  1. - healthy foods include fruits or vegetables. These are cheap . It’s the unhealthy junk which is expensive. -make money by working in a job . Find a wage slave dog shit job like working in a grocery store or a barber shop . There are two types of exercise: - exercise that builds up your body like lifting. - exercise that breaks down your body like running . Pick the second one . There is no rush right now for bodybuilding and carnivore diet . we are not after bodybuilding. We are after any type of good habits that will build momentum in the opposite direction of the bottomless hole you’re falling in . make a choice to stop doing the bad habits that make you miserable. You can . It’s just difficult. But you can . It hasn’t changed much for me regarding side effects and I’ve been taking them for 5 years now . it varies case by case . Ask your therapist if they are appropriate for you .
  2. the same problem again. I understand that you’re trying to say that people shouldn’t be controlled by their minds. Been there done that . I have no issue with that idea itself. What I’m pointing out is the way you’re communicating it. When you say, “don’t get fooled,” “you are the one who suffers,” and “either you listen, or suffer,” you are once again positioning yourself as someone who has seen the truth while the other person is supposedly unaware and destined to suffer unless they listen to you. When In fact, you don’t know if the other person is more conscious than you or is already aware of your point. That is exactly the authority dynamic I was referring to. You may genuinely believe what you’re saying, but believing that you have understood something others haven’t doesn’t make your perspective objectively superior.
  3. Its a vicious cycle. Bad habits lead to bad outcomes. Bad outcomes lead to bad decisions. Round and round. Brute force stop the bad habits: Stop smoking. Stop watching porn. Stop using your phone for anything other than studying, working, or calling someone. Brute force start healthy habits: Sleep early and wake up early. Meditation. Healthy diet. Daily physical activity. Find a hobby that you enjoy, like football. Go outside and play. Solo or with people. If you feel depressed, and especially if you’re clinically depressed, you must take SSRIs.
  4. Men don’t care about anything other than sex . that’s what women will never understand.
  5. Enough spiritual wisdom for today.
  6. I don’t appreciate this communication. You are clearly trying to become an authority figure, and any opinion whatsoever that challenges or conflicts with your own convictions is automatically dismissed by you as us being less conscious than you of the illusions the mind creates. You have to accept at some point that you live on a planet with more than 8 billion people alive, with radically different convictions and worldviews. Insisting that only your perspectives are true and everything else is wrong is as childish as childishness can get.
  7. These sick tracks by Ali Nadeem have lots of good memories for me .
  8. Beware of this need to be superior, or of needing your favorite spiritual teachers to be superior. Beware of also putting them on a pedestal, taking sides in a debate, and calling them “bosses.” Our goal here is not to make the ego stronger, but rather to surrender and to humble ourselves, so that we can help each other reach a higher state of consciousness and contentment. The way you guys are doing it here, and have been doing it for a long period now, is as far as possible from this ideal. There is a very subtle danger in making spiritual teachers into figures that we feel the need to defend at all costs, or in turning spiritual teachings into a competition where one teacher has to be seen as superior to another. The moment we become attached to proving that our teacher is better, wiser, more awakened, or more legitimate than someone else’s teacher, we should pause and look at what is actually happening within ourselves. We can admire someone, learn from them, respect their wisdom, and deeply appreciate what they have shared without turning them into infallible authorities or calling them bosses . We do not need to defend them as if our own spiritual standing depends on their superiority. Nisargadatta used to go to the toilet , just like you .
  9. Need to listen to this .
  10. Is it true that “nobody can make you angry without your permission “ ? I mean I get it , let them ….but some people are so fucking full of shit man .
  11. Is it possible to understand all of reality , from the most essential existential level to the physical level , to the social level and to the personal day to day level ?
  12. Everything that shape “me” are not me .
  13. Poverty and lack definitely affect my ability to enjoy a fulfilling life and to have wellbeing. I tried convincing myself that I can achieve full contentment without needing to be above the average class but I was deluding myself. Black pill vibes I’m getting from life recently. The more I think about it, the more difficult it becomes to ignore how much material circumstances shape your ability to actually enjoy life. It’s easy to tell yourself that money, comfort, stability, and social status don’t matter, and that happiness should come entirely from within. But when you’re constantly dealing with poverty and lack, those things inevitably affect your mental state and your ability to experience life in a fulfilling way. I tried convincing myself that I could be completely content without needing to be above the average class, that I could somehow detach myself from material circumstances and find full satisfaction regardless of what I had. But honestly, I think I was deluding myself. There’s a difference between being grateful for what you have and genuinely having the conditions necessary to live the kind of life you actually want At the same time, I don’t necessarily want to become obsessed with constantly comparing myself to people who have more than me. I just don’t want to gaslight myself into believing that material conditions have no effect on wellbeing when they obviously do. There has to be some middle ground between believing that money and status are everything and pretending they mean nothing.
