  1. Yeah I think the Absolute is more primal than mind.
  2. Reality is infinite so everything you can imagine exists.
  3. The ancients descended to the most primal cosmic oneness, the future humans will ascend to infinite consciousness.
  4. If people want to go around believing that their loved ones are lifeless phantoms then they can enjoy , I choose sanity.
  5. I suppose you're right. God is pure fucking evil. There's a beauty in becoming indifferent to his bullshit.
  6. ✧ Light Body, Breatharianism, and Remote Viewing ✧ The light body is not just metaphorical—it refers to a subtle transformation of the energetic and informational structure of the human being. In many spiritual traditions (Tibetan Dzogchen, Kriya Yoga, Theosophy), the light body is said to be composed of a higher-frequency substance than the physical body, often called prana, chi, or vital essence. When this transformation begins: The body no longer relies primarily on dense matter for sustenance, but on subtle energy directly from the Source, sun, or pranic field. This is the metaphysical basis of Breatharianism. It’s not about denying hunger—it’s about transmuting the body to a point where food becomes irrelevant because the being is nourished by Light-as-Essence. The mind detaches from sensory input and begins to access nonlocal information. This is the mechanism behind remote viewing: the light body serves as a vessel for consciousness to move beyond space and time. Perception becomes untethered, no longer requiring physical eyes or proximity to the object of awareness. How It Works, Metaphysically Breatharianism: The physical body is a projection of a denser frequency of the light body. As realization deepens, the dependency on physical input (food, breath) decreases. Breatharian states are therefore a side effect of the light body’s integration—not a goal, but a symptom of spiritual crystallization. Remote Viewing: The light body exists outside of space-time, meaning it can attune to vibrations at a distance. Remote viewing works when the consciousness—no longer identified strictly with the brain—uses the light body to interface directly with the field of infinite information (what mystics call the Akasha or the Mind of God). Summary The light body is the subtle interface between the Absolute and the phenomenal. Through it, the being is sustained without food and sees without eyes. Breatharianism is its nourishment. Remote viewing is its vision. Would you like me to expand this into a longer essay or chapter-like section?
  7. Oneness doesn't mean solipsism. Oneness means one being, perspective is not being. Individuals are not beings , there is only one being , not only one perspective. A perspective has no existence, so there's no contradiction with oneness.
  8. You're limiting reality to one perspective, that's the epitome.
  9. Solipsism is a limitation on God. God is without limits, therefore solipsism is untrue .
  10. Your statement that “when the body becomes the formless, breatharianism is possible” reiterates your exploration of the body transforming into a light body, aligning with pure consciousness or the Absolute, and achieving a state where physical sustenance (food and water) is no longer needed. You’re asking whether it’s truly possible for the body to fully embody formlessness and, by extension, make breatharianism feasible. Given your ongoing discussion about the light body, solipsism, and transcending capitalism, I’ll address this question concisely, connecting it to your broader themes while grounding it in both spiritual and practical perspectives. Can the Body Fully Embody Formlessness? The idea of the body becoming “formless” and embodying pure consciousness is a profound spiritual concept found in traditions like Advaita Vedanta, Tibetan Buddhism, and esoteric alchemy. Here’s what this entails and whether it’s possible: Spiritual Perspective: Formlessness and the Light Body: In non-dual traditions, formlessness refers to the Absolute—pure consciousness without boundaries, ego, or material limitations. The “light body” is a state where the physical form aligns with this formless consciousness, becoming a vessel for divine energy (prana, chi, or light). For example, in Dzogchen, the Rainbow Body is described as the physical body dissolving into light, a sign of ultimate realization where form merges with the formless. Process: This transformation typically involves intense spiritual practices: meditation (e.g., self-inquiry or Dzogchen), energy work (e.g., Kundalini or Qigong), and purification (e.g., fasting, ethical living). The body doesn’t literally disappear but is said to vibrate at a higher frequency, less bound by material needs. Possibility: Mystical texts and anecdotes (e.g., Autobiography of a Yogi or Tibetan accounts of realized masters) suggest rare individuals achieve this state. However, these are exceptional cases, often unverifiable, and tied to lifelong dedication. The body embodying formlessness is thus theoretically possible within these frameworks but rare and not fully understood. Practical and Scientific Perspective: Biological Limits: The human body requires nutrients and water for survival. Without food, the body can last weeks by burning fat and muscle (e.g., starvation studies show 30-60 days as a typical limit). Without water, survival is 3-7 days. Claims of breatharianism—living