I have 2 aunts that keeps pushing me about this stuffs every time I visit them. I am close with their children and at some point, this becomes a hindrance during our dinner because I don't like talking stuffs like this, I just nod with the conversation so that we can move on other things. Of course their children are also controlled by their church every Sunday. How do you deal with Christians in your circle of family and friends when they talk stuffs like this? I know Bible has its own merits and truths, but like everyone else here on the forum, I don't like looking at only one source. What is your grounded interpretation about 'Second Coming of Christ?' Thanks

I just watched this today too! I cant stressed enough how much I loved it ! Gonna spread it to family and friends! Never felt like this on a pixar movie since Toy Story 3, Up, and Wall-E.

Hi everyone! Has any of you have experiences online with chat servers like Discords especially those 'spiritual servers' that have egotistical Admins? I got kicked from one of the server earlier because of some sensitive topic. I guess I need to learn my lesson to keep my mouth shut when it comes to advance topics like Psychedelics and Religion. To give you an idea, I've been watching Leo's video for a year now. I had my 1st Ayahuasca experience early this year. I can attest to say that most of what he shares on his channel are accurate. I am not saying all though as I'm yet exploring still (currently into NonDuality/Oneness). So with the server I mentioned, I've been with them for the past, lets say 3-4 months now. The server is not that active with people chatting, its like 2-3 people a day along with the one admin. To cut long story short, we were talking about Psychedelics.. The admin showed up and expresses his long story about his childhood and psychosis. You could say, his personal experiences shaped his perception about psychedelics in general and gave it some stigma. I was sharing my experiences about how Ayahuasca, but he continues his projections. At this point I can say that maybe the topic about Psychedelics in general re-opened his past experiences that he became unstable to handle comments. Then the topic shifted to Religions saying he only follows Christianity and Buddhism, he doesnt felt like idoling a statue etc... I kinda say 'You drew the last straw, have a nice day everyone" I don't know why I still continue keeping up with that server to be honest. Maybe because its Discord and its easy to just chat with someone on a whim while having other gaming servers up and switch around. He drew the last straw because I thought 'wow, this guy thought the world revolves around him'.. I mean its his server, but damn there are still people so blind in 2020, I guess I put too much faith on humanity ei? It put my mind in ease just by typing all of these.. Now I dont know if I will search for another spiritual groups on discord or something lol. I'm glad this forum exist though. That alone is enough. Thanks Leo! Thoughts? Guess you cant fully know someone until you touch his sensitive side. Can you say that a person's spiritual maturity comes with on how he/she handle situations? Like kicking someone out of nowhere because he/she can't stand his projections bouncing back to them.

That's all I needed to hear. I was anticipating for your response tbh Leo! Yeah after this experience it's a no no no no no. I missed traveling, all this COVID thing is making it harder to go out!

@neutralempty It is also likely his brain has been twisted from childhood on by neuroleptics. BINGO! He got forced to be medicated for 2-3 years, so it makes sense now. To be honest, I'm not feeling bad with the experience. I think its something that needs to happened especially for him. I will just continue reading books and such I guess and continue for my own truth.

@neutralempty Thanks for the response! You're quite good! The entire story is being him and his psychosis. The fact that you mention that he doesnt accept it is very true, because it felt like its his conviction that no one can shake him on that well-built belief. From my perspective on the situation, I just bounce back what he needs to see until I got thrown out. I do not mean to offend him. I was talking with him with other spiritual stuffs for a couple of months ago, just on/off.

This experience taught me how people's beliefs/stories about themselves can entirely have an effect on their outlook in life in general. I'm grateful I saw Leo's videos a year ago and been on a continued journey of Self-Actualization. I've wished them best in advance before I have a plan to leave the server, the emotions earlier was intense, was happy that I got off the hook early.

