  1. What about genetics, personalities, life experiences, personal interests, personal values, one's most important goals and purpose? Your specific mind made it possible for you to know everything that you do and to awaken to everything you've awaken to. I'll never experience a mind as close as yours. Yes, of course I can develop my own mind, but that is not the same as experiencing yours — knowing everything you know, becoming conscious of everything you are conscious of, or simply discovering your way of thinking and experiencing the world. You have a highly specific kind of intelligence. I don’t even have the same personality type as you. To tell me I can develop a mind like yours for myself is actually false. I don't have similar health problems to you, but my mind works in such a way that it is incredibly hard for me to just live normally. I'm below average in many aspects, despite being above average in others. My mind is suited to experience very deep suffering, which prevents me from focusing on higher aims. It's a very tough battle I've been facing just to get there. And I'm still not fully there yet. I wouldn't be scared to experience the suffering you face from your health problems, as the suffering I've been facing is incredibly profound as well.
  2. Watch Harry Potter. There is some conflict, but it mostly focuses on the positive. And, it is self-soothing.
  3. To experience you and your mind, I'd take it, for sure. The money and the suffering. Actually, I'd even take it if there were no money involved. Your mind is the ultimate reward.
  4. @Hojo I didn't say it couldn't happen.
  5. I think the odds are low for this to happen — for a mentally ill person to actually seek out this kind of advanced content and go deeper into insanity with it. But even then, Leo can't babysit all of humanity. No one could do that. And mentally sane people need to learn to take responsibility for themselves. Everyone is free to click off a video at any time or simply not do research about the nature of reality if they're not ready to have their view of the world transformed.
  6. @Someone here Why do you think it's dangerous?
  7. To explore and evolve, in the simplest sense. Earth gives us a ground for self-exploration. Though, maybe we're actually the Earth getting to know itself! What about the Earth becoming more conscious of itself through its own neurons: human beings? There could be infinite ways for God to know and explore itself, since God is infinite. We're so ignorant of everything as human beings… it's actually a very interesting experience to have. To figure it all out on our own with such a small window of consciousness is quite a crazy design.
  8. I think it makes a lot of sense that there are other forms of life. It wouldn't be reasonable to believe that the only form of life that can ever exist is the one we know: the one of human beings on planet Earth. There are infinite possibilities for planets, beings, and materialities. And we agree we're not our body, so why couldn't we keep going when we die — and even come back, creating ourselves as another human again? We lose our body and our human identity with physical death, yet that's not who we fundamentally are. The insanity would be to believe that life — our own consciousness — will end, when so many testimonies, of people from all countries, ages and backgrounds, tell the same story after having a near-death experience or accessing memories of their afterlife through regression hypnosis. It's as if one were to talk to people who discovered a new continent. The travelers would tell of their incredible discovery, share the same information in perfect coherence, despite all going seperately and at different times. Yet the listener would dismiss the existence of that other continent as false and impossible, simply because they've never been there themselves and strongly believe their continent is the only one that exists. In fact, they wouldn't even want to listen to the testimonies of the travelers! That is so unscientific, yet, that's what many people do. Sugarcoat: I'm not necessarily talking to you directly, but I'm baffled that certain people call themselves scientists when they totally dismiss information that doesn't fit their belief system. It's as hard to comprehend that scientifically minded people know, despite not having any proof or direct experience, that consciousness is created by the brain and bound to the physical body. How could this make sense? It makes even less sense when it's a belief constructed by people who call themselves rational. I understand it's where a lot of people are at in their development, but still, there are so many incoherences in people's minds, and they don't even want to try to uncover them.
  9. Actually, I am: my hairline's receding. It's the unknown I'm heading toward… that's scary On the contrary, I've gained hair on my chest and stomach. That's more masculine, but so unnecessary. My head's way more important
  10. Fully merging back with God might be an ultimate desire, though I believe as important is the desire for God — and for us as individual beings — to fully know and experience Itself/ourselves. It's not just about becoming One again with the Ultimate (though we're never separate), but also about exhausting self-discovery and experience, even if it's infinite. From my perspective, one life as a human is just a very tiny experience of ourselves, where we can learn, for example, what it’s like to live in a physical body and experience a material reality. We might need to experience it many times just to get used to it and understand ourselves better — to understand who we are as infinite beings and simply evolve. It's quite fascinating actually to be dropped into this reality, not knowing anything about it, nor the reasons why we're here, nor what we need to do. I'm in shock just for being here in a body I can move. It's astounding. It would be great to have flashbacks into what we were before incarnating, or flash-forwards into what it will be like after death. Some people have experienced this through in-between lifetimes regression hypnosis, but I hold the believe I couldn't access that due to my overactive analytical mind, so I haven't tried.
  11. What do you mean to discover here: the Absolute (understanding God), or whether reincarnation is the case? Because those are two different endeavors. I think you're talking about the Absolute, but the topic is investigating reincarnation, so that's confusing.
  12. @Ishanga I don't understand what your point is. Are you saying we shouldn't try to understand or know certain parts of reality because the desire to know comes from the ego? Your text is not clear to me.
