I thought he was actually mad in the end. I didn't expect him to do that. He ruined it when he said it's a performance. But his cry is genuine and infectious.

I sometimes feel afraid that I wouldn't be able to get deep enough in time before I lose my ability to think well.

@Leo Gura, do you think that there is an age limit to do epistemology and metaphysics?

What a profound episode! I understand that an object can be described with its property, but I haven't thought about infinity that way. If I find that one part of reality is infinite, then reality must be infinite; otherwise, reality wouldn't be infinite. That was brilliant. It wasn't obvious to me. Although I have been conscious of the infinite resolution of space, and I don't understand how scientists could believe in the idea of a fundamental particle.

The whole thing is cringe.

@Leo Gura, why does God want to be corrupt by lowering its consciousness?

@Jannes, I just don't understand how we can accept that we are built on corruption and then demonize other forms of corruption if we aim for purity. What is the purpose of life if it entails corruption? Why am I born to be corrupt?

@Leo Gura, reading your latest blog post, I sense that you are saying that to be human is corruption itself.

I used to believe in God, and I prayed and attended the ceremonies at church when I was a kid. As I grew older, I started deconstructing Christianity. I thought if I'm going to use words that describe the whole reality, then why should I believe in that? Why not experience it if it is meant to be a direct thing? My experience is already present, so why should I consider it as something unattainable and beyond my reach and still believe in it? Why should I cherish any belief? Etc... Now, I don't believe in God, which I say straight to others' faces when I'm asked; otherwise, I laugh at their humble arrogance.

How do you use AIs when you want to think, contemplate, or understand something? Have you found limits for AI for those activities? If you don't mind, could you share those limits? Or maybe share your thoughts about what the AI is actually capable of doing compared to non-AI methods. What is a good way and bad way of using AIs, in your opinion, for those activities?

The interview starts at 08:50.

She can say the most profound thing in the world, but that does not mean you must conclude that she knows what she is actually saying before examining her mental process. Providing long, sophisticated answers does not make you authentic, let alone truthful by default, especially when you do not focus on revealing a bit about how you came up with those answers.

If you want to aim for high accuracy, do volumetric dosing.

Precision scale (0.001-100g) Milligram Scale 10 mg Micro Scoops (100 scoops) I only have searched the tools. I think the ones above are used mostly.

I guess he is coming out of the closet. 😁

I could have other experiences but that does not mean that those experiences exist when I am not experiencing them. Those non-existent experiences exist as mental representations in my experience at this moment. They might or might not be possible. You do not know. It is just a possibility, even if it makes so much sense. If you experience them, then they would exist at that moment. ---------- Let's say that a person took a picture of the Eiffel Tower and sent it to you. The possibility of the tower existing depends on the medium itself. Even if the picture is or seems to be exact and realistic, it does not mean that the tower actually exists at the moment when you look at the picture. However, it means that if you go to the nearby spot in Paris where the photo was taken, the tower could exist at that moment unless it has been removed before your visit. ---------- Q. Is your experience a possibility? A. No, of course. It is happening. Experiences that are not happening at this moment are a possibility.

It means that it does not exist in my experience, as in I cannot experience the controlling part of an object the way levitation is thought of. Let's say someone levitates an object in front of me. Still, I would not experience the controlling part for the same reason I do not experience others' experiences, because those experiences do not happen for me. Only the experience that I am conscious of is happening.

@Someone here, he has changed his attitude since then. However, I see it the following way: if a thing is true, then it's true whether or not he is angry, even if I don't like the attitude. I don't know, he might have said some untruthful things along the way, but as long as he reevaluates for the sake of truth, understanding and open-mindedness, then it's good for me. And it is not like I know the truth about everything. I would like to think that I have uncovered far fewer truths than him. Also, consider that he might be the only one who truly understands awakening. I don't know. I focus more on his epistemology content. I learn from him and test against him. Lol. However, I view his awakening content as a possibility that might be true or false, at least for me, because he will never be able to change my state of consciousness. There is a tool for that. 😉

It is an ability that I do not possess. You are like asking, "Why are you not doing something that you cannot do?" Maybe, if you hit my head hard enough, I could possess it. Who knows?

There is no exterior, as in you are not conscious of that exterior experience now. You could say that the exterior is a memory of an interior that you experienced. However, the exterior becomes interior when you experience it, which was the thing that your memory pointed to. There is more stuff than I could think of that I am not in control of in my experience. Also, why would I be able to levitate my phone?

There is only the experience that I am conscious of right now. I'm not conscious of any other experience at this moment. E.g., if I go home from the office, I will have the experience of my home and not the office. However, it does not mean that I did not have the experience of the office. If I go back to office, I will experience the office again.

@Breakingthewall, do you experience another experience that you aren't conscious of? Of course not. Because if you did, you would be conscious of it.

I know the following: I will never be conscious of an experience that is not my experience. If I become aware of a new experience, it becomes mine. Literally, nothing exists outside my experience, as I am not conscious of any other experience apart from mine right now, which is not to imply that my experience is not changing.

Gaining happiness by subscribing to a religion at what cost. Although the decision is very easy for simple-minded people. If you are aware of and observe your epistemology, then religion will be too limiting.

What's good about its essence if its impact makes people closed-minded, biased, and clueless about direct experience?
