  1. As long as you occupy a finite form your ability to manipulate reality will be limited.
  2. Show me a so-called conscious person who can grow horns on his own head, then let's talk.
  3. You should contemplate the relationship between absolute truth and conceptual truth.
  4. Consciousness does not necessarily confer manipulation over reality.
  5. He may say some good-sounding things, but I doubt he would actually solve any of these issues. It's easy to level progressive critiques but not have the discipline and understanding needed to actually govern effectively. The President is not a dictator job. It requires working with all of Congress and all the insiders and bureaucrats.
  6. I have not been able to develop paranormal abilities that others could see. I don't know what that requires.
  7. NFL players and boxers demonstrate otherwise. You will never harden your mind against a baseball bat to the head. Be careful with utopian spiritual fantasies.
  8. Basically, in life, you're not gonna be treated better than you demand to be. If you set your standards low, that's what you'll get. Successful people set very high standards for themselves and others.
  9. A baseball bat to your head will morph your mind, no?
  10. Consciousness is not comprised of anything, everything is a figment of Consciousness, including energy, information, matter, and space.
  11. Humans a pretty limited in how much they can morph physical reality with their mind.
  12. He is good at leading technology teams. Leadership is not about engineering or coding. It's about leadership. You don't have to like Musk to recognize that he's a strong and talented leader. The Twitter stuff is just a distraction. When you are worth $200 billion, you too can afford a distraction. Although it's clear by his own admissions that he is regretting it.
  13. If you want to read philosophy, read Ken Wilber or Peter Ralston. It will be a 100x better use of your time.
  14. He is not qualified to run this government. He would make lots of bad oddball decisions.
  15. Reality is a Mind that dreams/imagines. When you say something is "real", what you mean is, it's imagined by you so deeply that you are not even aware of how it is imagined. And so you call that "real". Whereas if you become aware of how something is imagined, you call it unreal. You have to realize that this is all a trick of the mind. There is no ground for the distinction between real and imaginary. Because at root all there is, is Mind. The key is to drop the idea that there exists anything outside of imagination, by noticing that everything is Mind. How do you know? Consciousness. The only way anything is known. The only solution here is more consciousness, and no other way will work.
  16. There is truth in mathematics but you have to understand what kind of truth it is. It is conceptual in nature. You have to consider its limits, context, and what you're using it for. You have to be careful about what you think it means.
  17. If there is chemistry, filming it will only detract from it.
  18. Homemade porn is so bad. Why would anyone want it?
  19. Tucker is so full of shit. He always has been.
  20. Vervaeke offers some good insight. It's not a deep understanding of God/Love/Consciousness. You can still learn a lot from him in the relative domain.
  21. Love is the consciousness of metaphysical oneness. When your mind comes to recognize two distinct things as being identical.
  22. When I say Love I am not talking what humans call "love", I am talking metaphysics.
  23. What is there to like? Kant is grossly overrated. You can study him for years and you will have no better understanding of reality. In fact, your understanding will worsen.
