Oppositionless

Imagine a finite physical universe . It has nothing outside of it. Not empty space, but metaphysical nothingness. How could such a universe exist? Have you ever encountered a physical object with nothing outside of it? For something to be physical it must take up space, and must have other objects outside of it. an infinite physical universe seems like it could resolve the paradox, but it doesn't, physical objects can't be infinite. Because infinity can't be counted, can't be made physical . therefore physical reality is not really physical but an idea of consciousness.

Do you think God can be proved through logic? Or just awakening? I had an existential crisis watching an atheist YouTuber recently, I tried to mentally go through my logical reasons for believing in God again and they all seemed to fall flat, and I think the problem is my arguments aren't supported by a direct consciousness.

Thank you.

You're not wrong. Ive spent too much energy telling myself I'm helpless, a passenger. Time to take ownership realizing I have infinite will.

What I willed is endless suffering and making the same mistakes constantly I guess. but I think I understand somewhat. I dunno, I just really want to be better. But maybe I don't want it as much as I want to stay the same. Because the suffering is its own kind of comfort . I don't know how to have a desirable social life without fucking myself with addictions and hangovers

How can I be different? My argument for free will Cause and effect is a material process You are not a material process, you are outside of cause and effect But you are also not the doer So in a paradoxical sense, free will exists but there isn't a "you" to have free will

Pain.

Why did you allow me to love so deeply only to have it all taken from me?

I wonder if it's possible to use telekinesis to seduce women

I actually love the entry for actualised . Org, it's clear cut and to the point . What I've learned is that I'm subject to fate . But I can also STOP whenever I want. That's a very new development thanks to ralston

God is absolute stillness, he doesn't need to worry about minor details. That's one aspect of God, you're God, and you're conscious of yourself.

I know I'm going against the grain of the forum when I say this, but I don't think anyone knows. Yeah some people have done breakthrough doses of psychedelics , and some people have flatlined and come back, but just look at all those experiences... they're all different. So all I can say is that your after life will probably be a reflection of your current life.

Even better if you're wearing really nice clothes, just say you deal coke and live in a van.

I think the point is that other minds only difference in content, and content is ultimately unreal, so in the absolute sense you can't differentiate them

I haven't given a shit about spirituality lately as I've been focusing all my energy on pickup but this thread ignited something in me and I feel that I'm at a point where it's time to forget about game and focus on the mysteries of existence , all that ego shit can sort itself out .

Dean Radin seems to believe telepathy phenomena can be explained by quantumn nonlocality. I found that out when I listened to Entangled Minds on Spotify. Maybe I'm overthinking and perfectionist when it comes to epistemology, because honestly QM itself calls materialism into question lol.

It's not just that I stop talking, it's that my mind becomes so attuned that it's damn near impossible for me to talk. it's not as specific as the true nonverbal people in the podcast I mentioned. It's more like, I will randomly read the vibe of the room and I might be able to intuit what someone is about to say. An example is that I randomly started thinking about pirates while high on a car ride and my friend started talking about pirates

Do you think psychic phenomena really deconstruct the materialist paradigm? That to me is the more important question. I used to think they definitely did, but the more we learn about quantumn mechanics the more I think materialists may be able to finagle a physicalist explanation for them. So I now believe the only way to truly deconstruct it is to awaken.

When I smoke weed I become nonverbal (I'm on the spectrum I think, and weed pushes me over the edge so to speak), it's the reason I want to quit. But regardless of that, I have noticed that I become telepathic (in my experience, idk if it's real). But something that confirmed to me it might be real is listening to the podcast The Telepathy Tapes which is about 24/7 nonspeakers and their telepathic abilities. It's a pretty good podcast, kinda new age for my taste but definitely interesting.

Social intelligence is how you get money , very many important lessons. Good friends can point out blind spots in you. A lot of this pretty elementary and not developed , and important

1 1/2 days sober Hypnosis and affirmation tracks for inner game.

I have no idea how to stop doing substances . My vape is making me gag when I hit it and weed is being weed and making life absolutely mental. I'm not attempting to quit kratom yet.

The total metro is 10x that so there is definitely some decent night life but maybe I'm just too pussy. I suck at approaching, maybe what I'm looking for is an environment I feel more comfortable approaching in. The Deep South doesn't feel very inviting.
