  1. 10,000 hrs rule means 10,000 hrs of deliberate practice, not 10,000 hrs of punching in a clock. You also have to take into account that people have widely different strengths and talents. Which is like a 5x multiplier on your hrs.
  2. No, that would be a gross shirking of responsiblity. No one can be the CEO of humans except humans.
  3. I see how he handled the latest negotiation with the GOP house leader. Biden handled it very wisely and intelligently. Until the way Trump negotiates, like a fucking child. America never looked weaker than under Trump. Biden doesn't make America look weak. He's a serious guy. Nobody is treating America as weak. The whole notion that America looks weak and ripe for what, conquest? is laughable. No one is gonna strong-arm America.
  4. Obviously there would be remains. Where else would they be? If you put a cat in a steel box and then crush the box into a pancake, where will the cat be but inside?
  5. This point is way overplayed. Yes he shows signs of old age but his judgement is still solid and sound. It's not like we are asking him to win tennis matches or rap battles. His job is to make very methodical, slow, long-term decisions so he doesn't need to be some quick-witted desperado. Do I wish he was younger and sharper? Of course. But considering the other alternatives I'm not too concerned about it. Biden has demonstrated sound judgment and strategy thus far. He is not making any major intellectual blunders.
  6. I am providing better information than 99% of teachers on YT. It would be a disservice to not make any videos for 10 years while I seek being "done".
  7. Biden is not corrupt. He has a lot of integrity. Is he centrist, mainstream, and status quo? Sure, of course. But I would not confuse that with corruption proper. Trump is corrupt to the bone. People are so bad at appreciating Biden's leadership in our currently hyper-partisan times. Biden is demonstrating remarkable leadership. Of course he's not a bleeding-heart Green the way leftists want. But that's okay. You gotta appreciate Biden relative to our times and the rest of the possibilities. The key mistake is expecting him to be a Bernie Sanders. He never promised that. Biden's promise has always been common sense moderate positions. That's not a bad thing when many people are radicalized. I don't love Biden but I appreciate his steady and commonsense approach in wild times. People have utterly lost their appreciation of this quality.
  8. #1 reason: Lack of ambition
  9. Totally different character. Pat has a decent set of morals and integrity. Pat is not a sociopath nor narcissist. I could trust Pat in a business deal or with my daughter. I would never even consider a business deal with Tate nor let him within 5 miles of my daughter. I think Pat's best quality is how he raises his children. I am impressed. It's just a loose term I use. Don't take it too seriously. A moron is someone who is deeply ignorant, like MAGA folk.
  10. How stupid you guys are is highly variable. Some of you are very smart, many not so much. But even if you are smart and serious, reaching Alien Intelligence requires a level of smartness that few humans possess. Nothing personal. You just have to use your mind is insanely artful ways. I've seen a lot of smart nondual and Buddhist people come amd go here, thinking they understand GOD, Consciousness, and Awakening. Thinking they have outgrown me. They are fooling themselves very deeply.
  11. Pat's a decent guy. I can respect him. He's doing his best for an Orange sales guy. He embodies some healthy Blue which is nice to see.
  12. I am not most people and I do not teach what most people comprehend. I teach what is highest, which requires a very radical way of thinking and cutting through illusions.
  13. Of course. Only a stupid person could get so many views. The more intelligent things you say the less views you will get. It must be that way because 99% of humans are morons, and they hate it when this is revealed to them through proper intelligence. Stupidity is incapable of appreciating intelligence. This is why MAGA people love Trump. Stupid people bask and glory in their stupidity like pigs in shit.
  14. @StarStruck My point is much deeper than that. I'm saying you're using a map of New York to nagivate the galaxy. All human maps of Awakening are that far off. So they are worse than practical. They get you stuck in fantasy and dreams. Your map is the thing keeping you stuck in the dream. This is what all Buddhist maps are. None of them lead to GOD.
  15. Correct. Although Wittgenstein is famously mysterious and obstruse. And that is what his most serious followers find most appealing about him. If all you got from Wittgenstein was that it's all an empty word game, then you are not a serious student of Wittgenstein. But certainly no one will Awaken through Wittgenstein's work. It is impossibly far from Awakening, so stop wasting your time.
  16. Why would anyone manipulate Perfection? Only those who are blind. You cannot make GOD any better than it is. NOT ONE BIT! That is the chief delusion you must disabuse yourself of. Only then are you spiritual.
  17. It only takes me a week to cringe at each new video. The rate of your self-cringe is the rate of your development. Seriously. You guys actually believe I am so special and good? Fools you are. I see my own foolishness a thousand times better than you.
  18. I def cringe at my past self. But I also fully accept that I had to make all of my mistakes to reach where I am today.
  19. All therapy is just the discovery and acceptance of truth.
  20. I'm surprised he doesn't have a baby Jesus in there somewhere
  21. Pat's the kind of guy who would commission a fine 19th century-style oil painting of Plato and Aristotle driving down Miami in a Lamborghini eating hotdogs and wearing MAGA hats, debating gay grooming.
  22. That episode was an accurate rendition of a Zen model. People into Zen will find value in it. But I am beyond Zen now. It all depends where you are at in your journey. My top priority now is to make sure people don't get trapped in Buddhism and nonduality.
