Well I think there is some real beauty here, but I'm in love with anything most stuff STEM. how can we even predict things correctly? I'm not going to actually write out the code, but I can tell you how I would solve my ball example and how this could be applied to you. So for the ball example, until the variables in our system interact, they are linear and only dependent on themselves. The code for this wouldn't be too hard, it would start each ball at some initial position, with some initial velocity. It would make really small increments of movement in whichever direction I tell it to go. After the program moves each ball just a tiny tiny tiny bit in it's linear direction, we look to see if any of the balls hit each other. If they hit eachother, we take a break from out system evolving to create a new set of three linear systems out of out old system, but now we have new angles/velocities that these balls are moving. These angles/velocities will be dependent on this collision equation you solve. Here you will have to consider the momentum of the balls, the angles of incidence at which they hit each other, this is all doable though and from this you can have a linear system again that has three independent parts. The problem with doing this is it would be near impossible on paper ( BUT DOABLE!!!), you'd be spending all day with each ball slowly moving it forward and watching for it to collide with another ball. Then writing out more angles and solving more equations just to create a bit of progress in understanding the time progression of the system. What does this say about your goals, I mean you're a nonlinear system yourself. You get in these weird positive feedback loops. Say you start meditation, and this results in eating healthier because you need a bit more mental clarity (smarties aint doin it), but maybe this eating healthier gives you the energy to go to the gym, which makes you just feel really fucking good and now because you're feeling good you want to meditate more. You can't solve that haha, but we can learn to be intuitive. We can test inputs and techniques and not worry about the complex black box of interactions that is happening at the core. I'm not saying throw away logic, but if you do something that feels like it's making a real difference in your life and you don't know why, don't worry about it. While there would certainly be knowledge gained from learning about the complexities of why a technique might work for you, and the weird ways one habit might play off another, if it seems like you won't be able to wrap your mind around it, I wouldn't worry, you can still see the fruits. Final point is that while this seems to suggest you should treat yourself as this non-linear system, constantly recomputing the right approach you should take to life each second, that's not a good approach. You'd spend all of your RAM computing and computing what you should do, and never tackling the issues in front of you. You have a computer which at least for me can think/concentrate about/on on a finite amount of things each day. The game is taking enough points of your day such that you can get yourself back onto the best possible path without spending too much time figuring out the best path, because if you spend all day figuring out what you should do, well that's all you did. find your max(efficiency*time) if you have fun maximizing growth. I do this sometimes, and other times I watch Alex Jones call frogs gay, so don't be intimidated by this idea. I think it's just fun to think about if you were a robot heading towards enlightenment, the fastest way of doing so. Anyways I hoped that helped haha

I can't help you fully understand or mathematically model these systems, but let me quick give you a simple nonlinear-system. So it's not that Leo has said anything I disagree with, however I think he left out a key point that these systems often have variables that depend on each other. It seems you're interested so let me quick give you a general example Let's put a ball in a box and give it some velocity, we will call this ball 1. Knowing it's mass and velocity, with some initial conditions, we can know exactly how ball 1 moves around the box easily. The distance traveled will just be it's velocity(ball1)*time and that will be in whatever directions, but that's all very easy to figure out ( I know easy is relative, this COULD be easy for you). This is my linear system. Now lets add two more balls, although I think two would work fine. So these three balls are all in some initial position and we will be giving them some velocity in random directions. We want to sit down and figure out the position of ball one say in 30 minutes, after it has bounced of many many walls. So we start writing the same equations velocity(ball1)*time and then we think to ourselves, well shit, what about collisions! Ball 2 and Ball 3 might have gotten in the way. So now we think, well i'll be intelligent and consider Ball 1 and Ball 2 two linear systems, I will calculate their trajectories until they fuck with each other, and then I will write the equations for what a collision might be, and the continue on the system as two linear systems until they react. Well at this point you realize that you're an idiot, because Ball 3 probably interfered with even this simple two part linear system. So you kind of get in this hole of trying to calculate one variable with another variable, but you don't know that other variable because it depends on the first. In simpler English, you want to calculate Ball 1, but you need Ball 2 and Ball 3 to know Ball 1, but you don't know Ball 2 or Ball 3, because they also need to know Ball 1, but fuck I don't even know that after any collision has taken place. You can stop here, this is just one further example encase I didn't drive the point home. Leo mentioned weather as an example. Let's say today we care about rain because we're a witch and don't want to get wet. Well clouds predict rain, but the presence or absence of clouds might hinge on the wind that day, the wind that day is probably some function of temperature outside, that temperature outside now is a function of clouds because well shade. But fuck, now I need to know if there are clouds to know if there will be clouds and I don't know shit.... That's kind of the difficulty of non-linear systems as far as I can tell, hope that gave you any insight

Wooooooaahhhhh slow down, at least let me talk to you on Skype quick? At least tell me your full story?

