This is going nowhere. Most stage greens don't act like the video, but a few extremists do, Worse, they can easily start canceling other people with little to no effort, and cause a lot of damage to their start up businesses, until the accused are proven innocent later. It's these types that are the ones to look out for. While the video, and some users here are also straw manning stage green, conservatives are straw manned here as well, and that's not real conservativism.

@Zion I haven't made any video, other than a 2 min video of a selfie a few years back, yet I'm aware I bring to mind that moment of filming, in a dim lite room, and speaking in the English language I have grown up listening, writing, speaking and reading in, to use as a vehicle to make a short point. I bring to mind those few phrases, with my expressions, and am getting aware that certain words I phrased, when I mean them, are far entangled with my life experiences than what is meant in their dictionary definitions, even though my mind does connect them to definitions, my mind far more connects with images, sounds and feelings experienced and remembered, and the harder meanings I emphasis with my body. I'm also aware, as I'm typing, how hard it is to type properly instead of with a few fingers, and I start remembering times I used to find it more difficult in the past. While reading the 2 question, I apply more mindfulness, and see that I make sense of this question when my mind both remembers and imagines in images, the why is like a detective or philosopher, asking the reasoning of why this is a weapon? With truth, I make sense of it with some image of science, brain, big bang or some logical symbols in math, and the word label, as a plastic label. How I make sense of this object's self reference, is seeing the plastic label, containing an image of big bang, or brain, or the word 'truth, replaced and super imposed with another image exactly like it. Along side it, a plane with the reflection of that object, is another way my mind makes sense of this question, with a visual answer. A phonetic answer would be copying the mysterious sound back. I also am getting more aware that this really depended on my frequency of using this language, in conjunction to the life experiences I internalized. The third question, I sense begs the question, to look for more definitions or words similar to truth, to find better wording, but I sense this will take a lot of reading to articulate accurately what you want, in terms of English wording. The 4 question, my mind both brings to mind a feeling of certainty, after my action pushed an object to the correct direction, and a positive emotion, as signs of feeling a truth. There's a feeling of more security, confidence and happiness, emotionally, that both of being right, and the truth being there. The 5 question I sense a incongruency in it, following from question 4. Visually, an image of God, an old man on the clouds, comes to mind, along with some wind or thundering, and a feeling of air pressures. Yet, this as a feeling is inaccurate, because there's less feelings of security, confidence and happiness with that image of God compared to the feelings of higher certainty, security and confidence in the big bang and brain. Yet, both largely are second hand, I haven't seen an old man on a cloud directly, and the brain directly, probably due to the increase in volume and internalization of the later images. I also am aware of my gradual lack of labels, due to how abstract and fluid mental labels are, as there are multiple languages to describe one object. @Oliver Saavedra How my mind makes sense of this why not question, is mostly negative. There are scenarios I see saying why not, from opening a door, to beating down someone that annoys, to doing a daily habit that's new, to not meditate a day. Why not as sounds, are either quiet weak sounds, to positing an absence of them, and the mind voice does not like this possibility. In feelings, they range from apathy, to grief and fear. a decrease in pressure, or the absence of a touch, also comes up. @EnlightenmentBlog Although, labels depend on the volume and repetition externally and internally, to makes sense of a thing, I also realize that culture plays a big role in building up this moment of getting the pointing to make sense, a direction to makes sense, and an object like the moon to make sense.

@The0Self I train every day, only calisthenics, with some basic and advanced tension manipulations in my muscles, and do 2 to 1 days per week of complete failure. I'll give your advice some consideration for the future, but right now I'm getting much better results from this guy,

I've come across an interesting video on properly using tension to build muscle and maintaining fitness, which is an interesting paradox to Leo's use of Tension = unconsciousness, and on his view of muscle structure in his latest blog on health. Here is the video in question: What are your thoughts on this? It's interesting how paradoxical it is, because I've used some of this information from this guy, and after working with generating muscle tension, and working on mind and muscle connection, some of my health issues auto correct when I improved on that tension control. The question then becomes, for me, is what is wrong with tension overall, or is Leo referring to a specific tension being bad?

@Jayden Jones No advertising and scamming in here, thank you.

