  1. Very true.
  2. Yes. And then the question is now what? Lol.
  3. When I did my philosophy program in college it was like 50% men and 50% women. Women can like philosophy!
  4. We can go in the direction of There is no ... and There is ... with equal measure. But both of these come to a certain saying of no.
  5. I feel like every Creator in a certain artform has good stuff. There's some doozies in there too, of course!
  6. I wouldn't say that, necessarily, but if I met you in person my intuition would be stronger (in the sense of accuracy). Intuition runs on what information we have access to.
  7. I have a respect for feeling. It's a complex subject though. Intuition may be a form of feeling. But yeah! It's a kind of seeing.
  8. The vibe.
  9. Those videos are so good! The interaction is amazing! It think they are good for understanding what is going on with neo-advaita.
  10. Watch those two videos and look at how he relishes saying no like a stubborn kid almost. It's weird once you see it.
  11. Neo-advaitans seem to be obsessed with saying no. They love that.
  12. This is a very good description of Love IMO. Realizing everyone has a different/differing Truth on some level. I know this is paradoxical -- if one is looking at things from a Truth perspective alone.

  13. What is some music you like?

  14. I agree. In the context of health, overthinking is often the opposite of what needs to be done. It's diet, exercise, and getting off addictions. That's all action-taking and habit re-formation.

  16. This is a very fascinating statement actually.
  17. My take from reading Ramana Maharshi (mostly written not by him notably) is his primary teaching is snuffing out the I-Thought. I seriously doubt he is a solipsist. He would not attach to the mind in this way, I don't think.
  18. Who is letting go?
  19. I didn't realize there is a Part 2. I love it.
  20. This is the ultimate neo-advaita video IMO. Hilarious.
  21. How do you know the body exists?
  22. There seems to be a Purpose or we might call it a Telos that is driving toward growth and Wisdom. There's a Point to It.
  23. I'm actually not an athiest. My insight is that Truth/Reality/God whatever you want to call it is concerned with personal development, teaching, learning.
  24. @Inliytened1 Do you have a view as to whether Reality/Truth/God has a purpose and what that purpose is?
  25. This sounds like the no separate self insight.
