1 RT = 1 POST ON EGO & DUALITY, THE ROOT OF ALL SUFFERING

The biggest reason for the vast majority of the population being denied access to their potential is the control that one gives to the Ego

 🧠Ego

Latin word meaning: "Self"

This is the voice inside our head. It is only one part of the overall human "eco" system.

That voice is not "You".

The ego is where intellect stems from.
Ego is the narrator of Duality. Its only function is to interpret the dual aspect of our experience. The ego is one part of an overall human "eco" system.
The intellect believes on what the intellect can prove is real. Anything outside the realm of proof within the perspective of the intellect is not real. False. Fake.
Ego's Strengths:
>Calculations
>Mathematical
>Structure
>Competition
>Problem Solving

Ego's Weaknesses:
>Being still
>Living in the moment
>Feeling over thinking
>Being collaborative
>Being creative
>Being empathetic
The Circle = Wholeness = ☸️

Flow is nature. ☯

Going with nature, with gravity.

The experience of the circle: ☸️
Cycles

>Day and Night Cycle
>Daily Work Cycle
>Seasonal Cycle
>Natural Life Cycle
>Life and Death
>Music
Circle is totality.
Encompassing.
Complete.
☸️.
Duality is the state of separation, it is the opposite of reality and the cause of all suffering. Duality is the product of the mind. In Duality we split or divide life into right/wrong, good/bad, holy/sinful.

As a result our lives become centered around judgement and fear.
Paris of Conflicting Energies:

>Right vs Wrong
>Good vs Bad
>Happy vs Sad
>This vs That
>You vs Me
>Past vs Future
>Is vs Isn't
The thing that kills you is the thing that makes you feel alive. Every decision has a dual energy to it. Every decision has both positive and negative frequencies. The perspective of the believer dictates morality. The level of existence above or beyond duality.
Fear is the fuel that feeds the Ego.

Fear is Ego's go to weapon of choice.

The more fearful a person is, the more ego-identified they are.

A key step in stripping away the ego is rooting out fear-based thoughts.
Instinct vs Intuition

Instinct is programming we're boring with (Eating, Drinking, Fucking)

Intuition comes from accumulative experience.

Intellect = Thought = Mind = Ego

A fantastic tool but still limited
"The intellectual says a simple thing in a hard way. An artist says a hard thing in a simple way"

We've confused "Knowledge" with intellectual comprehension.

Its focus is the exterior.
Outside! Without!
Can you dissolve your ego?
Can you abandon the idea of self and other?
Can you relinquish the notions of male and female, life and death?
Can you let go of all of these qualities and embrace the Way without panic?

If so; you can reach the heart of the Integral Oneness.
Zero : 0

>Represents infinite space.
>Infinite possibilities are available.
>This space is the same for everyone.
>It is the soil where the ideas are planted.
One : 1

>Represents the seed of creation
>The intention for the space
>The centre point (focus) of the idea.
>Sets the tone for the entire pattern of that creation
>The root
Everything starts from nothing (0)
First step is the allocation of its center (1)

Growth and expansion come from the center point.
Each movement is an extension of the movements before (Non-Conceptualisation)

Creativity is always with you

Non-attachment. Wu wei. Be water.
Expose yourself to your deepest fear; after that fear has no power, and the fear of freedom shrinks and vanishes.

You are free.

"What will they think of me?"

This must be put aside for bliss.

1) I was 30 years old. And in what many would consider a dream job. But I was pretty miserable. Because I knew I was letting my real dream--to become a screenwriter/filmmaker--die.

2) Sitting in my office one night, it hit me, if I did let the dream die, I would become toxic, because that's what death does, and that toxicity would ooze out of me, onto those I loved.

3)In that instant, I decided to make a shift, to find a way to finally, after years of denying it, do the thing. Try, at least. So I went to my best friend, @DavidLevien, who was already writing, and asked him for help.

4) David gave me The Artist's Way and said that when we had the right idea, he and I would write a screenplay together.

5) Soon thereafter, I had to good luck of walking into an illegal poker club in NYC, called David in the middle of the night, and we decided to write the thing.

How to Get Rich (without getting lucky):

Seek wealth, not money or status. Wealth is having assets that earn while you sleep. Money is how we transfer time and wealth. Status is your place in the social hierarchy.

Understand that ethical wealth creation is possible. If you secretly despise wealth, it will elude you.

Ignore people playing status games. They gain status by attacking people playing wealth creation games.

You’re not going to get rich renting out your time. You must own equity - a piece of a business - to gain your financial freedom.

"I lied about my basic beliefs in order to keep a prestigious job. Now that it will be zero-cost to me, I have a few things to say."


We know that elite institutions like the one Flier was in (partial) charge of rely on irrelevant status markers like private school education, whiteness, legacy, and ability to charm an old white guy at an interview.

