    Well,I’m the one that meditation is not for me,doesn't work,and it's ALOB.Also been through some stuff along the way ( 35 years of heavy alcohol and drug use,homelessness, self-exile,depression,panic attacks,suicidal tendencies,self-harm ,to name but a few ) But then 9 months ago I gave it 10 minutes a day, and something happened, also Sam Harris did the unthinkable and gave me a year for free,and now,most certainly,I'm on my way to make the Universe better.Thanks a million Sam.

    can't say i'm a big fan of sam's other work, but his guided meditations are the best i've come across in terms of actually drawing out observations, insights, and knowingness of consciousness and its hidden machinations

    • @apricus3155
      @apricus3155 2 года назад

      For the plural we usually use the letter "s" in the end of the word. So "..are the greatest intellectuals.." would be more correct. Also you seem to have used an capitalized "I" here when it could not serve any possible purpose.
      English is my second language too. I like English though and try to improve mine.
      Ofcourse the sentence here is untrue, but it is understandable that you have such beliefs.

    Without unlearning all the culture or "soft skills" we developed for living as a society in the past, we would not have the foundation of truth that is necessary to make progress into the future.

    I have heard about the risk of mental problems when practicing vipassana. How big is the risk of a dissociation that leads you into mental problems?

    • @zkassai.audio.2
      @zkassai.audio.2 9 месяцев назад

      I wouldn't know statistics on it, but some descriptions of "enlightenment" do sound uncomfortably close to dissociation if you don't interpret it the right way.
      I think the trick is remembering that the fact your experience is entirely created by your mind doesn't mean it's "fake"; or, at least, it being "fake" or "imperfect" doesn't make it less meaningful, nor does it change the fact that it's still the ONLY reality you'll ever have.
      Heck, we can see that blurry interpretative line right here.
      One can hear Sam telling us to "wake up", and think that "the dream" is our mental reality, and "waking up" means somehow waking up into another reality entirely.
      But he directly states it: we CAN'T directly access the physical reality.
      So where does that leave us?
      The "dream about a prison", then, isn't the mental reality; but the fact we don't realize how much it is mental.
      So, I think "waking up" is really about realizing that our experience will never be truly objective; realizing that it is a flawed representation of an inaccessible world, and will always be... and recognizing that, by staying conscious of that, you can see just HOW it's flawed, how it's warped by mental constructs to always push you in some direction or other, regardless of whether that direction is happiness or not.

    All right, I have decided to give this waking up stuff a chance. Not impressed by this first video, standard meditation school introduction: why other meditations are inferior, what my meditation is not, promise of some massive but vague reward. After a couple dozens teachers one becomes pretty critical. And a little skeptical. Moving on to the next video.

    Hi I have a topic that hardly anyone brings up because they are a coward. And it's hard for me to get a platform to go over this topic because people are cowards. But it is an important topic. And since you believe in facts, science, biology, and you want topics that can get people to think logically, I was wondering if you could give me a minute to pitch this topic to you? If not what is the criteria for someone to be a guest on your program?
    If it makes any difference I have a very popular page known as The Universe Galaxy.
    Thank you

    • @GetMeThere1
      @GetMeThere1 3 года назад +12

      @@sergeidadoyan2061 Sam does an excellent job of giving direct evidence that "we" have no freedom anyway, whether we agree or not. He does it by noting that the best description of "I" is surely "awareness/consciousness." If you then watch your thoughts carefully you can see that you are UNAWARE of your thoughts until they simply "pop" into your awareness. Thus, you are NOT the author of your thoughts. Furthermore, it's those thoughts which are "predetermined" by your "mind," your genetics, your environment, etc., and BELIEVING that you author them actually LIMITS your experience and consciousness considerably. Freeing yourself from thT delusion provides virtually infinitely greater "freedom" because you're no longer trapped in the world created by them.

    I surely will not accept any of Sam's advice without a lot of caution since he became completely deranged about Trump. If he can behave in such an insane way regarding Trump, that is sufficient proof that his meditation practice is a potential cause of a serious future derangement. Sam's getting off Twitter is a sign of his severe fragility. Sam, work harder on your meditation and reflect on the cause of your Trump derangement.

    you are a great speaker Sam but you don't know anything more about living life than the rest of us. As if you have something others do not have. Its interesting that some human being thing they have something to teach that they think has actual structure. I have done my own meditation practice for years. Nobody wakes up on their own. "this entire human experience is an illusion" how can you claim anything is truth? you cant. its all a story. its all invention and imagination. You are a great guy but there is much you can never know.
