@GreenWoods That it'd be a cool project

@GreenWoods All of this is way too idealized and put in a box, no offense but it seems like some horoscope descriptions haha. Many old school stage Blue teachers fit your description of Coral and beyond.

@Kalki Avatar Actually i never practiced this specific exercise, something similar though. The guy in the video is right, prayer is just form of meditation, concetrating in something outside of you that with time comes closer, finally bringing interior change.

@Kalki Avatar This guy has a series about it. Has a video on every chakra. About prayer: it is just a method of concetration like many others, like Mantras. You get absorb in the object of meditation - in this case a recitation repeated endlessly - and cool things start to happen. Search for Jesus prayer on wiki and youtube: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jesus_Prayer

@machiavelli no. I never said i did. So, knowing this, i hope you understand that NDE don't disprove nor go in conflict with Leo's Solipsism. End of the story

Finally, You conflate Absolute and Mundane. The sole fact that you are here talking on this forum instead of being in Samadhi 24h/7 means that, atleast socially, you accept the paradigm that other minds ad human beings exist. This is what i mean by "...from a more mundane POV, colloquially, other mind can be said to exist. This is not regular Solispsism, It's Metaphysical Solipsism."

@Kksd74628 Yes, absolutely, that's infact what i wrote. @machiavelli it is when you don't understand what poeple type or say. This a seriuos problem. Metaphysical solipsism, infact, DENIES THE INDIPENDENT EXISTENCE OF OTHER EXTERNAL MINDS--------NOT THAT THESE MINDS CAN APPEAR AS ILLUSION/CREATIONS WITHIN THIS SINGULAR EXPERIENCE I never said Leo belives other minds or povs exist indipendently. They exist within the dream as a creation. I never said or stated this as an absolute. Again, You have bad comprehension. As You say there is only one POV. All other povs are imagined to be existing within the within this POV. That's why NDE doesn't disprove Metaphysical Solipsism. One might be a telepath and "read other's poeple's mind", but it doesn't change the fact that this scenario is all happening within the only Experience/Mind that is responsable for the existence of all the rest. IS IT CLEAR?

@machiavelli You need to work on your text comprehension skills, seriously.

@machiavelli You misunderstand what Leo means by Solipsism. I'm going to clear it. Leo himself has never exluded the possibility of person-to-person thelepathy. So what? Still all of this is being imagined/created in this infinity field we call experience. Thelepathy and NDEs still happens in the context of the illusion/dream. You must understand that Leo's solipsism is from the Higest POV possible. From God's POV other mind's don't exist, from a more mundane POV, colloquially, other mind can be said to exist. This is not regular Solispsism, It's Metaphysical Solipsism. From Wiki: "In metaphysics, metaphysical solipsism is the variety of idealism which asserts that nothing exists externally to this one mind, and since this mind is the whole of reality then the "external world" was never anything more than an idea. It can also be expressed by the assertion "there is nothing external to these present experiences", in other words, no reality exists beyond whatever is presently being sensed. The aforementioned definition of solipsism entails the non-existence of anything presently unperceived including the external world, causation, other minds (including God's mind or a subconscious mind), the past or future, and a subject of experience. Despite their ontological non-existence, these entities may nonetheless be said to "exist" as useful descriptions of the various experiences and thoughts that constitute 'this' mind." This is what Leo has always taught, more or less.

@machiavelliThe context is: There is only one Experience/Mind. All the other possible, separated experiences/mind are imagined-fabricated-by this over-arching One principle. These other imaginated subdivisions are NOT INDIPENDENT from the one over-arching mind that is resposible for their existence.. Even if you were able to tune into the experience of another human being, that would still happen in the same ONE MIND. How could it be otherwise?

@Frosty97 Of course confidence is relative. And it depends upon your beliefs and mental state. Two men in the exact same situation can have different levels of confidence. There are many great books on the topic like Maxwell Maltz's Psycho-Cybernetics or The 6 Pillars of Self Esteem. Leo did a summary of the second one: Also, Confidence derives from how much value you think you have. Even though i don't approve all of his theory, this video by 1stman hits the spot. In short, the more you work on your self, the more you feel high-value and confident.

No it doesn't. There is only one Mind-------------->in/through which it appears the subsequent narrative:--------------> "You thinking that there are multiple minds beacuse you read somewhere a report of someone saying they read other poeples minds" This is the same as saying "oh but i see poeple walking down the streets, so that means there isn't just one being!!"

