@Jannes I know you are asking Leo this, but I think 95% of happiness comes from sober practices and holistic life building.

Guys, do be careful with this substance! Especially if you are a newbie. It can lead to a lot of weirdness. I took me awhile to integrate the experience maturely. Since then, and I know what it is I can do it more often (which is still rare). Anyway, when you break through to a full realization remember I said hello and thank you.

I have found going to meetups and socializing in general leads me to meeting girls. I am honestly not interested in clubs, so I go my own way. We are often to pent up in our houses and apartments but we just need to go out and meet people. Perhaps, as I grow I will be more comfortable with cold approaching people but, I just don't like it for now. Networking and socializing is my goal this year. I find going to a meetup group, leads to more connections and then more connections and more opportunity for meeting quality girls. Who knows.

That would be so silly. You guys need to stop demonizing pain and suffering. Embrace that reality is made up of Yin and Yang and both are to be experienced in human life. With the recognition that happiness is not unconditioned, study the conditions required for human happiness and work long and hard to achieve it. That being said, there is relative wiggle room and you can be less conditioned with your happiness. Just, don't expect it to be an absolute.

@emil1234 Vape pens are very safe and convenient. Be careful with tripping to regularly especially in the beginning as it can lead to user error, and even instability that can negatively effect other areas of your life. It's important to do a holistic approach to this work with the frame work of Integral Meta Theory imo for mature integration of the higher state. It is an enlightenment experience and a highly consistent tool for the experience.

There is a kernal of truth in them, but focus on your sphere of control. You won't magically change politics.

@Yimpa Posting high from a lower perspective, imagine that!

@Butters Your ego clearly isn’t in control of things outside your control.

@Inliytened1

@Inliytened1 why you imagine gruesome things?

@Butters Because Politics shapes everything in human society. You are in a group of humans. Being able to see reality clearly should involve a holistic perspective. You may value reading Ken Wilber's Towards A Radical Wholeness. Waking up is only one aspect of human development. Understanding politics is a form of growing up.

Imagine if in order to understand a higher perspective you would have to go to school for 4 years. Demonizing is way easier.

Leo is learning all the time. I think his views did change.

Are you posting high?

Thanks for sharing the list of points you made in the recent video. I actually was going to ask for this list.

@Buck Edwards You can prompt it for prompts. Also, speaking to it like a person can create interesting results.

It depends how you are using it as well.

@LostSoul Enjoy!

If you objectively review someone actions from a calm, centred place and find them cheating, lying, defrauding, killing, stealing, raping, destroying, etc… maybe that’s a devil? But that isn’t demonizing?

One time I shot a lightning bolt out of my hand and knocked over a garbage can…

@The Crocodile hmm, I disagree.

@LoneWonderer Hey, sorry I didn't respond to your post directly right away. I think it's worth approaching demonizing others, and being honest with ourselves when we do it and see others do it. Self compassion, introspection, curiosity, patience are all key.

@The Crocodile Not necessarily. I wouldn't say it implies it absolutely.

Higher and lower are also relativistic terms. Perhaps calling people devils can be done from higher or lower positions and the highest of perspective would consider any calling people devils a lower perspective.

Good point. Though, I do believe subtle distinctions can exist here. Devilry is essentially selfishness and the result of lower perspective. Demonizing however is attributing bad Intention without understanding full the other side.
