@nahm My attempt at humour. Not a fan of the non dual use of quotations. “”I” am NOT” a fan. “I” should say lol -

@Aakash @Sockrattes sent both of you two satsangs. If your interested in more after checking them out or if you have any other questions let me know. if anyone else is curious in the satsangs just pm me❣️ @Serotoninluv It has been for a number of years. Your are blind to your own ignorance. I stabalized in non duality 3-4 years ago, and taught all the bs that everyone on here quotes on a daily basis -

@Aakash The texts in their entirety are too long to read. Too boring due to the language used, and most people will not understand why the nuance in them is relevant. They aren’t a good place to start. The core of the traditions. Especially Buddhism is different, however. They are great places to start. In other words the universally agreed teachings it aspouses. The 4 noble truths, the dhamma and so on. Then start with the more popular suttas, and instead of understanding see if anything resonates with you. In Buddhism and Jainism. The importance isn’t placed on any realisation. Non dual. Nothingness and etc. The total eradication of the fetters. Cravings, impurities in mind are the goal. This is one major difference between the traditions started by those who have gone all the way and random dudes in low states of realisation. ”emptiness is form and form is emptiness.” Yet so many in modern times neglect the world. Try to pretend it doesn’t exist. Disvalue it. Even if they say they aren’t. They look away. Avert their eyes from their humanity, and focus solely on “that which is prior” to blah blah blah. @Serotoninluv like this guy. What is your point? It has been revealed to me for a number of years, and honestly I couldn’t give a shit because reality is not one dimensional. If you avert your eyes to parts you dislike and call them illusion. You are just a child lost in fantasy. -

@Aakash Almost no teacher denies that there are different depths of enlightenment. More advanced teachers tend to even map out the path, and the subsequent stages of enlightenment: A few modern examples would be Ramaji, Davidya, Maharishi Mahesh Yogi. More ancient examples would be the Jain and Theravada states of enlightenment. That culminate with what the both term arhathood. Liberation, kaivalya, Perfect nirvana. Ramaji postulates that the reason people get stuck at a specific level of enlightenment is due to the fact that they start teaching at that level. They believe they see truth. Their perception and interpretation starts to become rigid. Their understanding of the world untouchable. This might seem like progress but in fact it’s stagnation. In Buddhism there are many stories of monks who overestimated their level of understanding, and due to false understanding got stuck. In short false or incomplete understanding, rigidity, thinking you know are barriers to growth. Leo himself, and due to his influence and culture on here other members on here. Most of whom have only had psychedelic insights. A few who have awakened on a basic level. Are among those with false understanding. The ego hijacks, pretends it understands. Ones emotions find solace and an escape in misunderstandings and interpretations. Combine all that, and what you have is a bunch of non dual know it all. Deeply out of touch with the humanity. With life. Who are the barriers to their own growth. -

@Sockrattes satsangs are just videos. Talks. -
Arhattobe replied to F A B's topic in Spirituality, Consciousness, Awakening, Mysticism, Meditation, God
@Sockrattes Access to insight has a dhamma section that’s a good summary of things. I never followed any Theravada teachers personally so can’t recommend any. I just read the text themselves. But, there are a number of satsangs I’ve done myself that I can link you if you are interested. Will link them to you in order. Start off by reading my 4 noble truths post and let me know if your interested in the satsangs. -

