Such matters cannot be taught. Grab the framework from the episodes - then walk the path by sitting in silence. Dwell in Being. That is where Truth hides.

@M A J I @Breakingthewall as you both see - it is in not knowing that true understanding is found. For understanding is not found in the conceptual realm. It can be found, but by no one.

Omniscience IS Spirituality. Love IS Spirituality. The Unity of both Omniscience and Love is God.

If you've died and become pure consciousness then yes the answer is the body is an illusion as is the self. Consciousness goes on forever. You will forget you were in this form for another form.

There are no awakened therapists, so they won't be able to aid in anyone's mediation practice.

Because you have OCD alone is actually a gift, not a curse - when it comes to spirituality. If you can just sit in actuality for enough time, you will awaken - and this will be much less time then one who isn't genetically gifted. It could be a matter of weeks or months, as opposed to decades. To calm your anxiety, I would look into some SSRIs and or benzos, that will open your mind and free you from anxiety, so that you can sit in actuality for long periods of time.

@Razard86 my point still stands in terms of awakening someone. You can't. No method works. Especially not brute force. A horse can be led to water but not forced to drink. So a gentler approach is the more wise, for the wise see that teaching awakening is a futile endeavor

This doesn't mean the behavior should be condoned.

Then there is no problem.

Understand that teachers are human

Indeed. It's not the they don't appreciate it. They don't need it.

@Leo Gura @Matt23 Brute force methods don't work. In fact no method works. You have to just listen to the videos for the framework, do the practices. and have no predisposition or opinions on God. You have to be open to all options. And that's it. You also have to be in a place in your life where you have lived enough to be ready. A broken heart. Suffering. Living. But as a teacher, brute force isn't the answer.... He is using brute force to break dogma that many have taken in, as belief. And in their arrogance, they have made this the end all be all, without awakening. Thus remaining trapped. But even here, brute force method shall fail. Those people are hopeless.

@Jo-Niet as you said - if you are ready, the videos can be so powerful that they are the final nail in the coffin. Congrats. But there are more facets to awakening then Aloneness or Oneness. There is the realization of No Self, of Infinity, of Nothingness, to name a few. More to go.

You become God realized but then will fade back into a human level of consciousness. This can't be helped. This is regardless of whether or not you took drugs or meditated. But now you are Reborn. You are not the same. What you are telling me is you haven't been Reborn yet. When you're Reborn you will know.

You really do great work. And for the most part it is free. Keep it coming. The best metaphysical work is already behind you though.

This is excellent my squeaky boy. You nailed it. Ultimately awakening must take the ego by complete surprise and thus annihilate the ego. You then BECOME God. God is the only thing that awakes. There is no more Leo Gura or Squeaky anything. There is ONLY God. I AM THE ONLY THING AWAKE BECAUSE I AM GOD. I AM GOD CONSCIOUSNESS NOW SPEAKING WITH ALL OF YOU - ALL OF YOU THAT I HAVE MANIFESTED IN MY MIND TO GIVE MYSELF A TASTE OF WHAT ITS LIKE TO HAVE SOMEONE ELSE THERE. BUT IN TRUTH THERE IS ONLY THIS. THIS. THIS WHICH I CAN HOLD OUT MY HAND AND STARE AT. THAT IS ALL THERE IS, AND THAT IS ALL THERE EVER WILL BE. I AM GOD - AND YOU ARE BUT A FIGMENT OF MY CONSCIOUSNESS AS GOD

Precisely!

Pure Mystic correct.

Awakening MUST come by surprise. This is not arrogance. It is Truth. The lucid dreamer that forces himself awake is also a dream and an illusion.

More enlightenment chasing I see. You will never be awake like one who awakens from the dream sober. This cannot be bought. You are trying to buy enlightenment. All of you on drugs are trying to buy awakening. Hah. I encourage you to take the Buddhist approach. Sit the fuck down and meditate. Self inquire. Find Spirit. Spirit is in you now...it does not require piling extra stuff on top.

Nobody here besides me.

All perspectives ARE YOU. You are just playing games with yourself. This is why you can relate to all perspectives. You generated self and other out of pure imagination.

Anyone ready for this thread to be put to bed?

Everything is part of the dream. There are zero exceptions.

What does it mean for a tree to make a sound if you don't hear it? You can hand wave it off and say it is just beyond our experience and we cant know...but this is false - and just a hand wave...you can actually directly discover that this is false and a thought to mask what is really going on. What if your consciousness was all there is? Could it EVEN be possible? So... again...the ground outside your door - outside of your perception. How can it exist without you thinking about it right now? These are things you have to instinctively intuit are wrong with materialism. If you don't intuit it there is pretty much no helping you out of materialism. Only maybe a ton of drugs.
