  3. Lemniskos in Ancient Greek refers to a loop (later a ribbon in mathematics and others) like a figure eight essentially. This is a term yous could use, as it touches upon this notion of — You have one thing that starts -> <- here, lets say, and then you cross over with a kindve equal but opposite motion/thing. You have a mirrored version of a thing now, as well as the original thing you started, as well as the path it took to get there. Essentially you have a cascade, which this notion of like, two causal points, or a start, and an end... Aristotle mentions circularity in this way too—That is how, its the only motion *without a rest/relax or naturael endpoint ("telos"), and no position within a circle could go on to be the undisputed "finalization". He goes to explain the cosmos using ideas like that of circular motion, but in this point hes trying to express more of the *cosmic motion, and having a starting point without termination. Thats of course leaning towards circularity in general, which is another important aspect—that which takes an different facets depending on what we're talking about (yous would have to do a whole thing on circularity, which is a separate topic). Lemniskos is a little different. Its not the same as *fractal and/or recursive functions because its more specifically emphasizing the looped path, and not necessarily the self similar aspect, though, the fact that its similar is part of it. Theres also this notion of like *similarity* in general, like. Like, in other words, you dont have to add things (at a certain point) when theyve gotten *close enough to being similar*, like, we dont usually think in these terms, but lets say, w/ anything "innovative", you may consider how you dont always need to **recreate the same things over again and again**, especially if they are similar enough. I mean its hard to express the areas where this is relevant, as it crosses into multiple places, and i dont know which its *suppose to be apart of, hence, i leave it here—for yous to decide, being from a more spiritual, mystical or creative/art standpoint, which in turn can go in any direction yous want.
  4. "You have no game." – NoSelfSelf
  5. It’s very common to crown your ego with a halo when moral development emerges from inner work. There’s a fine line between recognition of it and ego/identity inflation. It’s nothing to be ashamed of, as it’s only natural. But some readers might be ready to see it, which was the impact I was aiming for.
  6. Habits and Disciplines Journey Entry #72 Alright so I did a good job yesterday with the habits, but I had a few wake up calls yesterday / this morning that I'd like to address. The first is that my lesson count numbers were low last quarter, at just south of 15 lessons. I knew this was coming too... My boss also made the point that this means that I am really only teaching for 10 hours out of the week, like shut the fuck up.. why do you have to point that out... We're being paid minimum wage and you get $145 in sales for every lesson... Fuckin corporate bullshit man.. I don't know how much the higher ups get but fuck dude... The grind is real at this job. The main struggle that I have here is I feel bad asking for my students to come in more. I feel bad asking them to spend money when I know I have NOTHING. I will need to get past this if I am going to become successful here. I have been thinking recently, I really don't want a future here. I want a future in making YouTube videos that inspire and help others to actualize their full potential. I will be using this job for money for now and to help grow myself into a competent and healthy and integrated adult and member of society. But I have much higher visions for what I want out of life. This leads me to the next item, I have been struggling to wake up at 7:30 am every morning and getting in the shower. I know logically that this is a good idea for me, but I just can't get my little keester out of bed.. when i first started this habit tracker, I was actually really good at it and I was doing push ups and pull ups.. I think I've been going too easy on myself. Life needs some grind and grit to it. I have lost that fire. I would also like to remind myself that over the past 2-3 years, I have grown and changed REMARKABLY. Remember that, you have grown into a respectable man that can handle business. A big problem that I'm dealing with is I have self doubt and I feel trapped in my current financial situation... The solution is to become aware of your current situation, envision where you would like to take it and on a practical note, get into the studio more so that you can focus on building lessons and becoming a better dancer. 1.12.26 Morning routine goals: Wake up at 7:30am: 2 Make bed: 2 Journal: 73 Brush teeth streak: 75 Floss streak: 11 Shower streak: 46 Meditation streak: 2 Affirmations / Visualizations streak: Hitting on women visualization: 2 "I love having sex with lots of women" affirmation: 2 "I see funniness everywhere" affirmation: 2 "I am independent of the good or bad opinions of others" affirmation: 2 Free Talk exercise (Say anything that comes to your mind): 2 Night time routine goals: Brush teeth streak: 2 Wash face streak: 2 No electronics before bed streak: 2 "Whole day" goals: No porn streak: 2 No ejaculation streak: 2 Eat 150 g of protein streak: 1 No alcohol streak: 74 No smoking weed streak: 29
  7. People will see whatever they want to see. Even if Jesus was speaking in English, there would be a thousand different interpretations of what he was saying by now. One would have to abide in the same christ conciousness of love and mercy that Jesus was speaking from to really interpret the meaning correctly imo.
