Someone here

You are taking shit out of context purposely and I'm not gonna play this game lol. Watch Leo's recent episode about perspectives to understand what I'm talking about.

A tree is a tree is a tree. A bird is a bird is a bird. A=A=A. This is the most common sense logical rule ever.. If we cannot agree on this one we cannot agree on anything else because the very foundations are screwed.. And So the conversation will turn into a meaningless talk about nothing.. And becomes a waste of time aka mental masturbation.

The difference between "belief" and "fact "is relative. And that itself is a relative belief and therefore a relative fact and therefore.. Make whatever you want with it...

OK so what? Oh you are your dog? Cool and so what? Are you actually experiencing life through the perspective of your dog right now? No you aren't.. So don't run away from this human experience and experience it fully.. When you become a dog you can worry about that later.

There is nothing to teach because there is nothing to get because there is nothing to attain because everything is passing. Let that shit go.

@zeroISinfinity What does it help you or anyone else to babble "there are no others.. You are all alone"?. Really what is that supposed to do or to mean? The underlying oneness of existence doesn't change the fact that it appears fragmented and distinct and there is surely others from that relative POV.. Here I am you are talking to me right now for F sake lol. So please stop repeating that nonsense if you don't understand what it means .. It doesn't help anyone and just creates confusion and people conflating it with solipsism.

You said there are no others.. And you are talking to an other telling him that there are no others.. I can't help but laugh sorry.

You are telling an other that he doesn't exist. You are Infinitely hilarious.

Thanks to everyone for the helpful advice. Truly appreciate it. It's hard to respond to all of that tho and also I'm not interested in arguing here lol. Just keep posting helpful stuff .

Whether it's drugs.. Food.. Smoking.. Video games or anything else.. What's the one key point that one should understand and apply to quit addiction? Ofcourse by one point won't be enough.. Quitting addiction is a complicated process and takes multiple steps.. Time and effort etc. But I'm not interested in detailed discussion here. If you can summarize it all in just one key piece of insight to quit any addiction.. What would it be?

What if what I truly want is the thing that I'm addicted to?

Thanks bro. I can resonate with the anger thing and the being aware of how it makes you feel and how you are running aware frok confronting emotions.

Yes it comes and goes. What can help when one is being stuck at it when it comes?

I don't know. Maybe because the something that I want just happens to be unhealthy?. Well happiness and fulfillment.

Intersting. How do I know that I want to quit smoking?? Well I honestly don't want to.. More like I need to because of the health consequences. How to reconcile that?

Accepting the addiction and just keep indulging in it? Hmm sounds so effective in quitting lol.

@Tobia what is the biggest thing you can gain? Notice how petty that is. What is the biggest thing you can lose? Notice how petty that is.

Well my awakening is incomplete then lol.

Well I didn't say love.. The love thing is tricky and don't even get me started on this one lol. You said the" heart " as an opposite to the mind.. I'm not sure what are you talking about?. I know pure awareness and the intellectual mind.

@ivankiss lol wtf. Srs tho.. What heart are you talking about? Just What kind of Maya levels are you falling into lol ?

Maya level. I don't buy your emotional poetic wisdom nuggets. And your guitar doesn't do it either. I'm not a naive high-school girl lol. Jk lol ❤️

Paradox is essential. Thingness itself is a paradox. Because it's absolutely impossible for something to exist yet here it is. In Buddhism they talk about emptiness "sunyata". It doesn't mean nothingness or what you think of the concept of zero. But basically the lack of any substantial existence to all of phenomenon. Always changing. Insubstantial yet appears as if it's so solid and real. Tempting you to grasp at it.. Only to realize there is nothing there to grasp.. Yet it reappears again and you are decieved again like a fool.. Sweet cycle lol.

Watch the last few minutes when he talked about Maya.

@justfortoday any story about reality doesn't explain a dam thing. They are all equally false. A description is never an explanation.. When you tell me for example that objects fall in the ground because of gravity or because of consciousness you didn't explain anything either way.. Because what the F is gravity or consciousness lol?. It's just pure actuality that is prior to any attempt of describing. I prefer to accept reality as it is and not get lost in conceptual stories that Will always fall short. Trying to use thoughts and concepts to grasp the ungraspable like trying to use your ears to eat.

A tree is a tree is a tree.. Duh!