Harvard's discriminatory policies are becoming increasingly well known, across the political spectrum (see, e.g., the recent lawsuit on discrimination against East Asian applications.)

It's refreshing to hear a senior administrator admits to personally opposing policies that attempt to remedy these basic flaws. These are flaws that harm his institution's ability to do cutting-edge research and to serve the public.

Harvard is being eclipsed by institutions that have different ideas about how to run a 21st Century institution. Stanford, for one; the UC system; the "public Ivys".

10 Types of Toxic People You Should Avoid in Life

=A THREAD BY WD=

1. The Manipulator

It’s one of the most seen toxic traits.

They pull time and energy out of your life.

Manipulators always want something from you,
They’ll do anything to win you over.

2. The Liar

If a person lies to you for the first time; forgive them. If a person lies to you for the second time, avoid them.

Never lie to someone who trusts you. Never trust someone who lies to you.

3. The Gossiper

“Great minds discuss ideas, average ones discuss events, and small minds discuss people.”

They also have an uncanny ability to put your success in danger.

Stay away from the gossip. They’re unkind, unproductive, and will hurt your chances for success.

4. The Envious

Envious people are jealous of your achievements, happiness, success, and the love you receive.

Keep an eye on such types of toxic people to avoid disturbance in your life.

When I was 17, I was in a school shooting. It was traumatic

I'm convinced that overcoming fear is the secret to winning at startups, business and life:

Here's some tips and lessons on overcoming FEAR:

The greatest productivity tip of all time:

It isn't to drink coffee or get 8 hours of sleep or use Notion

It is conquering your fears. Period.

Life is too short for fears

"Adjusted for the subjective increase in how fast time passes, life is half over by 23 or 24. Don't waste time."
h/t @samaltman

Time is ticking

Beat your "amygdala"

Amygdala = the part of your brain that registers all your fear

When you have an experience that creates fear, it gets "coded" into your brain

For the rest of your life, your amygdala, is tainted with your past experience

Arm wrestle your amygdala and win

Rejection sucks. But it's one of the most useful ways to refine your craft

Mindset shift: use fear to learn & motivate, not run away & demotivate

THREAD: Meditations on marriage metaphors in Ruth

The book of Ruth is, of course, a story about a beautiful marriage. But even before the courtship and the wedding and the important genealogy at the end, we find interesting language that is strikingly reminiscent of Genesis 2:24


That important verse reads:

'Therefore a man shall leave [יַֽעֲזָב] his father and his mother and hold fast [וְדָבַ֣ק] to his wife, and they shall become one flesh.'

The verb עזב can be quite strong in force. For example, Joseph leaves behind [וַיַּעֲזֹ֤ב] his garment as he flees from Pharaoh's wife's sexual advances. Countless times, Israel is depicted abandoning the LORD, for example in Judg 2:12 [וַיַּעַזְב֞וּ], and going after other gods.

Likewise, the verb דבק is rather striking. Lot is mortified of disaster overtaking him [תִּדְבָּקַ֥נִי] as he flees from Sodom. Israel is commanded in Deut 10:20 to cling fast [תִדְבָּ֔ק] to the LORD and serve him and swear by his name.

Together they illustrate how radical God designed marriage to be. Marriage is a real severing of family relations in order to form a new, permanent bond with another human being.

Something very similar to this takes places in Ruth's life.

THE NOTICEABLE SIGNS OBSERVED ON IMPENDING DEATH(मृत्यु के संकेत या चिन्ह)

As per Skanda Puran, Kartikeya had narrated to Muni Agastya about the signs of the coming death. This is as per this ancient scripture.


If one experiences the air coming out of right nostril continuously then it is observed that the person dies within three years. If the breathing is continuous towards upper side from both the nostrils, then the person can die within two three days.

If the breathing is through the mouth instead of the nostrils then the person may live only for two days. The person should take into coignance these signs of the occurance of any sudden death.

As per astrology when the Surya is in the 7th house and Chandrama is in its own house and the breathing is only through the right nostril then the danger exists. If you see a yellow black coloured figure who becomes invisible immediately then the life span is limited to 2 years.

If any person sneezes, passes urine, stool and semen all together he has only a year more to live. If a person sees blue coloured snakes flying in the sky then he has only six more months to live. If a person sees any thing opposite to its real self like colours

🕵️‍♂️ How Google's PageRank algorithm works

The PageRank algorithm gives each page a rating of its
importance, which is a recursively defined measure of importance, based on if important pages link to it.
It's recursive because the importance of a page refers back to the importance of other pages that link to it

Here's how it works in practice:
1⃣ We start with some pages and crawl them for links


2⃣ Each page has 1/N points (where N as the total number of pages)


3⃣ Add points to each page for the amount of links to it, divided by the number
of links emanating from the sources of these links
