  1. ❤ Byron Katie - Jobless in this Superficial World ❤
  2. I'm writing this with the assumption you are talking about Byron Katie's The Work, because it seems like a quote that I've heard her say. Byron Katie's The Work doesn't work from a third person perspective. It is not a passive experience. It’s not a way to try to force yourself to feel peace, or love, when you don’t. You've got to the work(inquiry) with kindness. If you do it right, you will feel more empowered, and more able to see solutions and actions to your problems. Let say you are being abuse, The solution isn't to say I'm not being abuse, I understand why the other person is abusing me, I'll let the other person abuse me. It's not about denial or or pretending it didn’t happen Rather Question your unfriendly thoughts. I have no escape from this terrible situation I'm in... is it true? Once you're open, you can think more clearly, more creatively. I didn’t speak up, I didn’t go to him directly, I smiled when in his presence and play-acted like everything was fine. I didn’t share my fears. I didn’t get support for myself. I stuffed things down. I gave the wrong impression. I didn’t look to myself with care, love and attention. The best way to address the feeling of smallness, powerlessness, and being a victim of something or someone (including you) is to access your honest yes or no within, and practice saying it out loud. So, no one can abuse me? Well, that is only a question that I (or you) can genuinely answer. Some of the sentences I copied from https://workingwithgrace.com/ LOL? That is a great epistemic question.
  3. To anyone seeking greater mental wellbeing, these podcasts are the best. At Home With Byron Katie They are currently 36 episodes. This is mainly taken from her live events at https://thework.com/at-home-with-byron-katie/ , if anyone's interested. What can I say, I love Byron Katie. Listening to her makes the nails in my heart float away to... hmm... I don't know, somewhere ?, now it's no longer lodged in my heart. ? Even if you are a seemingly self-aware person, however, her exercises can be super helpful at coaching you to move through uncomfortable periods of life, whether those are periods of obsession or spiraling thoughts that tend to grip and overwhelm us (This sentence is taken from https://graceandlightness.com/byron-katie-the-work/ )
  4. Sorry for your loss, Sine RIP WaveInTheOcean

  7. Thanks! Very useful. I don't know if this fits here. Game recommendations ? https://www.actualized.org/insights/disco-elysium https://www.actualized.org/insights/stage-green-turquoise-video-game
  8. All of Byron Katie's work. Preferably in audible form. Listening is better than reading to feel the author's presence.
  9. Dear Leo, You are the torch that is guiding humanity to a new dawn. Your inspiration is unparalleled. Thank you Leo. Wishing you health and prosperity. Happy Birthday!!!
  10. agree with hyruga what's your goals? I've lost 10kg with 48hours of intermittent fasting. I don't think it improves productivity. You just form new mental habits. And it helps you structure your day better.
  11. Timestamp 3:20, I thought this is a beautiful passage. How a piece of music can become reified in our minds Let me propose a thought experiment Imagine for a moment you're a god Omnipotent in every way, With this power, if you were to listen to a piece of music You'd be aware of much more than just how it sounds you'd know how it came into existence aware of every iteration that existed in the composer's mind as it was created you'd also be aware of every cultural, social and biological influence that contributed to its creation both deliberate and unconscious apart from how it was created, you'd also know everything about its influences. you'd be coignizant of every different interpretation of that music that existed in the mind of every listener from every point in time and you'd be aware of how this understanding is always changing. you'd be able to trace every phrase, every musical idea back through the centuries back to its musical origin, comprehending how they slowly transformed from person to person in order to end up where they are now what others think of as a 'single work' you'd perceive as a live connection to the endlessly shifting and impossibly complex conversation of musical thought and influence.
  12. How music influences our interpretation of the shows we watch. You Donkey! ?
  13. LOL! ? --- So this is what it feel's like to be a fanboy/girl! Damn!! ? Is this why people camp outside the shops when there is a product launch?
  14. Yes. I guess obsidian is more better for security because it stores data in your local storage. I just feel better with roam because it's simpler to use out of the box. I got sucked in into the roam way of thinking before obsidian. Love the community they are building with roam and the direction they are heading. I don't know how both tools will play out in the long run but for now I'm sticking to using roam.
  15. @Leo Guraroamresearch has helped me tremendously with my journaling, notetaking and learning. It introduces this idea of backlinking and daily notes. It has help me with your life purpose course because I could see how my thoughts and values evolve over time. Daily notes is such a simple idea but seeing my thoughts evolve over time is so profound. Even though you haven't wrote your book yet, the schism has begun. ?
  16. Hi, @Leo Gura, Have you heard of roamresearch.com? I believe it's going to be the future of video and book learning including collaborative community building. They have a very active twitter page. https://twitter.com/roamresearch?lang=en This is also quite interesting https://twitter.com/RoamBookClub Check it out, I think it would be perfect for your book, but instead of a static passive book, it would be like a thriving, living, breathing body of work with feedback from you and your audience.
  17. Thanks for the book review, Sagar.
  18. Dude!!!! You know what all your great trips didn't teach you. The great hidden arcane knowlege of "paragraphs".
