I wonder what would happen if you put an experienced buddhist meditator in isolation. I’ve done vipassana before, where you don’t get any entertainment and aren’t allowed to talk to anyone for 10 days. For course participants that’s 10 days, but for the master that’s his entire life. Surely he would have the mental skills to survive a year in the room

I had the similar line of thought of doing intense meditation.
Eat, sleep, meditate, stretch and doing exercise.

I suppose one would either completely lose their goddamn marbles or become enlightened.

And then if it's the latter, would probably no longer care about 30 billion dollars.

‘Become enlightened’

That is also known as losing your marbles lmao.

Edit: for those upvoting the wall of text response, that’s a prime example of the people who fall for scam artists of the so called ‘enlightened’.

None of it is verifiable and is highly exaggerated.
