I have progressive views, but my progressivism is nothing ideological like TYT or the rest of their ilk. I have many criticisms of the far left and my politics is reasonable, balanced, and grounded in pragmatics. I don't support cancel culture other than canceling people like Alex Jones, Trump, and Tate for violating clear terms of service. -
Psychedelics are a powerful tool which could easily be abused. If you use them intelligently they will revolutionize your life. That's really all there is so say on this topic. Do what you will.

His self-help advice is solid. It's the poltics he infuses it with that's cringey.

Yeah, that's the classic kind of gaslighting that very immature and mentally ill people love to engage in. She's toxic. You should try to stay away from her because it's not going to work out well. It's just gonna spiral more and more into toxicity. She needs to get own mind strightened out that you cannot do that for her.

My work is very independent of memes, fads, and group-think. I don't pander to that stuff. Of course there's some group-think on this forum but that's quite different from the kind of pandering that Tate and Tucker do. If you ever saw a forum full of Tate or Tucker fans it would be so monstrous that you would wanna vomit. -

Maybe "real life" is just escapism from drugs

I think they fit him great. He started Red then moved into Blue/Orange, crusading against Green. None of these right-wingers are doing anything original with their minds. It's all well-known territory. They are predictable like a bad Hollywood movie. None of these people is doing any serious intellectual work, they are just riding on memes, fads, and group-think. -

Oh, I'm pretty sure it will. If there's one thing I know it's that GOD is addicted to dreaming. But you shouldn't feel like you have to dream that if you don't want to. -

I cannot be sure since I don't know anyone who has done it but me. And my path involved 10 years of nonduality and Buddhist teachings. You can always transcend the human spirituality as long as you have the desire to do so and you don't convince yourself that you're "done". So I'd say there's no rush. Give yourself a good 5-10 years of human spirituality. Be realistic with yourself. -

1) There is a lot of value in those books just in so far as building up a good life goes. It's a good foundation. You don't wanna be spiritually illiterate. 2) The tantra book is quite technical. Unless you are gonna make tantra your path you don't need to read the whole thing. Skim it for the general nuggets of wisdom. 3) A lot of those books just contain solid wisdom that will be good for you to have. 4) When I am harsh on spirituality is it within the very narrow context of trying to help adavnced people reach the crazy peak stages. So don't get down and don't take me too seriously unless you are really aimimg for those peaks. -

That's one perspective. Perhaps an even deeper perspective is just to embrace the entire gamut of consciousness and don't try to escape or avoid any of it. If there is a Hell, why aren't you excited to go there just for the experience? That's sorta GOD's attitude about all this. Awakening is Good but dreaming is also Good. -

The lines can get very blurry there, so yeah. -

No. It would not look anything special. -
Leo Gura replied to Slipper's topic in Spirituality, Consciousness, Awakening, Mysticism, Meditation, God
Well, it's hard to explain. What is the consciousness of a rat? What is the consciousness of a human? What is the consciousness of an advanced alien species that has a brain 20x the size of a human? What kind of mind would make the human mind seem as crude as a chimpanzee seems to us? Well, my own mind has accessed that level. So I know what it's like. But I cannot explain it to you any more than you can explain to a chimpanzee what it's like to do trigonometry. -

Bashar is the best example of channeling. There it is. You can watch it live in real-time. -
Leo Gura replied to Someone here's topic in Spirituality, Consciousness, Awakening, Mysticism, Meditation, God
Consciousness can easily dream up a Hell full of demons and such. And its opposite. The problem is treating these as objective places outside your own MIND and not taking responsibility for dreaming them up. You don't go to Hell for immoral behavior, your MIND conjures it up. -
Somewhat but not seriously from what I can tell. My work takes years to digest so...

It's both. It's such a high degree that it opens up an entirely new domain of mind. It truly feels like you have been a caterpillar your whole life and then suddenly you evolved into a butterfly. And by caterpillar I mean all your prior human awakenings, enlightenments, trips, etc. It's in another league beyond those. It's truly fucking shocking. As shocking as Awakenings are, Alien Awakening is 10x more shocking than that. At this level you are in a domain that has never been written about or talked about by an spiritual teacher who I have ever read or seen. This possibility does not even exist for nondual teachers. It's something they've never even thought about once. And this will be completely obvious to you because anyone who experiences it would not be interested in teaching anything else. Nonduality becomes completely uninteresting once you discover alien consciousness. Because it's just 10x-100x more conscious. -

That is NOT how Tate and Tucker view the world. You give them too much credit. They treat the world in a Stage Blue way of good vs evil. And they believe themselves to be the good guys. Tucker Carlson supported the Iraq War. So for him to be crying about good and bad guys in war is a joke. Tucker Carlson believes Americans are good just for being Americans. -
Leo Gura replied to StarStruck's topic in Society, Politics, Government, Environment, Current Events
No I don't. I don't believe in evil at all. If a psychopath was at my door I would do whatever I needed to survive but that does not mean I would regard him as evil. You don't need to demonize someone in order to defend yourself from their attacks. -
Leo Gura replied to Slipper's topic in Spirituality, Consciousness, Awakening, Mysticism, Meditation, God
That's a pretty subjective distinction because you could draw the line in various places. There are many different kinds of Awakened states so I must use that word somewhat loosely. I am not refering to one specific state but a whole category of states. My gold standard is that if we're talkin serious consciousness, you must transcend from human into alien consciousness. There's more beyond that, but if you haven't reached that level then you're still operating at relatively low human levels. And if you reached that level of consciousness you would be talking about it and teaching it. Yet I see none of these people talking about it or guiding people to it. Rupert Spira teaches people "awakening is completely ordinary". I'm sorry but there is no way my Awakenings have been ordinary. I do not have words to express how anything but ordinary my Awakenings have been. So what is he teaching you? What is this ordinary awakening? How conscious can it be? If you just smoke some salvia there will be nothing ordinary about it. You will piss yourself in terror. Well, what is it that's so terifying? If your consciousness is maxed out then why is salvia terifying the shit out of you?
