@Futarino Trump and Duterte are similar in a sense, they are Stage Red.

@Serotoninluv If I were American and it's either Biden or Trump, I would vote for Trump. It's because of what I just posted. Everything, including Spiral Dynamics is situational or multidimensional, not linear.

@LfcCharlie4 Have you ever experienced this "complete" teaching? I clearly understand it the same way I conceptually understand Leo's teachings. But I don't take them as truth, let alone preach them. Because I don't see them and have never experienced them.

Elliot Rodger wrote "I, Elliot Rodger am a God." in his manifesto right before he murdered humans including himself in Isla Vista in 2014. He didn't do any inner work. He simply had NPD and had trouble with women. So being an incel with NPD is the real shortcut to awakening and beats psychedelics?

LeoMeans: Self == Other && Leo == you && God == you What methods have you used to generate your insights? Is getting high on psychedelics one of them? If so, I wonder why your insights are different from Leo's.

I love it.

@kieranperez You posted a very long story without telling the reasons why you are leaving the forum. Isn't telling the reasons for leaving the point of posting? Moving to India as the reason sounds senseless.

It is a good example of the limits of thinking and rationality. About the death of his wife, he probably contemplated and took action to resolve his pain. He did his best. Leo clearly says in his most current video psychedelics interferes with the "knobs" of reality. If that's true, psychedelics was what the 97-year-old philosopher needed.

Going all the the way to find Truth seems not worth it. It's very painful, confusing, and risky. But there's really nothing to lose. Death guarantees you have nothing else to lose. Life is more of a tragedy than beauty. And to die without knowing yourself, your life, and reality is another tragedy. There's much to learn from Herbert Fingarette. What a short, but beautiful documentary.

But you said you could see how Jesus manifested fish and bread just by imagining them into existence.

Yes. I see it.

@Romer02 Thanks. But I'm not a native speaker of English. Where am I from? I won't tell. Just guess.

@Keyhole I love it.

God is not sleeping. All the horrors you have seen have been disgustingly predestined by God. How did I know? Read this. Now use the same logic or mechanism on how those "mentally ill" people are there in the institution treated like shit. Nothing is random. There are always forces behind one thing existing or happening. Now think about your "mentally ill" family member. There's no way he or she could have not been that way. And I'll tell you three of the forces which made your family member ill. Force 1: He or she got your parents' genes. Mental illness as well as all the other human characteristics is highly genetics. Genes determines what's possible and what's not. Force 2: He or she was abused by your parents (consciously or subconsciously) during childhood, probably was scapegoat. If it's a nasty mental illness like anxiety disorders, multiple personality disorders, or psychosis, it's certainly or almost certainly linked to childhood abuse (mental-emotional, verbal, physical, other abuse). Parents deny this of course. But if they just deeply investigate how they raised their children and be very honest about it, the truth will be revealed. Siblings also participate in the abuse. So do some self-introspection. Force 3: Your family member's self-love has been destroyed as a direct result of Force 2. The same structure applies even if the family member is one of your parents. I do not mean to disrespect you or your parents. But I do mean to destroy the bullshits of parents and psychiatry. Mental illness is not caused by a chemical imbalance. Chemical imbalance is a direct result of the forces I mentioned. It is also my intention to reveal and honor truth.

@Prabhaker Jesus might really be on the same page as Osho and Sadhguru.

I think what Eckhart is talking here is similar to Stoicism, Laotzu-ism, and Leo's "winging it 24/7". But it's very confusing. Is it really possible to implement? Why make a distinction between the Universe's plan and the ego's plan? Why not creation by the ego as the Universe's way of creation? After all, the Universe created the ego. Are there any real-life examples of "winging it 24/7"? Did Bill Gates create Microsoft by the Universe's will or his ego's will? It was probably through his ego's will. But why is Microsoft very successful and impactful? Isn't that an evidence that the Universe created Microsoft through Bill's ego?

So it was unsustainable. How long did you do this technique? Will you do it again in the future?

Yes. You and I need to grow more and things will probably become clearer. But remember, the goal is to simplify things, not complicate. Being simple and direct is high-level beauty.

I don't know whether you're a Christian. But I see you point. It's sensible.

It doesn't answer the question. The goal is to simplify things, not complicate.

@Leo Gura How could you not answer such a very relevant question? Saying "I don't know" is ok. Being inauthentic is not.

It seems awakening by lsd or pyschedelics is experiencing happy hallucinations. Most people would think she's simply high on drugs or she's psychotic.

Is this the point where Jesus, Osho and Sadhguru are at now? Is there anybody alive aside from Sadhguru who is at this point?

@RevoCulture You mean you basically disagree with Eckhart? Do you have insights about the topic which are deeper than his? And what are your answers to the questions in the original post?

@Elham I am horrified thinking about the horror the pilot and the passengers experienced while the airplane was crashing to the ground. It was a completely horrifying and undignified death. But don't let this horror you did not create break you. You need to be stronger and more resilient than the devils and psychopaths responsible for this tragedy. If somebody needs to break, it's them, not you.
