It is kinda true that tall guys even if they are goofy tend to get more attractive women. But I have seen short guys get very attractive women too.

There is the psychedelic experience and then there is the interpretation of it.

The normalization of fantasy has become a problem.

You are a great interviewer. You know how to lay back and allow people to talk.

I'll do an interview with @Inliytened1 if he wants to.

The Masculine has a confidence in the individual. Gender is not synonymous with this. You can be very Masculine as a female.

Rupert Spira lol.

We should do group videos. Like a Zoom call that becomes a video. This would invite more people to participate.

People who are brave enough to show up on here in person get my respect for what that is worth! The rest of you can aspire to that!

Even eating a carrot means you had to end the natural life of that carrot.

The key is in realizing what yourself/Yourself is. That is the issue.

Right on guys!

@Jirh Except for the fact that in spirituality, ultimately, there can only be one spiritual teacher.

@AION Man, they are really piling on you. Hang in there bro.

@Emerald The issue to me is the problem of the duality of the relative vs. The Absolute. Seems like a lot of people see others operating from the relative and can point that out, but then have a blind spot about their own relative perspective -- i.e., they kinda sidestep that and assume they have access to The Absolute without any bias.

Part of the problem here is assuming thinking is conceptualizing. I broaden thinking to creating, especially artistic creating. So when we say: Can the Absolute can be known? This doesn't mean it has to be known conceptually. It is thought directly -- not conceptually. The Creator can recognize itself without concepts. This is "Self-Realization", but way beyond where most people think the scope of this word is because they develop a concept of The Absolute, and then indefinitely identify with that meaning. Their concept of Self-Realization comes from Indian Philosophy not from direct experience.

You get to a point where you can see through a lot of nonsense.

There is truth in this. People tell you what they want, not what they have a lot of the time. If you had it, you wouldn't need it.

Then we have the arrogantly humble people.

@Inliytened1 Do you know your MBTI?

Manifestation is really simple. You either manifest it or you don't.

I'd like to see you do more interviews and discussion with others about what you say here.

I think so. You can read Spinoza for a great pointer. Philosophy is a great pointer for sober awakenings.

Let the man cook. I agree.
