I am trying but my perspective doesn't see humans veering off from general nature tendencies to be something that should be avoided or used as an arguing point. Seems to me we just evolved at a much faster rate. Creatures like dolphins are probably 2nd in line if they haven't become as smart already.

Not what I was saying. Was more that bringing up what other people say as some sort of point isn't really a good one. It's putting blind faith into proclaimed enlightened masters. If you figured it out for yourself you wouldn't need to use them as a reference to back up the disagreement.

@Wyatt @Mikael89 (didn't mean to tag Mikael) Perhaps astrology never claimed to be dead on accurate? @Aquariustalked a bit about it in another thread. There's a lot of factors you'd need to consider to make a proper assessment. It's more than the month you were born in. It's really just recognizing patterns and not a absolute rule on how someone will be.

@Cudin Not the way nature intended for us to be? If anything I'd say we can't ever be what nature didn't intend us to be. Everything we do is in our nature and exactly as was intended.

Not at all. I am not concluding that any view is correct or wrong. I am saying you can't just hold the words of others as true until you have confirmed it for yourself. Not even what Leo says.

@Matt8800 I wouldn't rely on other devils if you haven't confirmed it for yourself. Being proclaimed an enlightened master doesn't mean you got it all figured out.

@Mikael89 I don't think anything is wrong with you. That was just to point out relativity.

Accept how people are. There's nothing wrong with anybody. You are free to think it is bullshit but that doesn't make it correct for everybody. ?

What's wrong with YOU? Just accept and move on ?

I used my phone quite a bit to browse the forums and I often find myself tagging or quoting somebody in a reply I then decide against doing. The problem is on my phone if I try to delete it like any text it just doesn't work and so I'm stuck with a cached draft unless I open in incognito or something. Any simpler solutions?

I am using Chrome this whole time and have this issue. Unfortunately doesn't work. What keyboard are you using? Perhaps it's the fact I am using SwiftKey.

Very situational. At the end you do what you want. You are gonna have to find the balance for yourself in every situation.

@TheAvatarState It is that way because it can. There is literally no restriction. No limit. That is what it means to be infinite.

Work on your contemplation.

Sounds like you already know the answer to this.

You didn't and won't solve those concerns. This problem doesn't get solved by debating it with other people.

What was the motive behind posting this?

Contemplate about it more. Thoughts are actuality as in they are something being experienced but that is not what is being said. It's about getting lost in all the concepts you attribute to thoughts. The experience or thoughts and experience of projecting thoughts onto actuality is actuality but the projection does not describe actuality.

Yes definitely. That desire is a part of the truth after all. The pursuit of truth is mainly unwiring a lot of things you've been programmed to do and think. It doesn't make you experience anything different but the perception and perspective does change. It's a recontextualization.

Agreed. I wouldn't be trying to figure out the workings of the mind and the ego if it wasn't because there is a desire to do so. It's not a matter of whether you are or are not delusional it is a matter of how delusional you are.

It's only pointless if you want it to be. You are here to experience. You could call anything pointless. If this is an experience you want to have then go for it. You learn and grow.

Definitely! I've had this insight too. Glad to see you have! Concepts are pointers but you'll never get it until you know where in your direct experience it leads to. Many people don't follow the pointers.

I'd take some survival classes. Takes time to learn to hunt and be able to build with nearby resources.

Be able to look through the self and no self lens simultaneously and the vision of striking balance becomes much easier.

This is probably the last thing I expected to get posted on these forums.
