This is my YouTube feed now 😂 but they're interesting documentaries. 

Edit: uggg, I couldn't watch that Cambodia one to the end 😣 you know these child abusers are so convinced it's sickening. Why are the victims so quiet and the abusers so loud? Even in prison. This pedophiles can't look beyond themselves. 

Imagine living in a world where you genuinely believe that 'children fall in love with you' and that you're the victim of some witch hunt because you adopted and abused a 4 year old Cambodian girl. This guy will fight to defend this worldview to the death.

@Leo Gura, you must be joking. Just yesterday I was at 3am awake cause I could not sleep, thinking about the hand gazing exercice from What is actuality video and it came to me the famous Zen koan about the finger pointinfto the moon and I was like " Why to use the whole hand, One Finger is enough. If one can know the Ultimate Truth of one finger, Infinity in One finger. 

Than you post this

@Leo Gura Can you elaborate a bit on this one? In what sense do you mean it? People who know me also know that I exist, right?

Do you mean that all the people I know who would tell me that I exist, are all happening in my subjective experience, and I only have my own subjective experience as literal truth, so I can't depend on others.

Is that quote really grapsable without grasping the real nature of others?

I seem to be in the center of my subjective experience. Everything is percieved in relation to me. Since it's always been like that, there's a backgroud sense that automatically assumes that it's "my" experience.

Not sure how to answer that differently.
