It is good that you are aware about what you allow into your mind. However, you should just as easily be ready to lower your guard with an open and curious mind. Personally, I do not care about astrology.

The ego is never satisfied, you always wants more! And when there is no more, you suffer.

Just one of the many spiritual models / paths, is it not? If it doesn't work for you, forget it.

All the people telling you to meditate or just sit and do nothing, as if they do it themselves, ignore. The process of self Actualisation is so in depth that you should never really have nothing to do. Contemplation could be a start. Learn about something that you do not know about, or want to know more about. There are videos that tackle the exact problem you have right now, or you could learn about science, society, psychology, whatever. Make new relationships, work on some old ones. Use your free time to face some trauma / sadness in your life and heal, or stamp out any bad habits that hold you back. There is alot you can do, and it isn't that hard to fill your life up with things that will develop and grow you. Also get a job

Be patient. Remember: Actualized.org is his life purpose. He will expand and adapt as he delves deeper into awareness, and so will Actualized. He does have blog posts, and there is a thread called "Personal questions for Leo" ( or something along those lines ). Also, there is more than enough content here to self actualize and create your own fulfilling life, it is not as if you need Leo presently here to do this. The information and teachings he has shared are deep and numerous. You don't need to trust him on a personal level, just look at all the people who have improved their lives exponentially due to his work, and commit to the work yourself. There you will develop trust.

Because it is literally pointless. You cannot prove if most of them are true or not, the time wasted thinking about them could be better spent thinking about things that will actually give you a better understanding of reality. Being suspicious and theorising are bad habits especially when doing them is not going to lead you anywhere. 9/11 was an inside job tho

What does this have to do with the term " ego=universe"

Well said

That isn't beige, man. That's red / orange mentality.

Same, its great

Hell yeah man, stick to it

Yeah it is pretty sudden I gotta admit. In its entirety though, it isn't that bad. There is a sever flu outbreak every few decades, this is no surprise.

Here are some Ceramic sculptures I made back in the day. ( Please don't be offended by the swastika, I just like history ) I apologise for the shit picture quality, lol

Suffered from the same shit, man. POCD is like mental CANCER. ( FAR easier to fix, however ) I knew that a therapist wouldn't be able to help, so I just focused on learning about OCD and catching my thoughts early, before the compulsions became consistent. The hardest part is stopping yourself from "checking", and doubting if it is just OCD. ( Trust me, it is just OCD. ) If you want some more help shoot me a message, I am definitely an expert in this field.

A product of amazing effort and commitment, wow.

Just love him regardless. You're bound to develop past the people you love while on this path, and it's only natural to want to bring them with you. This rarely works, and older people tend to refuse to hear the truth when they have lived their whole lives thinking they are doing things the right way. And if you are going to try and change him anyway, do it in a subtle manner, and make a good example of how living a conscious life is far more happy and rewarding.

There is no external negativity. Something "horrible" could happen, and if you chose to view that something neutrally, or even as if it were a good thing, it would longer be horrible.

You were Mr Incredibles mask?

I try to patiently observe their behaviour, as there is much to learn from suffering. If it is a loved one, I still do this, while also being emotionally supportive and empathetic. This also enhances my own ability to feel, and to love. There is also no reason to feel someones suffering, which is especially common when you care for the person deeply. It wont help you to help them, Instead, just try to understand their suffering. And if they are taking the stress out on you, don't take it personally, Just calmly observe.

I'm pretty new to contemplating, just did about 40 mins on my first topic: "What is meaning?". Here is some of the stuff I got down ( I wouldn't want to bore you with every sentence and idea I wrote ), please let me know if I am falling into any traps or doing something wrong. I want to remove any bad habits before I get too into it. My drink bottle beside me, is MEANT to be drank out of. The word "Solar" on a poster I have means something 'of the sun' Is meaning somethings fundamental reason for existing? However, both words and drink bottles are human creations. Therefore, might meaning also be a human construct? My meaning in life is to self-actualize and integrate this into a military career. Is meaning something people use to justify the existence of things? However, dogs seem to experience meaning. If I was to yell at my dog, the yelling ( to my dog ) means aggression / danger. And, as I look around my room as an observer, without identifying or thinking about any of the things I see, they do not have any meaning to me. Possible answer: Meaning is the correlation that is made between something and its fundamental purpose. E.g: Me and my LP A drink bottle and its role as a container A word, and the reason that word exists. E.g: "Scary" exists to describe something that may induce fear. Now, replace "exists to describe" with "meaning" A man yelling at a dog, and the dog relating that to an act of aggression/danger. The meaning of yelling to a dog is danger / agression. ( I use dog as an example to debunk my idea that meaning must be a human construct ) Anyway, am I on the right track? Should I try to contemplate for longer so I can go deeper, or is this ok? Any advice or pointers would be greatly appreciated!!

Just remember that ADHD doesn't change the One that you are. You might need to put in some extra effort, but eventually you will find clarity. OCD used to make this work feel impossible, now I am going better than ever.

Come to Australia

I'm trying to actualize and I am 17, I first did LSD at 14. Age does not matter.
