  1. Past hour
  2. It doesn't really matter how many times it's said, right? I literally fell into and believed this fantasy, and I got myself out of it. You mislead people. I wrote about this trap years ago - of denigrating awakening to an experience. Let me ask you: were you awakened prior to having gone down this road with the drugs? Or, like many here, you followed that because you thought they would awaken you? Extremely crucial point, do not overlook it! Nobody said that about enlightenment. But it's clear you're talking about chemically-induced states, like with mickey mouse. Whatever name is given, the truth is not a function of the brain. I've personally derived this insight. But for some reason, you keep being too arrogant to be willing to entertain these points.
  3. That’s because he’s compensating not his default tendency. He often discusses how his lack of boundaries caused chaos and now he has a new ideology regarding asserting boundaries. example here at 1 hour He also doesn’t listen but that’s different, that’s likely a symptom of autism which causes him to be in his own world and monologue. I saw him take questions from students before and just ignore what they asked and talk about something else. But it wasn’t out of a desire for control. Julien describes it here:
  4. Including methods.
  5. This is an interesting possibility. It's hard to know how different Owen is in private cause we only see him touring. Maybe he has this facade when speaking. I don't know.
  6. Locking this because I don't see the point of this thread. Mods are never going away here.
  7. True!
  8. I agree with everything except this part. Owen clearly has issues with supplicating to women. He is a major softy at heart. That's why he popularizes terms such as Poison Dripping and is so concerned with frame control and all that shit. Because his natural self is so soft to the point where the women he dates typically step all over him. The persona he projects in his videos is him over correcting to those past experiences.
  9. True. I made an assumption. It's possible it is not correct. On the other hand...
  10. I think it’s more about not knowing what we think we know, because we are limited relative temporal illusory beings. Knowledge is framed by history, language, and physiology, often making it impossible to confirm if it accurately represents reality. Knowledge can only point to the illusory nature of reality. We’re not any different to birds singing.

    The thing is that you don’t know whether he needs it. He’s already said no, but people love to think they know what’s best for someone else and insist on it. Love is also respecting one’s will and choices. Even if you personally would do things differently. I called it child-parent, but it’s about perceived authority in general. You are no stranger to this dynamic. We as Mods experience it at times towards us.
  12. Fuck God, we don’t need him
  13. We're really missing out by discarding religion instead of building better ones. We're equating religion with dogma, which it doesn't have to be. Religion can be conscious, playful & creative. Isolation is a tool of the devil. But so is group-think. You can't escape it by just avoiding some aspect of reality. We have this whole beautiful playground on Earth and decide to play death instead.

  16. I don't get the sense at all that Owen doesn't rule with an iron fist. He even displays that in this talk with his students. Owen needs everything done his way. That's the vibe I get off him. It's hard for me to imagine him actually listening to a woman and doing what she wants.

    Good luck with that
  18. Autonomy of mind is self-esteem.
  19. That was likely because of the ceo Nick Kho who was notorious for being cheap and ruling with an iron fist. Owen was the opposite and had few boundaries, poor organization and a lot of chaos.
  20. Okay , that makes sense as a personal advice, but i dont see how that responds to this thread. This is the question - If you were the owner of this forum ,then what would you do with respect moderation (if anything) and why would you do that?
  21. God will have to re-unite itself someday and then YOU/WE'll remember EVERYTHING, all life experiences get consolidated in THE ONE. It's clear why the ego-mind doesn't necessarily want that so badly. But Love does.
  22. Today
  23. @OBEler Cool, thanks for sharing.
  24. @James123 what is a moderator in your words? Do you think it is a spiritual leader of some sort? Just to be clear, that is certainly not how I define it. I could genuinely be here just for the personal development side of Actualized, as a user. So you could be projecting your ideas of 'shoulds' onto me. The word pussy is your word not mine.
  25. I am telling, surrender, that's all. Path is always one. If you read the word pussy, and this is bad, this is an interpretation. However, you deeply see what is the word of pussy, therefore who is integrating, you never there.
  26. @James123 she's saying it's double standards . You have to apply the nondoership thing to others as well . Its not just your body that has no self inside of it.. but everyone are equally empty shelves.
  27. @Terell Kirby yes, Judd Trump is the goat
