Visuals are a beautiful and good thing to experience. You should still get them at high doses.

More like: less dense ego equates to those things. Less ego, less gooding and badding. Observe what role gooding and badding play in upholding the ego. The ego is like a bird that flys on two wings: good and bad.

It's like I need to write a quote, and then write an explanation of it. Like some kind of BIble/Shakespeare commentary. But this feels over-the-top. Sometimes I don't feel like over-explaining it. But it's also important that it not be misunderstood. There is a trade-off between pithiness and clarity. Quotes sacrifice clarity for pithiness.

Because it had a unique premise and it had a genuine reason for being. All the other ones had little reason for being other than to make the studio money. There is a clear difference between things which are made for the purpose of creativity vs for the purpose of making money. If a thing is being made for the purpose of money it is already corrupt from the moment of its inception. Although I liked the 3rd one. It is best one since the first. This new one gives me 3rd one vibes, which is why it might be worth watching. Although ScarJo seems miscast for that role.

This makes so sense. The ego is constantly judging everything as bad. You judged 10 things as bad today. And you have done so every day of your life. And you will do it again tomorrow. Just observe yourself. Ego IS a matrix of goods and bads.

@numbersinarow There is no mystery in the quote: bad and wrong are constructs for your ego. I am not playing psuedo-profound Zen games with you guys. I say things directly and clearly.

@UnbornTao That looks surprisingly good. Like old school, smaller scale Jurassic Park rather than Michael Bay shlock. Jurassic Park is good when it's smaller, not bigger.

Yeah, worked that way for me too.

Because you are God but you have no idea yet what that means. You haven't found God. You just have stories. It's the difference between reading about billionaires and being a billionaire. Because truth is the only thing that matters. It just so happens that truth is God. But if truth were Satan, then Satan would be the only thing worth knowing. -

Because in the end God is the highest pursuit and purpose. Nothing else really matters. You can't compare God with shooting golf balls or making money. The promise of God is very enticing beyond material rewards. When all these religions were founded humans were much less materialistic, capitalistic, pop-cultural. There was little to do other than God, family, and farming. -

You're asking why religion is popular. Because it takes the highest truth and perverts it into a cartoon fantasy for ignorant people to follow without actually doing the work. Every ego wants to think that whatever fantasy it believes and follows is absolute truth. It's like asking why is pizza and porn popular? Because it feeds the ego's deepest cravings. In the case of religion, it feeds the ego's need to know and to be certain of itself. Ego loves to worship God, but only on its own terms. Rats want to worship rat-God. Rabbits want to worship rabbit-God. Humans want to worship human-God. Also, who do end up realizing God tend to be pretty exceptional people with what seem like magic powers. So it's like watching Tiger Woods play golf. It can look like magic which you cannot do yourself. -
The notion that he will get to the bottom of anything is laughable.

Dudes, I am not an app developer. Have some understanding of my limitations.

It's hard to know whether that happens or not. -

I have many various folders and playlists on my phone. I have various categories for various purposes and moods. I have way more music than what I shared with you. The best way to organize music is by mood, purpose, genre.

Right now I consider every tech company very over priced. I would buy stuff if the market dropped. I don't want to name specific companies because people will just mindlessly buy stuff without doing their own research and thinking. So I bite my flapping tongue.
