No but science is our best attempt at knowing the truth. People believe in all kind of bullshit which makes their lives better. Even if something makes your life better it doesn't mean that it's true. Even the belief that earth is flat has made lives better. Because you find a community which you like to be in, you get friends, you get a hobby, etc. Even before I read experts criticize MBTI and other tests I instinctively "knew" that they are bullshit. I never liked those things. I can see the psychological reason why people love that kind of horse shit. Spiral dynamics is another example.

I'm not a INTP. I have done the test before, I don't remember what I got, but I remember it wasn't INTP. According to experts those personality tests are worthless. And they don't have any support in science.

@artcastle I don't love anyone. I have the book and I have read it.

What annoys me is that it's west which makes China great, by buying stuff from China. West is digging its own grave by throwing their money to China, it's mind-boggling. Stop buying chinese products and services, ffs.

@Cepzeu I think this is horse shit. What is your response?

Should be easy.. Just videorecord it or something.

@Danioover9000 Why don't you prove to others that Crysty exists?

11 different answers and still no one has gave the obvious correct answer... The answer is easily written in one sentence: Because most people don't believe in enlightenment. I don't really believe in it either.

Interesting, I think that's true, you would just respawn.

I have kind of "heard" that "voice" too. Sometimes it was violent. Once it forced me to yell out loud: "God is good."

As a rule of thumb, the more you bullshit, the more succesful you become. Because life and the world is bullshit, so people love bullshit, so bullshit as much as you possibly can if you want to be really succesful. (Maybe a bit exaggerated..)

They will tell you to take psychedelics, preferably 5-MeO-DMT. Maybe that's what you should do, I don't know.

Solipsism. It's a "place" where you don't want to be..

No, because he directed it directly at the little human.

How is that supposed to help me?

@Superfluo I answer here instead of in that thread. If you didn't see I edited my post a bit, so it says: "Therapy, anti depressants and other medicine, etc." There is no solution to my problems. I have nothing to live for, it's not possible for anyone to love me, there is no hope for me. I'm dead already, I only live because I'm hardwired for survival which seems to be impossible for me to override + I don't want to ruin my parents lives. I suffer pretty much all the time every day and it will be like that for the rest of my life, which I hope will be as short as possible. And all this suffering is for nothing, it's meaningless. (I'm talking about the "what is the meaning of life/everything?" question.) I don't believe in any woo-woo wishful thinking fantasies which people talk about in this forum. I only believe in stuff which has been proved scientifically. But a exception is that I believe in Consciousness after death, but that doesn't necessarily mean that I will keep my memories from this life, I think that's unlikely. I "believe" in the Universal, attributeless, formless, impersonal Consciousness which is present in all living beings, and I think it's immortal and limitless. I wrote "believe" in quotation marks because that word isn't really right for it, because Consciousness is the unbiased witness of also beliefs. So it doesn't matter whether you believe in it or not. It is what breathes life and existence into everything. No advice can help me, no advice has ever helped me, so don't give any advice in the hope of helping me. Just so you don't waste your time. But for your and our pastime/entertainment, you can of course write anything you want. And no, currently I don't want to take psychedelics. I have tried it once or maybe twice, and the hell experience traumatized me and I suspect it gave me some chronic mental disorder. So I would be stupid as fuck to fuck myself up even more with psychedelics.

You didn't solve the problem/question, you just stopped thinking about it.. You just swept it under the rug. But I'm not saying that's wrong to do. No. Because I value the truth over feeling good. At least up to some limit.. "Nothing in your mind or sensemaking is real anyway." That's a dangerous assumption. No, they aren't 100% right. You guys are shitting on the truth with your lazy, unserious, armchair, crazy, mental masturbation ideas. You're just playing around. But I don't want to argue..

I think the whole point with enlightenment is that you supposedly transcend from the world. So it wouldn't be any problem for you even if your body gets tortured in prison. Since you are not the body. But I don't know if I believe that enlightenment exists. That no one can even agree on what enlightenment is, also indicates that maybe enlightenment is just another fairytale story made up by wishful thinking humans.

But life in this world requires that at least some people work, no matter what. Physical existence in this world is impossible without work.. For physical existence you need shelter, food and clothes. And healthcare would also be a good thing. All those things require work. And also you must impress on the women (compete against men), that maybe requires most work of all. Otherwise the specie would die. And it would be weird if the unenlightened people must work as slaves for the enlightened people (otherwise the latter would die) because the enlightened people refuse to work.

So enlightenment and 9 to 5 work doesn't work together or what? Why not? Supposedly enlightenment/liberation sets you free no matter what circumstances your body is in (or if it dies). So that means you would be free even while working 9 to 5.

You would never work a single day without salary, but you are supposed to work and suffer a entire freaking life without any salary whatsoever. And you don't even know how you got here. Reality and life is so absurd that I almost get a stroke when I think about it.

I feel like shit. I think it's really frustrating and weird that this life and all included suffering seems to be completely unnecessary. Meaning, there is probably no reward after you finish this life. So there is no meaning to any of this. Why do we live? I don't get it. It's all for nothing. It's like you would struggle and struggle with a task, but you don't know why you do it and there's nothing to gain from it, no salary, no reward, nothing. I really hate this shit. Fuck everything. Really just screw everything. I don't want any of this, I really really don't. (This is how I'm currently feeling.) And don't say that I create the meaning. Or that I create all this. Or that I create anything at all. Just don't, because it's not true. Clearly clearly not. But I guess I don't know this either. But it feels super super unlikely that I'm the creator.

If greater consciousness is good, then animals are living in hell? Since their consciousness is much lower than for humans. If they are not living in hell: why not?
