I doubt that, especially since they changed coach. Argentina and England are stronger contenders, imo.

Yep. The only team that can't envy Spain's midfield is Portugal.

@Sincerity Looking good!

Spain, France, Portugal.

It definitely helps. I'm obviously not familiar with your condition, but yes, as with stretching the body, the muscles and nervous system will eventually get accustomed due to them being trained. I wasn't saying to choose one over the other. Movement is beneficial. If you want to sit for about half an hour, or whatever you find slightly physically challenging, then you just do it until the body adapts - and again, I don't know what your condition is. This isn't medical advice. It could simply be a limiting belief, an excuse, maybe a lack of desire or discipline to do so, or something else entirely. Training is useful, in any case. I'd say it's more about being mindful than about sitting down or mechanically following a ritual.

Yep, sounds good. I thought you were actually being pedantic about a superficial point like semantics. Use the quote function, God.

Of course. You set the criterion, like how many drugs are taken. So when are you finally going to turn alien on camera?

God is an infinitely conscious self-recursive system with perception mediating the bridge between everyday awareness and Absolute Love. See? Talk is cheap. Now imagine that it isn't so blatant. Start talking like that. Polish that kind of nonsense and expand on it, and gullible people will love it and start thinking of yourself as "awakened." They won't know the difference.

My God. Charlatans.

Buddha didn't really use the term God. "God has no religion."

@Leo Gura I hope the sarcasm didn't pass you by.

I haven't deliberately taken up this practice, but probably a few months.

Yeah, that's the point. Especially since, for the followers involved in the fantasy, "the truth" has already been laid down, and by itself it is a mere abstraction subject to interpretation.

OK, let's get back to semen, don't derail the thread.

No religion or sect ever claims to be after falsehood. In practice, it's almost always "the truth" they're after: a preconceived fantasy which they then set out to validate. 'There's the truth... and "the truth".' - The Simpsons

And then there are the dynamics that are actually at play. When you hear 'philosophy', hear system of belief. You can judge for yourselves if that's true.

There are past threads dealing with this dynamic, you could start with the Teal Swan one. But just pay closer attention to what goes on underneath the rhetoric and with some of the interactions.

Just go with Times New Roman and to hell with us all.

Yes, this is what's proclaimed on paper, as usual - and then there's what people actually do, and what the communications tend to actively encourage.

You were the one mentioning science, which is a form of language. But it is deep (that's what she..) Language creates mind and so on. What's an experience of the world without language? It can't even be conceived in the first place.

Hmm, 4 and 12, and perhaps 15.

I don't, and you should consider that it isn't, despite liking it. Cultism is a powerful drug.
