It makes so much sense how detachment from reality allows you to easily stomach taking risks which allows you to manipulate reality without the emotional baggage attachment brings.

I never thought of systematizing socialization into goals like this. I definetly have to try this. Like just go to a mall and strike up conversations with random people browsing products at a store, or wherever really. @Illusory Selfyou've definetly inspired me

@Leo Gura has this been updated yet? If so, I'll link it here for other people that stumble on this thread.

I'm always hearing "I broke through on x psychedelic", but what does "breakthrough" actually mean? I looked up Google's definition: "a sudden, dramatic, and important discovery or development." How do you define it? What is it that you're breaking through? What is it that you are breaking out of?

@tedens this reminds me a of an Alan Watts talk. Exactly the same idea. Very insightful piece.

What do you really want? What do you want to experience in your life? What would not sit right with you on your death bed if you didn't experience it?

Work on it! Leo has a fantastic course on it. 10/10 will do again. You have yet to understand how every action that is happening right now is maximizing the love of the universe in the biggest picture. This technique helps a lot more when you life Create a life purpose so clear, a vision so clear, that its clear where you are and aren't serving yourself. Vague visions produce vague results. Vague visions provide vague direction. If your direction isn't clear, then you have no map to make distinctions of the territory.

Holy shit.

Interesting. Good to know!

@Late Boomer take time to integrate the insights and ramifications so deeply that you actually learn how to love and appreciate reality as it manifests. If you can't appreciate something in reality, then you simply don't comprehend and understand it deeply enough. See Leo's video: "Comprehension has many degrees" where he lays out a model. Your lack of nuance in understanding the intelligence of the design of reality holds you back from loving reality as it is. I'm working on this stuff myself! <3

@Late Boomer yeah on mobile I cannot delete a quote box or an @user @Leo Guranot sure if you're aware of this problem. Maybe a "clear all" button? An "undo" button as a workaround? Maybe just fixing the root problem with the coding?

If you're not going "holy shit" with realizing the level of depth that the social matrix influences your perceptions, I'd argue you have a wake up call headed your way. Study how language alone, the words that you know and don't know, is what precisely allows you to think certain thoughts. If it's not in your vocabulary, you can't even THINK it. You can't even conceptualize it. It's 100% outside of your awareness, completely blind. This is apparently how North Korea controls their people: by limiting the WORDS they're allowed to use. Imagine banning all the words that would be used to cause a revolution up against you.

I love how when the guy on the phone is talking about God, it completely goes over the podcaster's head.

I'm pretty content with the bubble I've created. I will actively seek out new channels when I want to use the search bar.

Pick out a poorly placed assumption, and then overexaggerate a completely wrong interpretation under their assumption. Utilize recontextualization.

The Duality of you vs other. The point where you can't even tell the difference between what you call "you" and what you call "everything else". #### Well define for yourself what "sane" means, held by the collective population. When you finally realize what reality actually is, you'll gain touch with reality for the first time, but to the one that assumes that this collectively held matrix of illusions is reality, they'll say that YOU lost touch with reality. Calling YOU psychotic, calling YOU insane, but the deep irony is that it's precisely the other way around.

Sounds like a good time. I look forward to it.

@Leo Gura Yeah just to be clear I'm not making the assumption that you sleep with women that are like mega wasted, just making the assumption that you slept with women who've had one or two drinks, because as you said, it's a social convention. I'd just like to make that distinction. I guess I conflate the word "intoxicated" with having any amount of alcohol. I'll have to be more mindful that this word may mean "complete loss of control" for some people. Okay maybe for alcohol, but what about psychedelics? Surely a girl on something like LSD or shrooms would be an advantage, no? I'd be operating under that assumption if I was going to a burning man festival. Not that I'd chose someone who's completely inebriated, just one that's clearly already having a good time.

100% underrated thing to do here. You CANNOT let yourself be ignorant of the laws of the current Government you reside under. If something bad happens to someone on psyches and it can linked to YOU being responsible for supplying them, you're fucked beyond fucked. You would basically need a friend that's so tight that they maintain integrity to such a point that they rather go to prison than to fuck with your friendship. Yes, it's a pain in the ass to make sure they get their own supply because you may have wanted to trip "this weekend" or whatever. But that's what it takes to cover your ass. ### Also, have you ever tripped with someone before? Let alone a trip with focus on trauma? As someone who has actually guided someone's shadow work trips, I'm not sure if it's actually productive to be tripping at the same time. This is because your bias of wanting something out of YOUR trip will probably come into play. Also, if you're both tripping, what if that person goes into hell? Would you be able to not let that fuck with your mood as well? I've tripped with a friend before, and I was completely focused on me. Me me me me. Also, you've got to be incredibly honest with yourself and see if you have selfish intentions with this girl being in an altered state. YOU KNOW she will probably be tapped into a heightened state of love. Will your ego abuse that? Shit, I'VE been tempted to seduce women myself in this exact same way. And I have to check myself that whatever attraction may occur between us, I need to think, is this authentic? and not just blindside a girl with effects she doesn't know she's experiencing. I think people run into this Morality issue with Leo potentially picking up intoxicated girls for the same reason. But at the same time, these girls aren't fucking unknowingly roofed. You would operate under the assumption that they willingly intoxicated themself with alcohol, and KNOW the potential ramifications of the intoxicated state. Even if that ramification meant they'd sleep with a guy that they otherwise wouldn't sleep with. At the end of the day, just be conscious of the potential ramifications of your actions. Just some food for thought. Much love.

It's probably a book on how to understand reality. As well as how to live the good life. But like mega in depth. Basically a "Bible" of sorts, but updated with all the knowledge of the Traps mankind has fallen into. Because never before had we had such access to the stories of mankind falling into various traps. At least those are my thoughts and projections. It's an incredible challenge to write such a book. Because there's SO much interpretation. You would first need to deconstruct and correct the reader's lens. You also run into the problem of marketing consciousness to the masses of unconscious people.

@preventingdiabetes Turn inwards. See Leo's video on introspection. Also see the Paradox of developing self trust. If you don't have a crystal clear vision of your life and your life purpose, you NEED to develop more clarity on that. Have you done Leo's life Purpose Course? Ask yourself: Well this action maximize the love of the universe? Sometimes watching a TV show can inspire you, feed your muse, and inspire you to fall in love with reality more. On the flip side, it could be a reminder that you're not focusing enough on your self actualization, life purpose, and spiritual path. Only you will know how to surf this wave.

I'm excited for the book

Van life FTW!

LOL I can't wait till I live in my van conversion where I can move from one big city to another, start my pickup journey gaming all the time.

@King Merk Hell yeah imma pull women into the back of my van conversion. Not creepy at all I promise.
