Rafael Thundercat replied to Someone here's topic in Spirituality, Consciousness, Awakening, Mysticism, Meditation, God
I will add something here since tis topic Connects Solipsism with Ontological Nihilism , even after Leo saying in his Solopsim Video the You will Realise that you are All Alone because you are All Togheter. In my Humble View it means that Solpsism is not reason to Become Nihilistic In This Line I will share the link from the WebSite Perspectiva : this one :https://systems-souls-society.com/ But talking about How our Solopsistic Society (Meaning Individualist) Is not helping Us to make the important Changes we need in Order to Keep Going as Humans. yes , even if you think or Know that this all a dream the true is that the dream can end very bad and very soon, God Create Another Dream up from its Ass, but is good if we engage in Keeping this Dream going on Because, Well, is Great isnt it ? Here is the Excerpt from this Link: https://systems-souls-society.com/the-solipsistic-society/ You can click directly in the link if the text looks interesting to you "Solipsism should not be conflated with selfishness in the pejorative sense. Solipsism deals with the problem of the self being trapped in the self by the self in a kind of perpetual self-reference. This closed loop can lead to the collective belief that only individual perception, thoughts, and experience can be known to exist and therefore to be considered real. Solipsism can be grouped into two categories, one dealing with reality directly and the other with the knowledge of reality. The first is ontological and says only the self is real where the other is epistemological and says that only the self is knowable. However subtle these distinctions are philosophically; my focus is practical: on how societal solipsism is reproduced through collective self-perpetuating beliefs and how we can approach moving beyond our predicament. A solipsistic society is therefor not a mere collection of self-centered individuals, although that is one view. Instead, it refers to collective beliefs about what is real and possible, as though everyone is wearing an epistemic straightjacket; unable to imagine how things can be known differently and changed. In what follows I don’t want to hang too much on any single definition or variant of solipsism, but I do want to argue that when conceived in a broad sense, the condition of late modernity is solipsistic in a collective sense. The unit of analysis is the social imaginary, which can be taken as our shared psychocultural home and as forming the limits and shape of our collective awareness. It also directs our attention in fixed directions. This is a valuable concept because it speaks to the roots of fundamental problems that underlie many of our collective action problems, our immunity to change,[1] which is compounded by an atrophied faculty of the imagination. The history of Western philosophy also has a long tradition of reality-denying, only taking what can be experienced as real, thereby forming cognitive horizons that make it harder for our imagination to go beyond. The widely quoted claim that it is ‘easier to imagine the end of the world than to imagine the end of capitalism’ captures the problem of societal solipsism and the constraints the system puts around our imagination well.[2] We like to think we are free, but we are also kept entranced in this dream we call reality, from which we are now being rudely awakened by the really Real, which reasserts itself as the manifestations of the Metacrisis.[iii] I propose some domains of inquiry that I believe can bring us closer to a right relationship with Reality, which is not only something concrete like nature or physical matter, but equally truths of constant flux, change and creative dynamism and outcomes of our evolutionary history we have no choice but to embody. Stuckness can only persist by denying these truths, but continuing to do so limits discovering ways forward and prevents us from moving into futures we desire or away from ones we want to avoid. The opposite of stuckness is what I call ‘collective unfolding’. If we accept that in the West, we are in the process of losing our current, late-modern social imaginary as our stable home, as it is now appearing to liquify under the reassertion of the Real and pressures of the manifold crises, then we’ll have to learn to be in right relationship with reality’s inherent change and its patterns of unfolding and decay. -
Ok, This Video could be a Companion Video for the Video I posted in the Beggining of This Post. This One https://youtu.be/ilDlig_mPCQ?si=clVUkliRyUJjLyNS The The Core Question for Both Men and Woman in this video Below is : Why You Keep Choosing this Type of Person?? He makes the question around 8:40 min of the video. For me is always a self- reflection question that helps and helped me when I was many times entering in disfunctional and toxic relationships. I f you observe your patterns you can catch yourself and see that many times you get attracted with people to compensate something not integrated or Healed in yourself. The Ideia is to become so Integrated that you will see clearly if a person is or is not fit for you.

What part of the Unintently of the Title you did not understood. The Guy is Saying is a Ephiphenomenon. In complex System there are stuff that happen because individuals act on their own self-Interest Bias or Not and this end Up creating ripple effects in the collective that they will never know they are even creating. For Example: Every one individualy chossing to Eat at McDonalds is a contributor for many things that happens. Including the continuation of McDonalds as a Bussiness that keep serving JunkFood.