Just remember they are over 50% of the population (although i'm sure this is heavily regional), that would make you weird for not having a baby or a period. They could have an even more valid idea than you in believing you and I weren't normal D:::::

Hi I'm no expert, but I often find that some sensations and reactions can be really subtle and difficult to realize you were even aware of them, or could be. I would train your awareness, specifically your emotional awareness. If you aren't already meditation daily, well you know.... But while doing that, use that meditation session to train your ability to focus in on your emotions and reactions, you will get better at being aware of more and more subtle emotional reactions. That being said, I hope an expert comes to help you out, gl!

Just focus on having a cute kid, it'll all work out. As far as this post though, really high props for trying to understand women and putting yourself out there on here, I hope you gain some knowledge/understanding that benefits you in life

When I really fuck up, I just remember that feeling bad about it really won't do shit. I've known many depressed bed-ridden who went to my school. That state of mind won't get you anywhere. So first of all break up the barriers that you need to be sad to make up for it, that's bullshit (in my eyes). You have to want to be happy, say it if you have to. I think second would come dealing with all the negative emotions that come along with deep regret. What I have found best to deal with lingering emotions (I feel them primarily in the stomach) is usually an hour meditation where I channel a sort of loving energy into those emotions while trying to be as aware as possible of them... Shinzen Young also confirmed my formula (im sure it was discovered hundreds/thousands years ago) pain/awareness=suffering, remember that!!!

I wouldn't be surprised if you changed your mind when she looked into your eyes all cute

Yeah, there are quite a few genuinely intelligent people on this forums, far more than myself, it's nice to have a good debate

We may not have the greatest hands on quantum mechanical knowledge of how neurons fire at the moment, but you can imagine how hard that would be in a living system to get those readings. What you do know is that everything we have observed to date from electron, atoms, to even larger molecules HAVE quantum mechanical effects. You have a wave length associated with you depending on how much you eat. There is a difference between measurable QM effects and shit. I'm lucky enough to work at a lab, and our devices get cooled to 50 mk or so, any higher temperature and your coherence would be destroyed by thermal effects ( you're also relying on super conductivity, which I think is a few kelvin for most materials). This however is in a lab setting, to say QM effects require very low temperature environments is slightly inaccurate. Measuring them effectively without your data being destroyed does (in the case of your quantum computers), but that doesn't mean they aren't there, we just can't measure them well. I believe the statement is false when considering something like a double slit experiment, but I can only guess that. As far as your commentary on non linearity and breaking up something into levels of abstraction, I'm just no where near qualified to talk, so thanks for your knowledge and I look forward to getting a deeper understanding of non-linearity/reality. Much love

But quantum mechanics depends largely on the scale of the system we are talking about. h/p where h is a constant and p is momentum. In this way you can scale up the mass and size of a computer enough to ignore the effects of quantum mechanics. It's not that quantum mechanics aren't happening, simply that the wavelengths of the components are so small that they won't have an effect. Certainly they will have some white noise effect, but the system will be able to be described nearly perfectly by Newtonian mechanics. You can't say this about the nature of small molecules and neurotransmitters in the human brain, QM matters there, you can't talk about the brain and consciousness fully without considering QM. That being said, this sub argument doesn't play a larger role in anything I had to say because I can't continue on the argument by saying that this distinction will have an effect, simply too ignorant at the moment. Appreciate the debate nonetheless

"all of the molecules follow simple Newtonian physics" Is this not falsified by quantum mechanics? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quantum_brain_dynamics I mean surely you've seen the double slit experiment, and the basics of measurement. If you're going to bring it down to the level of molecules, it's inaccurate to say they all follow simple Newtonian physics. (as far as I can tell)

