How to be wise

You’re not being very clear.

@Raptorsin7 I think this belongs in the ‘high consciousness resources’ section. Moderators, if you may.

@Seemore Escaping suffering by ‘imagining your problems away’ is pretty neurotic. If you have problems, deal with them head on, instead of running away from them.

Since God is infinite, the process of experiencing itself will never end.

Then what is the purpose of life? Up to this point, I thought it was because God wants to experience itself fully. Surely that means getting enlightened?

Just when I thought China was catching up to the West in terms of development. It seems there is still a huge gap between China and the West.

@Vibroverse Why don’t you check some physics forums then? Not sure why you would search here.

Or maybe you’re confusing ‘dysfunctional’ with ‘difficult.’ It could be either, which is why you should take preliminary steps first. Conversations are the best way. If your partner doesn’t want to talk, then you end it.

Too quick to jump to that. All relationships have problems. You can’t just ‘reset’ all the time.

@Leo Gura You’re going to be 36 soon. How does it feel to approach middle age?

@Caio Make sure you don’t make this a one-time event. If you will gain from psychedelics, you must do it consistently. As Leo says, 50+ trips is where you start seeing good results.

@BipolarGrowth The title reeks of close-mindedness. Young man, you have a lot to learn. Humble yourself.

@lmfao If I was a moderator, this place would have a lot less trouble makers. There’s a bucket list of people I would throw out of this forum.

This forum has enough trouble makers. We most certainly don’t need more.

Why are you asking us what you can and can’t do? That’s your choice, not ours.

Unfortunately, the devil will outlive all of us.

That won’t happen in our lifetime.

@Sempiternity How to be a 3% man, by Corey Wayne.

What was the point of this thread? A very short rant?

@Etherial Cat Well, you need to remember that the Islamic world is mostly located in the desert, where women would normally wear very little due to the heat. Of course that would make the ‘no sex before marriage’ rule very hard to implement by men! I think that’s why Muslims are more strict about this than other stage Blue societies.

Maybe. But the reason why Muslims today force women to cover up, is without doubt the reason I mentioned above. If the country has lenient laws about sex before marriage, you’ll find women dressed as they want. But if the country punishes it harshly, eg Saudi, Iran, Afghanistan, etc (whipping if you were a virgin, and death if you were ever married), then you will find the women covered completely. The men are doing it to save themselves from punishment, rather than to avoid pleasure.

@levani People use those labels in different ways. The main difference in enlightenment for me is permanent enlightenment and enlightenment experience, which are self explanatory.

The reason why Muslims (not just Middle Easterners) wear a veil is to hide their beauty. That’s because sex before marriage is illegal in Islam, so men don’t want to be tempted to ‘fall into sin’. Hence they hide her body. Of course it varies in strictness. Afghan women (under Taliban) hide themselves head to toe, including the face, whilst in Turkey most women don’t even wear the headscarf.

The guy said “If I was 19”, so it will be about two years. In Europe, I think it will be sooner.

@coca So why not go to those parties yourself?
