The more unconscious, self-biased, selfish, self-deceived, the more immature one is. The more someone matures, the more they become aware of their own inner lies that they tell themselves, face it, and stop doing it. Basically integrity is what it comes down to. The more integrous a mind is, the more mature it is. How honest are you with yourself, and others? How much does your actions cause pain to others? How much have you faced your inner demons and shadows, and integrated them? Genuine empathy (not people pleasing) is also a very strong sign of maturity. The more empathy you have developed, the more mature you are. The more you are able to see the big picture and see that we are all just part of one, the more mature your mind is.

I agree that it is fascinating with how much deception is occurring.

@Ziran What does your spiritual practice look like, if you have one? Do you have experience with altered states of consciousness? What wisdom do you find uniquely present in Judaism?

And I'm not making this shit up, some hackers broke into him and discovered that he wrote or help to write a manifesto/book "How to start a cult"

I noticed that in the forum in general a patternI have noticed for months you calling people immature. What is your meaning of immature?

I like to think of it like a family lineage graph. At the beggining of this graph there is a heart beating. This is where we all start on the graph and then this graph branches out to breathing we all breathe. When you breath and I breathe this breath is linked to the same being. Then this branches out into infinite strings of eating drinking identities positions of body, anything a living being can do. When you stop breathing the long line of strings on the graph collapses back to the main link. If I was a squirrel and I die and take my last breathe I will merge with it and realize that the thing that is breathing when I am a squirrel, and the thing that is breathing when I am a human is the exact same being breathing.

Good point. Tho, if one goes WFPB, supplemental magnesium is quite unlikely to be needed.

Haha, I guess it depends. There's also the possibility of postural misalignment depending on how it goes 🤣

In general. Our view of women should be unbiased.

No one is going to show you aliens.

The retro video game convention is done and It went well. despite me feeling super exhausted, mentally drained and anxious beforehand! Here’s all the details if you’re interested!:

Yes. Though I might be wording it differently.

Can you say the same to someone who gets disabled by cancer? -
You can just save yourself by saying “it’s good for postural alignment"
-
@manuel bon Have you ever earned some money with that? Was it enough to pay rent? Your goal is highly ambitious but if it motivates you, then good. But I would not call that realistic.
-
I don't know why you chose to experience it, I just say you did on some level that you're not aware yet. Including the experience of cursing at your destiny. Your experience is incredibly valuable. None of it will go to waste, I Promise.

@vibv @vibv You frame it really in a romantic spiritual way. It destroys me. Its like addiction. There is no good goal behind it other than suffering. You can say the same to a person suffering from cancer. -
Your suffering is unneccessary as soon as you no longer want it. This could even be true while you perceive the opposite: Of course you don't want it, right!? It means a higher part of your being has decided for your best Love & Growth. Maybe there is something you didn't see yet. Or it is a part of you that you don't want to accept of yourself. Or it could just be physical trouble to give you more weight to carry for the Good of All, because you deliberately chose it, even if it may not be obvious to you right now. And how is it for the Good of All? —Because you have the ability to see through it and solve - whatever it is that's behind it in the transpersonal psyche - it for the rest of Creation, too. Every situation you ever find yourself in is carefully chosen by you out of utmost Love and giving you the perfect chance to grow. And your growth is part of our all growth. And Growth is reconnection with yourself—which is ultimately LOVE.

I see that as a different energy. From the kunadlini perspective, the 7 is alchemical. 7 is the "key stone", metaphorically, the child born to support them all. Imagine: 2 parents on the side of the groom + 2 more parents on the side of the bride. Then include, lifted up, the bride and the groom. Then include, lifted up again, the child from their communion. The child is the fruit, the awakening, of the individual.

i have to add one more to my recap... but as i am realizing this i feel more fuzzy! its about who is holding the strings from birth to death... its me! now me! i existed in my childhood , in my youth, up until now! wow.. that's something! . that's very something!!! and from now own .. things will change for good! wow! that's very very something! . .but there is even higher self... Beyond identities (i show him how he deconstructed my masks!) so its now me and him! only! (or better say it) (you call it consciousness) but i can say... i messed things up in the childhood years... one night.. i played something a child should not see in his dreams!...and i got it confused (only because i thought he want to!) and then it was having weird dreams, but on the conscious site on things where looking ok but the damage was real, i think it was a turning point at 9 and never grow up

@AION Which wilber book would help the best to penetrate better through peter ralstons unneccessary suffering book? I hope my suffering counts as unneccessary in peter ralstons eyes and I can sleep well again. -
Thank you. I'll do that.

Likewise. Thank you. Reality is a collection of relationships super-imposed on one another. Existence is a collection of stable, contrasting relationships in the form of a nearly infinite nested chain, like many different sets of Russian dolls, all possessed within other Russian dolls, in a blossoming fractal pattern. Or perhaps like a forever developing taxonomy chart. Or like an endlessly branching series of choose-your-own-adventure-books. I am one of those "Russian dolls", a collection of stable, contrasting relationships, which is both possessing its own collection, and is a possession of many others. My specific configuration of contrasting-stable-relationships, the ones I possess, are a confluence. They're flowing. They're active, energetically in the form of aversions, affinities, talents, and flaws. And. within me, there's also a "pulse" which traces its origin far beyond my apprehension. This pulse is unique among other forms because it desires "better" in contrast to "more". This pulse within me is benevolent. These five, the collection of stable-contrasting aversions, affinities, talents, flaws, and the benevolent-pulse are gathered, within a mystery, the source of life, something-from-nothing. "Curiosity" is coupling within an inherent recognition of "truth". It's two becoming four, the origin of the human "heart", in contrast to animals. ( "Heart" is in quotes because it's the metaphorical heart, the seat of emotion. Not the physical heart, the source of blood-flowing. ) "God", imo, is a vague term. In my faith community, we're taught that there is a "being", a "who", an agent who is beyond all conceptions, completely ineffable such that even the word "ineffable" does not apply. The only reason we are able to speak about this "God" is because we're taught that this "being", this agent desires to be known, here-and-now, within the material realm, from the absolute bottom, to the absolute top and beyond. The logic behind this becomes a tautology and a matter of faith, however, there are ways to convince oneself. I admit, it may be naive, but, I feel these teachings, don't contradict what's taught here on this website. From my point of view, reconciling the Jewish construct with Non-Dual teachings is little more than a matter of intention.
