You should understand that all those ideas are just ideas and honestly, in my humble opinion are wrong. Defining reality as unreal or as a dream from within reality is absurd. I've been where you are and I wondered: are they metaphors? Do these people know what they're talking about? Is it really as they say? I also used to do psychedelics brutally, hundreds of times taking very high doses. Sometimes I'd do 5-MeO, the next day mushrooms, the next day DMT, two, three, even four days a week, constantly breaking my mind, and hearing all that talk about illusion and dreams. Forget all that; it's meaningless. The point here is to leave the level where things are named and enter the level where things simply are. To delve deeply into yourself without definition, without a map, into the reality that is now. What we seek is to free the mind from its limitations, not to create new ones. In case of doubt, just think: nothing means nothing, and relax. You are, that's everything. -

If you really want to get enlightened moments every day that you want, just meditating 10 minutes, you should change that mental frame, you are not creating the reality, that's a closure. You are the reality happening. It's totally absolutely different, could seems that this is irrelevant, that what anyone should do is meditate and let the ego go. Mistake. The mental frame closes, and can allow openess. At least can make it possible. But anyway, your choice -

@Jirh For these kinds of experiences, there are alternative hypotheses, yes. But the hypothesis that it's real seems more convincing. And there are other reasons to believe in psychic phenomena. Essentia Foundation has various good videos on the topic, Rupert Sheldrake has some interesting studies on the topic, the Monroe Institute as well. I used to be a skeptic, but I was convinced. I didn't want to be a "psychic". It was constantly socially stigmatised, even in these kinds of communities. I don't feel special for these things happening to me, anymore than anything else happens to me. I'm not "doing it" virtually at any point. It's not my doing. What has been my feeling all along is that I had the materialist paradigm (with respect to the 'behavior' of reality; I explore this distinction here) as a starting position and then the evidence started piling up to the contrary and I gave all the rationalizations that you did (selection bias, etc.). But after a while, I realized that the materialist assumption was just an assumption and that I had been playing favorites for it. And when I opened my mind more to the alternative that the assumption was wrong, the evidence started becoming more salient, I started to not neglect it as bullshit a priori, I 'actually' opened my mind. And then the evidence just became such that accepting the alternative hypotheses were much more attractive to me, because the evidence was starting to get overwhelming and the alternative was starting to feel like gaslighting and defending epicycles. My hunch is that the lengths you go to defend the materialist paradigm and shoot down the psychic paradigm, were you to apply it to some of your own materialist beliefs and judgements, would probably not hold up. There are probably way more spicy beliefs you entertain daily, way more tentative causal attributions, that you give credence to than what I've been doing in my dream interpretations. That's my interpretation as a behavioral science graduate, where you start to learn that even materialist behavioral interactions which you think to be true, are often highly tentative and likely spurious, but you still entertain them as true. -
okay everyone, keep it respectful, don´t insult eachother otherwise I will report your posts. Talking about eye contact, just as @LordFall says, some people radiate life. Now that is exactly what happens when you have good eye contact, you radiate life and people are attracted to this and this is through building confidence and being in a flow state or even pumping your state. It makes your eye contact not forced, where you HAVE to look in the eyes forcefully, which is control and fear mostly. It should be natural, this aliveness, that shines through you and that makes people want to talk and engage with you. You spark them with your spark so to say. But if you feel very bad and you look someone in their eyes, of course they are not gonna go smile back at you, they will look at you the same way. Almost "law of attraction" or rather state transference. What you feel the other feels. So if you feel like shit, they are gonna feel like shit when looking into your eyes. Therefor I said, it isn't about the eye contact, but that the eyes convey the spark better then anything else, that spark in you, that aliveness, but also social energy, that is what is contagious and radiates through the eyes. Hope this makes sense, if you have something meaningful to say or add to this, let me know. I don't want to hear any nonsense, unless you want to make some joke and add some value in a funny way, that is fine, but please keep it respectful as well.