@Consept Maybe better when are Interviews because the speaker need to be more Accountable with his promptings

No, Life is not About Fairness, is about Survival, and of course Trancendence. If Nature would think about Fairness the Lions would Starve to Death and some Frogs too: https://www.instagram.com/reel/C2nPa-8x0y3/?igsh=bWlxbXU5ZXVkZ2Ny

In Absolute level yes, all equal, but in Spiritual development levels No. I am more awake than a regular Evangelical Church member. Maybe not more awake than Leo Gura but more than average Theist.

@Yali Is This Girl High Value for you? I not say that Her Live dont Have Value or that She is Shit. Is a Human being in suffering. Wold you date her and Live your Life with Her, Help Her in a Selfless way? Would you be Loving and Godlike to her ?

@Princess Arabia This may be a little of the answer why In India, Favelas and Poor Parts of the World people tend to join toothbrushes more often and have more kids : Is No confusing NEEDS with DESIRES. a Question also of The Carrot and Stick, Or Incentives : Ps: a lot videos of the same guy, but is because this guy is so direct. I would love to find some gaps in this discourse and yes he may have some Bias, but a lot what he say makes sense. Yes I know, sense making is Survival, but better make sense than keep speaking senseless things all around :
-
When We Talk about Value with are Talking about the Economics of Something. We tend to Mix Economy with Morals and Sweet Fellings. Survival is Driven by some Inerent Economic Tenets, Emeshed in Us. It cuts through our Intectual Blablabla
-
Yes, is possibe, is also possible that one of the parts involved in the relationship grow more than the other in beauty,heath and wealth and break apert for the differences in Value. I remeber having a girlfriend that today I consider being Low Value, Physicaly, and Psycologicaly. Today I would never ever Date her. But when I Dated her I was not so aware of some aspects that I am today so I dated her. Value Awareness can grow with time, and the more you grow your Standards more grow the Standards of Who you want to Share a Bed or Even a House.

@Princess Arabia This one too: We all have blindspots. No matter how we rationalize, in the end of the day some primitive forces win the Game, the good news is that Men can Increase their changes of Sucess or Susexx. The Guys try all they can to Mate :
-
@Princess Arabia two videos for your consideration. The truth is to raw and dry, more true and dry than our cosncious minds want to accept. Nature is smarter than our Bias.

If I was a Lion I would have no Problem in Jumping in the Neck of a gazele and feel the blood in my mouth. If any moralist would come preaching non-Viloence to me I would eat the preacher too. What is will be what is. The Bias comes later. There are even some frogs that eat their siblings Hungry Frog Eat His Brother https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DI94lz8Xquk No Bias, No problem. Survival is King

There are come Christian Mystics Who do this think Called Contemplation Groups, based on the Original Way of Life of the People of the Desert, the Essenes and possibily The Zoroastrians and Sufis. Just Imagine, all we know about the people of the Desert is that they were not Involved with the Bullshit of the People of Babilon and other Warmongers of the past, if there are some Sane style of Commuinty to emulate from the past I would bet into the Schools os Mysteries and This Essenes and the Nazarenes. I was making a research on it sice some of my Hippie Ayahuasca Friend are always speaking about the Egipt and Godess Isis and thing like this , but I rememeber reading in the Upanishads that for the Vedic Masters the Egiptians where people who lost their minds in adoring natural forces and idolatry, but Even before Egipt there was more simple people who could recognise the duality but still know the Unity of All, one of them was Zaratustra: look one of the prayers of this guy: ""When I conceived of Thee, O Mazda, as the very First and the Last, as the most Adorable One. as the Father of Good Thought, as the Creator of Truth and Right, as the Lord Judge of our actions in life, then I made a place for Thee in my very eyes"-Yasna, 31-4. (Translation by D. J. Irani.) Comparing with the sermon of Meister Eckhart stated it in one of his sermons, “The eye with which I see God is the same eye with which God sees me: my eye and God’s eye are one eye, one seeing, one knowing and one love.” So what this all have to do with building a Community of likeminded people and contemplation? Here are some links to get some ideias : https://cac.org/ Center for Action and Contemplation (cac.org) https://cac.org/events/ https://awakeningsinc.org/ Awakenings | Connection Inclusiveness Love (awakeningsinc.org) If you want to have fun to discover a bit of the Zoroastrian Heritage this very simple website is a golden mine. I suspect that this Guys are the decendents of the place called Gobekli-Tepe a place that is Older than even Egipt and maybe even older than Sumerians https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Göbekli_Tepe Why, is important all this. Well, the truth is. we are naturally communitary beings. We are ment to live together, commute and to conect in small groups with a simple living where people REALLY know each other personaly for a good period of time. Where there is initiation rites, the elders live with the teens and childen. This Worldwide Virtual Community is a Myth. It work because the Internet but without Internet we would be limited by our local Environment. Belonging to Nature and to each other.

