How would you guys describe the feeling of detachment? Does indifference come to mind or are they two seperate things?

There can't be comapssion without detachment, because being attached is keeping you seperated.

Thank you! You've really shed some light on the topic. I'm guessing it's that old depression knocking on my door again, but I don't remember that feeling of almost complete indifference in the old episodes. But I did distance myself from almost everyone. (Not that I was close to that many people either way.)

But surely Detachment is much more than that. Isn't it about not expecting and not having an emotional attachment to the outcome?

Interestingly enough there are many countries including Russia and China that don't recognize Hamas as a terrorist organization. (It's still all about the cold war, the countries that are with america and countries that are against it.) When your culture is war, violence and suicide there can't be peace. They have launched rockets at innocent civilians time after time and they will keep doing so, mark my words. One can't be a peaceful leftist with the constant threat of rockets and lynchings in their own country. Just look at the rise of anti-Semitism around the world. I agree occupation sucks balls, but the Jewish people don't have another place to call home.

Is PC culture getting out of hand?

Have you read the article I posted just above? There's always a room for constructive criticism. If enough people understand the situation and credible people will talk about it, there might be resolution eventually.

Great talk! Going deep on that subject.

Sorry you are right, it's not what my friend said it was.

@Preety_India A true warrior doesn't just attack at every chance, she is wise, she's not looking for confrontations. If need be she's defending what's right.

I would really be hesitant to call this stage green. I personally know people who I believe are stage green, they are sweethearts, just being in their presence is giving you spiritual energy. Political Left is the opposite of that. Taking Post-modernistic beliefs to extreme and being dogmatic about them sounds more like blue, yet a modern version of it. Blue Reborn, with a Green cloak. @aurum I myself have an understanding and empathy for those causes, being a minority and an immigrant, but I don't push it into peoples faces. @Flowerfaeiry Being patient with abuse is not the way to cure the abuser. There's a sickness called codependency which is busy doing exactly that.

@Opo Propagating what exactly?

@Flowerfaeiry Yes, of course it's exaggerated, to try and show a dystopic scenario of how things might get if we keep going the same way. I think they are trying to show that PC culture has infected our culture and it's dictating how things are done. If someone dares to say a different opinion than the mainstream consensus he's ridiculed and being silenced.

Does an awakened person not feel grief for the death of a loved one?

@LastThursday Good points. Perhaps it's the same as ego death grief. The fact that's it illusory doesn't make it less of loss. @No Self That's why I ask, since death is an illusion, does that cancel out grief? @Nahm Okay smartypants, does god feel grief then? @mandyjw Beautiful.

Is it possible to be absolutley authentic? How can anything in nature be inauthentic?

It can be, if misunderstood. In essence it's like antimatter to paradigms, it cancels all other perpectives and you remain in the void of an unexplained appearance. Nonetheless it is still kinda boring to use it to cancel all possible questions. "It's all just thought..." etc Non-dulity is the truth, but we can't live in that state, we have to materialize to have a sense of meaning and purpose, and in that interplay of illusions there are still interesting questions to ponder. Thank you for the great discussion dudes! Good to be here

@mandyjw It's more about not suffering because of in-authenticity.

@Nahm Yes, you may use the non-dual paradigm to solve all questions, but some questions are still worth asking. The question of being authentic is of the psychological domain, and I guess you may say that awakening is the ultimate authenticity. Or so it appears from a subjective point of view. There are just appearances, so how can we even tell? Are we back again to imagining that our subjective experience is the objective truth?
