Don't act on the thoughts just observe them. Thoughts are an experience you don't have to blindly follow just like you don't react to every sensation you feel or smell you smell.

Free will and predetermination are the same thing

Any word is somewhat deceptive in of itself. Because we try to create a mutual consensus of word meanings but it's really not. It's all relative. That's why we always have to explain what we mean to match meanings up. Buddhists may say there is no God but what do they mean by God? May not be the same thing as the meaning you use.

It doesn't matter what you call it. It's bologne to anybody who doesn't understand what you are pointing to. If you say anything other than God you'll get bunched up with being compared to new age bs or some other strawman.

And they build on a flimsy foundation. The couples who do make it past high school and even the ones that start the first year after high school, people rush into marriage and you can guess how 99% of those marriages played out..

When words target your fears and traumas, it can illicit a reaction of hurt because we actively run away from fears and traumas. They are there for us to want to avoid them. When you transcend them there is nothing there for them to target.

"Extremist Green" is essentially what the US calls the far left and sjws. And although their intent represents a sort of green humanitarian idea, the way they go about it is very blue authoritarian.

Hard to critique your methodology when nobody knows what or how you did what you say you did. If what you deem as shit advice is enough to rile you up, you still got a long way to go.

I'd say reality is random arbitrary and chaotic but its the opposite of those words at the exact same time and everything in between. Paradox does not constrain infinity.

You can only keep a lie for so long. You need to be 18+ to do a lot of things. Finding people under 18 on an 18+ dating website will be more difficult than it needs (Seriously like Hot or Not is way better for <18 dating) to be and as soon as the person you are flirting with finds out you are below 18 that will be the end of that relationship.

Probably because the person just want to relate. My middle name and the name I go by is Aston and I'd like to own an Aston Martin because my name and the car name creates a nice little relation to each other.

Tinder is 18+ nobody 18+ is going to date an underage person. Hot or Not you could maybe find some success in high school. @OP A lot of people in high school have very limited views of dating and sexuality and the social pressure is huge. If you fuck around, you will almost definitely get shamed for it. In high school you feel more than you think. So i'd say everybody does want to fuck around in high school but the stigma is so high, they often do it inside the bounds of relationships.

@Mikael89 Your projecting your own problems outward again. Is this forum even helping you? Seriously. All you have done is complain. Get a grip, man. Going on about how hard you have it here will not help you until you stop blaming the world around you and take responsibility. How long will you dilly-dally on here? Are you just here to invade every thread with your own problems to make yourself feel better?

Take your own advice

God is just a concept too. Look at where the concepts are pointing! You could consider the pointer of 'godhead' as the summation of all being in totality.

Shared being and one being are the same thing. Just different ways of saying it. Be careful to not perceive it as you as an ego being alone. Remember that your direct experience is still the same. You see people and acknowledge they are you but they still offer adequate socializing. Life's meaning is embedded in its existence. Any meaning you initially saw may have just been a projection of your own desires. You're experiencing high resistance where their needs to be acceptance. Having this knowledge does insert you into some alternate reality. It's the same reality this whole time offering the same things to you as an ego. Embrace it in all its glory.

Did the name determine it? Could chalk it up to statistical probability. I see the pattern but correlation doesn't always imply causation.

Which model of the illusion better describes the direct experience.

Newton's math is pretty solid, but Einstein better described what caused gravity.

Which also implies maximal survivability lies therein maximized consciousness and love, yeah?

DIdn't in his bullshit video he mentioned animals containing the least amount of bullshit compared to us? They don't run through any bullshit justifications that we do. Feels more like its going least devilry -> Most devilry -> least devilry. In order to purge devilry you must first experience it to identify it in all forms. Humanity must experience its worst to become its best. But if we are at our best for so long it could open way for our worst again. Hence history repeating itself. Perhaps enlightenment may be an out for this vicious cycle.

How old are your friends? Its not unheard of to have a family later in life when you've gained more experience. I don't want kids and I think a lot of people my age at 20 usually can get behind my reasoning even if they want them. 1. I'm not financially stable enough to take care of a kid and make sure they get what they need to grow and flourish. 2. I am not satisfied with raising a child in the current state of the world because I am unsatisfied with its state. 3. Having a child will be a big sacrifice on myself, I only want kids when or if I am ready to make that sacrifice. 4. Overpopulation concerns. You can say who is gonna take all these jobs but reducing population reduces the amount of jobs available on top of those looking for them, so it'll probably equalize out. 5. I barely know what I am doing now. I feel nowhere near capable of being able to raise a child to figure everything out and live on their own.

Why not? It does not have bias. Hence infinite pleasure and infinite suffering.

Teach them all of the above? None of those are mutually exclusive with masturbation. Saying healthy sex life is going to be a big phrase for allowing people to project their own standards by putting it under that label they try to claim superiority. I don't consider having a healthy sex life as being able to have sex every time you are horny. If anything i'd say that could cause problems in the relationship over time. And even if the former were true that doesn't mean one would opt for sex over masturbation every time. You haven't really given this much thought.

In this scenario its not the masturbation itself but the response to it. Body exploration is the inevitable. What education can do is make sure the kids are well educated for it. The positive outlook on it is because of so much shaming that has happened in western culture. Rather than outright wanting masturbation to not be taught, it might be better to be more thorough with the education instead.
