He is not open to such things in my experience, so I have no desire to waste my time pushing it. He is very adamant about framing things his way. You are really asking me to do the work that you should be doing: which is figuring out which spiritual teachers are right. As a teacher myself, obviously I cannot give you an unbiased answer to that question. Ultimately you must make that call using exquisite judgment. And if you get it wrong, then it will be your balls on the line and you will have no one to blame but yourself.

@Sandroew It's okay. No need to pounce on him.

I don't see such a discussion happening. And also, why do you need it? You already know his position, you already know mine. And you know no amount of talk can resolve it since it requires Awakening. You can't talk your way into realizing Love. Have your Awakening and you will have the resolution you seek. You know you can't believe either of us, you must resolve it yourself.

I moderate very few people. I try to do as little modding as possible. I only step in if there is some severe indecency.

I plan to do more podcast-like appearances this year, so your wish should be satisfied.

No worries. Cheers!

Bohm gets it.

Mods are doing their jobs. Try not to take it personally. If you find an serious error, let me know.

I am not asking you to believe me. I am telling you to question things deeply. I have never promised a release date for the book. I always said it would take 5+ years. I can't write a book and make videos at the same time. It is too mentally exhausting. I put a lot of the book content into the videos and blog to compensate. Health issues have really slowed me down. That course will be made, I just can't say when. I share stuff I am working on in an informal way, but I don't promise any release dates due to health issues and burnout. I burned myself out making all the videos.

It's a good lesson for you guys. Even the best in the world make mistakes.

Yes. No supplement will give you that.

There are different levels of hallucination. It is different, Yogananda was telling tales of tigers biting off arms and stuff like that.

I don't do that because knowing him, it would be not a discussion. He doesn't discuss things. I am not going to argue with him. By denying that Infinity is Love, he misrepresents Truth. Not calling a thing by its proper name is a kind of lie. So he achieved the very thing he feared.

It's a deep issue.

@PenguinPablo

You can't stop people from supporting Israel if they want to. It is a deep cultural and religious issue.

There needs to be pain before change happens. The pain of capitalism needs to hit Americans hard before they wake up. Yes, many leftists are wasting their time and energy on quixotic solutions. Politics is a pragmatist's game, not a utopian's game.

That is true and does not contradict what I said.

Don't forget that evnetually all rich people die and then their fossils will end up in a muesum.

@UnbornTao The irony of what you're saying is that Ralston himself does not listen. Just look at Ralston's students. They don't question or challenge him. Ralston has created an echochamber around himself and his students do not have enough intelligence to see it. I promise you that Ralston is wrong about Love.

I don't really have any hobbies.

I did not say to skew anything. If falsehood is present it will get revealed naturally. But you need to seriously question what he says, not just hold him up as some flawless figure above you. I have seen many of Ralston's hardcore students and they clearly don't question him enough. They look up to him too much to question him. That is the trap you should watch out for. If you question him deeply enough you will realize the things he says do not add up.

Listen well and you will realize he says falsehoods.

There is existence vs non-existence as a relative matter. But then there is Existence as an Absolute. The Absolute doesn't have an opposite. Santa only does not exist in a relative way. It does not exist for you right now. But in the Absolute sense Santa exists as much as anything else. Remember, humans judge and define existence to suit their needs. Not as it really is.

@Cred You know what's also diverse? Normies.
