  1. @IVONNE yes, that's certainly an ethical issue.
  2. no no no. you come up with examples of ethical issues and we can discuss. thinking about it is good for your own growth.
  3. @IVONNE in my experience, you can do something about it. you can run internal campaigns on your company to encourage its professionals to work with ethic. ethical issues happen when the professionals feel pressure, somehow, making them more likely to lie to show fake results. in the company where i work, we feel protected by the internal code of ethics. we're paid to tell the truth. i work in the field of data science, so the need for strong ethical principles is a major priority.
  4. @IVONNE no. the problem would be my impurity. i would be deliberately lying if i manipulated the data to reflect whatever i wanted. lying would be the ethical issue. you can't provide an ultimate fix for ethical issues with rules/laws. the ethical issue is in the intent of the professional. rules/laws exist to mitigate the consequences of corruption.
  5. @IVONNE when i was writing my master's thesis, i would be able manipulate the data in order to show what i wanted to show if i wanted to. that would be an ethical issue.
  6. living an amazing life with my wife. waking up at 4:30am to practice pranayamas and then going to the gym before i go to work. when i come back from work, i practice hatha yoga in my living room before i go to sleep. no trash food. no toxic relationships.
  7. @ivankiss thank you. i sense that those words come from the depths of what i am. the highest mystery has been touched once more.
  8. good realization. what are your obligations, then? are you a student? do you have a job?
  9. your entire post is an attempt to look wise. it's so subtle... and when you notice it, it will stink.
  10. you have to trust yourself. authenticity and autonomy are good signs of healthy relationships. i'm going to say something that i know @Gabriel Antonio loves: you're ready for relationships when you don't really need one. heal yourself first. learn to be alone.
  11. first, stop repeating this dogma to yourself over and over. have you cut your arms and your legs off? have you lost your breathing capacity? are you breathing with the help of machines? have you lost your stomach and have your intestines stopped working? i don't think so. if you can eat, breathe, piss and poop regulardly, you have everything you need for a fresh start. post your daily schedule here, from the moment you wake up to the moment you go to sleep. then be ready for a few tweaks. change one thing at a time and be patient. the process of reconstruction will probably take longer than 1 year.
  12. i don't have personal experience with friendships that turn into romances. what i know is that people involved in these kinds of friendships usually realize that they can be good intimate partners very late.
  13. very good idea. i just wouldn't try to live off of its income. these kinds of initiatives usually run on very low working capitals.
  14. yes, your highness! it's so easy to tell pride from wisdom. so easy!
  15. purify your intentions anything if you have a pure heart, anything you do ends up contributing to society in a positive way. even making eye contact or just standing still in peace. the desire to start big is a common mistake. have you been able to live in peace with your family?
  16. @kieranperez thank you for your time here. i really hope that you do what said that you want to do. stand up, open your chest and walk as a real man!
  17. because people like to make a huge mess of teachings. "do nothing" is an ego shatterer technique for meditations. but you need the discipline to actually sit down and practice. enlightenment is not experienced with sloppiness.
  18. what do you mean by this? it means that the path is about your direct experience of enlightenment. stop idolizing what others say or experience.
  19. discipline yourself, focus and sharpen the mind; let go of intellectual pride... don't allow mental hickups to take over. they're not the goal; kill your buddhas, quit those videos that talk about awareness and enlightenment and live enlightenment at its core it's like an orgasm. once you know it exists, why waste time describing it? go and have one!
  20. i am doing this because i sense a good spark of sincerity in you. you've come quite far already, but beware not to get stuck and lose momentum. the mind is an endless maze of tricks. how does it feel to come here and start a thread full of articulate contemplations? do you feel smart? can you sense pride and desire for validation? you said that there would be no use for the actualized.org platform. what am i doing here, then? i am inviting you to go beyond, way beyond. reach the other shore of the shoreless river. gate gate paragate parasamgate bodhi swaha
  21. that's the attachment, then. would you have the courage to let it all go as well?
  22. @Aakash ah, there you go again. see you on the other side.
  23. @kieranperez thanks for notifying me. i'll certainly listen to the podcast. i understand what you feel and i agree. goggins has learned a tough way of dealing with himself... that's how he gets out of his mental trash. but it is also possible to live an AMAZING and disciplined life without all that flintiness. i even think it's his next step for development: learn about gracefulness and true peace of mind. thus, i invite you to have some compassion towards goggins. let's not demonize the guy.
