No, it is DIFFERENT. Men won't like it when you tell them it's all about how you look, but 20yrs of experience doesn't tell me otherwise. Women just don't go around lusting after strange men. Imagine if both sexes were like that. There wouldn't be a balance now would it.

I can't tell how many times I've gone out and seen lots of couples, lots of women kissing up on average looking guys and normal man to man relationships. Go to a night club on the weekends. Stay till after hours how many are hooking up. These guys aren't hatch owners and jet flyers. They are regular guys that just knows how to attract women. The post is about options for sex not women looking for status and what a guy can do for them.

I've seen this. Can't tell the narcissists and arrogant beings that they are not a person. They'll tell you how much they are in control and making choices and how humans are the most high and they are soooo doing everything in the life they never asked to be a part of. There is them and there is.....whoever they worship. I'm not saying anybody is God, but I'm saying there's no individual beings in charge of anything. It's so obvious, it's overlooked.

Read and understand my post, guys. I'm not speaking about the secondary cause. I'm speaking of right away, spontaneously, in the moment. Men's options are abundant. What is1000 approaches or 500 or even 50, if that's not abundance. Closing is a different story. I didn't make this shit up. This forum alone shows the abundance of options guys have. Do you think I could find even one or two guys i'd love to freely have sex with within a week's time? Maybe not. Much less every attractive pants that walks by. Takes more than that for most women. Let a guy see a hot sexy chick walking down the street. Then another, then another, then another, then another. He would be drooling and getting a hard on. Tell me a woman would be ready to hit the sack with 10 handsome men that walk by. That's the difference. Again, men have more options for actual sexual preferences. Women only have more abundance when it comes to being approached and doesn't equate to actually having sex. We don't want to have sex with the options you think we have.

What kind of standards do you think a man needs to possess for a female that sees him and says 'oh my gosh, he's so cute, I'd love to fuck his brains out, and will, if he lets me" Standards are out the door then. It's that most women aren't thinking like this; Some are and do, but they are far and few. With men, this is a daily occurrence. More options. It's just their options are limited to who will actually have sex.

Do you think a lot of women are out there fishing out who is valuable to her or not when it comes to wanting to have sex with him or feeling that spontaneous "umph". Not many. The valuable thing comes in when maybe looking for relationship or marriage or if she's looking for things other than sex. I'm referring to her wanting to have sex not looking for a reason to.

This might sound ludicrous and ridiculous, but you really don't know. It's a belief and an assumption. You believe you're alive because you think you know what being alive feels like. Do you know what death feels like. No, because you're dead and there's no one to know. That's also a belief and an assumption. Therefore, that can go both ways. We're so sure that we know what being alive feels like, but we have no idea what the presumed opposite feels like by definition. We can speculate and come up with ideas and concepts about death but if I asked you right now what does death feel like you wouldn't know. How can you tell me what happiness feels like without knowing what sadness feels like. Knowing what being alive feels like MUST result in the already knowing of what death feels like or the difference could not be made or felt.

Anybody can maneuver any situation in any circumstance. Doesn't matter. Cool, calm and collected, in a frenzy, suffering, wise decision, whatever the case may be it's only a decision being made.

People are lonely because they have eyes?

Exactly what you've shared is fine. I'm just trying to see something here (or not). All you've heard about Eckhart are stories. That's fine. I heard his story. How can I say someone's enlightened just from a story I heard.

Ok great, a story. Next.

It's just an inquiry. Curiosity. Could you please share excerpts or something from someone you know of, please.

I bet you there's no one who'll be able to answer the OP's question. We're all calling people enlightened not knowing what they were like before. Knowledge is not enlightenment. A person siting on a throne talking shit is not enlightenment. A person telling you wise stuff is not enlightenment. A monk in a cave is not enlightened. A person saying they don't have a self is not enlightenment. A person period is not enlightenment. We just need to see examples of what we wish to become so we can believe in it ourselves. I want to become like that person, so we slap on a label and call it enlightenment and now we pursue it not knowing the transitional process and who they were before. I will wait for examples, though, and see what we call enlightenment in a person before and after.

Proving my point. There's nothing spoken here that's in opposition to what I said. Infact, it confirmed it. Awakening is not the same as the term enlightenment.

My view on all this stuff is that very rarely we see people talking about the great stuff happening (just like in the news), it's usually the doom and gloom stuff we hear about and now we think it's the majority. Internet and social media are just tools for these things to get more exposure. Depression, anxiety, trauma, loneliness, not getting laid, blah blah, is talked about more than their opposites because it's more juicy and drama-filled. Plenty of people are probably out there not lonely and depressed but who wants to hear about all that.

He said he's awake, not enlightened. There's a supposed difference. Awakening to infinity and God consciousness is not enlightenment. He doesn't even endorse the term as much anymore. Says it's human bullshit; at least how we see it.

You have a problem you outlined in the OP. There seems to also be a problem with some of the responses. So you have a problem being smart, intelligent and philosophical and also a problem with explaining how smart, intelligent and philosophical you are. Seems to be a problem being that way, expressing those traits and the feedback gotten from expressing it. There's only one denominator in all of this. You.

Leo doesn't claim to be enlightened, plus all I see is a lovely bald-headed man on a screen talking. Hehe

Hit the nail on the head.....it's all stories. Appearing and disappearing out of nothing. Nothing is the real deal.

....and he will say a different thing now.

Shows how much there's no one to tell since there's no one in these bodies. You're just telling a story to them and vomiting a bunch of concepts and ideas to no one. Liberation will be how it wants to be, even being unscathed by this message and think you're a looney tune. There's no point to tell or not tell. The result of either will be whatever liberation wants to appear as. Doesn't matter either way.

Now, you're the one talking the crazy shit. See we're all crazy. That's what I get.

The crazy shit is what sounds normal. You ain't get it yet. It's sanity when I talk like that. I'll go back to being insane and talk normal then. "How are you doing today, how's work, got laid lately"?

Oh ok. Seems like liberation already as there's no self, no reality other than what the already no self proclaims it to be, I'm gonna always want things to be different even though I realize it's what it is and time already doesn't exist but what the mind has created. Ok, so liberation is a fantasy for the one that doesn't already exist. I exist but only as an I. Where is it, here, where is here, here, when I move that here moves with me so here is everywhere I go so I exist everywhere and if I'm everywhere then how can I be liberated from something or somewhere. That other place that I was, that I called here before, is no longer here now it's there. If I go there then it becomes here. Which one is it. Where am I here or there. Oh I moved so I'm here and there. Where am I getting liberated from, here....wait, no, over there. Let me go back over there where liberation is found....ooops, it's over here. Geesh, keep me enslaved please. Lol don't mind me, I'm trippin on liberation lsd.

Because after they do all that stuff you're talking about, and they do, they need to pray for their sins for fear of going to hell.
