Also remember God said I am in the world but not of it. The things that are seen are temporal, but the things that are not seen are eternal. There is a light within a man of light, and it lights up the whole world. If it does not shine, he is in darkness. I was blind but now I see. The way to perfection is through a series of humiliations of the false self. -
Really cool! I will try it out.

Yes . the nuance being that what you as a human consider as “ evil “ is part of the infinite creation. The infinite creative power of god demands infinite creation. If rape , murder , sickness, depression, death etc were not part of creation , then god’s creation will be missing that puzzle piece that makes his creation ,and him ,truly “All” . -

I absolutely agree 💯 Your job is to know yourself, forget about others, they’re just doing their own job, which is no one else’s business, but their own. It’s a filthy job but someone’s got to do it. 😉 Take care. For care is for the taking, it’s already here waiting to be grabbed by both hands. 🙌 -

I agree . don't you think though we have to walk the talk ? There is the trap of using spirituality as a form of escapism. if one genuinely relates to life and consciousness as stressful by default, then we should be honest about that. We should be honest about where we actually are on the path ,instead of pretending we are in a place on the path which we are actually not . -
This is a broader topic that can also apply to many users issues with understanding women ❤️❤️❤️

The problem with milk is it's one of the youngest staples introduced in the human diet (only 8k years ago). It works well for some people but badly for others. It has to be individualized. It also has nutrients one may want to avoid, depending on their goals and nutrition philosophy. Leaving aside environmental issues. I drank milk my entire life yet was diagnosed with osteopenia a decade ago (while still drinking it daily). One single food is not a guarantee. Also, a modern Holstein cow produces 5–10x more milk than it normally would feeding a single cattle, making Ca supplementation required to keep the cow relatively healthy for modern milk production — the cow can't naturally get the amount of Ca required from diet alone. So you're either supplementing directly or indirecly; supplementing the cow requires 3x more Ca than supplementing the human. Also, for curiosity: most Ca supplements come from limestone — most of it formed on the floors of ancient seas over tens to hundreds of millions of years — a chunk of it from seashells and bones of marine animals. So at the end of the day the Ca we drink or supplement is coming from these ancient sea creatures

While my wingmen is now on a date with a 9 who I pushed him to approached, I am having extra motivation to go out. Like now it feels like anything is possible and there is 0 competition. He told me that girl said to him she never got approached, probably because everyone is too intimidated to go up and approach, but this is an example of what can happen when you just go anyways. I could have been sitting on a date with her if I approached first, so now my mind is blown and literally is like, why the fuck do I sit at home? Lets go out and approach. Some motivation for you guys too, what the fuck are you doing at home watching Netflix for? Go out and have fun.

You’re welcome, anytime bro. 👊 God never said it would be easy, just that it would be worth it. The journey back to the garden. From self to self, an endless spring. 🫶 -
Small things in aggregate can be powerful. You're just looking for a pragmatic investment-cost-benefit equation, saving time for getting the 80%. You are my stepdad. Ok. You still want to test if that is true for calcium. So your focus will be on calcium for some time. You're just ignoring the point I made, but ok. Or do you think you will actually start to have visions of milk if you're calcium-deficient if you have never drank milk? Like evolutionary psychic morphic resonance memory (your ancestors drank milk)?

Did God created Evil?

It has been 4 years since I started having these symptoms. It all began with an office job; I was already an anxious and stressed person, but with the new job, everything got worse. What I feel now is tension in my shoulders, head, and neck. I feel a lump in my throat, and in fact, it feels like I have to force myself to breathe. I sleep poorly, which makes me feel tired from the moment I wake up. I experience this constantly; maybe at certain times of the day, like in the evening, it is less intense, but I still never feel relaxed. It is torture. I have already done various tests to see if there was a physical cause, but nothing; it seems to all stem from stress, but I no longer know how to get out of it. I have tried meditation, hypnotherapy, progressive muscle relaxation, and shamanic breathwork. For example, if I let go of my breathing, the lump in my throat intensifies and it feels like I am suffocating. I try to be optimistic in believing that in the end I will manage to resolve everything and maybe return to my old life, perhaps even with greater awareness, but in some periods like this one, I want to die, I don't know what to do anymore, and I feel desperate.

