It could definitely cure it. I have OCD but it is very mild now. I realized directly that awakening is actually a cure as well - thought perhaps not permanent it drastically reduces symptoms - i beiieve it is elevated consciousness that cures it or reduces symptoms...as you align with Infinite Intelligence. My awakenings were without any pyschedelics but if they raise consciousness i can see how it would help.

@Dlavjr yeah it does sound like OCD. You have to train yourself to go meta on the thoughts. Be aware when a synthetic thought arises (in some circles obsessions are called synthetic thoughts) although truthfully all thoughts are synthetic. But be able to identify this as OCD and then just let the thoughts go. Notice that once you stop thinking these thoughts and think about something else it is like they never were thought. Like they never existed. Because they don't. It may take a lot of training and repetitiveness but this should help a lot. Don't allow the thoughts to make you feel bad or guilty either as they are illusory.

Definitely. Everything is by design.

Maybe the word dream works better. This whole thing is a dream. You can wake up from it. You can realize that as God you are dreaming up everything and everyone - including you! You can break out of this dream just like your sleeping dreams and when you do you are like...HOLY FUCK. This means just like in your night time dreams everyone in the dream is you. God/You is dreaming it all and is simultaneously dreaming an infinite amount of dreams as each being in the main dream. You are one of them. So there are dreams within dreams.

@zeroISinfinity what is making you not be able to sleep - why is God realization causing you anxiety? These are the questions you need to answer.

@lukej great post - great points i have seen this in my own experience as well. Of course you can still teach spirituality after awakening but only to those already willing to learn that come to you. You shouldn't go to them or it will corrupt Truth and turn it into devilry. The snake will eat its own tail.

@Shaun i think you already know. He is alone from the Absolute perspective. That is non-dual. But when he posts this he is in duality. He is being the perspective of his finite ego.

Is everyone noticing the paradox here. There is no wrong or right answer. From the human egoic perspective if sex turns into an addiction where it is consuming your life then the ego has turned it into devilry. On the other hand It can be a healthy spiritual thing of Oneness as well.

I think that's the best answer you can give. He has asked this question a lot on here and i think he wants all of us to pacify him by telling him he has free will. He has to discover the Truth for himself.

@Schahin It is nuanced but this is exactly it. From your ego's perspective it appears you have free will. And as such since you are imagining you do, it becomes real for you. From the Absolute perspective Infinite consciousness is imagining all of this playing through every possible outcome although all outcomes already exist as raw potential. It's like a choose your own adventure but will you choose the one in which you wake up to yourself?

Yeah it is better than a heroin high so it is said.. (I have not done heroin but i have felt the bliss of Pure Being and it is awesome. You can feel it fill your entire body and also when it leaves. @Nahm maybe the term Kundalini is a write off - but the phenomena is real - i call it Being.

@Pernani nice i live in Chicago.

@traveler powerful stuff. In the end you are surrendering to yourself. It's not so much a test of faith to me as it is to become and embody your True nature - to realize your full Infinite power and be in complete alignment with that.

@Nahm still very cool! Recently saw the movie First Man. Loved the sound track.

@Nahm good luck sir!

@Meditationdude that's probably why he put that last video out. Awakening to certain realizations are one thing. Embodying them and purifying all of your defilements are another. In order to fully embody your awakenings you have to detach from your ego's devilry forever - this means the stuff your ego wanted becomes mundane. Addictions to money, power, sex (porn), drugs and alcohol, - selfishness, dishonesty, fear of death - all of that you must detach from in order to fully embody Truth and God's Love. Afterall you are God in physical form..and that is what you must embody. Most people haven't had even one mystical/Divine experience so they are no where near this in the path. I myself am now in the early stages of the embodiment phase but im almost 50. Everyone needs to sit down and contemplate where they are and if they are ready for mysticism before they jump in. They may need decades more of egoic devilry haha. I will tell you that i have had many awakenings and have awoken to everything that Leo talks about but in separate experiences so these teachings are as real as it gets - but whether one is ready is another matter.

You are imagining all of it. And you just imagined that you are imagining it. And you also just imagined that you imagined that. And that. And that. To infinity. Inifnity cancels itself out. It is nothing.

There are tons of threads here about depersonalization just do a search. I can't find it now but one of them had a great video by Shinzen Young who calls it enlightenment's evil twin. Just search that in you tube and it will come up. It won't let me embed it here.

Yup. Oneness.

@Gnostic Christian earlier you asked about non-duality and "getting it"...so the thing with Truth is, it is prior to grasping/understanding. It is not a belief, like religion - though many confuse it with religion. Language can only point to it. You actually have to become the Absolute Truth. You have to become a mystic. When you have a mystical or Divine experience you're ego dissolves and you literally are reality. Its hard to describe with words because words can only point to it. You actually have to be it to understand. I am 49 and though jewish was an atheist my whole life - and happen to stumble on Leos enlighnement videos last year. I happen to have a very loose identity and an open mind so i started listening to them and meditating. Needless to say when i had my first mystical experience i was like - oh my fucking God this is real - i kept repeating that over and over because i was just so stunned.

This is gonna sound radical but the truth is consciousness is getting advice from itself

Just watched the what is reality - a radical explanation episode - epic That's up there with my favorites.

@zeroISinfinity i Love you Zero. Yeah mysticsm is something else right?

You're on the right path @Joker_Theory @Gnostic Christian You ARE consciousness. You are the whole fucking thing.

Depends on where you are at in life. It you discover spirituality at 50 you could awaken instantly and not need a guru just from a lifetime full of suffering.
