More people than we think feel weird about themselves The vast majority feel absolutely real so to question that sounds stupid to them. Even if they consider it , it doesn’t “shake” the realness of their sense of self so they just keep going about their day. Human play is about survival, of both body and mental identity, of pleasure and avoiding pain. It’s not designed to find “the truth of reality”. I have a very very loose theory that the self is in a very very slow process of dissolution for everyone- because it requires a certain energy and activity to be maintained - it’s like law of physics how all things are slowly being destroyed (mountains for example) So in that way we may be designed to ultimately find truth but it can take lifetimes I think at the end of the day desire is one of the most powerful things , if you just have strong enough desire you’ll increase your chances of success a lot (in getting enlightened for example). I lack in that area I have had desire for other things in life. I don’t know how to strongly desire the wisest things to desire

Recently the forum has been laggy as hell It can make it less desirable to use, we can be impatient sometimes But I just realized that every moment it lags its opportunity to meditate To take a deep breath . To allow that little swirly thingy going around in circles to put you in a trance To return your attention from being immersed in the world of form back to the observer To deepen your presence in this very moment. So next time it lags, you can take the opportunity . 🧘🏻‍♀️ #zenlife #hippie 😂

The shortest possible answer to the question “what is enlightenment” is : Enlightenment is. (It might even be correct )

Is she trying to better her mental health? If no then maybe it’s not worth investing in such a person. If she is actively trying to improve herself then maybe it’s worth giving it time, but if it persists for long and doesn’t get better then might consider leaving. Her depression is probably not the only factor to you considering leaving, but I just commented on that because it’s the thing you mentioned. Basically if someone is trying to improve and you see their potential it can be worth staying to grow together and meet the better version of yourselves eventually. But if you don’t see that in her then…

Yea I agree. I think as long as we live with this (maybe illusion) of reality and self, it’s useful to act and talk in accordance. We can do all that while simultaneously seek to know the true nature of reality .Meaning we can play the game while simultaneously seeking to end it and know truth of it

There’s something funny about your persona while simultaneously you write in a beautiful way

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂the fact you counted

i was kidding I know I think it could happen that someone doesn’t wanna perceive themselves as being addicted to coffe, because it gives the impression of being somehow “weak” and “a slave to impulses”, not the best image. But I don’t think it’s common to have the opposite where you don’t wanna feel well and be independent of coffe. I don’t know tho

They are free to judge you based on what you write yourself Kinda People can genuinely be addicted to coffe biologically without the act of identity preservation being present.

Indeed. It’s like since we identify as being this human , we project identity onto outside world , separate things into objects. The rest I don’t get but it’s okay it’s common when you write things
