@Carl-Richard I’d say that’s true. Who isn’t? It’s also false from Gods perspective. There are states where you realize growth is imaginary. There’s no difference between sadhguru and a wasp. It’s not a true true for a false false but has layers and lines and lenses and contexts

@Carl-Richard Seemed like you were saying a little more than that.

@Carl-Richard Well… Theres a seminar on X theres a meditation retreat Yoga retreat contemplation retreat psychedeic retreat There are simply different types of spiritual tools and practices. Imo

@Carl-Richard lol, uhh looking up bridging heaven by Rak Rassam. Theres plenty of spiritual retreats utilizing psychs…

Why?

@Breakingthewall Good points. I want to break free to the point where I’m earning decent money doing my own thing. Life purpose whatever

@Leo Gura Thanks, I noted you talk about that near the end. Thanks for another great video ol boy. Felt like the audio book version of The Tao Te Ching jk

@Breakingthewall Well, I’m talking about my reactions to his video, on his forum. Trying to understand exactly what he means when his actions contradict his words. idk, fuck it then. I’m primitive to you? Lol

@Osaid I’m still finishing it too

@Osaid hmmm true

“All you need is selflessness and love” Not sex, not money… Well, Leo seems to have lots of money and pursues lots of sex. Hm

Balance. This is exactly what I need. I need balance, and time. I don't know if I can escape from wage slavery... I don't know if I can run a successful online business. I really need balance, wisdom, intelligence.

I do see the profound intelligence in the universe. But, if it's perfect... that must include me and my entire life. I mean, clearly there is a sublime balance. Yeah, It's super hard to see it in ALL things. The imperfection, the boring days, my own failures and money problems. It's all a little strange to think about.

I think it set me back in life. Though hard to say that "It" was the cause. I had lots of trauma and anxiety that lead me to using it for self medicating. It also helped me in lots of ways too. But, reality is better without it. Or it used extremely rarely. I am going 1 year without smoking. Currently 2 months in.

Mushrooms cured my depression (in combination with reading, qigong, working on my life and eating/ sleeping well) 5meo fell me in love with the forgiveness and understanding of all beings no real reason to take them. There are dangers as well. Like confusion and momentary short term stupidity/ forgetting so social norms. So, be careful. It’s gets better once you realize what they are actually doing.

@Leo Gura

?

I’m going to find a way out that is not just “find better wage slavery” ? Im going deep into contemplation with my current resources and my marketing program I paid for. I think the way out is with this program. I just need to stop resisting and moaning about it’s probably price tag. Freedom isn’t cheap.

@Godhead Yeah It is. Or, to develop a healthy stage orange set of habits for business, life style and skill development. Orange core with green skin

@caesar13 aha, I have read and may reread it. But that’s not a book on escaping wage slavery. Not in the sense I’m going to do it. We had to read it in high school. If only I had been wiser then to realize what gold it was.

@Godhead Vishen’s book is really good too

@Kross I fall into this. It’s almost always there a little bit. I find I just have to take action regards. I also find meditate, Qigong, journaling… when I do it in that order I find when I journal I start to think more positively. Not sure why yet. Also, a decent mushroom trip once a month to shed the cobwebs. I also accept that this feeling, or these thoughts happen and I express them to myself or here. I find venting helps in some way. Then I just keep moving forward.

@Nilsi oops, I meant what age was he when he wrote the book in which it had a 400 page bibliography. It’s not an insane amount given his age either nor given his works. ive probably got about 200 books right now… @gettoeflThats somewhat true. It really depends I think. Some fields are complex enough that things still take time to integrate. Also, the last chapter thing is nonsense. I’ve read enough books where the last chapter is a stand alone point that I wouldn’t do that. I would rather instead read the table of contents then skim through the book reading all the headers and sub headers, tables and any text boxes. That’s a better way to get a rough outline at least. Even then, you only what what a book says when I you read it.

@Nilsi Eitherway he is brilliant. His autobiography was written at what age? As a writer of his caliber you naturally read more than an average… which, now that I think of it isn’t hard as most don’t read.

@LordFall ahah you wouldn’t even think it possible likely Hell, maybe you’d be the owner
