Why? So what? Why not just enjoy life? -

And there's really no divine plan in the big scheme of things ? Is it really all just pure anarchy ? -

What skills are you building over time? For me, it's practicing Mandarin / Pinyin. I do 2 hours a day minimum. 3-6 hours a day on weekends. Watching Chinese movies, TV, handriting, etc. Planning to take it deep (HSK 4 and beyond) as long as I'm living in China. P.S. If you are a world traveller, then learn to love learning languages! Language study felt like such a chore in high school. But as an adult having been exposed to French, Mongolian, and Korean (and soon Chinese) in countries that speak these as native languages, I've found they open up to you so many opportunities when you learn thier languages. You become an object of total fascination which in my experience has been great for career and dating.

My personal opinion is that they are different words for the same thing. That’s what I think, others may have their own views that differ or clash with mine, and that’s fine, each to their own is my motto. The physical vehicle is an automatic self driving vehicle, there’s no one at the wheel, and there’s no passengers. -
This place is not going to translate well to Georgia. I'm the biggest atheist and if I lived in Georgia, I would go to church to meet a woman.... just go there and you'll have 10 ladies setting you up with their daughter, grandaughter, niece, or friend.

@Mellowmarsh I'm curious, if there's no one here, would you say there are some similarities between radical nonduality and solipsism ? -

Don’t look in the mirror, be a nobody. Because there really is nobody in the mirror. Idol = idle eyes.

This is it. When I think back to my best seductions, all I did was act like a retard and drop off-hand compliments like sprinkles on a cake. Things escalated so naturally... If it's a date or a social circle meetup, you just do things that you're passionate about and share them with everyone there. I believe @integral posted about this the other day. From there you go on little quests. Man with a plan type shit But @jacknine119 you got this! Start small. Step 1 is make a solid female friend. Don't assess hotness, just make a friend. ...And don't try to fuck her (like my stupid ass has done before). Sometimes you can, but the goal is momentum, not the first one that validates you. As you go you'll buld that social proof and get with one you truly like. I'm moving to a new country soon. I've been studying the language and I plan to meet women and show them what I've been up to. Playfully, of course! Having fun with it. Will probably post about it after a year or so

I actually worked with a guy that used Newman's same narcissistic manipulation technique, he didn't use it for spirituality just business. His long storied career was tumultuous and ended in flames..... he was not as bad as Newman with it, but it was the same technique. You reel people in acting like they're getting it and then a hard no on something insignificant followed by pointless obfuscation. It worked super good for him on a lot of people, but obviously when people started to catch on eventually, which many never did, everything would crash in an epic. We worked on technical stuff and dealt with people that weren't in that field. He was actually good at his job, but he craved admiration so much that it was his end, if he wasn't narcissistic he would have been very successful. Funny connection though, he called his 'crew' the 'God crew', well, he said that's what it was called, like other people called them that, they all wound up leaving him. -

Part of it was a friend told me I never let my space get even 1% messy. He said "Come on, throw some clothes on the floor, leave a notebook or two open." Over time I learned to 'tolerate it'. Then I had a girl move in with me for a couple months. After that I started a business. Both made me realize "I just don't have time for this petty, small stuff. Why bother." And not even from an apathetic standpoint. Just in a realistic, human sort of way. People are beautifully messy and so am I. Trying to keep my messiness crammed behind a paradigm of contraction is exhausting and energetically wasteful. But @integral a question for you is why do these kinds of people bother you? Have you ever considered keeping everything tidy, even beautiful to a tee? I don't know you but I'm assuming maybe not. I agree with this from the perspective of being a highly sensitive person (HSP). My brain is wired to at least have SOME level of order in my environment. The main thing for me these days isn't so much things being exactly where they need to as having clean air, water, floors, etc. Right now in Korea we get a lot of fine dust and sometimes high AQI levels, so I use an air purifier to keep things pure. Yes, this is a little different from the aestheticism perspective but it ties in in the sense that clean environment leads to clean mind. Being actionably aggressive about it isn't necessarily wrong; it's only a problem if you get emotionally triggered by things being out of place or a little dirty.

Epistemology means theory of knowledge, no?

Also, there is no awakened beings or non awaken beings, all is projection of your mind. Everything is Truth, itself. -

All mental disorders are the same thing. Reacting to thought. People do it over and over and over and the thought loops keep repeating. This will happen so much that there is no silence in your mind. Then the people beleive that they are these thought loops. These thought loops are like demons. The person thinks they are the AI that their brain is running. When there is no silence you have lost yourself and you think you are the demons you create. You can see it in police videos alot. When the person is freaking out they will say thats not happening and then the person will just automatically find another problem thats insane without thinking about it. Because thinking is not brain activity, silence of mind is thinking. They are running over pre programmed thought loops that they are responding negatively too. They are mad. Thats what madness is. The only way to cure it is to lock them to a pole and leave them alone with 0 stimulation. The universe can make up any perspective that is happening so people can enter states that they cant be saved from. The only way you can be saved from these states is from God. As God will show the person the silent place they are exists still. Your friend has to understand that hes not any of his thoughts and his thoughts are like AI programming, even the thought of reading or understanding and responding to what is being said. He need to detach what he thinks he is, If he can do this and remain unreactive to thought then it dosent matter what is happening you can make up whatever you want, And if you can make up whatever you want and still do negative things then you can tell him he needs to look at those thought patterns because why do you want that? -

Absolutely. No. There is no such thing as stupid or smart. All is what is. Good or bad, smart or stupid, hate or love is the creation of mind. Real love is excepting everything and anything the way that it is. There is a day of Ramana maharsi, "Good or bad is only belongs to mind. When mind is transcends, all left is Truth itself." And one more from Prophet Muhammad SAV: "There is nothing, But only Allah" or "All is one, one is all". Best, -

Tell them to no matter what God is with him. Don't tell him be to try to be strong, he will overcome from it. Just tell him that put full trust in God, let God take care of it. With this way internal dialogue within his mind will decrease. Meanwhile telling to personal to be strong will make it worst, because internal dialogue will increase dramatically. -
@thenondualtankie What is your take, what will you do?

"You can't know for sure where my mind has been 🤪, I'm such a sophisticated e-piss-temologist stating the most trite rudimentary shit as if nobody has heard it 30 years ago, not just the most obvious Leo bootlicker next in the line to the other Leo bootlicking bots repeating the exact same bootlicking script, not just desperately pulling up literally anything no matter how intellectually squarerooted or contextually devoid that could play in defense for Leo".

I'm almost done watching the first 100 clips. They are excellent! I have to go through them carefully with my own reflection.
