  1. Past hour
  2. Plenty of good and bad audiobooks that have varying degrees of accuracy in the opinions they put forth. A warlord is a political leader who derives his authority from his military forces as opposed to other institutional powers also known as a military dictatorship depending on how wide of a region he controls. Mohammad's actions of imperial expansion into the Arabian Peninsula and the Maghreb make him both a military dictator and a warlord.
  3. Yes understanding the history of religious wars in Europe and the middle east helps us understanding a lot of what religion is about : shaping society and control. Not so much the comic book control from a place of grandiosity but more about creating a stable paradigm for society where violence is monopolized by the state and upstarts can't easily wrestle power away from them. Understanding the Catholic Church as the more advanced successor to the Roman Empire is a key insight in seeing how this has unfolded throughout our species. Islam being its main competitor just like China is opposing the west today. Two different cultures, ethnicities and systems of governance fighting for hegemony.
  4. Maybe you are right or maybe this is something an immature fool would say? Who knows! I'm not claiming to be wise or mature. I wonder what your 50 year old self would want to say to your current self.
  5. I've been wanting to try a gambit for a while, print a t shirt that says "I eat pussy better than any lesbian" or something funny like that and see if it gets a lot of chicks to approach. I think not taking yourself seriously and having fun when you go out can be a secret weapon. It's not part of my regular game but I think it would be funny to try out, usually I just dress well and go for a direct opener to hook quickly or go to the next set if one particular girl isn't interested.
  6. Sorry, not my style. I'm not trying to be carnival character. Use humor and your words, you can be interesting without dressing and acting like a clown.
  7. So you just contemplate on these topics for so long? Do you read any literature, if you had to pick top 10 books you've ever read, what would they be? You have an unussual way of thinking and I'm looking to further my knowledge and just read a lot in general; I still have books I've had recommended from other people in here waiting in the queue so to speak, I've never forgotten about them or these people. Just wondering what kind of stuff you read
  8. The main idea is to be interesting and learn to hook strangers attention quickly in a chaotic environment like a busy street or a club. That's why the better or more striking you look the more you have an advantage as well as if you have a good opener that makes for interesting conversation since they'll give you like 2-3 seconds before you register as a boring stranger annoying them if your opener and frame is not on point.
  9. He's 27 but does it really matter? Some of the founding fathers were in their early 20s and wrote more beautiful and profound things than most people of any age.
  10. Seems like his critique about IFS is that it's an inherently disintegrating and fragmenting theory. Fair enough argument. Perhaps at higher stages integration is more appropriate. Developed people can hold more than one theory in their head at one time. Both IFS and a more integrated theory (like SD) can be true at the same time because some people can benefit from integration while other may benefit from deconstruction.
  11. Jeff the yogu What is time, And can you be w/ nature, the birds and the bees, the body, the trees, and can you see what everything is, or forget and see to what truly is? Or is there something to see, a war to be freed from, and more and more and more, what do we seek, What is time when its 'let be, That time w/ eyes closed, heart so wide, whatever it may be on the other side. You'll see into air like time's flare, illumination stare from every direction you care. Its just a poem i wrote to illustrate the video. p.s. avidya was one of my names on another account, tho i just didnt use it much, suffice to say it communicated that side to this idea thats hard to describe, even tho im not a big sanskrit guy, theres avidya and a few terms we could def use
  12. You can have many life partners, if you'd only like one that your personal desire not a reality of how a lot of human beings arrange their life on this planet. I think understanding the nuance in dating and that the one true way is not a realistic holy grail to find, it's more of a learning a bit of everything from how other humans shape their life and having the self-awareness and willpower to build a beautiful masterpiece in your life from all that you've learned from others.
  13. That's why I could not finish watching it.
  14. As we know there are a lot of models do deal with the inner work. IFS is one of them. This video talks about the nuance using this models. Also, for many guys here,me included, the work of this guy can be a very good go for ego development. Yes, because while you dont realize God what you are going to do? INTEGRATION. with no integration this work becomes very swallow. So check it This guy have a body of work very complete.
  15. I don’t care to see any human being naked. I only want to witness GOD/LOVE naked, raw, intelligent, radiant, and SELF-ILLUMINATING.
  16. Today
  17. To make something not fun, fun can require a lot of effort.
  18. The difference between strong men and weak men is that strong men do not wait for women to want to sleep with them to have sex. They create the opportunities themselves by focusing on approaching women in big quantities. Hence getting laid whenever they want consistenly.
  19. The number one reason I smoke cigarettes is stress-management.

  21. don’t forget that god is precisely what it is right now, not what we want it to be