From what I have heard, the EU Medicines board did not recommend pausing the vaccination campaign - in was politicians in some EU member states that did that. Also the number of blood clots were 17 in 17 million, which is 1 in a million which is lower than in the general public before Covid 19. The only reason why the blood clots were noticed is because the people who received the AstraZenica vaccine were carefully monitored whereas those who did not receive the vaccine were not, although the rate for them is slightly higher, and there is still no incidation that the blood clots are connected with the vaccine. To put this into perspective, the risk of dying after taking the vaccine is 1 in 1 million, and it has been found to protect 100% against Covid 19 deaths or serious Covid 19 illness. On the other hand, if you do not take a vaccination, there is a 1% chance of death or serious illness. This means you are 10,000 times more likely to die or have a serious illness if you do not take the vaccine.

@Jaccobtw A video about AstraZeneca, and it's a pretty good explanation of it.

This is just pure stupid and criminal for attempting to have tighter regulations on vitamin D when such a supplement could have a net positive on the immune system's ability to handle the virus. Vitamn D = healthier body. Why is this so hard to understand?

@Elevated The one on AstraZeneca isn't really true, about the blood clot. They found some of the patients already were suffering with them prior to being vaccinated, and the EU are circulating this story because theirs were not effective, and instead of pushing for a compromise and making contracts to have Britain ship over the vaccines ASAP, they decide to suspend shipment due to 'side effects' of the vaccine. Very soon, a third wave of the virus is being predicted to hit Europe again, so to me the risk they took of not getting vaccinated soon, will cost them even more. Very much like national pride, EU's pride is wounded, and any form of help would be another slap in the face. They even recently are trying to shut down vitamin D supplementation! Are the people in charge living inside virtual worlds?

@Husseinisdoingfine And you'd be just fine being ruled by China? They have a certain way of dealing with minorities that should make your skin crawl, being ruled by such a system. I can't even bring myself to troll about China, because it's that disgusting to make light of this situation.

Lovely find! I'm definitely checking this out.

@SM-OConnor I've found that taking up a practice of tulpamancy does help with the loneliness and dread part. Though I speak for myself here. Another is taking a break and looking at life again, start dreaming bigger, and figure out the next evolution of my vision. Another is brainstorming new ways of bringing more life into past passions and hobbies, finding ways to combine them. Generally, get back into your roots, into basic self help again if you want, and spend time there. Go and check out Leo's blueprint on motivation, and develop that skill of willing motivation in yourself, that's super powerful and useful, and don't let anything stop you training that. This skill helped a ton with my life. Then after some time has passed, and you settled down, do the advanced techniques, get into spirituality more, with a stronger inner world and inner things with consciousness, you'd be more prepared for bigger insights and dealing with things and places being figments of imagination because, well, tulpamancy has you develop the sense of dealing with figments of imagination intentionally at the very least, along with some benefits that are not expected, At least this is working for me.