He told me that he got this 'psychosis' from stress from his family, growing up, etc. I told him that everyone on this planet has a similar or tragic story as well.. But what I dont comprehend is that he kept projecting his story just to tell others that Psychedelics are double edge sword (which is true, I dont deny that, there are stories I've read).. It felt like he blames the people around him, and its not always a good idea to put blame on others. He follows Buddha because 'You cant rely on others'. So it's the same principle he does on his server. Cutting people, even wrong ones. You know, I'm glad Im out of that server, the moment he shared his story, I was suffocating and the only way out is leaving the server, Im glad he did the initiative. So much unstable people I've seen throughout the month of November o_O

Ah the so called' Sharpening the Knife'.. I tried this before... but I cannot continue doing it for days lol.. However, I do the NoFap thing right now.

I used to consume it before when I'm on a Night Shift, making sure to sleep around 4-5am before the sunrise to make sure I have uninterrupted sleep. Now that I regained my normal body clock, I don't take it anymore. It's at the side of my bed anyways and only when I need it. But I agree with people here, balance is the key.

Yes brother. I believe he has an awakening, but monetizing it at that point. After he got mad, it felt like I wasted his time and energy because I tend to ask him alot of questions back then. I'd like to clarify that I knew what I'm suppose to be doing at that time, just that maybe I was looking for a validation from other people that what I'm pursuing is the right thing. Basically confused from the chaotic world that we lived in. My heart tells me to pursue my dreams but my mind says otherwise. That was alot of teaching for myself about people in general, I'm used to be so naive. Anyway, don't cha worry! Before Leo, I also checked Teal Swan and Ralph Smart. For Teal, I started around 2 years ago with her Shadow Work stuffs, it was good. For Ralph, for the feel good vibes, but recently it felt repetitive so I dont watch him much often, though I loved his style, it makes me smile I will check Aaron again just for you guys! I will give him a chance, maybe he will shed a light on some of my queries before. I just checked him now, I love his take on psychedelics. He talks so well as well and I loved podcast! EDIT: Can Psychedelics Help Us Heal? // HTP Clips -- Nowadays though, I tend to only watch when needed. After like many years of soul searching, its better to get the best kind of information from within.

I saw my sister used it last Christmas just dancing crazy and everything during our travels. Few days ago when we talked i told her about the scary things about the app and how it can tracked you etc.. She immediately uninstalled the next day and it was hilarious lmao.

I'd like to share my insights as well. I encounter Victor Oddo back then as the same time I was watching Ryan Cropper (does anyone knows him? his niche on youtube is about astral projection, but I get a good vibes with the guy. I'm still subscribed to his channel still but not nowadays after seeing Leo's a few years ago). I believe 3 of them, Leo, Viktor and Ryan met in Rythmia and has collaborations a couple of years ago. Viktor's content back then is more on sharing stuffs about his awakenings and life experiences and I kinda outgrew his channel in the long run and don't watched him anymore, I agree that someone mention his energy updates, I used to watch them. Then few months after, Doughty became Viktor's friend. Tried watching his content, but I got turned off by his click baity video thumbnail as well as the basic LoA stuffs that I kept hearing over the few years. Both of their audience is basically newly awakened ones so I started to drift off from them. Then, I joined to another spiritual teacher on youtube back (Transformational Coaching). Enrolled on his 'supposedly free' group mentorship program. There were free stuffs I got like having a x3 Session on Zoom, I jot down questions to ask him on every schedule. From what I recall the answers that I got were vague and felt incomplete, that's why I joined the group mentorship program. Cut long story short, I kinda bailed out on the group mentorship because I sense that there's a hidden scheme that we need to pay afterwards and it happened! I dont recall how much it was, but I think its around $100. His reasoning since he can't do 1 x 1 now due to his increasing clients, hence group mentorship. He got mad at me and trying to persuade me to continue the course, I explained that I have upcoming travels and I need to focus on that. I added him on facebook before the mentorship and all, I thought I can just become his friends, but I guess I have a different expectations since he treat his channel and his work as pure business. I learned alot from this experience that's why I did alot of traveling and soul searching during these years. Like I cannot just push myself and find people who are like me, some people on youtube are just purely for business. I understand that, but still.. Then, I discovered Aaron Abke during the time when I have enough of spiritual teachers on youtube because of an experience above. I check some of his stuff before and think it was great, but the timing was off and I think I also followed him on his facebook, but eventually removed myself. Then I am here, Leo kinda shifted the gear for me with newer perspective esp with Spiral Dynamics.

