[QUOTE="Ishmael, post: 74872, member: 532"] This guy appears to think that he is one with or God himself at the end, but the basic philosophy seems to be this: As most people get older, they break down not mostly because of actual age but due to actions they take, or rather do not take in this instance. If they lack a purpose in life, they will act and perform less, therefore their breakdown is accelerated. This is pretty apt and self evident. If you do not value your life your death will stem from it. I'm honestly not sure what he's trying to say here. It seems as if that he is trying to say that attachment to the right things will grand you immortality. I'm not familiar with the guy that he mentions Ray Peat here, but maybe there's some clues into what he fell into that might lead you down more this guy's thought process. He is convinced that you can only die if you permit or allow yourself to, which is interesting. This part seems to be claiming that there's a balance of both attaching and detaching from 'material sin' (whatever that means) which almost to me seems like he's trying to say balance out evil and good in your life through a degree of attachment, which seems very vague. He says that the body only breaks down once you run out of energy, purpose or connection and it can happen to either your attached or detached self. To me it sounds like he's saying you have a spiritual and a physical battery that must be upkept in order to maintain your ability to regenerate, all while knowing about the funnel (maybe to influence it). This part makes the least sense out of all because it's very vague. I could make a ton of deep inferences if I just assume what he's talking about, but I would like to avoid that. [/QUOTE]
