That doesn't mean that what they experienced was real actual things.

When the scientists say how many galaxies there are and how big the universe is.. They are only talking about the observable universe. The actual universe is even bigger, probably infinite. Of course we are not alone. This picture (Hubble Legacy Field) shows a tiny patch of the sky. Everything you see in this picture is a galaxy: Higher resolution version, up to 25500x25500 1.19 GB available here: https://hubblesite.org/image/4492/news Btw, the James Webb Space Telescope (successor to Hubble Space Telescope) which will get launched on 31 october will see even further, it will deliver even nicer pictures and reveal new stuff about the universe.

Just so you understand that each galaxy is huge: our Milky Way galaxy for example contains 100-400 billion stars. This is the greatest picture which mankind has taken so far. Every little dot (except maybe a few stars) is a galaxy. And it only shows a tiny tiny part of the sky. You can download the picture in up to 25500x25500 resolution here: https://hubblesite.org/image/4492/news

The first step to starting to believe in conspiracy theories and shit is to reject everything mainstream and only consume information from alternative sources. Once you fall into that hole.. I don't know if you can get out. So watch out.

There's overwhelming scientific evidence that the tap water where I live is safe. So I happily drink lots of tap water. I'm going to drink some extra now. Hooray for science and evidence instead of beliefs, fear and superstition.

That one doesn't trick me. I can clearly hear when it starts over. It's just a normal repeating loop. People are so easily fooled.

Yaay it's not some romantic/sexual shit, woohoo, thanks.

Well I hope it's not some freaking romantic/sexual bullshit

I hope that's just a analogy. It's not even a good analogy imo. Consciousness is that which is conscious of "pure light".

Yes when you die you get born, obviously. But I'm not sure about the rest of your post.

Yes consciousness is attributeless, obviously. A.k.a. nothingness. (But not literal nothing.)

Wishful thinking. You're not thinking clearly in this matter. You're emotionally dogmatic and irrational with that position. I mean come on. "Suicide is always a dumb decision. Never be suicidal." That's like those fanatic anti-abortion people who go crazy only because their fucking emotions go bananas.

Nice. Me too. High five. People often don't understand how pathetic some people can be.

Life is a curse.

It depends. If you for example have parents who love you, you will completely destroy their lives for the rest of their lives.

@BornToBoil 2 things can potentially be wrong with suicide: That you hurt people who know you. And the possibility that life can get better, but that doesn't apply to everyone. Some souls are obnoxious and aren't loved by anyone. In my opinion people got it backwards. When a birth happens there should be mourning and when death happens there should be joy.

I have tried therapy a bit and stuff. Maybe life isn't a struggle for some people, but it is for me. I can't see how I could make my life into a miracle.

Nothing is worse than being completely alone and unlikable. My loneliness is driving me crazy.

Seems like that is what Leo is saying. Personally I think others are experiencing too. If they wouldn't, then you could torture other beings and they wouldn't feel anything. No one would do that, except people who completely lack empathy. No way.

@Leo Gura So are other beings conscious?

It's true that everything is happening in my consciousness. But I can't see how that's evidence that what you said is true. There could be others, etc. It's just impossible to know for sure. Leo saying that psychedelics is required is also just imagination (I'm offering "people" a alternative to psychedelics.) How is God Love? I can't see it. The only way I can conceive of Love is the creation of duality. Because for me, being in the total solipsism hole is hell, so duality is paradise compared to it. But I see the creation of duality as a necessity, so calling it Love is a bit too nice, imo. But okay, I guess you could be right. I'm currently not in a great state of mind.. so my entire post could be bs.

I hate life so so so much. Now would be a good time to kill myself... but I'm not going to do it. God really created the ultimate prison. I don't know what his problem is, but he created one heck of a prison, good job. Apparently his favorite hobby is to torture souls. (I don't really believe in a theistic/classical conception of God.)

No I don't.

I don't know. Which proves my point.

Can everyone just stop thinking that they know. No one knows.
