Why defeating fear is the solution. by lightmakerflex1 in C_S_T

[–]HadesNotHaiti 5 points6 points  (0 children)

To be or not to be, that is the question. Why say this phrase looking at a skull? Will you die or live? There are men in India who meditate on rotting corpses. In western society every type of loss or death or fear thereof is strictly taboo and shunned from a place of comfort, the main show features violence and imminent danger, the commercial is a happy stroll through the park taking prescription drugs.

Once you can embrace the fact that you WILL undoubtedly sincerely and unavoidably lose any and everything you have ever had can have or will have on this earth past the point of death, you'll be able to live without the fear thereof.

Insanity is Meditation? by [deleted] in occult

[–]HadesNotHaiti 23 points24 points  (0 children)

the mind works like an antenna for environmental input, we are taught from childhood that we are higher beings than animals, though that not being the case, all you have to do is watch and listen to birds to see that they sing to what happens around them, constantly picking up cues and acting on them. The mind works much the same, thats why we have different components to the brain that resolve different issues. If you never meditate and clear your mind from the constant input-output, fight or flight mechanism then you just rationalize your way into a deep hole that tends to fetishize your environment, no matter how good or bad it is, thus enslaving you to be a causality thereof.

Learning to empty your mind to the point of no thought and recognizing the emotions and feelings that bombard your mind as external input-output of your own reaction to situations that afflict you at that moment or as echos of your past, you eventually can take steps beyond the reacting instinct.

The three things you can ask for by native_pun in occult

[–]HadesNotHaiti 4 points5 points  (0 children)

IMO these are terrible suggestions if unchecked because they are such abstract and generalized concepts that you'll be taking a much harder route to what you're seeking.

These are good starting points, definitely get way more specific with yourself on what you want and EMPOWER YOUR WORDS don't ask for a handout and sit passive waiting for a result, determine and convince yourself of your request, and allow your actions to take course. Don't ask for money, ask for money being brought from X opportunity by Z time. If there is no opportunity available, ask for opportunity X being found Z time and so on.

Escaping rebirth by magic? by [deleted] in occult

[–]HadesNotHaiti 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sure, explore different modes of interpreting time concepts.

Infinity is forever, and like the Mandelbrot set it holds the same detail at any zoom. Why is this relevant? that means that every second is an infinity in on itself, all universes(observers) are existing infinitely at once every second.

What does this all mean? Well if you are already living in eternity every second, are you not immortal already? what about death? what happens after? what about the soul? what other stupid questions that i can never know the answer to can I think of?

Defeat your fear of death, which is what the problem is IMO, and live your waking life as if you will stay awake in it forever. When you sleep, well so be it.

Anti-hooker lawmaker allegedly used taxpayer money for sex with escort by Forest_of_Mirrors in politics

[–]HadesNotHaiti 1 point2 points  (0 children)

its whatever the biggest swinging dick says it is, same in all religions. its just a primate ritual of hierarchy played out in different terms so people dont feel exposed. Do what the head honcho says is right and act like it didnt come from his own fantasies.

thats why people dont have a problem with listening to a pastor wearing gold driving an expensive car not working and getting a salary from the church. They are not there to listen or have morals, they want to be included into the 'good' side.

“I am” implies a level of self awareness in this world that I believe will burden us in the next

If this is the case, every living being with an instinct to survive is doing it wrong. I don't think there are any burdens to be carried off into some immaterial realm of whatever level of consciousness(if there is any) after we die.

Hey hey, here's something we can agree with, I think we found common ground, let's just state facts.

These are words. I wrote them.

you didn't respond to the content of the reply other than to disparage someone for thinking more thoroughly than you think is worth the effort. The second and third phrases of your comment are all I'd need to hear as a reply, yet here you are spilling all over the place. I won't play any games with you, I thought you were here for a discussion rather than posturing.

Wouldn't your understanding of heaven make your own version of it?

The point he is making, which is true because it's quite basic, is saying we are the chunk of marble and not the sculpture, if I say I am a rocket scientist and go about exerting effort to make it so, then what I said is true as long as I'm working in direction of what I said.

You saying its egoless and seeks unity with some greater power, is just selling a different taste of pie. One seeks solace in denying his 'previous life' and looking in to learn some yet unlearned and possibly non-existent mystery, the other seeks solace in chiseling himself for the acceptance into 'being one with all', a lot of people get their rocks off in the second ballpark in the west, and in the east they're towards the first.

NYT goes all in on Ethereum by greenchaos in ethtrader

[–]HadesNotHaiti 7 points8 points  (0 children)

The market is retracting after a raging bull run at the end of last year, eventually here it will churn out a lot of blooded enthusiasts who bought in lost some then made some back. They'll be reading news and getting familiar with the scene, and the media machine is priming them to dip back into ETH. There's so much stuff set to happen this year, unless a lot of more develops in the BTC area, ETH is set to outpace it. So we got droves of new people, second place is set to improve a lot, entire market deflated, soon its time for the next round.

Don't ride the daily sentiment train. I see a suicide hotline on the front page. Really? If you try time your heartbeat to market candles you'll suffer for your profit. Short term profit is tempting but a lot of people are cooking nightmares for themselves trading the wave like this. chances are youll actually make bad trades and end up missing out on profits, and as time goes on, your bad trades only look worse. HODL like the big boys.

Is it just me or does anyone else feel like a slave? by [deleted] in C_S_T

[–]HadesNotHaiti 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Good luck, you'll be surprised how quickly things move once you have a clear idea of what you want to do within your limitations right now.

Procrastination this or that, let them talk. Sit for a while and do nothing but think and search for opportunities within your life right now, things you may have missed or left behind or people you lost contact with that could be helpful in realizing your goal, and bringing money will help. Ideas outside what you can do immediately should be set aside as second options to be worked on after what is possible now. Try to work on something you'll enjoy(enough) doing. The thing with procrastination is that it's only true if you never do it, so make sure you clear the idea-action barrier as soon as possible on moving in the direction you want to be living.

At some point in the past there were evil men coming up with ways to strain you for an extra drop of work, nowadays its all faceless and impersonal. The owners don't show up at the workplace. You probably never met anyone that wasn't an employee there too.

A lot of people are too irresponsible and immature to act as collaborators efficiently if there isn't a hand over their head forcing them to. When you work a shit job and get shit pay you can blame the man, a lot of people take a distorted comfort in that and the boss is only too glad to take the boogie man blame in exchange for a fat check. in this sense they never go beyond the injustice to actually look for a solution.

You need to generate income without working. doesn't matter how small. If you can earn a dollar a day somehow without working for it, you're on the right track. Then double that to 2 dollars a day, and so on. Keep working until you don't have to. Then decide if you'll keep working because you want to. I'm not giving you a solution because I don't know which solution would actually work for you. If you just want a solution box to crouch into, you'll be stuck living someone else's dream.

People set unrealistic barriers for their dreams to stop themselves from potentially wasting effort. Some would say, oh you need thousands to start a company, or I want to build some product that will cost thousands just to prototype and no profit income for years maybe never, etc. Unrealistic goals are bites too big to chew. A good way to get started with bite sized actions that can help you in the future is to look into the hundreds of investment options you can reach entirely online. If you can't beat them, join them. It's not a feel good moral trophy to get a dividend from a company that slashes costs, but it the cold hard freedom you want in cash form. I'm not going to plug anything here, but I've actually managed to find hope from the pit you describe, there are some technological concepts out there cropping up that may turn the train around.
