  1. Doing nothing and being lazy are not the same thing.
  2. It works for me.
  3. No, as a kid I didn't really care but thanks for asking.
  4. I'd say math's a human invention, a language.
  5. Grasp experientially the bottom line underlying the behavior. Go where you're doing it, so to speak; get it as an assumption that you're holding about yourself. Once done, getting free from it occurs naturally.
  6. Forward. It will empower your learning and expose you to subjects and avenues you haven't even considered.
  7. Useful for what? When it comes to enlightenment work, religion is in fact an impediment and totally unneeded. This isn't to say value can't be found by following a religion, but why would you want that? You can pursue whatever value or principle that's empowering in a particular religion and leave the dogma and rituals aside. Why do people fall into religion in the first place?
  8. Dealt with a toxic exchange. Keep the discussion on track and be respectful to each other.
  9. It isn't about the author or belief system but about the communication, which stands on its own. That said, I don't know Leo's motivations.
  10. It's worth it to contemplate what worry is. Seems to be related to fear and the future, but I don't know.
  11. @Razard86 Close is too far when talking about enlightenment. One might be open and contemplative, and that seems to help, but ultimately it is a matter of being conscious or not, and this is direct. I don't think there's a requisite or a process involved, in other words the only requirement is direct experience into your nature which is already the case.
  12. Yes. In addition to that, regardless of knowledge, there's the possibility of direct consciousness of reality.
  13. Create a new thought you've never had before, out of nothing. That's thinking.
  14. There might be a deeper lesson, or not. Those zen guys... The joy of rediscovering something you thought lost.
  15. I know, my point is that for you and everyone else they are ideas to be believed and adopted, not insights. You'd need to grasp the validity of the communication for real through contemplation, at which point the invention isn't needed. That's why I said we're comparing belief systems. Sufism and Zen, perhaps.
  16. A Call of Duty chatroom of 13 years olds but with government officials.
  17. Maybe a new video would come out.
  18. @Princess Arabia Agree. I'm pointing out an annoyance of mine, in the end. Hey, become a genius yourself, then you can tell us what that's like.
  19. Please do, that'd be interesting.
  20. Stupidity is unconscious. It is lying and ignoring, not being intelligent. I was hinting at the genius of existence and creation, and then mentioned a superficial idea about it.
  21. Is love being me? Is love being? Is being love? Is love being?
