Virtual socialization (second life)

Usually occurs before death, but some things happen in their lifetime - to lead to unity with itself and svjata awareness of life. The knowledge related to socialization that inevitably passes through a tunnel as well, is surprisingly harmful to the need for socialization. Therefore, people usually do not recommend you think about the meaning of things (especially not the life), and number 42 is already quite satisfactory answer to all questions. (:])

There's a clue - unity and one of his close - universalism. The two decided to merge in 1961 jointly formed zdrzhenie where you will be grouped and debate on certain philosophical or social issues. Universalism has utilitarian religious - philosophical basis, but this association has members who are from different religions and even atheists. The guiding motto is: "free and responsible search for truth and meaning".

He had just returned from a session with a group of commonly used univerzalisti certainly physical, but with a microphone and chat, as well as full spiritual setting second life thanks to the program (and play for someone). Attended with a friend and I joined the debate a topic for an opinion about drugs, specifically - psihodelicite and their need for careful integration with the spiritual goals. Host chose my topic and this one-hour mass religious - philosophical society was a fascination for me. They had a fairly clear view that the changed consciousness through psihodelici is mainly positive for spiritual isksutva. Utilitarian Umiverzalizam company is certainly aware already freed from all social prejudices, and in some way and expect their positive attitude. Here are some posts from the discussion:

[Seven two p.m.] Cedarbridge Darcy: I think I Would Also Say That Might Not a UU necessarily Believe That Drug Usage is "Bad" just the governemtnsays Because IT is.
[19:05] Joan Ixito: How An ALTERED CAN state of consciousness BE spiritual?
[7:06 p.m.] Ixito Joan: I suppose if I know My state of consciousness is ALTERED, I'd My disregard induced "experiences"
[seven six p.m.] Ferox: the only Thing you do anything by Making Illegal is CREATE MARKET Black and a more Make People Want to do IT.
[seventeen past seven p.m.] Darcy Cedarbridge: Ferox, do you think IOS Enlightenment a Personal or shared experiencer?
[7:17 p.m.] Ferox: Well im coming from a buddhist perspective on this, Who are those apparently enlightened have gotten RID of all notions of the self, So technically Since the self doesnt exist, IT IS a shared Experience.
[7:18 p.m.] Joan Ixito: CAN IT BE how shared if there is no ONE to share IT with .. no becouse ONE Has a self.
[19:19] Ferox: Well i Mean, I'm coming from Where is That there is no self for anyone, So We are all just non Existing, Together .. so it is SORT of shared.

Incidentally, I have not met Macedonians in second life, most Americans and Englishmen. After a little while I get the feeling that the West with this new solution includes the actual obligations simplificiranje turning to life, meetings, and maintenance and mission in the 3D virtual world of second life. Perhaps it is the future. But however, works perfectly as a virtual socialization in the original sense of the term, unlike Facebook, which has quite the opposite effect, because there is communication with unknown repulsive because of the prejudices exposed personal information.

Three dimensional virtual second life this way and the gentle sound of the group meetings to debate (via chat and microphone) for some philosophical, psychological, social and religious themes; a fascinating opportunity for virtual socializing with people from around the world.Otherwise, every Thursday at 18 am (at that time is Friday at 3 am) in the second life world "UUtopia", held its meeting of unitary univerzalisti, whose organization and several members of his immediate family of Barack Obama.

Free will (and the power of consciousness)

It is clear that in every moment of life decide one of the myriad choices of our next act, it becomes interesting when you know that 95% of our actions control our subconscious. Then you impose prashnje: how to determine responsibility?

One neuronauchnik Sam Harris in his first book has described an experiment which proves that our brain reacts to 10 seconds before it did when our conscience needs to decide something.From here he comes to suspect that we might have free will:

Supernatural experiences (and astral dimension)

Most people have experienced the supernatural experiences of different Level, there are documentary films over the years many such documented cases of indigo children to Indian spiritualisti with supernatural powers. The fact is that there are people with such power, but their occurrence is still unexplained by scientists, unity but futurists are convinced that they are the new evolution of human kind. Their sebeobjasnuvanje turn leads to yoga and meditation as the main factors for the opening of those millions of us back mentally opportunities.

Glory

There is a religion called glory (or glory), which is a branch of Christianity and the Christians have an interesting motto: "let your light shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father who is in heaven." But this is pretty irrelevant, because the notion of fame is interesting philosophical and psychological point of view, but they accidentally took the religion. I think fame as a religious phenomenon has more substance than any existing religion. The basic common base of the two is a false reflection or fanciful account. Falsity increases directly proportional to the increase of fans (fans, followers). Almost came across an article ( LINK ) for the idealization of art, primarily of skepticism like Kelley, so often follow. But this time he idealiziranjeto justified as a means of filtration quality, although I was completely the opposite, especially after one of metakritika frustration, he has curable with schadenfreude over it ( LINC ), however, agreed with Kelly because of all of us necessary and all idealiziranjeto undoubtedly do it every day in numerous ways - music, film, filmmakers, writers, poetry, humor. In fact it is osnovoto fuel that drives us in life - the impression, admiration. Something similar happens with the female glamor as a magnet for men, and basically just fake mask.

