Yes but all this would do is disprove the scientist hypothesis because one of the characteristics of the scientific method is that it has to be repeatable.

That's definitely interesting but since you use the word experiment and experiment connotates the scientific method I would not say that holds up under the scrutiny of scientific method.

Ok, interesting. How do you determine if your observations reflect objective reality verses a subjective mental interpretation?

Ok interesting, interesting. What do you base this view upon? 🤔

Sometimes it's better that way.

1. What's high? 2. What's mind? 3. What's human?

Amateurs mistake. Everyone knows it's a big ball of cheese. 😊🧀

Yes

It's good that you're paying attention to your body because some advice that's out there which I believe to be poor advice is just to blaze through these things but meditation can actually have very adverse side effects for some people and you should definitely listen to your body.

There's not a specific meditation for this but Buddhist meditation in general can see through the false self that we create.

Yes that can happen. If it does you should back off a bit.

That would be exactly how I describe it as well.

Wow I've never heard anyone use so many words to say absolutely nothing.

Oh where do I sign up? 😏

Maybe not but over the years there have been "sales people" that come through here and they usually have websites to check out and I think people become a bit Jaded.

OMG same! lol *was even on the MMA path at the time.

I think Tibetan Buddhism became more well known and widespread in the West because of the Tibetan diaspora after the invasion.

Just curious, who's definition is this?

Kaihe do you understand how it works yourself, and if so could you put the theory and practice into your own words? I can tell you how to awaken via the Buddhist path without having to refer you to a website if you wish.

Actually that's probably what I was thinking of LOL 😂

I've noticed the Theravada tend to call him Gautama more often, and the Mahayana call him Siddhartha more often.

1. You realize that transgenderism is not homosexuality. 2. Homosexuality is not a disease.

Yeah C minus for me huh LOL

So the idea is let nature take its course? Interesting.

Mindfulness. When feeling fear observe the fear with out interference or judgment. When the mind comes to realize something is suffering then it lets go of it.
