I'm beginning to think that geography can play a big role in which countries can either benefit or degenerate from leftist policies.

@louhad In your words, what makes a Trump supporter a Trump supporter? And why here, when you could find out elsewhere?

@louhad Just curious, what are you trying to get out of this thread?

@Dutch guy Best to not let people trigger you. People's opinion's about you are irrelevant.

@Dutch guy EU and European democrats aside, I would've sided with them had they actually delivered more than just had a discussion that goes round and round in circles going nowhere. However, for the past 40 plus years of fishing on British channels, using fishing trawlers that damage corals, is another reason I don't like the EU, Not only that, they act as if Britain belongs to them, just like any other European country which is disrespectful because, without the help of the UK and USA, they wouldn't be able to win against the Germans during WW2. Because of our help, EU was a possibility, and the thanks we get is fishing trawlers pillaging our channels and much more. That aside, do you side with Trump because he came off as more assertive than the other politicians?

There will always be extreme groups on either ends of the spectrum.

That's not nice.

@louhad I sided with Trump mainly because out of most of the politicians at that time, he was more assertive than his opponents and strong in delivering his points across, and as a business person, I assumed he would take a more practical and straightforward approach towards change. I lean towards conservatism, so that could've influenced my support for him. I'm not American, so I couldn't vote for him. Also, I remind myself that people's opinions are irrelevant when the opinion is about me, others, or the world. Because of that, when I want to share an opinion, I'm more careful with it, also because ' what you are to people are what you communicate' so when I see someone post that contains derogatory or mocks another, I get alert. For example, these two posts here.

Hi there Leo. It's been roughly 7 years since I followed your content and during that time I was getting better with visualization. Lately, I seem to struggle to feel more of the emotions in my vision. A video about visualization and vision and being emotional is probably really good to do right now. If it's not too much to ask, understanding emotions part 2, please? Thanks.

@Insightful27 Drawing, tai chi, chi gong, yoga, listening to different and similar songs, cooking, Baduk, and any other board game, poetry/storytelling, creative writing. To name a few, maybe I'll come back with some more ideas.

@Nak Khid And This is your answer to your question. Similar to mine.

@stopwow How you've interpreted my post as an insult is a mystery to me, but I'll clarify myself simply and leave. I meant that if you're seriously struggling with dating, relationships and it's mostly external circumstances, then be ok with what you have at the moment, be grateful, even if you remain single and have to find other ways of sexual release. Actually, you need to develop a stronger desire, especially when circumstances are stacked against you. Don't throw out intention too early. No need for a vicious attack at me, but ok, I don't know anything about you, so sorry for triggering you. Let's agree to disagree and I'm backing out the door slowly now...

@remember No worries. Like I said, under development How have you been? I hope you're ok. Whatever it is, it sounds like you're taking a long break. If that's the case, then good break to you!

