This subject might be a bit harsh but I had to ask myself this question for years - why are we bound to save other people, even when they want to die (clinical death, suicide, etc) ? Moreover, as a medic/ nurse/ assistant - why are those people try to save their patients with all means even when there is evidence that by having a heart beating, the patient will be just in a vegetative state for more years to come and suffering. Also, this goes for the elderly who, by saving their lives, the rest might be just a nightmare. If I am GOD and by ending up this dream I go back to light then why won't you let me do it? NOTE: - I am not suicidal or depressed and I don't promote any self-harm behaviour - but I cannot find anyone to talk about this question with an open mind. Thanks Alex

This is gold Thank you @Ryan R for taking the time to clarify those things. Much appreciated.

@Jodistrict Firstly,sorry about your loss. Secondly, those types of cases are the one that puzzle me, and I have been in similar situation with my grandmother which was taken to hospital multiple times only to suffer more at home afterwards. Why are we willing to push some to live a bit more in suffering than to live them die peacefully ? Were do we derive this moral from? Or it's more an feeling of attachment and unwilling to let it go? I think that "playing God" is already putting pressure on the medical and economical system and eventually on the younger generation to come and sustain all this system.

@Loba I found that usually people who are afraid to talk about this subject are very egocentric and stuck in their survival mode, hence mentioning death will mean the end of what they are fighting for day by day. Obviously, I consider myself lucky to find out about this work and psychedelics and I have to understand that not everyone is ready to have this kind of discussions. Cool song and please let us know more about your thoughts upon this subject. @The_Truth_Seeker I've done a quick search before posting but couldn't find anything so please link you thread if you have it Cheers

Thank you @universe & @Ryan R It really helped me to get more understanding on this subject. I wasn't aware of "Living WIll" so I will have to have a look at it. At the moment I am running in circles with suicide and free will/ determinism. I have to go deeper on the free will subject to understand it and then come back and analyse the suicide aspect of it before spiral into conception/abortions/ morality... A lot of great stuff around here. Thanks again

Ok, you know to make the difference between hardcore techno and house and pop music. But what's French house or UK garage, Pendulum and Brostep? Guys, if you are passionate about music and want to know more about different genres, their history and listen to a couple of examples, I found out this great site https://music.ishkur.com/# Ishkur's guide to electronic music is a nice pedigree tree-style organised site that guides you through lot's of music genres and can be a lot of fun to learn which musical style branch from which musical background. I was looking for something like this for a while. I hope you enjoy it and forgive me if this was posted before but I could find no return using the forum search function.

FIRE :))

Congratulations and thank you ?

How do you deal with the overabundance of information? How do you prevent yourself on running into the rabbit hole when you collect/verify information or just reading a good book which suggests you another 10 awesome books? What is your process of collecting, then applying the information/knowledge on a daily/weekly or monthly basis? Descent of Gurdjieff ?

It's all this thing with superfoods just hype at the end? What are your thoughts about this?

@elsiewil What you eat influence the decision making process and the system of beliefs that you create for yourself

Just found this and want to share it with you

I think both of them are lies that point you to the truth ? And the old advice in case you have too much safrole - sharing is caring ...

I think you are right here. In order for the mdma to take the form of a pill it has to blend with other chemicals to take its desired shape, colour and logo ? So it's a drug like a lie and meditation like truth?

Many people are experimenting With the drug ecstasy I heard you say once That a lie is sweet in the beginning And bitter in the end And the truth is bitter in the beginning And sweet in the end I have been meditating But I don't have experience as people report From the drug ecstasy Is a drug like a lie And meditation the truth Or am I missing something That could really help me?

Hello guys/gals How do you draw the distinction between knowledge and opinion? How do you quantify or qualify something as knowledge? Can I have an opinion on anything just by picking side A or side B and giving the impression that I am knowledgeable? Looking forward for your opinions ?lol Cheers

@JosephKnecht So knowledge, in your opinion, is tangible, applicable, that can be proven, right? What about Philosophy or mystical experiences - do those qualify as knowledge? For sure, philosophy can help you become more knowledgeable by engaging the thought process. @Leo Gura What's your opinion on this topic?

@Zigzag Idiot Dude I am happy that you make it out ? It might sound ridiculous but sometimes when you are cornered and you don't know anything how to move forward, there's someone there willing to help you, you know... I've been closed to join, lucky me, I have watched some documentaries about and say pass when I have been called for their testing ...

Anything.... Wrong? ??

Hey I was wondering where does that silver line lay, between being a gentleman and a people pleaser? On the same token, what makes a lady, a lady? Gracias

Awesome, thank you all for your interesting replies and advice. Happy actualization
