A belief is something that you think, but don't think about. Ha! See! It's completely possible to have accurate insights at the personal level which are communicable and easily understood, as best as language can do. Moreover, depending on the recipient, the insight can have different levels of depth. It's never gonna be the same.

No schedule. It depends on how I am feeling and what I have to do. I usually wake up spontaneously at 3-4ich AM, sometimes before, depending on when I go to bed. Generally, I'm not able to sleep more than 4-5 hours continuously during night, and 1-2 hours during day. Lately, I've been feeling more sleepy but haven't adjusted/recovered fully yet. I don't usually set alarms, but when I do, I usually wake up right before it runs.

There is nothing but the physical world. How? Idk. But it happens. And who said the eyes are necessary? The distinction between subject and object is illusory. It's made out of thoughts.

@LostStudent Hey there! I'm following your updates and I'm glad that everything is improving. I hope you'll get lucky with that guy The further you go with meditation, the better you'll get at it. Eventually, you will be able to carry a calm meditative state with you all the time. That's the ultimate goal, to have a layer of awareness that filters in and out all of your thoughts and emotions, and not only during the session. I noticed that you may be struggling with the feeling of loneliness. Have you contemplated why that might be the case? During meditation, when that feeling comes up, how do you deal with it? I find it really helpful to question the feelings that arise spontaneously. Ideally, what you want to do is to reach a point of relative equanimity and clarity during meditation (little to almost no mind chatter), and then from there start contemplating. This trick will make contemplation much better and easier. You'll get very profound insights about yourself, especially if you ask high quality questions. For example, regarding loneliness, you can ask yourself; Why do I feel lonely sometimes? What is the value that I am seeking with trying not to be alone? Can being alone have value? What does the feeling of loneliness tell me? What is the deeper message it's trying to signal to me? Is this feeling good or bad or neutral? What are the exact thoughts that accompany the feelings? What is my subconscious mind trying to communicate to me? How can I be friends with my subconscious mind? Can I accept this feeling or even be happy with it? What do others have to say about this topic? Who is a good example of someone who is comfortable with being alone and at the same time has relationships? What can I learn from them? How can I use my time alone more wisely? Your answers to these questions will be unique to you. The point is to know yourself better, on a moment-to-moment basis, by shedding the layers of false conditioning that you may have been programmed with. And from there, you will be able to meet your most authentic self and live according to your highest values and deepest desires, and in full harmony with your mind, body, and spirit. Good luck.

Intelligence is an appearance, and all appearances are limited and have downsides. For example, an intelligent guy may not be as strong as an average guy. The time he spends on sculpturing his mind, another guy would be spending on sculpturing his body. There are absolutely no absolute positives, if that's what you're asking about. You can't have everything, and you shouldn't even be trying to. Your focus should be directed more inwards.

There's a difference between thinking and having firm beliefs. It's the difference between having thoughts, and having thoughts about thoughts. A difference in awareness/meta-cognition.

Lol totally a clickbait. Terrorists don't think. If they would think, they would be afraid, but they're not. And as for the thread, you should really, really study this video:

Wow! That is interesting. According to the pictures, I would be fine with a 4 and above. But within the 6 to 9.5 range, I would disagree on the rating. Cuz to me it's kinda upside down.

Going berserk is a @StateOfMind Self-Actualization/self-development is not.

Case closed.

Nothing. Nowhere. None of your business. That's because when you go to sleep, the "I" that was you in the waking dream gets smaller than it is in the waking dream. It becomes smaller and merges with the cells of the brain and occupies one cell to dream in. So you actually change sizes and become smaller, and that's why your brain (the dream world) becomes so big. Because you're using the wrong instruments. The eyes can't see imagination. The mind can.

I edited that part out cuz I realized it's problematic. But notice, you can't imagine neither death nor non-existence. That should tell you something.

Get this. Death will happen, but you will not experience it. Nobody can explain that to you any further. You either get it, or you don't. And anything said other than that is just thoughts.

No. It's the exact opposite.

The Truth is The Lie.

