Alternatively, how to use/excert power responsibly. I've just realised that I have shadows in this area, and I think it's causing problems in my life. When I was young and stage red, I would experiment with how to excert my will over people, which I was kinda successful at in some cases, with some people. Later I realised how selfish it was, and discarded that part of myself. I'd love to see a video about power, how it manifests in different spiral dynamics stages, how to use power responsibly, the pitfalls, Absolute Power etc. I'm gonna contemplate on my own relationship with power, but I feel a video from you would be helpful. I think many people create a shadow of the concept of power, especially when trasitioning into stage green. Thanks Leo!

I'm doing music production myself, and what I've found is this. Follow your inspiration. Find ways to be really productive, crazy productive, practicing instruments, reading notes, studying different styles of music, but do it in a way that you find attractive and fun. When the going gets tough just switch things up. It doesn't really matter if you're jumping between different things when you're doing music if you're playing the long game. Having breadth of experience is seriously powerful, and smooths things out when you're working with other people. Go with the flow, experiment, try different things, or stick to one thing if that's your style. Mastery of music can mean a million different things. It's ok to get crazy with it, and you'll surely find a really unique niche and sound. Music is infinite. Best of luck to you!

I'd heard it a million times, but the Ego still had the driver's seat for so damn long. I fell into the solipsism trap, and stayed there after my first Enlightenment experience 2 years ago. I'm finally starting to grasp the depth of self deception, and spiritual bypassing. There must be a thousand things that I'm still self decieved about, but I'm finally serious about having my Ego sacrifice itself for the greater good of the world, and the greater good of the Universe. Even with a dedicated meditation practice, the ego decided that other people don't exist, while my ego claimed to be the energy that generates Everything. I've been really egotistical, and have been neglecting the larger Holons. I want to create something beautiful in my LP, not for recognition, but to serve. I'm finally starting to get it. I thought I was so Enlightened, haha. But I need to double down. Thanks for working so hard on letting me realise this. Leo, I fuckin love you, you've given me so much. It's always beautiful to have a real paradigm shift. I hope it sticks this time. Peace

@Leo Gura Stage blue is rough to look at sometimes

@Yarco interesting take, quite the mindbender for me actually, seeing as I tend to lean more towards@Thestarguitarist14 's style.. thanks for the responses! For the sake of conversation, my current routine is - waking up, make green tea (do some cleaning while the water is heating up), meditate until i finish my tea - takes about 25 minutes, warm up my voice and guitar, then work for about 2-3 hours on my music, work out, shower, healthy breakfast after a long fast. After that I tend to trail off a bit, but I try to at least get some music practice in. I find that if I'm lacking sleep, I'll need to use drugs (coffee, nicotine and alcohol) to get any work done. I try to avoid lack of sleep as much as possible.

Hi. I'm working to actualize my life purpose at the moment, currently working for home. I like the idea of going directly from my morning routine to working, but it's hard for me to fully commit to the transition. I'm wondering - what are your morning routines, and what are your rituals to transition to work mode, what are your hours, and do you take weekends?

Hey! I'm intending to build a bussiness, so I want to read a good, high quality bussiness magazine to get into the right mindset. Suggestions?

Hey! In regards to the latest video. I've recently experienced regressions in ego stages, and can remeber more than a handful of other times where this has happened. I believe it can happen often in differing stages of consciousness, for example, you should plunge deeper into it the more hungry you feel, and a million other huge or minor problems your ego percieves at one time. Is there a realistic limit to how deeply a person can temporarily regress?

@Nahm Is fluctuation an absolute?

@JosephKnecht Doesn't The Absolute have the power to create Absolute limits upon itself?

@JosephKnecht Nice concise take on paradigms

@Fadl So you believe it's possible to reach a stage where you never regress into lower stages? or are you just pointing out non duality

@flume looks really amazing! Hoping to someday get into this myself

Decided that, for better or for worse, I'd release one full song every tenth day, until I make make a fulltime job of music. Hope someone likes this

I want Beauty. That's why I'm so serious about the work. I also want to self actualize so that I can produce beauty, and to be an instrument for that for the universe! The most beautiful things in life is clearly psychedelics and enlightenment experiences, I want to see it all

Hey, I'm basically wondering: to those of you who have been doing self actualization for 10 + years, have had multiple deep awakenings, seen yourself as God, and have integrated Love, Absolute Infinite Fractalness, Infinite Nothingness, all the good stuff - How confused are you on a month to month basis? How often do you find yourself in a sort of existential void, where you lose touch with your Life Purpose, struggle with inaction, wonder if you're focusing on the right stuff and you're unable to stay connected to the Beauty of it all? Is there a point where everything comes together and stays together, apart from ego backlash when you encounter new depth? I love what I've found so far, and I know there's always more, but sometimes the repetativeness is just so damn boring. I'm in the process of actualizing my Life Purpose, I know it's gonna be amazing, but every time I get into this really good groove working on LP, Self Trancendence, or both, I know that I can expect to lose touch with it later. I have a few Golden habits, but they are a double-edged sword. I love Life, but only sometimes.

Yeah, I totally agree with that sentiment. Like, I realise how different my way of living, and my approach to life has becom than from how things used to be. And I've forgotten how it felt to be in the anxty teen vibe. It's fucking great! But settling in to the new reality, where the good vibe becomes the new normal can be a bit decieving. I have no clue how much happier I am, because it's the new baseline

@Nahm Thanks for the post, I'll contemplate the relationship between thought and feeling, though I suspect them to be one thing. I read your post on dreamboarding and came up with this. I felt like deepening the love for the things that I'm most interested would be a good way to make them manifest in beautiful ways. Is this a sensible way to go about it?

@Javfly33 ye, haha, the person is lazy af, my top habit is watching videos while practicing guitar, it's the best way to make sure that I actually practice

I'm really touched by the possibility of mahasamadhi. It's fucking beautiful, even tempting. After hearing about it, I'm inspired to truly make sure that my LP "measures up" to how grand mahasamadhi would be. And it calmes me to know that it'll be there waiting for me when I decide that I'm ready.

haha! good one

Everything True can be said dualistically, in a way that negates duality. This came to me in contemplation, I thought it was cute

In Norway, they just decriminalized (temporarily) the use and ownership of drugs, to free up the police. Good call for psychonauts nationwide! I feel like a lot of good can come from this period of strain on the society. It unites us, by temporarily dividing us

Hey guys! My LP is strongly related to beauty, and it's when I see something that's so visually stunning that I'm blown away by it, that I feel most alive - and most in tune with life. Personally, my most visually stunning trip was Changa(Dmt), smoked in joints, with weed. almost get tears in my eyes when I think about it. What's the most visually stunning psychedlic in your experience?
