There's no need to guess. We'll see what the polls say a month before the election. There's plenty of time until then for things to move around. It's gonna be close either way I think.

1) You are not properly understanding those teachers and teachings. 2) Understanding is not just conceptual, it comes with a change in your state of consciousness. How can you be awake and not understand the ultimate nature of reality? The two go hand in hand. To realize God is to understand the ultimate nature of existence. Consciousness has the ability to comprehend itself. When this comprehension rises high enough it becomes awakening. Yes it can, by itself becoming infinite. Your finite mind is just infinite mind which is half asleep. Awakening turns finite mind into infinite mind. You will still exist and your mind will still exist. There's a long way to go before death. There are many degrees of self-comprehension and you don't need the highest degree to experience awakening. -

Makes no difference. Keep going out and learning to socialize.

It's right for you if you love understanding reality. -

Suit yourself. I will not make any effort to convince you. -

@Water by the River The issue with everything you said is that it admits that there exists consciousness higher than your own. Which most enlightened folk and nondualists would like to deny. So you are trying to have it both ways. When I claim higher consciousness, you ridicule and deny it. But when I corner you about why you cannot walk through a brick wall, you tell tall-tales of higher Buddhas and astral deities in other dimensions. And you plead human finitude. You justify your limited human dream as being necessary and enjoying it. But when I speak of pursing and enjoying higher consciousness you dismiss and ridicule it as something indulgent or misguided. So all this means that you are an enlightened bullshitter. Your spiritual bullshit is precisely designed to prevent higher consciousness. And THAT is the reason why I teach in the manner that I teach. I do not care about tales of astral realms. I asked you why you cannot walk through a brick wall on Earth. And the only plausible answer is: because you lack consciousness. If enlightened people would just admit that they occupy a low state of rat consciousness then I would never say a single bad thing against them. But that is the last thing they want to admit. So here we are. I hope now everyone is crystal clear on this matter. I will not be wasting any more of my time explaining myself to you. -
The value of contemplation is to get your mind to think for itself. AI could help with that, but more likely you are gonna turn it into a crutch which will short-curcuit your own independent thinking. Before you contemplate, try visualizing yourself entering a positive and empowering state. I will release a course soon that will teach you how to do this.

Yes, of course. I even know a few such people. Something like that. -
Just use a fuckin scoop.

Because all limits are imaginary. -

You said so many wrong things there that I will bother to correct them. -
Leo Gura replied to Water by the River's topic in Spirituality, Consciousness, Awakening, Mysticism, Meditation, God
I am not claiming I can. I am claiming it should be possible with sufficient consciousness. -
Leo Gura replied to Water by the River's topic in Spirituality, Consciousness, Awakening, Mysticism, Meditation, God
That's a cute story. But is it really true? -
@Princess Arabia I hope you like alien crocodile pizza

@bambi I've had difficult trips. Just because you don't consider my trips difficult is not my problem.

Why? Why aren't enlightend people omnipotent? Consciousness is omnipotence. -
Leo Gura replied to Water by the River's topic in Spirituality, Consciousness, Awakening, Mysticism, Meditation, God
Of course I know about all that. You are not telling me anything new. I have never claimed to be the first one to talk about astral realms. I don't even talk about them. But the question still stands: You regard yourself as enlightened. Why can't you walk through a brick wall? - - - - You keep regrading the things I say as tangential to consciousness, the exploration of astral realms and illusions. But that has never been what I talk about. All of my work is focused squarely on comprehension of pure Consciousness. My goal is to understand Consciousness so deeply that I could walk through a brick wall, which your enlightened smartass cannot. -
Leo Gura replied to Water by the River's topic in Spirituality, Consciousness, Awakening, Mysticism, Meditation, God
Yes, I agree. But it should be possible to selectively undream some stuff. -
@LoneWonderer You got emotional baggage to clear out before you are free to access serious metaphysical matters. Keep clearing out all the human crap and slowly raising the dose.

I love the taste of dark chocolate so it is acceptable within reason and assuming you will be doing heavy metal detox throughout your life.

No. Becoming more social is more important. Depends on your goals and priorities. If your goal is to get laid, yes. That situation is shit. Move.

I believe that if one became super-humanly conscious one could walk through a brick wall. But no human is anywhere close to that level of consciousness. Which is one of the reasons why I say that enlightenment is low consciousness. If enlightennent was high consciousness then enlightened people should be able to walk through brick walls, but they can't. What's unique about my explanations of Consciousness is that I can explain why humans cannot walk through brick walls and also how they could. No nondual person has a good answer for this. Because they don't actually understand how consciousness works. -
Yes. It is tautological. Whatever happens is what must have happened, even if you change it, then that must have happened. In this way truth is inescapable. Because any attempt to escape truth is itself a part of truth.
