@Karmadhi It literally does lmao. Now most muslims cherry pick from their religion, so for they practice it more or less peacefully. But if you really study it, there are wild things said in Islam, in the Quran and the Hadiths.

https://www.instagram.com/reel/Dfj_PYUTjkL/?rpxt=MW83MWRscWE0enRjZA== Sadhguru here is basically arguing in favor of vegeterianism. He makes statement but doesn't give explanations. He says: "that if you eat the flesh of an animal, you'll slowly become an animal." Okay but why? He then says that your body started with two cells of memory, he basically calls DNA memory, which is fine. I get that. But then he makes the argument that if you eat of more complex memory, your ability to superimpose you own memory is less and less. Okay sounds logical, but still i'm not convinced for some reason. It is far away from my paradigm of how i see things. I should probably study sadhguru more to get into his paradigm and understand.

@Natasha Tori Maru Green flags: -She's hot, fit and takes care of her appearance. -Same ethnic background or ethnic mind. Like for example, i am very western minded, and my country of heart is italy. If she's italian and has an italian mind, she would be perfect for me. However if she's algerian and is islamically minded, then we won't fit together. Culture is a huge factor for me.

@Leo Gura Finally. I thought i was crazy for finding the free videos about business quite crappy.

@Leo Gura Okay so we agree on this i think. Culture is important, and non-trivial. It's like saying your house is a construction. Yeah it is an invention, it's made up. But still not all houses are created equal. And plus good luck living without one, and one of decent quality, and one that you enjoy and love.

@Leo Gura Where the rubber meets the road is if i challenge you to go live in a place like afghanistan, since being american is a hallucination that you can take off easily, why don't you go live in Afghanistan or another similar country. Culture is a construct of the mind, however some cultures are still superior and better than others, because not all constructs are of equal quality.

@Leo Gura Then the other day you told me being italian is a hallucination. Yet you admit that culture has a collective mind/psyche here. How isn't this a contradiction ?

@Leo Gura Brand said he slept with thousands of women. Given that premise 6 rapes are not much. I think he got so much success with women, that the line between consent and non consent has become blurry IMO.

@erikchomko Sadhguru is one of the wisest figures online. To call him a fraud, is an inversion of what's really going on.

Health issues as a spiritual practice. It means deepening your relationship to reality thanks to the suffering you experience due to your health issues. The more suffering you go through, you more reality you confront, you more aware you become of the suffering of reality as a whole including all living beings. The more compassionate you become. This leads to a deep fulfillment and love to mankind, for all its stupid behavior is due somehow to avoiding suffering. Not just mankind, but all living beings really. The suffering will lead and contribute to mystical experiences.

Life is a process of maturation. All suffering has a point which is maturity. All toxicity and evil happen because of immaturity and lack of maturity. The cost of maturity is often time massive suffering. I know first hand from having experienced hell on earth due to mental disorders caused by a deficiency in b12 due to my left wing radicalization into veganism ideologically. Which is too radical of an ideology to be frank and truth-telling. Now the upside to all of that is God levels of maturity that i gained. Also from having had pick up failures, getting rejected thousands of times, and also having plenty of success too, this all gives experience and wisdom, which leads to maturity. You have to experience both sides of a coin, to know it fully. Well that's life for you: a process of maturation: the good and the bad, the beautiful and the ugly, the truthful and the false, are all part of the same coin, which to know it deeply requires experiecing both sides.

@Leo Gura Leo could you explain why rape is wrong ? I don't know i mean women love sex, and sometimes things are ambiguous, like she might not give you clear consent, but from her vibe you can tell she wants more. How do you know even if it is considered rape in that case ? Plus part of being a fuckboy is to believe that you're attractive to all women basically, given that premise, you can in rare cases force yourself on a woman, when you had the assumption that she's attracted to you. Plus women are emotional creatures they can tell you no, and not mean it, same way they can tell you yes, but not be super attracted to you, just because you've been together for some time, and you're used to doing stuff together so it becomes automatic. Like the question of rape is much more complex than it seems. It isn't obvious at all.

I live in Lebanon, in the capital, Beirut. I work near my home. Through my job, I have learned about the situation in my region—specifically the poverty faced by Syrian immigrants living in Lebanon. I have also come to realize how fortunate and privileged I am. Furthermore, the cultural differences between the Lebanese and the Syrians are quite significant. Before I started working, I held what might be called progressive ideals—for instance, the belief that we are all one human species. However, based on my personal experience, my perspective on this matter has shifted. I believe that people generally feel more at ease with those who are similar to them—within their own tribe, family, nation, or ethnic group. This is because love is difficult; it takes real effort to love a nation other than one’s own. While it is not impossible to become a member of a different society, it is rare, as it requires a genuine love for that new nation.

@Nemra Part of mastery of mind is to realize that you can jump between identities effortlessly. I agree that you shouldn't let your ethnic identity limit your development, or worldview. But you can appreciate the beauty of different ethnicities as well as ethnic identities. This is what studying history is about. The story/history of an ethnic identity, or an ethnicity.

@Jodistrict Yes!
