Well I hope it's not some freaking romantic/sexual bullshit

I hope that's just a analogy. It's not even a good analogy imo. Consciousness is that which is conscious of "pure light".

Yes when you die you get born, obviously. But I'm not sure about the rest of your post.

Yes consciousness is attributeless, obviously. A.k.a. nothingness. (But not literal nothing.)

Wishful thinking. You're not thinking clearly in this matter. You're emotionally dogmatic and irrational with that position. I mean come on. "Suicide is always a dumb decision. Never be suicidal." That's like those fanatic anti-abortion people who go crazy only because their fucking emotions go bananas.

Nice. Me too. High five. People often don't understand how pathetic some people can be.

Life is a curse.

It depends. If you for example have parents who love you, you will completely destroy their lives for the rest of their lives.

@BornToBoil 2 things can potentially be wrong with suicide: That you hurt people who know you. And the possibility that life can get better, but that doesn't apply to everyone. Some souls are obnoxious and aren't loved by anyone. In my opinion people got it backwards. When a birth happens there should be mourning and when death happens there should be joy.

I have tried therapy a bit and stuff. Maybe life isn't a struggle for some people, but it is for me. I can't see how I could make my life into a miracle.

Nothing is worse than being completely alone and unlikable. My loneliness is driving me crazy.

Seems like that is what Leo is saying. Personally I think others are experiencing too. If they wouldn't, then you could torture other beings and they wouldn't feel anything. No one would do that, except people who completely lack empathy. No way.

@Leo Gura So are other beings conscious?

It's true that everything is happening in my consciousness. But I can't see how that's evidence that what you said is true. There could be others, etc. It's just impossible to know for sure. Leo saying that psychedelics is required is also just imagination (I'm offering "people" a alternative to psychedelics.) How is God Love? I can't see it. The only way I can conceive of Love is the creation of duality. Because for me, being in the total solipsism hole is hell, so duality is paradise compared to it. But I see the creation of duality as a necessity, so calling it Love is a bit too nice, imo. But okay, I guess you could be right. I'm currently not in a great state of mind.. so my entire post could be bs.

I hate life so so so much. Now would be a good time to kill myself... but I'm not going to do it. God really created the ultimate prison. I don't know what his problem is, but he created one heck of a prison, good job. Apparently his favorite hobby is to torture souls. (I don't really believe in a theistic/classical conception of God.)

No I don't.

I don't know. Which proves my point.

Can everyone just stop thinking that they know. No one knows.

I'm ready for death too, but not because of enlightenment stuff. The problem is that the body insists on surviving, even if you rationally know that suicide is the right thing to do. So life is a prison of suffering, and you don't even know how you got there. Life is so bizarre.

Because he claims he can do lots of stuff which would be easy to prove. Yet he doesn't prove. And he also claims lots of other ridiculous stuff. And people pay him. Try to use your own intelligence.. There's sooo much bullshit, delusion and fraud in the world. Set your aim on truth, not wishful thinking or insanity. Basically, words mean nothing. Don't trust just words. And also, even if something sounds logical, it doesn't mean it's true. You need some kind of evidence.

I think he's a fraud.

I'm currently reading the book "Quantum Enigma: Physics Encounters Consciousness. 2nd Edition". It's quite good, but it contains lots of complicated technical stuff which only a genius in quantum mechanics can understand. From it I found this quote from Albert Einstein: “It is basic for physics that one assumes a real world existing independently from any act of perception - but this we do not know." https://www.newscientist.com/article/mg23631510-200-consciously-quantum-how-you-make-everything-real/ But the thing which scientists don't agree about is: what counts as observation? According to many scientists observation isn't the same thing as consciousness. But to me it seems difficult to remove consciousness from observation..

That there wouldn't be any problems without consciousness.

I said it because of this thread and other threads recently. When you get older you will realize that you don't want to live forever. You will also realize that our bodies will die.

Jesus Christ.. This forum has detoriated.. @Igor82 How old are you?
