@Consilience Okay cool thanks. I'd say my practice right now mainly involves bringing attention to the fact that I'm having an experience, breathing into the sensations in my head, and feeling into my lower chakras and energy in my lower body. I put off psychs for a few months but now I'm really excited to get back into them. But I want to see if there psychs with a smoother come up like weed, vs lsd and shrroms but we'll see

@Consilience How does this relate to chakras and opening/feeling into different chakras?

@Harlen Kelly Haha. How much do you think beauty is subjective? Isn't it possible that a person could finding a conventionally ugly person attractive just based on the malleability of what we find attractive? This is bad news for ugly woman

@Harlen Kelly Please do not assume my gender.

@Zeroguy What kinds of spiritual practices were you doing before you got enlightened?

@acidgoofy These people have never experienced the profound healing effects of psychs and so they dismiss them. If anyone is serious about healing, and what you are currently doing isn't working, then psychs are an invaluable tool to incorporate.

So is the basic logic that this experience as it is right now is the freedom everyone is seeking? Like right now there is recognition of something happening. But it's not satisfying, blissful etc? But this is still the emptiness you're talking about right? When is it experienced as fullness? How do you resolve the misunderstanding? I have the sense of being behind the eyes, or at least there's a strong energetic sensation in the head? I guess Jim Newman would call this the contracted energy. What is the process of unwinding the contracted energy

How is the emptiness the fullness? What is identification?

@Zeroguy But what about all the woman in relationships with men in the bottom 90%? Do the men know that their wives don't even really find them desirable? This mating style is terrible for society. 10% of guys happy, 90% of guys are inferior and will cause issues for everyone.

Woman choose based on their options. Whether your approach works or not is based on her choice!

@Zeroguy If the man meets all of the desires of a high value woman she will accept cheating I bet. Do you think you can have a happy relationship even with a man cheating sometimes? No matter how amazing a woman was if she cheated on me It's over.

@Seeker531 Great share thanks. I think I've fallen into this trap and it's nice to see some resources to address this phenomena because I don't see a lot of spiritual teachers talking about this stuff.

Ahh nice. I went to Japan a few summer's ago, it's the only country in Asia i've been too, and I thought Japan was a really interesting country. I would definitely want to back to Japan, but I think If I travel on a budget it would eat up a big chunk compared to other countries in Asia. I don't have a set list of countries, but I'll probably go through India, Thailand, Nepal, and a bunch others. I want to check out some holy sites and monasteries too. I don't know what it's like to be a spiritual seeker in Asia now, but I've heard some pretty interesting stories from people who travelled to Asia in the 60, 70's etc. Do you have any ideas about what you want to do while travelling?

Lol. Good luck finding healthy relationships in people who are involved in media. Narcissists and Socios

She seems pretty solid to me

I want to practice visualization, but i find it hard to visualize what I want because i don't know what it will look like. For example, I want to visualize my self very happy. But i don't know what it would look like if i were very happy. Thoughts?

Ahh cool. I'm planning on doing that too once everything's opens up. I think spending a lot of time alone in a foreign place can be really valuable. How long are you planning on travelling? I'm thinking 3-6 months

Sweet journal man

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ryan_Cohen My bad Ryan Cohen. You sound very upset haha. It gives me confidence that someone like you is so against this thanks.

Has anyone heard of this game stop stock situation? I have a few people in my life who believe strongly in this as a get rich quick scheme, and it seems to be an internet phenomena so maybe someone here has some insight. Does anyone think this is a real opportunity to make money? Or is this delusion? Any other thoughts. I'm curious to learn more about this

@Yarco Isn't the entire thing dependent upon the short position of the hedge funds? The actual value is irrelevant as long as the company can remain viable, and that is looking more likely with who they chose as their new CEO, Andrew Cohen. Do you have any position with game stop? You sound like you don't know much about the topic either haha

@hyruga From what I've read so far the only way to make money is by exploiting the short position of the hedge funds. But I don't know what those positions are, or if they have already covered their positions. I've heard people say they won't sell until it hits millions per share which sounds fantastical. But if the hedge funs have to cover at some point then theoretically GME could keep going up as long as the redditors etc refuse to sell unless they cash out big. I'm only buying a few shares but if the share prices go to 50k to 100k i'd be super happy. I don't have enough money to make real money on a short position. I'm just gambling and hoping to strike rich on the backs of compromised hedge funds

@Shin Maybe Nahm is done posting here after the incidient

Everything is relative. Don't beat up on yourself because you got lucky with your family situation. I take a lot for granted like you, but reminding yourself that you have rich parents isn't going to bring about what you want in the long run haha What is your plan to deal with your unhappiness? Do you have any sense of what success would look like for you?

Have you heard the back story about the hedge fun short position?
