Yeah you really just need to contemplate what an object is(like a coke bottle) and realize you can never get to the bottom of what it is(Nothingness). Same with the self. Creation seems to form and exist simply by not inspecting it. The coke bottle exists so long as you dont contemplate what it is. The false self exists so long as you dont contemplate what it is. @Nahm yes the only reason why I'm taking this question seriously is because I think its True. But what if the question itself is imaginary.

? Is meditation actually meditation, and what's the difference between meditation and Truth... Wait why did I think there was a difference? I forgot.. Wait a sec, whose meditating? Wait a sec, whose the one asking this question. ohhhhhh. That question is imaginary. Its not real. Wait a sec. Whats the difference between non duality and duality...

I created meditation to make me realize I created meditation?

@docs20 nope

But its not just 'hardness' that plays a role in whether we can eliminate meat. A large part of it is beliefs, ideologies and views of the people. Maybe its quite easy to eliminate meat from an economic and practical standpoint... but from the standpoint of christian beliefs(that animals are made from god to serve almighty humans) to rational science dogmas (of meat has vitamins that absolutely cannot be replaced with vegetables), it doesn't make sense to go to veganism, or its completely repulsive to do so, as it threatens the worldviews that we have and love to death. And in history, what's been harder to change? Economic systems or the worldviews of humans? Its always been the stubborn worldviews of the human race that has been the hard part. Its our attitudes, our views, our egos, our psychological and sociological development. Why focus so much on the economics when its not the problem? Maybe focusing on the economics is gaslighting?

awesome courage man! I dropped out of college too. Know how tough it can be and I went through that phasw too. Just wanted to say you'll get through it and good on you!

@andyjohnsonman its not the default setting of reality, that's why it seems that way.

What are your views of living by a life purpose that is risky in terms of jail and personal security? The mind has been trained to enter samadhi states with a few minutes of will. During the samadhi states, the life purpose that the You wants to do, the result that happens after really feeling what that life purpose is, is always the following: "LP: To lead people into adopting novel social systems that increase their wellbeing and creative potential." In other words, inventing or doing analysis on different types of social systems like capitalism, marxism, socialism, communism, etc. And then persuading or influencing people to adopt these social systems, for their own benefit. It could even be deploying a social system within a business for increasing the wellbeing, productivity or creative potential of the people within the business. But obviously this risks jail, and living a hairy life. What are your views of adopting life purposes that have significant risks?

No that's incorrect. In Australia, spores are not legal, they are ambiguous. Spores can be considered a 'derivative' of psilocybin mushrooms in the eyes of the court under certain circumstances. In Australia, schedule 1 lists "Psilocybin and its derivatives being those derivatives having hallucinogenic properties" (Drug Misuse and Trafficking act 1985, Schedule 1) SUSMP notes this about derivatives: (SUSMP sec 5) The above passage indicates that a material can be deemed a derivative if the cultivation process of psilocybin mushrooms could be considered a physical or chemical conversion to magic mushrooms. In the community, it is generally considered that spore prints are legal in Australia, but spore syringes are not.

@LfcCharlie4 thats awesome that you're vegan, but to me the poultry industry is the tobacco industry much more than 5g.

haha I'm glad you see that. I've always wanted science to head that way. Unfortunately the ship has sailed for me and science, I'm now onto things like sociology, politics and designing social systems.

5G has shown evidence of imposing health risks, but its weakly linked to coronavirus. There are many more important things to focus on and talk about with coronavirus than 5G. Mass produced poultry and cattle farming is A HUGE factor for coronavirus, and this is the real thing that needs to be brought to light. No point wasting energy on this 5G = coronavirus shit.

well if you follow the teachings of Mongu9719 then yes God is a bit arrogant.

I think you would make good friends with @pluto he has also done a lot of higher dimensional being counselling.

If you're pushing yourself to get results but getting resistance then, just for a few days, try the counter intuitive move and surrender your need to get results. Surrender your desires and wants from spirituality totally, just for a few days. Also surrender your egoic desires like having sex and watching TV, etc. Just literally go with the flow of consciousness. See where that leads you. EDIT: you think you've got big spiritual balls by meditating 2 hours in a row? Nope. You've only got the big balls when you can let that need go and the faith to KNOW the meditation process will happen without you needing it to happen. Who knows, maybe this will free you up to do what will actually get results, rather than what you think will get results.

@VeganAwake Maybe that anger IS the thing, is the source, of seeing NOW as being different to how Nahm described. Without that anger, the source of that anger, what will happen? Could you try? I'm curious to know.

Yeah if you inquire 'whose feeling the pain?' and this sit is what You (not you) want to do, the suffering from the pain tends to dissolve, and the pain is what remains, along with bliss because you are doing what You want to do. In my experience, inquire why you want to sit for this long, and that will likely give you a good answer as to how to move forward. If sitting is really worth it for You, You Will get through the 2 hours. Otherwise, walking or taking breaks or even meditating while doing the dishes might be just as effective, and your idea that you must sit for 2 hours to get results is spiritual/new age social conditioning.

There's multiple depths to enlightement, and the depths are multi dimensional. VeganAwake might be going ridiculously deep into Mu or nothingness, but has no clue on the everythingness. Its all about your perspective of the mystical insight. If you see the cup half empty, its Mu. If you see the cup half full its god realization. @VeganAwake you're a nano metre away from seeing the vortex as You.

Universities have to go beyond just the type of content they teach to truly support turquoise type students. They also need to personalise the curriculum for each individual as each person learn very differently and has a different ego to the rest. They also need to invent a new way of testing. Standardised tests are great for seeing how well you have learnt stage blue stuff... sort of just makes the finish line for the physical sciences... forget it for stage green stuff like liberal arts and even orange stuff like business. Something more along the lines of apprentiships might be better. A way of measuring how well a student helps and resonates with others in the year below them might make sense. Standardised tests are too rigid and therefore do not reflect true understanding. They can always be bypassed through logical loopholes, and they barely describe whats actually happening in the students mind and body. And im not even sure if accreditation makes sense in turquoise or even green. Again accreditation is too rigid. Accreditation is a bunch of logical laws about what the person can do, but that cant really explain how qualified someone is at post rational skills and knowledge. You can easily bypass the laws through logical loopholes, and the laws themselves poorly reflect and point to post rational truths, because the laws themselves are too rigid. Lots of stuff has to be modernised to support a post rational university. And its deeply intertwined with how society evolves; as university is a function of society. Its an organ or component of society, its not isolated from it. At the moment, people like Leo ans Adyshanti and Bashar and Sadhguru are actually our best bet for turquoise universities, because they dont impose standardised tests, or accreditations to use them(apart from Sadhguru). But thats really because its operating outside of the core function of society. Its a free market phenomena. When society starts looking at content like this for universities... things will need to change drastically. In fact I think university is already hopeless. Its terrible for liberal arts and business and social science. Its only really good for physical sciences like mathematics, statistics, physics, chemistry and biology. Its not even that great for engineering haha. Employers always complain about the lack of skills grads have for engineering jobs.

exactly

@AlphaAbundance maybe they are the same thing

well that's a good start to look isn't it. Even if you're a woman, in this day and age its important.
