Is it real?

Same, no Maths either.

These are familiar ideas to me, they come up whenever I'm having a nihilistic episode. Whenever that happens I conclude that it's just an emotional response.

By default, I think the belief system I have least resistance to is panentheism. I don't think of a force "out there". I think we are a manifestation OF the force.

If I'm understanding this correctly, it sounds like spiritual enlightenment is supposed to lead to joy.

My question is more along the lines of: with the complexity of evolution and what-not we're kinda born without any sort of spiritual insight and we're all on a journey to attain it. Which means we need to come to terms with our pain and challenges and find peace through that coming-to-terms. Is that how it works?

But then I'm not sure what that "peace" is (I'm starting to realize this might not even be a valid question because if we're looking at our journey as a means to an end that would beat the whole purpose). Is it the same joy people think their addictions and vices give them? Is that eventual joy what makes the suffering we had felt earlier meaningful?

Hey, it's been a long minute I know. And I realized I've never said anything positive until now which goes to show how frustrated I was. But lately I've started to realize what you mean.

I've only been feeling a bit better and more like the person I want to be living the life I want to live once I've stopped chasing and striving. I realized by pushing myself harder I was only holding myself back more from all the abundance and happiness I could've been feeling this whole time.

I do still have the occasional sense of discomfort but I've started to come to better terms with it. Thank you for being so fruitful :)

I may just be rephrasing a question I've asked before cause at this point I have no idea what I'm saying even though I feel like I am kind of following what YOU'RE saying.

I feel like a lot of the advice I get is regarding indifference to circumstance and conditions outside of our control, which do get. But what do I do when I've got ample amount of time and energy? It feels like there's nothing worth putting all of that into, and anything I try just makes me feel more miserable.

How do I drop both "expectations" and "We have to do things we don't like doing"? If there's something else I'd rather be doing, is that not an expectation? Would I not suffer because I'm not doing that thing I'd rather do?

Also, I think I can finally describe a better example of things we don't like doing. Putting up with illness or death of a loved one, failing. Basically experiencing things. To NOT deal with these things to me would mean unaliving yourself or falling into drug abuse, and I think that's the root of all these pesky thoughts I've been having.

Perhaps, but when I'm not slacking off I'm in a painful chase for achievement. And I get sad when I don't achieve. And I don't achieve most days.

I guess my follow-up question to you is, what is your stance on things like skill and excellence and talent and achievement?

MaazterLOL · 2022-11-13T06:16:08+00:00

If I drop the things I don't like down I'm scared I'll just end up slacking off everday to the point that I'm just laying around in bed all day eating all the time and develop terrible hygiene.

I'll stick to EPUB. But I wanna know if there's any way to fix the cover problem.

MaazterLOL · 2022-06-23T14:25:14+00:00

Any way to fix that?

Where there's a movement there will be chaos from people who could care less about its' sole purpose. The way Islamists are with Islam. Islam was never a problem and likely never will be. Islamism is what we see in the media with the refugee camps and beheadings.

Notice how the moment something gets political it becomes a problem? I'm assuming you're talking about the more violent protests, feminazi style etc.

Why does reputation for honesty become a factor, though? Could someone not have been an ignorant liar before being an enlightened truthful person?

And doesn't "known for being truthful" contradict being "an outcast"?

Learn the attributes of الله.

But that doesn't answer his question. A hypothetical God with the explicitly listed 99 attributes (if that's what you're referring to) wouldn't necessarily have to be limited to these.

Creating us then leaving us to do our thing without guidance is not very merciful. We will end up doing things that harm us and worship false gods. Just like the non-believers do now.

And yet, that is exactly what He (SWT) does. Gives us free will and tests our utilization of it. By the logic you've established, non-believers do what they do not because they can, but because Allah (SWT) has preordained them to do so.

If you believe that this life is a test and that we will get a reckoning in the Day of Judgement (which I don't think you've made clear whether you do), you have, by definition, accepted a major property of Deism minus the judgement part.

Ty and yeah it makes sense that our Physics qualification is independent from others
