Yes, I know. My point is oneness doesn't mean sameness. ?

I was with you until this ^ If we are talking absolute solipsism, which to me means the only mind in existence is God's mind, although who's to say God has a "mind" per se. Then, why say it like you did here- "minds outside of your own". Of course existence is non-dual, but oneness doesn't mean sameness.

The ego is an "aspect" of God, but isn't God itself. Is your ego all powerful, all knowing, omnipresent ? No, it's not.

If we are talking about "infinite", then why say solipsism? Solipsism is talking about the finite mind being the only thing in existence.

And, who is the "I" in this statement? Awareness/absolute, God or finite ego mind?

@Someone here Can you answer this part (above) that I asked you?

But, aren't you saying there are no other ppl to awaken? Ppl are just in your mind? I don't by the solipsism view and yes I heard Leo's video on it First, because you aren't even your mind. Mind is just thought, are you your thoughts or are you aware OF thought?

So, I have my own views, but I'm trying to understand your lingo. First, "your mind as god", you mean this in a literal sense? Because, I think many here think you are referring to their finite ego mind IS god. I would word it, awareness plus attributes/maya = god and since we are awareness, we by default are also god or god is us. However, we as finite humans (even if only apparently real) are not all powerfull, all knowing, etc like god. So, we do not have god-like attributes, as human beings. Can it be realized that one is awareness, absolutely. Can it be realized that god is awareness, plus maya which is creator, absolutely. From there my view is that all things in the material world/universe are only apparently real. So, all of creation, minds, bodies, etc. are all thought up, made up, by Isvara/God that is awareness with attributes/maya. Thus, this human mind/body is but an "aspect" of God the creator itself, since all things are Gods creation. Whether you want to say in an 'absolute' sense, that it is you or not. Just my two cents, as always.?

To me, "states of consciousness" have different meaning for different ppl. Just Google it and scroll, you'll see how many definitions there are. I don't use the term unless I'm also defining what I mean by it. For example, I may mean that "states of consciousness" means simply- waking, dreaming, deep sleep and altered consciousness. Then, of course saying "I am consciousness/awareness" in the absolute sense. To be honest, I don't know if I'm understanding your usage, since you are stating individual activities while awake as being different states of consciousness. To me, they are just the waking state of consciousness.

@AndylizedAAY No, I think it's about organization and prioritizing. Even grade school children can learn good time management. Just carve out a certain amount of time from your day, however amount of days you want to do a certain activity and stick to your schedule to stay on track. You can write it down on a calendar if you need it listed visually.

@AndylizedAAY It doesn't have to be an either/or, it can be both. Perhaps just work on having balance. Your work life will typically take more hours in the day. I agree with @Thought Art it may take learning some better time management.

The thing is, even if that's what was meant. How can you attack Russia with the element of surprise if you've already allowed them to take your land and government, as well as your military equipment. To me, it's now or never...

Another day? What day? When is the time right? I think the time is right, right now. While they are being attacked!

I wouldn't know if Russians admire him and I wouldn't assume so, mostly because it's a dictatorship. So, who knows how they really feel, since they don't have a right to free speech. I bet they won't love him after all these sanctions take effect. The ppl there are going to suffer for his choices.

Hm, you said in your next sentence you thought the ppl of Russia were in love with Putin until now and now you don't know how they feel. So, seems to me you were talking about Putin?

Sounds like Stockholm Syndrome that some hostages get for their captor. Dictators use intimidation, murder, imprisonment, violence and other human rights abuses to control the population under a dictatorship, much like the hostage-captor scenario.

What do you expect from a puppet.

Guess I'll take your word for it, since I don't know much about India-US relations, but you seem PISSED. That's really too bad.

Lol, because it's a dictatorship. If you aren't peaceful, you land in jail. If you protest, you land in jail. If you look at the police sideways, you land in jail. Get it? You aren't free.

Well, damn. Guess if India was getting its ass kicked in a war you wouldn't want US help then, interesting.

@sleep I've been with the same person for 34 years, since I was 17. We almost left each other a couple times in that time, but didn't and still going strong. If you want to stay with the same person it takes work. Be determined to not let it fail and you'll work it out, even if it gets rocky sometimes.

I'd rather fight for my country. Also, the other country your talking about joining is a dictatorship. No thanks!

@Danioover9000 Yes! Agree.

Alex Konanykin a Russian investor has put a $1 million bounty on Russian President Vladimir Putin's head, asking for Russian military officers to arrest Putin as a war criminal. Konanykhin told Insider that he had put up the bounty — which will come from his funds — to show that the military assault on Ukraine is not being conducted in his name. "If enough other people make similar statements, it may increase the chances of Putin getting arrested and brought to justice," he added. https://www.businessinsider.com/russian-businessman-puts-1-million-bounty-on-putins-head-2022-3

Well, with that theory every smaller nation should just hand over there country to the larger countries that threaten them, so no lives are lost. "Here ya go!"
