Can’t forget to add Diddy to this list. Too bad his ego got him prison time

There are also spiritually flavored egos who become rich and famous: examples: Aubrey Marcus, Jay Shetty

Can only happen through engaging with spiritual ideas that go beyond conceptual knowledge. 30+ years subscribing to the materialist paradigm is not easy crack. And I still haven’t cracked it completely. Insight is the tool used to excavate metaphysical truths about the nature and structure of reality beyond materialism. One of the highest thing a spiritual seeker can learn to wrestle with is the notion that experience is rendered not by some chemical process in the brain-one which we are unconsciously living. If not the brain, then where could experience be happening? Chewing on this for years have opened up some pretty cool corridors of my mind-but it’s also been scary. In any case- the game we play is falling into an infinite number of distractions that prevent us from pausing, contemplating and generating insight into the nature and structure of Reality , Consciousness and Mind. This is in essence God hiding from itself. But it doesn’t have to be God, as long as you recognize that it is all YOU and nothing else. Now that’s an insight for ya P.S. this post is coming from no one, and going to no one

Sometimes it’s not a good idea to share personal growth milestones with family. They are not the most encouraging at times, and can pull you down. Its good when your milestones are shared with others on a similar path. Keep up the good work

Ethics are a social construction. However, it’s important to pay attention to what your body is telling you. How do you feel about paying for an escort? That varies across different individuals.

Fair point- can’t deny the importance of cognitive development required in making nuance distinctions. Your work is also doing a great service in teaching youngsters how to make such distinctions. Keep doing what you’re doing

Take what is useful and leave the rest. That’s my approach with Owen and all teachers / gurus

Todd V dating coach:

Lots of Owen bashing lately on the forum. And really demonization of stage orange in general. youngsters stand to benefit from good ol fashioned self help. Positive thinking, self mastery, goal setting, follow thru, ambition etc. All things we try to bypass with spirituality and new age shit

most conformity is authentic in that most people don't know they are conforming when they are indeed conforming.

Including the idea of a separate self that exists independently outside of NOW. The unfolding of your entire life has been almost exclusively mental, grounded in conceptual knowledge and backstory. God awakens when it sees its work in the unfoldment of reality; it sees itself as a sort of master craftsman through Divine Consciousness and Intelligent. Consider how much you resist this unfolding, and how much suffering is caused by not recognizing that it is all your Minds work. To fall in love with life requires you see the Intelligence of your own Mind- bask in the fact that it’s Eternal.

It can be conformist if you don’t question your own questioning

now that's real strength

Common everyday greetings: good morning good evening have a good day have a good night

More conformity: Fast food. Amusement parks/Raves/festivals. Paying tithes at church or other religious gatherings . Holding doors open for people. Taking on debt to earn a college degree. Saying please and thank you

I’d argue that AI can be more intelligent than humans in some respects. This is what everyone is freaking out about, but that’s what government regulation is for. If we keep eroding bureaucratic legislative institutions in favor for corporate monopoly of AI- things can and most likely will get ugly

The attraction to a woman’s ass goes beyond cultural influence. Now the kinds of ass he’s attracted to- that could maybe be conformity
