  1. Now that we are on the subject of music I have a pretext to shoehorn this into a thread:
  2. I might try that. Hummus is my thing in that sense, though - dipping red bell pepper into it. Eating like goats
  3. Yeah, as an intellectual discourse for entertainment, a question you could ask would be something like: What is changeless? What is not *done* by the mind? Something exists. Or is the source of existence - perhaps. This might not be apprehended by our sense experience now. You'd be suggesting that something exists beyond or prior to our perceived reality, that isn't some thing, but is perhaps analogous to space, where objects (as the content) exist within that canvas. Some poetry by Rumi or similar might help. But I'm not sure.
  4. It's not out yet but fuck it
  5. No research really, just a hunch (OK, maybe a little bit of research) that its most natural form is the healthiest (always pasteurized, by the way). Dairy did often mess with my skin too (mostly acne), but it's been a while since that happened. Plain Greek yogurt with honey and blueberries is great. Forgot to include meat, chicken, and some fish - mostly tuna, occasionally. Yeah, legumes are awesome. I've never tried soy except in milk form, though. I feel that a diet like that, plus daily exercise - even just walking and stretching - covers most of what health recommendations are really about (rather simplistic perhaps but it is reasonable ).
  6. That checks out. I'd say our living as if our memory were accurate or a true reflection of the past is the issue. If we saw it as largely self-serving, as if one were a storyteller, we would likely not take it so seriously, or as necessarily true, thus diminishing the power it has on this present moment. Maybe.
  7. What is there to stomach? Perhaps you can point them to the notion or possibility of the absolute. Whatever they or anyone else makes of that will be wrong and inaccurate. You're essentially demanding of them to get enlightened. And chances are you aren't either. That's a good opportunity to investigate the matter from a more real ground.
  8. I personally don't do it. There's really no need to as my diet consists mostly of vegetables, legumes, eggs, full-fat milk, some carbs, and whatnot - plus the occasional junk food, bread, and sweets. I've never been fat. I do use white sugar in my tea or coffee, but I've been cutting back on caffeine lately. Counting calories is a bit like a foreign notion to me

    Easy there, young Padawan. I have the high ground.
  10. What is memory? What is its purpose? And what are you even recalling? In my view, memory is largely biased and inaccurate from the beginning, even if you have good memory. Chances are one wasn't even clear on what was actually occurring at the time, except for one's subjective experience and viewpoint. Think about it: How do you recall? What do you do with your mind when recalling a past event?

    @Eskilon I understand why you'd see it like that. But I've given up explaining myself at this point.
  12. @Basman About three months, less than an hour a day.
  13. Let's see how long it takes people to make a religion out of this. @Leo Gura Lisan al'Gaib.
  14. People keep ignoring that I've done my fair share of the substances, and yet are still dismayed when I say it's not IT. Believe whatever you want. Bringing heresy to the church is of course not going to be welcomed.
  15. @Basman I told you I'd dedicate my second RD2 playthrough to you . Finally finished it.
  16. Leo

    It wasn't related to anything you said.

    Pointing out bullshit - the form of love that nobody likes (and so isn't perceived as such).
  18. Cats are truly superior to us apes.
  19. Wrong. That ain't enlightenment or awakening but most likely a change in mind state precipitated by the chemical. See what I mean? You somehow keep missing this. Oh well, c'est la vie. Blind leading the blind. @CARDOZZO Sounds about right. I wouldn't get too hung up on "roads" either.
