Age 36 thru 40 was a great time for me.

It depends on whether you are a leader or a follower. A node or a relation. But all of us are going through the same experience.

@Emerald Yes and if someone sees the human as something to rid themself of, you can see where that misses the very first premise.

That is a key issue in philosophy. Many philosophers have argued that epistemology is just more metaphysics.

I think of not knowing like this. When I am going to play an improvisational solo I roughly know what I am going to do before I play it -- i.e., I am going to play a solo for 2 choruses when it is my turn to take a solo. But the not knowing is that I do not know exactly what I will play because the solo will be entirely improvised. The creation flows out of nothing which is the question or the not knowing.

Maybe the self is created.

So you must be constantly criticizing yourself then.

I don't think anyone believes in this.

I think Orange is ignored or bypassed, not necessarily transcended in many, but not all cases.

Many spiritual people see this as a step backward rather than a step forward in my experience. That does not mean they are right.

Burning Man is a week-long large-scale desert event focused on "community, art, self-expression, and self-reliance" held annually in Black Rock Desert about 100 miles (160 km) north-northeast of Reno. (Wiki)

If conflation of survival with spirituality is wrong, and you are surviving, how are you breaking free from this yourself?

All around?

He doesn't know bro.

He loves it lol.

But nobody will see this the same way you do.

Leo has a lot of things to say about conformity.

I can see that on some level.

Trying to be the know it all.

The problem is you are hiding behind anonymity and making lots of statements.

You need to chill man. Lol.

This is not real relation.

I agree. This thread is just weird.

It depends on where you live somewhat. If you live in the desert you are going to crave getting near water. If you live in forest, you might get a lot out of going to the desert.
