  2. Yes you are right
  4. AI is over hyped
  5. Good question! I thought you were in control of yourself.
  6. OMG why do I bother!!!
  7. Here’s Bernadette Roberts’ perspective on this: "We go deeper when we strive to follow Christ by living his first commandment — love God above all things, above all people, above nature and, above all, love God above ourselves. Unfortunately many people settle for the second commandment — love your neighbor as yourself — which in and of itself goes round in circles and has no need of God at all. Self-love is incapable of true love of neighbor; it may even be bad for him. Furthermore, self-love can never reach Christ's ultimate challenge of loving our enemies or those who do bad things to us. We cannot begin to understand the second commandment until we have come to the unitive state and thereby mastered the first commandment. The unitive state gives us the ability to see God in others with the same eye by which we see God in ourselves; thus what we love in others is the same God we love in ourselves. This love bypasses the whole phenomenal self or the person that appears, be he good, bad or indifferent. So before we can truly follow the second commandment, we must first have mastered the first commandment which means that true love of neighbor is impossible until we first love God above our neighbor and our self."

    CALL ME A HYPOCRITE, BUT I JUST COULDN'T RESIST THE PEDS IM BOLD NOW, AND I CAN REALLY FUCKING RELATE TO LEO GURU BUT IT ALSO MADE MY COCK MASSIVE MERRY CHRISTMAST BITCHES
  10. I feel this way too,, Since I work around the retail industry, not in it but around it, I see the ploys they do to make ppl spend $$.. Xmas for me when I was young was about Santa Claus and getting stuff, yes we went to midnight mass on Xmas eve, but that was really the only religious aspect of it which lasted an hour..the rest of the time its about enjoying the gifts and spending time with family.. Its like this will all holidays now, its turned into corporate takeovers and how to make us spend money, name the holiday name the sale going on... The most important thing for everyone in the world is that they are Alive, if they were not Alive within a Moment in Time, nothing would matter, and that happens every moment of existence as long as you are alive, no one day is more important than any other, if it is it is culturally conditioned into You!

  11. The Solved podcast is great

    Rigel replied to enchanted's topic in Personal Development -- [Main]

    I enjoyed it. The bar is so low with podcasts in general that they definitely stick out in a good way. It’s not as great & complete as they claim though. It can’t be, that’s just marketing crap. But it’s good.

  13. Talking LSD with James Cameron

    RisingLane replied to RisingLane's topic in Psychedelics

    Yeah, it’s bad. I was hoping to be one of the rare few who’d actually love this movie, but nope.
  15. I didn't mean kill as something you should be worried about. Of course complete death and unconditional love is very very scary to me as well. But there is no rush. Kill your ego slowly (Don't harm your body). Slowly work towards the realization that you are the universe. Unveil you ego step by step until you find there is nothing left. That is what I meant by love.
  16. I am you lol
  17. What is "you"? What are you? What is self? isnt it a differentiation from things that are not self? Love is the realization that the differentiation is false. that it is an illusion. That you are equally a book as much as you are your body. If you become everything in the universe, isnt that the death of your egoistic little self? I dont mean your body stops breathing. What I mean is differentiation between your body and surroundings will stop. Death is much more a egotistical phenomenon than it is physical
  18. You first... and Please don't derail the message of this thread, if You don't like it go somewhere else please and thanks!!
  19. Don't Love, Love will Kill You you said lol!!
  20. How does Loving Everyone Kill You?? I don't get this sort of understanding? Love is a Sweet Emotion, it releases healthy chemistry in Your Body, the more Loving You feel within Yourself the better.. Hate or Indifference/numbness does the opposite, its unhealthy for Body and MInd...! Being to Egoic is self absorption, which is anti Love, too Love Yourself is sort of narcissistic in my book!

  22. New Chapter in My Life: Habits and Disciplines

    Spiritual Warrior replied to Spiritual Warrior's topic in Self-Actualization Journals

    Habits and Disciplines Journey Entry #54 I am not easily impressed by people nowadays. I look around at all of these insecure and unhappy and unexpressive faces and I think to myself, what have you been doing with your time here on Earth? How have you not dealt with this yet? How are you still working a job that you hate? Why are you settling for mediocrity? I want to help these people more than anything.. And at the same time work on myself... so that I can teach with integrity. I must also remember that I came from the exact that place as them, I was insecure, I was unhappy, I was unexpressive. I see myself in them, but I climbed out the gutter and made it out to the other side. It took a while too and I had A LOT of help, you cannot forget that; Leo, former and current bosses, parents, family members, friends, authors of every book that you've read.. all of these people have helped form you into this magnificent version of yourself. 12.24.25 Morning routine goals: Brush teeth streak: 56 Floss streak: 5 Shower streak: 27 Meditation streak: 0 Funniness free talk exercise: 5 Sexual abundance affirmation: 5 Night time routine goals: Brush teeth streak: 0 Wash face streak: 0 No electronics before bed streak: 1 "Whole day" goals: No porn streak: 5 No ejaculation streak: 5 Eat 150 g of protein streak: 5 No alcohol streak: 54 No smoking weed streak: 10 Weekly Goals: Weight lift 5 days a week streak: 0 Monday: chest Tuesday: legs Wednesday: push ups and pull ups Thursday: legs Friday: back
  23. What are some Tier 2 forms of media that you have come across? It may be a series, game , movie, music, anime, comics, novel etc. I recently came across this song and have cherished it ever since. Would love if I find some other conscious media that I can enjoy.
  24. How can loving be easy? loving means to die at least to some degree. If you loved your neighbor and then loved your neighbor's neighbor and eventually loved everyone and everything then you would cease existing. Your existence is defined by lack of love. The less you love the bigger your ego, the bigger your self. Do you think unconscious beings would choose to love, knowing that it would literally kill their unconsciousness, it would kill their greed, their pride, their attachments to everything in the world. No! they would rather preserve their essence, their fantasy and their delusions. To most people, higher degree of love is threatening. Why would a self seek their one demise? To really love, you need a very translucent sense of self. Which most people don't have.
  25. Today
  26. One of the Essential Teachings of Jesus is to Love Thy Neighbor. but that is not what is happening in the World.. People today Love someone Long Dead, 100's or 1000's of Years ago Dead, more than the Person beside them Alive and Well Today, why is That? People Idolize the past sometimes, I do this too, I luv'd being a Kid, I got everything I wanted, Life was Innocent, I was mostly totally Free, then I grew up lol! So People look back with rose colored glasses sometimes, but cannot see the Brilliance of where Life is which is NOW! Good Message here on this essential teaching from Jesus!
