  1. Music - Live Performances

    Joseph Maynor replied to CARDOZZO's topic in Off-Topic: Pop-Culture, Entertainment, Fun

  2. I spent a lot of time studying music theory years ago. Nowadays I don't need much theory. It depends on what genre of music you play too. As a Jazz trumpet player, I don't need to know the level of theory that a Jazz piano player needs to know for example. I need enough theory to look at a chart and decide how I am going to take a solo over the changes for a tune that I haven't played before.
  3. Thank you for being here too.
  4. But notice how he guides someone through an inquiry which he controls as a process. A lot of spiritual teachers do this.
  5. Unless someone else thinks they are God, then you have a problem lol.
  6. Emerson is going to put you through a process where you realize he is right and you are wrong in some way.
  7. I figured it out. This is someone who is using language against someone -- but also using language. This is very common with some spiritual teachers.
  8. I will review this carefully and respond.
  9. What I'm seeing watching the video is two guys talking about spirituality. I have nothing to say about it other than what it is actually.
  10. Okay. Got it. I will watch the video in full and give a response.
  11. Are you talking about Ralph Waldo Emerson?
  12. We're getting at the crux of the issue guys. This is getting deep.
  13. Who is creating the other gods?
  14. Well, if you want to create that, have at it!
  15. It depends on who you think The Creator is, in part.
  16. Not everything is a story. But a lot is lol.

    Old man is another one.
  18. I think isms are creations rather properties of The Divine.

  19. insecurity

    Joseph Maynor replied to Olaf's topic in Dating, Sexuality, Relationships, Family

    This is really tricky issue because -- as you suggest -- sometimes acting like you are confident is the biggest signal of insecurity. This gets into the issue between persona and authenticity. But really even when we are being authentic, we have a degree of persona too.
  20. So Omnipotence makes sense as a pointer.
  21. Social circle is kind of a nebulous concept in practice.
  22. This is also a created narrative.

  23. Cringe Megathread? Cringe Megathread!

    Joseph Maynor replied to Natasha Tori Maru's topic in Off-Topic: Pop-Culture, Entertainment, Fun

    Just to show how cringe movie critics seem to be. I saw Resident Evil in the theater today and it seems to have received very good reviews. https://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/resident_evil_2026
  24. You guys should just do a free for all interview and have a real conversation.
  25. I'm looking forward to watching this.
