Here's a thought that I will finish this one day. By simply reversing the common religiously inspired additions to our thinking our mind can become symmetrical and balanced. There is no non-physical place like heaven and hell or afterlife after we die. There is no soul or spirit to protect or be saved, we're all made of the same stuff, no one is special. when the body dies it just goes to the grave, no torture, no prison, no wisdom no thought no desire, no thirst nor anything coz the neurones have stopped delivering signals. There is no god or devil, supernatural entity's without bodies, no good nor evil, theres just us, responsible for our own behaviours and the consequence to each other here on earth. There is no secret or truth to know, gained, had, or become. Seek and you most definately won't find anything more than questions, and then more answers. the mind is a creation of the physical body for the imagining of abstract possibilities or that which is not present. Our level of confusion and worry or any emotion aka anger or jealousy is due to the attachment to whats imaginated to be a factual representation of some objective truth. We only know our own neurological processes which don't extend beyond us, thus we reap like a mirror the effect of what we tell ourselves and think inside. There are no spirits, no demons, no clairvoyance, no mind reading, there isnt even real empathy, it's purely ourselves trying to act superior, knowing or more connected with the world than our default existence when really we are all limited to that which happens beneath and on our skin. To be revised and continued. This is not a fact just an alternate view by reversal of what religion tells us, interesting that it all points back to here, ourselves, and our self management

Non binary thinking has been promoted as an alternative way of thinking, personally i dont experience but my guess as to why does non binary works is this Because your not 'involved' (whatever that means) in one view at the exclusion of another. That is to say that with normal thinking, when someone sees 1 possibility as true the other/s (similar or contradictory views) are automatically and subsequentially seen to be false. If options were on a scale it would be the act of Imbalancing the scales by adding weight to one side, now they can no longer balance perfectly. With binary thinking this does not happen. There are a few possibilities as to why. 1. Maybe all ideas are mere possibility, they are all always equally imagined (neither true nor false) 2. Some say all ideas are equally true and we get ourselves caught up by judging some as false. 3. All ideas are false, its all illusion Mind seems simply the name of a function, that function being contemplation by recasting of visuals or symbols laden with attached meaning and taking a message from them, kinda like finding meaning in the bottom of a teacup. that is to say the workings behind mind are real but the end result produced, may not be of any real thing in itself but story tellings using things we consider real for greater persuasive effect.. Originally it probably only served as a guide to direct the body, at most though we use it to try to predict the world's workings based on cause and effect but now we may be tricked by our own trickery, having created the best cases to build stories we actually think the storys can be real. Or maybe its all true, possibility or false. I actually dont know yet

What Bhagwat Gita says part 2

In one of the shlokas, it says the supreme entity is neither responsible nor does it intervene on anyone doing anything, it just witness your doings and never responsible for your results. Even supreme entities follow a system that is applicable to them too.

One of the shlokas (although I don't remember exactly), says our deeds are not we should expect results from, our deeds should be to lift up the world.

Beautifuly written!

Listen, you are only guaranteed the success in which you create for yourself, 2 bad breakups later, months of pity and self doubt, and poetic geniuses like this, over time taught me one thing, FOCUS on and BELIEVE in yourself, your the only one your promised to have, till the day you die.

Philosophy

('love of wisdom' in Ancient Greek) is a systematic study of general and fundamental questions concerning topics like existence, reason, knowledge, value, mind, and language. It is a rational and critical inquiry that reflects on its own methods and assumptions.

The true meaning of "Masculinity"

The most empowering form of masculinity lies in knowing when to wield bold authority, as Aragorn does, and when to offer gentle support, like Samwise – a dynamic balance that unlocks true potential.

Choices are a funny thing. An old, familiar road feels monotonous because it limits our opportunities. A new one seems intimidating because we don't know where it will take us. Yet, a road is a road and it it remains untraveled, its mysteries will remain oblivious. Sometimes, unexpected turns lead... read more
