Nobody profits/gains from having a story being admired changing or not changing -

Because the ego always wants to profit. -
Nonduality is like Rupert Spira being aware of awareness, consciousness being aware of itself, look at me i‘m Rupert Spira i wear glasses 🤓 and have a British accent i‘m so woke. Here is what you can do to become more aware Radical Nonduality is like Tony Parsons and Andreas Müller, there is nobody, bo meaning, nothingness being everything. Look at me i‘m nothing 😎 there is nobody who can do anything. Alright thanks guys and glad we talked about it.

For example Leo He is very intelligent i’d say. certainly more intelligent than me. His intellect helps him in many ways on the "path". But because he enjoys his intellect it’s harder for him to let go of the path maybe. Altough it’s unknowable. There’s no answer. -
I don’t know many religious people to be honest.

I feel like very intelligent people they enjoy thinking and also their ego can be tied to their intelligence. Which could potentially be a hindrance. -

I mean it’s fine you love Putin you don’t care when he bombs muslims like in Chechnya. Grozny was looking like Gaza back then. But he’s a great guy and he will defeat the West and that’s why you adore him. It’s cool. He’s your great hope so to speak. Like Trump was for Maga. Putin is haram and you know it. -

You’re just mad that you got kicked out of the west no? It’s like a guy trying to hit on a girl, she says no interest and the guy is like you are ugly anyway i never wanted you. -

Then why is Spain and Ireland and Norway etc. are going against the US abd Israel on Gaza? Why were many western countries against the Iraq invasion? Why is Francesca Albanese accusing Israel etc. anywho i’m not even interested in your answer it’s silly. Toodeloo -

You also don’t have free will not to do it. Ok i asked chat gpt Science has no unified answer to the question of free will, but researchers across neuroscience, psychology, and physics have explored it deeply — and the results challenge traditional ideas of what free will might be. 🔬 Neuroscience: The Brain Acts Before You Know It One of the most famous studies comes from Benjamin Libet in the 1980s: Libet found that brain activity (a “readiness potential”) precedes a person’s conscious decision to move by about 300–500 milliseconds. That suggests: your brain starts preparing actions before you’re aware of deciding. Many later studies have supported and extended this — for example, researchers can now predict a person’s decisions several seconds before they report deciding. 🧠 Implication: Free will might be an illusion — we may be rationalizing choices after our brain already made them. 🧠 Psychology: Bias, Conditioning, and Lack of Control Psychological studies show: Much of our behavior is influenced by unconscious biases, habits, priming, or external cues. We often confabulate reasons for actions we didn’t consciously choose (like in split-brain patients). 📌 Implication: Human decisions are heavily shaped by factors outside our awareness, making true “freedom” of will questionable. ⚛️ Physics: Determinism vs Indeterminism Classical Physics (Newtonian): The universe is deterministic — every action is the result of previous causes. If this were fully true, free will wouldn’t exist, because all choices would be pre-determined. Quantum Mechanics: Introduces randomness and probabilistic events at the smallest scale. But randomness ≠ free will — a random choice isn’t a willed choice. 🔍 Implication: Physics hasn’t rescued free will — either everything is determined, or it’s random, but neither gives us the “freedom” we feel. 🧩 So… Is Free Will an Illusion? Many scientists lean toward compatibilism — the idea that: Even if determinism is true, we can still define free will as the ability to act according to our goals, desires, and reasoning — without coercion. In this view, free will = internal decision-making, not metaphysical independence from causality. 🔄 Others, like Sam Harris, argue that free will is completely illusory — and that recognizing this increases empathy and reduces blame. ✅ Summary Table: Field Key Insight Impact on Free Will Neuroscience Brain acts before conscious awareness Undermines the idea of conscious control Psychology Behavior shaped by hidden influences Suggests our choices aren’t fully “ours” Physics Determinism or randomness dominate No space for traditional free will Philosophy Compatibilism is still widely defended Redefines free will as rational autonomy 🔎 Final Thought: Science doesn’t prove that free will exists — but it shows that our decisions are deeply influenced by unconscious processes, biology, and environment. Whether or not you call that “free will” is partly a philosophical choice. Would you like to explore how this affects morality, responsibility, or criminal justice? Those are major areas where this debate becomes very real. -

You could make that thread. -

It’s a resonance not a concept or idea for me. And even science doubts free will no? -

This Candace thing is mostly about Ghislaine Maxwells father but somebody needs to fact check her, this story is crazy and Candace isn’t the most trustworthy Anywho would make for an amazing movie story this Robert Maxwell.
