She did the same thing with Leo. I understand pushback to get a deeper understanding but she seems to just disagree and never try to understand

Perfect actually

Whatever's works I guess. If someone has the confidence to say that and it works then that's great.

If he never did we wouldn't never had heard his message. There's pros and cons. And paradoxes everywhere you look. As a fan of Leo you should know that

Krishnamurti would disagree with that. Life is only a fight because we are perusing our egos and trying to become something. Krishnamurti would say a bud doesn't try and become a flower yet it does anyway.

Yes but his question was is ok to die a virgin. Of course it's ok. Our debased sex obsessed society will tell you otherwise. There's a great quote by 17th century French writer François de La Rochefoucauld in his book of maxims: " There are some people who would never have fallen in love if they hadn't heard there was such a thing." There is huge social conditioning to think it's not ok to die a virgin. It's in large part corporate brainwashing to get us to spend more. In many societies celebacy is celebrated. So much waste, idiocy, sorrow, evil comes from the hedonistic persuit of sexual pleasure. But yes if OP wants to get laid and stuff I encourage that also. I value freedom of choice.

K would reply that one shouldn't "become" a doctor but do what feels natural.

My favorite quote by K is "a man in the persuit of becoming something, is a very sick man"

Haha 😆

https://www.practicalphilosophy.club/ If anyone wants to discuss these topics IRL check out this practical philosophy club in a city near you. It operates worldwide, free to join, and it's where regular people talk about philosophical subjects every week without the dry academic jargon. Its a lot of fun and great for people who are into self development and deep philosophical discussions.

I think that this is a big reason most women are younger than their partners.

The irony is that doing this will give you the highest chances of getting a gf, given that you don't blow the chance and open your mouth to say a few words when the opportunity arises. But yes it's 100% ok to die a virgin, Isaac Newton did. Sex is like heroin or money, it never satisfies long term and with it come more unanticipated problems, not to mention the offspring that sometimes come with it. Sex is a complete delusion that is ment to trick you into reproducing. Vowing off sex is one of the smartest, most intelligent, and peaceful things you can do.

Lol exactly! Funny enough a great tell that someone is insecure about their worldview is how vehemently they are willing to argue for it. Staying busy arguing specific points is a good distraction from uncomfortable yet obvious contradictions in any given worldview. That's why religious people get so angry when you criticize their religion. When the facts and logic aren't favorable, religious people will simply dig their heels down as far as possible. If they admit even the slightest concession the whole story quickly falls apart. That being said, if capatilists are to be intellectually honest, they too have to admit that communism might have some truth to it. As the title of the famous book by Haltom goes "The Others Fellow May be Right"

Sad but true. The irony is that one of Leo's top pieces of advice is to be radically open minded. Thousands of times he's said that it's how he got to where he is. Alas, the closed mindedness on this forum is great example that all teachings become corrupted by the students and no place is pure. BUT... this forum is better than most places on the Internet and maybe even the best place for open mindedness.

It is the dawning of the age of Aquarius, Aquarius! @Elliot you could be right, but so could capitalists. Nobody has a crystal ball, and nobody knows what the future will bring, not even Mao. Of course we have to fight for the future we want but nobody actually knows what is the right way to do things; reality or too complex to account for all variables! Thats the crux of running a society.

Exactly right, there is many very interesting people who share similar interests as people on this forum. Closed minded people unfortunately exist everywhere.

Wow that's interesting, im feeling much lighter all of a sudden! Thanks!

LOL without salt we die

Friends told me about it.

Awesome!

I understand that but will they? How do you convince 8 billion people of that? Make them watch Leo's Videos?

Yes they serve the function of unifying some people but at the cost of dividing them from others. What if we all taught our kids to identify as just people of earth instead of Christian, Muslim, French, or Chinese?

Yes kinda true

The first claim in this video, the guy is arguing that women make better leaders while the women argue the opposite! This is truly a mind fuck.

Everything is a miracle isn't? Vision is a miracle, evolution is a miracle, muscles contractions are a miracles, digestion is a miracle, airplanes are miracles, etc....