  13. I believe reincarnation is true — and also agree that it is a relative truth. There are well studied cases of people remembering past lives in extreme details. But I also think that reincarnation doesn't necessarily have to be bound to Earth, that someone's consciousness could choose to keep evolving, after a life on Earth, in a different world or reality, such as in a non-physical reality. I wish to understand in great detail how God/Consciousness proceeds to divide itself and create realities and independent conscious beings. I understand at the Absolute level how it is possible, but a lot of pieces are missing to precisely know its design. It's like I understand how a skyscraper can be build, but I don't master how all the parts are put together to make it stand perfectly. I also wish to understand who we are and what we experience when we are not limited to a human life like this one. I think this avatar is just a tiny part of ourselves, and that we will expand back to our higher, vaster consciousness once we die. That's such an interesting topic, even if it is part of the relative domain.
  14. @Salvijus Their situation is very interesting indeed. It's mind-blowing. I also gained insights on my own life experience which stem from my soul's purpose, or something along purpose those lines.
  15. That's an insane case. It goes beyond transgenderism. Do they even consider themselves transgender? Did you specifically hear about this in the video?
  16. Thank you to everyone who contributed to this thread. I'm really happy about all the positive messages that were posted. I tried to reply to all, but I'm a slow writer and wasn’t quick enough to post all the messages I wanted to. Still, the vibe was very positive, and I really appreciated that. So, thank you!
  17. @Salvijus Glad you finally realize that your interference isn't needed. There were many contradictions in the way you conveyed your message. This alone, you know, was sufficient. It says it all clearly and simply, with no egoic agenda being pushed forward.
  18. @Salvijus Wasn't it clear to you, from my opening post, that my motivations come from the heart? I honestly don't know how it isn't obvious to you.
  19. You are literally changing your own rules along the way to suit your ego as best you can.
  20. You are telling people how the game of life is made to be played, and that: « the role that has been given you cannot be changed and you should honor it, that's what truly defines you. Start focusing more on your life purpose than your appearance. » And you defend your view with a passion. But, your vision of how the game is meant to be played is yours — perhaps also the one of people around you, but it's not universal. I don't have the same vision as you. I believe people can change, and that they have the right to focus on whatever they want in their life. I needed to focus on my identity before focusing on my life purpose. Why should I not, if it brings me peace for the next 60 years of my life? Who are you to tell people what they should do with their life, and to think that you know better than them? This is your ego speaking. If your heart were open, you would realize that people transitioning is about bringing more harmony and peace in their life, and reducing chaos. Isn't love about wanting peace and harmony for people? You brought up the example of people detransitioning, but do you truly care about their suffering? Wise, loving people do. They don't use these cases to spread fear or hatred toward all transgender people, wishing that they didn't exist for their own selfish reasons.
  21. Do you realize that you're acting out of ego and fear?
  22. Not much has changed for me, actually. The most striking differences I have noticed so far are that: - I'm always served last when I'm with women in a restaurant, whereas it was random before. It is weird to me, because I am the exact same person - Strangers always assume I am with my girlfriend when I am out with a female friend, which is something I have a hard time getting used to. I'd rather have them assume we are just friends, as it feels a bit awkward for me. I've met my friends long before transitioning. - All of a sudden, I felt like I expressly had to open the door for women and my female friends, and let them go ahead of me in various situations. I used to do it out of politeness, or simply go first if that was how things flowed — but now I feel like I have to let them go, because that's what's expected from men. I like to do things because I want to, and I naturally care for others, but now I feel the pressure of society every time I open a door in a social setting. - Quite a different story, but it happened to me once that a man, who was a total stranger, used gross sexual or vulgar language in my presence — he was actually talking to me (but not about me). I can't remember what he said, but I was shocked, especially since it happened at the beginning of my transition. I'm confident he wouldn't have said whatever he said if I had been a girl. However, this was a one-time experience. - I've also noticed that it's now uncomfortable for me to talk to girls my age who are strangers. It used to feel normal, but now I'm concerned about what they'll think my intentions are. It's unsettling. - The atmosphere is nicer and more relaxed in the female bathrooms. Other than that, it's quite the same for me, but I'm still in the process of getting used to my new identity. A part of me still tends to think that people will assume I went through a transition, even though they totally can't. Male and female genders, and gender roles, are still difficult for me to deeply understand. I've technically experienced both, but I’ve never had a typical male or female psyche, so my perspective remains external, like studying the opposite gender — for both. I have a very hard time to understand how people can feel like a man or a woman, as this isn't part of my reality.
  23. I think it comes from a higher place than the human mind. But in my case, neurodivergence, ancestral lineage (the memories of our ancestors that are transmitted to us), and my karmic history are at play.
  24. I honestly don't know where else you think it could come from. Do you really think transgender people want to be transgender? You can't imagine how hard it is. Who would go through that if it weren't for very deep reasons? No mature person would ever make the decision to transition if it weren't an absolute need.
  25. Because your mind is closed. You don't want to hear anything, you just want to persuade others that you are right and everyone else is wrong. If you were wiser, and if there was a slight possibility for you to admit that you might be wrong, we could have a conversation. But honestly debating you feels like a waste of time to me. You want to fight, and I am not a fighter. Is it masculine or femine: I don't care. As I said, I am neither male nor female. But that, you understand even less. It takes too much energy for me to debate, and in the end, I really don't care what you think of what people should or shouldn't do. You don't speak in the name of God, as you're implying. You don't even understand God. You know what? I followed my heart.
