  1. Past hour
  2. @Elliott What you quoted was not an insult. It was conditional and based off of you actually telling someone they can’t think. I’m not going to be able to teach you any of this at the moment, sorry. I’m not a teacher and I find your ability for nuance somewhat limited here. I think respectful dialogue is the best focus for you before trying to make any points or be cheeky. And I’m sorry you feel that way about Willy. As you can see I certainly don’t advocate for a ‘sunshine and rainbows’ approach. I am very firm. I am very precise. Read ‘Thank You for Arguing’ or I’ve heard ‘Nonviolent Communication’ is another good one but I haven’t read that yet. I’m not trying to not engage with you, but basically if that’s your stated belief about Willy, I’m not in the game of convincing people. If you were in more of a ‘Shit how could I have thought that was a viable means of communication’ position—It'd be a lot easier to help. It is fascinating to have someone ask me numerous times how I get others to engage or be more open, though. Maybe I’ll just ask you, what was it about me that lead you to ask me questions on how I think? Maybe that’s your answer.
  3. @Zeroguy Glad those words brought a bit of comfort! Leo is great. And I agree with you on the solipsism angle. It's totally normal to be turned off by it. I believe people and the world are very real, too.
  4. Everything is happening and nothing is happening is the same event except on opposite ends of the pole. It cannot be described, only emobodied.
  5. The point is to realize that you are God imagining everything, including your life and your death. Actually, there is no life and death; that’s something that God can become directly conscious of. You gotta become so Awake that you laugh at the idea of there being any humans out there. It’s that radical. Yes, you will still experience this present moment exactly how it is, but the difference is you won’t be experiencing it from the human POV.

  6. Omega3

    I’ve been taking Omega 3 fish oil nearly daily for almost a decade and I’m not dead yet, so that’s good
  7. This quote below is an insult I'm not "worked up" at all, by the way no, to teach me, like ive asked you 3 times to..... just give the names of your strategies/methods I know one, respectful dialogue; what's number 2? I agree respectful dialogue should be used first and works for communicating with many people. I don't believe it works with Big Willy here
  8. Haha, okay. Interesting take. Let’s see you quote where that happened. I haven’t insulted you. Relax. I said we’re not enemies because you’re getting more and more worked up. For what? Proving a point? I don’t try to prove points. That’s step one. Step two is meeting a person where they’re at, respectfully. The points make themselves in step three.
  9. Elaborate What are your strategies/methods then?
  10. Uh.... buddy, that wasn't to you Guy, you're the one that attacked me with insults, I've said nothing disparaging to you.
  11. That’s right, and also why evolution cannot be accurately witnessed because no human being ever lives long enough. Limitation hasn’t got a clue about what’s going on they’ve only got their tiny little pixel of a window to look out of, so they’ll never know or understand the bigger picture, ever. Everything they think they know is pure speculation. Story telling at most.
  12. You’re just straw manning me now
  13. @Elliott I think you need to relax. Doesn’t matter. Poor strategy. I’m not Jesus, bro. But Willy hasn’t piped in for a few minutes and his last message at least asked what he was missing. That’s more progress than you made. I am not your enemy.
  14. Bro, I said this is only for devout conservatives. I said to only use it on them Show me you changing a devout conservative You didn't even read what I was saying to you You have one approach for everyone, that's like expecting the entire world to speak english. These people literally do not understand you.
  15. This is the example itself. I literally got you to ask for my input, immediately disarming you from the argument. Much better than just insulting you. I’ll worry about how I spend my time, thanks. I don’t know what you think you’ve see around here but I’ll usually have a curiosity that sparks my conversations like this. @LordFall and I obviously have the best example around here of ‘wasting time.’ Yet, oddly enough I feel closer to him. I never really had a problem either. Was just curious and respect him more now. I can’t say he feels the same way but then again it was never my goal to be respected or liked by anyone here. I focus on very specific points and lock in until satisfied, not justify insults because I’ve deemed myself worthy. Of course, everybody gets a little carried away here.
  16. Notice you are making a relative distinction that is solely based on conceptual thought that is in the end nothing but a mental story.
  17. "Behold, I send you forth as sheep in the midst of wolves: be ye therefore wise as serpents, and harmless as doves."
  18. Thanks man those are some wise words. Thanks for explaining selfishness. I don't have any. Maybe Leo but I disagree on solipsism.
  19. Show me your method and result then I'm just telling you this for your own sake, you waste a lot with your well intentioned though pointless approach. I couldn't care less what you think of my method, why do you think I would, lmao Lol, this is a good start. Keep at it young padewon. 🫡
  20. You wouldn’t know what it’s like to not think if you tried. You really expect me to accept your crap justifications to insulting people? Grow up. You obviously can’t think yourself if this is the best you can come up with.

  21. Can creatine cause insomnia?

    It's too bad Princess Arabia left suddenly.
  22. @Zeroguy It's totally understandable that you're feeling this way. It can be tough. When you see others too focused on themselves, on survival, while ignoring the simple beautiful things in life, and causing collateral damage in their chase, it makes perfect sense to call it out as devilry. Like who in their right mind would do that? Right? Selfishness is its own punishment though. I have never seen anyone happier or more peaceful than selfless gurus who devoted their lives to spread love and awareness and to help others. Those gurus possess some kind of halo that's so present, calm, and attractive in nature. I feel so drawn to them. They help me understand myself and the world around me and accept the selfishness I see in myself and others. Do you have a favourite spiritual teacher? Mine is Adyashanti.
  23. You don't understand. You're wasting your time explaining stuff to devout conservatives, they literally, LITERALLY do not think. They're purely emotional, entirely fear based. This is the only conversation method that works Not that it's what works for everyone, but this type 🎯
  24. You’re giving off the very vibe you’re fighting tbh. Sounds very angry and you’re speculating.
  25. Come up with a more sophisticated method, for God’s sake. If you can’t do that you’re one in the same and just letting your anger guide you too.
  26. @Hyperion Okay, how about this, Can the Absolute grow, become different, change etc ? None of those make any sense right, because the Absolute is already the Absolute. If something actually happened, it would have an actual effect. But the Absolute is never affected. If it were, we would be in trouble, but we're not.
