I don't mean your wording specifically, I mean in general trying to put my thoughts into words into a way to is easy to interpret for others when it comes to this subject. It seems to be a common problem people with this insight struggle with.

They are very understanding and relaxing to talking to, people generally like that but of course your average Joe is going to be confused and lack in understanding of the enlightens persons life choices and may want the enlighten person to be more neurotic, jealous etc.

Nothing We got a circle here, everything is nothing and that's something. Enought with these mind games

Something = an illusion created by an simple mind

Annoying with the wording in regards to this subject, words don't really cut it Either way we mean the same thing if I interpret you correctly. @Joseph Maynor Reading our responses won't cut it for you, knowledge is not good enought, sorry

You = me. We see, hear and feeling the same thing. Problem "you" can't remember what "I" experience

@blissofbeing Now's that's interesting

Don't eat street food or milk products the first thing you do, completely different bacteria down there. As for the girl well I suppose they are a bit more conservative, so it can be preferable to avoid lots of physical contact in public.

We are intelligent but still our needs and desires are primitive, this makes us do thing that only serves us, in ways that aren't sustainable for anyone.

I'm male so I would become female, I do what I normally do. If there is something that I did not expected to be different, I'd would learn something new. Perhaps a bit selfish but, (assuming I get a more feminine brain) I would also take a look at my life from that perspective to see if I have overlooked something in my life, in order to improve it. I already know that i'm going to get catcalled more then now and that i'm going to be unconformable waking home alone(especially in my neighborhood), so I don't find that partially interesting.

Shadow Philosophy: "It's really simple, you bring two sides together, they fight. A lot of them die but those who survive are stronger,smarter and better"

@Lorcan Depends what you mean by worship. Praying in order to get something material: no. Meditation: sure https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Worship#Buddhism

Interesting.....

Not needing others, but being appreciative of other who wants to spend their time with you, is the best approach to friendships and relationships. In my experience: luck is almost the biggest factor, you make one friend, you become happier and less "needy" and make more friends so even you lose that first one at least you have some others so that you can relax and don't have to suffer like this. What you are going through can also be channeled into something positive, by feeling lonely you will become more appreciative of other who speak to you, with the right technique you can give them something unique. By giving people the feeling that you truly listen and care, they will start to really appropriate talking to you, because it's really uncommon. So how do you show them this? Holding strong eye contact when something is talking, so much that it's feels awkward even. Put your head at an slight angle when listening.

Unfortunately, the easiest way to find your self to be all-forgiving is to suffer immensely, in other words to experience hell. Something I recommend? Not at all, but I feel like it should be mentioned. Why? Because you come to realize why people hurt you and why they therefore deserve your forgiveness.To become forgiving of every possible deed done to you, you most first become unconditionally loving to all. This topic is one of those were knowledge won't cut it, you will require insight into the topic to really get anywhere. Try to identify why you hurt others be it by accident or not, then you try to project that into others and try to identity why others hurt each other. It is key that you identify it yourself and don't find the information online, that would only confuse you and distract from the truth.

If you need to prove yourself to others you most likely lack in self-confidence, deep down you feel like your not enought and that you have to prove to others that your are. If this behavior is started by doing spiritual practices or it's revealed by it, don't regret going on this journey it simply reveals more about who you are and what you need to work on. Don't beat yourself up about it, it will pass eventually. I find that listening is better then talking, you get almost nothing from talking, by listening you can learn things and you can experience others feelings and stories, best of all you can't be prideful if you don't talk. Am i saying you should not talk at all? no of course not but you can limit it and think about what you want to say, a few seconds in advance. Although I think this is very very common, I was quite arrogant before starting this journey, that turned into smugness and now will a feeling of having superior knowledge about life compered to those around me. The latter is not shown to others, as the need to prove myself or feeling that i'm more importerat is no longer a thing. Instead if someone is really happy to get wasted or finds that food to be the best thing in life, I struggle to find common ground with them and I find myself pitying them, having a need to "help". Of course i know there is very little i could do and that they don't want my help. So instead i try to bring the conversation elsewhere. This is not optimal and I would prefer to simply obtain an acceptance for how so many of us are and no longer feel pity and wanting to help them unless asked.

I can't define happiness, but it is a state of being just being like miserable. The closets word I could think of is "content". Although I think that mostly reflects what I think would make me happy, rather then a definition.

I would be really careful about making that a habit,sexual dreams or any other activities that strongly rewards you for doing nothing, can lead to unforeseen consequences.

Feels great, became a strange habit for me, crying myself to sleep every night, but those times are no more. You kind of have to force it the first time, focus you mind around your lungs with some sad music.

You have higher neuroplasticity so probably.

@Joseph Maynor That psychedelics are bad, are they?Well that's for you to decide.

Really beginner question here, but is it possible to contemplate what my life purpose is? I would spend the whole day if I have too, even the rest of the week.

@Andrey This one I can really recognize in myself, currently i'm studying IT. Perhaps it would it could serve you to try something else, perhaps something that deals with more people. Not saying you should quit your career but, maybe there is something else you could try on the weekends if you have time to spare. Try to discover what it is the makes your work rub you the wrong way and possibly try to modify it that to improve the situation.

There is no such thing as individual souls althought that does not mean that there can't be entity's that exist outside the three spacial dimensions. But I dont believe in ghosts either way.
