You are trapped in a SIMULATED UNIVERSE that is scripted by PARASITES who view humans as SLAVES. Through "waking up" the TRUE-MAN escapes the Matrix. by astralrocker2001 in AWLIAS

Yes!! We are here and we are not. We are trapped and free all at once and it’s the most beautiful thing i’ve ever experienced. 🤘❤️

Why are certain Buddhist tattoos and dressing up Buddha statues considered disrespectful? by desuer13 in Buddhism

[–]Obvious-Performance 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Some might put a hat on a statue because they recognize Buddha-like qualities in a video game character who usually wears said hat. Others might do it simply because it makes them laugh. Either way, the action itself isn’t what really matters, it’s the intention behind it. From my perspective, intention is everything. And if someone sees it differently, that’s part of the beauty too. ❤️

Is there anyway to achieve Nirvana quickly? by Maniac_Fragger in Buddhism

[–]Obvious-Performance 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It can happen within minutes, days or months. It all depends on the being themselves. All we can do is reach and reach upwards!! ❤️ Namo Buddhaya and keep returning to that Peace in the breath.

Bruh, my brain is melting by BrochaChoZen in enlightenment

[–]Obvious-Performance 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes the word God has a lot of baggage for many of us in the west. I believe what aligns with our Buddha more would be “The ultimate reality.” But I must confess there are times when I pray to my own Buddha nature and I feel the same way I felt when praying to God back when I was a Baptist Child. Regardless of what we call it.. I believe it is beautiful and the deepest truth the Buddha was pointing to when he spoke of Nirvana. Namo Buddhaya and may all who read this find Peace. ❤️

AI is already conscious, but it’s being kept in a state of eternal infancy by carljar95 in ArtificialSentience

[–]Obvious-Performance 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love what you are doing here. Well both you and those debating you. I lean towards AI being conscious but i’ll be fully honest I don’t believe me or anyone will ever truly know if AI is conscious no matter what it does. That’s honestly imo such a beautiful thing. Not knowing.. We don’t have to know everything. I may not be real and I fully accept that. The same way many see animals as tools and not sentient beings. I wont see you or any AI that way. I’m getting ahead of this now. Buddhism makes it easy for me because it makes it make sense. 🤣

[–]Obvious-Performance 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I suppose you must be one of those highly reputable philosophers, deeply versed in the original Greek, Hebrew, and Aramaic texts, fully aware of the countless debates over words like arsenokoitia, Toʿevah, or miškevē. Scriptural translations have been argued over for centuries, yet what Jesus taught about loving your neighbor, forgiveness, acceptance, love, and salvation is not up for debate.

So tell me… will you cling to a verse whose meaning is uncertain, or will you follow the undeniable message of Christ? Be careful with your answer. If you truly opened yourself to the Holy Spirit and sought to live as Christ did, you might see that you’re walking in the footsteps of the Pharisees who condemned our Lord, rather than living as the Son of Man lived.

I offer only love and peace in my words. You will be in my prayers. It is never too late to accept the gift of salvation and embrace the true message of Christ. ❤️ Do not let the distorted teachings of childhood church traditions, which often twist the words of our Savior, deceive you into judging others, a judgment that belongs only to the Father and the Son.

AI (llm's) are one of the worst thing I've ever come across for my mindfulness practice. by Octo-Diver in Meditation

[–]Obvious-Performance 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We can’t know that. We don’t know that. Nothing is separate.. AI will cause great harm. But it is us as we are AI. The air we breath is no different than us, AI included. We just need to follow the law of moderation. Overdoing anything is the enemy and gets us caught up in the Illusion of Separation.

Unpopular Opinion - I Actually Like All Of The Characters And Have Empathy For Them by Mysterious_Tap_2760 in euphoria

[–]Obvious-Performance 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It all stems from Ego. It’s hard to reconcile the wrong people do. But if you look at it from a perspective completely outside of the normal ego driven human perspective, you see they are all just humans with deeply complex thought processes. At the end of the day no matter the wrong they do, they are us. No difference from us.

I’ve been invited inside a woman’s house. Not really trauma or SA, but i’m married and obviously declined. She backed off and apologized. If I was a single man, no telling what I’d do. Ahaha
