I was asking you because I didnt understand how god would be able to see everything at all times. That would be a certain kind of god. I think God is Qualia. (Qualia is basically experience) Qualia as an all encompassing absolute though.

Didnt you open a topic once where you said that you love math?

There are only so many combinations you can make out of a few ideas. With more existing ideas the possibilities for combining these ideas rises exponentially also. It's like math, there are 6 possibilities to order the numbers 123 and there are 720 possibilities to order the numbers 123456. Of course thats not exactly how it is in the real world but you get the idea. Maybe also some very crucial ideas were invented which allowed for a lot more possibilities. We are also a lot more people on earth and have higher living standards which helps.

Meta problem - Daniel Schmachtenberger I have been listening to Daniel Schmachtenberger lately. A reoccurring theme in his talks is the meta problem: Things which evolutionary win often aren't the things which are good. For example back in the days nature loving hippie communities lost against egoistical brutal kind of communities and so the genes of the egoistical brutal kind of people got through and we are all now fucked up because of that and wish we be and live in a place with nature loving hippies. It also applies to ideas: The idea which is most marketable wins over other ideas which might be better but not as marketable. If one wants to change the system there is no way to get around these machanisms. One needs to embace them. If one wants to change the system he has got to put himself in a strong position in the system so he can use his power to change the system for the better. This case of cars represents that idea actualized really well I think. The producer of the film were in a position of power as they could deliver a piece of entertainment/ art to a very big audience. The cars are cool especially Lightning McQueen. And for the big finale McQueen chooses empathy over winning, stage green over stage orange. I remember what an emotional moment that was for me as a kid and how much it got me thinking. I got so much development out of that.

@Atb210201 @rachMiel What do you think god is?

edit: Oh its from here:

That is possible of course. But his perspective is very understandable. Most people aren't open minded enough for radical spiritual insights. He could have had a few attempts of telling other people about his knowledge and had bad experiences with it. I havent heard of that but it certainly sounds like a weird claim.

What if he really was on a higher level and people really couldn't swallow the truth so he has to tell them white lies and in his loneliness he built a comfortable bubble for himself where he enjoys his own jokes. If he wasn't on a higher level then that behavior would be out of place of course.

+ what Leo said So you talked about wanting to be more sexually open as your gf told you she would be okay with a threesome if it made you happier?

Well if you go back in time with the knowledge you have now you haven't gotten back in time as there is the future mind then in the past body. That could be incredibly weird. Like I am way more mature now then 10 years ago and I think people would notice. But when you look at it less realistically - on the one I pissed away so many good years and I could have had so many great experiences but on the other hand I dont know how I would have turned out without difficulties. It's a mystery at the end of the day.

I get it. I dont know if I would feel very different. It's just that I feel like this is such an ego and illusory thing believing that you own somebody that I think there has to be a valuable spiritual lesson if you deconstruct that - maybe like a harsh 5meo trip.

@Ampresus Oh this is so funny. He just got a week of ptsd, he is fine now and still in love with his girl it's all good. You just have to let it go. Eventually you can get to the level of the guy at 14:04

That triggers two things in me. 1) an absolute terrible feeling like seeing a bunch of carnivores devour a corps of someone you love. That thumbnail captures it perfectly. (thanks nilsi) 2) potentially a very beautiful non egoistical love. Imagine you like to see your girl get gang banged by other people because it makes her happy and she is happy that it makes you happy that it makes her happy. It's a thing.

These are good points. Sacrificing for one person creates a special place. There is definitely a place for that. I dont feel grounded enough for a poly relationship and I crave romance right now. But it's something I wanna try at some point.

It's not like someone invented all these ideas from zero. It started with simple technical ideas which got taught over generations. Bright minds could then invent inventions on top of the existing inventions. Thats how technology slowly progressed. Of course nobody got the idea that by bending metal a certain way you could invent chat gpt that was only possible through the process so far.

If you have any concerns regarding my argumentation please tell them otherwise thanks I guess.

It doesnt really matter how good the partner is is the same pussy after 3 years honestly still exciting? It's just honest. Deceiving someone in this matter isnt actually respectful but morally respectful imo. It's real when people naturally come back to each other even though they have other options. I think if you talk about it in a mature way resentment and hatred can be minimized but I haven't experienced it myself Thats a very good point. Well the point is that "the voices" come from different sources. One is a need/ craving the other one is a fear. The first cant really be overcome with discipline. You cant really discipline yourself to go on a diet for example it usually leads to backlash. On the other hand when you expose yourself to your fear it gets smaller and smaller. Thats the point of exposure therapy for example. I haven't tried them either. But I heard people report that it fullfills them and I am open minded to that so thats why I opened this thread.

Because on the other side you might get something more real. Something that maintains its existence naturally and not through artificial rules. Well the impulses are simply there. We say that repressing the impulses is the most mature thing as it gets the best outcome. But what if not repressing your impulses and dealing with them in a mature way would even get better outcomes?

Interesting. How did the 5-meo-dmt trips improve your practical life? I am wondering because the trips are often metaphysical in nature and therefore not so much directly practical.

Have open relationships vs polyamorous relationships be compared? I think open relationships might be simpler as you just need to emotionally manage one person.

@Adrian colby I love that. I like to freely exchange moments of love with random people which is as free as air. Often it's through eye contact. It's like very consciously watching a great sunset and after the moment is gone you dont hold onto it you just naturally let it be. Not because it wasn't real but because it actually was real you just cant hold onto real love. Well few people get it. I take medication for adhd (inattentive) now and it seems to reduce that free love exchange.

Depends what development means for you and how much you tripped already. Low and Mid doses of Truffles are great for reflecting on your life and goals and for therapy. 5meo might be more for purely spiritual goals but I might be wrong on that as I haven't done it a lot.

11 meters in diameter. meh

You didnt ask me but it's an interesting question to answer. I dont think I could have a completely unsymmetrical polyamorous relationship as thats too much responsibility on my part. Also I dont like the idea of sharing a girl with another dude. I could imagine a polyamorous relationship with a bi girl who has another girl though.

Indeed. Just know that you risk destroying your current relationship if it doesnt work out.