@Shin If I help you take 10 steps but that which helped you take ten steps. Those words limit you from further improvement. That is still not good. Leo is a good dude and he helped a lot of people, but his overconfidence in his opinions, and the teachings which have helped many on here. Also limit people on here. I don’t understand the reference of the jihad thing, but I’ve tried my best to help as well. Have dedicated 3-4 hours daily up until recently with students, being active in different communities and etc. @Sockrattes I do not feel attacked. Merely frustrated at the lack of self honesty, lifelessness and the amount spiritual bypassing that goes on here. All which will greatly limit and delude everyone on here that is guilty of what I said. https://www.accesstoinsight.org/ptf/buddha.html You can read the story of the Buddha there. In the story the Buddha meets a “master” and realised through direct experience the dimension of nothingness. Yet the limitations of nothingness become clear to him. He still has cravings. His mind still not under control. He continues. Teacher, after teacher. Until no teacher is of any use anymore. Buddhas liberation and enlightenment is not mere non duality. It is the complete cleansing of the mind. Total eradication of all cravings. I am not a Muslim. Theravada Buddhism is the best, most complete teaching, and I never said the 4 noble truths are not buddhas teachings. Don’t understand why you think I did. -
Arhattobe replied to F A B's topic in Spirituality, Consciousness, Awakening, Mysticism, Meditation, God
@Sockrattes Didn’t say he doesn’t have a point. The Buddha understood and realized nothingness way before his enlightenment. Years before. If you read the story. All this non dual gibberish. Happened to the Buddha in the beginning of his path. Having a glimpse and the interpretations you come to from glimpses or even low states of enlightenment isn’t worth much. That’s what the Buddha realized. That’s why each time after realising everything a teacher had to offer through “direct experience” he said next. Next. Next. The 4 noble truths come from the teachings of such a man, and have stranded the test of time. Millenia have passed and many enlightened people of many stages have reaffirmed their truth. That vs people that trip. Have a glimpse into something. Then come down to egoic consciousness and let us hijack and pervert each of those seeings. Wrong conclusions and interpretations. Neither buddha nor Jesus, nor Nanak nor any enlightened being in any state worth being in spouted such simplistic, non nuanced, extremely nihilistic, and ultimately lifeless nonesense. @Shin asides the 4 noble truths. They had to be taken on faith for the Seeker to even embark on the path. -

He is referring to reincarnation, and liberation from the cycle. -
Arhattobe replied to F A B's topic in Spirituality, Consciousness, Awakening, Mysticism, Meditation, God
@Sockrattes Most enlightened people of all time vs an overconfident psychonaut not in non duality. -
Arhattobe replied to F A B's topic in Spirituality, Consciousness, Awakening, Mysticism, Meditation, God
@Maya_0 He also emphazised right action, right speech, compassion and etc. The boddhisatva ideal and path makes it clear that, that is not the case. Renunciation and the monastic lifestyle have to do with desires and cravings. Not the world. -
Arhattobe replied to F A B's topic in Spirituality, Consciousness, Awakening, Mysticism, Meditation, God
@Maya_0 That is not true at all. -
Arhattobe replied to F A B's topic in Spirituality, Consciousness, Awakening, Mysticism, Meditation, God
Because it’s an oversimplification to say it’s all a fantasy. You are also equating all the weight, ideas and reality you would attach to a “dream” or “fantasy” by doing that. -

@Mu_ The Jeff foster video was dope ?❣️ -
Genuine person in deep pain makes post ”hey guys, my mother just died. I am in a lot of pain. What should I do?” deep poster “Guys? Pfft. Did you just assume my personhood. There is no pain. Your pain is illusory. Your mother doesn’t exist. I tell myself so I can make my existence bearable. You see I’m emotionally just as damaged as you, but I refuse to look at myself in any honest manner. Why? Simple. I don’t exist. I am the self. Don’t have to grow it you don’t exist. Abide in the place of silence and speak from the place called the anus. Works wonders.”

@TheAvatarState what @Amun said @Mu_ I do more than just post here, have spent quite a number of hours guiding people in various platforms actually. Only quit recently for various reasons. I don’t feel like I should make videos for public consumption for those same reasons. The reason I post here is because the people here are going into a forest blind, and will step on a lot of land mines I stepped on. A lot more landmines than the average seeker. Landmines that can do real damage. This is due to the particular type of path that is advocated here, the community dynamics and culture among other things. I give my two cents here in hopes that a few people might avoid some of the landmines I speak of. Doesnt seem to be too effective but worth a try. In regards to what I do. I’m studying to get my second masters degree in digital marketing. -

Nihilism is nonesense. You have parents that care about you. They exist. You, yourself experience ups and downs and can work on yourself and have a better life. Spiritual people on here and other places pretend to know all but the wisdom of the average person completely escapes them. To be a human. To know your place. To care about your loved ones. Its why they are here in the first place. Relax. Have a good cry. Go to your parents. It’s okay to almost crash. Sorry it’s happening, but don’t do anything rash. It does matter. Go look at your mothers face, imagine her cries, and tell me it doesn’t matter. People on here are very lost emotionally. Forget their advice. ❣️ -

@Joseph Maynor lol can’t imagine what it used to be like then jk -
@outlandish The afteraffects on my system, and system damage were far worse than the trip. And nope. None felt bad. My 5 meo trips meant a lot less to me than their subsequent aftermath to me. The trips were quite irrelevant in fact. Including the breakthroughsZ the breakthroughs only helped my vision open up.

@outlandish Yep. Around 7 times 3 “break throughs” One time did it on ayahuasca. Really messed me up.
