See how easy I triggered you? There goes your wannabe sophisticated spirituality. So cringe. I'm just doing a speed run any % to get banned/deleted from this place as fast as possible since Nahm would certainly ignore any such request. Just like Leo would, cause they're all about building up that cult and make sure people are spinning in circles in here for as long as possible

Cry

Don't seek advice from this forum. They're all cringe. You as well though

The thread itself is cringe

@Isagi Yoichi Gigacringe mate. I guess it's time for you to get banned

Cringe

No, right now you are Rose. So just live out the rest of your life to the best of your ability and enjoy it. Do good for yourself and for others in equal measure, try to minimize your suffering and suffering of others. Contribute to society in some way.

What I meant to convey by that is that, your very core personality and thus all the subtle or not so subtle behaviours stemming from those characteristics will never really change, to put it into some analogy, you can just sort of mold the shape of the tree top, make it look prettier or less messy, make the branches/twigs look different etc. but you can never really replace the tree trunk, or the roots, those stay the same. Similiarly, there are certain characteristics and patterns of behaviour about you that are unchangeable and you also don't really want to change them because they make you, well, you. Even in your case on this forum, we can probably observe certain patterns of your behaviour that didn't change and remained consistent despite you changing some beliefs and perspectives. The reason this core doesn't change is because of unique mix of biology/genetics, enviromental and social factors that were set at your birth/early childhood. These are a certain set of rigid rules similiar to gravity, being imagined in this particuliar reality, making certain people predisposed towards certain behaviours for their entire life

For the same reasons you are okay with staying the way you are

I get it man. It feels good to give. It always felt good for me as well

Yeah, that's one way to look at it I guess

I agree it feels good, if only there was a way to ensure they won't buy any bullshit with those 50 bucks, but stuff that's actually good for them. It would then feel much better Here's an argument for the other side of the coin; by being more selfish and making more money for yourself and keeping that money and property for yourself, you have a lot more to give to other people, you also have a lot more money that a potentially fictional, well functioning and ethically/morally consistent goverment could tax, and such fictional goverment would be a lot more capable than you are in dealing with homelesness. Effective resource allocation. Therefore, maybe those 50 bucks would be better spent by such goverment than giving it to Bob who's gonna spend it on bunch of beers and a pack of smokes to cope with his life

Althought it is the final stage, it is unlimited in it's size, you can become more and more conscious of your inferior inteligence compared to that of Leo's, forever, it's sort of like an infinite regressive loop/maze, but it also works in reverse, the deeper you go the more aware you become of how smart and inteligent Leo really is. I'm afraid this level you've just described is still reserved for rookies, there's still more to go.

@Phil Wherever you happen to be in life, however tough or hopeless your situation may seem to be, there is always one last light at the end of the tunnel, one important realization - that you are less inteligent than Leo. This is the final, ultimate awakening one needs to achieve and also the greatest insight one can realize. We are nothing but a mere pupils, and we better remember where our place is

You're just taking yourself way too seriously, chill out, nothing happened, you're overreacting.

Yeah, the so called happiest country on Earth but only statistically on paper, the low population size and very low density relative to the country's size and cold depressing weather coupled together makes individual cases like these more likely to happen, it's not so surprising There was another case like that of an isolated guy who was even a nazi symphatizer But I think kids who commit crimes, especially severe crimes like these should be going to a jail-like institutions for minors for example, there's just no excuse for killing someone, it wouldn't even occur to a normal kid to shoot at someone never mind killing them, there has to be something seriously wrong with you if you do that no matter what your age is

Maybe once in a while, but not daily. Seems like a waste of time in my opinion, but if he enjoyes it and he has the time then by all means. But some relatively short daily jogging would be enough I guess you already know this is your main problem. You need to sleep ideally like 2x that ammount.

Pure white sugar is also a naturally occuring substance just like anything else, it's extracted from the sugar beets (or cane in case of a brown variety), it's basically just a very energy rich/dense form of carbohydrates (because it's a 100% pure carbohydrate) and that's exactly its number one problem as well from the health standpoint, long term unhealthy consumption will cause various metabolic well known disruptions in your body such as insulin resistance, heart problems and the list goes on. Yes they can be, you'd just have to consume a much larger ammounts for the negative effects to manifest Probably because that's how you conditioned your body by making it a habit, just like with anything else, if you'll quit it and replace it with sonething healthier your body will protest for a while but it'll get used to it And you can't really quit sugar, as in quiting carbs, because they are necessary for your health, just pick healthier varieties and ammounts, moderation just like with anything else

Yes they would be. The effects of psychadelics and every single one of the points you've made do have scientific explanation within a materialistic paradigm, you can search them for yourself, they are just reductionist in their nature. But in a way, so are yours. One thing all paradigms can agree on though is this - there is such a thing as infinity. In fact, there is no way there couldn't be. But what kind of infinity? I don't think anyone can ever confidently know the answer to this question. Direct experience may be the king, but that doesn't mean it is infallible in my opinion.

@Phil I understand your point of view and what spirituality is about, but I think that night dream analogy falls flat, due to the fact that you don't actually fully control what you dream about even while lucid dreaming, the same way you can only control the human you are in real life. The only way you can attract wealth is throught persuading other people to give it to you, even if these people were all dreamt up alongside the rest of everything, this would still not change

This makes sense and it's understandable

I don't understand the alternative to what I or @Joseph Maynor are claiming, like do you think you'll just sit on the chair, write a bunch of stuff on some board or imagine you already have it, and it's just going to come to you on it's own without you putting in any deliberate effort at all?

I think it is primarily determined by the level of ones ambition and also luck. These two. Some people are just naturally ambitious and just make the necessary sacrifices in order to suceed, they are just out there learning stuff and actually doing shit. While others are just naturally less ambitious, like a lot of people on this forum for example. With high ambition you'll get the motivation, industriousness and everything else, and you'll be unhappy if you won't strive towards something And luck is also a necessary part, I don't care what anyone says but in life you're born in a certain position within society with certain predetermined characteristics and circumstances which you have no control over, also your control of life in general is limited.

@Joseph Maynor So what you're saying is that he realized the truth?😀 @Someone here

The way this guy is eating, he's not going to live for very long
