To be spiritual, and to become the definition of spirituality, you have to reject the material world. Not just through fasting. You actually, literally have to start getting rid of your shit. We do not get possessed by demons, we are possessed by our own possessions.
Your mind keeps track of every single penny you have. Every single thing you say and do. Everything you own. And how much you value it.
we have what we need(tool wise), the only things of value are not available on the market. Going back to the afterlife video library, you can't buy a video of Mozart without putting in the effort.
Yeah but I'll have to bring up last nights argument again on ideology. These are all ideas, and ideas aren't inherently bad, you can't say you have NO IDEA what truth or reason is. You need an idea, and serving an idea you know to be good is not the same as being deceptively enslaved by an idea that's bad.
hmm, serving an idea is a really interesting point
have you guys read Crichton's critique on environmentalism?
When you start letting go of the material world - by eating less and doing less - your mind will start waking up.
I fast two to four days a week.
Why not just fast intermittently, you still get into ketosis that way and it's much more reasonable since it offers more consistency, as opposed to the chaotic interruptions you cause your body with the heavy start and stop
There is a scientifically-provable entirely physiological process that starts when you start fasting.
Imagine the human mind is like a giant one million port Gigabit Network Switch.
Every cent you have have takes up a port.
Every single thing you own is plugged in.
Even your next planned holiday is taking up a few ports already.
I agree with you @Deejay from Earth but I also like the idea I read in The Eternities - Vedanta Treatise (A.Parthasarathy) - basically that there is a certain hygeine required for science, so we see scientists in clean laboratories practicing science, similarly sages need to undergo a cleaning process, but regular people can use the lessons learned by scientists in labs that they never see - in fact it is natural. He says that spiritual lessons are also for the non sages to use, even though they might only be discovered by sages
My battery is almost kaput, still haven't all agreed on how we define what's reasonable. Rob you are on board with the golden rule yeah? And what about you Deejay?
What I'm trying to say is, when you start unplugging from the material world, and if you fast diligently, you start going to the kingdom of God.
In my view, the Kingdom of God is the same place as the spiritual place where we get our answers from.
going to copy the text if you guys don't mind, could find it easily online, the Crichton critique on environment, I think that all true religion fills the space within all humans with a personal god, and I believe that all of the SJW/neomarxists/ideologists try to fill the exact same spot with ideology
Agreed with that too on the spiritual realm. As above, so below, as within, so without. Inside and all around us, omniscient and omnipotent
It's very real. Jesus did it. Lao Tzu did it. I think Bruce Lee as well - that physique is because of fasting as well. Zen and Jesus is the same thing
@Deejay from Earth I think the was we are evolving, eventually we will all have the choice to seek enlightenment and plug into the spirtual internet much like we have the ability to learn science and 3d print devices/build software/CRISPr
It's a higher state of consciousness. And the Kingdom of God really does live inside of us.
coming back to the critique on environmentalism, I think that the Neomarxists are trying to block our connection to the kingdom within, by putting an ideology in its place
It's being blocked yes absolutely.
Ditsem! @Deejay from Earth, you just advanced to level 8!
By keeping us busy, unhealthy and poor.
That's why they have to teach us a load of shit in school.
Yes, actually funny, I saw some videos on that with Putin comparing communism with Christianity, trying to mimic it in a reversed way.
Like I said yesterday, you don't teach your slaves how to make guns. You make them as stupid as humanly possible.
communism is a highly sophisticated spiritual warfare weapon
Indeed it is yeah, agreed.
That is why I think that if we are going to get out of this shithole we dug for ourselves, we need to fix the people before we can even start thinking about new ideologies.
I think we need to reach people on the spiritual level
I've seen intelligent friends brainwashed, it's sad
but the spiritual needs to be shown to people in ways that they can understand
We all need to start fasting, and awaken to our true nature.
