Someone here

Dude .. Please enjoy your life . Lighten up .

I totally disagree . The suggestion seems to be that Leo should soften his views or totally lie about them to avoid the possibility that someone might misuse his words and kill themselves . Leo’s words alone can never cause another person to take their own life. Leo’s work is fundamentally about pursuing and communicating “ The Truth” (or at least what he thinks is the truth )..not muddying his message to avoid every possible misunderstanding. If the subject of death or suicide arises then it should be discussed honestly and rigorously rather than avoided or distorted out of fear of how a small minority of people might interpret it. You want him to straight away lie about his honest opinion on suicide just so that no one will kill himself ? Nope . It’s none of his business that a lot of people are suicidal here. A spirituality forum is NOT a psychiatric hospital.Its purpose is to explore ideas including difficult and controversial ones. That doesn’t mean people should be reckless or insensitive.. but it does mean that discussions cannot be silenced by the most vulnerable possible audience. Otherwise meaningful inquiry becomes nearly impossible. The forum already makes this distinction clear. It includes guidelines and disclaimers stating that it is a place for discussion..not a substitute for professional mental health care. Someone going on some forum and reading a guy saying “death is love “ and then kill himself is such a cartoonish thing to believe. Who would actually do that ? Do you think people lack basic common sense or reasoning? People who kill themselves do that because they are not seeing any hope or light at the end of the tunnel of their daily hellish suffering.

@Eskilon how’s that for a perfect prediction from me ?

Is entertainment really toxicity? That sounds more like cynicism than wisdom. I can only imagine that someone who makes that claim has witnessed a great deal of pain or darkness in the world. Forgive me if that’s an unfair assumption..but it’s genuinely surprising to hear entertainment described as something that “retards the mind". Do you think there might be a need to reconnect with your feminine energy?the part that embraces beauty..emotion..spontaneity.. and lightness? Obviously the point of life is not to suffer . If there is no joy in life then seriously why live ? Is there a mentally sound person who enjoys suffering and despise happiness?

Nope . I had to google it actually. Btw hey I’m super happy to see active on here lately .

Haha.. you’ve just guaranteed a 0–0 snoozefest. 😂

@Mellowmarsh glad I made you laugh . You are a very likeable person btw . You and James would make for great couples .

But Who’s looking for a girlfriend?Apparently there’s just the story that Someone here is searching for someone else. That’s the dream. If a girlfriend appears..that’s what seems to be happening..it’s just what arises or what seem to be happening apparently . If she doesn’t..that’s what’s happening too. The joke is that nobody catches anyone. There isn’t anyone to catch.. and there isn’t anyone doing the catching.But the search can be wonderfully entertaining.

This clarifies a lot about who you are actually. Since we never saw how you look like despite being here for nearly a decade lol ..but it puts things into perspective. You do come off as a very stoic no nonsense guy . But also if posting daily on the forum didn’t give you that dopamine hit ..you wouldn’t do it .

Sorry but what’s the argument for that? Euthanasia can be morally justified in cases of hopeless unbearable suffering. It’s easy to underestimate the kinds of suffering that exist in this world until you witness them firsthand. If someone as intelligent and self-aware as Leo contemplated suicide because of some stomach or digestive problems imagine what people with far more devastating conditions might endure. Think of elderly people who are completely disabled and have lost all independence or those who are incontinent and require constant care. Think of someone who has lost both arms or legs in a war or someone who survived a fire but suffered catastrophic burns over most of their body.ther are also children born with extremely rare and severe genetic disorders like two heads stuck in one body Go spend some time in a hospital’s emergency room or intensive care unit. You’ll see that unimaginable suffering is a reality for many people. euthanasia can be morally valid in certain extreme cases where there is no realistic hope of recovery and the suffering is unbearable.

Good boy .

Very well ..and how exactly is any of that going to help me get a redhead American girlfriend? 😂

Brazil vs Japan today . Knockout stage of 32. 🔥Or depending on your time zone. samba de janeiro . I expect a difficult win for Brazil ..but they will obviously win.

You are in a sense both everything and nothing. Don’t get trapped in these artificial dualities. You are consciousness..but you’re also the contents of consciousness. One could say that your essential nature is pure consciousness rather than the objects appearing within it..but ultimately even that distinction dissolves. If we must use words.. your most fundamental nature is pure empty consciousness. But even that is just a pointer. These terms are meaningless unless they correspond to something in your direct experience. Without that frame of reference..they’re just concepts floating around in your head. Please contemplate this in your direct experience and check what’s being said . Thank you for the Conversation.
