This is not "im frustrated about other people not being awake how do i change them" and "I hate cant handle undeveloped people" This is a "how do I nurture this flower willing to learn" That is part of it but she does want to learn its just the critical transition point is not clicking. It sounds impractical to her. I think she needs Tony Robins lol Emotional mastery stuff

5 Stages of Spiritual Awakening... Which Stage Are You In? I just saw this video and it reminded me of how easily people use the word awakening on the forum when what they are experiencing is mostly self-development and a new state of self-awareness or even just altered default states and mood. How do we clarify this? I see alot of people that experienced a increase in self-awareness to then relate to it as "i had an awakening". I guess we can say awakening is a verb to use to describe a increase in self-awareness, but i feel thats a overuse of the word, it should be reserved for something more profound? Give me a clear definition here and how it shows up at different stages of development.

Oh no lol Everything i say is a real time coping mechanism for her that sooths her mind and makes her feel better when stressed. It just doesn't stick long term lol We are not in any conflict and i dont need her to change and there is no stress during our communication, im the therapist. Im asking if there are ways to teach this better?

Leo is a scientist of consciousness, his focus is on Truth so it makes no sense to believe what any other teacher has to say, he has to validate everything for him self. If his conclusions align with another teacher then they are coincidentally in agreement, so far there are not many that align.

That just might be the first time a man has said that. ?

@Aaly The biggest limiting factor is most people are really bad at assessing the quality of a person someone is. So in your search to find that mature man youll go with wtv opportunities present themselves and it will likely be not ideal. People can only date as high as they can see. Immature attracts immature.

How awake is your default state? Or what are the qualities of it that you consider to be awake vs others who are partially-awake? -
Thats not true, you need good opening principles and understanding, + you can get to 2000 with strong tactical and calculation skills. Get your puzzle rating up to 2200 on this site and youll be a monster https://chesstempo.com/. Puzzles should be done with no time limit with the goal of seeing everything before making the first move. If you didnt see a move your opponent made before making your first move of the puzzle consider it a loss even if the puzzle is not, thats the training standard to set for yourself. Memorizing opening is for good players, its useless for people below 2000 what they need is to learn how to think about the opening. Also the reason i recommend https://chesstempo.com/ is because the puzzle generation is based on master level games and sites like chess.com and lichess.org generate based on online blitz games. So you want to expose your brain to the highest quality tactical positions. This influences intuition long term for pattern recognition as its been trained on long time control over the board master level games.
-
Yes but its the fun part, tactical puzzles and self-discovery after 2200 you need to grind. People taking 10 years to get to 2100 are not training effectively they keep repeating the same mistakes and plateau as a result.
-
Chess is fun until you hit the 2000-2200 range because its about tactics, creativity and refining and mastering calculation skills, then after that point you need to seriously study and memories opening and endgames to progress and thats really really boring. Then you easily forget what you memorized during prolonged breaks unless you started young enough so the brain deeply equates chess to survival.

I was mostly trying to understand how to properly use the word. It seems to be used in 3 ways to describe: A non-human god state (temporary then you default back to normal) Used to say that someone in a normal default state is "awake" Used by people who take 1 step into spirituality and change there perspective of life (I had an awakening!) Its not consistent. -
lol Leo wroth it a while ago to help the forum members grow up. We had a misbehavior problem at some point ?

Very cute Healthy Christian explanation. The Father = Source: It is Pure creative energy, the ultimate potential energy, the beginning and the end, the orgin where all creations come from. Holy Spirit = Divine Will: Its the Divine intelligence that conceives and wills things into shapes and into creation. The Son = Divine Expression: Embodiment of Source: Physical representation of source. Form. -

Yes perfect, what about the confusion when we determine if someone is awake or not? A statement like "sadguru is not awake"? -

I agree with what you said but you took what i said out of context. I did not say well look your just irrational get over it. I pointed to santa claus to explain where her epistemology came from, the origin of her belief during the conformity years of her development. -
@OBEler How far apart did you space out the trips of 6mg? Is it possible to already have a tolerance?

If you have no negative side effects from ejaculation then masturbating twice a month should be fine. All i was saying is most people that regulate masturbation get a huge benefit just from stopping porn as it makes all the little things in life more enjoyable. I think it makes more sense to say if you never had a gf and masturbation is replacing human contact then No-Fap is for you. But there are still benefits from avoiding porn and ejaculation for men in relationships, it shows up in quality of life.
-
Fapping to porn is destructive to the mind, most people that do no-fap just get the benefits from that. For others like myself instead of fapping I just have sex when it naturally happens and dont ejaculate. There are no side effects.

Most people use a romantic and sexual attraction to feel a security in there relationships while this is unwise as its unlikely to last, she then says to shift that attention to the tribe (family, friends, everyone). Security is a solid connection with another person that you support and they support you. Reliable Team work. Real Friendship. With family and friends of high integrity you get that security from them and give that security to them. The issue is its extremely hard to find a tribe unless your already born into one. Green unlocks that sense of tribe and willingess to support anyone they meet, its unhealthy when they get taken advantage of by needed people, when they learn from this mistake they balance there personal needs with there tribe support and build a healthy expanded family.

The reason you believe Satan is a external person is the same reason you believed in Santa Clause as a kid. Its also the same reason every fundamental religious person of any religion blindly believes there story book is literally true. They where told it very young and they never questioned it seriously. People are Muslim because they where born in a Muslim family, no other reason, you are Christian because you where born into a Christian environment (no other reason). Its a very simple origin story. The reason you no longer believe in santa clause is because everyone around you made it socially acceptable to stop believing in it. It was illogical AND others agreed. In the case of religion its illogical AND others disagree. So your not getting social validation and have deep fear because of it. -

The bible is a book of metaphors, stories that convey wisdom or teaching in a memorable way just like kids story books. Hell and Heaven taken literally is a place you go to if your good or bad after death. Interpreted metaphorically (and more consciously) it is a state of mind. Most people are living in hell right now on earth, they are miserable about everything, drowning in desire and endless expectations causing suffering, its only when you let go of desire and your selfish ego do you reach the state heaven. To be in heaven is a state of mind you can reach right now, its not a physical place. Christianity and all religions are books guiding people towards enlightenment but because of the low level of development of the average person the message goes way over there heads. The devil and Satan is a metaphor for YOU! Your selfishness is the devil, your distinction between good and bad is devilry, your self-deception is devilry. This video will cleanse your soul. -
Have you ever fell in love before in a relationship that lasted more then 6 months?

Listening to any other teacher besides Leo has been near useless to me over the years. Every teacher suits the needs of different students, its not about better or worse. There is diversity. Look at this one, its deeply unrelatable to how my mind works, but for others its exactly how they think. Her language and how she explains things does not relate to me in any way. I experience her as non-stop miscommunication. "Send light to that memory to heal it" ... ooooooook then thank you for not trying to be understood by a modern human. But maybe this is exactly what Leo needs to heal his body lol Buddhism is much the same, they play alot of games to obfuscate simple things.
