The puzzle is how do we get you to do a better job at bringing in money. Finances is like health, it's not rocket science, it requires a grounded mentality that takes daily action. It's complicated to make this change, but it is possible. It could require a change in a chapter of how you're treating your life.

It's a good point. I thought of this also. I think most assume we mean God consciousness. -
Do you know what palentir does? Or are you afraid of the boogeyman? @Nercohype Can you explain exactly why it's evil and dangerous? Here's a long form that breaks down more of their founding and ideology instead of your senseless fearmongering

@Dodo okay thanks. An Awakening is the identification with an object of experience. Agreed. 👍 -

I'm aware of the "isness" when my mind isn't doing it's thing, but I haven't made it beautiful yet. I mean, it has been, but it's not usually. Usually, it's just neutral awareness of it. But maybe that's exactly what it should be or maybe recontextualization is necessary? Yeah, I'm just letting things happen organically. I'm sure I'll get back on the wagon at some point. -

In my experience women tend to have a deeper integration of Love than men. It depends on what we mean by awakening. -
Palautir is evil and dangerous. As is anything from the right

Finite perspectives are all creating differently and that is the Beauty. Loving True Beauty for me is a good pointer. In other words, whatever floats your boat haha. -

Hehe you say this... But I have this sneaky suspicion it is in your nature to return to it. Like an itch that cannot be scratched. It was that way, for me, at least. -
Natasha Tori Maru replied to Nick_98's topic in Spirituality, Consciousness, Awakening, Mysticism, Meditation, God
I think in the end, we make our own meaning. I am actually quite aligned with you here - beauty & love & truth. They are meaning to me. But at the heart of it when I look to my experience, and ontologically - I simply return to all of this *sweeping hand gestures* simply, is. The 'isness'. I always return to it. In its simplicity and paradox. Empty and full. Through that I see I make my meaning. And the fact *I* make it, is all there needs to be 😁 -
Joshe replied to Nick_98's topic in Spirituality, Consciousness, Awakening, Mysticism, Meditation, God
@Natasha Tori Maru How is it not about meaning? Beauty and love are meaningful to me. As you know, I haven't prioritized spirituality, but to me, it seems to be about beauty and love. I haven't put a ton of thought into it actually, so I'm genuinely curious. - Today

Yes, time is a bitch though. It's also a blessing but actualizing a dream takes life no matter if you come at it from being awakened and conscious of Godhood.

Economics. A dystopia is not very efficient and will be too expensive in energy so the path of least resistance will be world peace. Why do you think dystopia is so easy?

Joshe replied to Nick_98's topic in Spirituality, Consciousness, Awakening, Mysticism, Meditation, God
Yes, we're in agreement. I said "Spirituality as an escape from being a human." in the context of explaining the all-too-common path. I probably shouldn't have put it on its own line like that because is does kinda read like "is". -
@Sandroew When I watch the videos above, I quite specifically register it as "young perspective". Young as in partial, limited, inexperienced.

There will only be more men in Zen because discipline, austerities, isolation and mental masturbation are all masculine forms of spirituality. Females practice spiritually in a totally different way. Holistic places that incorporate both masculine and feminine such as Isha foundation, Art of living, Osho communities and even vipassana organization (which is a form of zen) have more female participants actually than male. -

@Zigzag Idiot I don't really understand you. A lot of this would hinge around how you define 'being' and 'state'. Too nebulous to tackle. I don't think you understand me. Whether that is on me or you, will remain a mystery. -
Zigzag Idiot replied to Nick_98's topic in Spirituality, Consciousness, Awakening, Mysticism, Meditation, God
@Natasha Tori Maru In pointing this out. You are now spiritual materialist. I point this out to you and now I am Zen Devil. How I hate this at times. Not being able to say everything at once and being done with it all. I appreciate the forum but it becomes a merry-go-round fairly often. Do you think our degree of being is in a fluctuating state? I observe my 'need' to engage in commentary and sometimes see it plainly as identifying. Depends on the mood I'm in. Some days, Rome falls nine times an hour. Sometimes not. Pokin fun,, Being light-hearted,,, -

True dat. That's why I had to post it.

@eos_nyxia Second question is interesting. That somewhat brings into question one's self-deception in relation to humility. @Monke I get you, Somewhat I think,,,, Bring up a relevant issue to discuss and get other's criticism. Or is it the distinctions they make translates in that direction? In varying degrees. Some thoughtful responses also. How can we all be so much alike yet vastly different in other perspectives or lines of development? Rhetorical questions. One after another. I guess that's all I'm good for.
