@numbersinarow There is no mystery in the quote: bad and wrong are constructs for your ego.

I am not playing psuedo-profound Zen games with you guys. I say things directly and clearly.

I understand it but it's hard to accept it in its full profundity 🫠

@Leo Gura, it's often hard to interpret your words the way you intended.

You can imagine someone else having an ego and them imagining bad and wrong existing. But it's a construct/projection.


I feel oddly relieved now that this account is permanently banned. Which is completely trivial in a life-or-death situation related to that abuser. I hope I inspired someone at least subconsciously to stand up to people who would rather, trivially, automatically, destroy other people's souls than face their own inner hatred.

Spoiler: Not actually banned. Notice how the antichrist stopped posting in the time of me having this sig tho?

True, the quote can easily be interpreted as "You delude yourself into thinking nothing bad has ever happened and that everything is pure perfection because your ego is fragile."

This makes so sense. The ego is constantly judging everything as bad.

You judged 10 things as bad today. And you have done so every day of your life. And you will do it again tomorrow. Just observe yourself.

Ego IS a matrix of goods and bads.

It's oddly easy to interpret the quote that way. So judging things as bad can be a coping mechanism but the inverse can't really be?

@UnbornTao That looks surprisingly good. Like old school, smaller scale Jurassic Park rather than Michael Bay shlock.

Jurassic Park is good when it's smaller, not bigger.

I liked the original trilogy, but not so much the recent ones. What made the original one so well-received, apart from that? The rest aren't considered as good. 

The element of terror was likely an important factor.

@Leo Gura, also it's confusing when reading your reactions, especially the political ones and those kinds of realizations.

Because it had a unique premise and it had a genuine reason for being.

All the other ones had little reason for being other than to make the studio money.

There is a clear difference between things which are made for the purpose of creativity vs for the purpose of making money. If a thing is being made for the purpose of money it is already corrupt from the moment of its inception.

Although I liked the 3rd one. It is best one since the first. This new one gives me 3rd one vibes, which is why it might be worth watching. Although ScarJo seems miscast for that role.

It's like I need to write a quote, and then write an explanation of it. Like some kind of BIble/Shakespeare commentary. But this feels over-the-top. Sometimes I don't feel like over-explaining it. But it's also important that it not be misunderstood.

There is a trade-off between pithiness and clarity. Quotes sacrifice clarity for pithiness.

@Leo Gura, well, I appreciate that you consider whether over-explaining might clarify or not.

So does higher levels of equanimity, lack of bias and being free of like and dislake equate to a less dense ego?


God-Realize, this is First Business. Know that unless I live properly, this is not possible.

There is this body, I should know the requirements of my body. This is first duty. We have obligations towards others, loved ones, family, society, etc. Without material wealth we cannot do these things, for that a professional duty.

There is Mind; mind is tricky. Its higher nature should be nurtured, then Mind becomes Virtuous and Conscious. When all Duties are continuously fulfilled, then life becomes steady. In this steady life God is available; via 5-MeO-DMT, ... Living in Self-Love, Realizing I am Infinity & I am God

More like: less dense ego equates to those things.

Less ego, less gooding and badding.

Observe what role gooding and badding play in upholding the ego.

The ego is like a bird that flys on two wings: good and bad.

Honestly, one skill of yours that is never really given credit for is your ability to come up with creative and powerful analogies seemingly out of the blue.

This is the game I play everyday. For me is not about censoring myself and feeling bad about judging something as Bad, but noticing that under the judgment there is a sutble ideia that what I judge bad could somehow kill me. For example, an anyoing sound "Bad", why bad? Because is case that noise would extent for hours or days I would may wish to die. Absurd?no, there are torture methods like this. Again, Toruture! "Bad" Why? Cause it could happen to me one day and I would prefer it dont exist so I feel safe. 

Yesterday I had a dream of looking a weird grey cloud far away, but the cloud was movimg fast towards me so I noticed it was a sort of Vulcano Blast, so I run to protect myself under a House. In the moment felt like a real Threat and I could feel the blast power somehow, but I wake up and was silence in the room. A bad dream ? No, just Ego acting as it is supposed to act, a survival program trying to escape dangerous stuff to keep bodymind alive. If there are better ways to play this noticing game I would love to know.
