No, I feel like the only insider.

He is talented in saying no in semi-amusing ways.

We need more good content for career change.

There seems to be a need to agree or disagree that is the crux of these discussions.

Not thanks but no thanks lol?

Do you see how mind factors into what you say?

He seems like Eckhart Tolle to me but he is pointing to the Now without words.

What do you like about Jim Newman?

The problem is when it gets overly intellectual and constricting with the beliefs that are not seen as thoughts. I like James Swartz.

This seems to be the main teaching of many neo-advaitans -- There is no separate self.

@James123 This is really good. Notice though when he talks about the I Am, that does not get deleted by the no self retort.

He helped me on my path. That I can say.

Understand me please. Hey!

Think of science as basically providing the intellect behind engineering.

Preachers can be entertaining more or less, so there's that.

But is having ego wise if your job is to criticize others' ego?

I'm not sure science is taking a Truth perspective. Why is this a hang up? Scientists are concerned with cataloging observable patterns and testing them through direct experience.

I was on his forum for 4 years. I got to know him quite well.

It makes sense that manipulators would prefer you to think you have no self.

He is building a course on this, you folks need to be patient.

Humor can be nasty too. How we treat people is more important than humor at the end of the day.
