  1. I decided to do my N-Back training today outside during the sunset, and between my sets (where I have my 10-20 second breaks), I watched the sunset. Then after a while, I almost couldn't stop looking at the sunset, but I decided to use it as a carrot at the end of my sets and intentionally not look for the 2 or so minutes that each set lasts (and it actually increased my performance by a lot). And from one set to the next, the sunset looked a little different. The way the light filled the porch, the way the clouds had slightly moved and changed color, was a different experience each time. And then at the end of the exercise, I ended up finally just staring at the sunset for longer, now a while after the sun had passed the horizon. The increased focus from the N-Back training, now being directed effortlessly towards the sunset, left me with a sense of awe and peace. I then looked at some small birds flying quickly through the air; their movement was so smooth, their little bodies were so clear. I then noticed some other kinds of clouds that were forming slightly outside my field of view, so I walked a bit out on the porch to see more of them. Thunderstorm clouds were forming in the distance, and the grey color was intermixed with the yellow light from the sunset, creating a beautiful scene. Throughout this training session and while watching the sunset, I got the idea that specific aesthetic moods can feed your soul on the same level as a nutrient, and that the mental stability and vitality it brings is like fitting a key into a lock. So maybe watching the sunset, not necessarily while doing absolutely nothing, but inbetween doing something else, maybe reading something, could be something to try.
  2. Freedom from boredom, but you have to accept being absolutely bored. Start by sitting still with your eyes closed and notice the boredom and what it wants you to do. Instead of getting up and doing what the boredom wants you to do, tell yourself that you will be ok just sitting there. If that is hard, I made a small guide for meditating:
  3. Only if you make a YouTube channel where you partner with Infinite Waters and call it Infinite Sperm. And only make AI-generated content.
  4. What the hell is liberation except a long ass spiritual experience? How do you not connect the two?
  5. Beautiful guitar solo 12:44:
  6. If you're not open to transmission yourself, it's unlikely that you will be convinced just by showing examples. But this video came to mind. But if you are genuinely curious, look into it yourself. You have ChatGPT for god's sake.
  7. Lol. You also have to spend time on Enlightenment, which is money. The enlightened master has to have money so they can spend time on enlightening you. Do you want them to spend the most amount of time enlightening people or spend their time doing something else and less time enlightening people?
  8. I know the concept of transmission just breaks some people's minds and they can't get their head around it and they don't seem to experience it. But you can enlighten somebody through a picture. If your only interface with reality is your neurotic mind and you face a brick wall when it comes to anything energetic, of course you will distrust people who claim to do anything energetic. But then simply invoke the fact that you are ignorant instead of pretending like you're uncovering a conspiracy every time you talk about a semi-renowned spiritual person.
  9. A.k.a. undermining the importance of practice and the teachings that convey them? 🫢
  10. Even if I refrain from levying your own level of paranoia against you and assume you are being 100% accurate in your portrayal of the facts, taking money for services is not a proof against one being enlightened. You're engaging in conspiratorial thinking. "He is taking seemingly large amounts of money for a service => surely this must mean he is only in it for the money and his services have zero value and he has none of his alleged qualities". There is no necessary direct causal connection between these two things. There is a high degree of uncertainty between them, and you are playing on a high degree of suspicion and mistrust for your causal connection to become the most likely option.
  11. Raptorsin: "I want a transmission, here is a few dollars". Nahm: "Ok, glad to help". *Repeat many dozens of times over a large period of time* Breakingthewall: "That's a scam". You would think my gym is a scam if I showed you my last 10 years of expenses. Projecting narcissism everywhere is an interesting topic.
  12. Last time, I was stuck on a cottage at night where the option was less nutrients or more walnuts, and I had forgotten what walnuts tend to do. I actually like the taste of walnuts in my mouth, but I can't eat too much for my stomach. I don't like how large glucose spikes or large spikes of anything (e.g. caffeine, alcohol) make me feel, so I avoid most of those foods.
  13. Yes, but when this is the range (e.g. only 100g brazil nuts is around 3500% the RDA of selenium), it's not unexpected that many people would be eating foods regularly that many-folds their RDA of some nutrients. The carnivore diet is one glaring example. Add to that the fact that people disagree on various RDAs with many-fold margins (e.g. vitamin D, and in fact B vitamins) and that the real RDA can be doubled between e.g. a 100 lb person and a 200 lb person while most people simply read off the same RDA on the label, things definitely start to look muddy. But yes, definitely test yourself.
  14. 1. You know I said something very specific, "if you are already aiming at 100g"? And then I said if you are just a lousy fad-seeking nutritionally unaware vegan, your point is more valid? 2. We're definitely not talking just about chicken vs lamb. We're talking about chicken breast vs chicken thighs, drinking tea vs not drinking tea, eating high polyphenol foods vs not, the list goes on. Also, even if you eat meat, you can eat something like too much walnuts on the side (which I've done many times) and absolutely destroy your digestion of other things like minerals due to the phytic acid (and your stomach generally feels like absolute shit). If you want a diet with sub-single percentage nutritional precision, you have to research literally all the biochemicals and all the nutritional profiles of literally everything you eat.
