AtheisticNonduality

That guy seems cool.

I know that guy from the show "Midnight Gospel." EDIT: Not that good of a TV show.

I'm not saying the Red Hot Chili Peppers are turquoise. I'm saying this song is turquoise.

Ogre is the embodiment of green, fraying into yellow. Appearing on a Russian pseudo-propaganda network to decry authoritarianism was also pretty subversive in my opinion.

https://blogs.scientificamerican.com/observations/what-does-quantum-theory-actually-tell-us-about-reality/ Why do people demonize Deepak Chopra for positing quantum mechanics as an indication toward idealism when real quantum physicists do the same thing? I don't like Chopra, but still.

@Adam M I got "Leo" as my sign. Some of it didn't describe me at all, and the rest of it was so generic that it could apply to huge amounts of people. I just don't see how the locations of rocks in the sky at my birth could affect my personality so much.

Pigs are certainly more conscious than insects.

I believe this is you:

@Mystica45 I dislike Christians as much as you probably, but you're grasping at straws.

Nope.

Did the physical universe exist before sentient beings existed?

No, you can only have knowledge of the things you can experience, and you are experience.

@Leo Gura Eating is silly when you realize you're eating yourself? Infinity loves murder because it HAS TO, because infinity is directly dependent on finities such as the mental conditions that lead to murder. Murder wouldn't just happen in a nondual state because murder is impossible with no subject and object. It would happen because you wouldn't destroy something you love.

@Leo Gura Why do you discourage murder? For purely practical reasons?

You're removing all meaning from the word's "bad" and "negative." Infinite love would never lead to murder obviously, and finite love only exists because finity is a requisite for infinity. Clearly, you value you love, so why is more love not good and less love not bad? What is the distinction between "less love = less good" and "less love = bad."

@Leo Gura People like Sam Harris and Christopher Hitchens need to exist, or we'd all be stuck in blue.

Am I supposed to find truth in the words of Jesus of Nazareth?

Prove a physical world.

@Leo Gura Are you saying the people who program machine learning with chess bots don't actually understand how the processes are working?

@Meta-Man Consciousness controls brains that control consciousness. If I am in a dream, I can imagine an object in the dream world that affects my consciousness. This is what brains and psychedelics do in physical reality. Give yourself a lobotomy, and you will no longer be anywhere close to enlightenment. It's just a fact.