Are you me? This has been my dilemma for the past few months. I tried to ignore our usual group conversation because it really felt for the longest time that I outgrew them, for like many years already. When we hang out, we watch a movie, but they dont to share things on a deeper perspective. You know, the usual funny and surface level convo. When we watched Frozen 2, it felt like I'm the only one who understand the spiritual meaning of the movie. After watching a movie, we usually hangout to a friends place for a another tv series marathon, usually they like to watch horror, iunno I dont like much violence nowadays. Just like you, only surface level stuffs. We have a group chat that I ignore for a couple of months now, until 1 friend of the group (the peacemaker/mediator of all) ask how am I doing and eventually I got suck back to the group. Guess what? its still the same, like I Was expecting to change really ugh. I do not stress myself about this nowadays though.. I decided last time that they will be no longer be part of my inner circle as I will only keep those who are worth my time and energy.

I sworn I saw Leo's post here while treading some threas. How was your healing journey? And for others, guess this global lockdown is a great way to enhance our journey.

I would say so yes. Since you are not limited to anything by now and is more open to new experiences. But it can be different from person to person. I think I saw a message before like, why does the G-spot for men are in the anus? lol

Listen to Kailash Kokopelli's album. All of them are about the universe and love <3

Thanks @remember! I just got off from the gym and since 1 month Ive been so active with my lifestyle. The medicine reminded me of what I needed to do and everything is just crystal clear. But you know, you are right. 2 people beside me during the ceremony gave me insights I was not expecting. They shared that they didnt have that good trip like what I was having, hence they told me how I was able to helped them, and I didnt do anything. It was the first time someone thank me that I dont have to do anything, just being in my presence. I've been through alot during my awakenings few years back so alot of self-inquiry, solo travels, meditation and such that helped what shaped me today. I'm a day late for Leo then, but hoping for his recovery! I have yet to watch his new video, I will watch it later. Can you elaborate more about Projections? I know we project our beliefs, it's natural. My life challenges has always been peer pressure. I need to follow my intuition first and foremost..

Hi everyone! I'm new to the forum, but I've been a lurker since I'm waiting for my registration now here I am! It's been a month after my first Ayahuasca experience. This is actually my first psychedelics. My trip has been so intense as I was able to communicate to Mother Aya that fast after a couple of tears. Then after a few days, Leo's new video titled 'How Psychedelics Work - Making Sense Of Psychedelics' got released. Talking about perfect timing, he discussed everything what I experience especially this part "When a pure person takes a psychedelic it's a completely different experience. The determining factor with psychedelics is not the substance itself that you take, or even the dose. It's your internal purity. How pure is your mind, how pure is your heart, how much shadow material do you have, that really determines how your trip is gonna go. The pure you are in heart and mind and soul and spirit. The more selfless you are, the more work you done to yourself, the more mature you are, the more developed you are, the more open-minded you are, the more fearless you are, the more curious you are, the deeper you contemplate, the better your trips will go, and the more insights you'll gather" I got so much insights from my journey, it's a liberating experience. The next day, we discuss with other members.. and Im quite happy that I was able to help others since they share to me that they saw me in their journey as a light shining their way thru their dark experiences. Though after from all of it, I realize others look it as a 'trip' and wanting to have more experiences soon... I understand we have different individual experiences, but from what I understand they need the plant to heal themselves? or is it not considered as escapism? I also asked myself multiple times if I should join them, but the answer is still no. I mean, the experience has been great because I got to know myself better and what I need to do. I think there's a kid around 20 years old that join the ceremony. He has this 'angsty teenager vibe', they have a little group that it felt like its their own circle. I dont know tbh, maybe Im just jealous they have a group. It felt like Im too special to vibe with the people in my group at that time.. It felt like they're the 'superior people' because they have more than 1 psychedelics experience like mushrooms and I dont have much. It felt like they want the medicine to heal them.. I dont know, it felt like they didnt get what the message from the medicine is, or Im just making this things up.
