  1. Is man the logical and expected result of Evolution? Science is advancing rapidly - In the near future we, Humans, may become capable of literally creating artificial life that can mimic biological Human life - And in many ways may be created to be superior to the existent Human. I'll give you an imaginary, but at least possible, future where you will have the power to correct any mistakes made by Evolution. Can you design a Human that is better suited for the future Can you alter the internal death wish that drives Humanity to destructive self and social tendencies to destroy his own kind - fix the evolutionary paradigm that will drive the Human species to extinction Maybe this new science is still beyond your imagination - But it is possible Is the Human species capable of evolving to a higher plane of existence either from altering internal biological flaws or designing a 'New Humanoid' better than the old biological one
  2. Software needs hardware. The idea that the software mysteriously goes somewhere else when the hardware it's running on is dismantled seems like a misunderstanding of the nature of software.
  3. This is not meant to be religious but might be taken to be mystical - Because it reflects concepts such as immortality and rebirth. This post is based upon the thinking of Max Planck, the famous Nobel Prize winning physicist who gave us Quantum Mechanics - And specifically my favorite quote by Planck: “I regard consciousness as fundamental. I regard matter as derivative from consciousness. We cannot get behind consciousness. Everything that we talk about, everything that we regard as existing, postulates consciousness.” ― Max Planck Again 'consciousness is fundamental' - No beginning, no end, but rather a fundamental state of conscious existence that is the be all of all that exists - The past, present, and future is backed by an ever existing state of consciousness Now assuming, just for the sake of argument, that Planck is correct - Is death even possible How can any form of life actually die, discounting the actual physical body which we know will eventually pass on - But the ever existent conscious state that the physical body came from will always exist and the conscious essence that the body came from is ever present. So we Humans, or any life form for that matter, can not die completely - It simply returns to the primal and forever state of consciousness That said - Can we postulate the existence of a real afterlife where our ego specific conscious mind can maintain itself and voluntarily choose to return and be reborn And finally do you know of anyone, including yourself, who believes, and even better still has evidence of living before
  4. That's why divorce exist.
  5. I disagree. An important point to remember is that you are not getting married out of charity for the other person. You get married because you have needs. If the other person is willing to provide them to you, and you live in gratitude, then there will not be too much friction. Do not look for the ideal man or the ideal woman. There is none. If you understand that it is your needs that make you seek a companion, find someone who is reasonably compatible with you, if you accept, respect, love, include, care for, and take responsibility for each other, it can be a beautiful relationship.
  6. Yeah weird .not the perfect timing for it .he still have to mature enough first . It is not compulsory or necessary for everyone to get married and have children. We would advise everyone to get married if the human race was in danger of disappearing, but the human population is exploding. If you do not reproduce, you do humanity a great service. But if you get into marriage, and especially if you have children, it is a minimum 20-year project. That is if they do well. If they do not do well, it is a lifelong project. If you want to get into such projects, there must be a commitment to create a stable situation for at least 20 years. Otherwise, you should not get into such projects, drop it halfway and walk away. And there is no need to talk about marriage and divorce in the same breath as if they come together. No one thought of divorce in India until recently. If it so happens something went entirely wrong between two people, there is no way to fix it, and they have to separate, it is unfortunate, but it happens. But you do not have to plan it at the time of the wedding
  7. Yeah i agree. Being responsible parents is necessary. And that can't happen without commitment from both the father and the mother. I would say though..that at least 25 to 30 per cent of the people do not need to get into marriage because it is just a passing interest for them. For another 30 to 40 per cent, it may be a little longer and they get into this. For 10 to 12 years they feel good and after that they think it is a burden. But there are some people for whom the need is very strong. About 25 to 30 per cent need partnerships for a much longer period – they definitely need to get into such arrangements. Right now, people have found other kinds of solutions. “Okay, I wonc’t get married, I will just live-in.” If you are just living with one person, it is anyway a marriage, whether you have a certificate or not. But if you think you can choose your partners every weekend, you are causing serious damage to yoursel. If you find that marriage is not necessary, that is it, once you make a decision, do not look that way. If you make a decision to go one way, do not look the other way. You must do one of these things. If you hang around in between, you will remain in a constant state of confusion. “Which is the best thing?” There is no best thing. Live your life in such a way that whatever you are doing, you are doing that absolutely. If you have this quality, whatever you do, it is fine.
