@Ether Point is to think everything through for yourself. My videos are only food for thought. -

Only a fool would do that. -

@MM1988 When you disrespect the substance -- as you did -- you get slapped upside the head. Spirituality is not a toy. -

So you're gonna base your entire life on something some random Uber passenger said? -

You might as well ask, "Why doesn't Mario just start the game standing on Bowser's corpse with the Princess giving him a blowjob?" -

@egoless You have been given the proper guidance. There is nothing else I can do to help you and I am not going to bend over backwards to countervail your ignorance for you. Discover for yourself what is true. If you ever do, you may hear my voice telling you, "I told you so." -

DO NOT EAT WILD MUSHROOMS!!! They could kill you. -
Leo Gura replied to lhamilt18's topic in Spirituality, Consciousness, Awakening, Mysticism, Meditation, God
@lhamilt18 The "physical body" is not yours. It is the universe's. It operates without you. You can die and the body will keep on living. In fact, that's already the case, you just haven't realized it yet. -

Careful what you wish for. Degrees of suffering are possible the likes of which your mind cannot conceive. -

Don't ask for verbal explanations. Take a psychedelic and you will know in about 30 minutes what would otherwise requires 5 years of verbal explanations. -

@Shakazulu The self-actualizing being prays for the courage to self-annihilate -
@Jedd Careful with tattoos. They're mostly just an ego thing. A self-image thing. A monkey-see-monkey-do thing. Learn to love yourself as you are first.

That's the paradox of self-transcendence. It requires focusing on yourself. But this here is a bit heartless. You want to be mindful of how your actions impact other people. Which is not to say you shouldn't end a relationship. Just that you shouldn't be so flippant about it. Your girlfriend has feelings for you, and you will be breaking here heart. Empathize with her suffering. That is the essence of spirituality.

Yes, I will release a video about this in the future. Ideals are a double-edged sword. They are necessary and at the same time create suffering and delusion. All ideals must ultimately be transcended, but not too soon. They are like training wheels.

@moon777light If you're labeling while doing it, yes. -
Leo Gura replied to Frylock's topic in Spirituality, Consciousness, Awakening, Mysticism, Meditation, God
Ego has co-opted the pleasure/pain mechanism. It uses those two signals to maintain its power and stay alive. "Pain" is just anything which violates the ego's self-defined boundary. So, of course the process of dissolving all boundaries is not likely to be labeled as "pleasant" by the ego. -
@mohdanas I don't want to freak you guys out.

I've fallen into the same trap. It's all part of the journey. There will be many traps along the way. Just keep improving gradually and in a few years your life will be going in cool new places. -
Leo Gura replied to Matt8800's topic in Spirituality, Consciousness, Awakening, Mysticism, Meditation, God
@Matt8800 Stop reading Yoganada and just do the practices. They are very direct and pragmatic, without any metaphysical mumbo-jumbo. The whole issue is, spirituality must be directly practiced, not talked about or debated. The more practice you do, the faster all of your questions and doubts will be addressed. And you will feel so much better. Read only as many books as you need to convince yourself to do serious practice. -

@GomeGabrielDavid What you think of as "experience" will get recontextualized as Infinity/God. It's a matter of context. -
Don't be so sure about that. It is possible to visit hell-realms, from my research. It's a pretty common shamanic journeying experience. Best not to listen to Popes about nonordinary states of consciousness. That is not their area of expertise. And many of them may end up in a hell-realm at some point if they ever recognize how much ignorance they've spread.

@UDT No, it is not an experience. It is Infinity. You will not understand unless you try it. There is no such thing as experience. There is only Infinity. Infinity is not a belief or an interpretation of an experience as you're assuming. -

No, that is INSIGHT. -
Leo Gura replied to SpaceCowboy's topic in Spirituality, Consciousness, Awakening, Mysticism, Meditation, God
@SpaceCowboy Psychedelics in general should be highly effective for treating depression. The problem is, people misuse psychedelics because they don't do the research and refuse to follow proper protocol. If one is already on the brink of suicide then trying any solution is better than doing nothing. -
Leo Gura replied to Timotheus's topic in Spirituality, Consciousness, Awakening, Mysticism, Meditation, God
@Outer All of those are facets of the Truth, but not the full-Monty. The full-Monty is God/Absolute Infinity itself. There really isn't consciousness or solipsism. There is only Infinity. Not inside of infinity, but Infinity itself. Everything is Infinity. This is a radical level of consciousness which is beyond what almost any human being has reached. You are not going to reach it without a superhuman effort, or 5-MeO-DMT. I would not trust most Zen monks to have reached this level of awakening. We are talking about inhuman levels of consciousness the likes of which cannot be imagined, understood, or spoken. Absolute Infinity solves absolutely all questions. But you will not understand until you drown in it. Sorry, I wish I could be more helpful, but there's just no way to communicate it. Mu
