Intuition isn’t about emotions strictly. Intuition is an inner wisdom and implicit understanding of something. Emotions can misguide us. But intuition doesn’t do that. You can tell intuition from biases because biases are automatic feelings and thoughts, whereas intuition is about a deeper understanding beyond reasoning and evidence. Think of it like feelings < logic < intuition (or what I like to call super-logic). Leo made a video on counter-intuition. But he really should’ve titled it counter-logical. Because in that video he said things go against how you think and feel. But he didn’t mention anything going against implicit understanding, which is what intuition is in my view. I can sense patterns I haven’t tested before and can understand them. Like how there are infinite states of consciousness. I mean think about it. Leo has his insights through intuition. Intuition is an insight. But insights into the implicit like awakening cannot be explicated. Leo hasn’t travel through all the states of consciousness. Leo hasn’t awakened through all states of consciousness. Leo may have “awoken” relative to a current state of consciousness and is asleep relative to a higher level. This is the spiritual game you can intuitively sense being played even without conscious reasoning. You can believe you reached the highest level of consciousness, but you haven’t. Everyone in the world thinks their level of consciousness is the highest one. Spirituality has taught me that there is no such thing as absolute awakening or enlightenment. Well, technically there is, it is called death. I don’t mean death of an ego while still breathing. I mean DEATH - the return to the emptiness from which you were created from.

You’d be surprised. People with BPD struggle with this severely. That’s why in therapy I work with BPD clients on integrating more logic through Dialectical Behavioral Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy.

I’m a 26 year old virgin. I have my sexual cravings. But I want to save it and give it all to a woman who is worth it - like my dream partner. I just feel like having sex with someone who is below my standards does me more harm. OP should consider socializing with women, going on dates, and use masturbation if needs aren’t being met. I think that’s kind of the whole point of masturbation is to provide ourselves with those sexual needs. Some people who have sex sometimes don’t even get all their sexual needs met when they could through masturbation. But masturbation is stigmatized so people start to stigmatize themselves for things they can’t control. I recommend focusing on socializing and building love and relationships. The sex is just the tip of the pyramid not the foundation.

Yes! ? Self-discipline is everything. You have to focus on going after your highest authentic desires. The desire to have sex just for sex sake is not my highest desire. I would bet it’s not OP’s either. I don’t deny that I have cravings too. I just don’t let them run my life because I know I have a bigger treasure to find and I am not looking into fools gold. One of my highest desires is to find and fall in love with the woman of my dreams. Sex for just sex itself is fools gold.

Right. True meditation is not repression but expression and self-exploration. By meditation I don’t mean sitting on your ass all day. I mean being meditative and mindful while you still do what you need to do. The OP and all of us need to build our lives and go towards our best self. All I am saying is OP needs to incorporate more mindfulness and self-reflection practices while in the midst of talking to women. It sounds like OP struggles incorporating meditation practice into his daily life, especially in conversing with women.But I could be wrong. Meditation is a pointless practice if you can’t continue to do it off the cushion. The goal is to maintain that mindful awareness in all areas of life to the best of your ability.

Multiverse is correct. But they should change the name to infiniteverse or Infaverse - meaning infinite worlds. There is not just one state of consciousness. There are infinite states. The Universe is just a state of consciousness.

Also, I think a potential reason for your neediness on Fridays is because it sounds like you don’t have plans, goals, and things to look forward to on the weekend. Make plans. I’ve recently been doing kickboxing and yoga classes at my gym. You just need to get out more and be mindful of your irrational thoughts and cravings. By the way, get off all those dating apps. I just did that and it felt so freeing afterwards. Dating apps are a trap. It really screws with your mind and standards.

What is the alternative? Acting on every impulse? Not all cravings need to be acted on but that’s besides the point. You need to have a good meditation practice so that you don’t let yourself be ruled by your cravings. The key is to be mindfully engaged in the moment. Notice your neediness and learn to let go of attachments. It’s paradoxical because the men who are most needy will remain with their needs unmet and the men who are most detached will have the most sex. Women sense that right off. You gotta meditate and learn to let go of cravings and not be run by them. Then, go out to the bars and clubs and have mindful conversations and mindful sex. Your not going to win this game of women filling up your cup. You gotta fill it up yourself with personal growth and then you can overflow it with women. “The flower doesn’t dream of the bee. It blossoms and the bee comes.” Trust me, meditation is your food. You have to start with the foundation of building mindset. It’s not wise to put the cart before the horse. After you have sex with 100 women, it still will not satisfy you. What you need is self-love, self-confidence, and taking action in approaching women and building attraction. You need to focus on building yourself into the person you would want to fuck yourself. ? Those are my thoughts. Do what you wish with them.

