  3. That doesn't guarantee better survival. Your spouse can get terminally sick or get disabled. Your spouse can divorce you. Your spouse can spend all your money. Your spouse can plot to harm you. Your spouse can lose their income. Your spouse can become depressed, defeated, lazy. Your spouse could become abusive so it's hard to bear them mentally. Children make survival harder btw and all of those attributes applicable to spouse are applicable to your children. However you do get it easier I guess when people share responsibilities, but it also gets quite limiting. You can good at survival, get bored or depressed because that's merely not enough for you and you can divorce them or become restless and lose everything in life. I think it's the wrong reason to get together.
  4. The Daliban has raided your blog @Leo Gura
  5. He is pretty intellectually open and honest, so I think it can go very well.
  6. I just say a few things. Sorry if I offended you. That is my opinion on Ralph Smart. And that I am very grateful to have and listen to a shiva as a human being in my life, even trough the internet. Yes, Ralph Smart also helped me on the way, but people I shall not name right now, including Sadhguru have brought value and tools to my life I couldn't have dreamed of. To my very dear people in my life I would recommend them, however, I can't discuss this with people. I will be labeled as I am in some cult or I am crazy or I am religious fanatic. Also I don't want to associate with the people who follow these people blindly. While whatever works, their actions is what repel me and they can start to push me to follow with them. But these people. Have provided me so much of depth in my life. I can't believe still I have this gift in my life. No matter what happens. And I was seeking it. I was listening to whomever I can find, I was seeking pretty intense at some points of my life. I was trying to reach it. I almost went to India. But I found what I needed to find. Now I just have to live well and take care of my body and keep practicing the teachings these people continuously provide. Knowing what a Guru can bring, Ralph just doesn't have it. I can feel it lacking in him nor his actions or words show it. Gurus make you feel blissfull for no reason. Even without saying anything. Just look at a picture of Ramana Maharishi for 5 minutes. It is there. It will always be. Now, our society is what it is. The courageous will look silly for the truth. The mediocre will act silly to hide from the truth. The truth is not just what the guru says, but the truth is that which is true on it's own. Whatever it is, either you are aligned with it or not determines whether another lifetime has been wasted or some conscious evolution has really happened. The difference is night and day and you can't miss it.
  7. While I feel more free from the forces of life than ever in my life I don't consider it freedom. I have something in my life that makes me feel great degree of freedom which increases over time. Am I free? Not really. It is more practical to say that this body separates me from freedom. That though does not mean that the body or the mind is the problem. We live in such a way, it takes a lot of effort to feel truly free. It's a full time job to make yourself that way. Even though, still somewhere, sometime glimpses of freedom happen and seem to be in a hands reach. Sometimes with a lot of effort you can't reach it. I don't know. Time will tell.
  8. Then the one with Sadhguru would be the more genuine one to have. Ralph will not give anything specific and call this a good convo.
  9. Destiny is a good choice in terms of possobility a discussion to happen and content. He's good in politics, self-development, life advice and while he is an atheist, he does psychedelics.
  10. Also interviewing Sadhguru is very unlikely and will be hard for you. He has his agenda and you have yours. I don't think it would work. You might be an interesting human being for him, but he has his own talking points and he can just sweep away your perspective and view of spirituality, especially when it comes to psychedelics, especially in public. But then, Gurus have a degree of unpredictability to them, so maybe it's worth it. He sat with Logan Paul, so why not anyone.
  11. Please don't do Ralph Smart the infinite waters guy and Sri Master Arkshana. The infinite waters guy lacks depth, his content hasn't changed and is terrible for doing this full time + he offers coaching which I assume is equally bad. Ralph's content was good like 8 years ago, when he talked about nutrition. The other guy is pure con.
  12. Bro, don't go to Mindvalley, it's certified garbage.
  13. That would be cool
  14. I personally don't find reading books attractive like at all and I am fine. You can get away with video or audio content as well. You can also get away with very limited information, good and simple method you are practicing regularly, so it's entirely up to you wether you read any book at all. When you might need theory from any kind of medium is when you hit a hard plateau or can't identify what problem you have or when you are searching for a solution for a very specific problem. Soon most of you will just ask your questions of any kind to an AI chat bot and it will distill all the knowledge you need, so you might not need to read books. But, you will still need to practice things that make you grounded. Reading gives you that experience by entertaining some idea for long enough you become attracted to it.
  15. The Leo thing I agree, but I wouldn't throw Destiny under the bus. Sure he may have his flaws, but he is one of the most reasonable in that genre of content unlike some other pseudo-socialist virtue signaling, "on the ground reporting" and other click farms who are not even informed on the topics they talk about.
  16. My only cardio is Isha Upa Yoga 20 mins a day and playing guitar and some Intermittent and prolonged fasting if that counts.
  17. You should create a neo-advita version of Jesus Christ AI chatbot dude.
  18. i think he would be like: "Mehh. This again." I think he would behave 95 % like this guy if hw came back now.
  19. Destiny later told that he didn't pressure JP as much as he should and JP was butthurt about the debate. You have the potential to be scary.
  20. I think your acid reflux contributes to your dental problems. But acid reflux by itself will give you a lot of problems down the line, trust me bro. You don't want chronic gastritis and stuff.
  21. How can you settle such an important topic? It has to be discussed every two weeks on here.
  22. Neem, honey, turmeric ar the ones that I keep buying and consuming.
  23. While this thread has turned into a burning pile of dong and that's exactly what I tought, you are such a fucking good sport, I will give you that.