  8. What I said before needs clarification, since Nisgardatta, when he says "illusion," surely means "not ultimate." In that case, he's right, and he's one of the few mystics who makes that leap, not considering consciousness as the ultimate substance. The problem is the word "illusion," which implies falsehood. It would be much better to use the terms "relative" vs. "absolute," instead of "illusion" vs. "real." Nothing is false or illusory. Forms are real, but they are relational in form, absolute in essence.
  9. This will be interesting to see. Your ruthless tone & attitude is what got me into your work many years ago.
  10. Because you want to be as cool as me. Perfectly understandable. No shame in that.
  11. It could be that all the steps for a cure are already inputted in the training data of an LLM, it just needs enough compute power to make the necessary connections.
  12. @Leo Gura Regarding your blog post about Islam, I wonder if you know of a good source to learn about Islam form a high perspective view.
  13. Finding people becomes harder but connecting with those fewer interesting people is way easier cause there’s no more approval seeking nonsense going on. Younger souls don’t know what connection means. They build many shallow relationships in a doomed to fail attempt at fulfilment. Older souls are already fulfilled & connecting with people from that place of abundance. But it seems young souls don’t really vibe with that kind of independence & freedom.
  14. Today
  15. In your first interviews content was brilliant but form was uncalibrated. Really looking forward to seeing you talk in an interview now, let's see if you can navigate them towards a genuine insight or moment of clarity. I also feel you should talk on the interview structure with them, as you said, many of this topics are too elusive to be presented casually, maybe some type of unfolding structure should be in place like. Truth-seeking, epistemological, metaphysics, Awakening,... Then flowi without that overall structure
  16. Most likely. I'm actually trying to get diagnosed these days, but that might be difficult/expensive because I didn't qualify for ADHD assessment during the process when I was diagnosed with autism. I've tried Ritalin, but it seems to primarily give me extreme anxiety. Modafinil is what works for me. Too bad I've been unable to get it for years.
  17. Do you mean that you didn`t know why you should meditate or what?
  18. @jacknine119 You are not alone! I get upset when I see someone getting success in this area while I don't! Jealously is real. Have to work deliberately to manage it.
  19. @Leo Gura serious question, what's wrong with being crass? what if my mind thinks in these terms? I like such terms bc they feel more real to my current needs
  20. @Leo Gura do you physically focus your eyes on the third eye spot? I find it irritating and dont wanna accidentally go cross eyed. It does feel like a focus boost though and I do feel tingling in that third eye region. Pretty intensely and consistently. And I do see those star / light shapes And non stop goosebumps. I can get goosebumps almost on command. Feels like I'm about to ejaculate off the top of my head lol
  21. " If you’re at Yellow or above (or late Green), do you experience this as well? No. I experience the opposite. It's getting easier to connect. How do you solve it?" 1) I don't categorize myself or people in stages or colours 2) I am as curious as I can be. And if I see that something bothers me in others, I check where I can find this part within me and integrate it as best as I can. 3) I wear purple sock on my left, and yellow - green sock on my right foot. I switch the colours every three days, except the third day falls on a Thursday. In that case, I buy a cat instead 😺
  22. Currently trying to convince my chemist friend But maybe I can't outsource the task and I'll have to do it myself Does it dissolve in propenglycol? Or you do it via mesh?
  23. Rule of thumb is: reader's consciousness will be impacted by what you write. So if you know that then you make use of that.
  24. Because actual sex is not like the fantasy of it you are creating in your mind. It is exciting for sure but I feel like you don’t have realistic expectations. And to be honest, you are probably repelling women by being obsessed with it. Be more nonchalant if you want to have more fun on dates. Sex is not an end. You’ll be the same unfulfilled person after sex if you are deficient before it.
  25. The men I spend time with better be trustworthy. If they can't hold themselves to that standard then we have to go separate ways.
