If we all go ahead and blaze through here like space rockets there'll be nothing left of course. 

Space cadet.

People will also believe and cling onto anything before God.

Astrology, Tik Tok level of sophistication New Age beliefs, EvOluTioN and sCienCe (as if they were mutually exclusive), their own veneer of intellect and a sense of intellectual superiority.

This is me here desperately trying to refrain from a retreat back into gross distraction.

Can we talk about visions or something?

You guys have any weird visions come to you ever?

I suppose these words may be quite the strange one for some.

@No1Here2c What do you mean, specifically.

I'm extremely intuitive and feeling/emotion driven so I am very prone to inspiration and driven by narrative and purpose. 

In that sense, yes. 

[No1Here2c]

@PenguinPablo

I mean like

Full on

Transcendental Visions

[No1Here2c]

Or I suppose that is where the language really begins to really break down. Hard to talk about such things isnt it?

Silly human

@No1Here2c Both... 

Yes, I think it is a bit of both.

Like when people say people can read each other's minds, or existence of God, etc... materialist will scoff at such ideas.

Yet, these abilities and realizations are on a spectrum.

Certain folk have the full blown thing.

And many others have milder forms of such abilities and perceptions, yet a hardcore scientist type would ignore the correlation or not consider it rigorous enough.

I think it gets a bit muddy for sure.

[PenguinPablo]

@No1Here2c And yes how one chooses to interpret such things is highly contingent upon cultural upbringing, personal beliefs and biases, and so on and so forth. 

One of my childhood friends says he will have dreams regularly and they will occur in real life within a short period of time. 

Lot of schizophrenia in his family also as well as ADHD and very high IQ.

India is so backward they won't fix that rape culture in 100 years.

Whats your evidence that india's rape culture is higher than other 3rd world countries - outside of individual analogies?

Of course sexual abuse is rampant across the 3rd world and even America.

But India is extra toxic. It's baked into the culture there.

I ain't focusing on India alone. I will post sexual abuse from any country. I don't care where or who it is. I can post sexual abuse videos for a month straight.

What makes it baked into the culture there relative to other 3rd world countries?

Hey Leo about your wealth funding higher consciousness post, how would we balance the pursuit of higher consciousness with just ordinary funseeking?

Also, I was wondering in our 20s when we get survival handled, then in our 30s we hopefully get our spirituality handled - like getting our goals of enlightenment, God-Realization, etc - how are we meant to live the rest of our lives.

You said because you did survival work in your 20s and spiritual work in your 30's you can just coast off it for the rest of your life. Are we lessening the intensity of both and trying to enjoy life more? Are we going deeper into spirituality since that is the highest form of happiness?

I'm only 6 months out of high school and I wanna know how I'll spend the rest of my past those two points of achievement.

[Leo Gura]

@Magnanimous That's so individual. You have to discover what you want out of life.

My values are not necessarily right for you.

But how are we measuring extra?

India doess have those problems. But i also think that so does every country in a similar gdp/capita level? I'm not really getting why/how it's any worse

I need relative stats. Not buying it