I definitely don't want to come out and attack you, but if you could help me with any of my delusions I post, or anyone can, I will love you forever. So my first thing if you could address is that in Leo's most recent videos he talks a lot about true masters being humble. Out of anyone I've seen on these forums, you certainly come off as believing yourself to be enlightened or masterful, animals bow before you etc. I guess what I'm trying to say is that brining up the fact that "An awakened human being is many many many magnitudes superior in any area of life. Even in physical strength. " on a thread that isn't even discussing that comes off as quite the opposite of humble. I mean the one area you specifically mention is physical strength. Why not mention how much easier it is to help and love people? Instead you chose to say that awakened people are physically stronger? What's the intention with that statement. Earlier in this post, you said it seemed like a blue elaboration. I was confused by this because even though it didn't seem like an accurate description of what happened, it didn't specifically convey to me and specific blue traits of absolute right and wrong etc. So if you could be very specific in why you diagnosed him as blue, or this description as blue, and not say red or orange. I know you were asked already and kind of skirted the question jokingly, but I would really really appreciate clearing up my delusion. What I interpret as a lack of humbleness follows many of your posts, for example. This is just a comment "Leo is on his own path, he will get there sooner or later" I guess this is kind of the attitude I interpret often, like you reached the finish line and came here to be a hot shot while you watch other people try and grow. But that can totally be a projection of what I do when I finish a project early. Finally, you accused the dude with a featured 77 pages of comments as a potential fraud. Do you think Leo would keep that thread open if he was fucking with people, and not an enlightened mastered trying to "Help Sincere Seekers"? "@winterknight Put a photo of yours, or you are just a copy from a copy regurgitating copies. I don't see uniqueness and originality." It also comes off like you already made the judgement " I don't see uniqueness and originality" Again, I'm really not here to fight anyone, I just wanted to address how you come off to me, and why I might be super super deluded

Can you lift a car?

As "woo woo" as a lot of these more ritualistic spiritual practices come of to me, I really appreciate that you treat them as non-imperative tools that don't have to make sense, if they work. Where I usually get turned off is when the tools become what is actually conjuring god, and it no longer becomes about exploring your own experience but following a list of instructions to summon whatever. I might even try some of your recommendations, I probably lean too heavily towards science and modeling

Maybe you just got the wrong impression of Leo, at least take one second look. Also, if you are asking me to answer your questions, could you answer your own as well? My answers for fairness, even though I'm not going to pretend like I know Leo what is his intent? His intent is to carry out his agenda. What is his agenda? Raise the conscious awareness of as many people to the highest degree possible to create a maximally functioning/fulfilling society while having a good fucking time Why does he releases videos every Sunday? I don't know where you are going with this one but I'd assume that this schedule works best for him. He probably works M-F and allocates a couple of hours on his weekends to get out a video. Anyways, if you get the chance, i'd love to see the answers to your own questions. Peace

It would be unfortunate though if for whatever reason loving others made you happier than you ever could have hoped to be focusing solely on yourself. I'm not going to say this is the case for you, but maybe give it a shot, you have many many years to try different approaches

My advice would be to stop assuming, i received what must have been just a whiff of the ox last night and going into that I had 0 expectations or ideas about non-duality. If you haven't had the experience, and it's not something that can be fully described with words, then you can see how people who haven't had the experience and use words to theorize about it are really really really prone to getting false expectations about what non-duality is the experience. I think these false expectations can create barriers and cause you to look and look in one corner of your mind you've convinced yourself must house god. This may or may not be the case, I'm no Zen master, but there is certainly some probability it's true and it seems reasonable to me from my experience. With that in mind, I really recommend you just follow whatever daily meditation you do and continue to develop yourself until you can tell us from experience what this Ox symbolizes and whether some being arises, good luck!

I'm not going to convince you not to hate your roommate or other stage green people. If you enjoying hating people, I'm not here to stop you. People have different upbringings, loveless lives, etc. I agree stage green can come off as a bit aggressive towards ideas they deem offensive, but I think there's a better solution for YOU in specific than hating them

"Basically what any human can do today with internet access, an AI can do, better, faster, and smarter." If you manage to source this, i'll go to bed an astonished young man. Hope you got around to finding some mushrooms, they are magical

I obviously don't understand non-duality and consciousness well enough, that's why I left it up to the reader to believe what they are going to believe. That being said, I will argue that if AI is conscious and aware, so are all the other characters you've played. As far as your comment on AI solving global warming, and wanting to kill all humans to do so, just because the computer says to do it does not mean you do it. Obviously we will have people who check the outputs of these systems instead of letting them carry out any actions. The smartest most unpredictable non-linear AI is probably not going to have actual control over anything important, just the ability to print out an answer

If you have video lectures, please link me or a course home page. I'd like to see the approach you take if you don't mind

Thank you for being the local expect, I guess you subtly made a point that I missed. While it seems strange to me to be afraid of AI that we create to benefit humanity, certainly someone could use the intelligence of AI to be intentionally malevolent

I don't agree with the statement that because both a human system and a computer work on voltages, that they will both experience consciousness. That being said, I know very little on the subject of AI being conscious, as does probably everybody because it doesn't appear to be a thing at the moment. I actually work in a quantum computing lab, and I can tell you it's a bit oversold for funding and public hype, that will be a long ways away

Mario thinks that getting princess peach will make him happy though...seems pretty deluded. I get where you are attacking the argument of the simple linearly programmed python AI, that being said, that argument was to point out the nature of electronics, as electrons on metal. That does not change in whatever language or linear vs. non-linear. Things are still computed at some point.