  8. As a human being you have physical needs, emotional needs, psychological needs, social and economic needs. People may not want to consciously think about these things because they think their marriage will become ugly if they do. But these needs and considerations do exist. For women today, the world has changed to some extent. She need not necessarily get married for social and economic reasons. She has a choice. She can take care of her own economics and social situations. It was not so a hundred years ago. There is a little bit of freedom now. At least two of the reasons why you need to get married are out. You have to consider the other three. Psychologically, do you need a companion in your life? Do you need emotional companionship? And how strong are your physical needs? You must look at this as an individual. This is not a social prescription – everyone gets married or no one gets married. It is not going to work that way. As an individual, how strong are your needs? Is this some kind of a passing need that you can easily go beyond? If it is, do not get married because it is not worth getting tied up. If you do, it is not just two people but a family that has to face the consequences. I am not saying marriage is wrong. Do you want it, that is the question. Each individual should consider this for himself or herself, not by the social norm
  9. Interesting. Let us first understand why marriage exists. As a human being, either as a man or a woman, you have certain needs. When you were eight years old, if I had asked you about marriage, the question would not have meant anything to you. If I had asked you when you were fourteen, you might have been a little shy because you were considering. Because your body started growing in a certain way and hormones started infecting your intelligence, you were thinking about it. If I had asked you at eighteen, there would have been a clear "yes" or "no, not now" or "not at all", depending on what happened to you between the ages of fourteen to eighteen. The word “marriage” might have acquired a very negative aura around it in certain parts of the world now, because there is a sense of juvenile freedom. Young people in some societies perceive marriage as a bad thing. When you are young, you are against it, because your physical body is in a certain mode. Marriage looks like a bondage and a chain. You want to do things in a certain way. But slowly, when the body weakens, once again you wish there was someone with you in a committed way.
  10. Why no marriage? Also how are you gonna have kids without marriage? You don't want the kids to have unstable family.
  11. Well ..primarily that life is full of suffering and we don't ask the child for his /her permission if they want to live this life that can be awful sometimes.
  12. Good idea ?
  13. Well..you most certainly can . That's how powerful Leo's videos can be .
  14. Hru Mr.one post ? Of course. You are the only thing that exists ..
  15. Because I'm conscious right now. And you are conscious right now .yet there is only one now and one entity that is conscious right now and only one now...without simultaneously happening. according to the multiverse model, all possible outcomes are actually realized, not just "possible". By definition they are possible. The point of this theory is that all possible outcomes are indeed realized in some so called "parallel universe". So yes, according to this view, in these alleged "parallel universes" there are other versions of "me" --- the "me" that could have been, or could be, or could become, but not the "me" that actually was, is, or will be in this Universe. It's based on a well known theory in modern physics.
  16. Its precisely because God is infinite that there cannot be anything outside of God/your consciousness.
  17. It depends on which perspective you are viewing it from. Like I said from the absolute truth perspective...there is only your pov right now and nothing else. What about my pov ? You can view it as nonexistent and that would be correct. Or you can view it as your future pov and that would be correct. In both cases the only actual pov is the one you are living right now. Thats correct.
  18. @Zeroguy you are not showing enough interest or respect to the conversation for me to answer your question. You are not seriously asking. You are just fooling around. So no answer for you.
  19. @Gesundheit2 no worries..I stopped taking you seriously a long time ago .
  20. Look... Obviously other people exist as objects of perception in my direct experience.. That's undeniable.. I go out.. I see people everywhere. But are these things" subjects"? Do they have internal self-awareness as I do? Is there someone behind their eyes? It there anybody out there other than me?. The solipsism philosophy doesn't say yes or no to that question contrary to what most people mistakenly misunderstood it.. Solipsism states that one's own mind or subjective experience of the world is the only "certain" thing to exist.. And the existence of other individual minds is "impossible to verify". In other words you are absolutely certain that you are aware right now.. But it's impossible to be certain that I'm (someone here) aware.. In fact why I'm talking to "you"? .. I should say I am aware and "you" are the unsettled mystery. The problem with solipsism is not whether it's objectivey true or not(is it actually the case that I am the only one out there)..but is that it is absolutely true subjectively regardless of that. You are trapped inside your own subjective experience in any case.. So even though I am aware right now from my pov.. From your pov that doesn't matter and there is no such thing.. There is only your awareness.. There is no such thing as "my awareness" in your awareness.. There is only these words in front of you right now and that's the actualilty of what is.. Anything else is just assumptions you add on top of it.."ofcourse there is someone there writing these words.. They couldn't just write themselves lol".. Really?. In your dream.. The entire dream and all the people inside of it..and their actions.. Are nothing but your creation.. They have no Reality of their own outside your imagination.. The only real thing in the dream underneath all the scattered phenomenon is you.
  21. This is not a belief system. This is something you can become directly conscious of .but you will never do as long as you are endlessly mentally masturbating and using toxic skepticism to avoid doing the real work of actually awakening and deconstructing your entire mind and reality . But hey ..that's the last thing the ego would like to do .so I totally get where you are coming from.
  22. Yes .that's why I said my pov Is not actually happening until you EXPEPERIENCE it .any once you experience it, it will no longer be a "future ", incarnation but a present one. Of course it can't be certain. From the absolute perspective you are correct..only the present moment is real .the future (and the past for that matter ) are Imaginary. But then again from the relative perspective they do exist as thoughts .I mean even the present is imaginary absolutely speaking. But you have to consider both the absolute and relative perspective. I agree 100%
  23. No. There is not multiple POVs happening simultaneously. I'm you in a future incarnation . Right now only you exist. Nobody else. You will reincarnate and live through my pov .but until then my pov is not actual for you until you actually experience my pov .at which point it will no longer be "my" pov but yours .
