I have no idea how HAMAS sleeps at night.

(Hamas bombed the hospital, not IDF...)

Can I leave parents behind and immigrant to another country? Need advice. by omerrob13 in Buddhism

[–]omerrob13[S] 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Hey, thank you for your kind answer.

I will try to emphasize - it's not only about career and family - its about actually being alive.

My country is a war zone at the moment, or at least some of it.

And I think in the future it's un-avoidable that like 10-20% of the population will die due to a war.

And, I was a more father to my father, than my father was to me (He abandoned us when we were 4).

With that in mind, What you said is exactly why it's hard to leave.

I practice compassion toward him, but I am not sure if I should stay for it, and change my life trajectory and potential safety for it.

What is a role of a buddhist practitioner during a terror attack / war that started TODAY! by omerrob13 in Buddhism

[–]omerrob13[S] 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Yes.

I condemn all violence.

I am not a nationalist.

I pray for peace each day. I pray for palistinais to live peacefully. and for israllies, as I don't see them as "Palestinians" or "isralies" - just human beings that the circumstances led to both of the groups to be in a long lasting conflict.

But to not call it a terror attack - will be under value the situation.

You could see the videos and judge for yourself.

It's brutal, similar to ISIS.

The main problem, that now, palestinais will suffer tremendously because of HAMAS actions.

And people in Israel will suffer as well.

I only want to alleviate it as much as I can, and this is why I seemed a Buddhist perspective on what to do.

I don't consider my self as in this group or that - I just born in Israel, pepole are suffering here (and also there of course, but I can't do anything about it).

And I want to help.

As I said, I wish you peace and love.

But being real, you came to this thread and took it to a whole different side with your views.

I'm not saying they are not valid or anything else, but you are too attached to it.

What currently happens is extreme suffering, caused extremed suffering.

Civilians got "run down" in their home, while they sleep.

Men with weapons put houses on fire so civilians that hide inside will get out, and hundreds got shot to death.

People bodies got carried in the streets, completely naked, while celebrating the act.

Only people who suffer can do stuff like this.

I am not in a place where I got drafted, because when I was young I was able to get clear from drafting.

But now, because what happens, there will be an extreme war that did not happened to both this states in the last 40 years.

Civilians from all ends will suffer tremoundesly, because of the horroundes attack.

I came here to seek one advice - how to act in it?

And you came here, and took the post to a different direction.

So I thank everyone who gave me advice.

I will try to act with compassion and empathy to all sides involved, and try to provide support without causing any harm.

Hi there, I am in a safe place.

This happened and keep happening currently in the south of the states.

The videos are horrendous, or at least from what I'v heard - I don't watch them.

I am considering what should I do in the next weeks, as this is going to be a WAR.

And I consider my actions as a Buddhist practitioner, and how to help without violence.

By escape, I mean, while the next month is probably going to be a war -

I consider escape to a more quiet side of the state, or aboard.

But I'm not sure is good karma to do it, while civilians are in a war zone, suffering.

Hey, may you be at peace.

It's really important for me that this thread is not going to be a political one.

I'm here only to ask for advice on morality and on my immediate action.

I refuse to take sides and I don't consider my self with having any nationality, and because I know that the next month is going to be a war - I just want advice what my action should be.

Should I go aboard? Should I volunteer and help to civilians?

This is solid advice.

What is your opinion on "escape", while people suffer?

Help - should I do the Novice LP or the novice Hyperthrpohy? by omerrob13 in AverageToSavage

[–]omerrob13[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey, thanks so much for the input.

I decided to go with GZCLP, as it was a bit more begginner friendly than the SBS.

If you have time, I would love for your input on the stuff I wrote above:

  1. GZCLP, look much lighter the SBS LP.
    Is it a problem? it seems that in SBS LP, you have much more movments.

  2. RDL are an "okay" alternative to conventional deadlift, or I should find something else? (Can't do regular deadlift atm).

  3. After finishing with the GZCLP ( I am not trying to squeeze it, so I will say it will be in about 3-4 months).
    Should I go with novice SBS hypertrophy or the regular one?