Well, she is stating her taste. You can assume she uncousciously still will fall fpr badBoys and It must be the case, but in the beggining of the thread I didnt say we are not allowed to express our personal preferences. For example, I am not attracted for promiscuous girls. Promiscuity is a subjective thing so would be difficult to make a list of all behaviors I would declare as promiscuity, but to give an example, there is a girl, a german girl in one of my circle of friends that in the vision of another girl is the model of sensual ,sexually liberated woman yadayada. And for me her usual behaviors totally repels me sexually. This is the Girl that is hitting in this girl boyfriend. For me what is atractive is a bit of elegance, sensuality yes, but not a performative exagerated archetype of the Lillith or what some NewAge Hippies call the SacredWhore or whatever. For me just be a human being, nothing of pretentions. So, is ok to have preferences, and to know how one wants to be treated. The women attracted by Assholes, let them be, they maybe lucky and the Asshole was just a fake mark or the Asshole was a real Asshole and she will harvest dissapointment. The focus as a man is to train yourself to cut througth bullshit and be honest with what you want and dont get disappointed yourself.

I have a friend that is Atheist. And I gave him this exact Challenge: Forget asking me or others Who is God, first Try to find and prove the existence of "You" This is what I feel when I see many futile debates in this part of the Forum. This video speak all I want to say when I see some debating here. So I am posting then I will not say more anything. -
I studied Many models, Astrology, Human Desing, Gene Keys, Brigs Mayer, etc... but what this guy say here is true. In the end of the day we undertand others and even ourself by asking the carrot and stick question. What pleasure are you looking for and what Pain are you running away from. In other words " INCENTIVES"

Is importat to give more context, at least about at least what State or City you are located because Geography play a lot in the matter. If you are young and life in isolated contryside you of course will have less expousure to new oportunites. I lived in the Mountains and the nature was amazing but socially I was lacking a lot so I moved to the city and next to the Beach where I can still have good ocean baths, clubs, social events if I want. So what you want if optionality. Options, so you will expand your soul. For now be very precise in you routine, diet and information consumption so you dont get distracted with unecessary bullshit that will not directly change your life. But again, if you want more help from people here you need to give more precise inputs of your context.

Well, we all know that If an Animal is acting out of its niche and is trying to accomplish what his natural capacities didnt fit him to do he will fail. Or because the Niche is Wrong or because he is trying to offer what he are not fit to offer. Imagine a Jellyfish tring to survive in a desert. Based on this, How do you define a niche, what are the important crucial questions to make? How to find out if what you decide to offer as Value, have really Value or is just a dream?

Is amazing we have this today. As someone who was present in a person dying in front of me recently I can say to Observe it is a big experience. To see someone who you was talking with or even having breakfeast in the morning and in the afternoon you are there seeing her inert in the flow with the eyes open with that profound static stareing is very humbleling. The experience was for days in my mind, realizing that one day, this biorobot I am will eventualy turn of and this is it. A whole life gone in a second. To die is as normal as to born. -

@James123 bro, you are boring. You sound like this idiots who pretent they know it all with this Absolutist short answers. Why not give life a little more brilhance. Have you ever experienced Infinity? Have you ever did at least a good amount of 5Meo or other psycadelics end hit the rock bottom? Take your head out of your butt and go do some work. You make questions to people not knowing that maybe the person you are asking maybe in fact experienced what you are asking. But the way you ask sound like you are just asking like a troll. -
Maybe is because you have secure attachment and a healty knowledge of your own psyche and know your boundaries. Some people as the girl I know had a father that used to ignore her and dont give her appraisal etc.. so now this father wound makes her get attracted exactly by man that reenact the way her father use to treat her. Weird but true. And the more crazy is that she is aware of this factor but she say she cant avoid. So even knowing consciously the cause of her discontent she still end up following her subconcious patters.

https://www.actualized.org/insights/persistent-non-symbolic-experience The whole Leo Post is great and for me it is about the only thing that I being working my whole life to understand: Distinctions. Duality and Oneness Merged as it never was separated. We live by making Distictions, you could not even know the difference of a cup of poison or a juice without learning distictions, distinctions that where giving to you by others who also made distictions and survived by it. No distictions and is all a unified indistinct something. So I started watching this video about the Gnostics Essenes, the video explain that Jesus or Yoshua was not a Christian. Of course. He was a Mystic. And there is a point in the video he brings the history of Adam and Eve and the two trees, one is Eternal Life and the Second is the Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil. So, here we have the original Sin, the fruit of Distinction. Who to say what is good and what is Evil? Good, help me survive, Evil can Kill me The video is amazing if you are able to see that is teaching somehow the exaxt process of cutting distinctions till there is only pure objectivity, pure Isness.
