  1. Adeptus is more a vocal critic than a 'Troll' Perhaps at time "Troll like"
  2. I especially like how the young sage goes through a lot of ups and downs as he confronts "dying" at 17. His depression and short term 'madness' etc I saw in myself, and others who pursue awakening. I also enjoy how epic his meditations, the process and steps of purification and cultivation he embarks on and the sheer grit and wisdom this young person has. Very good book to inspire you to do spiritual work and also some of the challenges that can arise. The three taoist wizards who are training him: The wizard of Emptiness, Pure Serenity and Infinity is their title/ attainments. They are passing along their wisdom to the next hold of the Dragon Gate Lineage.. The 18th person to be handed this wisdom. I like also how he does these intense meditations, and also linking to Qigong and other taoist inner alchemy practices. I found it very inspiring. For me meditation, Qigong, etc are really crucial for my spiritual work. Increasing my awareness, improving my circulation of Qi, mindfulness, etc are really important aspects of my path and pursuits. I love Leos work for more the awakening side of thing but I think taoism has a lot to offer my relative existence and spirituality.
  3. Opening The Dragon Gate This is an amazing book for people looking to learn what it takes to go really far into spirituality. It doesn't address psychedelics but from what I have read so far you will find it inspiring and eye opening to the risks, challenges and rewards that deep practice can bring.
  4. I appreciate Nahm. But sometimes found him like, subtly spiritually combative with the whole "Thats just thoughts" thing. I also fall into this fruitless sort of banter so whatever Thats just thoughts is just thoughts too. So, what are we gonna do? Mod or not Mod, he is a good contributor to the forum. Overall, Nahm is a great person to learn from I think.
  5. No, It's a love machine With great wisdom comes great love, great acceptance and great joy. But, the first steps can be a doozy.
  6. @Leo Gura people were excited for a new video plus this one seems to have had a lot of anticipation in general. Double whammy.
  7. I managed to buy a reverse osmosis machine new and half price. here is the water. The left is clean and the right it the waste water… these filters last two years. I think it’s a good investment in my long term health. Also, I use a stainless steel kettle and avoid plastics and non stick pans.
  8. Sorry I know I can fall into that sort of banter. I’ll try to realize it and stop it. It’s rarely fruitful.
  9. @Leo Gura I have had this direct experience/ realization and it’s taken me time to accept
  10. @Jakuchu What happened to you not being that childish? no offence. Check your self biases. People are at different stages pursuing different stuff.
  11. @Leo Gura maybe they are selfish but also having people soaked in peace and practice likely has positive ripple affects in the planet you aren’t addressing
  12. @Jakuchu Not in an arguing sense. There is and isnt this work is a paradox ☯️
  13. Note: Get back to focusing on the work
  14. ? He explicitly told you not to and you would be banned. Again, selfishness. I find that response almost saddening.
  15. Is that an actual quote? “Do it my way or your doing it wrong” is basically what your saying. Look. The first thing you are told to do is read the guidelines before you post. The funny thing here too is people upset because they can’t do shady things in the pm. Leo doesn’t wanna look at your pms. But he needs to maintain the integrity of his work and forum. I trust him on that. really the forum should be focused on the work we are doing not petty personal stuff. The mess we are going through is good. Going to weed out the weaknesses of the forum and people who don’t really value what is being done here.
  16. Treat the PM on the forum like a thread between two people. It’s not a social media platform or an anything goes place.
