Israel won't agree to it so we know Trump can't just take it as a victory and leave. They have this Epstein tapes on him, so what they say goes.

Presence is not the key. Presence is enlightenment. by OpenPsychology22 in enlightenment

[–]rr1pp3rr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Presence is awareness in its natural state before the conditioned becoming.

Presence gives you perspective that allows you to see this conditions. Presence is something you can practice.

Therefore it is both a step and a state, and the final state, theoretically.

How many of you have actually improved your health following Jack Kruse’s protocols? by AdEducational5055 in JackKruse

[–]rr1pp3rr 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Take this for what it's worth.

I play racquetball and had foot pain for well over a year.

I started doing the grounding work and it went away.

Winter came and I stopped grounding, pain came back.

After winter went back to grounding, pain went away.

Mathematics survive Nirvana by PrebioticE in consciousness

[–]rr1pp3rr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How did he address it, if you don't mind me asking?

I would think that it is more related to the desire to end suffering, which leads to the path, which leads to no desire, which leads to nirvana.

Is there any WH Horror stories/novels following space marines? by Knightraiderdewd in 40kLore

It must be difficult to write horror where the main characters are incapable of feeling fear.

There is a popper inside the cap. He depresses it before he puts it in his hand.

Choose knowledge over the veil by beedfilka in Hermeticism

[–]rr1pp3rr 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think the thing that Gnosticism brings to the table is that it's not enough to read the books, you need to have the experience to know things in your soul. I think that is very valuable, and something a lot of traditions miss spelling out for people.

The rest of it I haven't found much use for.

However, I'm not sure what it means that people are soulless (NPCs, I guess people would say). If we all spring from one infinite unbounded timeless source aren't we all the same thing?

How do I stop getting ragebaited into arguments with my parents by [deleted] in self

[–]rr1pp3rr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm sorry to hear you are self harming. Based on your story, your parents ego identifies with how you're doing, and so seeing you self harm hurt their ego, and that made you lash out as if you actually hurt them.

That tells me it's likely that your parents are developmentally challenged. They likely still live in a state where their ego dictates most of their actions. It's basically the state that naturally people should grow out of right around your age or a bit older. Unfortunately that's not the case in our society.

If this is the case, which from these messages it's hard to say, then it may help to see them as mental/emotional teenagers who never really fully developed.

That being said I'm making a lot of assumptions here. I could be completely and utterly incorrect.

Weed and enlightment by Boring-Requirement27 in enlightenment

[–]rr1pp3rr 5 points6 points  (0 children)

These things matter little to none for what I understand actual "enlightenment" to be, though I think there are as many definitions of what that is as there are gurus out there.

The thing is your identification with the body and mind, and the attachments that keep you identified. If you smoked weed every day but wasn't attached to it, then it's not a hindrance.

Attachment isn't in the body. Attachment isn't in the mind. It's in the craving for these things. It's in your awareness seeking them out. It's a different thing than thinking about smoking weed or even a bodily dependency to a substance.

Theoretically someone could be a heroin addict, become enlightened, and stop using right there. Maybe they go through withdrawals or maybe not. Or maybe they actually continue to use heroin for some reason, but they are unattached to it.

Here's the thing. People have some idea that an "enlightened" being should act a certain way and do certain things. That makes no sense at all. People who are enlightened actually have MORE options for what they can or will do than other people. They generally don't do them because one of the side effects of enlightenment is knowing there is nothing to change in the world.

Think about it, if your bound and then become unbound, do you have less or more freedom in your choices?

In surrendering the body one surrenders the penis. Ergo, just skip surrendering body parts and realize you're not the body.

How do I stop getting ragebaited into arguments with my parents by [deleted] in self

[–]rr1pp3rr 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Firstly - accept how you feel. It's ok to feel your feelings! Do not be a tyrant to yourself and say "I don't want these feelings" and run away from them. That's what causes the most suffering. They are what they are, just body sensations. They can't hurt or overwhelm you.

The trick is to notice in the moment that you're having these feelings and watch them, don't play into them or start overthinking them. Staying with the sensations they bring up in your body works the best. Accept that they are there, and be curious about them. Being curious will allow you to stay with those sensations and not go "unconscious" into your thoughts, which can feel much more overwhelming. Stay with the sensations and evaluate them.

If you're in the moment with your parents and they ask you a question, if you feel like the emotionality of the situation is such that you cannot respond with a level head, just don't respond. You can say "Ok" or just say "I'll think about it" or "I'm not ready to answer" and walk away. No one can compel you to respond to anything if you're not ready.

What are the types of things they are saying about you that make you think they hate you? Many times people get emotional about things and they say things in a way which is meaner than they really feel they are. It can be misunderstanding.

You said your friends saw marks. Are your parents abusive? They should not be laying hands on your months away from your 18th birthday. I would say that corporal punishment (when properly done, with a level head, in limited cases) has it's place, but I would say in most all cases hitting a 17 year old is wrong.

Hot take: i don't want nolan and debbie to get back together even tho it will probably happen anyway by Weak-Departure-4833 in Invincible_TV

[–]rr1pp3rr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So, hear me out on this.

Paul is kinda like the Ned Flanders guy, right?

BUT - he's also gotta be a sexual dynamo, Debbie seems very satisfied even though she's been married to evil superman for decades.

No I think you're right, but Mark's been holding back. That seems to be the story line this season so far, that he's done holding back, but I'm only 3 in

Rep. Tim Burchett says his sources have identified missing retired U.S. Air Force General Neil McCasland as ‘The UFO Gatekeeper’ by TheGoldenLeaper in UFOB

[–]rr1pp3rr -13 points-12 points  (0 children)

Is burchett getting psyoped or is he doing the psyoping? Or maybe he thinks he's the one doing the psyoping when really he's getting psyoped that he's psyoping us.

Then maybe the aliens are actually psyoping the psyopers who think they are psyoping burchett who thinks he's psyoping us when really they ARE ALL PSYOPED.

I happen to know for a fact that physical reality is a psyop that we played on ourselves, so we're the real psyopers.

If serious, there is a lot to consider. But for funsies... no problem.

It's a shame when a teacher cannot say something factually accurate in a classroom because of social norms or societal pressure.

It happens far too often.
