  1. Past hour
  2. I'm thinking of a higher purpose as at the ontological metaphysical level. If there is a higher purpose that isn't just to exist or to experience this life, then... It really puts a lot of pressure on you. lol
  3. Flavio Bolsonaro flees to U.S. after losing Brazil election
  4. I think your trying to separate meaning and existence, but that doesn't make sense because existence is the most meaningful thing that could ever happen. Existence and meaning co-arise ontologically. But there is ontological meaning and relative everyday meaning making. And these are different. Live a life awake or asleep. I can see value in that and say, "Okay, that's valuable.". I'd rather live 50 years awake than sleep. But why is this a higher purpose?
  5. Its most likely going to be Eisenkot.
  6. @LordFall yes I completly agree with you on this, this is not helping him at all. Just get out and become more attractive. Lets not fall victim to these limiting thoughts.

  7. ADHD - genetics or trauma?

    I would like to read a study on that.

  8. Shame of dancing

    Olaf replied to jacknine119's topic in Personal Development -- [Main]

    @jacknine119 whatt? Dancing so fun, why you feel shame around it? I dance everyday at home.
  9. I think God wants to create itself to love itself as much as possible.
  10. What is the difference if you become a billionaire now versus on the last day of your life?
  11. The argumentation is circular: the meaning of existence is existence. But it's not all lost, existence is huge and there's a lot there to have meaning about. Meaning is inside existence. Existence is the ground, meaning is the figure.
  12. Mmmm yes, that's true. I do feel a purpose, which is this right now. But it is true i can possibly discover a higher one. I doubt that any higher purpose would have anything to do with the way I live my life? Is this a bias? Maybe awakening is my purpose, and God is trying to awaken every part of itself. But this conflicts with oneness. So it's hard to... see why. If I awaken now or I awaken at death, what's the difference?
  13. Bro you're a random guy that apparently likes to complain and are refusing advice when given from someone with more experience than you. No wonder women aren't exactly swooning to be with you lol, you don't seem like someone who has embraced a value-adding mindset. Genuinely women enjoy competent men that operate from their masculine core. Entitlement and victim mindset are the polar opposite of that.
  14. Not his first time. And probably not the last

  15. Shame of dancing

    jacknine119 posted a topic in Personal Development -- [Main]

    I feel shame of dancing even when I’m alone. Do I start dancing lesson or work more on that shame?
  16. It is sad to say but I’ll probably laugh in his funeral
  17. Well, if you want to be really rigorous, you don't actually know that there is no higher purpose. What if God gave you life for some higher purpose you have not yet discovered? Just because you feel no purpose now does not mean there isn't some higher purpose to your existence.
  18. Unpredictability is a sign of complexity and nuance. To an outsider a person can seem unpredictable, but that is because they don't understand what they don't understand. A self-actualised person tends to be more complex and nuanced in character than average. An actualised person has a greater range of choice of behaviours and can afford to be more spontaneous.

  19. When to be a racist?

    I second that

  20. Point Out My Bias

    Heaven replied to Leo Gura's topic in Personal Development -- [Main]

    Bias towards hating Israel. You mention this country a lot like an obsession. You overlook Iran, Yemen, Lebanon and Syria, Qatar..
  21. This feels really self-evident, So I'm asking this question to see if there's a bias I'm missing." When you remove all beliefs, all stories like that your mother gave birth to you. If you remove every possible story about your life, about everything, you deconstruct everything and you go back to just staring at your hand or staring at a table, with just with nothing going on. Completely back to a blank slate. it Is self-evident, that the reason you exist, the purpose and meaning of your existence is to exist. This existence, this moment, what's happening right now, is the reason, the meaning, and the purpose of your life and existence. Now, this is extremely obvious to me, so I'm asking, am I completely delusional? I don't know if this took an awakening to understand. And I just forgot when it happened. But if you try to explain this to anyone, they are 100% unable to understand what you're saying. They say some story like "there is no meaning to life" or you're here to learn something. No. You exist right now and that's the point. There's no other point... There is no esoteric meaning, there is no higher purpose meaning, there is no fantasy and story meaning that you're searching for. But there is an ontological meaning.

  22. ADHD - genetics or trauma?

    Wow. You seem to have very strong sensory awareness. Strong Se in MBTI maybe.
  23. Today
  24. Any more practical ideas on how not to turn into this kinda guy...
  25. The fact is spiritual growth can come from anywhere including suffering. Suffering is not a necessary prerequisite. Suffering works because it can cut away the fluff and sharpen awareness - but there are other methods.
  26. They had to make some effort and get to know the guys, and make themselves VULNERABLE. It is not just because dating apps and social media, it is a change in culture. It is encouraged to stay single and "wait for the guy". It is just that "the guy" was in your face and you ignored him. And not just women. Guys too. Everyone is so afraid of vulnerability. Everyone is so fucking boring, they don't risk making some joke or sharing something deep. That makes them too vulnerable It sounds that I am whining right now, but I felt the need to share this. It started to get scary when almost every girl I liked and started talking to in real life at physical gatherings, not even took the chance to get to know me. Just to meet her on dating apps later. And no, I am not some noobie in dating. I know how to talk to them and had lots of sex. But yea, it is fucking Sweden by the way. Imagine the social problems you have in your country and make it 2x worse. That is northen Europe 101.

  27. Point Out My Bias

    Joseph Maynor replied to Leo Gura's topic in Personal Development -- [Main]

    Be careful here. The ego can flip around tell me my bias to reveal your bias. This isn't always wrong, but if we are talking about doing genuine shadow work, we should be asking in good faith.
