One of the ways that we know that God exists is because we cannot replicate what God has done. We cannot create from nothing. -
Or they just want to go very fast from A to B. They have problems sitting still on a beach. "Underdeveloped" or perhaps tormented. I suspect some response to or unresolved childhood trauma is involved (they witnessed their father die in front of them when young, they were alone and started CPR, the paramedics said "you did well" yet their father never returned). It's something about coming very close to death when you're young that could make you very "death-like" (Shiva the Destroyer, "now we let this thing die and this other thing live", out with the old, in with the new, A -> B, throw away that, focus on this, shaping reality over engaging deeply with a single aspect, pruning, shaving off, rather than embracing, including, becoming rather than being, pursuit rather than presence).

Aha, I'm feeling something in that, thanks ! -
The guy created a narrative not following chronological order, and you can tell if you followed Leo enough time by the video segments he uses to tell his story lol.

If it’s already a possibility then it would never not be a possibility. And that knowledge would already be contained in the awareness that is already you. -

Even it’s the mystery unfolds and reveals itself, it would still remain a mystery beyond words. To even think or speak of the mystery would not touch the mystery, or be the mystery, for then it wouldn’t be the mystery. -

All I'm saying is you are hallucinating the burn mark. You are like the guy in the dream saying, "Look! This can't be a dream because I have a burn mark!"
-
You need at least 100 trips to realize that Leo is more awake than you. This is also ultimately what the Buddha realized under that tree. True story.
-
All I'm saying is: Is the burn mark on my skin not proof that reality didn't actually disappear while I was sleeping ?
-
So you imagine. The mistake you are making is that you are imagining imagination as some stupid, childish thing. Imagination is as precise and concrete as a bullet flying towards your head.

Are you saying alien intelligence is not a possibility ? -
An underdeveloped mind seeks control in order to feel safe. So it looks for control over trivial aspects of Reality like light switches or kitchen drawers.

If your Te is strong enough, all clutter is an insult to your existence. I know a person like this. No shoes visible in the house, they're inside a closet. No places for hanging your coat, they also go in the closet or on the stairway if you're a visitor. They throw away 800$ speakers without asking if somebody wants them. Generally just throw away things like there is no tomorrow (or past, they seem to keep only a bare minimum things from the past). "Nothing is better than an empty shed!" (direct translated quote). Everything in their house is super efficient: one switch turns on all the lights in the house, the kitchen is organized with extreme care for where things are located (dishes only travel a meter from the dishwasher to the dish drawer), "tall freezers with shelves", the kitchen drawers can be opened by pushing them rather than pulling them (and they have brakes when you close them so you can just send them and they're almost inaudible). "This thing is incredible" (talking about their central heating unit). All rooms, doors and walls are extremely well-insulated.
-
That is good enough. Don't overcomplicate a simple thing. 0.2ml is too much, reduce it to a few drops.
-
But Leo, if I close my eyes, I can still hear the traffic in the distance. When I close my ears, I can still feel the bed. When I remove my sense of touch, and fall asleep, if someone then burns my skin with a hot iron, the next morning there will be a burn mark.

@aurum If I want to have sex and my partner dosent want too, is it okay to get angry and force them to do it? Cause sex is a away of connecting?

Beautiful, thanks for sharing. -

@Inliytened1, @Razard86 Have you guys had a permanent cessation of the sense of a separate self yet ? I could be wrong, but sometimes I feel it's a bit sketchy talking about God realization, while simultaneously there's still a separate self going in the background. (Of course I'm learning from Leo and others also, otherwise I wouldn't be here. As far as no self goes, Jim is one of the best to listen to. As I said earlier, the teaching/message is lean because it's really effective that way, not because he hasn't gone deeper per say.) -
When you permit yourself to be duped by someone, that is the issue.

What if there’s nothing higher than human sentient awareness? And if there is, how would we ever get outside of this immediate awareness to know or see it exists? - Today

I understand the part about no self. But I'm just wondering if there aren't any higher dimensional principles/mechanisms functioning in the unseen realms that kind of help to translate nothing into something ? -

You can awaken real fast if you are observant. -
I get it. It's not even funny. This gets real.