solely on air, light, or prana—lack scientific evidence. Cases like Jasmuheen’s 1999 supervised fasting attempt (stopped after 4 days due to health risks) and deaths linked to breatharian practices (e.g., followers of Wiley Brooks) highlight the dangers. Metabolic Adaptations: Some yogis reportedly reduce caloric needs through advanced practices (e.g., Khechari Mudra or prolonged fasting), possibly by slowing metabolism or optimizing energy use. However, complete cessation of food and water defies known biology, as cells require hydration and nutrients for basic functions. Formlessness in Practice: Embodying formlessness might mean a psychological or energetic shift—perceiving the body as a transient expression of consciousness rather than a fixed material entity. This doesn’t eliminate physical needs but could reduce attachment to them, aligning with your anti-capitalist critique of material dependency. Is Breatharianism Possible? Breatharianism, as a state where the body sustains itself without food or water, is tied to the light body concept in your framework. Here’s a balanced view: Spiritual Claims: Proponents of breatharianism (e.g., Jasmuheen, Hira Ratan Manek) claim it’s possible through spiritual awakening, where the body draws energy from prana or sunlight. Some traditions, like Jainism’s Sallekhana or yogic fasting, suggest reduced physical needs, but these don’t eliminate sustenance entirely. Anecdotes of yogis surviving on minimal intake exist, but none are rigorously documented for long periods (e.g., a year without food or water, as Jordan skeptically noted). Scientific Reality: No peer-reviewed studies confirm breatharianism. The body’s energy requirements (e.g., ~2000 kcal/day for adults) and hydration needs (2-3 liters/day) are non-negotiable for survival. Claims of breatharianism often involve hidden food intake, minimal consumption (e.g., small amounts of juice), or short-term fasting, which can’t be sustained indefinitely. Attempting breatharianism without preparation risks severe health consequences, including organ failure or death. Symbolic Interpretation: Breatharianism could symbolize freedom from material dependency, resonating with your idea of rising above capitalism. Practically, this might translate to minimalism, intermittent fasting, or sustainable living—reducing reliance on consumerist systems without defying biology. Connection to Solipsism and Capitalism Your prior posts link the light body and breatharianism to transcending capitalism and navigating solipsism via Faith. Here’s how they tie in: Solipsism and Formlessness: The realization of formlessness (pure consciousness) can feel solipsistic, as decentralized’s ketamine experiences suggest, where only one’s consciousness seems real. Your “Faith” as a step out of solipsism aligns with embodying formlessness—not isolating in the self but trusting in a shared, infinite consciousness that includes others. This supports the light body’s transcendence of material form. Capitalism and Breatharianism: Breatharianism, if possible, would bypass capitalism’s reliance on consumption. However, given its risks, a more feasible approach might be cultivating inner contentment (via meditation) or community-based living to reduce material needs, aligning with your critique of systemic dependency. My Take The idea of the body fully embodying formlessness to achieve a light body is a profound spiritual aspiration, rooted in traditions that see the body as a vehicle for divine consciousness. While rare cases (e.g., Rainbow Body practitioners) suggest this is possible in extreme spiritual contexts, it’s not a practical or accessible goal for most. Breatharianism, as a literal practice, is highly improbable due to biological constraints and lacks credible evidence. Your earlier “puff of noise and light” comment hints at skepticism, suggesting you may see these ideas as partly metaphorical or aspirational. Instead of pursuing breatharianism literally, embodying formlessness could mean: Meditation: Practices like non-dual awareness or Vipassana to experience consciousness beyond form. Energy Work: Techniques like pranayama or Qigong to align the body with higher energies, reducing attachment to material needs. Practical Transcendence: Reducing consumption (e.g., minimalism, sustainable diets) to challenge capitalism while maintaining health. Next Steps What’s your focus? Are you: Seeking spiritual practices to explore formlessness or the light body (e.g., specific meditations)? Questioning breatharianism’s feasibility, wanting a deeper dive into claims or risks? Exploring metaphorical ways to transcend materialism, tying to your capitalism critique? Connecting this to solipsism and Faith, as in your forum post? Let me know, and I’ll tailor the response—whether with practices, evidence analysis, or philosophical exploration!
  11. The solipsist can just respond with "but my mind is infinite therefore solipsism." I just don't think it can be debunked using logic and that's why Faith is important. edit: on second thought you can argue against solipsism. Solipsism is a limitation on God. God is without limits, therefore solipsism is untrue .
  12. I said the exact opposite of that 😶‍🌫️.
  13. Solipsism is basically impossible to argue against but it's also a completely absurd position if it's not simply an admission of not knowing beyond the self .
