  1. IMO spiritual people are not superior by any means to mediocre ones. Nobody should behave according to someone's own laws because every thing has its own unique place in this universe. It seems to me that you are judging others who are not like you as if they are inferior and lack something essential that everyone should have. But the reality is that some things cannot be changed no matter how much we would like to. That doesn't mean that we should suspend our senses and watch everything detached because there's nothing to do about it. I don't think that's even possible.
  2. There's no reason to try to change things that are out of your control. Reality is full of complexities and people who aren't spiritual have their own reason for being so. Think about a person who's suffering of schizophrenia or any other neurological disorders. You can't make everyone think or feel the same way you do. But you can manifest your being and live according to your own setup.
  3. This seems to go hand in hand with the illusion of free will. It appears to me that we are what we are and there's no way of being. Most people cannot access higher states of consciousness because they are conditioned by the physical laws. So if they 'choose' to watch some cartoons instead of reading a book maybe it's because they are programmed doing so. There is no "they could have done it otherwise in the exact same circumstances". Dualism is when we think in terms of what's right and what's wrong. In nature, there's no such thing as right or wrong.
  4. Why there have to be any mystical peaks and not take the reality as it is? Some people are not inclined to be spiritual and have no desire for knowledge and reading books to reach at a certain 'level'. Aren't all of these human concepts of what is right or wrong? It's like we're projecting our expectations on how the reality should be. Those who seek different outcomes will eventually find them. Everybody is different.
  5. IMO, drugs don't reveal you things that you don't know, maybe you might notice things you didn't pay attention to before. I took LSD two times and every time I felt like a lab rat because I'm a hardcore determinist. Someone who's thinking about love and harmony, might feel like everything is love and harmony. In the end, the experience is highly subjective, just like reality and personal beliefs. So which truth do you want to know?
  6. I think we are real but the question is what are 'we'? As for the death question, I'm thinking about this almost all the time. However the thought that we could wake up in a totally different body or universe where nothing is similar to what we are perceiving right now, totally blows my mind. This is one of the reasons why I fear death or the unknown so much. Sometimes life appears to be like a really bad trip
  7. I used to get INPT and now I have INFP-T personality. I guess the results depend on your current mood or something because I never feel exactly the same in every situation. These tests are just for fun, I wouldn't take them too seriously.
