yes, let the aura of PLUR radiate your reality as long as you keep in TOUCH with your reality.
Anyone who believes in that plur shit is not in touch with reality. It's just not a realistic way to live, unless you guys are living on a different planet than the rest of us. Maybe I'm jaded, but I'm also a realist.

god i hate this shit.. but ill give a stab at it anyhow...
peace, love, unity, and respect. its a fucking GOOD concept. i follow it 100%. i dont ever say the words "plur" seriously because its pretty lame, and the ideals have been killed out.
but seriously, whats wrong with it? is it wrong to be peaceful, be able to love, and respect eachother? generally, im a really nice person, i dont let people walk all over me, but im not an asshole. i feel that ive lived the ideals of "plur" faar before i even knew what plur was.
it doesnt mean i live in a dream land, it has nothing at all to do with ecstacy or raves.. it just means im not an asshole. im realistic, if people dont show me the same respect i give them, chances are shits not gonna go well.
its just too bad the whole "plur" thing has turned into a fluffly ball of etarded candykid bullshit.
but seriously, whats wrong with it?
It doesn't work in the real world.
It's a good concept, yeah...but then again, so was communism.

Peace, love, unity, and respect not working in this world? It works in my world. If you treat others as you would like to be treated, it all works. If that means you occasionally get screwed by the haters in the world, then so be it. I just choose to build my world around those that hold those values as close to their hearts as I do. All others are not welcome in my world. If the people in your world are not treating you with peace, love, unity, and respect, then change your world. Make new friends, find another job, whatever it takes. Life is too short to be living in a world full of haters.
Thank you for proving my point. I originally said:

Im talking about the REAL WORLD. In your words, you seem to be living in your own little world. The word reality pertains to life in the real world, not "your world". Keep going around thinking that if you treat people with "plur" and they will treat you the same, and see how far it gets you. Nowhere. Oh wait, I forgot...you don't live in our world, you live in "your world".
Im not saying you shouldn't be nice to people, but I want to gouge peoples eyes out with a rusty screwdriver when they come around talking that "PLUR" shit.

In your reality (which you've arrogantly reffered to as "our" world) you think otherwise, that treating people in a compassionate way is useless and cannot get you anywhere.
You'll notice that you both live in the same world, but have different perceptions on how it should be dealt with. Every person in the world has a different perception of reality, that's what creates "identity", don't be stupid in thinking that your perception of reality is how everyone else perceives it.
Hassling someone just because they perceive reality in a different (and harmless) way does nothing but highlight your own flaws.
There is only one reality and that is R-E-A-L-I-T-Y. Things are what they are, no matter how each individual perceives it. Someone who is color blind might "perceive" the something red as brown or green, but the object is still red. Excuse me for seeing things the way they really are. And the last time I checked, me all do live on the same planet, so saying "our world" is not an arrogant statement in any way. I never said you shouldn't be compassionate towards those who deserve it, but making a lifestyle out of "plur" and expecting it in return is not realistic because we do not live in a peaceful, loving, united, and respectful world. But I'll shut up now. Go ahead and live your life the way you want, and I will continue to live by the concepts of realism.

Eastern mysticism, western philosophy and even quantum physics has never proven this, so I'm interested in how you reached this conclusion. And no, I'm not taking the piss, I'm genuinely interested.
Crimson Cloud,
You remind me of a very jaded person I once knew called "my dad". A prick. Very close-minded. A true "man" in every sense of the word.
That made me laugh, and I needed a good laugh so thanks. Yes I'm jaded, and yes I'm a prick, but that's besides the point. I'm not close-minded at all though. I'm actually pretty open-minded, but not so much as to question reality. Some of you are living in a fantasy world, and all of you completely missed my point.
Don't bother responding, I really don't care what you have to say at this point and I'm not coming back to this topic. (...how close-minded of me )
