That's an interesting perspective, but I disagree. I wouldn't recommend people contemplate suicide, I would recommend you don't suppress your emotions so whatever arises allow it to come in whatever form it comes. But definitely thinking about the end of your life as you currently are is also a healthy endeavor as well.

Even worse a secret group is just judgment anyway. Unless the group is dedicated to building or developing something. But if its just to talk its just some biased group with some sketchy parameters. If all we talk about is infinity and inclusion and learning to love unconditionally...then that would just be a straight hypocrisy. Also echo chambers....are just a waste of time so yeah we need the crazy people to know when we have gone to far, and as points of inspiration as well. Otherwise we are just stagnant robots.

Matthew....do you know what infinity is? Of course it can co-exist...its infinite. If I made infinite versions of you...they can co-exist at the same time. You do get that right? I don't even think you really understand how absolute infinity works. Absolute infinity means everything that can every exist, exists, and everything that cannot exist, also exists. Please sit down and try to contemplate this. You are totally underestimating what infinity is. Its everything at nothing at the same time. There are no limits, time cannot constrain it, not space, not gravity, it is limitless and has the ability to impose limits on itself and the only limit it gives itself is to be the most loving. This rabbit hole goes deep.....so deep it never ends....forever. You keep thinking your human body and your memories are you. Here's something to ponder...right now my body that I am currently experiencing reality through is equally YOUR body. Now take that and understand that every human's body is YOUR body. Right now that is the case, now let's go a step further. The chair in your house is EQUALLY your body, just as much as the body you call your human body. It is NO LESS YOU, than your human body. Now let's go a step further.....the EARTH is NO LESS your body than your human body....and this goes on and on into infinity.

This is an interesting video about Mushrooms and their place in history in relation to Human Evolution. Check it out and ponder what it could mean.

CRISPR technology has been out and been accessible for a while now so I'm not concerned. Even better, whatever happens is meant to happen in the grand scheme of things. I believe ultimately everything will work out in the end. Do I believe humanity will almost wipe themselves out? Absolutely. But emphasis on almost, I think that will be what it takes for us to awaken collectively and join the other intelligent species in the Universe who are watching us and to connect with them.

You have a very unique way of using words that I find very intriguing. I tip my hat to you.

Exactly. The human is like a robot, and all awakening is realizing that robot/human/puppet isn't you, you are the puppeteer which has mistaken itself as the puppet. But since duality is illusion you are actually both.

You are both. The human awareness level is a spark, but if your awareness level is pushed to its highest level you go infinite....but then you exit the dream. If you want to experience that go take 5 MEO DMT/ MALT either one of these two and you can experience it, or go meditate for 30 to 40 years.

Your quotation words are hilarious...I can't with you!!!

Sometimes Revolution is what is needed. America has been headed in that direction for awhile.

Yeah I agree, and the book was mentioned in the video too I believe as well. Exactly true. Also apparently.....the bacteria in our intestines...influence what we choose to eat as well by releasing chemicals that interface with our brain. Its very funny how nature is so got dang subtle.

Thank you I am glad you realized. I do believe that there are people who have structural issues with their brains and I think even that can eventually be fixed the more we learn about how the body works. The body is self-healing, self-cleaning biological machine and we are only tapping the surface of what it is capable of.

You wouldn't even know scurvy was real unless someone were to tell you about it, or you experience it yourself. If you grow up in an environment where scurvy is eradicated, and all history of its existence is gone....it doesn't exist. What is real is what you are aware of, that is what is real to you. If you imagine an elephant in your mind you don't think its real, but if that image dropped in front of you and started breaking stuff to you then it is real. So laugh, but that is the case. The average person doesn't even know what scurvy is for a reason.

How much you wanna bet? Here is just one example. https://www.webmd.com/add-adhd/childhood-adhd/attention-deficit-hyperactivity-disorder-adhd#:~:text=ADHD is the most commonly,t be prevented or cured. And they don't even have any real criteria to diagnose someone as having this issue.

