That was a bad shooting, no doubt.

@Strannik Do not think you're fooling anyone here. You do not understand what Truth is. Simple as that. It would be intelligent of you to show some humility.

Pickup teaches you this.

Shunya has brainwashed his cult of hippie followers into his apocalypse vision. It's silly. Mainstream civilization is not going anywhere. His hippie commune will die out long before America does. Betting against civilization is a really bad bet. -

Everyone's just struggling to survive. -
Sure, could be. But that's how many politicians are. Nothing new about that.

Shunyamurti is huge on anti-vax and is just anti-government is general. -

Knowledge of any finite domain requires experience and study. It never comes automatically just because you're spiritual or experienced in other domains. This is domain-specific knowledge. You're not gonna know engineering unless you study engineering. Nothing else will substitute for that. -

Ramaji is supposedly enlightened. He still voted for Trump. Spirituality does not guarantee that you understand politics. Many legit spiritual people are still stupid. Probably most of them. That's what happens when you meditate too much and think too little. -

A lot of New Agers take on anti-mainstream anti-vax style conspiracy theories because they are anti Orange capitalism. Look at Russell Brand. -

Oh god, it's like teaching geometry to a baboon. -
This is also a great example of where a taser would have been more effective. The problem with a pistol is that you have to hesitate a lot more before firing. A taser you can fire without worrying. Especially when you have multiple cops on the scene. The one leading should be using a taser, with the others pistols as backup if the taser misses. There was no need to shoot this guy. It didn't even stop him effectively and could have killed the woman.
-
That's where a taser would have been good. A taser can be more effective at stopping a person than a pistol -- paradoxically. You won't be driving away like that if you're zapped.

I never said it was good. I merely said she was a centrist. If politicians had good judgment they would be progressive in today's age.

Keep dreamin, kid.

Haha Nice try. You have no idea what Consciousness, or Absolute Truth is. It is not a belief nor a concept. You are the one lost in concepts. All your understanding about what I am saying is concepts. That's not what I am pointing to. There is Absolute Truth and you are not aware of what it is.

Only justice is not fishing. The goal isn't to arrest as many people as possible. The goal is justice.

Good luck enjoying life in ignorance. The one who will care, is you. Once your life turns to shit. -

Technically speaking pure formless consciousness/awareness is nothing, so you will never "find it" as a thing so to speak. Nothing is aware of everything. Even more directly: Nothing = Everything So of course you cannot seperate them out. When you are Awake and you look at a chair, you see the chair as Absolute Truth, self-illuminating. Eventually you will see that chair itself as Nothing. -
Watch some Owen Cook videos.

Stop complicating things. There can only exist ONE thing ever. It is everything you see. Call it whatever you want. But it has to be ONE, with no other. When you say there is awareness and also consciousness, that's two things. So you know it must be wrong. -
Well, if voters don't like it, they can unelect her in 2 years. In the end a Senator must work based on her values, not popular outcries. Representative democracy does not mean that Reps are slaves of the voters. This is a common misconception. This is actually wrong. Reps should exercise independent judgment because voters are shallow and have narrow interests.

Awareness is not a "thing". These nonduality teachers are teaching bullshit. You are Consciousness. Consciousness is Absolute Truth. The end. It is a mistake to try to do some reductionist deconstruction of your conscious field, trying seperate out perceptions from "awareness". That will not result in God-Realization. These people do not know what God is. They are parroting nondual dogma that they have brainwashed themselves with. Nonduality is just brainwashing at this point. -
What is a chair? In fact you do not know what anything is. This problem isn't limited to life. The only way to fully answer a what-is question is via Awakening.
