Someone here

I don’t think they are identical but they are an expression of the same energy or force . That is a feminine energy . Or maybe it’s the other way around ..the feminine energy is an expression of the love and goodness energy . But there can’t be feminine without masculine and vice versa. in Sufism (Islamic mysticism) there is something called “ Jalal and Jamal” . Jamal literally means beauty . God is beautiful..good..loving ..merciful ..like a rose or like romance and sex or music etc . jalal means majesty and mighty . God is also profound and masculine .. like a thunderbolt.. a mountain..death ..etc no matter how you try to “absoluteize” the Jamal part without distorting its meaning it can’t work . Whenever you say “Love “ you can’t help but think about “love “.

Sorry to hear . You are a living breathing soul ..so am I ..so I totally feel your pain. and mad respect for opening up . please utilize the healthcare section and the mental health issues section for this situation. Don’t come at it from “if solipsism is true then my suicide won’t hurt others because there are no others “ ..stop looking for excuses to justify killing your self . That’s spiritual bypassing and obviously is completely off even for you let alone others . Write down your physical & emotional problems and make threads in the sections I mentioned. You are completely anonymous. Nobody will recognize you. I hope you are already doing something about it like I would not wait two seconds to go speak to a specialist. I was suicidal at some point in the past and most people were but they just want to sound like they are tough and unshakable but all of that is lies and ego..you are completely vulnerable..you might go to bed tonight and never wake up again ..so live in alignment with the truth ..that is you are vulnerable. So allow yourself to be vulnerable. Cry ..express emotions.. I hope there are people In your life who you can do that with ..that’s all I can suggest for you.

Interesting. Obviously a comedy show is more immersive than reading a comic ..and a comedy movie is even more immersive. Do you think it’s the fact that actors are real people that takes you out of the story?If someone turned your favorite comic into a movie.. would you have any interest in watching it..or would it still be a no?

oh man the irony of this 😂. Sure you typically enjoy life by staring at bare walls ? Do something constructive and contemplative but enjoy some off time time with booze or something. Unless you’re Jesus Christ or Albert Einstein and you have no time for that because you are supposed to rescue humanity from darkness .

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 .
