  1. Past hour
  2. The recent blog post about sublimation of survival was interesting. A couple questions: Is going to a party always survival? If you're going just for pure enjoyment and flow state, is that still carefully concealed survival? Similarly, I agree that you'll have to do some amount of survival in life if you want to survive. But does every individual thing you do have to be survival? For example, things like playing a video game, playing an instrument, dancing, meditating, or contemplating. Or maybe it's more the intent behind the activity that matters? @Leo Gura
  3. It’s more like asking, ‘Why is it impossible for an ice cream not to be made out of ice, water, milk, and flavor?’ When you ask, ‘Why is it impossible for God not to have others?’ it’s not that it couldn’t happen, it’s that then it wouldn’t be God by definition (its essence, nature). Or saying: ‘Why is it impossible for a cloud not to be in the sky and made of water vapor and tiny water droplets or ice crystals?’ I could imagine a cloud that’s as hard as a rock, sitting on the ground and made of stone!’ That’s fine, you can do that, but that wouldn’t be a cloud; it would be a rock by any common definition.

  5. Oh man. Your mind will be blown.
  6. I’ve worked on it for a years on and off already! But thank you!
  7. You’re moving from ‘this experience ends’ to ‘there must be others,’ and I’m not sure that follows logically.
  8. 1 to 2 years is outstanding.. You're killing it.
  9. The most direct way is psychedelic. You need a Love Awakening. It's not an conceptual thing. You need to discover LOVE. Take a psychedelic and ask it to show you what Love is. I can explain it logically but that's not good enough for you to get it. You are not going to feel love constantly, always. Feelings never last. Love is an Awakening. It needs to had just like an ego-death or enlightenment.
  10. This is a Buddhist poem, or text. I don't like it, a lot of identification and projection, ideas that they want to put in the reader's mind. But when i read it first time I thought it was very deep. The difference lies in overlooking certain things that grate. I am the master, pure and total consciousness, from which everything manifests. Pure and total consciousness is the supreme source; it has created the Buddhas of the three times. From it have arisen the beings of the three worlds and all that is animate and inanimate in the universe. Pure and total consciousness has created everything and has created nothing. It has created everything because it has created its own nature, pure and total. It has created nothing because within it there is no need to create. When my nature is not understood, and the phenomena that manifest from me become objects of judgment, desire and attachment give rise to the creation of a concrete vision—impermanent and destined to vanish like a magical appearance—and one becomes like a blind person who does not know what is happening. As I transcend all affirmations and negations, I am beyond all phenomena. As there is no object that is not myself, I am beyond meditating on any view. As there is nothing to maintain apart from me, I am beyond the commitment of observing. As there is nothing to seek other than myself, I am beyond obtaining the capacity for spiritual action. As there is no place outside of me, I am beyond any level of realization to be surpassed. As I have never encountered obstacles, I am beyond everything as self-arising wisdom. As I am the ultimate unborn nature, I am beyond everything as the final subtle true nature. I am called “the perfect condition” because everything is contained within me. I am called “the source” because the master, the teaching, and the disciples arise from my three natures. I am the essence of all phenomena; nothing exists that is not my essence. The masters of the three dimensions are my essence. The Buddhas of the three times are my essence. The Bodhisattvas are my essence. The four types of yogis are my essence. The three worlds—of desire, of form, and of formlessness—are my manifestation. The five great elements are my essence. The six classes of beings are my essence. All that is inanimate is my essence. All that lives is my essence. All habitats and the beings that dwell within them are my essence. Nothing exists that is not my essence, because I am the universal root: there is nothing that is not contained within me. The unborn, the wonder of birth, and the manifestation of energy are the three aspects of the three masters: this is their condition. As the three times—past, present, and future—reside exclusively in me, all Buddhas are in the same condition: this too is my essence. As I transcend the dualism of subject and object, like space I am all-pervading, and I constitute the fundamental substance of all phenomena. My essence is pure and total consciousness; I, who am the source, abide in the single state, and in this same authentic condition are the practitioners of the “four yogas.” Recognize my nature, the supreme source that is pure and total consciousness. Teach that all phenomena of existence are only me. If you transmit my teaching, all your disciples will realize my nature and become this very same nature. If my nature were to reveal itself compassionately to the beings of the three worlds that have arisen from me… Thus I, the supreme source, reveal my nature by showing it to myself. Nothing other than this exists. None of the Buddhas has ever received a teaching higher than this from me, the source. Apart from this condition of equality beyond concepts, I myself—the supreme source from which everything arises—have absolutely nothing to show to myself. Listen! As all of you are created by me, you beings of the three worlds are my children, equal to me, the supreme source. You are me, inseparable from me. Thus I manifest to you, and through the five masters of the natures I teach the single state of the five essences (the elements). I am the single state—I, the supreme source. You too are that; be certain of this.
