But in the EU they take 60% of your income in taxes. My effective tax rate is like 25%. So the sucker is you. I can pay $1000 for a sleep study and still have thousands left over for a rainy day from the income my government didn't take from me.

Ekhart Tolle DOES run multi-million dollar business! Why do you think you even know his name? Only thanks to massive corporate marketing. Tolle has a net worth over $30 million dollars, meanwhile you plan to live like a rat, hunting for crumbs. Ekhart Tolle is sitting in his beach-side luxury mega-mansion drinking champagne right now as you read this.

$200 is a regular office visit.

I've heard it all. Yawn...

I never said it was. Most things are 50/50. When in doubt, assume a thing is 50% genetic and 50% environment.

Pathetic.

Push is the key word. Reforms require pushing, even if you don't get what you want. It's a tug of war. How fast will the reforms come? I don't know. Slower than we'd like.

You can go to a sleep doctor and get a sleep study done. They will monitor your sleep and tell you if there are any problems happening. It costs about $1000 for sleep study.

How else could it be??

If you want to be a bum there is no normative argument against it. However, survival requires work no matter what. By choosing to be a bum you will suffer the consequences of that and so will society at large. Being creative and hard working is necessary to live in a beautiful world. Otherwise you live like a bum in a shithole. If you want to live in a shithole house, city, society -- okay, go ahead. But I will not be joining you. Having wealth means you are not a burden on others and you have the means to help others better their situations. A bum inevitably becomes a leech on others around him, leeching off their labor. So it is not an integrous way to live. I had a choice. I could have been a bum, or I could be creative and hard working and create Actualized.org. If I chose to be a bum then none of this would exist. Instead of helping people self-actualize I would have been a leech on others. It all comes down to the question if: How do you want to live? There are no objectively right or wrong answers to that question. But however you chose to live, there will be serious consequences.

The guy who made the game Stardew Valley earned over $100 million from that game. He made it himself. A good example of how to make $100M ethically. These kinds of opportunities exist if you are creative and hardworking.

Noun is the perfect term for Emptiness because it's the closest thing to a substance that is possible. Forms are verbs, formlessness is a noun. Of course that's just one way of looking at it. But there kind of is. It's not "behind", but Emptiness it the bedrock so to speak. There is the immanent and then the transcendent, the manifest and the unmanifest. Don't accuse me of dualism, these are just the limits of language.

@SimpleGuy There are phone apps that can measure if you snore. If you snore that needs to be corrected.

Could be many things, sleep apnea being a major one. Check for sleep apnea, check that you are breathing well and not snoring.

There is no boundary, but all form is still temporary. The only thing that never changes is Formless Emptiness.