Have you had any mystical experiences? When I had mine I identified with all of reality moreso than just my male identity. I love being a male and fucking women( and men ) and I thank God that I incarnated as such but ultimately I see mysef as a will and spirit more than a male. Male and female are just biological realities of natural selection to increase survival rates. Life was never created as just male and female, plenty of asexual self reproducing entities even alive today. Me and a roommate I had a few years ago had a threesome with this girl who identified as genderfluid. She would change voices between masculine and girly. It was pretty bizarre but I'm generally a fan of novel experiences so I enjoyed it. Technically all religious people don't even believe in gender themselves since they claim to mostly identify with the soul and spiritual life over the materialistic realm. They are quite shallow in their thinking and don't even think about that when chastizing LGBTQ people. They are mostly cowards just scared of the way religion threatens you towards eternal doom if you do not comply to their beliefs. As well as they have cognitive dissonance since for a lot of people deep complicated thoughts are painful and they rather just keep things simple. This leads us straight to cultural homogenization, monocultarilism, patriarchy, status and power. Throughout most of human history what mostly mattered was power that you shared with your close group. As we learn in spiral dynamics, as civilization evolves we've had a deeper identification with our group structures and for our species as a whole. Not that long ago it was considered mainstream norm that other races other than yours were the enemy and subhuman. Before the concept of a state that was a real reality that the people that you encountered you were very likely to engage in mortal combat with. There was no room to tolerate those different than yourself. As we get towards the nation state and now multi state unions like the EU, we collectively unite more and more to the fact that identity is not really necessary to your security anymore. You see how the US still fiercly rejects that as the #1 super power today and so does china as the #2. When you are at the top you don't really benefit from compromises and actually lose a lot of power from doing so. In 2026 we have more room for alternative identities like Peter Thiel and Sam Altman some of the most powerful americans are openly gay men. It's pretty interesting to see how that conflicts with the massive christian nationalistic bloc that composes the other part of the republican party. Ultimately it will evolve towards radical acceptance because there are massive downsides towards rejecting alternative identities and by definition that makes you unconscious. If you truly embraced yourself as God as we do in non-duality or even as an actually absolutely powerful person you would not fear other identites as they would just be different fascets of reality you get to enjoy that cannot harm you. That's how I look at it so ultimately I'm greedy enough to accept all of reality(let's say most, I'm not quite fully enlightened yet) and will take women with boobs and pussy, trans women, femboys, etc whatever you got for me I'll take it. I expanded my horizons and fucked a dude that was not feminine at all the other day and literally a bald chubby masculine man and that was not particularly what I like in my partners but it was ultimately enjoyable. It's quite uncomfortable to stretch your boundaries in this fashion and I understand why most humans are not there yet but it's quite fun I promise! It also requires a lot of self-esteem as most of society will find you strange but you have to value your own opinion of yourself other that of others.

I was public viewing for the wm-final. Men I feel like shit. I have got a headache. This usually happens when I am resensatized to digital stuff. And the game was also shit. Time to go to sleep ..

People are definitely handing him power. These tech billionaire are working like a group. Its like the media handing him a forbidden key and the president is too. The corporations are trying to gain control while they have a retard that will obey them because they make alot of money.

LordFall replied to Bobby_2021's topic in Society, Politics, Government, Environment, Current Events
I think it's important to keep the facts top of mind when dealing with these people and not give the blessing of accusing them on their only mildly unnapropriate behaviour as opposed to the purely psychopatic ones; as disturbing as it is to think about. This is someone that is a sadistic narcissistic. A litteral definition, his father has full on diagnosed with NPD which is highly heridatory as well as shown in his intolerance in people critizing him and often times reacting violently in doing so. Here is a video of him physically abusing multiple women https://www.reddit.com/r/Hasan_Piker/comments/w6jt5y/how_is_this_andrew_tate_video_not_more_widespread/ As well as this voicenote and story from his 2013 UK accuser(I think he's being extradited to answer for that charge as well) reflecting on his sadism and why he enjoyed raping her and how he's one of the most dangerous men on this planet https://x.com/VICEWorldNews/status/1613248607712337938 I'll see if I can find another one here but there was another one that I found extremely offputting where the accuser was one of his camgirls that had a boyfriend and she said he didn't take kindly to her refusing his advances and sexually assaulted her as a result. As someone who generally enjoys a lot of red pill content I find it my responsability to call out blatantly toxic behaviours when they are clearly shown and seperate it from the content and figures that just write about sexual strategy and levelling up as a man. - Today

Gender identity cannot be rigidly defined when you deeply look into it. So yes, some people may identify in alt ways. Whether that’s harmful or not is a different question.

