Just as the title says, what are your Nondual hot takes!!! Let's make it fun, I'll go first 100% abidemce is impossible, and I don't trust anyone who says they do. You're mind always comes back. Sure we hear stories and claims from people here on the forum and well renowned teachers but honestly how much do we believe that?

A cool video about the corruption of Sam Altman and OpenAI.

Not my experience. It will validate your feelings, but will keep reminding you of whatever reality you feed it. It never demonizes you. It's perfect for therapy to the extent of your honesty and awareness, but honesty and awareness are often a big part of the main issue. A human who knows you well is much much better, like a close friend or relative who's also wise. But that's rare.

The AI will just validate all your bullshit.

Because he didnt lose just by a little, he lost by a lot and there if you try to do the "it was stolen" move - with that move you also undermine and render all of your previous 4 landslides (from 2010 - 2022) potentially illegitimate, because the implication is that even when the numbers says that a party won with a landslide (with a supermajority where you have so much power) even in those cases it can be rigged at a relevant enough scale. With a supermajority you can do stuff like: Amend or adopt a new Constitution (called the Fundamental Law in Hungary) Pass or modify cardinal laws (laws that require a two-thirds majority), such as: the electoral system rules of the judiciary Appoint key officials, for example: members of the Constitutional Court the Prosecutor General heads of media authorities Make major changes to how the state and its institutions function And now given all of that, imagine that you would need to somehow tell a story that even though you had supermajority for 16 years and you had the power to make elections more safe, you still left elections structurally vulnerable enough so that they can be rigged at this scale. Its also not a good move for other reasons, because there is evidence that fidesz did buy votes (and we are talking about handing out money to some voters in some cases, in other cases handing out bags with food and other stuff, in other cases just literally buying shots and alcohol to some people) and if you try to do big investigations now, you are going to expose your own corrupt bs - these kinds of moves worked well against mostly uneducated and really poor people in places, where usually less than 2k but in other cases less than 1k people live. And because even small towns and villages can play an important role (due to how mandates are allocated), they can sometimes determine whether a party achieves a supermajority or falls short of it.

What is the highest beauty you have ever seen? Can you describe it at all? Do you remember it clearly? How do you choose? Is it unmistakable? -

How pathetic Muslims are, supposedly God warriors but they just sit by and watch Muslim children be genocided a few hundred miles away. Jihad cowards, Saudi Arabia actually supporting the genocide, WTF. -
When you come across something that you find truly and undoubtedly beautiful, and you take time to investigate into that in a contemplative manner, you begin to recognize that this very exact blueprint of beauty is all encompassing. This blueprint of beauty is at the very least an aspect of the delicate fabric of your conscious state. Beauty has existential roots that go overlooked.

No they wouldnt "Iran's non-oil exports for the year ending March 2025 reaching roughly \(\$57.8\) billion while imports reached \(\sim\$72.4\) billion," Iran would still have the entire Caspian sea to its north to trade in and they're literally neighbors with Pakistan and Turkey, their oil buyers, with pipelines between the countries. You gotta quit believing everything liars say. -

Serious question, but why do people like this exist? Coming from my background, that woman in the very beginning is like a space alien to me. Not even people in Africa behave this way (lots of my family are from Sierra Leone). I remember my Dad's shock when he taught in a 'ghetto' high school in the District of Columbia. When he was a teenager attending high school in Africa, all of the students first thing would pray for the teacher, and the teacher was allowed to use corporal punishments against the students. But the disrespect towards the teacher and staff in the American high school caused my Dad to quit his job within two-three months of working there. -

@Majed how are you doing? Keep us updated. -
i had the perfect book i think for this topic, but ill have to find it again, as it was like the entry to this, both religions and knowledge, investigating ~for me~ but i ended up never reading it passed the first few pages to begin w/ and i cnt recall what its called atm. *p.s. our grammar, or the way we communicate is based on Homer, so Greek literature is in a way the introduction into whats become how we all talk, and subsequently how we form ideas around knowledge, or what we consider *it.

I will write a post on this soon but essentially you need to understand you are an animal who acts based on stimuli. Right now there are many causes and influences around you and inside you that cause you to doomscroll and be indisciplined. Find those influences and eliminate them, while creating causes in your life to make you more diligent.

I suggest reading Atomic Habits by James Clear. He talks about this specific question in a great way and from different angles. The formula is simple: You define your goals. You set mini steps. Follow through mini steps consistently. After a while, momentum gets created, things get easier, and it becomes hard to fall back to older patterns. After about two months, the desired habits become your default identity.
