The thing is they are dangerous to Israel because of Israel’s colonialism and breaking the two state solution. Iran I don’t think is inherently dangerous if Israel actually sowed for peace and spent decades actually trying to normalize relations like they did with Egypt and Jordan. So yes Iran is now a huge threat to Israel but why you think that is?

Sure, and I’m not saying Sahdguru hasn’t done some really helpful things for people and the planet. I like him. I just don’t take part in this dynamic, no need to give my power away like that.

I think the Hindu guru dynamic specifically emphasizes hierarchy though and I’ve not found that necessary or even helpful in spirituality.

The Israelis that live in all those settlements too are radical as all hell. You got to be kinda crazy to basically set your house up on "no man's land" in the sense of it being basically where a ground war will be fought. A more centrist cabinet couldn't move those people if they tried.

Thank you! I would hope that just my honesty and integrity and the entertainment value of my videos would help me find my audience who appreciate what I am creating. I'm hoping the value I could provide in terms of monetization would be through 1) youtube ads 2) special newsletter and videos through Patreon 3) consultation services for people who want to talk to me 1 on 1. What do you think?

It's neither here nor there for me. I try not to draw these comparisons about people when it comes to spirituality. If he says some things that help your journey or seeking, more power to you. I like some of his YouTube videos but I definitely would not create a hierarchy of this facet, guru culture is based around it and from my point of view it leads to power imbalances and brainwashing like you said.

this flooding will affect the election, NC is a swing state. wonder what this means for voting.

What in the hell is going to happen... Tired of this old ass shit fucking catching up to us. When will this shit end and peace return to the land.

I definitely agree, Hindu dogma and tradition creates a hierarchy that can easily create these social situations where abuse/exploitation can occur. Do I think this is some bomb shell? No. Is it possible Someone in Isha could step on the wrong toes of powerful people that causes this? Sure. It could be any number of things. I'm not holding my breathe for controversy but I'm not surprised. Just because you are being honest and running an charity organization built on honesty doesn't mean there may be one or two employees who are dishonest and bring about some issue like this. You see corporations get raided and subpoenaed all the time. It's time we recognize that large organizations based on spirituality that deal with money and memberships will face the same issues sometimes due to any number of miscommunications or even corruptions. We have ridiculous purity tests for these gurus and organizations. Sahdguru is not above you or anyone, stop this "he's more conscious" bullshit.

I don’t believe suffering is something you liberate yourself from. It is something you choose to create. So stop it. Suffering is an illusive word that makes it difficult for western thinking to understand what is actually unfolding. Suffering is an emotion that you create because of the belief system you have. So yes it is possible to no longer create painful emotions depending in your point of view. In terms of ending physical pain and all the challenges that come in life? That will not ever end as long as you have a body. Quite simply because of this and it isn’t too difficult to reason why or understand why. Your body is always changing and so is your life. Quite natural. This change means constant change in action and adaptability, in order to navigate it. Refusing to change or sticking with the familiar is what keeps us in one place and often times leads to most of our problems. You have to get up and work on yourself, run and exercise to keep healthy, manage your money and of course make time for what you love to do and for what you wish to create with this life. So I would ask why do you have to create a painful emotion for yourself in this process? Couldn’t you just accept change, everything changes, and then ride that wave to what you desire? Why does a painful emotion or self doubt or believing one is not whole is necessary, even in the most challenging of time? So yes in this regard even in the most dire situation you don’t have to create disharmony and suffering but no, challenges and change will always be here as long as you’re alive.

They are an Easter egg. Let’s ask everyone who has died though to confirm? I’ll see you at the graveyard and we can ask there death is the ultimate acceptance of the unknown. The event horizon.

Oh god they are going in. This is going to greatly affect the USA as well.

The thing is for me it isn’t a side hustle scheme. I live in South America and am making videos of living here. And I want to inspire people to travel and tell interesting true stories of my experiences. I hope people will give me money cause I inspire them and they want to sub to my Patreon or ask me for advice on how to travel. Also giving consultations on spirituality. It’s not a grift to me it’s my passion and life purpose to be a video maker, artist and life coach for people who want to travel.

I want to grow my channel to make this level and basically monetize it through the same means. Only 300 subs though lol. I need more.

