  1. You are the ego. But the mistake you made was believing that you were just the ego and not everything else. You are the Universe, the ego being just one aspect of it.
  2. Not really. Humans are only as peaceful to the extent of threat levels to their survival. We all have survival agendas that constantly conflict with each other.
  3. Prayer ideally should be based in expressing gratitude for life / existence. But most humans use prayer in manner that resembles wishful thinking .. with an idea that it will bend reality to suit their survival needs. The harsh truth is that God doesn’t prioritize our survival. It is foolish to think otherwise.
  4. Escaping wage slavery is key. Schooling really only exists to prepare you for being a wage slave anyway.
  5. Can’t really know until I’m on my deathbed and able to play back my life from start to finish.
  6. It doesn’t carry the same weight of someone of another race using it in a condescending manner. The n-word is used among blacks as a term of endearment at times, it’s part of our culture (origins being hip-hop/urban lingo). It’s not the word itself, it’s the context in which it is being used.
  7. @Leo Gura thought you should get another black persons opinion (most likely not many of us on the forum or who follow Actualized.org). Dont take the video down.. I know where you were coming from in being radically honest. Us as Blacks are very sensitive to condescending terminology because we encounter it so much in everyday life..but the work you do is truly inspiring and motivating for us who follow.
  8. Being miles away from “others” is something you are imagining. For example, there is no me somewhere in physical time and space, I’m only where you imagine me to be.
  9. There is no difference between what you call “real” and “hallucination”. Do the right spiritual practices and you’ll come to understand this.
  10. Clever wording, but try to avoid creating more distinctions upon reality. Everything is ONE. Meaning maternal and paternal are the same in a sense that you are conscious of their existence in Being. That which makes you conscious of existence also makes you the Creator of existence. You are paternal, maternal and everything in between..to Infinity.
  11. So true. Most folks in developed countries are ungrateful .. thus leading to immense mental, physical, spiritual and emotional suffering.
  12. An ego-ic projection on reality.
  13. We are all looking through each other's eyes. Even further, the act of "looking through eyes" is completely illusory .. which assumes consciousness is a mechanism of human biology. There are no eyes being looked through, there is simply looking .. happening at all angles in reality.
  14. Alcohol never developed any human. Blame it on basic health science.
  15. @Leo Gura interested in your theory here: once the God-realized state is obtained, does it remain throughout all subsequent states of consciousness? Be it alien, non material, quasi-mystical, human, etc?
  16. Depends on how you define "you" and "we".
  17. You have to detach from these word games. It’s holding you back in this work. Ground yourself in your direct experience ..because that is all that exist. When something like the above is said, the typical newbie asks a very predictable question: “but what about the direct experience of others?”. And the answer to that is whatever you call the “direct experience of others” IS your direct experience. Unless you do a deep investigation of what I just said and really grasps it, you will never arrive.
  18. Seems like this horse has been beaten to death. If consciousness is all there is, then of course it is limitless.
  19. Easy: “I’d love to hang out, when are you free to get together?”
  20. The necessity of life insurance is indeed a social construct, just as a million others things that humans deem “necessary” lol.
  21. You are doing a great job OP. I would say don’t let it bother you too much, you were most likely in your head during physical escalation, and the attempt at sex. The reason for you getting rejected, whatever that reason is, doesn’t matter. Keep making attempts, just like any attempt to master a field..deliberate practice, get the feedback and fine tune your approach. Do this enough times and it’ll will get easier..and you’ll be more out of your head/confident.
  22. Joe Rohan has become mainstream, ironically, through criticizing the mainstream…
  23. Yes .. but only when one realizes that all of language is constructed/imagined. In any case, most newbies get ahead of themselves by tossing out helpful pointers too soon . We have to exhaust language in our efforts to get to Truth before we can do away with it altogether.
  24. You are most likely over-thinking it. Follow what’s in your heart and don’t question it based on if it’s realistic or not. Often trying to be realistic is an ego-ic defense mechanism to prevent us from really going after what we want .. often because we have denied our true calling out of staying comfortable and secure.