Hello all. I hoped you all have done those exercises above in section one: developing your mind's eyes. I've done these exercises and felt great re-creating rains and burning leaves. I felt a bit more empathy for the burning salad on exercise 3, and 4 was not just visual but vibrational for me, meaning that it's as if I felt the energies from each color. Let's move on to section 2 of developing your visualization: mind's ear. For some who are experienced with meditation, when they describe a 'ringing sensation' in between their ears, this is what they're referring to. The mind's ear is also what is being used to play that catchy song in your mind, or when you bring up a memory of a conversation, or when you what to mix and match different sounds together. Some people who are gifted and are involved in spiritual traditions use practices like chanting, prayer, mantras, and certain musical instruments to create mystical experiences through their mind's ear, and some psychic and paranormal abilities and entities are associated with the mind's ear, like spirit communication, phantom whispers, mythical or mystical sounds, so much more I can't cover here but I hope this interests you. If you're interested in developing a tulpa, then a strong stable mind's ear is important when listening to your Tulpa communicate, although Tulpae can communicate in other ways than inner voice or mental vocalization. I'll further elaborate when I get to stage 2 on developing your Tulpa. While I think this is important for being able to converse with a Tulpa, If you're not interested, then the spillover effect that develops with a strong mind's ear is tied to visualization. You could visualize musical instruments and work on a song with your band, or practice social techniques in an imaginary social setting, or replicate soothing musical instruments or nature sounds to add to your 'happy place' and so on. There are lots of options to develop later with a strong mind's ear, but if you still struggle to hear mental sounds, they're jumbled or lose tone or lose volume, then it's crucial you still work on identifying each aural weakness and do isolation training on each one. Before I list some new exercises, I would recommend picking up a musical instrument and practice, listen to songs, or podcasts as a leisure hobby and supplementary training for mental sounds. Because of these activities, I've progressed much further. I've written instructions on the original post, so here are some changes: if you can do 5-10 minutes, increase by 5 minutes for each exercise (or 1 if you're really struggling), and please feel free to add another exercise appropriate to what you're working on, in this case, it's relevant to the hearing. However, if you wish, go multi-sensory on some exercises, but beware that you won't progress slightly faster than another that uses deliberate practice on each element of visualization. Exercise 1: Mind radio station. Begin after a meditation session. Start by remembering your favorite songs in your mind and play the songs. At random, switch to another song, either still in the same album or same artist but a different album, or an entirely different genre of music. Try your best to pick out each individual musical element as much as possible. Exercise 2: Nature's calls. Begin after a meditation session. Start by remembering the sounds of different birds, and if you can switch to a different bird song. The optional goal here is to include other natural sounds like the wind, leaves, or other animals if you wish. Exercise 3: Mental talk show. Begin after a meditation session. Begin to remember the voices of your favorite actors/actresses doing a podcast with your favorite host. Try to follow along with the conversations between the host and actor/actress, really listen for volume, tonality, pitch, pace, etc... Exercise 4: Social gathering and small talk: Begin after a meditation session. Bring to mind a memory of either a social event you were in or a location where you're at the cafe or a bench, around other people. Bring to mind every conversation you had face-to-face, with family, friends, or strangers. Listen for pace, volume, tonality,etc. Optional, pretend you had a listening device that allows you to listen further, and eavesdrop on what other people are saying, paying attention to their voices. Exercise 5: Echo location. Begin after a meditation session. Construct a simple urban style home 2-3 stories high, with the lighting between dim to midnight so that the house ad it's rooms are simple. Bring to mind your phone, a chirping bird, and another object you're familiar with. Now, imagine each object scattered about the rooms at random, making a familiar noise, and begin locating the general direction; Is it left? Right? Behind? Ahead? Above? Below? then narrow done the direction some more while walking slowly towards the object. If you want, also note the sound of each footstep you make. Exercise 6: Thunderstormimg. Begin after a meditation session. Imagine a storm developing, then imagine a lightning strike a distance away from you, at whatever direction it came from. Lister to the thunder, and try to not only locate the direction, but also the distance between you and the lightning. Exercise 7: ASMR for the mind. Begin by first listening to an ASMR music, then wait for at least 30 minutes or longer, then after a meditation session. Bring to mind how the ASMR sounded like, as best as you can, to re-create the feels you get from it. That's it for this week. In conclusion, not only is training your mind's ear important for listening to your Tulpa's voice, but it also trains your ability to recall memories of different sounds you've had experienced. Also, this training may develop your musical ears, to the point you could become more creative with sounds. If I'm not mistaken, Leo has recently released an episode about Learn= making distinctions, which his second exercise involves distinguishing multiple types of music genres consciously. To build on that, developing your visualization skills will allow you to keep making further distinctions with each element of that visualization you're developing. Keep going, until eventually that vast difference between external and internal sounds become more and more similar until you reach realistic levels of depiction. Have a good week, hoped these exercises are simple and enjoyable, and never forget; Destiny is ALL!

@Preety_India Both of these exercises are designed to train your ability to replay any scenery, either to rewind or fast forward. Also, to see in greater detail your pictures or movies you make in your mind.

@stopwow Nothing wrong with pursuing relationships or dating. Just remember, if it becomes too difficult, there's always the single life, and there's always another way to sexually release than through a woman.

@Nemo28 Nope.

Can we all just appreciate that he's coming back to boxing, instead of judging him for it?

Aye.

@freeman194673 Nofap is an addiction recovery program, like addiction programs that are designed around obesity, alcohol, gambling, hard drugs, hoarding e.c.t. just that it's fairly recent. Designed for who? Porn is a medium for procreation, as important as drinking and eating. When you've eaten and drank, you feel full and hydrated. Same as porn, you feel a sexual release.

It depends on if you yourself have had 5-Meo-DMT or some other psychedelic, to answer this question yourself. Depending on your subconscious mind, brain chemistry, upbringing, culture, neuro-musculature development (training, skill application, habitual behavior...), and many other factors, means that taking the most powerful psychedelic to date or another psychedelic may or may not result in an immediate change in behavior or in purpose. Also, I don't know enough to say what his potential is or his potential life purpose later in life would be, but I know enough to say he has a mental disorder known as bipolar disorder, if I'm not mistaken, and I've seen him enough to say he's skillful in boxing. These factors may have influenced his decision to take up boxing, and not take on a similar or different career or field to master.

@Arcangelo That's a safe assumption to make, but it's just an assumption. Honestly, people are complex, and We're only communicating with text boxes. I don't know if he's just trolling or is projecting onto me or he/she feels ok to interact with me. People can behave differently when they're close to death, so keep that in mind. Crysty and I don't mind, well mostly her, because I'm taking most of the brunt lol! So thanks anyways.

@Arzack I'm not a psychic or a medium, and despite my experiences with her I don't know what she really is, and when it comes to predictions she can hit or miss, so we both recommend you take action on your health right away and see a professional psychic if you're still interested. Good luck!

@Cocolove You're welcome.

Loa is just as effective as the one applying the principle, so if you really believe it's bullshit, actually it's on you not applying it well.