But what is the point of pleasure? You always do have a choice. You can talk to others or you can live off the grid. You might not live long, but the OP’s logic is that if it all goes back to infinite consciousness, why write a will. And I am saying that it is a contradiction because your children are as pointless as the legal documents in the absolute sense and yet you still care for them and want to protect them. But when it comes to a legal document to provide for them, you shy away. The fact is that the OP had children, so they bare the responsibility of providing for them or they can have DHS called on them. I mean all of it will be a dream, so it is a matter of what kind of person do you want to be in the dream? A Devil or a God? I also would disagree that the point of sex is pleasure. That is debatable. Pleasure is an epiphenomenon of sex- the act of creation. But maybe you could argue that when two dogs are having sex, they aren’t thinking about creation. But subconsciously, nature is about survival and reproduction. A dog doesn’t think about survival, it just does it. It doesn’t have any meaning at all.

Because you don’t have an effective meditation practice?? Your mind is buying into the story that you are needing something from women that you cannot fulfill yourself. Women cannot give you the orgasm of Awakening.

But you don’t apply that same logic across the board. With your logic, there is no point in having children, having sex, talking to others, and even living if everything goes back to infinite consciousness. But your children and house do matter to you. So you would be contradicting yourself by not writing the will.

Yes! Look it up!

Dude. She has BPD!!

Lol! The road to Hell is paved with good intentions! ? All evil is done from good intentions. You clearly haven’t watched Leo’s video on Everyone Acts From Good Intentions.

God and the Devil also invented psychedelics and meditation. ?

I’m not. I am pursuing self-actualization. I think it is dumb to pursue self-deconstruction when I haven’t even built my self up first to begin with. You can’t put the cart before the horse. The only way to awaken is through psychedelics, and I am not ready for that. Also, you can see my post on Awakening is a Self-deception. If Awakening is the absence of duality, that means Awakening and Deception are one. The more I see Leo go deeper into this work, the more I realize that at a higher level of consciousness, all my insights at this level of consciousness are subpar relative to higher levels. Look at his Solipsism insights, Infinity of Gods, Alien Intelligence, and Absolute Insanity. It’s like the higher you go, the more one pulls away from social/human reality. The deeper one goes, the more they realize that their previous level of consciousness was a lie. But your level of consciousness can go up Ad Infinitum. So that means that at an even higher of consciousness, all of Leo’s current insights will be wrong relative to that new dimension of consciousness. Where does it end? It doesn’t. Awakening is a Deception. That is the game I am seeing being played here by all spiritual folks. Edit; Here’s a thought experiment. What if Leo or some serious spiritual seeker tries a brand new psychedelic that contradicts all the insights gained on 5-MeO. How would we know which psychedelic leads to the best true insight? How can we trust the validity of the insights gained on the brand new psychedelic? How about 5-MeO? What if the Devil made this brand new psychedelic to go deeper into Absolute Delusion? How would you tell? How can you verify the truth-validity of a psychedelic when different ones give you contradictory insights? I wish Leo and other spiritual people would deconstruct psychedelics like they did with science and religion. Because at a higher level of consciousness, psychedelics are also imaginary like science and religion??? But saying that everything is imagination means nothing is imaginary and it is all real. If science is imagination, what is it imaginary relative to if everything is imagination? See the problem?

Look up the naturalistic fallacy or the is-ought fallacy. That’s what your doing here. Reality is as it is, but that doesn’t mean you are to act a certain way. Just because it is doesn’t mean you ought.

Sadhguru is also a false mystic. They are all big fat human rats! No rat on this planet has solved the Maze. Rewatch Leo’s video on Life is A Maze. The big fat, Leo mentioned in that video, who gets all the rats to get the cheese for him is basically all your Sadhgurus, Moojis, Buddhas, Leo Guras, Maharishis, etc.

Enlightenment doesn’t even exist because it is a Buddhist concept that is defined as the end or cessation of suffering. But this is a lie. Enlightenment is a myth and a Buddhist fairytale. What does exist is consciousness and an intuitive/implicit understanding of reality. But the Infinite cannot be understood explicitly.

Noises do not occur within a house but always within consciousness.

It’s not about whether you agree or not. It’s about what is actually true! Stop this game!

Lock this thread. The question has already been answered multiple times. We can move our mind onto bigger fish.

You still haven’t answered the question lol. Everyone is playing games!! Especially! Especially, the one who claims one is playing a game! That includes me as well!

How can you trust yourself if you keep setting goals but lack the discipline to follow them through. Thats like saying you can trust a friend who never keeps their promises. Part of discipline is trusting yourself of course. But the trust can only go so far. You need evidence. You know you are doing spirituality well when you can see it is changing your life, making discipline effortless. I didn’t say whip yourself. You said that.
