Greetings!
I'm a 49 yr.old straight cis man in the United States (he/him).
I have recently become passionate about the idea of, as I am like to say, "Embracing Infinity".
Anyways, I am currently bored with most video/card/board games, music and writing/reading (I do still love them all at times, but for now, on to something else), and have spent a great deal of my life over the past year and especially month meditating on how all of existence is connected infinitely. My personal philosophy at this point in my life is that in order to realize Absolute Truth, one must try (at least) to focus on the fact that everything in existence is all one and yet simultaneously itself exactly as it is to everything else. Infinitely. And Absolute Truth is just that: Everything just is.
The buzzword these days to help experience and share this idea is "mindfulness". In my opinion, closer to the truth is the phrase "Just Be." Call it what you will -- words are irrelevant. But they, too, help.
It's good to be here and I hope we can all learn a lot from each other and have fun to boot!

Re: Greetings!
I would say having read a few introductions, the fact nobody has replied to welcome you seems to me a bit odd.
By coincidence, or sychronicity I am posting this a the same time as you did on Saturday December the 18th 2021 (assuming it shows that time when I post by clicking 'Submit')..

Re: Greetings!
Philosophy of Mind. ...
Philosophy of Religion. ...
Philosophy of Science. ...
Political Philosophy. ...
Social Philosophy. ...
Philosophy of Law. ...
Medical Ethics.
(Yes I copied and pasted from a search in Google).. in short I do not trust academics or anyone who 'knows the answers' (the accepted answers in their particular field of speciality or 'expertise'. I am a 'staunch autodidact', I never had the opportunity to go to university to study, to be inculcated by the 'educational establishment' by 'the system', my candid response would be.. I will find out everything for myself. Enough from me.. for now at least!
Note (I'm curious).. why is speciality showing up with a ziggy red underline (now ziggy has one too!).. I spelt speciality correctly didn't I..?
