I like torturing and raping people, guess I should become a dictator.

@LVader20 ...So this is where optimism is a very useful tool...when you're thinking outside the box and imagining how much you're capable of, and what you are able of experiencing...the idea is to move toward something rather than fight against or run away from something...like the story of how Peter walked on water when he saw his friend Jesus because he was so excited to go see him..but as soon as he looked down and his doubt got the best of him, he sank..his doubt had an affect on his reality

@LVader20 It's not crazy to feel like you already know these things...especially if you have similar spiritual opinions that I have, which include the idea that we existed long before we incarnated on earth in this current life, and came from a state of total knowingness...as for DEFEATING your programmed beliefs, I think the act of trying to defeat them is what keeps them in place. By fighting against them, you're creating the scenario that they still have a hold on you...

"victim". If you want to be a victim, then that's what you'll get. Or you can have CONFIDENCE that you ARE free, you ARE secure, you ARE safe, you already ARE equal, strong, capable, creative, able to adapt, you're your own leader, your own "boss", and NO ONE ELSE has the authority to control you. So are you really ready? Only YOU have the answer to that

taste like horseradish, etc...) This brings up another virtue -- ACCEPTANCE. Are you sick and tired of the struggle? Then ACCEPT, ACCEPT, ACCEPT. And to tie that in with the first point, ACCEPT with CONFIDENCE and RESPECT. And if you have appreciation for the whole soup and you're not OBSESSED with any one ingedient, then you'll naturally respect and accept all the other ingredients. You won't be hurt by oany other "ingredients" in this life unless you let them hurt you by taking the role of

What this video is getting at is confidence and self-respect (instead of constant self-judgement)...confidence and self-respect (as well as responsibility, self-discipline, and many other virtues that become second-nature when you're fully aware and coherent) are virtues that are tied in with excitment. Everything in life is intertwined..life is like a soup of individual flavors that culminate together to deliver the overall taste (without the harsh flavor of radish, horseradish sauce wouldn't

Do whatever YOU want to do. What feels right for you right now, right this second? That's all that matters. But are you being HONEST with yourself? Are you clear about what you truly want? Are you coherent? Does your intention make any coherent SENSE to you? Do you understand yourself? If not, that's step 1. Know what you want. Until you get to that point, your life will be chaotic. .Peace and Love.

You can simply step off the roller coaster and choose a different experience, mix it up a little....what I like to do after a roller coaster ride is sit back and enjoy the moment, relax, just observe and chill and flow with the flow. Maybe even leave the funpark and do something else entirely. Do you see what I'm relating here? And to be clear, it's not suicide. By saying "leaving the funpark" I do not mean to imply leaving this life by your own hand. I mean doing your own thing.

OK let's get a broader definition of "excitement", shall we? It doesn't mean you HAVE TO keep entertaining the experience of duality (good vs. "bad", positive intentions vs. negative intentions, etc.) Many many people have a war going on within them, so to speak. The war of duality. And they convince themselves that this chaotic war is "excitement" (OH SHIT Kobe just scored, booo....OH YAY LeBron just scored YAYYY) The roller coaster ride doesn't have to go on forever, people.