@Moon Exactly! ? Haters will hate. I'll stop when it's illegal. Or, maybe not, and catch me if you can. I only did it once to gain this wisdom that I am presenting here. But you guys take everything too seriously. Relax.

@Elevated LMFAO! Haters will hate.

That's just your inexperienced pov. Try it and see That's such a silly thing to say, and it completely misses the point that I made above. That's why I initially said that some bodies are hotter than others, to include this point and prevent such silly arguments. @Elevated Don't be silly and project your fears here. It's just a pic of a man's organ of love.

Awareness is not a joke. I may have gone too far beyond human, maybe below idk, but I'm sure that I am not a human, as of now. Now I struggle so much to think a thought or feel an emotion. Even to write such a simple thing takes too much effort. God! I'm a fool. I have wrecked my mind. But I need to study. The good news, though, is that it's not an irreversible equation. I can think and feel again. I have been in and out of this state many times, and I know how it works. In order to move out of a no-mind state, it requires initiation. A sacrifice. One thought. Just one. That's all it takes. Then again, the problem is that it's always been a snowball effect. Once the ball starts rolling, it keeps growing. Regardless of the nature of the ball, be it thoughts or emotions or awareness. The wolf you feed the most will win. Good, now the ball started rolling again. Life is easy, but mastering it is not. But what is mastery? Hmmm, not slavery? What's wrong with slavery? Nothing. It's just the social construct illusion. Fear. Without that fear, I would probably have dropped out of school even before the start. I don't like studying theory. I like doing things in the world. I like practice. Practice is much easier than theory. Even physical pain is much easier than psychological suffering. There's a place in this world for you, whoever you are and whatever you may be. Still, it takes work to manipulate that place. That's what makes people think that life is hard when it isn't hard at all. Life is designed in a way that increases the strengths of the strong, and the weaknesses of the vulnerable. Fucking ADHD won't let me have a productive session. I can sit still in meditation for hours easily, but I can't focus my attention on a fucking piece of paper with some ink on it. I studied for one hour, which wasn't very productive, but I can already feel my brain actually literally cooked up, like there's a spark of fire up there. No wonder why the mind and ego are interchangeable terms. My mind, at least currently, is too dense to be able to comprehend so much information in a short time. I guess it takes time to warm up, and it gets better with consistency, like a muscle. I lack mental stamina, probably for genetic reasons. My mind is not energy efficient. Now, I feel hungry. I want to scream and punch someone. And I want to bite. I've never been able to study well ever since I got into college. During the second year, I had tried to brute force studying. I was very neurotic, and that increased the intensity even more. At that point, I could not maintain it any longer. I could not touch a book until the next year. I barely passed the third year. And with the fourth year, I attempted to brute force things again, but at that point it was too much to maintain. My mind stopped working, just like Windows PC. Lol what a digression! I was supposed to be studying now, but instead I'm journaling this in my notes to post it later when I get back home on the actualized.org forum. But I won't study anymore cuz I have reached my limit for the day. This place is nice, though. The university has opened a new hall for students to study in, for free. I like it here, it's warmer than home and has comfortable chairs and tables and everything. I think it'll help me correct my bad posture too. I have conditions, both external and internal, that make studying nearly impossible, and on top of that, my body is over-sensitive to cold. I will make sure to come here everyday and study. My first exam is on 31st this month. The remaining five, I haven't looked yet. Mood right now.

There is nothing special about this post

Same thing for us, men. But usually the other stuff are included unconsciously, and it all gets blamed on the looks when actually looks aren't solely the case. For example, confidence is essential for attraction, but since most women have it already (for some unknown reasons lol), men don't focus on it. Have you ever wondered why dancing is so appealing to men? It's not really the bodies of the women, but rather the power and confidence that dancing demonstrates. Of course, looks are on a scale, and some bodies are hotter than others, but you get the idea.

Hell, no. Lol no. Try massive cold sending. It works, but you gotta be consistent, just like with cold approach.

According to the latest updates I have, Leo thinks that total freedom = chaos.

There is a middle-way. Be a Buddha and accept everyone as they are, but don't become an idiot like them on a personal development forum.
