"If anything they seem like emotionally blunt selfish people with huge egos."
Hmm, you say it is all hypnosis, people are fooling themselves, that since you have tried it and failded that meditation is a failure. Blunt egoic statements? funny how we can often times project ourselves onto others. Being honest, notice I said WE, I have done this MANY times too brother. so you still looking for scientific facts brother gumpi? Maybe if meditation is a failure then that means WE dont have to take responsibility for ourselves failing? Meditation may not be for everyone, maybe some people do karma yoga, some just self inquiry, others just constant awareness. I live in florida, I can get to georgia walking, riding a bike, riding a train, in a car, in a plane. SO because walking is not for me then that option is a failure? who knows, maybe if I meditate enough I can levitate there?
It is no big deal when you try and spit fire at people, fire burns off impurities and the strong will be left standing.
I do find it funny how many times you ignore when I have typed about science to you and that there is only one scientific fact, Existence, and then you still try and stick by science when science itself knows the unexplainable variable is the trump card of them all.
so maybe what I have typed is blunt and egoic, I can accept that By the way, what science do you believe in, since you have reffered to science so much?
I laugh because I do love you brother, even when we fight
with love
brother Neil
