Lol.

The only thing I got from this thread is that you bought Leo's booklist.

When in fact it refers to an unreal subject.

God/Good?

I don't know. I don't have the booklist, and I rarely if ever read books to begin with. But your question assumes that someone out there could possibly have the one true knowledge, and that you should learn it from them, given the fact that they want or even could teach it to you. I would start by questioning those assumptions first.

Epistemology is a manifestation of the seeker's mindset.

Of course, just make sure there's enough fresh air in your room. I personally prefer outside in nature. There's also the Wim Hof method, it can be as powerful. Good luck.

Humans are crazy. There are absolutely no rules for how they think, behave, or react in any given situation at any given time. Many highly conscious people were killed by their peers precisely because they were more conscious than their peers.

All paths lead to God. Try various methods and practices, and see which ones work best for you.

It removes delusions, at the very least.

Learn how to lie; as in if an actor realized he's just an actor in a play, and then played his role along accordingly.

B-but, solipsism.

My view is my view; none of your business. I mean it.

You're right. We're not experts in economics and we don't run capitals or countries, so the debt discussion is probably a distraction in comparison to how money works, and the latter would probably benefit us more.

Of course. However, I don't know a lot about economics. I was mostly parroting something I heard this guy saying. https://youtube.com/channel/UC4kRorAXuIkyIX6vwXKaLWg

There is no shortage of capitals who want to lend the USA. In fact, things are very competitive in this regard. Because the $ is the main currency (stable and reliable).

Realizing how addiction is nothing but a way to escape an imaginary pain by seeking imaginary pleasures, and then deciding to face the pain head-on and letting go of old imagination.

Not that I like or even agree with Spiral Dynamics, but I do wonder if there's a specific stage for people who take everything literally and miss the point of the communication. I've seen that in various stages, so I'm not sure if it's related in any way to a particular way of viewing the world.

Courses are a rabbit hole. They're not the way to go. What a course basically is, is a human trying to make money out of you (or YouTube, etc...) by over-complicating simple stuff to make it seem worth your while, when in fact it isn't. Don't let the theory fool you. The only real way to learn is through practice.

Apparently, mission failed.

Trying to wake yourself up in a poetic way.

You probably just need to detox and keep trying. Don't be too hard on yourself. Give your body some rest from stimulants every once in a while.

I used to want to know, too. Luckily, not so much anymore.

Lol, where did you learn that story? Sounds too good to be true. From what I have learned, religion actually started with the blood, sweat, and tears of the founders clashing with their people every time. The mystic tells his people that they are deluded, and they try to shut him down until he's either killed or otherwise prevailed against them. Faith was just another word for open-mindedness. It basically means that I understand how what I'm saying sounds way too far fetched, so if you can't currently believe me, then at least try to have an open mind that it might be true. That's because prophets were accused of being crazy, possessed, mentally ill, evil, etc...
