This is a great telegram channel updated daily on mainly buddhist events and meditation teachings. Where do you go and get teaching to learn how to sit? Well why not go to those who has been maintaining meditation practise for thousands of years

I recommend you watch out for Dzogchen introduction events because it seem most suited for westerners these days.

For students or low incomers Most teachings are donation based and offer scholarship so you can always attend if you cant afford, ask for scholarship and they will help you don't be shy this is very common!


Guilty with contaminating earth human consciousness with propaganda designed to cause conflict fear and doubt

why is my phone always getting slower with each new big release? Should I avoid new versions completely to avoid lowering performance?


I have a 5 year old iPhone running iOS 16 which is snappier than most Android phones out of the box. The only problem I have is that it’s extremely aggressive at killing backgrounded apps due to the tiny amount of RAM and no swap.

However, it isn’t surprising or malicious for Apple to optimise their software for modern hardware. They still seem to do a significantly better job supporting old hardware than anyone else.

Perhaps some components in your phone are dying? If you go into Battery settings, has Peak Performance Capability been reduced?


1) You always need to wait a two or day before assessing performance. Often the Spotlight index is being rebuilt.

2) Nobody should ever evaluate anything on a .0 release. Wait a few point releases.

3) I've found the last few iOS/OSX releases to have better performance as their moved to pushing services based revenue.


Safari seems a bit faster to me


To figure this out one has to sit in meditation and find out for one self This is metaphysics not psychology, perhaps you are asking the wrong people.


Why is science not suitable to answer this question?


Inappropriate methodology, culture(s), conventions, etc.


Donald hoffman says something exactly like that in this talk. David Bohm came the same conclusion science will never fully figure it out the answer is much spiritual and imaginative

Why? because ultimately we are talking about a empty field of space propagated by light, similar to holograms. Things that grow here things that stem from this world do you think they really are what they appear to be? Of course not. So what are they god damnit? perhaps its better to not answer the question and like a good old mystic leave it be and open a portal to another dimension and have this experience for one self


The errors/issues here are much higher in the stack than what Hoffman and Bohm are getting that at the levels you note, though Bohm in addition to that also spoke a lot about language and communication (which is an important part of the issue here).


Please elaborate The problem is always thought?


This eating proteins seems like a some sort of mind virus these days propelled by clever marketing. I don't think anyone ever have to worry about how much protein they need the body tell you when you need to eat more protein it usually comes with desire or craving certain foods

having the condition that you need to eat certain amount of protein everyday is probably a lot worse for your health than eating to little protein one day


> I don't think anyone ever have to worry about how much protein they need the body tell you when you need to eat more protein it usually comes with desire or craving certain foods

People can barely differentiate hunger from thirst, let alone protein hunger, what happens actually is the complete opposite of your interpretation though, low protein diet cause hunger, and since sugar and fat are addictive people go for these food first.

Your body doesn't send a lot of signals and the vast majority of these signals were for our ancestors who only had access to the most basic of foods in relative low quantity coupled with a lot of exercise. In our modern world of unlimited cheap calorie dense food that you can get delivered to your sofa in 20 minutes these signals are your greatest enemy.

> However, where low-protein diets are simultaneously high in fats and carbohydrates and low in non-caloric diluents such as fibre and water, the homeostatic mechanisms can be overwhelmed leading to positive energy balance, particularly where carbohydrates are rapidly digested non-resistant starches and sugars. If exposure is chronic, this leads to increased adiposity which itself can exacerbate the imbalance by decreasing protein efficiency thus increasing its deficiency and triggering further intake

https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/18296329/

> Several studies have shown that high protein meals and foods are more satiating than high carbohydrate or high fat meals


skip studies, skip science. This is yoga find out for your self. If you exercise, if you meditate if you eat organic You become receptive and sensitive and all the information you could ever want is right there available within Including what you need to eat


Your body's feedback mechanisms are only approximations, and furthermore need to be trained. You crave the foods that you've been regularly exposed to that have the nutrients you're lacking, but if someone hasn't been exposed to good food, they won't crave it. Telling people to eat more protein is a signal that they should pay attention to how much protein they're actually ingesting because it may be lacking (which it typically is).


There is absolutely no mechanism in your body to signal the need for specific nutrients or macro-nutrients. The signs of protein deficiency are simply hunger and weakness[1], which is pretty vague.

This is a function of higher mind; awareness, you have everything you need I would go with instinct. Science will never be able to explain how this works, just abandon all hope of scientific rescue. You have everything you need within.


You're describing magical thinking. As a counterpoint you can look at the problem of scurvy on per-industrial naval voyages. They didn't have an instinct to eat citrus, it was discovered by a long and painful period of trial and error. As another counterpoint, historically "rabbit starvation"[1] otherwise know as protein poisoning has been an issue periodically. If people innately felt the need to consume fat in particular this wouldn't happen.
