  1. Again, it is just a symbol. I Rather mean saving money enough for 20 years of reckless living, and then just seeing what happens and living happily as homeless for example. Or maybe rich because when I will have nothing to loose you follow inspirations and great ideas. The point is to just let go. Mind tries to talk me out of it, that I will have 20 year gap in cv and so on. So best way to shut it up is to just accept the worst case scenario and realize that this scenario is still awesome.
  2. To retire early just means having a freedom of a child for me. Kids can be really productive when they are not forced to anything and feel inspired to do something and their passions are not spoiled with "that is not well paying career/that is not responsible" stuff.
  3. Dying at fifty is just a symbol/sentence/funny game for my mind to let go worrying about the future. I think I will live well past 70 really but spontaneously and without clinging to safety or finances. I think thats when life begins because then you have time and finances. And I want to try to create such situation much earlier at the expense of my financial safety after 50. I am fulfilled already. God knows (me ) how fullfilled will I be had I lived 20 years without worrying about financial safety and holding the image of my death in my mind.
  4. "So what if we are all doomed?" We have so much attachment to certain outcomes and to concept of life that it is counterproductive and lowers our vibration. We are not that important. We are just tiny portion of creation. Remember the size of the sun. Let go, and just be happy. Your optimism will change the world for the better. I reccommend this material on this topic:
  5. Isn't it perfect and beautiful that through such experience God gives you an opportunity to choose compassion and not work there, to stop eating meat, to talk to people about it and inspire them to change?
  6. Well, basically all my dreams were fullfilled other than "not having to worry about money and be free to not do anything" so thats what I want to create for myself in this dream. So I would still be fulfilled at the moment of my death. I just want to figure out the logistics for this body to have careless stage in life. Well I would be willing to accept that risk.
  7. I highly recommend this radical talk about the misconceptions of relationships: https://youtu.be/L612S0MnHnw
  8. Just a little post. I wanted to share my "method". When I want to enter meditative state but there is still a lot of noise in my head I strongly say to myself and imagine that I as a Ghost in this very second just entered this body and have acces to all its senses, memories, mind, style of thinking etc. It instantly distances me from it. It makes me curious oh, what is this belief that this body has, oh what is this bias. I am not this body, I am not this ego, I am not these memories. It also generates this feeling of looking at the world for the first time as if the feeling of something being normal is also not mine as Ghost, but this body's. Yeah thats all I wanted to share <3.
  9. @Preety_India Can you imagine a version of yourself in some pararel reality that does not care whatsoever what other people say about you? Can you just imagine that and feel how would it be? What stops you from becoming that version every day a little bit more? Please consider watching that video:
  10. I really like falling asleep knowing I will disappear for a while. It is one of my goals for future to learn to keep my awareness awake while in deep sleep to feel that better.
  11. @Preety_India so Yarco does not like you. It is a fact. No matter wheter he writes what he writes, or he gets banned, or you get banned it is still a fact of your reality that he does not like you. Even if he stops writing what he writes, it is still a fact. You can not change that fact. So what now? Can you ignore/accept it? Why does it even matter to you? Who cares what Yarco is saying about you? Can you let it go? If no why not?
  12. Whenever you don't like what is happening to you you have two options: 1. Change the situation ( for example leave the forum) 2. Accept the situation and feel good about it/ignore it.
  13. Deep down yes. But she does not have as strong Self-Love and confidence as me so for example I know if I would do some crazy stuff it would feel dangerous for her and it would hurt her so I do not. Also she has no desire to do such stuff herself. She once did sleep with other guy out of curiosity how would she feel and if I trully wouldn't mind. It was really fun talking about it and it made us stronger and love each other even more. She does not look to do that again. So there is slight asymetry but I want to give her that safety of growth. She will reach the "unconditional" level some day I believe. At the end of the day it's lack of unconditional Self-love that stops us from loving others unconditionally. For example the belief that it means something bad about you if your partner does something other than you would like him to do.
  14. Its funny to see when scientifically minded people have glimpse of spirituality and they have problem articulating it as "noone is talking about it" as he said. And that he is saying that he does not suffer and his scientifically minded audience pities him and advices him to seek professional help haha. Thats cute.
  15. I love my fiance unconditionally. She can do whatever she wants and it won't hurt me. She can move out. She can sleep with other man. It does not touch me because she is Me. It's like my other body. How could I be mad for second part of my body for doing what it feels like doing. Posession is main sickness in relationships. Your partner does not owe you ANYTHING. No games. No strategies to get what you want from them. This radicall video helped me change perspective some years ago: https://youtu.be/TEkEq8YVAnA
  16. You are biased. I also watch him for 7 years and I would write everything opposite to what you wrote. He seem much more happy, healthy and inteligent from my pov. (I am biased too ofc)
  17. It helps you do stuff that you find uninteresting. And most people do something that does not interest them for a living.
  18. That's what everyone is saying here:
  19. Great! I had similliar vision on shrooms. Saw one face morphing into every person I know, mother, fiance, teachers from elementary school, Hitler etc. There is this One morphing into infinite faces.
  20. I wanted to comment some old post and got the notification to post a new thread instead. It is just my opinion. The fact that everything is perfect, and that all is imaginary and that there is only consciousness does not mean that we can't imrove the harmony within that dream. We can strive to decrease suffering just for the sake of it being beautiful. Of course there is no need to. I was on a Keto diet for 4 years (mainly meat, fish, eggs). So I am the last one to judge anyone. But then I watched Yurofsky speech : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U5hGQDLprA8&ab_channel=GaryYourofsky and movie Dominion (Highly recommended). And I just cried. Even though I already knew at that point that there ultimately is no suffering. That all of death and life is just a beautiful dance. That there is no good vs bad. But still with that in mind it made me shed some tears. And I stopped eating meat and went vegan the next day. Now I am vegetarian because it is so much easier to start a day with some scrambled eggs for me and I totally know that I ignore the pain of those beings just to be a little more comfortable for breakfast. Maybe I could be considered more evil than average meat-eater, because of being totally conscious of the pain but still eating my eggs. Everyone has their ignorance bar at some level and I am no different. It is not even about killing and eating. It is about the tortures that these poor souls go through in these farms. The legs of chickens are breaking because they can not withstand the fast growth. The mother cows cry for their children ( they have a very strong matternal instinct/love). They do not ever see sun. They have the same emotions that cats and dogs have. Cows and pigs for sure. Yes. Plants are also living being. Also can feel pain of some sorts. But if you care for plants too you should stop eating meat. The 80% of plant production is just for meat production. 26% of global water consumption is wasted on meat. Only 4% of calories that we feed animals is then consumed by us in the form of meat. We lose 96% of calories we would have had from plants. It is extremelly inefficient process. Kurzgesagt video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NxvQPzrg2Wg&ab_channel=Kurzgesagt–InaNutshell So if you think that plants are living beings that also should be respected then you should have even more motivation to resign from meat. Or if you just care about environment. So if you are one of those lucky people like me, that do not need meat to feel good, to be healthy - because totally for some it is needed (for example Bentinho Massaro tried to be vegan but it quickly deteriorated his health and he said it was a really powerful catalyst for him to understand the dance of life) - if you are one of those lucky ones please consider decreasing you consumption. Love ya.
  21. Yes, I totally agree it would still be huge and thats what we should focus too. I also do not eat meat at all to inspire others in a way. If maybe my family sees that I do not eat it for many years maybe it will be enough for them to deacrese consumption by 20%. Thats the function of being a change. There is nothing to disagree - I just said that it would be a treshold for me that conceptual 20%. For you it is maybe 1%. For some highly ideological propaganda vegans probably 50%.
