  1. Past hour
  2. Right. And yet here we are… discussing it with logic.
  3. I'm interested to know about these experiments. can you actually elaborate on them? Initially I also thought that the air in the city was bad, but not long ago I made a trip to a non-urban area, nature, in the middle of the mountains, with a lot of green, in some beautiful forest with lots of trees and birds. After spending the entire day in nature, truly apart from the city, it shocked me. The positive effect of just being there, with nothing else to do but take a nap on the grass, do some handstands, or just stare at the trees Man, I felt renewed.
  4. That's because any explanation is finite.
  5. If logic could touch the divine there would be nothing to discuss as logic would have worked it all out already.
  6. Dude, you already have your answer. She broke up with a rich guy. It means it is not ONLY about money. You can have money and be a serious jerk with no sense of humor, intelligence, swag, frame, abundance, experience, communication skills. Trying to seduce a woman with money is not a healthy strategy.
  7. btw, I'm just trying to understand your ontology in the deepest way I can, maybe the interaction can help you enhance it
  8. You say amplitude is feeling, that unity is a divine desire, that duality is a gift from god. These aren't field theory concepts, these are consciousness concepts. You're describing something that wants, feels, and gives. So why not just say Field == Consciousness? If you did, a lot of your open questions resolve immediately. The wave/space chicken-and-egg problem dissolves, consciousness doesn't need a prior cause because it's the only thing that doesn't require one. And your Messiah motivation finally has ontological groundin, you're not reuniting structures, you're reuniting experience with itself. What's stopping you from making that move explicitly?
  9. Hey, That's quite a motivation right there, thanks for sharing! There's something in your definition of mind. You say a system is more mind-like the more complex and low-entropy it is. It implies that mind emerges from physical organization. think of the following inquiry: why is there experience at all? You could perfectly describe all the complexity and entropy dynamics of a human brainn, and still not have explained why there's something it feels like to be that system. This is the hard problem of consciousness, and no thermodynamic argument can ever touch it, because thermodynamics describes structure and behaviour, not experience. What's most interesting is that your motivation, returning to the Garden of Eden, dissolving alienation, sounds like it actually requires experience to be fundamental, not emergent. If mind is just organized complexity, what exactly are you trying to reunite with unity?
  10. Feeling like shit because you want to be rich and you're not, is another thing. That would mean that it's for yourself, and not for impressing or attracting others.
  11. @UnbornTao I’d be more interested to hear how YOU came to these conclusions yourself. Instead of referring to your authority figures and what they said. Did you derive it yourself? If so, based on what? Sharing your thought process would be nice (because what you have is indeed a belief system that you’re insisting on).
  12. I understand that there can be attraction toward someone financially rich, but in my opinion is not an important thing. It should not be a deal breaker. You should not feel shit about yourself, because a person that chooses someone for their financial situation is shallow.
  13. Yeah, I wouldn’t rule that out.
  14. Whatever you want to be "real" is what will be "real". You tell yourself they're having their own experience and poof! They're telling you about all the experiences they are having and you have no reason to doubt them as you see people having their own experiences and you are living your own experience which is their experience and vice versa. Its a hall of mirrors. Your dreams are having their own dreams and their dreams are as real to them as your dream is to you. The whole infinitely powerful god thing in action. Nothing is off the table - including pretending you're not alone, which you most definitely are. From the level we are communicating 'paradox' is the only way we "humans" can look at it but while the you can't square the circle in this dimension there are higher dimensions where all such paradoxes resolve themselves. Then don't waste your time hating anyone because its just you hating yourself and you're doing that out of love anyway so don't take life so seriously. This place is a clusterfuck but maybe rightfully so.

  15. My meditation journal

    Thittato replied to Thittato's topic in Self-Actualization Journals

    Yesterday: 45 min of meditation Today: 45 min of meditation. Very nice and deep concentration both days.
  16. You can bet that bro will try to come back here eventually with another account. I would bet $50 on it.
  17. How bro felt after typing that.
  18. yes, sounds familiar. that's depersonalisation/derealisation. it can also be vice versa: depersonalisation/derealisation can trigger anxiety because it's a very odd, intimidating state. i experienced a pretty intense panic attack last year during dissociation. yes! that one also feels very familiar. it's like the state warps even familiar environments into something structurally different. yes, very good! hot/cold showers, ice cubes, physical exercise, using your senses to ground yourself. i would also describe any type of dissociation as the ego's attempt to "go into hiding" and, indeed, dissociate from the physical, emotional, and mental attributes it usually attaches to. typically, it's a reaction to help you deal with overwhelming circumstances or when responsibilities feel like they are too much for YOU to handle....so you almost take a step back and pretend like you're not even there anymore, or not personally involved. it's a stress-response, typically reserved for traumatic events. once this pathway has been activated, though, the activation threshold has been lowered, so it can keep getting activated more often without proper reason for it/can even become an unhealthy coping mechanism for some and an obstacle to successful psychotherapy, because intense emotions cannot be accessed, felt, or worked with. from what you describe, it sounds like you have also come to recognise the confusing aspect of how dissociation borders on the spiritual, but it can equally be driven by a lot of fear despite resembling an experience of no-self. personally, i found it hard to navigate this confusion as the dissociation was felt so spiritual and very addictive, and it was tough to let it go. three weeks sounds exhausting, though. how are you doing now?

  19. What is some music you like?

  20. Maybe, maybe not.
  21. If everything is consciousness, calling the cloud ‘stupid’ seems a bit strange. Isn’t it still an expression of the same thing?
  22. I enjoyed reading that.
  23. Are you being sarcastic?
  24. I met a girl today who friendzoned me because she just broke up with his rich boyfriend. But my friend is convincing me that if I had money she would interest in me. (She knows I'm broke) And I feel shit about myself because of this.
  25. Today
  26. To me it feels like his wife took control. Changing your channel's name from Matt Kahn to Joy And Matt Kahn and starting doing ONLY videos with her involved while all your audience was built with you going solo and going really deep seems pretty ridiculous. Would not be surprised if she loses attraction, but hopefully she is conscious enough of what's going on.
  27. Gesture and inflection