Umetniziranje (and association with depression)

Umetniziranje the topic would include all research that examines the art and its occurrence and vireenje general. Umetniziranje means creating art. But I think otsekoga W be tempting to find out what art is and how it occurs, always a magic perfume even the very notion, which is characterized, but also gives tremendous freedom to free-determination of its meaning. The Wikipedia definition says that art is all human creative activities, except those directly related to reproduction and survival. So najkonceznata form of naive art is that which bears only kreatiziranje emotional warmth and is excluded from any kind of commercial purpose.

Plasibo psihodelija and effect (and Cybertherapy)

Psychedelia always on the scientists represent an alternative way samolechenje, and its apparent need in medicine when he is in the powerless condition. Scientists researching treatment for depression, lately I find moovrzanosta plasibo the effect and psychedelia.

Amerikanskiont journalist Jon Horgen known for his positive views on the usefulness of LSD and psychedelic substances, as well as his book " Science of the Dead "; writes on his blog that psychedelic therapy actually use the power of plasibo effect:

" Psychedelics clearly exploit the PLACEBO effect, in Complicated iżda Ways. To make clinical trials of a drug more rigorous, researchers sometimes give subjects in the control group an "active placebo," which unlike a sugar pill has discernable physiological or mental effects, so subjects can't easily tell whether they are in the control group . If psychedelics are placebos, They Should BE perhaps hyperactive called placebos, Because their psychotropic effects are So dramatic. "

The Guru explains that the model of Timothy - " Setting and set ", a sort of psychedelic therapy in which the trip is under personal control over the first part of the model T - Mind-set instrikciite, requiring a person to focus on what you think should be achieved, for example winning the alcoholism, the obsesivna beskontrola, melancholy, fear of dying and so on. When this psychedelic therapy team inserted into the religious atmosphere (which is the second part of the model -Setting in which he proposes to invent any religion and its aim to Guru title), it becomes quite logical that he is aware of the effect and plasibo it uses by setting the pattern for psychedelic tarapija.

Sajbertarapijata ( Cybertherapy = psihotarapija via PC) has similar connections with the effect plasibo vituelna giving confidence that to some extent utilized in reality. There are claims that America is spending $ 4 million for sajbertarapija the U.S. military. Soldiers are released to fight Tues au whirlpool tuelno Iraqi village to gain greater precision.

In any case, whether through a psychedelic psihotarapijata or cyber therapy, it is effective only in those cases in which the person strongly believes in therapy, the other Sun Which means that the methods are here only for the power of ispolzuvanje plasibo effect.

Here's a video about the biology of belief, and anywhere from 3:30 fascination with the included plsibo effect:

The role of authority ('question authority'-T.L.)

Authority plays a major role in the issue of validity, authenticity and quality in all interpersonal events or events in the planet. One psychologist has left behind quite familiar phrases (and before) itself, including this: "Think for yourself, question authority", which is very little concerns of the people, and even less understood in its true message. It usually happens because of indifference of people to think and spread the cult of "nezamaranje" flavored with cannabis, turbo, rap and several human noise that interfere with the evolutionary process. But there are always bright spots in the vlesena darkness, so in case there are people who have ever discovered what true authority is important in all processes of getting and losing are part of everyday activities polurandom a man. So there he discovered that, I wrote these instructions: 1st Choose your battles wisely. Observe the distortion methods for reinforcement of authority, it can happen for example when the professor's nagging (if you are a student) by asking questions in sequence, inert it can lead to the opposite effect. Climbing higher is not authoritative Level must be based on exploiting the good will of the people. second , however, if an authoritative person acting mistakenly hurting people or human rights, in no circumstances be justified because of its authority. You have as a human being not only the right but the duty, to prevent it. Global authority justify many evils, but it should not be happening, taking one's authority to this level is actually lower its Level to very low. 3rd down or sometimes perception of authority is quite abstract, like checking the correctness of the read or heard the wisdom or common wisdom of a community or collective. For example if most have common views, not necessarily always right or that the only choice, it just means that more people share similar views about a specific topic, nothing more. When you use it to their right to publicly questioning the authority or the validity of a particular group opinion, you are engaged in critical thinking, and it is simply fantastic! 4th Your authority is yours right. You are what you think and the more you appreciate yourself, the more you appreciate others, but you can not abuse it through the good will of the people (not to be seen as an overestimation), but your value must justify investing in their capabilities for independence through the art of speech arguments and logical thinking, and emotional stability. Simple: you are what you think.

The issue of avtoritetnosta and its necessity in the ascent of a Level above the eyes of others, there are many branching segments, but mainly this is enough for a small boost to some thoughts about this topic. It may be useful for thinking, maybe not. Everything depends on our subjectivity that is ours certainly are, but not the only existing perception of things.
