Leo, would you mind doing a video on how to let go of the fear of Hell realms? I donated to your Patreon.

Thanks Leo! Great to hear from you! Thank you for your excellent work!

I'm afraid to let go of my Catholicism (and be God) because I'm afraid if I leave the faith, I'll go to Hell. Any tips on getting rid of this fear?

Why people are like that, characteristics, how to succeed that way, etc. Thanks.

What are your thoughts on doing mantras throughout the day, such as the om mani padme hum?

Hi Leo, Thanks for your amazing work. My request is for a video about loners.

My understanding of Do Nothing Meditation is that involves allowing the mind to wander wherever it wants to go and feeling all your feelings with no attempt to control your thoughts. If you do that all day, are you practicing Do Nothing all day? Or is that just what people normally do?

My disability is schizophrenia.

My plan: -Drop out of society -Live as a hermit -I have government assistance for my disability -Enroll in a program to pay off my student loans -Take care of my aging mom, live with her -Become a freelance editor -Quit smoking and drinking -Stay in the house, only leave if I must -Do mantras throughout the day -Meditate -Eat two meals a day Is that in line with Buddhist teachings? Does that sound like a plan?

Spiritual teachers like Leo may say that "what you resist persists," like how the Buddha said that "all suffering is caused by desire." Well I have few desires but one of them is an overwhelming need to be a hermit. I find leaving the house overwhelming. I'm bombarded with intrusive, scary thoughts. I find social situations boring, stressful, and totally unrewarding. I know no one's perfect and I don't seek to be the Buddha, so I'm just wondering if the resistance to interaction will, while being a desire, only make the monkey mind worse? Thanks.

@Shiva The purpose is being. Leo said that being is the highest form of existence. I don't need a life purpose other than "to be" or at the most "the end of suffering." @Team Bills I'm on SSI for now. I paid into the system by being a teacher. @XYZ I see your point. Philosophers and entrepreneurs like Leo create all this free content and I use it and then don't put anything out there, so that is freeloading. On the other hand, there are people who live in caves who are actually fed and even given medical treatment. But I do see your point. So not sure where to go from there.

I'm interested in Do Nothing Meditation, just letting the monkey mind do whatever it wants, letting go of control. I'm wondering if eventually, my brain will get bored of the obsessive, scary thoughts and just be mindful?

I'm thinking of starting my own business. I would like it to involve the computer. One possibility is organizing files for my neighbor, but she's out of town for now. Any other ideas?

What do you mean by make your own "class?" What would that look like?
