And it was a new one. I assume that means very young. It probably just wanted to play and say hi. This is just heartbraking 😔

I think you've messed up brother. You can avoid legal consequences but you can't avoid your conscience. The clearing of conscience is what you should focus on. And usually it involves owning the responsibility for one's mistakes, accepting the consequences, making amends. You'll be fine. It's never too late to repent and say sorry. Honesty makes all things right in the end. 🙏

I don't know why but I feel drawn to sharing some material over here. I descided to trust the voice and see what happens.

And channels spirits and does voodoo magic 😂 I'll keep that to myself for now. For some reason they are lesser known but they don't do anything without making an offering for example. They're very religious people. In a positive way. Very in touch with nature and spirit world. There're known for handling mysterious problems when conventional methods don't work. Plus I believe I could learn a lot from them just by spending time with them about spirituality in general. They have lots of wisdom.

@Sincerity yes, I believe Vivek is one of the greatest of all time. Now you know my secret

It's kinda like a self made spiritual retreat. Bali is a very spiritual place to begin with and I'm attracted to such places. I'm also hoping to meet some local spirit shamans. There are some things that believe they can help me with. Other then that, I can't help but feel like my soul guides have been arranging and planning this event for a long time and I have to go there to find out what now what's it all about. I'm excited to see what surprises God has for us. Maybe I could become a spiritual Instagram influencer, haha. Joking. But a picture with a shaman would be cool.

I know, I'm very happy about it

I don’t care about what others have to say about him. All I see is glory in him.

Honestly I love Vivek so much. Every word that he says is an orgasm to me. I've never seen that much brilliance in my life it makes me wanna cry. 🥹 He's too good.

@Shodburrito You've chosen a wrong place to look for sympathy and acceptance lol.

@Joshe ok

In a few days I will be going to Bali. I imagine I won't have the same amount of time to poke people buttons on the forum anymore, haha. As fun as it was it seems God wants me to be in Bali now. This might be a new peak for me in terms of experience and spiritual deepening. Also, I'm going with a person who used to be active on this forum. How crazy is that? This forum is crazy. Life is crazy. But it's fun.

Awareness and judgement are two different things. You can make an observation with or without the element of judgement behind it. I believe my comment that people here have low capacity for acceptence of different views is correct. Whether or not there is an element of judgement behind it is a question mark. I don't sense it personally.

I feel we're kinda forced to rely on other people's analysis because only less than 1% actually have a full picture understanding of the situation and those are the people who live and breathe politics their whole life from inside the game, not outside observers. Everyone is borrowing their understanding about politics from somebody else. It's just a matter of cherry picking the views that you like and dismissing the people with opposite views you don't like haha. The fact that you listen to opposite views and haven't yet decided who's right or wrong probably makes you the most advanced on this forum. I feel everyone else here is a sheep but you're the only one honest about it. That's a nice quality. That's a good point.

Okay you make good points. But we all are using pretty much the same metrics that you've listed. Yet somehow we all arrive at different answers of who's trustworthy and who's not. I find that interesting

I saw value in bringing awareness to the behavior that is egoic in nature. Awareness is curative.

Okay sorry I should've put more thought into my comment. Here's a more thoughtful response. Your heart is capable of relating harmoniously with every individual from every background, of every age and idealogy. But your egoic prejudices will block and narrow your loving heart only to those that suit your egoic agenda. The protection of these prejudices are not in your best interest if you wish to evolve as a human being. This is not to say that you should not have preferences tho. It's okay to desire to be in a more pleasent atmosphere than not. I would base who I want to be in company with simply by their presence, energy and wholesomeness rather than their beliefs. Their presence is what truly matters, everything else is secondary. Besides you will never find another person with exactly the same opinions as yours. So it would be wise to learn to hold different views without ostracizing and demonizing one another. That I feel is wisdom.

This is good. But you observe their level of truthfulness and judge them according to what metrics? And how do you know that you don't have blind spots where your perception is corrupted with biases?

Just say you don't know what those metrics are, haha. Nobody is going to judge you.

My claim was that there is no objective metric by which we can measure who's more truthful. Your claim was that there is. That's why I'm asking you to present the metrics lol.

I would argue it was a truthful observation rather than a judgment. If my comment came out of some sort of spite, than I apologize but I still believe the observation was correct.

Exactly. And how will you know that your own perception is not bias?

Nobody is forcing you to date them. So what's the problem?

So by what measure will you determine which person is more truthful?
