Just oh my god... Look at all these people. Alot of them are going to be sick in 7 days. Shouting, hyperventilating, crowded, spraying the virus on the surfaces they are walking on... Amazing, just amazing. I am sitting here, thinking going to Riga to bring a guitar to a luthier. Well, i think nothing beats these rallies where it comes to backwards leadership on the pandemic.

For sure and many other political and covid related protests even taking place all around the world, as we speak. But this... this is just the best... -
Ok, now you are in the prison, rather than being a wage slave... now what? What's the purpose? You can't basically do anything in prison.

It would be interesting to know how would he answer on all of these issues personally and how much does he believes of what he is saying. If you look at people like Alex Jones on his show and on JRE the things he says are quite different there. Unfortunately for many people death is the only hope, unfortunate, but it's not entirely true. -
You know, I was pretty shocked and amused on how appearantly dishonest one can be. I wonder for what kind of reasons Jesse Lee Peterson could be so unwilling to entertain the opposing paradigms? I am seeing in my life my beliefs change over time, so it is almost like a culture-shock seeing such unwillingness to reflect when put in such a vulnurable position to somebody who will try his best to shake your worldview. I think the main reasons would be losing the reverence from his community and obviously what he does gives him money. But even examples he couldn't provide, where people like Alex Jones would come up with elaborate paradigms to defend his position - which was funny how Alex was one of the first whistleblowers on the ballot "fraud" allegations.

@tsuki JLP could be so used at this point to this... and it's bringing him the bucks anyway. @Preety_India The whole beta male thing is basically everything that is not conservative/republican. Well there is definately some gray area abuse here while pushing the republican agenda. The drilled conservative agenda trough religion, homophobia, the paradigm of gender roles e.c.t. are a good virtue signal for republicans i think. He doesn't even need to explain futher, just mention the point. Everyone there would hate that being questioned acctually. Maybe his cognitive capacities are decreasing, who knows, he seems like he recovered from some substance abuse lifestyle or something and "now eats moderatly" and "is celibate". I am guessing substance abuse here, but it's just my speculation here. I have found in the northen europe (Latvia) that usually the substance abusers (casual alcochol users and alcocholics) don't like their ideas questioned, they get really mad and upset when you do that. It is easier for them to fight you and shout you than you discussing other perspectives. Just mention homosexuality, religion, gender roles, healthy diet, vegetarism, substance abuse, meditation, spirituality, extreme forms of art, libertarianism, morals, hypocrisy and they will go crazy sometimes. My personal experience. -
And I feel high after a good 16 hour fasting. Like really blissfull and lightweight. Ask @Vipassana.

Yeah, there goes my danza mathcore metal album, I might be playing in garage for decades, welp, here we go anyway...

Awesome to hear, that aspect of you will inevitably deepen over time! When in suffering, come back to reflect, internalize, meditate. I have had my moments aswell.

I would be very humbled if you did. =) Thanks.

I second this, I got this horrible neighbour who gets angry as i am typing on the keyboard and playing guitar on headphones... Now, he just sits there, does nothing all day (because he is at home all the time when I am at home), throws all kinds of insults tough the wall, shouts all kinds of demands that i stop playing guitar and then calls me a loser and incapable of playing guitar (while not giving an option to grow). Well, i don't usually say this but in my mind - that guy is a loser. Because of the scarsity mindset. Just ignore them as much as possible and keep the visioning, visualising and intrinsic motivation going. The waves of fear, insecurity and confusion will come and go, then the up-mood and the benefit of your visualisation will come out eventually at some point.

Hey, do you make music? Have you made some? Can I listen to it? =)

Hmm, interesting. I personally also use haritaki, hemp seeds, wheatgrass juice powder, deactivated yeast and linseed oil. Though those are natural supplements, good nutrition enables immune system. Meditation, fasting and strong desire to be active does enable immune system, but I don't know how effective is it. But for more than 2 years I haven't been sick in quite a while, haven't had a situation where I feel i had increased body temperature and when I did check, it was not increased. Even with my sweet tooth habit... Ohh, and I am also vegetarian and I rarely go to sleep with food in my stomach. I do have health problems, however, but haven't had a flu...me.

This is a great example of that you can't cheat life. Maybe you can change the vital documents of the country to stay president and fake an election and poison Navaljnij. The ignorance comes back like that. If he knew a wholesome and traditional way to approach parkinsons like hatha yoga and non-veg raw plant based diet e.c.t. his quality of consciousness would be such, he wouldn't want to keep up the facade that is the current political macrosphere. The vicious cycle of ignorance where we don't share our best with each other. Damn, it's like the system putting chains with rocks to the people, but Putin has the same thing attached to him also. -
PASSION, BECAUSE ITS WHAT YOU DO, NOT WHAT YOU HAVE.

@Schnaby Damn, if I HAD A RELATIONSHIP, WHERE MY MUSIC TASTE WAS COMPROMISED, THERE WOULD BE NO RELATIONSHIP, just because it's so intimate to me... And it will influence the music I will produce in the future.
-
It already happens before you speak, just improve your life in general.
-
I don't know, haven't had one. I feel like i am here just to achieve liberation mainly and to horse around with music. x) Life is short. Live it, don't bother at looking what others have that you don't. Everyone is in a hurry to tell you how to live, yet our lives are pretty crap. And those who have gf/bf, some of them wish they were single.
-
No not necessarily, it really depends on various factors. Factors like, willingness for truth, consistency, alcochol intake, what kind of meditation, how intensly does it happen, what mindset you have. Even when you have some of these again, life will not be perfect at all, but at that point it is more than barely bareable bit rather more and more enjoyable, including the bitterness.

The better the model, the bigger the problem. It is about the practicality of your life, rather than getting lost in the theory, yes, it is useful, but there is a fine line. Many problems of life are much broader than a concept, no matter how good. Sometimes there are just solutions that don't need overthinking, analyzing e.c.t., but for some it is useful. I just want to say, don't go all in SD.

You know, you gotta collect all the coloured artefacts and assemble them into the cube so it activates and you basically have unlimited power and can teleport in anywhere within the universe in a span of a nanosecond. Obviously it's a joke. How to integrate? Probably by some form of consistent self-dev in the inner and outer spheres of life. It's not gonna be perfect, not in this lifetime, there will people who will throw shit at you and when you make a mistake they will capitalize on it. Not gonna be thinking about how to integrate SD qualities then unfortunately. For each and everyones set of problems there are unique individual solutions. No need to glorify SD too much. If you are looking for all-in-one solution, that would be conscious death.