Thank you for your honesty. I appreciate it . -

I disagree; for me to be holistic and as efficient as possible you have to stop shifting your attention to small things and keep it for much more powerful things. Science is reliable but limited, and the problem is that studies are not individualized. A nutrient can be good for most people but bad for you because of your genetics or current metabolism for whatever reason. It's a bit like psychedelics lol; when you start to feel high and see things in your imagination. Except instead of seeing scapist machines or weird stuff in general you'll think "oh hey, I could really eat that food" and you'll have visions of that food in your head. There is always one food that your brain remembers and has analyzed the composition of. It's the same mechanism that drives people towards drugs since drugs are a way to force homeostasis. If I really wanted calcium I would drink milk at least it has plenty of other nutrients in it.

I def can; I'm just saying we don't know that for sure. When it comes to health, I prefer to not risk it on something that may or may not be reliable. In my case for example I was deficient and not craving Ca-rich foods, so at least for me it's unreliable.

(cont.) Like, if someone says, > Person 1 says "Monad = Gonad" > Person 2 says "No" Thats sounds crazy rediculous, but its levels beyond just stagnating and looking around the room, not particularly focused, maybe thinkin about the nature of your Sims 3 character or your tamagotchi pet, like its a step above the 2026-fully-wound-up-in-whatever without direction, cayse now its got some investment in the dialectic attitude of "what you were even doing to begin w/" which is itself of a profound nature. -
I'm a sort of "body is intelligent" person: why can't PTH rise or bone deposit status be the signal (or of course more 'holistically' all the related bodily signals that occur when calcium intake is low)?
- Today
-
Def true for things like sodium and water, but I guess we can't assume this for Ca. Mechanistically, Ca deficiency is silent: blood calcium drops make PTH rise, pulling Ca from bone, so there's no acute signal. The deficit usually shows up decades later as bone loss. Ca deficiency is a long-term problem, whereas Na deficiency kills in days. Of course the signal could come from different ways and perhaps even from PTH, but notice the craving hypothesis is an assumption we can't take for granted. If that would be the case perhaps we'd have way less people with nutrient deficiency. Also, notice that modern ultraprocessed foods completely hijack the sensing mechanisms so people can go decades consuming empty calories without adjusting for nutrient deficiency, so even if it exists it's a somewhat weak and vulnerable system.

Tom Campbell's code debugging story: https://podcasts.happyscribe.com/the-joe-rogan-experience/2259-thomas-campbell The epicycle hypothesis for materialism here is "he did actually view the defective cards at one point and he did see the microscopic 10th of a millimeter defects subconsciously and then he could access it in his memory during meditation later". i.e. extremely accurate and subtle perception and memory. Meanwhile in another scenario, materialists will doubt whether you actually remembered the general events of a dream correct and that you created fake memories. It becomes noticeable that you might be dealing with epicycles / ad hoc hypotheses when they start to look contradictory. -

Even when it sounds like the dumbest, of the dumbest, of the dumbest thing stated, Its an "Are we tracking the referent w/ this word or idea" in that, its a way to invite agreement too. It's 'how everyone may recognize, or come to recognize for their own case, whether everyone agrees/understands, or not, up unto that point in the sense that they have the opportunity to flag that datum / word that was pointed to (e.g. monad, or whatever it may be in the course of thought) and to consider the pages that lend themselves to this fuller context (internalizing that 'page of requirement, if it is like a pointer to a prior/or posterior thing or sumthin) i mean, just technically, thats how something like that could function, or should function, like when its actually got a lot of different elements that can change the nature of the question or the argument. -
Thanks for the kind words and the YouTube vids; I appreciate it. I'll check them out.

It was the last one I had actually, total Oneness..I was at work when it hit, I might have been on the forum. I saw my coworker literally as me. There was no diference, the Oneness was so total. I then stumbled my way out of work barely able to function. Got in the car but had to pull over as everything became apparent I was the only thing in existence and all other was a projection of my own mind as God. I was on the brink of insanity at this point because everything had been recontextualized. So it may be more shock than terror, or a combination of both. I mean that's a lot no matter what state of consciousness you are in. I was still walking around but was in a much higher state of consciousness where the ego was gone. Self and other had completely colllapsed.
