Disagree. It's our suffering that gives life its meaning.

you're thinking of entropy.

suffering is what gives existence meaning to a daemon.

The suffering of man is both necessary and useful

you're mixing up entropy with suffering lol

people think getting cancer and death is suffering, that is entropy

letting it cause you to suffer is letting a daemon (negative energy) cause you suffering (pain), there is no need to suffer because entropy is absolute. It'd be like being frustrated that 1+1 always comes out to 2. Its not going to change weather you are suffering or not. There is only understanding.

Without entropy you wouldn't understand suffering, and therefore would not be able to enjoy the opposite of it.

You should let entropy reveal the joy in life, not let entropy force you to spend it suffering.

Get it yet guys?

The only thing that matters: A positive mental attitude.

PMA!

Entropy refers a system not an individual.

I think I would pick Hindu if I had to because you can kinda pick and choose what you wanna be, like you can live by a graveyard and do acid boogies covered in ash or you can be a starving ascetic or crossdress or w/e u wanna do and they got a worship system for that.

When iranian and indo-aryan religions split, the concept of angels and demons was reversed for the two. One class of deities became venerable in the iranian pantheon and demons in the Indian, and vice versa

I’m not sure why this happened or even how it’s applicable to this conversation or any other, but it’s one of those eccentricities of history that fascinates me

For my part, I’d definitely choose Zoroastrianism. Huge emphasis on the truth and purity of the earth, dwelling, plus Mithra (Mitra) worship is kind of bad ass. War/sun god
