  1. @Focus Shift Im sorry but I can't call it "awareness", because it's not objective, it's highly left-naive-pacifist-hippy biased. They are looking for the bad guy, and it's easy to automatically assume the stronger side is wrong. You can't listen to me either because I am also automatically biased being an Israeli, of course I work on that and try to be as objective as possible. Actually I'm all for the Two Countries solution, maybe even to allow Palestinians who want to become citizens of Israel with full rights a chance. This is a deep systemic fault, and it has multiple factors, which makes the quest for peace even harder. How about the world's ancient anti-semitism? We have nowhere to go, this tiny piece of land is our only home. How about the fact that we live peacefully with israeli arabs and we are at peace with many arab countries? It's them who want us gone no matter what, we are the ones who seek practical humane solutions. There are multiple peace programs that work with palestinian kids and israeli kids to be more united. At least half of our parliament is Left-Wing Progressive Stage Green, which actually these days isn't allowing for a Right-Wing government to assemble. Did you know that they educate their children for vengeance and violence? But don't listen to me, listen to the Jordanian's representative speech: The main problems that aren't allowing solutions are: We have a right wing religious-nationalist government. We were attacked many times by neighbour arab countries, we sustain attacks almost daily from Hamas and Hezbollah, which are stage Purple-Red Terrorist groups that exist just to kill us. Gaza is occupied by Hamas, and has no stable government to establish a country, which actually happened because we took our forces out of gaza many years ago. Plus if she really cared about her message she wouldn't charge for the film. I would totally watch it if it were free.

  3. @assx95 You are in fact conscious, but your idea of "everything" is imaginary, and so you are looking for it outside of actuality. (There's nothing "outside" of it.)
  4. @The Don Dear Sir, I'm sorry if it will seem harsh and rude, but someone should tell you this, You are wasting your time here. Do yourself a huge favour and leave. For some people it may do damage, because they are not ready. If I really tried to explain why, I would say that some people are just not mentally capable of crossing the post-rational barrier, and so non-dual teaching are not useful for them in any way whatsoever. Really, I wish you well with all my heart, Godspeed
  5. How would you apply the democratic principle between two people? If one says a hard "yes", and the other a hard "no"? What then?
  6. @Preety_India I guess we can boil it all down to Borderline thinking and exaggeration. Thinking you are either nice or a jerk, and going from one extreme to other. This kind of radicality is just a result of a low level of development, and that's where most people are, so that's why we get all the stereotypes. (All women yada yada, All men yada yada.) My personal rule of thumb is not to judge the whole by the majority. To personally embody this means to understand that you always represent all your kind, and to act accordingly.
  7. @Fede83 This issue goes much deeper and it has to do with codependency. One of its most common patterns of behaviour is pleasing others from a place of neediness. Someone who has that, sees his behaviour as "nice", and when he sees someone who doesn't do the same he calls him " a rude and arrogant jerk", but all that is a borderline judgement from a limited selfish perspective, which stems from low self esteem - this means that his perception is twisted by his illness. Also, it all depends on where the niceness is coming from, if it's not from manipulation, but an honest giving of kindness with no strings attached, then we are getting somewhere. A well rounded individual knows how to blend all these principles in a tactful manner, and so he may be both kind and attractive. You can also throw in stereotypical thinking, generalizing and level of development. It's obvious that people on different levels of development appreciate, and are attracted to different kinds of behaviours. For example, unhealthy stage red is attracted to displays of power.
  8. @Nak Khid In our group meeting (12 Steps) we are advised to only speak in I. I can easily see why, because I can truly only know things for certain about myself, and all else is intrusive speculation.
  9. @Leo Gura Is it true to say that if many have committed suicide, it was indeed god's plan? How can anything go against god's will? If he gave us free choice, why should any choice be wrong? If death is imaginary, is suicide also imaginary? Isn't it arrogant to assume that that we can affect the way of nature with our actions?
  10. @arlin Sorry if I'm repeating, but this one is worth repeating: If happiness is indeed what you desire, you shouldn't make it a goal. It's a paradox, to be happy let go of the need for happiness. Cheers.
  11. Hello again dear actualizers! It seems as if Masculine is attracted to it's eqally opposite Feminine and visa versa. Is it always the case? Do you know of examples from personal experience which show otherwise? Please share.
  12. @Apparition of Jack Wordpress works amazingly for me. Easy templates that are special for blogs. Examples - 3 of my blogs: https://treeofwisdom.org/ https://mydependencyblog.wordpress.com/ https://antonsjournal.home.blog/
  13. @Leo Gura 1. How can you take an entheogen and say that the truth shown to you is absolute? Isn't the experience (or no-experience) relative to the entheogen and the temporary state? We say that if something is changing it can't be the absolute. 2. If I reach a state where the mind isn't perceiving objects (no-mind), is it correct then to assume that they aren't real? 3. Isn't non duality a confusion of the subjective for the objective, and a basic assumption that one can reach truth via subjective experience? (Of course in a non-dual state the duality of the subjective-objective collapses, but is that state dependent collapse reliable?)
  14. Why do we point our finger at our brain when we say mind? Is that correct? Or just an old habit?
  15. @Lento Nowhere at all.
  16. @Inliytened1 If mind is indeed all there is, what do we mean when we say mind? How can anything infinite be distinguished at all?
  17. It's more correct to say desire to not die. To desire or not is the same thing. Actually I'm increasingly desiring it because I've completely changed the way I'm looking at it. Of course there is fear, but isn't that a different creature?
  18. @Lento I'm specifically intrested in what we mean when we say it, and why we point at our head. Just saw Leo do that in his last video and started to wonder, how come after so much seeking and mystical experiences he's still perceiving it like that.
  19. What else is there to do? To gain direct consciousness of that. It is possible.
  20. There are so many perspectives to take on this, that I will get tired of listing them all. Where ISn't mind? Is there even a "mind"? Mind is god, god is mind, it's nowhere, and everywhere, and neither of those, at the same time, nothing is not mind, so there's no way of talking about it without creating an illusory duality. @fridjonk Who escapes and why?
  21. Some cutting edge thinking in regards to Conscious Politics. It seems he's found a way to take Orange principles of free market and entrepreneurial thinking to help advance our society in healthier ways.
  22. Cool new genre, called High Tech.
