I tell you guys that this work is advanced for a reason. In the hands of a fool you can misuse advanced ideas to ruin your life. That does not mean I will dumb down what I teach just because a few mentally unstable people cannot handle it. Take responsibility for what you can handle. I will continue to teach the most advanced things in the world. Most people will not get it. But plenty will. I don't care about how my teachings make you feel. I care whether they are true and effective. To most humans this notion is not very fathomable, because you don't care about truth nor consciousness, you care about human feelings. So yeah, what I teach is not fun and pleasantness. I teach the most serious things that could possibility be comprehended by the mind. You should decide for yourself whether that's suitable for you. This is really a question of seriousness. Are you serious or not? I'm not interested in compassion. I'm interested in serious understanding of reality. Any compassion I have -- which I still have plenty of -- is secondary. This is not a mistake. This is by design. If what you want and need is a mother figure to comfort you and hug you, I'm not your guy. You can find that elsewhere. After you get all your hugs elsewhere, then you can come to me for some serious work. And I got nothing against seeking out hugs if you need them. Just don't expect that from me. My work is not designed for people with mental illness or who can barely hold their life together. If you are in that situation you should seek out more compassionate therapeutic help. People can and will abuse, misuse, and misunderstand my teachings. That is the nature of ignorance. I go out of my way to be extremely clear about what I teach. Few teachers are as clear, detailed, and explicit in what they teach. I don't know how to be any more clear. Every trap and warning has been explicated. Applying these teachings requires serious intelligence. There is no way around intelligence. This work cannot work without intelligence. I wish I could supply intelligence to you, but that is not possible. If you want to criticize me for being a bit of an asshole, that's fair. But is anything I teach about Consciousness false? If so, that would be the real criticism. If you think anything I teach about Consciousness is false, feel free to bring it up to me and I will try to clarify or correct it.

Nobody has ever claimed that vax is absolutely great for everyone. I posted on my blog early into Covid that the vaccine has risks, but that those risks are outweighed by the risks of getting Covid. That you cannot understand this is truly sad from an intelligence point of view. If the vax killed 100,000 people, I would still tell you to get vaccinated. Because Covid killed more. How you do not understand this is beyond me. Until you provide evidence that the vaccine killed over 1 million people, all your anti-vax rhetoric is meaningless.

I have no interest in what hordes and hordes of people consider good.

You are conflating relative and absolute domains and statement. I can say that Trump is an evil motherfucker. And at the same time, he's is still God, Perfect, and couldn't be otherwise.

This guy clearly has no clue what God is. It's all just theory and stories. But he's sorta correct that Buddhism is not God-Realization. Nirvikalpa Samadhi is not God-Realization. I was listening to this interview last night for about an hour, and then I realized, "What the fuck am I doing? This is so stupid." None of this will get anyone to God.

Why did God make my ass itch?

To be fair, many PUAs are deeply unethical. But you don't have to be like them.

@Hardkill First off, many of those movements were culture wars. It's a lot easier to get people riled up over unequal treatment of blacks, women, and gays, then it is to get people riled up over tax percentages. It's not even clear what the proper tax rate for rich people should be. That's a wonk issue.

Anti-wokeness has become the mind virus dejour on the right. That won't stop any time soon. They will try to win elections with that for years to come. They're even calling banks woke now.

I think you're overusing that Fascist concept. The right-wing does a similar thing when they keep refering to every Democrat as a socialist. These kind of slippery slop arguments are not very good. Not everything you dislike is a slippery slope to Hell.

It's no different than backing up a Word or Excel document.

Obviously there is inevitable progress and serious things get passed.

I just want an AI who I can tell to do my taxes.

Most people are extremely politically ignorant and fundamentally uninterested in policy and governance. Most people treat politics as a tribal sport. Serious policy is hard to pass that way.

When you get Joe Rogan and Russell Brand together in one room mouthing off.... Dear God...

I capitalize the Devil not because it is absolute but because it refers to the figurative Satan. As in, there's only one The Devil, as opposed to lesser devils. The Devil thing is not literal, it's just an allegory of sorts.

Hate and Love are not equal. Hate is not an absolute, Love is. Stop capitalizing hate.

"Percpetion of reality" is a relative notion. It's a manner of speech. It isn't strictly true. There is no object called reality which is hidden from you which you are then getting a peak at. In a sense toilets don't exist outside your awareness. You are imagining the existence of them. God can hide things from itself so to speak. God is only Omniscient when it isn't hiding from itself. The default human state is one that's full of hiding.

Do a search for nitrous, some here have commented on it in the past.

Look, of course not all girls are gonna like you physically. She might be right, but you'll never really know because you didn't really charm her. Girls are suseptible to charm and their attraction is highly mood-based. You have to catch a girl in the right mood, or even create the mood in her. But yes, physical attraction is an important factor. You overcome this by hitting on lots of different girls until one hooks. Girls like various looks of guy.

Lol Reddit is cancer. At least certain subreddits. Stick to psychedelic Reddit. That's the good stuff.

It's mostly a matter of degree. You don't need to be perfect to realize Absolute Truth. There is such a thing as Absolute Truth and Omniscience. By doing proper philosophy you can transcend all self-deception. At least temporarily. That doesn't mean you will be perfect forever.

@Kshantivadin Doubt it if you like. See where that gets you. This work is not about belief. Your beliefs are irrelevant.

Centerlessness is pure bullshit. FRANK YANG IS NOT AWAKE! He's a self-deceived idiot. A fucking monkey. And if you are not super careful, you will end up as stupid as him. I am DONE entertaining your stupid games. NOONE on this forum understands what AWAKENING is. No one! Don't you dare think otherwise. None of you have a clue what GOD is! BUDDHISM IS NOT AWAKENING! You're so stupid it kills me. None of you is ever going to WAKE UP! Because you are so fucking arrogant you think you understand. You understand nothing. Start by understanding THAT. Don't you dare play your games with me. None of it will work on me. I see through every single one of you. Wise up fast or you will lose my guidance forever. I am done wasting time with you. Nothing personal. I just will not play your silly human games. I did not reach my level of consciousness by entertaining such crap. And that is the standard I set here. It's time to stop slacking off. I have been far too nice to you people. I do not care how you feel about it. Your feelings about me are irrelevant to Awakening.

Fine, but defilements will always be there as long as you're alive.
