Someone here

Brother please strike some balance between seriousness and fun. I'm talking life and death issues here . Osho also says "smoke consciously and joyfully " .

The crazy thing is at the end of the day after the hustle and bustle it boils down to "JUST STOP". Same applies to Meth..to Cocaine..to pornography..to fast food ..etc But willpower alone won't work .I. remember when I was 20 yo and was addicted to jerking off I would distract myself with ice cream. I would put some mouthwatering ice cream in front of me without actually eating .and whenever i get an erection I eat ice cream because sugar reduces lust and libido . Some kind of method or trick is required.

I see . If you might engage me for a sec ..why are cigarettes made of CO and tar ? It's literally written on every ciggies pack in the world "Tar is a cancer-inducing substance ". So why they put it in it ? Why not just nicotine and something that smells nice and euphoric and that's it ? Do you recommend something specific? Like a certain shape or brand of the vape ? Definitely smoking burns fat .smoking numbs the taste receptors in the tongue which makes food taste like shit .

Love it . Enjoy 🍻

No shit. You are only going to know when you die ..if it even going to happen in the first place. Don't take death for granted.

If you truly 10000% certain that you've grasped solipsism to be irrefutabley absolutely true you wouldn't post this . You'd be in a 24/7 state of shock and suicidal existinital crises. Or maybe you will experience happiness that there are no words that exists to describe. But definitely you won't post to tell "others ".

@UnbornTao there is no separate self or ego . There is nobody in the driver seat of my body .I have no idea how my fingers are typing right now..classic no-self stuff.nothing new here. perception does not exist. Perception means there is a subject perceiveing an object. Like photons land on a tree and gets reflected into your eye balls then to your vision center in the brain . No such thing. You are NOT looking at the screen right now .you are the screen. All in all ..both points are absolutely disconnected from the topic of solipsism. Don't get cute and say "well there is no you to begin with therefore how can you be the only one "? You can do better .

Kindly explain the distinction +address the second comment underneath the one you just quoted.

One of a kind you are mate . Please keep posting more frequently. Your posts hit me like a train (that's a complement btw ).

It's not armchair philosophy. I'm not talking about fluffy hypothesis like quantum auto creation field or something like that..I'm investigating direct experience as is . This requires careful attention to what is actually going on vs what you "think " is going on . Your eyes lid the world before you .you are literally projecting reality out from inside your skull. You are the source of reality . Notice that Reality comes from inside your being and projected as external world and not the other way around . Again ..zero speculation here ..just study what is actually happening in your direct sensory experience.

Lol. You seriously going to offload the responsibility of creating reality to something external to you ? You go to sleep..existence goes poof...you awaken..existence goes live stream. Isn't that suspicious?

BTW guys anyone here has an understanding of what dreams are ? Not from the materialist paradigm as electricity moving through neurons but like fucking bizarre hallucinations floating in empty space . If there was a pill I could take that will make me not dream at all in my entire future life I would sacrifice one of my two testicles for it .

@UnbornTao dude stop talking like this .its weird .

@UnbornTao solipsism is true and false simultaneously. Others are conscious..but your consciousness is all that exists as far as you are concerned. Do you give a shit about anything or anyone but yourself ? Right now as you typing a response to me ,you are responding to your understanding not to what I meant.

Please add a bolded font disclaimer at the top. Some unstable folks here might lose their beans ..even though your cute nightmare is nothing compared to what kind of hellish realms consciousness can imagine. To reduce nightmares: listen to ASMR. Imagine beautiful flowers and rainbows and women (or handsome dudes if you are straight ) or listen to soothing music as you drift off .

OK thank you .then we are good to go 🍻 A point though to discuss..awakening to Jesus or as she describes it "saved by Jesus " just can't possibly pan out. It's not the be all end all . This is not awakening. This is religion. Jesus is god but God is not just Jesus. Even in the bible it says god causes his rain to fall and the sun to shine onto the good people and the transgressors. That's the whole beauty of god .it's free .its unlimited. It's unconditional. You are loved and accepted by God no matter what kind of sicko criminal you are .you don't have to worship Jesus or Buddha or Leo. Literally any spiritual teacher will do the trick .and then you grasp what these teachers are pointing to and then you are happy . Jesus died 2000 years ago and there is not a single bone left from corpse .present moment is god ..truth..way ..and life .

OK I apologise. What seems to be your problem here ? What are we discussing? I merely observed Flowerfaeiry's "Jesus awakening " and said that its really difficult to deprogram your mind from religious indoctrination because the beliefs you get brainwashed with in your childhood tend to stick with you till your last breath . Regarding your OP. I agree 👍. What we are as God are birthless and deathless .

Stop being cute . I meant we both are engaging in pointless discussions about religion and all I'm saying religion is fake spirituality and Jesus is NOT The Way and Truth and Life ..not exclusively.

Solipsism is weird . It says I'm the only one. But how could I be the only one if there are no others?😵‍💫

@Mellowmarsh the problem is you know exactly what i am talking about . But im not attached .this forum is not for spreading religious dogma .

@UnbornTao I'm waiting for the final edit.

I know it was rhetorical. Bottom line is this ..Jesus is a thought in your head .there is no such thing as a Jesus 😂. He never even existed. The past is imaginary. Entire universe and all of your memories came to being last Thursday

What you are doing here is called updating the Christian religion to a new agey version . Go to a priest in Sunday church and tell him hell is symbolic and see how that works out . And btw the reason I keep stressing this point about Islam is because the Bible was written by human beings like Matthew and Luke and Moses etc whereas quran is supposed to be the literal words that God uttered with his lips .it's only few decades and Islam will be the most worldwide spread religion and it will toss Christianity since the west doesn't really take Christianity seriously anyways. People shag each other's on the beach so come on .

First..define what exactly is awakening to" Jesus " ? What if I told you that I saw Muhammad in my dreams and he told me say la ilaha illa Allah and you become more dervishic than Rumi. On a serious note ..all religions has a kernel of truth .I'm not saying to take a shit on holy books . But I'm afraid you won't fully awaken until you do so .

Tried Vaping . Kinda odd but it's even more addictive to me .especially because they flavour it mangos and vanilla. This in itself makes the experience more exotic .I'm actually gradually decreasing the Nicotine concentration. I used to smoke 0.6 mg Nicotine cigarettes but now I buy 0.4 mg Nicotine. I didn't know that it's not the Nicotine itself that causes health issues .maybe it's the Tar. But Nicotine is the addictive substance .is that correct?