@michaelcycle00

@r0ckyreed Existential insights are intuitive and non- discoursive, doesn't metter if you get there through no-mind or full-mind. They are 2 sides of the same coin. If you contemplate deeply enough you know that at a certain point the caothic mind center itself around the the object of inquires, making it similar to non-analytical meditation. Not true. If not, the opposite. Look how many creatives are into meditation and say it enhance their mind-work and inspiration. David Lynch, Paul McCartney, Hugh Jackman, Madonna, Steve Jobs, jack Keruac, Ophra Winfrey, Bruce Lee, Leonard Cohen, George Lucas, Jeff Bridges, Orlando Bloom, Bill Gates, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Clint Eastwood, Ray Dalio, Marina Abramović, Howard Stern, Richard Gere, Herbie Henkock, Herman Hesse, jack dorsey(Twitter), Jeff Weiner (LinkedIn) all practiced it or still practicing, many of them for decades. If done seriously it makes your reasonong clearer, sharper. I don't know about you, but after a 45 min. session of breath following my mind is super fresh and ready for work I think a correct concentration practice is vital for conteplation or visualization. How can you succed in those if you mind is not fast and able to mantain focus? I wouldn't say meditation is the culprit here, expecially if you pracice for short periods. Look at what you eat and how much you sleep instead.

@Aldrich those phrases are just figures of speech used for the artistic purposes of the video. Watch his recent interviews. He knows well that "death of the soul" is not the most profound way to describe it. He actually stretches alot on full realization being beyond all concepts, destinatons included.

@machiavelli Bro, you are running in circles with you last posts. This one is easy. Let's say you think there exist 2 poeple in the unverse, you and another guy. Now, notice that the dreamer of this narrative is always One. Also, being/experience is always singular. Can you be aware of two experiencies at once? No.

@RMQualtrough as long as you are good with it and accept, what's the problem then? Keep in mind it can be just a phase. if it persists, i may suggest that here and there you get you of your comfort zone, just to see if you are missing out on something. And when you do get out i would leave drugs aside, as they can become a crutch, you don't want to be able to have fun just when high.

@Vynce it is always changing and by the day more and more poeple are awakening. it's a super slow process though.

@machiavelli I think the problem hese is that tyou are confusing Gods POV with your finite POV There is no background from God POV. Dreamind infinite dreams at once looks like Absolute Nothingness, not "many many many dreams". The same with the concept of time. Without the time-space concept reality as we see it and its illusion would collapse and we would go back to the timeless singularity. Leo DID explain it many times. dreams are still happening in a time frame, every memory you have needs it. No time, no memory, no you. The same can be said for you waking state. There is no difference. Notice you are creating this difference

@RMQualtrough I once had a group of friends on the opposite side of the city, 1 hour to get there and back every time. One night, after a not so funny party, i came back home and there was this raging storm, i was soaked in water with no umbrella and i told me self "why am i even doing this?" Moral of the story is, go out only of you WANT TO, not because of some social obligation inertia bullshit. If you feel resistence is either because you have some blocks that prevent you from having fun or the people your hanging with are just not your kind

@ardacigin Thanks

@machiavelli True insight don't need confermation nor validation. Do you need validation to know that numbers are infinite?

@ardacigin Wow. i was just corrently thinking about you posts about TMI and then THIS comes at hand I spent 1.5 years practicing Kriya Yoga, and for several reasons i decided to switch to TMI, i think i'm at stage 4 by the descriptions in the book. i'm 2 weeks in with a 45 min daily sit, following the breath at the nose with I. M. Awereness Yet, i have a "problem". every time i sitted, i had signs of energy activity(vibrations, tinglings, poppings, sounds), with pleasure and without, which are not yet mentioned at stage 4, and should appear later on. The activity increase by the minutes, but had its peak with my earlest sits in terms of intensity. now it kind of subdued. i suspect this is due to the Kriya practice i've done, where i'm already familiar with energy stuff. i'm still dealing with gross distractions tho, little strong Dullness. i will probably increase the duration of the sit to 1 hour soon. any tips? Should i go by the book and ignore everithing?

This is the most open he has been on the subject in an interview. Also He admits it is untrodden territory even for him