This is a good article, thanks for sharing. Yeah I think it's incredibly dangerous to hand over too much power to individuals with this peak stage orange mentality. The interesting thing is that nobody handed him power, he's a very competent and thorough man. I think his view is mostly elitist and natural selection based and he's not interested in helping the masses just a few talented individuals. I think Zizek's point on mimetic desire vs vocation is the best point in the arcticle by far. I'm all for competition and individual success but you cannot put it above collectivism or helping others otherwise yeah you end up with nurses being poor and exploited while they do the work I would rather not do. His other great point is that Thiel will outlive Trump's term so we have to be even more careful of him. I would love to have dinner with the guy, I think he needs to take some psychedelics and he'll be a much more valuable human for mankind. He reminds me of Elon Musk, very intelligent and capable and is doing great stuff from mankind but is driven by like fear and distrust of the average person so they must be restrained or great harm will happen. Elon Musk has killed a lot of people through his actions at DOGE, it's very unfortunate that such a smart man is so narrow minded. I do thank Leo for posting about the spiral dynamics model, it helps make sense of what's happening here. They just have not touched stage green and have a misstrust of it but are able to tap into stage yellow systemic ideas but not really understand the multiperpativalism aspect of it and thus lack respect for other ways of viewing the world that don't have to do with efficiency and success.

Burden is a perfectly good word to describe the experience of responsibility. There’s a weight to it. Burden does not necessarily contradict authenticity.

@phillyvx I would also say you are in awakening process. I don't know but intuitively, be in company with the fear. Let the full truth shine. Heart attack is ego before it dies. When it dies your heart attack will next time less big because you already know the answer. Repeat over and over until it becomes mundane. -
Completely agree with that, I'm no great fan of Argentina with all their cynicism but I can't really warm to Spain either, with the way they play. They manage to be both very impressive and yet somehow also completely forgettable, imo.

Hi there *whatever pronouns you prefer*:) I meet and see a lot of people that use pronouns like they/them, they/she, he/they, theirs (or even fae or ze). I was getting a piercing the other day and when filling out the info form, the list of pronouns to choose from was very long. I applied for a vipassana retreat the same day and could just choose either male or female. I respect it and its none of my business what concepts people personally identify as. But it is still sometimes a bit hard for me to wrap my mind around, and its a part of me that feels slightly confused by it. I would like to understand this from a higher perspective (like stage yellow or turquoise, I am at stage green, and am in no way enlightened). I have been on dates with "people with vaginas" that to me look like "cute alt girls" and call themselves "queer" and "they/them", and they also just date men. I have guy friends who have switched pronouns to "he/they". When i ask why, they say it is because they feel like they dont fit into traditional "gender norms" or that they are equally masculine and feminine or that they like to switch between being dominant and submissive in the bedroom. I have no problem with calling people what they would like to be called, but I sometimes struggle a bit to understand it. I am also a bit afraid to ask too much, since it seem pretty personal for them. Im just curious and would like to understand it at a deeper level. Maybe i´m just overthinking.

I think responsibility and burden are two different things, though. A master is responsible but is never burdened. We actually need insane amounts of responsibility to achieve mastery. Still, that doesn't make it burdensome. I think burden comes from lack of authenticity.

@Ziran They have continuation. Made up visualizations don't have that. If you think of a pink elephant it will likely not start moving on it's on, have the ability to help or attack and form allieships. The Tiger Woods and Li Hongzhi invokes were detailedly explained. @MediumKahuna was convinced with far less when it came to the devas. You just seem to have excessive criticism glasses on. I've provided more than necessary information. That said I can provide more information at request.

In my opinion, I deeply love you holds more value than I deeply respect you because love can be unconditional while respect is more conditional. respect vs. disrespect: respect = holding someone in high regards disrespect = holding someone in low regards It's a choice you make depending on how you feel about a specific human being.

You need respect from anyone you are going to lead.

Argentina tried to be tough but man there was no level to the match whatsoever . The stats speak for themselves.the Spanish players have way better quality than Argentina players. This is why I thought in the past that Messi should’ve retired from international football right after the World Cup 2022 so that the last scene would be of winning instead of losing .

Its like your in a coma right now. If you were in a coma a brain dead thing thats not thinking is creating your entire existence and you are that thing. And you can experience it in between you making up that you aren't that thing.

Mastery can improve your skills and your confidence. It does not eliminate burden.

No goals, no game. Spain prefers control over open spaces. They don't let you breathe, but they don't score a lot either. The most boring recipe for sports. Very mechanical.

Yup . Longest World Cup ever it’s a fact .

You can't understand even the more simple. It's amazing. You dont see that there is double intention, irony, etc? I'm getting desperate about posting here, it's like amazing. Anyway I like to speak about this topic, if no one understands nothing, that's life