Well yeah, if I put you out in the cold long enough you can get hyperthermia. Hyperactivity is just a result of overstimulation like kids get hyper if you give them candy, or a crack addict can't stay still without their "fix." I struggled with ADD symptoms my entire life, and it took one freaking mushroom to cure it. But I realize even the mushroom really only cured it by showing me "it was my own creation." Our brains are wired by years and years of conditioning. Its why I say modern society creates mental illness. I could write a whole book on how we create it. We create it through our food, (pollute the body), through our pollution of the earth, (pollutes the body as well), through our over reliance on technology that has made our brain become conditioned to having constantly flashing lights and sounds as its BASELINE, (brain needs constant stimulation) then we grow up on a society that focuses on developing the logical part without ever teaching or encouraging meditation, so you create a habit of thinking constantly. Then we have a culture that pushes for individualism at the exclusion of collectivism which creates fear as we focus on our differences. So modern society creates an environment that creates fear, attachment, neediness, discrimination, addiction to pleasure/stimulation, and we call this progress. So then when you try to introduce someone to something outside of this modern paradigm like meditation, psychedelics, and alternative practices they think these things inferior and say this is just how I am. I've never said the symptoms are fake, but the belief that it is something permanent, and unfixable is what is fake. Hypothermia isn't something real when you have ways to prevent it, Scurvy is not real when you have ways to prevent it, small pox is not real when you have ways to prevent it, and ADD and hyperactivity is not real when you have ways to prevent, or get rid of it. We could eradicate all these things, as they are just results of imbalance. Until we do....we will suffer our ignorance. Suffering is actually the root cause or catalyst of human progress so I guess we need more suffering to CHOOSE to end it all.

Good video review of the Truman Show. The powerful nature of this movie and how it relates to today is incredible. Some Movies are Timeless and this is a good example of one. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cHdp4iGjVUs&ab_channel=Moon

Canada is supposed to be one of the more progressive countries, if that is happening then wow... that leaves me speechless.

^ Joe hit it on the head. Once you can find out what it means to YOU then you will be able to communicate it. The key to finding answers is to ask questions. So you kept repeating that it is the truth. So the first question is.....what is truth? Next question. Why does Spirituality matter? What does it provide? How does Spirituality differ from religion? What are the dangers/traps of Spirituality? What is true Spirituality? The path to knowledge is questions. Ask the right questions and you can obtain the answers you seek.

Yeah would be an interesting experiment. I hope it happens.

These are the things I need to focus on.

