  1. Past hour
  2. I can only imagine
  3. One can never know another one. Only One. Only the Lonely. One without a second. It’s lonely at the top. Better among the bottom feeders, the big ass club that absolutely resists having itself as a member.
  4. Come on! They can't be weirder than Sadhguru.
  5. No
  6. Too much conformity becomes harmful, and that’s exactly what school often turns into. There are more downsides than benefits. You’re right that everyone goes through a conformist phase, but school is far too restrictive to give students any real room to breathe. It creates more stress than freedom.
  7. It’s not abuse because a healthy society needs rules. School is abuse because it limits consciousness with false claims and teaches obedience instead of questioning. It’s not healthy. The fixed schedules for when to wake up and when to stop aren’t natural, and the system isn’t adapted to human needs.
  8. Outside/ Inside… where is that? The boundaries are nonexistent. There is no gap of non existence.
  9. @Monster Energy Really? Even if the woman was a child molester?
  10. Girls who ride motorcycles have my respect.

  11. Smoking is dumber than you think

    @integral That's why I never ever smoked a cigerette in my life ,I mean I didn't even touched it . I think that people smoke to avoid or run away from negative emotions. In order to look cool they avoid suffering going through which is a strength in itself. Yesterday I was feeling bad due to a girl rejected me romantically in college in the past but I embraced it and a smile returned to my face for 2 times amidst suffering . Later the suffering was gone. By suffering I mean that I was reactively angry .
  12. This. @Majed I drive a motorcycle ☹️
  13. It's not stereotypically feminine.

    Have you seen images of his place? The FOIL @integral post that shit boy. OWN IT
  15. The river flowing to the ocean source is a constant seamless flux of source to source. There’s no break in symmetry. There’s no ‘I’ getting caught in the eddies or making grinding noises in an effort to resist the flow by means of stopping to find or look for it. Life is already and always is as fluid, never solid, effortlessly carving its way through any obstruction and doesn’t need an ‘I’ to function. There’s no observer named ‘I’ watching itself. There’s simply empty looking upon empty concepts as this artificial conception. There’s no one writing these words. One is writing these words, there’s no other one. No one reading these words, One is reading these words, there is no other one.
  16. My dude, we are going to need a bubble for you to live in soon.
  17. You mean of the self? The self is the speaker in me. The self is foundation for experiential distinction between both you & I. Fundamental duality of self/other, subject/object. That is what you point towards? I agree that self is capable of being quite an obstacle.
  18. Holy shit, maybe it's an INTJ type trait ? I think you are INTJ, if I am not mistaken. I resisted all parts of schooling constantly 'I won't do this unless I see why, or where I can apply it'. I paid no attention and disregarded a lot of subjects for this reason. My grades were atrocious. Until one day my Dad sat down with me and gave me the hard words. That even though I didn't see a use for what I was being taught, later on in life much of it would apply, I was just too ignorant and young to understand this. I needed to trust him, he said. My Dad is an engineer and construction manager. He taught me all about electrical work and low voltage DC circuits when younger (I learned PC building and software form him). I listened to him, because he knew his shit. He had applied knowledge I could see manifest in reality in concrete, tangible ways. He and my Grandfather were the only two family members I would listen to. At around 14 years old I decided I better learn this shit. Skipped a grade and was throttled into accelerated specialist, methods and general maths. Completed high school level maths in year 10. So I had only half load for my final 2 years prior to graduation. All my teachers, prior to applying myself, were trying to hold me back and concerned I had retarded development. I was just an arrogant, pig headed INTJ who thought I was being forced into rubbish schooling that had no application 🤣🤣🤣 But it's a good case for minors needing guidance from parents. Neglect can be it's own abuse. @Carl-Richard great insights and foods for contemplation 🥰
  19. The pointer… aka brain mind mechanism can point to everywhere but itself because there is no self at its core base source. The self is an emergent built for predicting (Not Self-Reflection) The primary function of the brain is to predict future events and manage the body (allostasis), using past experiences to create an internal model of the world. It is not designed to understand its own biological mechanisms. A model of the world is not the world it is a representation born of perception, it’s a synthetic simulation, not real. The world isn’t out there, the world is contingent upon consciousness. No consciousness, no world. While consciousness is obviously known to be, consciousness can never know what consciousness is because there’s nothing outside or beyond it to measure or study it. Consciousness can never step outside of its own arena to get a peek up its own skirt. Consciousness remains forever a mystery even to itself…. Every thing else is just the linguistic contents of consciousness. Consciousness doesn’t have any requirement or need to know itself, that would be like the content of consciousness trying to look for consciousness, it’s absurd.

    @Carl-Richard relevant Are your farts sterile?

  22. Novel Recommendations

    Natasha Tori Maru replied to Erol's topic in Personal Development -- [Main]

    @Erol Pleasure 😁 The meaty discussion that ensued was mighty entertaining - and lead to some new novels for myself to feast on. Enjoy!
  23. You have to mix that shit with sexual tension. Dancing monkey is mostly for yourself to get in a fun, relaxed, playful state.
  24. I think you should be feeling in your body like you are going down the highway with the windows down.
  25. Looking doesn’t know what it’s pointing to or looking at, or looking from, or what’s looking. Looking is an abstract idea pointing to abstract intangible ideals. No thing knows itself. Infinity, or absolute are known abstract ideas that know nothing. An idea is known, but never tangibly seen. “Omniscience” is a relative idea of something it claims is infinite and absolute. Relative ideas are never an omniscient knowing because of the cessation of knowledge problem upon the ultimate, eventual, unavoidable demise of the finite mind and body mechanism. There’s no one here to know anything because infinity is inconceivable… except in this conception, the arising of a known knower that knows nothing. Infinity can never tell itself it’s infinite because it doesn’t have a self, it’s a synthetic construct.
