I wouldnt quite compare Enlightenment to those other things. But who I am to tell you anything? Ask yourself this question, would you rather be lucid and know what`s up or not? You need patience, the road is long, that`s why almost no one is Enlightened(including people here who preach they are)but if you want, just eat, drink, and be merry until you get bored

You come into this world empty-handed and you are also going empty-handed. Think about all the greatest conquerors and human beings, where are they now? Dust unto dust. Doesn't this create a great longing in you? That everything is so fleeting and in a sense nothing really matters because it does not last. Enlightenment is a journey to(perhaps I dunno) know the deathless, something that truly last and fulfill you. Otherwise you are just a hamster in a wheel -- doing, doing, doing and not accomplishing anything really. From desire to desire, chasing your tail. Ending either in boredom or frustation. Just waiting for Death to take everything from you.

Either settle for a stage green/yellow-ish woman or hope to get abducted by a hot pleiadian woman

Not sure if this qualifies you to the cool guys awakening club™️, but thanks for answering

Interesting, but is that realization still with you? Can you taste it at will?

Hmm, fair enough. Then let me make one up, do you know what death is?

Porn defender, now that`s something

Living like a space kangaroo might be nice

Are you awake?

Does a tree fall in the forest if you're not there to listen? Does prior and after exist?

Quotable.

This. But op is an INTP, thinking is his world even when listening to music. The music is just the circumference for him while thinking is the center. A shame if you ask me It might also be the reason why he dislikes Leo's type of music. Leo's music taste is not very complex or sophisticated like classical music for example. It is very simple for the most part. This bores people who likes 'complex' music like classic or something, they need a lot of variety because they are there with their heads and the head is bound to become bored at some point.

I was joking, Ralston is high quality.

I agree with you, but I feel @UnbornTao is basically a Leo critic at this point. The irony is that he believes in Ralston so it's funny to watch the fights happening here. Like you said elsewhere. Who has the biggest spiritual dick contest.

It's definetly not harmless, plenty of people have problems with it. But also is a complex issue because plenty of people watch and don't have problems with it. It depends, I don't think one can say it's overall bad and that it should be banned or restricted based on a statistic or something.

If one cannot speak it, why is this silly guy speaking about it? The things one do to survive

Yeah, but the model does show priorities, so there's some truth to head types being insensitive to emotional stuff and texture of life in general. But also, the model is pretty limited too.

Of course. You guys are basically half-dead, cant feel shit

Just observe, that you are conscious right now of that gap in your consciousness. If it didnt exist how can you be conscious of it? Sleep exist, but you are only conscious of it after you awake from it.

A finite perspective exists, but it can definetly go, hint: deep-sleep. But if you are saying that you can exist as form and not in a infinite perspective then I dont know that yet. Maybe you can be infinite while being finite.

Yeah, finite perspective... But then that`s your definition of ego? If I am not in an Arupa Jahna(formless states) that means I have an ego? Finite = ego, is that what you mean?

NewExistenceOnTheBlock

That's cute. But get a little less abstract. You are saying that my form as it stands its ego? my pov? what you are trying to say? If I don't have a talking voice in my head does that mean I dont have ego? What do you say about that?

@Joseph Maynor What is ego for you？Your thoughts ? Your psychological pattern? Your body? The centrality in your head? Depending on your answer I think you might be incorrect here.

It's biology all the way down. Lizard brain type shit. Good looks and physique means better chances of survival, more confort, security, all the things we apes love and want.