This will be my journal that will chronicle how I choose to embody this video in my life. I'm glad to have had people in my life who I have given space to be honest, and also sometimes angered which triggered their honesty and so there is an awareness of some deficits I have. My main issue or struggle is listening to another's perspective and learning it completely. I have a very know it all energy, which even though I don't know it all I can come across as if I think I do which rubs people the wrong way. It also makes me sensitive when someone attempts to teach me when I do not believe I need "correction" or a "lesson." Its interesting because what I have learned about life is karma is real, its also the same as the law of attraction. What you put out you will receive. Since I like to teach, correct, or provide a lesson I will draw those to me who will do the same. Your life will give you what you give to others, so be careful what you give because you will receive it back. Its like cooking spoiled chicken and it giving it to someone and getting mad when it finds it way back to you. Anyway the video I am choosing to embody to integrate into my life is this one. A person in the comment section Jenny Gao listed the many points in Leo's video. I was doing my own list until I saw there list and basically got lazy and was like "They probably have all the points he made." So I admit I am going on blind faith (I was an hour in of recording his examples with an hour to go left) but I am sure they got the gist of it. So here is their list. List of how to love. (As written down by Jenny Gao (Youtube Comment Section) Giving it attention and awareness - Being in physical proximity, physical contact - Connection (physical, emotional, intellectual, spiritual, etc) – Taking good care of it, helping to meet its needs, sheltering it from excessive trauma, fear and or suffering - Taking its agenda as your own, making its agenda and it an extension of you - Treating others as well as you would like to treat yourself - Be happy when it succeeds - Wanting for it what it wants for its own, even when it may be very different from your own - Sacrificing for it on its behalf, and work on their behalf - Supporting, nurturing, and encouraging what is in alignment with their self-expression, self-exploration, and self-actualization; being a cheerleader - Respecting its sovereignty, not holding yourself as better or more dominant - Total acceptance of it as it is, absence of judgment - Valuing the thing for its own sake, not for what you need - Appreciate them as they are - Seeing its intrinsic, infinite beauty - Not needing anything from this other - Respecting their point of view, wanting to understand their point of view - Listening and caring about their interests, sharing common interests - Sense of togetherness and company, collaboration - Being there when the other feels down, hopeless, at their lowest - Helping the other to not feel lonely - Validating its feelings, empathizing (“How are you feeling?”) - Sharing emotions - Caring about its suffering for its own sake - Meeting the other where they are at - Understanding and forgiveness, not demonizing and moralizing them - Being patient - Seeing the god and the good in them even when they don’t - Recognition of its uniqueness - Generosity and kindness - Verbal approval and praise, compliments - Keeping your promises - Maintaining peace - Telling the truth - Safety and trust - Seeing the other’s realness as it is - Appreciating the finite portion of consciousness as it really is, out of the infinite consciousness - Fully accepting, and not be disturbed by its selfishness, and not wanting to change it Love = Selflessness Okay so the parts I put in bold are the parts I fall short, could improve upon. The parts I have in ITALICS I have nailed down. So this shows my main weakness when it comes to relating to people is Emotional Empathy. This is actually normal for most Men as we are trained to repress ignore emotions. Now I am not terrible at this, but I am not exactly stellar at this either. Most of the time I am aware when I am doing it and I try to justify it to myself when I know better. I've constantly been promoting this book I read on the forums because it actually teaches techniques on how to be more empathetic emotionally but doing it in a logical way, basically with techniques!! This book is important because socially we are moving more towards an empathy/emotional based model in the society when it comes to leadership. You are already seeing it in sports when it comes to who gets to keep Coaching jobs such as in the NBA. So I am going to pick a technique from the book I am referencing called "Never Split The Difference." https://www.amazon.com/dp/B018FHCPDO/ref=dp-kindle-redirect?_encoding=UTF8&btkr=1 Its called Tactical Empathy which is basically a marriage of the Masculine Tactical, with the Feminine Empathy. What could be better than this? This video gives a nice summary of the book. One flaw in the video I noticed though at the 4:38 minute mark where he stated the woman could say "I didn't say that..." don't do that lol. The statement I did not say that, or I did not do that, are statements that communicate that you believe the person you are speaking to you is dishonest or not listening which will cause conflict. I know the person who made the video was well meaning but every action you take needs to generate connection not break it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OaEw7ZFs5sU&t=542s&ab_channel=SuccessfulByDesign So the first technique I will practice is the summary. You get to the summary by listening to what the person says and labeling their premise but using the phrase "It seems like ......" This shows you are paying attention and are trying to grasp the gist of what they are saying. Once you are able to repeat back to the person what they are saying (basically the spirit or essence of what they are trying to communicate) then you will get a phrase such as "That's right, You got it, Exactly!" At this point NOW you can communicate your perspective. When you do so, don't accuse the person of trying to do something to harm you. Merely discuss how you are seeing it. You can even bring in what is called an accusations audit with the phrase "I know I must seem arrogant and irrational here but here is how I am seeing it." This lets the person know you are in tune with how they are perceiving things. Anyway this will be a struggle because it goes against all my conditioned patterns, wish me luck!! If you find this of benefit check the book out and their Youtube Channel as well! https://www.youtube.com/c/Blackswanltd1

This is a pipedream. If you think this is friendship then you don't know what friendship is. This entire list you gave....is judgment. You are basically saying if someone doesn't fufill all these qualities then they aren't friends when you don't even fulfill this list with your own self. You just violated your own rule by making the list in the first place. Stop looking for "perfect" friends. A real friendship is understanding that people will let you down, and still sticking by. I've had friends who have betrayed me, and stuck by them. As a result in the future they came through. Sometimes people will let you down, and not because it has something to do with you but because of a fear/insecurity issue they have with themselves. I see so many people saying its hard to make friends....its not friends are easy WAYY to easy to make a friend. How to make a friend? Be willing to give and GET NOTHING BACK IN RETURN. When you enter in with that mindset you set yourself apart and as a result the person WANTS to give to you.

Narcissists and psychopaths are not the same thing. Most psychopaths are NOT in positions of power in modern society. Majority of serial killers are psychopaths. A psychopath can cut the head off a human and feel absolutely NO REMORSE. People who lack that much empathy generally cannot even live in the same area for long much less get married or have a life and this man became a professor. Narcissists and sociopaths fare slightly better, because they are able to feel empathy just very little but a psychopath feels NO EMPATHY. Your comment reveals a lot of hurt and pain associated with low empathy people. Work through that, and accept the things they did no matter how painful as what happened. I'm sorry for the pain they have caused you. I've gotten over much of the things people like that have done to me, and all I personally see is love so one day maybe you can get to that place as well. All things serve a purpose, they exist for a reason.

Simple....create it. Provide the music you believe is missing.

Sometimes people want to vent...
