Human Mint

I am definitely interested. Personally I would like to work with microdoses, but I think the opportunity of a space like that would help me to crack some code of reality.

I do, I am currently taking a supplement that combines 5 different magnesium sources, but not as powerful as just magnesium glycinate. I take it 2-3 hours before bed.

Hi, I wonder, are you using chatGPT? The structure is identical to the ones the IA spits. I am not judging but I would like transparency. If not, what is your field of study? Sorry for the interrogation.

I agree. In essence what matters the most and what has the most impact is quality. I do a lot of hours just to have more moments of quality.

I have a hard time understanding what you really mean. Are you saying I am just selfish and live in fear? I am actually more interested in deep spiritual topics/facts. Self development is really boring for me, as in the mainstream notion of it. I think is part of human psychology and unavoidable the fact that we'll engage in forms self-development to be better at new things.

How can you be socially useful when you're wasted? I am not saying that people who have bad habits are bad. You can still see goodness in them. I would be drinking whiskey right now if it made me more mature

You can exercise becoming more independent/less dependent on others. Listen to yourself more, be clear about how things make you feel and inspect what is the source of your suffering, i.e why do you suffer at all. If I could only stick to one habit that would improve my life would be doing some kind of physical activity constantly.

I wish this was true. Most people are like childs that need to be told that sugar and alcohol is unhealthy. Is funny because what you describe I see it normally in social groups. I don't believe it is a coincidence you experience that here. This place offers a different dynamic, kind of its own unique thing. Nonetheless it may be a good idea to contemplate the pros and cons of the forum.

What is even more startling is what was being discussed at the moment of the assassination, obviously a direct connection. Look for yourself

Happiness comes from infinity. When you see infinity in any domain of life you will understand happiness.

Brazil is less developed, isn't it obvious?

Bernie Sanders take on this is quite good: He's too old for being a president is what I think. The stress of taking office would harm any good views he has.

I have a book by Asimov where he talks about how he became a good science fiction writer. He essentially read a lot of the genre and started writing his own stuff, he sucked at first. My thoughts are that you should go study formal education on writing so you learn a lot of different genres. But if anything you should read what Asimov says about writing . (book)

It reminded me of JFK assassination I don't understand how bulletproof glass boxes for political discourses was never a thing in USA. A gap in the market. A rather traumatizing event for those present.

I can not know that for you. You may understand a lot in one hour or you may need another five extra hours of deep work. Realistically it will be much more, for examples babies are exposed a lot of hours a day to their native language so they're able to pick it very quickly. But also most of it is not active learning like adults, just the constant exposure so you understand something from different angles. I'm sure if you replicate that you'll see a lot of progress.

I thought so... an idealistic public education should be just that: public. Probably that particular institution is not even worth it, it gives the feeling of having toxic competition and dramatic administration. I would advise people to put some money into their education, since it will be more serious from the begining. I study music in a private school and found no other way of making progress, but the basics still holds: you need consistency. People that work along with their studies make less progress.

That's because you're not training yourself to spot insights, or maybe you don't care

What? Are you sure about that? There are full careers for becoming a writer. What you say is like saying "there isn't any music making courses". If anything you should go with whatever you resonate more, and if that's writing then investigate more because there's absolutely a way. I personally know people who went to study writing after school. Also, you can work part time in an ordinary job while you study so you take it out of your system if you need to

You may find this video interesting. It will explain Norway to you. Why Norway is Becoming the World's Richest Country What I find is for societies to excel in being a good society there needs to be: favorable geography and an equilibrium between free trade and government regulations. Just like the video explains, Norway government lets companies bring the technology and exploit the resources but they still have some degree of sovereignty over the business. They do not completely invade, monopolize and conquest the business nor they let companies run absolutely freely and unchecked.

I use a graphic tablet to take notes in my computer. I use Xournal++ wich is open source and lets you draw over PDFs, before I used One Note from windows but doesn't support pdf files as well as Xournal. No other program (all the paid ones like Acrobat) can do this simple task. If you buy a tactil laptop with pencil then better, but costs more. Graphic tablets are quite cheap and it's like drawing on paper plus the tools of drawing softwares for pc.

I don't know if I understood correctly, but you tried to enter an art school and they asked you a portfolio to aply, before teaching you skills?

Don't underestimate the power of such discussions, if anything they will spark inspiration in spiritual seeking

Context is just ego, right? You pretty much nailed the answer already, context is just a mental construct. And maybe you can't answer the question by creating more context (more structures, mental maps), which is a catch 22

For example realizing illusions the ego constructs, like the illusion of a family, or the illusion of being part of a nation. Imagine if you realize you're constructing your family, then you immediately see past any kind of drama, jealousy, envy, because you identify less with it. And I am explaining just the first stages of spiritual work, which is where I am currently at. But as you may start to see, it goes in the direction of oneness.

Good for you! Actually mind blowing experiences. Those kind of realization requires having a still mind, which occurs in rare occasions...
