They are true Christians, but they aren't true believers in God.

Never heard that term before, thank you. I mean there is no true faith in the egoic projection of God. It's just not possible. It doesn't hold up when investigated, and the deepest aspect of our psyche knows that, even when that's completely buried under more relative assumptions. It's not this type I believe I meant, but perhaps I'm misunderstanding you. English is not my first language.

That didn't seriously happen, did it?

But he doesn't REALLY believe it, and it probably eats him up because it's all he has. The Ego cannot genuinely believe in God. The Ego's believe in God is an avoidance maneuver of God always, thinking that by pretending to align itself with what it intuits to be overwhelmingly powerful and its death, it can take on some of its qualities for itself and therefore secure its own survival. Let that sink in… All religious people below turquoise are pretending. ALL. ARE. PRETENDING.

Dropping dead isn't good for your health either. Let's do psychedelics and steroids first, then come up with an activity that the universe has never seen before. That's what I call exercise.

Exactly. I always had deep compassion for the guy. Everything about him so evidently points to a crushing experience of powerlessness on the inside, which then leads to all sorts of compensatory external power expressions that leave him empty. A step back into consciousness would free him from this horrible chase and unveil where he can find the real thing.

Hi, all! Life is an incomprehensible gift. Let's get a shared gratitude list going. Only rules: Complete honesty—don't try to impress or one-up each other but only refer to something that is actually here and here right now, inside or outside yourself.

1. I am grateful that I even looked into this forum after many months and had this idea. 2. I am grateful for a profound heart-opening this morning, right at the border of deep sleep and dream state. I remembered myself. I saw what I had done to me and to others by clinging to this ridiculous little self—and then even blamed others for my own suffering! I'm sorry. I am grateful for the chance to not do this anymore. 3. I am grateful for the gorgeous nature that surrounds my hometown of Vienna, Austria. 4. I am grateful for a good meal that I've had today and enough money to buy high-quality food. 5. I am grateful for an increasing self-love and dissolution of the inacceptance and hate for my body and especially balding head. 6. I am grateful for an incredible 4-year-old daughter and a fantastic relationship with her that's still just getting better the more the both of us mature into it. The ups and downs we've had so far only feel like more firewood for the flame of our love. 7. I am grateful for the air that I'm breathing and the plants and algae that exhaled the oxygen that supports my body. 8. I am grateful for a sharp and creative mind that's not so neurotic anymore as it has been for most of my life. 9. I am grateful for Leo. I watched you in my early 20s, profited, but thought you seemed so arrogant and premature about the insight you claimed as your own and the way you communicated it to your assumed listener, so I stopped. Today, I see you as a human being, and a beautiful one. I don't judge you. I love you. Thank you for everything and especially for making me take nonduality seriously at an early age. There are no words for how much this was and is worth. 10. I am grateful for a flourishing and successful business in consciousness work that is unfathomably more fulfilling than what I had believed to be the expression of my authentic life purpose for the longest time.

I'm grateful to be here. I'm Bavarian, living in Austria, but even I, just from using a lot of English-speaking internet, can feel the pull on my psyche. Admittedly, sometimes I can hear the regression into lower degrees of Consciousness like sirens singing. Something in me still resonates with the narcissism, the macho stuff, and the sheer energy behind it. My grandpa was a literal Nazi, and so we're all my great-grandparents. There is only my dad in between us. Genetically, we're about the same person. I'm fooling myself if I think that I could not become like grandpa. As Consciousness, I am untouchable, but as a person, so very corruptible, and it scares me. I'm grateful to be here. I'm grateful for a voice of reason. I'm grateful for the reassurance. I don't wanna give up my heart and intelligence, even if it means standing alone, even if the whole West eventually gaslights itself. I love life far too much. Dignity is an intrinsic face of God. Flirting with Fascism in any way, no matter the economic precarity, is below the dignity of this life, is denying God.

