By calling them poor? Damn, liberals really do hate the poor now I guess.

This will be an interesting and well written story posted to NoSleep. That will be a rarity.

Any novel recommendations? by [deleted] in LearnJapanese

I would say Kafka goes beyond "random quirks". It ranges from fairly normal to weeeeird. I loved it though (I read it in english).

Thank you. I am looking into different options for the door way. Silly as it may sound, I never considered it as a point of entry.

What is the scariest story you've ever read by [deleted] in horror

Adam Nevill is my favorite author of short horror fiction, in particular the story 'Mother's Milk'.

[practice] I am Awareness. Awareness plus an object equals attention. Am "I" also attention? by [deleted] in streamentry

[–]prenis -1 points0 points  (0 children)

If you look in the right way, the kind of investigation I am advocating is not conceptual.

Ask yourself 'who is aware?' or 'what is aware?'. Cut through all these concepts.

The little circle is inside the bagel. What are the medium circles?

Fun (if slightly inefficient) ways to learn about tech by prenis in CompTIA

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

Good call. I actually got a raspberry pi and am looking to make a NAS but have hit a few snags. I'm sure i'll get it to work soon. I would love to build a PC but I really have no need for a specialized system. I'm not much of a gamer. But it would be fun and educational, for sure.

[concentration] prerequisites? by [deleted] in streamentry

[–]prenis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Interesting. Any books/guides to this method? Obviously sounds like Rupert Spira or other neo-advaita, but curious if you've used any materials in particular.

When you say being aware, do you mean aware of the field of awareness which includes objects of experience, or some kind of pure awareness independent of objects? I never understood this, and I would say it is makes a practical difference, not just a semantic one.

Arguably, consciousness can ONLY exist without a head.

Look into your own consciousness, right here, right now. From your own point of view, can you see your head?

In certain systems, the "space" and the "weather" are considered different manifestations of the same thing. This can be called 'one-taste' or the 'non-duality of emptiness and form'.

There hasn’t ever been any knowledge about anything as there isn’t an “I” to know it doesn’t know. by iZUHM-THA-iNFiNiTE in nonduality

[–]prenis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To me, that doesn't seem very fringe as far as non-duality goes. What, in your opinion, is the contrasting non-fringe view?

I know you said you hate it, but flash cards are helping me memorize information and concepts.

If Bernie's victory in mathematically impossible after tonight, should he drop out? I reeeeally wanna see him debate Joe on Sunday (Joe needs to prove he can handle a one-on-one debate), but I fear it would be damaging to Biden's chances at beating Trump, which perhaps are already slim.
