You cannot define consciousness because anything you define it with is consciousness.

It's even funnier when it's not a joke

Breakup is a chemical state. You will not be able to just ignore it through meditation. You have to feel it and let the chemicals work through your body for a few weeks. There are also lessons there for you to learn. You will experience suffering any time you invest a lot of yourself into a thing and then lose it. Be careful using spirituality to avoid feeling feelings. Don't bypass the feeling of loss.

This is so silly. By definition, when they are alone you never see them. By your logic Sadhguru never takes a shit because you've never seen him shitting.

Push yourself into that awakened state when you are in those low-confidence situations. You won't be anywhere near perfect, but it should help. Keep doing it over and over again until you grow more spine.

I mentioned this point in my The Top Dangers Of Psychedelics video. Make sure you watch that one before you go tripping your balls off.

I'd guess it's a problem. Removing amalgams requires using a dentist who specializes in that. The DMSA will pull that mercury into your body. That's the risk.

I don't think an introvert can be in that state most of the time. 1) I completely turn off my mind. No thinking. No planning. 2) I consciously make myself very relaxed in my body and comfortable. Very present. 3) I force myself to approach lots of people and talk a lot. 4) Having fun friends around you helps A LOT. And then I talk shit with them. 5) Getting a few bad rejections helps build state by showing rejection doesn't matter. 6) I go to the dance floor and dance and enjoy the music. 7) Build momentum throughout the night by constantly approaching and talking. 8) DMT It's much harder because you won't have enough interactions and there is no music, no friends, etc. But during the day I find that state is much less important/needed. Just be chill and friendly and not anxious. If you go out a lot for night game, you can easily carry some of that momentum/state over into day game from the previous night out. This is usually what I did. Day game is actually a lot easier than night game because if the girl stops, you have her complete attention and you don't need to be some high-energy dancing monkey. You can just have a nice long calm conversation. You can't really have those kind of conversations in loud busy clubs. State is more important for loud, intimidating clubs where everyone but you is drinking and dancing with large groups of friends.

The core problem with using others to meet your needs is that others are inherently selfish and unreliable, and so you will never be satisfied. There will also tend to be a very strong drive to manipulate others in order to get them to meet your needs in the ways you want. Which is exactly the problem we see in the Teal documentary. And even deeper core problem is that others are imaginary, so who are you kidding? Self-reliance is an important value in this work. Don't use others do things you can do for yourself. You shouldn't need others to emotionally ground you because you can do that for yourself. Telling your employees that they cannot have children or spouses because you need them to emotionally support you -- this is the problem of Teal's approach.

Yeah, ego death is not a great term. Awakening / God-realization is a much better term, and is the highest goal.

Good. What you discovered is called STATE. State is the key to game. But now you need to learn how to enter state without drinking. It is more challenging but it can be learned. That's where the magic happens. Build up your state each night until you give 0 fucks. Then you will hook lots of girls, and the hottest girls. You are basically learning how to enter extroversion, where you are completely out of your head. Extroverts can turn on state instantly. Introverts require lots of training.

Any verbals work when said from the right place, in the right context. It's not meant to be a pickup line. You should not be approaching girls and telling them you got a small dick. That's just creepy as fuck. You should only say it rarely, when it fits the situation and when it would be funny. Otherwise you will come off as trying too hard. Be careful with sexual jokes. They require skill to pull off. If you do it wrong you will creep girls out and instantly blow yourself out. Use them very sparingly and with taste. Don't turn them into a routine. For newbies my advice: don't talk about sexual stuff AT ALL. Stay classy.

Of course being a loner can be dysfunctional, however so can needing others to make you feel complete, loved, and grounded. A healthy balance must be struck. And when it comes to spiritual work, the most serious work is best done alone. The problem is that other people will distract you from awakening with their human bullshit.

For me they make it harder. But it will vary.

This isn't a humility issue. I'm super introverted, but I have taught myself to go out to dumb clubs and just have fun with dumb friends on a dumb level. Learn how to party. You can learn to put yourself into extroverted states. It's good for ya. Also good for getting girls and making friends.

There isn't one. They are equally real.

Watch so much YT till it kills you and you reincarnate as the Buddha.

That's a lot of money to start a small biz. Don't waste it.

Consciousness is all well and good. But it is not God-realization. The point is not to realize everything is consciousness -- of course it is. The point is the realize you are the one and only God. To speak of form and formlessness is really missing the point. That's far too disconnected from your own Godhood. Be careful talking about Truth as something impersonal. It's YOU!

The problem with your logic is that all the impermament stuff (form) is also equally consciousness, and is also Absolute. You have denied the absoluteness and truth of form, creating a duality between form and formless. You have also denied absolute truth to impermanence, which is false. Your logic is too clever for its own good.

I think what's happening IS the radical reform. It's just that radical reform doesn't feel or look all clean-cut the way you expect it should based on history. History as it's told to you is very oversimplified and cartoonish. The realities of radial reform are dirty, chaotic, murky -- you cannot easily even tell that something good is happening. Think of how the Civil War appeared to people at the time. It did not look or feel like reform or progress. Progress comes with a lot of backlash and resistance. That's what we are seeing. We are going through a transition from Orange to Green, and this is what it looks like. It's long and messy. Progress has always been long and messy. Please stop with the gaslighting.

Please keep a lid on the spiritual BS.

Learn to have deeper sex.

But they won't overrule it because they have decided that the Constitution doesn't protect abortion at all. So a ban is perfectly legal now. It's just a giant waste of time. Congress flips back and forth.
