Meditating with my new up3 fitness tracker observing resting heart rate as
this vid notif pops up
I got high watching this video O_o
brilliantly spoken.
Your glorious
passenger pigeons loved that high you are speaking of. they flew, they
swooped, they almost became an organism themselves. and they propagated.
They enjoyed their high to the point of forgetting that the rest of the
world didn’t matter. we put up nets and now there are no more passenger
pigeons….. don’t fly to high.
Trippy
i love watching jason silva flail his arms around and speak
enthusiastically about stuff!
Aww. Shopping is disgusting :(
Uh???
Robert Thurman on TED talk described that we are ultimately going to be
like buddhas – with instant access to unlimited knowledge databases and
instant presence at every point of this planet. Then there will be
questions that arises such as: what are we do with this powers.
Now conflicts are isolated, they fight as if they are on some another
planet, massive groups of people are held in such and such views because
feeding they get from their own homemade propaganda. Maybe if we are to be
ultimately connected beyond national barriers such exclusiveness on
infromation will finally be over. Swith control over the masses button will
be removed from hands of tyrants.
Psychedelics – tyrants hate them – they hate it because they serve as tool
to swith off control over our brains. They can help us to liberate us from
their long held influence.
If we combine technology, psychedelics and liberative thought – we could
transform this planet, leave behind old paradigms and old ways of thinking,
enter new reality and establish new global space civilization.
Chill bruh.. All headsets and musics are products other people sell.. Its
all about money so stop this shit
magnificent!
“bose-beats” ? ugh…
So who do you talk about when you say “we” in this video? From my
experience 95% of all people don’t care about the quality of their music
and or media as they use 10$ headsets, while listening to low bitrate
youtube mp3-rips or watching movies on illegal streaming sites where you
can barely follow the movement of the action in fast moving scenes.
I always try to encourage people to look at the quality of the media they
consume but most just won’t listen and say they are fine with the way
things are. 🙁
High fidality is, as its always has been, a narrow niche.
Sometimes, it rains in my face.
Thats way too hyperbolic about it. Numbing (Or ‘involving’) yourself to
intense luxury is not the same as experiencing self control and
understanding.
There is other comments out here that i see that also make sense to this.

Oh crap not that many comments but immidiatly people are picking up on this
overly enthusiastic explanation to a made up term. Technology doesnt put
people at a “higher state” it numbs you to a careless one. Not exactly a
happy one.
Heres an idea, videogames have started doing some crazy tought provoking
shit like make you realize your decisions. Those are ideas but the
technology allowed the idea to be expressed much more personal. So
retrospectivelly im thinking about how the game as mechanics can be
corelated to real life. “How many good choices have i shy’d away from?”
Not everyone will pick up on this idea and everyone picks up on thoughts to
their own account. That is simply a thought i took to heart inspired by how
games portrayed it. But no doubt people before this technology allready
expressed these ideas. Like, wherethe hell did religion or spiritual
beliefs even come from?
*Im sorry, i think this is stupid. I hate this video because of how many
times i hate sitting on my computer, ‘thinking’ like i have nothing to do
when i can fucking write my dissertation and feel happier about it, or
improve my drawing skills and feel happier about it, instead im smashing my
sense of seperateness in the form of electronic buddhism. fucking kill me.*
I wanna go higher and higher! :3
So you mean become part of the borg? O.o Don’t fly too high.
you should actually understand what the Buddha said.
and we create technologies for one purpose to solve our problems.
P.S. observation: you can’t think clearly while experiencing so many
emotions. that’s why I am subscribed you: to watch how emotions makes mind
blind
Glad to be back to the high production format, the vloger with a go-pro was
starting to grind my gears a bit.Good thoughts though, highly enjoy them.
Would be nice to meet Jason at some Vipassana or Zazen one week retreat. I
will pay 10.000 bucks to work with him in a seven days “Who Are You?”
Satori Group, hahaha…:-)
Damn.. I loved this guy, but then he went off on a crusade to just
romanticize consumerism
He really needs to calm down he sounds ridiculous
So, by desiring to eliminate your separate-ness, you embrace a kind of
electronic Buddhism? Desire is kind of a no-no in Buddhism…
you have some great videos. BUT this one shows your desire for nars….
nevermind feed the sheep .
If you want high quality and high fidelity you don’t want ‘Beats’ :-/
Would love to have you as a guest on my weekly show for Millennial
Entrepreneurs. If you’d be up for that (we do it as a Hangout and Blabcast)
shoot me an email at: prosperity.reinvented (at) gmail Love your work!
Namaste!
great video
Does anyone know where I can suggest stuff for him to think about? Because
I would really like to know what makes people so obsessed with fire? Not
like pyromaniacs, but just people who enjoy sitting around one and looking
at it, or the people who just flick open a zippo and will light it, close
it and do it again.
i’m high AF ! state mode : chill and fly high
High Resolution, High Fidelity, High High High HAHAHAHA… I see what you
did there.
There’s nothing buddhist about *wanting always more of anything…*
Yes, that’s what we want. You put it right, you put it right.
Love these videos, the production doubles with every one. Maybe a little
heavy on the reverb decay time though!
1. Watch Shots of Awe
2. Take a shot for every time the word “Mediate” or “Mediated” comes up.
3. Die of alcohol poisoning.
