can? No. Not many people like that, that I know of at least. So who would teach this?

Each time we create, a new ‘lego block’ forms in our mind. The more you create the more blocks you get to play with. Coming up with 20 poopy riffs on guitar fuels 1/10 of a great riff.

There are infinite meanings to life; including no meaning.

Lex Friedman Podcast https://lexfridman.com/podcast/ Perhaps you have heard of Lex. He is a scientist at MIT and works with AI. He is fairly open minded and notices the importance of Love. He seems rather material but I think you guys could have a great conversation about love, maybe the materialistic paradigm or consciousness. You’d blow his mind on consciousness. Hard to say what value you’d get from any of these interviews/podcasts but if it seems this would be more out of a place of giving, granted they’re wide enough to have you - I think lex may be.

Contemplation and debate are two different things. Arguing with others is the same as arguing with yourself.
