FIFA 08. Golden days...

That sounds weird

You're asking a materialistic question and trying to answer it from the idealistic paradigm. It won't work.

That would be aligning your will with the book author's will. You're looking in the wrong place, still trying to align your will with the will of the mortals.

Well, I know for a fact that some people, e.g. Ramsay Bolton, prefer sticks over slices.

Wrong. Depends on what you're using it for.

Longitudinal cut, or across?

" Lol, you really turned it around, smooth talked ? "

@Salvijus Relax your preaching ass just for a little bit. The guy likes loyal and submissive girls, he has every right to like what he likes and you have no right to judge him or try to convert him. I've been holding this information from you for almost a week but your last dozen of posts have been crappy. You seem drunk and unaware of what you're saying. What kind of meditation are you practicing?

Introverts are often self-conscious, which is not the case for most extroverts. Being self-conscious is like being your own enemy. Extroverts don't have that enemy, so they tend to be more free. But most extroverts have very low consciousness. They don't know what they're doing or why they're doing it. The truth is that introverts are often one level higher than extroverts, consciousness wise, simply because self-consciousness is a feature that extroverts lack and have no access to, nor do they care about it or want to develop that capacity, so they're stuck in their comfort zone. If an introvert somehow manages to get over self-consciousness, it'll be like when the pawn advances to the end of the chess board. The line between introvert and extrovert will blur. They will become a Queen and have the best of both worlds. The same thing will happen if an extrovert develops their consciousness. But that's rare in introverts, and a lot rarer in extroverts.

From automatic to auto-magic. Enlightenment!

I've kind of given up on personality traits, since most people are shit and unstable, anyway. It's only a matter of time until a person shows their true colors. This applies to friends, too. Right now, just looking for sexy, because it's stable and guaranteed at least.

You're Green, so you're fine. But I'm not sure about your dog unless it's Yellow. Or Turquoise, maybe.

Easily by socializing with other people. You are a mirror, and everyone else is also a mirror. You can only recognize your self through the reflection you see in others. Avoid solitude for the next few weeks. Interact with real people as much as you can, and you will get over this state sooner than you expect. No one ever is beyond help. Most of the times, yes.

This has nothing to do with having an "ultimate cause" to live life. For example, I eat because I feel hungry, I know what I do and why I do it, that's conscious eating. I don't eat because I think that I have to use food as a fuel to achieve a certain vision, that would be neurosis. Now, I can, and I do have a vision and a greater purpose, but I am detached from it, such that I don't care if it gets fulfilled or not in the end. As long as I'm surviving, nothing else matters.

Can you explain how that is a contradiction? Please don't tell me that you think that the only way to be conscious is to have a cause to live (or die for).

How?

What is it exactly that sounds contradicting?

To say that there is an illusion implies that there is a truth behind the illusion. And to say that there is a truth implies that there is an illusion happening elsewhere aside from the truth. But who is saying? Just sayin'.

@Someone here Conscious survival because I'm aware of myself and surroundings most of the time. Wherever I go, and whatever I do, there's always a feeling of presence. I don't live life like a zombie. I am not blind or unconscious like most people, although I used to be so. There's very little automatism about my life. That's high consciousness. It's very distinct from blind/unconscious living.

A Whole New World. The best version! Good old days... Got this image from a CSS practice template.

I really don't. And to be clear, I am not continuing life, per se. That would require a will and an effort, which is ego. Life is happening and unfolding, and I'm simply not standing in the way. I'm going with the flow of things. It's that simple. It's a shorter version of what I said right above.
