He's a very spiritually advanced guy and his methods have value. He is genuine. But these Hindu yogis love to tell tall tales. None of them are invincible. Their life hangs by a thread, just like all of us. Their health could crash any day. The only problem is when you adopt fantasies about how awakening will give you superpowers. Just do your yoga without the Hindu superpower tall tales.

I'm unsure whether he can declare bankruptcy and keep holding his properties. I'm sure he'll find some loopholes like giving the properties to his sons. It's questionable whether he personally holds any property at all. It might all be shell companies. His wealth is all a house of cards anyway. -
People will use life purpose to avoid doing a serious inquiry into consciousness. (And I'm not saying Sadhguru did that. But I am saying Owen did that). Obviously Owen is free to live out his life playing in Maya if he so wishes. I just hoped he was more intelligent than that. Live your life however you want. But if you want serious consciousness then that requires deconstructing certain illusions. This doesn't mean life purpose is wrong, but you will want to become conscious of its true nature and how it is part of your survival game. Most people are very deeply stuck playing in Maya. Like Elon Musk and all the other billionaires. And that's what Owen is chasing. Sadhguru is doing something more advanced.

I'm not going to engage in that. Sadhguru can tell you tall tales all day long. I'm not going to bother taking them seriously because this stuff is impossible to verify unless you achieve those abilities yourself. If you want to pursue those abilities, go ahead. But in the end you might discover that you wasted 10 years of your life chasing a Hindu tall tale.

But not for massive profit. I can't buy a porno and start reselling it to you guys as part of Leo's Ultimate Porno Collection. Believe me, if I could I would. That's really scummy though. Most people can't afford to sue a trillion dollar company. All these AIs will require a YouTube-like take-down form.

Either high tolerance or weak mushrooms. 2 grams can be strong. Enough to warp your whole reality. What you are describing would be like what 0.1 grams would do to me.

Have fun with your Donald Trump porn.

He'll just declare bankruptcy. -
For paywalled stuff, I would say it is. One aspect of Fair Use doctrine is that you can't use someone's work to profitably compete with and replace their work. The New York Times is suing OpenAI for this very thing. We'll see how that plays out. OpenAI scraped their paywalled articles. That's BS. It is not easy to get your content removed from these AIs.

No. You have invented various kinds of spiritual fantasies by misinterpreting things he said and making all sorts of assumptions. And then some fraction of what he says is Hindu BS.
-
Watch out for spiritual fantasies.
-
This shows the fantasies you guys have about this work. There should be nothing shocking about this.
-
No amount of spiritual practice will make you free from your genetics and chemistry.
-
I never said otherwise.
-
I'm pointing out BS.
-
And Hitler's life purpose was to exterminate the Jews. So what?
-
BS. These are clever excuses from facing Truth. The entire notion of socializing is BS. How much fucking socializing will ever be enough for him?
-
This is BS.
-
Sounds like a great fucking excuse not to sit down and face the agony of being still. Owen is an egomaniac, addicted to chasing ambition like a squirrel on crack. It's not because he needs material success, it's because he is addicted to meaning and purpose. And these things are illusions. Which is why he keeps running, like a rat in a wheel.
-
It's not. I don't work round the clock nor do I demand that of anyone I work with. And for free. That would be unethical. His health and happiness. This is a dangerous idea to implant into the minds of his followers. I know. That only strengthens my point. Just because he survived that does not make it right. Because he's setting a bad example of work-life balance. I say it of Elon Musk so I must say it of Sadhguru too. If you actually loved Sadhguru you would not want him working himself into ill health.
-
Again, so what? There is no good reason for Sadhguru to work these people to death along with him. When someone works more than 8hrs per day for free, that's not "voulenteering" anymore, that's exploitation. That's disingenious spiritual horseshit. If you're so spiritual, start by paying people for their labor rather than exploiting their admiration of you. This is legit cult behavior. Exactly what Scientology does. No one is going to awaken working 8hr+ a day for Sadhguru. If Sadhguru wants to be a workaholic that's his business. But it's shameful to then goad your followers into that same lifestyle.
-
Religious people have spiritual experiences too. So what? I am not arguing that yoga doesn't work.
-
That's called religion. Islam has 1 billion followers. So what? Sadhguru is exploiting those people for free labor. Classic cult tactic. If their labor is so important, how about paying them?