I totally agree. I've experienced both, committed monogamy and committed polyamory, both consciously, at other times very ego-driven. The lesson I got after all of this: some people are genuinely and inherently built for either one, a very small percentage is compatible with both, in the same way, some people inherently like men, others women, and some all of them. The curious thing I noticed, as far as I can judge, just like sexual gender preferences, this inclination doesn't really change over time. This notion that it depends on the stage of life you find yourself in, or even moral development, is just cultural legacy conditioning and not at all congruent with my observation. Get to know yourself sexually and romantically, and then just be sincere with it! There are conscious and unconscious, ethical and unethical ways to express every model of relationship. My best wishes!

Hello Leo! I've just watched the video you posted on your blog about the video takedown and your new awakening. I'm not to trying to get into an argument here, just striving for clarification. Are you claiming to be the most conscious entity in the sense that you're fully God, or in the sense that you are the most awake human incarnation of God, as if other “individual” (ancient Yogis, Shamans, whatever) have never reached such levels? Or is this distinction meaningless too? I'd appreciate a clear statement on that a lot. Love ya!

That's the point I made, my friend. Still, there is the appearance. My original question referred to exactly that relation. Further, I'd encourage you not to argue using mental nondual talking points. This is not about philosophy. Be sincere with direct experience. It's all we have.

I don't. I quoted the expression he used in the video.

But that's not new, isn't it? If we are one entity, who or what else could ever be conscious? Having clarified that, I assume YOU leave room for the possibility of YOU having realized yourself to the same degree through other human (or nonhuman) incarnations, right? Of course, I won't ever believe or follow you blindly, but I'm open to the possibility that you're the most conscious personification of YOU around. Why not? Reality is weird enough for that to be true... haha Still, all I have is my intuition and a longing for God that overpowers any other desire. I just can't not know. It's not a life worth living, if I don't. Let's see where this journey takes us! Thank you for everything!

How do you think you are able to tell the depth of his awakening? Drawing conclusions from what he states publicly? Giving him the benefit of the doubt, making blunt metaphysical claims about Enlightenment were probably counterproductive to meet people at the level they're at. Please correct me, if I'm misunderstanding your critique of his. It's been a while since I've heard you say that.

Hello there! Is there anyone that does physical strength training for its spiritual benefits (ego-dissolution, embodiment, etc.)? Although most people certainly practice it for very egoic reasons like exclusive identification with the body, even narcissim, getting more sex and so on, I personally see a huge potential in strength training as an integral consciousness practice. However, I struggle to really implement it and go deeper with it. I was looking for something to read or listen to. Ken Wilber was obviously ripped but I cannot find anything worthwhile by him or others. It seems there is really no literature on it. Does somebody here practice it in that way and would like to share how they do so? I'd appreciate any good advice or source on the topic a lot! Love you, guys! <3

Leo, how do I switch into permanently enlightened brain chemistry?

I see. But aren't you making yourself dependent on mental activity to maintain this frequency then?

Thank you. I appreciate the honesty. I'll give my life to that.

@GoobyBooby I don't think that's great advice. The ego can get identified with struggle in order to survive disguised as forceful "growth".

@Terell Kirby LOL actually it's the other way round... I've had a determined spiritual practice for years and only took up weight lifting recently.

I certainly don't have a final opinion on it. That's why I'm here. But I can tell you from experience that strength training can be an intense way of making the mind single-focused by "zooming" into the experience or out of it with your ENTIRE being without loosing contact to the body.

@JosephKnecht Thank you! That's what I was looking for. Could you describe the meditative process in more detail perhaps?

@Leo Gura I see your point. Well, I'm not trying to "get spiritual" through this process. That would be an escape from being the consciousness I already am. Rather, I'm trying to live as It while being a person and therfore using physicality as an anchor point in the human experience. I hope this makes sense… Thanks for your response

Hello my friends! Is there anyone, female or male, that has dealt with the reality of accidental pregnancy – despite of contraception or not – and a child as its consequence in any way? As it's become a beatiful and harsh reality for myself, I would love to connect with conscious parents that did not become them by choice. Perhaps, we can share some experiences and advice and exchange some of the quite unique teachings this situation has to offer. Even if you have dealt with a similiar situation in a very different way or something else makes it difficult to share; please don't feel judged! I'm really just looking for perspectives based in experience – no matter if they are coherent with my own ethics in this case. Much love and greetings from Peru!
