Yes, it's ridiculous. Yea I have the same feeling. It seems a distraction from wars, epstein files, etc.

@Leo Gura Just listened to "Clip #365 - My Process For Generating My Insights And Videos". I did couple courses in a local college for a techical programming topic, and my approach was similar, it's really excausting to prepare lectures weekly, I get why you got exhausted after years of doing that. Also, I'm glad you came up with shorts idea because it doesn't need all that work (as lectures do) as you said, and there's so much value that we get with these as well. One question, I remember you mentioning that you used AI (I think it was Claude) in one of your videos, to point out some stuff in your document before recording. Do you still use it or it was a one time thing?

Listening to this dude is like a fresh air in all these AI hype-fest.

@Leo Gura You mention a word "imaginary" a lot, could you explain in a seperate video exactly what you mean by that? Can I somehow understand that without expanding my consciousness? Maybe clarify that with some metaphor. Like, do you mean it in a sense that a character in my dream is imaginary, like it doesn't exist outside my imagination? Do you use the words imagination and hallucination interchangeably?

@Leo Gura Thanks, much better. The default volume setting was way low, now I can increase it.

@Leo Gura Can we have a volume control setting on vimeo player? I can't increase or decrease video volume at the moment, sometimes I need to.

This looks so good.

Yeah, new age people are full of conformity.

Why do you consider those examples of conformity?

Yeah, they are really heavily leaning towards everything AI.

100 days. Horny. I don't see a point in doing this. Maybe if you are a hardcore porn addict and beat your dick 5 times a day watching porn, yeah, you might need to ease up and give your dick some time to refresh. Do any of you experienced some spiritual or energetic benefits, as many claim?

@Leo Gura "Clip #307" and "Clip #306" pages have the same video.

Man, you really love your porn Share us your collection

Don't you see a difference between jerking off to a boob statue vs having access to tens of thousands of hd porn (from vanilla to all the disgusting fetish stuff) videos that people get addicted from teenage years and ruin their sex lives? Nobody is saying that lust is inherently bad. Lust is an important aspect of survival. In the end it's a problem of a lack of self-control and self-responsibility. But saying that watching porn is normal makes that problem harder for those people to overcome. Our ancestors also had food, but not triple MC cheesburgers and fries.

What's completely natural? Jerking off to porn?

It's an emotional regulation mechanism, an ingraned coping strategy. That's why it's unhealthy and very addictive. It's not a function of having a free time. Doesn't take too much time to be honest.

In what ways?

Yesterday's highlight.

Set goals and work on achieving them, actually do the work, this will increase your self-esteem because it will raise your sense of self-efficacy. Take more responsibility, in any way you can, over many areas of your life. Take care of your body. Figure out what you want out of life and start working towards that. Contemplate why do you even want to be percieved as "alpha" male? But essentially, challenge yourself daily / weekly / monthly / yearly and build up your life, do hard things, do things that scare you initially.

Maybe couple "But Leo"s also slip here and there

Yes definitely for me, not only more creative but also more able in other areas, like my ability to feel emotions amplifies, happiness and satisfaction increases, also motivations to pursue things like relationships, art, creativity, even spirituality, increases. When I'm in the rabbit hole of doom-scrolling plus some dopamine depliting habits, I feel like a zombie. And then when I get to what Leo called 0 sobriety level (a default state) even that's very noticable, not to mention higher states.

Also, it would be nice to tell about your Kriya practice in short, how it benefits you, and why you like it.

@Leo Gura Maybe you could also make one about conscious relationships, non-violent communication, that kind of stuff. Also, in one of the shorts you mentioned that the only way we know how to relate to someone is selfishly. You said that in an intimate relationship, we use other as an object to satisfty our needs, and we call that love and don't even know the alternative ways of relating. So, what's the alternative? Why should we even be in a relationship if not for selfish needs? I think that needs explaining.
