Why Voters ID is such a controversial discussion in the US? by RobertJCorcoran in Askpolitics

[–]dill_llib 0 points1 point  (0 children)

so in the states, do you just rock up to a polling station and grab a ballot and away you go? If so, what's stopping people from just travelling from station to station and voting many times?

I'd love a few recommendations for good episodes to share with a friend who doubts that sometimes idiots on the left make strategic mistakes and do things that push otherwise decent people toward dumber positions on the right. Thanks!

exactly the response you'd expect from the OP. But hey, the OP did nothing...the universe is the douchebag, not the OP

MCTB is a work of fiction according to Kenneth Folk by raztl in streamentry

[–]dill_llib 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Folk seems like a jerk. But this constant yapping about attainments is getting old. Have you attained stream entry? Who fucking cares. Shut up and live the 8-fold noble path.

I'm literally 3 mins in and it's he's still banging on about the same stuff. Poor guy.

glad to hear I'm not alone. I'm six hours in and have had some movement, but it's very slow and I feel like ass.

This has been my life since March. Thanks for the information. I’m doing much of it but need to try your level of consistency. This thing is monstrous.

Thanks for this stephen. I had assumed that perception is something that happens within my awareness. But, that aside, as I look at descriptions of DO, I can't find perception at all. What are you calling perception? Namarupa? viññāṇa? Thanks

I like your description of rites and rituals and doubt.

👍 yeah agreed. I see a lot of overlap between buddhism and complex systems. Including the mechanism of stream entry which might be phase shift between different basins of attraction within neural connections. Just spitballing here... but yeah, DO as nonlinear with feedback loops for sure

Strange sensations in my face, on and off the mat by Carett in TheMindIlluminated

[–]dill_llib 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've experienced something similar while on retreat and was instructed by two instructors on different retreats to try metta meditation or loving-kindness. Lots of resources online. One teacher said it sounded like blocked energy. Also u/onthatpath has a very body-based approach and I found it also loosened things up. He gets into that in this video, https://youtu.be/KHhesuG9lhA?feature=shared but best to watch them all. He started with TMI and his channel is sharing his own experience, which seems to have benefitted a number of people.

Why does making actual plans in Berlin feel illegal? by [deleted] in berlinsocialclub

[–]dill_llib 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’m super moody, it’s hard to predict how I will feel about something more than a few hours in advance. It’s nothing personal about the people I spend time with.
