  1. Bruh? No, lol. Why did you infer that?
  2. I see, fair enough. I love your "something like that" in your expressions, it has a lot of Sugarcoatness in it
  3. You are probably one of the most well versed psychonauts out there. Looking forward to the guide!
  4. I see. What about your face card though? Show us some Sugarcutie 🤭
  5. Yeah, like I said the approach is not affirmative nor preachy. It's indirect, through Via negativa, and through pointers. But it is all about God, or the nature of reality, whatever you want to call it. Buddha didn't leave his world of pleasure to pursue some basic self-help. Only fools believe is not about Truth at the end.
  6. It's the most basic routine you will ever hear lmao. I wash my face with facial soap when I wake up and then apply oil-control sunscreen. At the end of the day, I wash my face again with facial soap, and that’s it.
  7. Ohh thanks!
  8. Can't punish me shortie 😳, I don't even exist
  9. The lucid dream moment in this reality I would imagine. Just like in the dream you just get it with no apparent cause and effect. Could be wrong tho.
  10. Can you cook up some spiritual rizz for us?
  11. They are strong, might go far
  12. What about good ol' Us of a?
  13. The survival of Soccer. Choosing a country that can give you more prestige, titles, fame, recognition, instead of your roots
  14. France's squad is basically africans
  15. Some african country or Japan is gonna win it
  16. Germany is not that good, they couldn't get out of group stage last world cup iirc. Their current generation can't match Spain, France or England.
  17. Yoo @Leo Gura, this music was playing in public today while I was waiting in the queue Leo, the infinity-pilled one
  18. @Leo Gura There's no Leo -- there's only Leoness. Leo is only a reflection on the lake
  19. @Leo Gura That's what your master looks like
  20. Very easy to misinterpret indeed. Very few here actually bothered to understand the man and read the Sutras(I was guilty of this in the past too). Even Leo is guilty of this. And people parrot even Leo's trashing and mockery of Buddhism. it's comical. Buddha's approach is bottom up. He helps you through your psychology so that you can maybe reach the spiritual, he helps to clean the ground so that you can experience the divine for yourself. It is a full cleanse. Very pragmatical but it doesn't stop at the pragmatics, that's what some fools don't understand. Yeah, and even if it could be explained, how does that help anyone? You will just believe the person or reject, nothing fundamental changes. That's why he saw methaphysical question as mostly pointless. People needs experiences not explanations and preaching. I think he saying the same thing but through a different perspective. If he said that all is self like Adi Shankara for example(which was the norm in India at that time), through his observations he must have saw that the seeker could get attached to that idea, get an ego inflation, and never get to the other shore as he puts it. So, he is absolutely negative, denying even the self so that nothing remains in your mind to get attached to. Buddha was and very much is hated in India because he destroys all the notions and image of God. How funny.
  21. Yeah, good that it was the last, what a waste of time.
  22. @Thought Art I don't know what to say. The teaching is indirect. Just because something is not hammered in your head like it is here doesnt mean that it doesnt teach it. A function of style and preference. You need to understand the difference between subtle and gross -- preaching is gross, remaning in silence and letting the seeker see for himself is subtle. Both have pros and cons. Buddha saw that preaching did more harm than good so he remained in silence and didn't answered methaphysical questions. But, that DOES NOT mean he didn't understand those things. It was a personal choice.
  23. By your logic, actualized.org is also a human system. Your skepticism is also, very human. And also, btw your cognition and your ability to understand is, guess what?Human. Buddhism does teach God-realization, but is indirect. You need to read between the lines. That is the eastern way. Do you get it? Or do I need to be more direct? lol
  24. The word God is not used in Buddhism, Jainism, Taoism and probably other religions too. But that is a function of style of teaching, specifically, the eastern way. Do you really think Buddha, Mahavira and Lao-tzu didn't know what they were talking about? The vedas, Upanishads and all other spiritual text was there, Non-duality was all around, Rishis meditating left and right preaching that God is all, God is absolute, God is Brahman. All these people kwew these ideas, but they still went on with their style of not preaching the word God. Buddhism is not about being human at all, no where it is claimed that you are human, Buddhism is about transcending the mind.
