@1 hour and 4 minutes Leo says that the only reason you are alive is because of fear. I remember Ram Dass says that a Bodhisattva is only here on earth to help us, they have no fear of death at all but keep reincarnating until every living being is enlightened. Is there something I'm missing to me these two things contradict is leo saying the only reason you 'think' you exist is because of fear?

@kinesin @Tim R @BipolarGrowth thanks guys really good replies!

I think the cause of this is from chanting hare krishna I have increased my rounds to around 7 or 8 perday and have had some sleep interruptions so i just sit up and chant during the nights lately. I will usually get to sleep maybe for an hour around 5am and then my dreams are just nuts like i was full on hallucinating and it felt like i was being dragged by my feet out of my bed by a jet ski to some distant location then that would stop and i would focus on the feeling in my body during the lucid dream and i would hear cray sounds was kinda creepy and like in my ears i hear just the most loudest sound and i just focus on it and it gets more intense. its very hard to explain im just worried if there are dangers around doing lots of mantra meditation when you dont understand allot about spirits or demons or any of that stuff

@nahtanoj interesting.. im a pisces myself i wonder if that plays into it

Becoming more humble, useful mantra? It seems like understanding reality it such a huge undertaking. Really wanting to get some permanent growth in this area.

Wow this armodafinil is great haha. anyway to go meta is to reproduce, to create a cube you times a number by itself . You can create a cube with a number you can create any symmetrical object with a number. say you create a cube with the number 4. you times 4 times 4 times 4 and you get the cube. to go from square to cube we times 4 times 4 and we get the cube \ 4 is the square and cube to do maths is to reproduce because all numbers are the same. so basically maths is sex

Just thought i would put the idea out there because i thought it would be a pretty cool experience to take mushrooms whilst on the moon or mars with like so little gravity u would feel so light mind and body free on another planet

Devaraj's whole channel is dedicated to grounding and feeling more in the body. I have the same issue with meditation I could do it for hours and have been quite dedicated a times but i choose to do these kinds of things as my main way of being grounded. Im someone who has a lot of tension in my legs and have been doing bioenergetics to try and release some of the tension and it will probably take a few years of daily practice before i can really consider myself especially grounded. If your into Actualized.org there is a good chance is because your the same people who are really grounded dont usually give a shit about meditation unless something dramatic happens to them.

'Pain vs Suffering' perhaps?

I did a psychotherapy session with this lady who has done vipassanas and has a masters in psychology and traveled around the east and all. She says that psychedelics are bad basically and that she refuses to work with me if I take any drugs. She also charges $160 per hour witch seems like allot. Im not sure if she has ever taken psychedelics but this just seems weird to me is psychotherapy really that powerful for personal development? more than psychedelics? Is my money better spent doing allot of meditation/ self inquiry and reading and other ways wim hof method and all this? I just dont understand what is wrong with taking psychedelics for personal growth is my money better spent on buying a $15 tab of acid every two weeks rather than $160 every two weeks on psychotherapy? is it common for psychotherapist to refuse to work with people who take them? it just seems fishy to me.

I have to say that Richard Dawkins in this clip seems to be the most on point out of all these characters. I used to consider myself an atheist and used to follow these guys and my understanding has come along way and its interesting looking back on the things I used to watch with as if this was the cutting edge of truth.

I've heard people say that not much healing really happens in dreams, I have had some wicked freaking dreams in my time and its always seems like something is new or different the next day and with understanding and directly experiencing how reality is not physical and shit like that. so I would argue that I've had insights from dreams but healing i guess not? I dont understand a whole lot about anything haha so just wondering if anyone has any knowledge of the difference between the two

Im curious If anyone knows some good resources for this, it would be good if there was something compiling loads of stories about these encounters that happened in history. I think it would be one of the gnarliest things to hear about.

seems like good advice. not sure how high consciousness this is does pickup/ pickup advice change much with consciousness?

Im curious if these two fields overlap does raising your consciousness make you more attractive? Do people go out in public on psychedelics and do pickup?

I have noticed that I seem to have control over how my body feels by focusing my attention on my belly. When i focus for a long time 1hour or so in bed or throughout the day i while my belly seems like its doing allot but the rest of my body is much more relaxed and mind is quite. I just started doing this last night and i feel actually quite different witch is astonishing for such a simple technique. Could the soreness be driving my attention away as a defence mechanism or is this more likely a physical problem?

thats depressing

@Leo Gura Cool thanks !

Does reincarnation infer that if you stop having interest in reality it goes away? once you experience time becomes existent does non-duality state that existence isn't an accident and this existence is ultimate good and how does understanding this benefit us as existence?

quote from 'brothers of the screaming abyss' by Dennis Mckenna does this quote hold up? I find allot of people say that Terence Mckenna doesnt have a clue what he is talking about as far as understanding consciousness. But I have noticed that he has been classified as a turquoise/ green.

you can try bashing a pillow. you get on your knees and put your hands together above your head and then bash the pillow whilst saying somthing like fuck you or whatever and you can fake it till you make it try it for a few minutes and you should be able to get to the feelings its very effective in my experience. more useful info:

I think weed can give insight if done In the right way although I don’t think it is comparable to true psychedelics. weed is just not as powerful, when smoked anyway. I don’t have experience with eating weed witch apparently is 4x as psychedelic. I’ve gone into taking LSD thinking it might be like weed but my experiences is that they are quite different and weed doesn’t really prepare you for them if I’m wanting to get powerful insights with weed I need to be in silent darkness and relaxing my body it’s like super good for body awareness

take 5meodmt and you'll understand

If you havent seen his new special i recommend it haha. Theres a part where he talks about how dogs do not understand pointing and its so similar to when leo talks about it. its crazy to see how the same concept is applied in two different styles of teaching. What do people think of louis ck on the spiral. i feel like he is yellow
