These topics are too important not to have on Youtube. The politics found on YT is largely so terrible. What is the point of talking about conscious politics if no one hears about it?

User @now is forever has been repremanded and will likely end up banned. Such devilry should really not exist among self-actualizers. Sigh...

Enough of your libertarian foolishness. You clearly don't understand or appreciate how society works. You are defending an ideological position. Don't bother denying it, I spotted you from day 1. You are very confused indeed. Sounds like you are stage Blue, which is roughly the center of gravity of India. Minority rights are very important. Consider the possibility that you are Muslim. Only if you have a brain injury or a sick sense of humor. To see if you guys are mature enough to handle it. Gotta test the waters because this stuff is very dangerous. It will trigger a lot of egos because people get really attached to their positions and refuse to hear meta points. (See guy above with his anarcho-libertarian position.)

How do you know that??? How many animals sex lives have you studied? There really is no difference between you and whatever animal. Your sex life just seems much harder because it's so personal for you. But such is the case for everyone. If you congregate with females eventually one will have sex with you. If you spend all your time sitting at home, then yeah, sex cannot ever happen. But that's your own lifestyle choice.

Wild boars are no joke. They will fuck you up. Careful tripping outdoors. Only for expert psychonauts.

Awesome report! Thanks for sharing. Makes me wanna try it if I wasn't so in love with 5-MeO-DMT

Somewhat, but the foundations of good politics and good government are universal.

That's off topic for this thread. There are no easy answers here. That's mostly a function of how modern society is structured. If you lived in a tribe in the Amazon 50,000 years ago, sex would be a lot easier. People today are very socially alienated despite living in giant cities. That's simply not true. Have you not seen nature documentaries of how hard animals must fight to find a mate? Sometimes they fight to the death for it. Mating is brutal because it's so central to survival. This brutality is precisely what selects for higher quality offspring and drives evolution. The weak are weeded out for the benefit of the next generation. Be careful with such incel victim narratives. Sex is not to be taken for granted. It's a serious thing, a matter of life and death in the animal kingdom. As a human you actually have a lot more control over your mating possibilities than almost any other animal. You can even buy sex toys, prostitutes, wives, etc. Hell, you could organize an orgy! The only limit is your resourcefulness and drive. If you really wanted to you could design a life where you have sex with a new person every single day until your dick falls off.

That only worsens the problem. That is like a doctor seeing a broken leg and checking out for lunch. Just because a task is dirty does not mean it's avoidable. Toilets still need cleaning, and they can be cleaned better.

Humans are simply not a monogamous species like some other species. We like to sleep around and we get bored with each other. For some other species that's not the case. At the same time we're not fully polyamorous either. We're stuck in a sort of limbo between the two.

@SriBhagwanYogi That's the devil escaping your body The body holds many energetic blockages. It varies greatly from person to person and your life history.

There is much more to successful relationships than just not cheating. Many times people simply grow apart. And just because two people never cheated does not at all mean the relationship is a success. Relationships are very, very, very tricky. They make enlightenment look easy.

Don't underestimate them. Ignorance tends to be aggressive

RSD has been talking about Ekhart Tolle for like 10 years, LOL.

Life is a can of worms. Then you die.

@StarStruck Love is an Absolute. It is a feature of Absolute Consciousness. This won't make sense without a deep awakening to what metaphysical Love is. It's a hell of an awakening. We are not talking about love as the opposite of hate, or romantic love here, but Absolute Love -- the very being of God. Try some psychedelic and see for yourself what Love really is.

@Beeman Be here to learn. Empty your cup.

In other words, it doesn't work in most cases. LOL

@Raf_vd If you are conflicted about which path to take, you can take a psychedelic and ask it, "Which path is best for me?" and it will likely give you good answer. But this will only be effective if you're already familiar with many of the paths. It won't work so well if you only know a few paths, as your choices will be limited. It's a good idea to study the pros and cons of various paths. Then decide. Most people just stumble into one path randomly by accident. They don't shop around.

Not so much a belief as a realistic observation of human sexual behavior. I did not say you are doomed to failure. I just wouldn't bet my money on you succeeding

That's a dangerous assumption. Because I have awoken many times. That's a very dangerous idea which is precisely what I'm trying to help you to question. I'd like you to start imagining that even at high levels of consciousness those actions can happen. Because factually they DO! As you can clearly see throughout history. To define enlightenment as the absence of immoral action is very problematic. That's not what enlightenment is. I can't tell you how I know the things I know because what we're talking about here is too deep to explain in a simple linear sequence of words. Entire books would have to be written about it, and still most people reading them would not be able to understand it because they lack the requisite experience. As someone who studies this stuff professionally, I'm here to give you guidance about things you probably have never deeply studied or have direct experience of. That's the whole point of a good teacher, to show you things you aren't yet aware of. This does not make the teacher infallible, and yet he must still teach. So here we are. Make of it what you will.

Yes, that's very common and totally expected. Stage Blue represses sexuality a lot. Including of course their own homosexual impulses, which are denied so deeply they turn into violent homophobia. Yes, of course, but only at very advanced levels of this work. It's not for noobs.

Monogamy doesn't really work. It fails more than it succeeds. This is by design. It's supposed to "fail". IF true, then I agree all of that is problematic. Enlightenment does not mean what you think it means. It prescribes no specific ways of behavior. Enlightenment is realization of one's true nature. What one does afterwards is a whole nother matter. Survival needs are still operative. I sense that you are taking a judgmental attitude on this whole topic. This clouds your understanding of enlightenment. If a guy is conscious of his true nature but sexually abuses his students, I have no problem calling him enlightened because enlightenment is a very specific thing which does not hinge on moral actions. You must be careful not to equate enlightenment with some idealized notion of being Christ-like. Also keep in mind there are many degrees of enlightenment, many degrees of embodiment of it, and many stages & lines of development which are all independent of enlightenment. This is a very complex topic which is understood by very few spiritual teachers.

This is why in many of the best spiritual communities/ashrams/monasteries sex is simply not allowed and vows of celibacy are taken. Of course that still doesn't fully resolve the problem as sexuality is too strong a force to simply be suppressed. Sexual tension will still run high and it can get expressed in very creative ways. Buddhist monks commonly have sex with each other by rubbing their genitals between the other's legs. Technically it ain't "sex". Lol You have to really appreciate how powerful of a force the sex drive is. It's basically impossible to just drop it. And sex leads to lots of drama and ego games. I would never expect any teacher or human being to be "above it". Of course there are healthy and unhealthy ways of expressing it.

No, I mostly mean just sleeping with lots of people without going exclusive with any one. Abuse of power is a very relative thing and difficult to adjudicate. You'd have to be more specific by what that actually means. Yes, I suspect he does use his fame/status to help his own survival, which you could call an abuse of power. But then again, this is what survival is all about. This is how most people live. Famous people often use their fame to get easy sex. I'm not sure why there would be prostitution or even if this activity is a crime in his country. You'd have to specify what prostitution means in his case. Is he forcing women to have sex for money? Is he paying women to have sex with him? That seems farfetched. If he is, obviously that's a problem. Because it's clear he has some degree of enlightenment. What degree is hard to say. Probably not the highest degree. You can't really teach the things he's teaching without some degree of enlightenment. It's important not to conflate enlightenment with moral perfection. These are very distinct things.
