belief is what mind takes as truth and therefore mind goes around looking for confirmation to claim that its belief is indeed truth so if you believe christianity is true, you will block anything that suggests otherwise and therefore you created your christian reality in short what you believe is what you see

right? like st augustine said, love then do as you please

was going to say same thing i write to put meat on my ideas for my benefit for my elucidation for my inquiry ... what i write and what i say is what i remember and what i value i aim to forget that i have ever written anything before and i treat every post as a message from god tailor made for me i am happy if people engage with my words but if they don't i still came out ahead so it is win win either way i do love this community and everyone who heartfully shares their words so i am just glad to be here

the time to bed time to rise is life's key ... get that right every day and most stuff falls into place ... no excuses no exceptions no deviations

we all bring assets and debits to the table ... this is a first date conversation, need not be worried about before that ... will not be a deal breaker for everyone though it will be for some ... but it is good that one has this kind of conversation at the beginning ... it is a way of weeding out the players, the creeps, the losers etc bless you today, you will bag a fantastic guy in time i can see that

@leogura this thread is worth a look ... elon musk replies and mentions ketamine

true in the absolute sense yes but if you are the only one in your life doing it, you will get killed off pretty quick so having walls on one's house is plainly a necessary evil

whether you volunteer or not matters not, suffering is actually for your good, it is a messenger telling you not to get attached to a body there is no need to fight what is, you could perhaps look at the 4 noble truths for how to overcome it instead fighting is you playing god

everyone wants to go to heaven, no one wants to die to get there

i think you might enjoy the voice of babaji, there is a twitter that quotes some every day https://twitter.com/ombabajiom/status/1520189461321113601?s=20&t=XXj9n-08WIN6Liqx5pUD6g

the person in your life who treats you the worst is here to teach you the most ... understand this thoroughly when you see through this lens, you realize that the world you are in could not be one speck more perfect for your maximal unfoldment everything is designed with you in mind to extract the highest return in the least time in short, life is unimaginably perfect and existence has your back every step of the way

beautiful ... and what for you constitutes vanity

wow high quality answers y'all

all well and good but the flaw is it requires two people to tango and realize it ... if one is selfish and other is selfless the selfless one won't live a long life ... so it comes back to the point of being able to embrace death or not

every masochist loves a bit of torture, bring it on ... maybe you don't love it but then you are selfishly biased towards your preferences and survival ... your truth is not everyone's truth

agree with these sentiments maybe evil is simply resisting death ... jesus did not resist death however ... when the time came he sweated tears of blood but said your will be done ... so to be non evil perhaps we need to stare down death every day every moment ... god is indifferent to death, one dream is as perfect as another

soon good words here: https://www.reddit.com/r/nonduality/comments/uei7t4/using_intellectual_understanding_to_bypass/

fighting what is most do this from ignorance (that's called suffering) but if you do it from willfulness that's called evil so to suffer willingly is pretty darn evil i say worshiping the ever unfolding what is, by contrast, is love

consciousness is what you're conscious of and what you're not conscious of ... meditation is to make the latter the former

you have laws else it's might is right and all its consequences you then better design and implement your own laws to prevent your demise ... with might is right your life-span won't be long

birth certificate

i uphold a transwoman to be a woman and i also uphold a person's right to prefer non-transwomen as partners just like some can prefer brunette's over blonde's and all women are equal to other women in terms of rights but not in terms of attraction ... rights are objective, attraction is subjective

nothing is all that mind can't understand which come to think of it is quite something

am i age-ist if i don't want to have sex with people over 80? no right? likewise for your question ... my stated preferences are no one's business but my own and i am perfectly entitled to them so if you are a transwoman or a transman in my opinion you have an a priori duty to tell people who express potential interest in you how you identify i think all else is deception and manipulation

what a person of higher consciousness will say to you will appear incredible, or lies if you will what a person of lower consciousness will say to you will appear incredulous, or lies if you will truth is in fact your own level of consciousness namely the sharpness of your vision
