What does it really mean to selfless? Does it mean not having a sense of self or does it mean putting others above your human needs? I've heard an enlightened human can still be what people call selfish even though they don't have a sense of self.

https://mywaterfilter.com.au/collections/reverse-osmosis-filters/products/4-stage-reverse-osmosis I saw an Amazon link someone left to a RO filter but it seems unavailable now. Found this one online. It says it filters Lead & Mercury II but not Mercury I? Any opinions on if this is worth buying or any other suggestions would be helpful.

Thank you

Hey all, I'm preparing a talk about happiness. I'm looking for places to speak. Perhaps spiritual conferences? Anything focused around personal development? I'm in Melbourne, AU. I will note events in other states of Au if suggested. Tim

Interested to start a business to help teach many of the great insights I've gathered other the years and to contribute to my life purpose. I am thinking of doing public speaking in venues in my city as well as creating content online for Youtube and the web. Anything to watch out for or consider before jumping in?

@Yarco Depth. I feel alot of stuff out there isn't getting to the root of a lot of dissatisfaction and misunderstanding in the world. I would like to focus on raising awareness and increasing holistic understanding of life rather then a focus on fulfilling ones base needs for money, sex or achievement. It could be expressed as moving stage green to yellow or conventional to post conventional. With that comes an increase in wisdom and I think also, a certain increase in wellbeing.

I can relate to some of this.

Shia Labeouf's character could be considered red with aspects of orange.

By healthy you mean not a psychopath?

I've heard about it from watching Actualized.org and also from the interview with Peter Ralston that Leo did. I'm open to the fact that the absolute truth could be found through another method that is beyond intellectual thinking. Is there anyone that can give me an idea of what dc is? Is it something that can only be understanding through being in the state of dc? Thank you

@Consept Yes it doesn't value all humans equally that was one of the main concerns I had.

Just watched I am Mother on Netflix, the robot in the film is different from your typical nefarious movie cyborg. It helps other humans even though it's primary designed to look after it's own 'special' family of human beings. I saw a lot of stage yellow in the way it behaves and responds. If anyone else has watched or is willing to watch to provide their opinion that would be great.

What's more important to you? Mastering meditation or not lot losing a great idea?

I'm curious about the power of imagination. If reality is infinite, it seems to me that the human body could be unimagined and you could instead switch from a human to a cat or a bird? Could you ever do this permanently or only temporarily due to the trouble of sustaining such high levels of consciousness?

Thanks for all the help from everyone.

Hey all, I'm feeling puzzled in my self-enquiry. How can I focus on awareness if it's intangible? I know that I'm not meant to be focusing on any particular thought, sight, sound or other sensation. It seems I'm the one aware of my thoughts but how do I focus on that thing that is aware? Thank you

I agree.

@Leo Gura Just watched the new video, good stuff. If someone asks you to imagine that God, Love, Truth and Reality are not as you've directly realised, how does this work in the context of open-mindedness? if these things are absolutely true is there any need for serious re-examining?

@Leo Gura If you had decided to go into this singularity that God offered you, thus destroying the entire universe does that mean that would be the end of all of 'us' on this forum as well?

-Please advise if not the appropriate place to vote - The Futur is a Youtube channel I've been watching since last year. It's all about helping creatives in an unique and deeper way. Unsure where to place it's founder Chris Do on the Spiral. Seems to be a combination of Orange, Green and Yellow. What do you guys think? Tim

I think it's good to have other stage yellow resources, even if they aren't on Leo's Booklist Could you tell us more about what you found helpful in this?

At this point in the journey, life feels simple and less complicated in the sense that with every key decision in life: Action A = Suffering and more misery Action B = Joy, love, inner peace Holding Grudges = misery all around for everyone. (A) Forgiveness = better relationships, peace of mind. (B) So why listen to someone telling me to do action A when I know in my heart that action B will be the right move, especially given that the person who chooses action A is normally not conscious of how it will backfire on them. Could any situation require action A or some combination of A & B. While this knowledge is life-changing, does it invalidate points of views from lower levels of understanding? Leo talks about all worldviews having some kernel of truth and I certainly appreciate that from my own point of view but what about when it comes to making choices in life. Isn't the wisest wisdom the way to go when making those calls or can less-thought out solutions be effective to a self-actualized individual? At the same time, my mind is opening to non-duality and deeper insights that I never would have considered from previous points in my life.

He bang girls hotter than victoria secret models but he feels the calling of having a family. He chooses Melissa, they marry and have a kid. Nothing really wrong with that per say. However, what you call nature is also ego my friend.
