Instead I became too self aware, rejected organized religion and suddenly the world looks bare and mechanical and animalistic. Just primitive organisms fighting entropy with whatever means they have. Marxism and politics are no replacement to the transcendance of Christianity. Materialism is a dead end.
How does one regain hope in this barren world? Is mysticism an avenue? How can one overcome nihilism

>>2489770All religions are fake but spirituality is real. God is real but he's not that petty, petulant man in the sky from the Abramoid religions. Get into meditation, manifestation, vibration/energy work, and reiki.

>>2490228Plenty of people can relate to what you are feeling, you're just being a massive self absorbed faggot about it who just wants to post and say "nobody understand me", instead of actually being willing to see plenty of people go through this very very basic "I was a theist now an atheist and now my driving directive in life is gone and I am confused as how to rebuild it". You are posting on a communist internet forum where the average post quality is worse than 2 month old bread. Go outside and seek out formerly theistic atheists from your own cultural background IRL and talk with them. I have always been an atheist, this board is for politics, I went through this shit at age 13, this isn't the place for it. Your lack of meaning is not because of Marxism, it is because you no longer believe the foundational ideas of theism that drove your life before, and Marxism probably isn't even the thing that got you out of it unless you used it as a heavily anthropological lense for religious history, which is also what happens to shitlibs who study theology and history.
Go have a drink with some friends, find a community of formerly religious atheists of your religion and go talk to them on reddit or irl or something.
>How does one regain hope in this barren world? Is mysticism an avenue? How can one overcome nihilism
it's all in your head m8, before you were happy over imaginary bullshit, now you are sad over imaginary bullshit
just stop caring about imaginary bullshit m8, metaphysics isn't real, be it materialist or idealist, reality is not real, do whatever, believe whatever, live your best life.
also this mindset is not incopatible with leftism, you don't need to murder god and all 'magical' thinking to be a leftist, that's just the bitter marxists talking, don't take life advice from marxists, they are sad people.
>>2490538Worshiping and religion is a human construct. Animals are naturally at one with God, as are babies.
The spirit world is real, but nearly all religions either fail to teach how to tune into it or straight up spread lies about it.
Same. I haven't yet accepted that I will have to grow old and die, and that everything I value will be swept away by the years. In fact, I often wake up at night regretting not having enjoyed the past as much as I could have, and not enjoying the present as much as I want.
>>2489824Sometimes I wonder if it would be more helpful than therapy. These professionals are extremely ignorant and incompetent in my country.
>>2489770The comfort of religion is just confusing peace and quiet, you were actively ignoring the material world and the implications of its systems.
If you want peace, it's within you. You just need to cultivate it. I don't know you so I can't tell you how, but the peace religion let you feel is still in you.
>>2491560I took magic mushrooms and it did help me more than therapy but imo having legit psychology knowledge and introspecting a lot really helps.
If you spend some time just pirating therapy and psychology books and also writing a lot of poetry and journalling or whatever helps you "see" your inner world more directly I think that shrooms will help you much more once you actually do em.
I once tripsitted a friend. This friend is a musician as well as a painter. Thing is that at one point he went towards one of his paintings (a self portrait) and started talking to it. I knew because of the way he was talking that it was actually a conversation and he could hear the painting talk back. Anyway what I got from my friend's side of the conversation was that the painting came from a place of deep sadness. After he was done talking to the painting it seemed like he had discovered a lot about himself, things he had never thought consciously before. Anyway I don't know how to end this post so I'll just make a candlejack post becau-
>>2491913This tbh, just autism out about fantasy game lore and religions
Or not even that, historically mythologies
You can enjoy all the stories about gods and magic and heroes, all the medieval or ancient society aesthetics, but just accept it's a fiction
>>2489770What I have learned throughout my life is that humans are very fragile creatures, and we have very little control over our life and actions. Food, shelter and weather, the very basics for our survival are rather fragile. They depend on weather, available resources, etc. The decisions we make irremediably lead to a path that you or may not regret. Making the "right" decision is often impossible. Chances are we will never cure some diseases such as Alzheimer or cancer, either because it's physically impossible or we lack the needed resources/knowledge.
Sometimes just accept that life throws your way, and deal with it somehow. It is how you deal with life, and how you act when you have agency that matters. Outside of that not much you can do. I find comfort in the the inherent rebellion of the human spirit: the longing for freedom, the capacity of love, artistic creation, etc. Your existence is in itself rebellion.
>>2489770>primitive organismsAs compared to what? If anything we are the least primitive organisms we know about
>fighting entropy with whatever means they haveHuh? We excellarate entropy, we don't fight it lol
>Marxism and politics are no replacement to the transcendance of ChristianityThey're not meant to
>Materialism is a dead end. It's what is the truth, sorry reality is so hard for you to accept
>How does one regain hope in this barren world? Is mysticism an avenue? How can one overcome nihilismJust stop caring about this gay ass egotistical "philosophy" stuff like transcendance or mysticism or whatever other bullshit and accept what is real and what needs to be done
>>2492081>imageI believe this is real.
Somewhere in Amerikkka there is a 'licence' (purchased certificate) therapist with a stack of these pictures in a drawer who hands them out to their clients and says, 'this is you, you are just fat and in a prison of your own making. job done. That will be over 9000 dollars, please.'
>>2489770>I miss the comfort of religion How?
Most of these religions believe your afterlife will probably consist of eternal hellfire and burning, even if you weren't a good enough believer or chose the wrong religion or denomination.
The religious themselves say it would be easier to be a nihilist.
Most people are going to eternal Hell if their religion is correct.

>And the smoke of their torment ascendeth up for ever and ever: and they have no rest day nor night, who worship the beast and his image, and whosoever receiveth the mark of his name.Revelation 14:11
>And besides all this, between us and you a great chasm has been set in place, so that those who want to go from here to you cannot, nor can anyone cross over from there to us.’ Luke 16:26

>The Son of Man will send out his angels, and they will weed out of his kingdom everything that causes sin and all who do evil.

>>2496694I did a reverse image search on yandex and, while I didn't get a decisive result, I got a lot of Turkish girls in the results. It was quite obvious she is of Mediterranean origin though. Still, I wouldn't be 100% sure she's from there, but it's a reasonable assessment.
In the meantime, check this other one out and I guess your gooning needs will be covered for a looooooooong time.
>>2489770Every time I hear someone trying to justify spiritualism to themselves I think about this Adorno quote.
<For, while people recognize their dependence and often enough venture the opinion that they are pawns, it is extremely difficult for them to face this dependence unmitigated. Society is made up of those whom it comprises. If the latter would fully admit their dependence on man-made conditions, they would somehow have to blame themselves, would have to recognize not only their impotence but also that they are the cause of this impotence and would have to take responsibilities which today are extremely hard to take. This may be one of the reasons why they like so much to project their dependence upon something else, be it a conspiracy of Wall Street bankers or the constellation of the stars. What drives people into the arms of the various kinds of “prophets of deceit” is not only their sense of dependence and their wish to attribute this dependence to some “higher” and ultimately more justifiable sources, but it is also their wish to reinforce their own dependence, not to have to take matters into their own hands- a wish, true, which is ultimately engendered by the pressure under which they live . . .It's time to grow up. Stop trying to get into astrology or creating bullshit ideology like Christian socialism, just accept what is in front of you.
