You will never know who is a Ramana and who isn't. But I do. You're not. And nor is Leo. As brilliant as he is. He couldn't achieve it naturally.

@UnbornTao you're not awake until you realize that everything is imaginary. Everything is a complete dream. That is spirituality. All is Mind. Nothing needs to exist outside your direct experience because reality is Mind so it would mean nothing to have anything outside you. You are God

For itself. Exactly. Other plays no role here.

Indeed. An easier way to look at it is that if you don't think about other, other does not exist.

That could easily mean that deception could prevail. Is there an Absolute. Or is it just anything goes.

Where's the final video. I have to be honest. I find this series highly repetitive with so many references to science and academics falling short that honestly the whole thing becomes lackluster. Its the same thing over and over. If you aren't going to provide anything new don't even bother with the final episode.

If she is spending that much time and investing that much in you than no youre not wasting your time. But you need to get more aggressive. Set up a time to meet with her and take it to the next level. You need to always be pushing it to the next level with a girl.

We love you too. We are you.

I hope he didn't hold anything back in his book. You would want to hear it raw.

But that's you in a nutshell. It seems to have made an impact on people here so I would consider adding it.

If you realize reality is Infinity there can only ultimately be one. Many is the fragmentation of the one which can be said to be the same as the one. Hence duality is non-duality.

Then he should put it in his book if he is a teacher. I just mentioned in another thread that suffering is a key aspect of awakening. Without drugs. So if it takes a million broken hearts or sitting upon an icy mountain top naked - do it.

Your paper will be frowned upon no different than Copernicus was frowned upon when he said the sun went around the earth. Stick to your guns and write the paper that Consciousness is fundamental. You know the Truth whether your philosopher professor doesn't is immaterial. So write it. You will never be able to debunk materialism in the eyes of university but it shouldn't stop you. At least they won't crucify you.

There was an episode of Leo's and I dont remember which. But he stood baffled. Absolutely baffled that no one else understands this stuff. And to me its absolutely beyond baffling. That a you tuber has to be the one to teach this stuff. Its mind boggling. But it is a culture paradigm locked.

You forget that it is a culmination of other stages plus going beyond. Its not some special people walking around its highly developed intellectuals yes - but also mysticism must be a part of stage turquoise thus it is a very distinctive part because so few others have become mystics.

Its not incorrect not to either. You have one foot in Turquoise when you become a mystic.

Really- haven't checked in a while. Might be time to revisit the book list. There are some gems there for sure.

The only other awakened beings i saw was Ralston and Marcus Aurelius. Ralston's book of not knowing was stellar but I didnt even finish it because I awakened from Leo's stuff alone. The other books I read from his list were Gandhi and Marcus Aurelius- also enlightened. There is nothing from Rupert Spira or Spinoza on the book list either. These teachers will only take you so far but they cannot take you as far as full awakening/solipsism as God

You don't need anyone's approval.

Id say women are the most picky about height though and men do not care about that. They want to look up to a man. A short guy unless hes extremely handsome has a very hard time regardless. Its a bad stigma in the US.

You have to look at it holistically. Here's a perfect example. There are many that get away clean with murder..legally there was no evidence found anywhere. Does this mean they get off scot-free? On the surface yes. But perhaps they wake with nightmares everyday over what they did. It will come back to bite in some fashion. So holistically he is correct over a long term not short term. You arent going to see it in all cases. There is always a price to be paid when you make a deal with the devil.

Actual enlightenment is the transcendence of suffering and of all worldly desires and fears. Not conceptual enlightenment of which you speak. Yes conceptually you can get there too. I'm sure with your wisdom, though not enlightened, you have reached a state of non-suffering. But to really transcend the fear of death and what lies beyond only spiritual enlightenment (actual awakening) can resolve. Nevertheless- one should not seek the transcendence of suffering. As you point out in embracing it one can ride the wive. Suffering is a natural progression. There have been many who have used suffering as a path to enlightenment. It is as natural as the air you breathe.

Really good advice. Woman want you to appear off the cuff. So even if you need to turn to theory you should be doing it off the cuff. A textbook can't teach you how to be funny. You have to just have that.

He's right though that the average man won't even engage unless she's sexually attractive to him. But the main thing for a woman is the sexual connection. So if you establish that it takes a lot for her to lose that. Which is kind of ironic since its the man that thinks with his dick. I know that this is beyond the dating scene itself but if as a man you establish that she will want you. Its getting to that point that is the initial challenge for a man. At least a woman will give you the time of day if there is some attraction. Woman don't initially base it on looks alone but something has to attract them. So in that sense its the same but woman have a wider spectrum when it comes to type of attraction. It doesn't always have to be physical. Though if you go on dating sites it will always be physical first regardless of gender. That kinda shows you that physical appearance comes first.

Only as far as the bedroom. Otherwise its the same.
