...you clearly missed the implied question or intentionally dodged it . Let's see how enlightened you truly are by seeing if you can figure out what I was asking or if you have the honesty to answer it ?

Best thing you can do. You'll noticeably feel better in a day or two.

Good luck, man! I just quit like six months ago, and that shit is hard. Almost as hard as actually answering a question.



For someone who claims to like the truth, you sure do keep lying to yourself.

My whole point is that you HAVEN'T argued it with me. You've simply dismissed anything specific I've had to say with "Oh, but you haven't read the whole thing!" It's pathetic, and it shows how scared you are to actually face the real world.

Well, if you do not ask a clear question, do not wait for an answer.
I can not guess what crazy things are happening in your head.
You should listen to your heart a little more from time to time.
If you have a question, and ask it in a simple way without irony or lies etc, I will be happy to answer it.



Ok, so I will continue NOT to argue with you, happy ?



If desire to quit like I did, it will be easy, and you will feel better fast enough.
Keep faith in yourself.

Thanks all.

...the question

...do you use illicit substances ? ( not your definition of illicit but societies )

I have a second question if you answer the first and if you answer both I will enlighten you as to what you have fallen into with this " truth contest " stuff .

You never had an argument to begin with. You simply use thinly veiled insults such as 'well you just don't know the truth' or 'you are blinded' rather than actually discussing substance.

Not particularly. I'd like you to have the bravery to actually face the truth, rather than wrapping yourself up in the illusions that this book has provided you.

I use cannabis with moderation (with a vaporizer, it is not bad for my body), and alcohol too (about 1 glass of good red wine/day, nothing more... it is not bad for my body either).
I am not addicted to them thought, I will not feel bad if I do not take any cannabis or wine tomorrow.
I do not use them to try escape reality... I did that before I read The Present, but I am done with that. I only use them to relax my mind (think less), enjoy the present moment.
The fact is I still need to relax my mind and body, it will take some time because I spent years to try to escape reality (or I should say 10000 years of mental slavery).
I do not need your enlightment, no thanks... but I will answer your 2nd question if I understand it like this one.



It is not an insult, I was blind too, and I am still a little...



As I said more that once, it is an open Contest, if you have a better explanation of the truth, just provide it to me, and I will face it my friend.

...you display an inordinate amount of anger , hostility and aggression and then disappear for periods of time when I suspect you are much more docile . Have you ever been diagnosed with a bipolar disorder ?
