Something Funny

Why is everyone acting like they are the only ones capable of fighting back? "Oh no, lets not make them mad. Lets all walk on tippy-toes to not wake up those scary fascists".

I see, I don't feel bad for him, but I do for you. I am sorry.

I guess I was hoping that it would show people like him, and Trump, and Putin, and all the other pieces of ... drunk on power, that they are not untouchable, and that they are not beyond suffering the consequences of their actions. But it's probably wishful thinking.

Am I wrong to think that it's bad for democracy like chemotherapy is bad for health.

Why did he mean so much too you?

Do you people actually feel sad for him or are you just trying to act "spiritual"?

It's been a while since I've actually set down and watched them with my fool attention. Not listening to them in the background on my way to work, or while cooking, or while eating. But actually setting down and watching them. It feels like a whole different experience. I think I fell into a trap of not wanting to spend 3 hours to just watch a single video, so I tried to optimize it and make it more "efficient". But it's definitely worth it. I actually think that it's the only worthwhile way of watching them.

@Eskilon it's similar in that: - it can be hard / easy depending on how you choose to play the game - there is a big open world to explore - you re-spawn at benches/bonfires after death and you lose your soul on death, which you need to go and collect or you lose all your money - enemies in the area respawn upon death/rest at bonfire - there are epic boss fights - there are charismatic, memorable NPCs that everyone loves Things that are different: - vibe, atmosphere (the most important things imho) - artstyle - fights: hollow knight doesn't have parries, backstabs, shield to block damage. You mainly avoid getting hurt by dodging the attacks - builds: you are not locked into a certain build in hollow knight due to the amount of soul you've invested into it, you can easily switch things up at any moment you want and itemize differently for every boss fight - leveling: there are no stats/levels in hollow knight, you unlock specific abilities, get items, and upgrade your weapon - soft locked areas: in dark souls you can technically go anywhere but the enemies will be too high level for you. In hollow knight you could technically beat the whole game without any upgrades if you are skilled enough but you are locked by your movement abilities (you need a double jump, dash, wall climb to get there), there are skips though.

@Eskilon not really, it has a different atmosphere and feel to it. I like hollow knight much more.

Silksong today!!!

Do you notice any benefits?

@archithats interesting, what made it worth it for you?

30-60 minutes every day for one year, according to Leo's video. I haven't read the booknyet, but it will probably have some guideline as well.

I don't like sadhguru

Leo, but you are saying it from the perspective of someone who has tried all of them and lots more. I think there is value in doing just that.

I am also wondering about this. I feel that as a newbie, I will benefit from learning everything from scratch.

Just bought the J.C. Stevens's book. It will take a few weeks to arrive though.

They didn't, there are lots of young people who are right wingers.

Lol, the forum is super laggy today.

@ZenSwiftthank you, not sure how trustworthy chatgpts interpretation is though.

what's that? found it, thank you

@ExploringReality you are right, I actually have it but forgot that there were books about kriya yoga.

@Leo Gura what resources do you recommend for getting started with Kriya yoga?

@Leo Guraregarding your last post, maybe it's a pointless question, but do you not consider psychedelics "human"?
