  1. Anyone that uses the word non-existence, I can't take serious
  2. ? Started ignoring your posts a long time ago, but now I will take you more serious, Sir Thought you were a lunatic having a mid-life crisis
  3. @Joel3102 no, you understood it correctly YOU ARE THE ONLY THING THAT EXISTS You are on this forum since 2016, how is this breaking news to you?
  4. @Tim R I think the difference is that leo is basically making a blockbuster out of these topics, which is riling up immature egos No offense, but there is a reason that video and this thread is attracting these types of people
  5. This video of a monk kind of puzzled me. At around 2:50 he says that he has been a buddhist monk for about 17 years and then at 8:20 he further says that his goal is to reach enlightenment. He surely gained a good amount of wisdom but still has no idea what enlightenment is after 17 years, which proves your point Enlightenment is not about transcending greed or ending suffering, as he says. That's just a desirable side effect. Also greed is not bad if you take it into the existential. Freeing the mind of all delusion, as he further said, is the more correct encapsulation of what enlightenment is about It's realising that >you< are the Buddha Would saying "I am Buddha" in a buddhist temple be as offensive as saying "I am Allah" in a mosque?
  6. You are on this forum asking this specific question, you look ready to me
  7. No, you are too relativistic I am not saying it's wrong or anything but you can be a sheep or a buddha, I go for buddha. You can endorse sheephood if you want The regrets millions of people have on their death bed is sign enough that it's not all equally valid
  8. He has the grit and hustle to do debates. A debate basically is an intellectual boxing match
  9. But it's like so natural. You don't even need a crazy level of "baseline" wisdom. It's obvious that life at some point should be going in a existential/meditative direction I think peoples idea of wisdom is to live life on a egoic level and then when they are cripplingly old, to gain some of it. But that's not wise. You wanna live a wise, selfless life, not live life and then become wise
  10. @Leo Gura I am still struggling to understand the majority of people. 8hrs+ of labor for decades just to survive is acceptable but 1hr of meditation for a few years to reach truth is too much? Like how...
  11. Just randomly clicked on the latest interview, one minute and fifteen seconds in and on the intro he already is talking about the evil "radical left" and how those people are privileged, yet they moan about everything bla bla bla. His use of the word "radical" is improper. He basically is summarizing all of the left as radicals. So when he says the "radical left", he just means the "left". He has a very reactionary attitude, like as if someone is pointing a gun at him right on the spot. He takes himself and his worldview very serious, which is why he will never realise God
  12. The real question is: do psychedelics support JP? Looks like they don't
  13. @Fearless_Bum counting 667, not a devil anymore Isn't that a valid reason to celebrate?
  14. Try to see the humor in all of it Also nature looks beautiful around Rio, how about hiking some of the trails?
  15. Silently tell yourself "nothing bad can happen to me". Almost like a mantra
  16. @Kksd74628 I did but also I killed the buddha ?
  17. The buddha symbol is not representing a guy that lived multiple decades ago. It is representing Youuuuuuuuuuuuuuujuhuuuuu