  11. Probably this guy
  12. Thank you Leo, means a lot to have you personally say that. It’s been quite a journey from the unconscious, selfish devil I was in my younger years. Even in 2020, when I was 25 and just re-bumped into your content again (previous time was squirting video — imagine the shock in my face tho when I saw you talking about God!), I was deeply delusional and lost in non-dual brainwashing. And the worst part was that I truly believed I had it all figured out! God is truly genius for inventing non-duality! I can confidently say that this development of mine would not have been possible without your work, and I am just getting started. Wait till I master my survival and get my hands on psychedelics! I will be writing the most profound and beautiful trip reports. Perhaps you will send me off into the journey with your retreat. That would be quite romantic. For now, good night ya’ll. I’ll try to catch up with ya tomorrow evening after work ❤️
  13. 100% Sex is a hard thing to say no, especially as a man.
  14. This forum is like a conversation with me at the bar. This forum is not my formal work. It's where I hang out after work. If you met me at a coffee shop, this is how I would talk. It's obviously not like formal intellectual writing or lecture. The blog is more formal. The videos are more formal than the blog. And a book is more formal than everything.
  15. Leo

    you guys shall stop taking words at face value and look at how people acts. everyone can claim humbleness and be full of shit. and everyone could claim being the best fucking god just to poke your donkeys into awakening.
  16. The same way you’d quit anything. By getting lost in the weeds of something else.
  17. Haha. I do work my ass off tho. I am looking to add some more hours to my already brutal work hours to speed up my process to financial freedom, so I can finally go hard into starting my psychedelics and serious meditative practices journey. At this rate, I should be able to make it in 1-2 years. Perhaps an opportunity arises and I can do it faster but I will be happy with that timeline.
  18. @Sempiternity the reason you "the ego " can't understand it is because Love is when you totally let go and surrender everything. Surrender your life .when I say "Surrender everything " I mean Surrender everything. Not just Surrender your goals and dreams ..Surrender your home ..Surrender your family ..Surrender your body ..leave your home and live in a cave not knowing how are you going to get food today . Stop acting like you are worth a fart or you know anything or that anything matters or that you can't just die now and face what you don't want to face..death . If your body were thrown in hell you will be in pain if you identify with the Body. But if you identify with the body and the hell then there is no problem. You care about things because your human self is limited .God is unlimited and unconditional..he doesn't care about anything. That's what love .Leo doesn't embody Love because he is still alive and eats and sleeps and makes money and talk. Love is death of you . You get it now why you "the ego " can't get it ?
  19. Is that a python in your pocket or are you just happy to see me?
  20. I have a few experiences on N,N DMT (but taken orally) I wrote up my first awakening here it’s funny because reading this again all these years on, I start to join the dots of what I was experiencing but didn’t fully understand at the time. For example I mention ‘Russian dolls, fractals, tesseracts’ I was seeing the infinite nature of consciousness but I only recognise it now re-reading it with more experience
  21. This is probably the single best thing I’ve ever done to improve my social skills. Any kind of solo travel is just amazing, but I agree Asia is probably the best place to start with. Possibly the only downside to using solo travel to develop social skills is that you’re often not spending enough time with people to develop super deep friendships. The longest I spent with one group was 3 week, and we’ll likely be lifelong friends, but it’s not the same kind of friendship you can develop with somebody who lives in your country and who you get to know for years. Aside from that it’s amazing for getting over the fear of meeting new people without having to resort to something like pickup
  22. Please may someone remind me of the political theorist that Leo on his blog? Was some left wing dude
  23. Because everything that appears is change, as we can see, then at the end this structure of experience will dissapear, same than everything that appears.
  24. Owen demonstrates it perfectly in the video. Watch it again. Consider an animal like a lion. The lion is 100% in its own frame. Because the lion cannot even think what you think of it. The lion never feels insecure about itself. It never tries to look cool. A lion can take a shit and not care if you are watching.
  25. Quite rarely. It would be a lot worse if I was more attractive.
