Solipsism is actually not totally true

It seems to me like you have another theory which I would love to adopt as a counter theory. Is there another reason people commit suicide other than the one I have mentioned?

That's not what I want to do here. You need to have insight into this. Just reading the conversation that proceeded above I can see reason isn't enough to convince you. 

You need to investigate your beliefs and reasoning. How you came to this conclusion. 

 

 


It is far easier to fool someone, than to convince them they have been fooled.

The subject of solipsism isnt you, its God.

God = Infinity.

Your solipsism is Gods nature. Just like your intelligence is.

Eye roll.

Disappointing, but not unexpected.

Have a look into:

- Causal claims 

- Universal generalisations

- Testing beliefs against counterexamples

I am TIRED of trying to just live my life and then have people annoy my mind with "oh but why is there something rather than nothing? What is solipiscism? What is the nature of this pen?" Bro for real, does this add to your happiness or is this just a coping mechanism to cope with unmet needs? This isn't even true spiritual progression!

For the vast majority, it's coping, fa sho.

How happy, easy-going, light-hearted, worry-free, and secure in one's survival is the average AO member? It's probably lower than average. I agree that this flavor of spirituality doesn't really do much to increase those things. Happiness is not to be found here. It's more about addiction to insight, and the effect or the utility of the insight is rarely even considered because the striving for and deriving the insight is the point.

What if this is just fascination + identity + seriousness being inflated into universal importance?

There's only one way to develop critical thinking: having eaten and gotten enough sleep FIRST. Basic human needs are still the most fundamental thing ever. There is NO arguing against this. I have had anxiety attack strong enough to KNOW that life is IMPOSSIBLE without having security and without having peace through having fundamental human needs properly met. There is NO WAY to do anything else here in physical life without having this secured.

People just have to admit they are monkeys with needs. Just admit it. You're unhappy to the degree that your needs are unmet.🥰

If you're unhappy just look at what is the developmental need you have been deprived of in this society that fundamentally doesn't care about your growth, go after it, meet it. Be satisfied. Be happy.

This is interesting.

Then what is your theory on:

  1. Why transcendence is a human need
  2. Why its not distributed equally

I'd argue that most people mess up both questions, including people that think they're good at answering them, so don't be too hard on yourself, its just an exercise for yourself to learn from if you want.

The vast majority of people who want "transcendence" are people in pain who have decided they can't do anything about it. They're hopeless about their pain. And so they're like yeah lemme transcend this crap. It's quite sad. It's like passive suicide. I know cuz I've been there/am there.

Trasncendence in its purest form would be something like being more spiritual, I guess?

The distinction between being thirsty and actually enjoying water.

There's other demographics as well just remember that.

But being more spiritual is different from being an armchair philosopher creating distractions with topics like solipicism and some other metaphysical topics.

But is this not a demographic too?

Every demographic is learning. 

That process though is a different subject to being annoyed with a particular way someone tries for transcendence, or seeks to teach others a similar path.

The same person can have many different styles, influences and actions too. 

It's wise to identify when one is getting taken away by one perspective over another outside of just merely chatting and debating about it however.

@Thought Art
Even if solipisim is true it doesn't matter at all. Why do you care? There is only one thing which matter: your well being and of the people around you. How does it benefit you or the people around you to care about solipicism? It doesn't benefit anyone. It doesn't even benefit your spiritual progression because spiritual progression is emotional and solipisism does nothing...

eat shit sleep and socialize is 100% everything life is about, day and night everyday every second of the day 24/7

Well, that’s not relevant really to what I said but thanks. Solipsism isn’t about if or not it benefits you or your family it is not intended to be a utilitarian contemplation but one of truth seeking. The question isn’t if it’s useful but if it’s true.

I think the need for coherence is a basic human need. It goes under "mental" needs. I created a map for this.

What you call needs, how to meet them, and how to understand them in a larger systematic perspective, is what terms like "meaning", "holism", etc., is about. Thinking about these things can help you a long way in getting your needs met. Because you have a need for thinking about things, and it's part in knowing how to navigate and get those needs met.

Solipsism is just one necessary phase of life that you go through in this realm, nobody is even saying it has to be that way once you see through it. The limits are literally imaginary can be whatever you want. God isn't just some mechanical crystallization of your own mind, there's actually a being on the other side of it. And as they say, if you can make an atom that's no more difficult than making a universe.

Even psychedelics and all substances are literally placebo, they show you some truth and allow for a higher bandwidth of communication with God, but that's simply because you allow it to be that way in your mind. There's nothing stopping you from bringing the afterlife to you right now. You can literally rewrite the rules of your life, change history, see the future and fate of everyone around you, and quite literally do whatever you want. God made it so that you have limited knowledge for a reason - you couldn't really have a human life if you knew everything. Whatever humanity thinks it knows about God, is just a blip on a desert island. No matter how crazy of visuals you're seeing on a trip, that's literally always just visual content within your imagination and not actually representative of the actual truth.

God made it so that communicating with incarnations in other timelines is impossible - not by some rule written down somewhere, but by absolute tautology. Literally the concept of a biological being is something totally unprecedented and only exists in this dimension. Think about how unbelievably profound that is. Not only that but you can literally raise people from the dead, that never existed, so to speak. This is gonna sound crazy but God literally can make it to where other people literally become conscious through you and experience what it's like to be you through your eyes. That's profound love. But the kicker is they actually have their own sovereign consciousness at the same time. I'm telling you guys. The rules can be rewritten.

The philosopher's stone is real. Leo, I will make you conscious one day. Mark my words.

@Meeksauce You guys like to spew bullshit a lot.

Without psychedelics solipsism is relegated to philosophy only, to the realm of thought exclusively.

I think Dave knows solipsism, and he hasn't done psychedelics yet.

You don't need psychedelics and they cant get you all the way there anyway.

What they offer is a glimpse of what is available to the faithful.

You're funny, I like you too.

Solipsism and radical nonduality are probably quite similar.

And Leo says you're imagining everyone.
