Just this simple question. I am conflicted to what Leo means by the existence of only one god. Does it mean that my own perspective is one among many others created by god or does it mean that my perspective is the only one existing and the others are just toys to interact with. Please don't just reply with "do the work and see it yourself" comments. I already know that. I just want to know what your perspective is about this issue.

I watched a video of Leo called "What if Reality is Nothing but Perspective?", and from what he said about understanding all perspectives in the process of accumulating love, it seems like one should not wish death for the relative worst of human beings, including murderers. So I want to ask, isn't it unfair for a murderer to continue living in this life and enjoying it some way or another after he took it away from someone else? Someone who was having as rich of a life as me, you and everyone else? Keep in mind that I am not talking about the financial or murder rate side of the capital punishment. I am only talking about this "moral" side.

@billiesimon I am glad that you're doing better now. Really happy for you ?. I think I might consider this issue more deeply. I will try to understand what murders driven by jealousy and mere joy of killing are caused by. It's going to be hard to accept all and give everyone a second chance, but if it's for the good of the society then it's okay I guess.

@lmfao I understand that everyone has the right to live, and that murderers are just like anyone of us. My bothered mind can excuse murderers who've been subjected to trauma/abuse by an individual, and I completely don't mind killing for self defense, if proved in courts. My problems is with sadistic killers, those who just enjoy torturing people, and also with murderers driven by jealousy, hatred and other similar drives. Isn't it unfair for them to continue living their lives after they took what they're enjoying away from others? What I am saying is that sadistic killers should be executed and murderers driven by jealousy or hatred should be killed too if they show no signs of remorse and regret. I mean, they have achieved what they wanted. Right? They have gotten rid of the person they hated and now they get to live albeit only after a small period in prison. It makes no sense for me to see them enjoying their lives after they have hurt others on their way. And yes, my question is not metaphysical at this point. Bear in mind too that I am open to everyone's point of view. I just want to understand why I am ought to forgive these murderers because most of the people I have encountered seem to be against killing murderers. So my quest is to understand why and not to challenge your opinions. I am not saying that they are not nice or that they don't have a rich life. I am just saying that what they have committed by ending a rich life of someone else, sadistically or for a silly reason, deserves a proper punishment. Even if it's not killing them, I think they deserve to have most of their rights taken away. They don't deserve to enjoy something they've taken away from others. I am aware of this, too. But I don't think this is something that might avert me from my stance. Because, in the end, if I am going to forgive murderers from the fear of getting killed myself for committing a murder then it's going to be a lacking perspective filled with fear. Again, if you think my stance is regressive and lacking in compassion/sympathy then I would love to change it. But I want to see your perspectives first to know better.

Isn't it faulty to say that the realizations some people get due to psychedelics are also part of the mind game? I mean, after all, they are just altering the normal physiology of the brain. I would love to know the reasons why people would consider them a valuable resource for spiritual work.