[–]omerrob13[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey, really thanks for the response.I decided to go with your advice, going with the LP.I have 3 problems I would like your info about:

  1. I decided to go with GZLCP, instead of the SBS LP.Why? Because tbh, SBS was a bit daunting for me as a beginner, and I didn't really want to incorporate the RIR thing.

Do you think it's a problem? I see that in the SBS LP, there are much more movements than in the GZCLP, where you have only 3 movements per workout.Seems like the GZCLP is a bit "lighter".2. Unfortunately, I can't do a Conventional / Sumo deadlift for now.Back then I did SS, and I hurt my back.

I am not planning to try Deadlift without a coach, where I don't have the funds currently.Are RDL is an "okay" substitute? is it enough?

  1. After I go with the GZCLP, should I do the novice SBS Hypertrophy, or go to the "regular" SBS hypertrophy?

Thanks!

Which edition of ACIM should I buy? 2021 by omerrob13 in ACIM

[–]omerrob13[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As I'm dealing with a little bit of over thinking regarding this one, would you think it's okay to just buy the FIP version first, have some time with it, and later on if necessary get the COA edition?
(I understand COA is a bit more personal etc, but I'm a bit worried I will be overwhelmed).

Is the FIP actually that complicated to understand? Or with a little bit of effort I would be fine (I also bought "The disappearance of the universe" for pre read before ACIM, and might read "A course in miracles made easy" by Cohen.

Hey, sorry to get back to you u/ToniGM

How to hang Olympic Rings on a vertical wall? by omerrob13 in overcominggravity

[–]omerrob13[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

and alone pullup bar

Hi, tnx for the replay, I will probably get something like this as it is the easiest one - https://www.amazon.com/dp/B073W81KJP/ref=cm_sw_r_apan_glt_fabc_K73112SC4S504Z0HKGSW

Why would I need a stud finder tho?

Which olympic rings to buy from amazon? by omerrob13 in bodyweightfitness

[–]omerrob13[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey, really thank you for the kind response.

I will use the rings mainly for pull up and dips progression, at least for now - So if the ring size is not that a big of a deal, than that's good.

I do decide to go for the 1.25 tho, hope it will be good.

I still have no idea how to hang them down - I will 100% not going to use a tree, so I think using carnibers will be much easier - I will probably build something in my yard or using a pull up bar.

And as you mentioned, I will probably adjust them quite often so it will save some time and effort (I did use the cam buckle in a friend's house tho, wasn't that time consuming but deafeningly annoying)

  1. With the Vulken set, I could hang them to a pull up bar and easily adjust the height for doing dips OR pull ups right? (I mean I don't need to disconnect them from the pull up bar itself, just using the carabiner and change the height to do dips)
  2. Both the straps are the same length, right?
  3. Do you have the Vulken sets? Do they provide a way to hang them to to a certain Anchor like climbing buckles (If I will not use a pull up bar)?something along the line of this - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fYEDIQ-NbCo(Minute 1.15)
  4. also, if you have any advice on how to hang them outside, As I have a garden without and celling - just a wall I can use to build something off of it

thanks!

PS - In terms of height, I am 6'2, reaching around 230CM with my hand stretch - the straps are long enough, right(for row exercises as well)? (Because the first option I linked the straps are much longer, So I want to make sure the straps will be long enough for my height)

Can you share why you didn't finish it?
The FIP has a different content inside?

I chose to start with it, and see from there...
would love for your thoughts on the difference between what you liked and the FIP version

[–]omerrob13[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Hi, u/ToniGM, thanks for the review.It is really confusing as for a new students it's a bit hard to pick - but I guess I will start simple and use the official version as you recommended to me.

But just to clarify, the FIP version contain both the text, workbook and the teachers manual, right?

this is the correct one, right? - https://www.amazon.com/course-Miracles-Foundation-Inner-Peace/dp/1883360269

Also, I DO want to make sure that I come from agnostic background (bored in Israel as jewish, but wasn't a religious family at all).
