In an absolute sense, you're not separate from God. It may seem that you are separate right now, but that is only a relative separation. When you identify with your relative self, you will feel separate. Find your way back to your absolute self and reclaim yourself as God. All distinctions, all separations, all "others" are made up by your own imagination. You're God imagining it all. Free will is a made-up concept. What is it that is truly not made up? It's God.

He needs to transcend his fear of unreality and insanity. His latest trip report revolved around that. He talks a lot about self-transcendence but he doesn't know what it really entails.

It's his "beliefs/intentions matter" individualist doctrine in action . Noam Chomsky is a filthy collectivist.

But is it really a line or is it just a certain configuration of molecules?

I actually haven't either, but I guess I mean "angry undertones" on a more intellectual level rather than an emotional. For example, you can say this with a smooth Sam Harris voice and not sound angry, but if you just read it on its own, it does come off slightly angry:

Sam's worldview is tainted by an individualist interpretation of the world (psychology, biology - beliefs, genetics) contrasted with a collectivist interpretation (sociology, history - material conditions). It's a form of stage orange paradigm lock, and it's why he likes to fight with the "identitarian, collectivist left". A main belief that demonstrates this (and is the background of his dislike of religion, particularily Islam) is that "people's actions are primarily explained by the beliefs they hold". Not surprisingly, his PhD thesis was about how different beliefs affect the brain: https://cosmosmagazine.com/society/brain-according-sam-harris/ This "beliefs matter" stance is why he thinks Islam is such a huge problem, why it's very important to talk about stuff like racial differences in IQ, why he is pro-Israel (hint: they're not muslims) and generally pro-America ("intentions matter"). It's all seen through an individualist lens. Let's also not forget that his whole career was built on his reaction to 9/11, when America was attacked by none other than Islamic terrorists; a time filled with fear, anger and hatred. It should be very clear why he has these angry undertones when talking about certain groups of people.

That is actually not a line. It's actually a dotted line if you look closely.

Cool! Where?

Sadhguru is a walking god. I don't understand what people are talking about. Just take some time just watching him move, speak, breathe. It's truly marvelous what he is capable of and the Being that he radiates.

You're basing your reality on a sample of primate sensory apparatuses that were limited by evolution to perceive fitness payoffs. Your whole experience of the world is shaped by the game of survival and reproduction. You didn't evolve to see the world "just as it is", but you evolved to see the world in a way that is beneficial for your survival. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Donald_D._Hoffman You're actually not able to perceive things that are not either beneficial or relevant for your survival. You're not perceiving a world; you're perceiving an user interface. If an alien came to earth, it's not a given that he would even be able to see the Eifel Tower. Even so, distinctions made within that user interface are still relative and fictional. "Eifel Tower" is a culturally constructed concept. "You" and "me" is a concept. You need to be able to differentiate between conceptual constructs and raw experience. The moment you start making distinctions, you're now constructing concepts that only put labels on your experience. Raw experience is raw experience.

If you have problems with insomnia, seek professional help, or atleast stay in touch with people who care about you.

I made this one some time ago but it's not a good one (not very instructive ):

What?

Classic example of conflating the relative with the absolute. I'm going to make a meme now.

Ok. Make your own topic though.

You fear what you're not used to. It's the most primal fear. The argument you have provided is nothing but an ego defense mechanism. Ok, but you still have to talk to women to sleep with them, many times over. Who are these people? Did they not talk to girls?

This is the guy who taught Gordon Ramsay how to cook. In the beginning he talks about his early life where blue was the dominant force in his life. An incredible storyteller, well-spoken and wise man:

Yeah, it has absolutely nothing to do about the desire to blow your load...

Green is generally ok with criminals being punished in one way or another. That is one form of government force.

This is a mischaracterization of green. This is instead excess of libertarianism. Green generally supports the use of force when it's justified. That's why riots exist.

You're underestimating orange's ability to rationalize its own abhorrent decisions.

You can understand this fact without exploiting it or embracing it on a moral level.

Meditation changed me forever. You shouldn't really stop meditating though (even though I did).