I’m looking for higher perspective beliefs and whatnot to attract both money while doing my life purpose and passions (video making, coaching, spiritual teaching, culture and learning languages). what was the turning point for you all here who are doing something that earns you good money but is also your passion. Not one or the other since I know there are many in demand skills that earn a lot of money but are not remotely my passion. How did you all achieve having your dream vocation come to be and aligned with money?

So you believe all beliefs are illusionary by nature? embrace the paradox

I can see you’re an idealist like me. Don’t get me wrong I do enjoy talking about stuff like this but we have to focus on our present lives and being pragmatic and balanced. I would love for a world where everyone didn’t have to trade their body and time so much to do meaningless tasks just to survive while someone else exploits this. But reality as it is now has this aspect to it and we as spiritual people in this community can try to make the best of it and be the change we want to see. I’m trying to go about what I do as honestly as possible. Just focus on this for now cause trust me no one is coming to save us. We have everything now to get ourselves right and get our money in orders. Then when we have a solid foundation we can be a greater force for positive changes.

I can relate to this. This is actually a mistake I made. I was reading law of attraction and when I was starting to get into this sometimes it was hard to tell just how it works and what its implications are. I was under the interpretation that I could sort of manifest everything I want how I want when I want but this is not true from my experience. It seems to be there is a deeper lesson of accepting reality as it is and going with the flow while being fully engaged with and responsible for whatever is unfolding in life. I learned that the law of attraction can be taught better, it needs to be better described how it works Yes there will be times where we will faces challenges, have to think pragmatically, do tasks we may not prioritize as our favorite, etc. I’m not 100% sure it has to be unenjoyable though. Since we create our emotions we can still create fulfilling emotions for mundane tasks because we know showing up and committing to our growth is worth in and of itself to feel good about all the time. I think when living in total clarity and flow all things that are seen as not fun no longer become painful to do but just another changing variety in reality and life. The thing is when I was making my earlier mistake I wasn’t entirely in flow, I would disrupt my own flow and would resent certain tasks for not being enjoyable to me and I realize now this is not a good way to lived

Really cool trip report, I don’t have this kind of relationship with my parents to do something like this with them so it’s nice to see someone does.

There are I think it’s worth experimenting some. There is no one right path. I believe we have to find a balance with our current situations and also our beliefs. I wanted to believe for so long I could just make my videos and stay positive and accept whatever unfolds and this would mean then my channel would blow up, but no, this takes time and it takes really being flexible to take on new skills and expand on ideas. I’m by no means saying don’t follow your passion. My passion is to become a travel vlogger and have my own community and audience big enough to support me financially. I’m just saying be flexible with what it takes to get there. I’m going to focus on investing and starting an airbnb which most conservatively will save me on rent and at best earn me several thousand a month. So I think we have to be open and adaptable! We will get there don’t worry. We just have to really grow in the process sometimes in more ways than we thought.

the Israel delusion is wild. And to think I actually was taught this was true. It’s so blatantly colonialism and the wild thing is this belief system breaks the moment you tinker with any of their constants. Switch out any country for any ethnic group. It doesn’t make any sense.

Thanks dude, this is really helpful my question is though do you believe we can still be spiritual while grinding? I think if we are staying honest and true we are growing spiritually and expanding our consciousness. I agree that the more nitty gritty of my ideals or the more careless artistic passions of mine may have to be less prioritized of the pragmatic however I’m trying to find a balance. Don’t want a situation in my life where my dreams went wayside to die while I lost sight of my destination. I will crate my dream life and manifest my passions, I think I need to expand though and definitely bring in pragmatism to balance everything though.

This is the key, “go inside and find your true value” it’s essential for a long term healthy relationship

This is a good point to be made. We as a society really build our wellbeing on shifting sands, relationships. We place our value outside of ourselves and become so attached to the changing tides we are easily toppled when they do. I’ve really gone through a lot of transformations in the last year to come out of this. I think being single is far too often looked at as a bad thing when in fact it can be incredibly powerful for self work and focus. I don’t see being single as a bad thing. I do think however having opportunities for a relationship are also great. I want to stay single for a while though after a 3+ year relationship recently came to an end. I think it’s a great way to know yourself.

Bro was listening to his advisors, corruption is such that where truth is not valued so everyone up and down the chain of command lies. He basically fell for his own propaganda how Russia could steamroll Ukraine in a day. Ukraine intelligence was so confused before the invasion, it’s on record. The initial invasion confused Ukraine cause the country is so big and Russia didn’t build up sufficient amount of troops.
