  1. Lmao, do you think that would ease people's minds about accountability? User feedback is important.
  2. One person said I give out warning points willy-nilly while I actually only gave 2 warning points out of 17 that were given by 4 other moderators. Another person said I'm a bad mod without elaborating. You said I'm ideological. That's it.
  3. Mods are used to people regularly disagreeing with their decisions.
  4. @CultivateLove I'm not going to keep derailing the thread with you. Sorry if I made you feel bad by attacking you.
  5. It's literally against the guidelines to use multiple accounts. You also used it to avoid post restriction on your main account
  6. My interactions with you were initiated by multiple member reports about breaking the guidelines and I happened to agree. If you disagree with my assessment, then realize that you're not the first one to be confronted by a mod about such matters.
  7. You have 17 warning points from 5 different mods, 2 of them were from me.
  8. A list of definitions doesn't do anything if you don't have the experiential reference points to understand them. To give the impression that you can speak clearly about these things has an element of double bind. Here is the problem behind all confusion in spirituality: it's about an experience, and what you get from teachers in the form of words is never that. It doesn't matter if it's God-realization or non-duality.
  9. If Connor Murphy is a spiritual teacher then I was a spiritual teacher when I was 19 ?
  10. Ok.
  11. @Scholar Good conversation. Dan joking about Destiny and Ana made my day
  12. INFP Use it to discover yourself, not limit yourself.
  13. In a larger context, it isn't. It always leads to "you don't understand, you have to experience it." To give the impression that you can speak clearly about these things has an element of double bind.
  14. The God-realization talk has the same dynamic as the Neo-Advaita talk: it's all just pointers that don't make sense without an experiential reference point. In some sense, talking in riddles is a more consistent way of communicating this fact.
  15. The main criticism can be found at 8:46:
  16. I'm talking about Leo.
  17. Do you ever feel that you have trouble being understood yourself?
  18. On that topic, even so-called good evidence is limited:
  19. Well yeah, that hearkens back to earlier critiques. Some of it, not all of it. If you're going through the hassle to bring up studies in the first place, you better bring out the good stuff.
  20. Also, if you're used to 10-20 minutes, it doesn't hurt to take it step by step: 25, 30, 35, 40, 45 etc.
  21. Tell me your thoughts about how others exist and tell me how others exist beyond thought.
  22. One sit a day is enough unless you absolutely want to do more
  23. Continuous. The 45 minute mark is where the fun happens.