@Vision The cooking process removes the lectins from the oats. From my experience, my leaky gut and diarrhea stopped when I slowly transitioned away from my normal breakfast to oatmeal breakfast. And not just oats, but what you mix with them can help or worsen a condition. I used to drink whole milk and had cereal with them years ago, but that contributed to my gut issues. I transitioned to special skimmed milk, and I see for the past 5 years that as a mix, and occasionally use milk alternatives like almond or hazelnut milk, not only correct my gut, but weight loss and muscle recovery as well. I also use peanut butter, butter, sometimes cream, cinnamon, sometimes nutmeg, sometimes cacao powder, and tea honey with hive mix. As a breakfast, so far, my energy not only boosts but is stable throughout daylight. My drink is sometimes tea, sometimes coffee, and lately it's been me mixing the two together, coffee tea, and water throughout the day. I have also significantly reduced junk foods and micro wave foods. My lunch and dinners vary with availability, but I try to snack on fruits in between if I can. The only consistent food is the oatmeal I have. I don't know exactly what is inside the oatmeal, but my leaky gut problems went away from eating oatmeal, maybe it's the fiber intake or something specific to the oats I eat, but normally fiber can help, or eating specific types of food. I suggest cooking using a steel pan, and if you can try not using the black or chipped black pans, or the micro wave to heat the oatmeal. I sometimes use micro wave or steel pan because I do me. Of course, it's especially complicated with my body, because growing up my childhood I ate Indonesian cuisine and their typical foods in their culture, mixed in with western junk food like KFC and McDonalds. After moving from there to the UK, I grew up on their typical breakfasts, foods like fish and chips, steak and kidney pudding, while still having some foods from Asia and yes, KFC and McDonalds, only now it's more burgers and pub foods. Oh, and it's here I started eating serials. Also developed a taste for seafood, for prawns and fish. Went to Brazil, had their foods, really loved their meat buffets and seafoods there, Went to America, and it's just all kinds of foods at this point, sometimes larger portions. In terms of foods, I do like the breakfasts, they have variety and some good sized portions, but boy, I wouldn't suggest drinking coffee with orange juice and pancakes together. My food craze settled down around my time in North America, and it's there I started slowly making my diet more cleaner, like reducing the junk foods, drinking more diet sodas and water, stuff like that, about 8 or so years of this slow transition to healthier foods, and the next 5 years here in the UK was the same slow transition to healthier foods, I don't know, maybe my ancestry involved eating bark or oats of some kind, like wild oats. Probably my genes from both Europe and Asia, or my exposure to so many cuisines my body can handle oats pretty well. Who knows, I know my body is happy.

Some differences between Taiwan people and mainland chinese people:

Found a great video analyzing escalating tensions between China and Taiwan: What do you guys think about this video?

@aurum That's right, Vegansim is just a tiny step in a staircase, not the whole solution. Only a tiny part among many other solutions. Those types of documentaries, while might have value, can scar and shame people into turning Vegan, which is not the best because now they are listening to fear and social shaming rather than any genuine signals in their body to change diets. If a plant based diet works in your system, after the adaptation phase is done, then great, but some systems can't handle this diet. However, all the thought stories of animal suffering and environmental destruction in the mind will over ride genuine signals in the body that the body is in crisis and the diet is not integrating well. If the signals are continually ignored, the body will keep signaling, until a health crisis results. Veganism also is not humanitarianism nor is it environmentalism and moralism.

@1liamo78 Are you pro free will? Do you happen to be a solipsist?

@EnRoute If I'm not mistaken, they also had some skirmishes with Indian soldiers along the border at the mountains. China is just pure evil at this point, there's not a lot of good things to say about it, maybe the takeaway, but even that's bad.

@integral Same, but I wouldn't call veganism holistic ideology, just ideology. Still there's some good health wise, more than the moral side.

@Enlightenment I can imagine that if the form is immortal, and there's something wrong in it, then because it can't die, it stays forever with that damage. That's brutal. At least with a one life, or with after lifes and reincarnation, that death realises the consciousness in that thing to move on. Staying stuck forever in a form, to me is the worst of all things that could happen.

Update: In one of our sessions Crysty brought in some flowers.

@Blackhawk I've tried, and it seems most people are just not ready, or are living different realities. I might later test out a different entity I've created recently, so we'll soon see if it's successful at night time. While I'm still researching, I could see some potential for this to go far. I'll be journalling this project seperately from this thread

@acidgoofy This is similar to what I had experienced.

@Breakingthewall 1. Each person's mind and body are unique. No matter how universal the effect a psychedelic has, is being filtered by each mind and body differently. Mine adversely affected my sleep cycle. 2. My particular use is different from Martin's, yet I suffered very similar symptoms. 3. My choice and risk assessment in sharing my experience. Remember that they are still illegal for the most part. In the end I have to watch my own back. 4. Can't link the thread on the device I'm using but the user was sharing a psychedelic experience, and it was locked and the user was banned for sharing dangerous combination of psychedelic with a spiritual technique. Reading it through, I do agree, because the user was advocating large doses in combination with other psychedelics with a spiritual technique. I also had a new psychedelic, which is rare and hard to come by, and I too did it in an unusual way, but I decided I would be better off keeping this to myself, until I see other trip reports mentioning this psychedelic.

@jjer94 I've had that before, with time slowing down. It eventually passes away, but seek help if it persists a long time.
