I always tell people in relationships "Don't cage the bird". No bird flies with you while in said cage.

Are you available to talk? I could use some advice.

Jeez could you have let him finish that sentence at the end

[@markjonz]

You’re not going to improve the world and you’re not going improve yourself. The one who needs improving is the one who is going to be doing the improving.

[@Ucho469]

​@@markjonzI liked the sentence but I disagree. My life is been one of constant improvements and drawbacks. But always getting better. And I am grateful for the work and sacrifice I had to put in to achieve that.

@@Ucho469 you are misunderstanding the quote, remember the point with which the video starts. You are adhering to the ego that improves and you are adherin to the idea that the world has to improve. This perspective is ultimatly a set back. in a way you are being possesive about your process, but in last instance you will still have to let that go. In a fraction you feel the world might be better in another the world might be worse, in another life you might see things decay or maybe rise up. It's all conceptual. And while yes, you can work towards making your life better, you will always hit moments that will continuously make you question the validity of that claim. He is simply talking from a non-dual perspective

Ram Dass has a story about feeding Neem Karoli Baba LSD, which had no effect on him.

[@blueresonantmonkey3188]

It is true

[@ud0ntevenkn0wme]

It had an effect, he said it was "nothing special", meaning he felt the same before, in meditation.

Or it wasn't good LSD

Not only that. If you care about happiness, get a partner. Because strangers will not treat you better.

Yeah just let Chad and Tyrone have their way with your woman while you pay for everything. Great plan. So enlightened.

If she'd rather be sleeping with Chad and Tyrone she never was your Woman. Not that possessing "your Woman" has much to do with the content of this lecture

Watts is for the weak minded. Just another guru in persuit of fame and pleasure. So many mentions of the word spiritual but only caring about the material.

[@WhiteZilla117]

You need to do more trades and listening to his lectures

[@lndr-ie4ge]

@@WhiteZilla117 I did listen him a lot in the past, that's why I now know he's just another money/women lover guru

[@visartistry]

@@lndr-ie4gei too dont believe in modern gurus like that. As soon as fame and money hits, a person is gone, the hardest drug of them all… But i still wonder what makes you say that. Has he done anything? Some stuff he says make sense and its good to think about. But we’re flawed for looking for people of all truths, people we can believe for everything they have to say and be. There is no such saint. Take something from what they give, and refuse when you had enough

Jesus Christ loves you! He died for our sins! Please believe! Please repent!

[@gabefarris7005]

What does it even mean that Jesus died for our sins? Why couldn’t God just forgive us? Why did it need a blood sacrifice? I know the answers to these but just food for thought

[@Abdiel_BZ]

@@gabefarris7005 God acts as both a loving Father and a king. We owe a debt for our sins. Jesus, as God in the flesh, pays the debt, as an act of mercy. The wages of sin is death, it must be paid, or else it would go on forever.

[@gabefarris7005]

You’ll never get me back, I’m just trying to save you your time. That entire religion was constructed by humans just like all the others

[@TheMiist]

@@Abdiel_BZwe owe him for something he created us to do? Your story conveniently had some snake create sin but still… that’s the snakes fault. Why should we feel shame for doing what we’re programmed to do or corrupted by someone else to do? I’d like to be a being that doesn’t act in ways that aren’t deemed ultimately Godlike but I wasn’t made a god. As a non god how can he look at me and judge me for falling to the standards of a god? Do I judge a snail for falling to my human capabilities?

[@Abdiel_BZ]

@@TheMiist We were not created for sin, we were created to be with our Father. To believe in Jesus Christ as our savior, to love God with all our hearts, soul, mind, and strength and to love others as ourselves. God, as a father, loves us but our sin separates us from him. Sin is our evil selfish desire. Jesus paid the price for us on the cross; Jesus is God in the flesh. None of us could survive his judgement, which is why he sent Jesus for us. By believing in Jesus Christ, God shows us mercy. When we believe in Jesus Christ, we become children of God. Evil can not reign forever, it will be judged, sadly we all have evil in our hearts, and that's why we turn to Jesus Christ.