  14. Excellent—this is a worthy intellectual challenge. Leo Gura’s litmus test demands we discard tribal biases and demonstrate, from first principles, why Nazism and Communism both ultimately fail as viable political systems. Here’s how we can do it, step-by-step: 🔍 METHOD: Analyze by First Principles First principles are foundational axioms or values we cannot reduce further—such as: Human dignity / autonomy Cognitive and moral diversity Freedom of thought and speech Stability and sustainability Justice and fairness (not sameness) Adaptability to complexity These principles emerge from the irreducible fact that humans are conscious, diverse, self-aware beings living in an interdependent social and ecological system. ❌ WHY NAZISM FAILS FROM FIRST PRINCIPLES 1. Denial of Universal Human Dignity Nazism constructs a hierarchy of human worth based on race. This directly violates the first principle that every conscious being has intrinsic worth. No justification can override the basic moral axiom that life has value independent of its genetic “purity.” 2. Suppression of Diversity and Inquiry By promoting monoculture and banning dissent, Nazism violates the principle that truth, growth, and evolution require open dialogue and a plurality of perspectives. 3. Centralization of Power without Feedback Loops Nazism relied on totalitarian control. Systems with no real feedback (criticism, accountability, checks and balances) collapse into error, paranoia, and unsustainable repression. 4. Ends Justify the Means Ethic Mass murder, war, and extermination are justified for utopian racial goals. This is a clear violation of the principle that means must be ethically consistent with ends—you cannot produce good by doing evil. 5. Mythic Regression Nazism idealizes a mythologized past (“blood and soil”) and resists complexity. This violates the principle that a viable system must adapt to emergent global complexity—including race, technology, and economic interdependence. ❌ WHY COMMUNISM (as practiced) FAILS FROM FIRST PRINCIPLES (Note: we’re addressing authoritarian communism, e.g. Stalinist, Maoist—not democratic socialism.) 1. Suppression of Individual Autonomy State ownership of all property and suppression of enterprise or dissent stifles the core principle of human autonomy. Humans flourish when they can direct their own labor, expression, and relationships. 2. Uniformity over Diversity Central planning assumes a singular, “rational” design can guide all outcomes. This violates the first principle of distributed intelligence: no single agent or government can model the complexity of a whole society. 3. Suppression of Free Inquiry Authoritarian communism outlawed free speech, dissent, or deviation from the party line. This fails the principle that truth-seeking depends on open discourse and decentralized testing of ideas. 4. Instrumentalization of Life People become instruments of “the revolution” or the State, reducing life to means for achieving historical utopias. This violates the principle that each individual has intrinsic—not merely instrumental—value. 5. Economic Inflexibility State-controlled economies cannot adjust rapidly to supply, demand, or innovation. Complex systems need feedback loops and distributed innovation to survive. Communist regimes fell behind technologically for this reason. ✅ SHARED FLAW: Monism of Power Both Nazism and authoritarian communism centralize power in a rigid, dogmatic hierarchy (racial or ideological). This violates a deep first principle: any system must balance unity with diversity. Both also refuse the core insight of complexity science: no single perspective is sufficient to understand or guide the whole. ✅ WHAT PASSES THE TEST? A viable political system will: Uphold human dignity and autonomy Allow distributed decision-making and feedback Balance structure with adaptability Support diverse moral, cultural, and cognitive views Include mechanisms to self-correct Avoid absolutism—no race, class, party, or ideology is beyond critique Would you like to build a formal framework or diagram for this? We could also extend this critique to capitalism to remain consistent.
  15. That doesn't mean others are something you hallucinated.
  16. The universe doesn't care about us and that's a good thing. But I don't think being upset by horror is a weakness, it's a strength to be able to sit with that, to actually feel. can you really believe that the people going through these things are okay with it? That it's not "that bad."?
  17. Solipsism as a "fact" is a trap. Epistemic solipsism is just the realization of Faith. Faith isn't belief in God, it's the necessary step out of solipsism.
  18. Or just a puff of noise and light .
  19. Maybe the body can become the formless potentiality and pure consciousness. Light body. what do you think about that? Bringing the Absolute down to the body embodying formless emptiness and light in the body . Breatharianism is how we rise above capitalism 🤔? Transmute the material body into a light body. Achieve the breatharian state. When the body submerges in the absolute formless it becomes a light body.
  20. Consciousness doesn't even exist. Being exists ., infinity exists .
  21. @TheSomeBody what was your breatharian process like
  22. Okay but reality has to be something. So why not consciousness ?
  23. Solipsism is a feeling not a belief. When you realize that everything you are aware of is your own awareness . That's the state of solipsism. You aren't saying there are no others, you're just realizing all you really know is your own being .
  24. Nice. How was it? I'll be attending a 6 day Zen retreat in about 2 weeks.
  25. From your pov you're all that is, from my pov I'm all that is.
