Posted January 8, 2023 (edited) If other people are just a projection of my mind, does that mean that they know my inner thoughts? And by "know" I mean to behave as if they are aware of them so I get the impression that they can somehow "read" my mind.

Posted January 9, 2023 Some people can easily perceive thoughts of others. It's a just a matter of how much your perception is expanded. In Indian tradition they call it "Siddhis". Nothing special at the end... it's just activating that part of your energetic system that are usually dormant or asleep. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted January 9, 2023 Yeah, it's nothing special. If you really investigate it, these people who'd "know your inner thoughts" couldn't do anything with the information anyways because the energy is basically cheese-grated to a level of pointlessness. It's not outrageous or controversial really. Take it this way. Some people masturbate about their coworkers. Do you think your coworkers would know it outright? Or do you just think the residual effect of the situation at home plays out at work regardless? It wouldn't matter. Even if the world knows what you're up to at home, the world never made it important for them to care. You are the world making things important bruv. But then again, stroking it on the late late to your coworkers might worsen your confidence around them, because of idolization, coveting, etc. That kind of mental effort carries subconscious weight. How could it not? Is hiding something innocuously the same as never hiding anything innocently? Never... "Holy fuck. Holy fucking fuck.

And by "know" I mean to behave as if they are aware of them so I get the impression that they can somehow "read" my mind. The degree to which most humans can do this on the level you're thinking of is negligible. Human entities around you often have intuitions about what you're thinking, but most of the time they find ways to convince themselves that they aren't doing telepathy or anything paranormal. Typically, men suffer from this even Moreso than women. If you want a simple way to start to stop doing this kind of thing yourself, a good thing to bear in mind is situations where you start thinking something that's totally unrelated to anything you were previously thinking about, and that doesn't make any sense to you that you'd think it. When this sort of thing occurs and you're in the presence of another person, it's often because that stream of thoughts was cued by a telepathic impression from the other human. When you realize that it only makes sense that what you're thinking is actually what the other person is thinking and not having originated in your own mind, then you're almost certainly right. If you want a way to totally read a person's mind straight up like you'd imagine Star Trek Vulcans could do. You're probably best ingesting some harmala alkaloids (obviously you'll want to follow a MAOI avoidant diet at least 48 hours prior and after) and then attempting to do so. There are other methods that work, but this one doesn't require any discipline and minimal prior study, which probably can't be said of the Sadhanas, and Tantric implements designed for telepathy you can read about.

The statement as it stands by itself, provides partial knowing. For a more complete ability to internalize the subject, let me explain the process which led the modern philosopher to his comprehension. The realization in the statement: "I think, therefore I am" is a self-reinforcing truth, granted, but Descartes's philosophy was that of skepticism. Then he asked himself, "Can I doubt that I doubt?" The concept of doubt was, in Descartes's view, equivalent to thought. In other words he said to himself: "Can I doubt that I think?" "No," he answered. "How could I? I just thought up 2 questions: 1) Can I doubt that I doubt? 2) Can I doubt that I think?" At this moment, Rene Descartes had an epiphany. Eureka experience. An understanding of truth on the highest order, if only for a moment. He continued his research in the field of philosophy and had some more of these moments of truth. He deduced that such a moment is a criterion for discovering inner confirmations of reality. Or, for an awakening, in the 21st century. That moment is a total and absolute clarity. I mean, for real. The entire structure of the universe is unfolding before tour eyes. 1 hour ago, Tyler Durden said: Shouldn't everyone know because we're all interconnected? We are interconnected but to accurately pinpoint the exact thought at the exact time a certain person is thinking it, you're consciousness has to be of supreme quality.

Posted June 13, 2023 Your Imagination are like layers of layers of seperation like lasagna. At some points in the lasagna nobody can read your thoughts, when you eat the whole thing (no seperation), there is no such things as "someone else" reading your thoughts, but you can manuver between those layers and make telepathy happen for example, but you really need an exceptional level of attention to the lasagna and thus concentration, which maybe isn't really useful for you, but you can do various things with the lasagna.