  14. Sometimes life gets so dark and bleak that I begin to lose all hope. It reaches a point where even the very possibility that this situation will ever improve seems unbelievable. It becomes difficult to imagine that things could ever feel different, that the darkness could eventually lift, or that there could be a way out of the situation we find ourselves in. And unfortunately, there is no escaping such dark moments in life. Almost everyone has to go through moments of absolute darkness, weakness, uncertainty, and vulnerability. And what stands out to me is that perhaps the answer is not to suppress those feelings, to toughen up, swallow everything coldly, and pretend that we are somehow above our own pain. We can’t. We are not meant to be completely invulnerable. We are not going to fly to the heavens and catch God from his ass, or whatever this expression is supposed to mean. We are human beings. We are vulnerable, fragile, uncertain, and sometimes deeply afraid. There is something important in simply allowing ourselves to acknowledge that vulnerability instead of constantly fighting against it. We don’t always have to be strong. We don’t always have to have an answer. We don’t always have to convince ourselves that everything is fine when, at that particular moment, it isn’t. Sometimes we need to admit that we are hurting, that we are exhausted, that we are afraid, and that we don’t know how things are going to turn out. And perhaps the more aware and accepting we become of our own vulnerability, the more capable we become of mastering it ..not by destroying it or pretending it doesn’t exist, but by understanding it and learning how to live with it. Vulnerability can become something other than weakness. It can become a doorway into a deeper understanding of ourselves and of life. Because darkness does not necessarily mean that there will never be light. The fact that we cannot see a way out does not mean that no way out exists. When we are in the middle of an unbearable moment, it can genuinely feel as though it will last forever. But feelings of hopelessness are not always accurate descriptions of the future. Sometimes they are simply what the present feels like when we are exhausted and overwhelmed. We are vulnerable. That is simply part of being human. And the goal is not to escape that vulnerability, but to become so aware of it, so accepting of it, that we can eventually transform it into something beautiful: into happiness, into joy, into peace, and into a deeper appreciation for being alive. the light will always overcome the darkness.
  15. -Seafood as part of a balanced nutritious diet. -Getting enough quality sleep and maintaining a consistent sleep schedule. -Relaxation practices, such as playing calming music in the background, taking hot baths, getting massages, and using a sauna. -Healthy forms of emotional release, such as allowing yourself to cry, talking openly with family or loved ones, journaling, or speaking with a therapist. -SSRIs, prescribed by a qualified healthcare professional.
  16. What is tranquility? Are your soul tranquil ? How does one become tranquil ?
  17. I wasn’t asking for the dictionary definition of the word or its equivalent in Hindi. And it’s certainly different from chill . It has emotional and even spiritual and religious aspects to it. More like how to achieve it ,does your soul feel safe and secure? How to heal your inner child? If you’re sad , afraid , lack love ..how to deal with these emotions? Etc
  18. Ok I think I understand what you mean . Thanks
  19. Note: God is obviously not a “he.” God doesn’t sleep because God is always aware. God is all-seeing, which means God sees everything. God is all-hearing, which means God hears everything. God is all-knowing, which means God knows everything. God is all-pervading and exists everywhere and everywhen. God is alive. Humans are also alive. But God’s life is the actual independent life because it is self-sustaining. God doesn’t depend on or need anything external to Himself to make Him alive. Whereas a human needs oxygen 24/7 and needs water and food. And even then, the human will die because it can’t sustain itself forever. As soon as a baby is born, it starts dying slowly. God is the only thing which could be rightfully said to be truly ALIVE because His life is self-sustaining and doesn’t need external resources to support it constantly. The second reason is because He will never die. That which is truly alive is that which will never die—which is God, not a human. Physics, till this day and age, doesn’t know why the universe doesn’t disappear into nothingness immediately for no reason. What sustains it? Well, the answer is that God does. God holds the fabric of space and time together with His will such that it doesn’t go “poof” just like that. And this doesn’t cost Him energy or effort because He is all-powerful and He does anything He wants through sheer will. If He wants to create a universe, He thinks it up, snaps His fingers, and there it is. That’s the mechanism by which God creates. A human needs God, but God doesn’t need anything. God doesn’t need anything because He is the wealthiest being ever. Why? Because all of existence is His property and possession. I possess a car or a house or money. But God possesses everything, including my car, my house, and my money. In fact, I don’t even possess anything. Nothing is truly mine because one day I will lose everything I possess. So I actually possess nothing. And God possesses everything. God is rich. The richest. If you want to be the richest being ever, you have to stop being human and become God. When you become God, you possess all that there is. I’m aware. God is aware. I can see. God can see. I can hear. God can hear. But my awareness and sight and hearing aren’t complete because I fall asleep. But God never sleeps. God is always awake. Always aware of everything. Always knowing everything. Always seeing everything. Always hearing everything. But I fall asleep. Deep sleep is a temporary death. Humans fear death because humans fear nonexistence. In deep sleep, no forms exist. Not even darkness or silence. Nothing at all. That’s a lack. God doesn’t sleep because if He slept even for a second, the whole universe would disappear because the only reason the universe doesn’t disappear is because God sustains it with His will. But doesn’t God feel tired from not sleeping? Why do we sleep? Because we feel tired of being aware. But why is being aware for 18 hours or more tiresome? Because our awareness is limited. And because we are mortal. A day is a metaphor for a lifetime. You wake up in the morning refreshed and energized. You are born as a baby and a child with vitality. Then, as the day goes on, you increasingly get tired, and then you go to bed to die temporarily, or sleep. Likewise, you grow older and get more and more tired until you are so tired that you die and disappear. But God is always absolute awareness. Never sleeps and never dies without getting tired. If you want to never get tired and never experience death, you must stop being human and become God.
  20. @thierry you are god . Can you understand yourself fully ? !
  21. Well , what Islam and the Quran talk about is a mixed of things which are true , and things which are “interesting niche beliefs to study “. An example of truths : God exists . God is all-powerful . God is all-Knowing . an example of beliefs : Angels , Devils , hell , paradise , an afterlife , the day of resurrection.
  22. Because a full understanding means there is not a single thing lacking ,not yet not understood. Since infinity never runs out of new things , god can never understand every single new thing that comes out of his own infinite creating power .
  23. @Breakingthewall I will address your points in a minute. I need time to make sure I understand correctly.
