Yeah its possible that he just meant he's in full recovery, though I do think he's slightly biased towards promoting incomplete versions of health in favor of traditional indian paths, which do have great wisdom of course
-
There are actual comments on instagram saying how his body is divine and cant be touched ... this whole worship thing is to a pretty high degree Yeah but a few moments later he says there's no damage? I'm also connecting to some of his past videos where he makes it sound like yoga and ayurveda leads to 95% to 100% health, which I now think is completely false, as health encompasses so much more if you really want to take a holistic approach

I dont get why the doctors are saying they found swelling, and bleeding and sadhguru himself is saying they opened him up and found nothing? lol ... its one thing to have followers worship a non-injuring body, but he himself is selling a false notion of spirituality? Though the doctors did also say he's recovering surprisingly well, so I guess he does have some kind of extraordinary healing ability of some sort

It's actually funny today I saw this trending news about Mr. Beast how he signed this deal with amazon. I never really watched his videos, but I always thought it so cool how he does these real life competition things. And today when he signed this deal I was like damn this one man show guy is a beast. I started comparing myself to him and I was like "ahh why cant my life be that cool" .. then Leo makes this post and I had no idea he was so miserable. I actually fell into this trap for ages. One get rich quick scheme after get rich quick scheme from ages 18 to 27. I don't know how I even got into this trap. Just chasing views, likes, success, and "producing tons of content" as Gary V so obsessively promotes. But all that left me so drained. I finally am now pursuing novel writing, and making my own long-form courses in an online university, and although I'm not successful, I feel so much more happier. I'm getting back in touch with art, especially with my novel writing. I think the focus should be this: Art over success, World-Class products over mediocre products, Long-form content over short-form content (priority-wise), passions over money. Its hard to say yes to the wiser pursuits, but Ive spent 8 years wasting and failing my time in bullshit. This ties into Leo's video: Valuable things require development over time, which I swear I've watched atleast 40 times now to reground me in the right, long-term patient path to success which gives you the space to pursue higher ideals like world-class products, art, truth, beauty, depth, etc.

@Leo Gura Do you think its possible your opinions are biased by living in las vegas where girls are more materialistic?

Check it out if you haven't already: Ideas for discussion: What's possible in how we use these videos? New business ideas? New opportunities that'll open up? Potential dangers? What kinds of things would you create with it? How will this change society? I personally love film, and have always wanted to do something in film, but felt the barrier to entry was high, competition was fierce. Now I feel like with honing my imagination, strengths in story-telling, my thinking, philosophy, all these perspectives I've gained over the years from listening to Leo and the directions those took me in, combining all that I could present all kinds of fascinating perspectives about reality, maybe make cinematic films like that. If anyone remembers the pale blue dot video from Carl Sagan: It was his voice, stock footage, philosophical entertainment .. I think it'd be amazing to take videos like these to the next level with these new AI-generated vids you can now do with Sora.

then how does a guy with such high integrity like snowden survive in russia? is it that he just stays out of people's business there - the russian govt, and just sticks to his online talks? -
I dunno man, I think that could be a limiting belief .. Ive seen some crazy transformation stories online, everyone is capable of drastically changing their looks if they actually make it a pursuit over a few years
-
@Leo Gura about the looks thing, why dont you do things like get ripped and stuff if thatll 10x according to you? I noticed you always talk about looks being a limiting factor like you cant change it. Isnt there a lot of things you can do to like 5x looks? also are you sure looks matter that much? Im a guy, and I wouldnt date an unattractive girl like who is overweight and stuff, but there have been tons of times where Im attracted to pretty girls but who may be a lot less prettier than other girls, whom im not attracted to .. and if im a guy who feels that i doubt looks matter so much to girls

Hey guys, I have been reading this book called "The Kill Chain" .. and this really was a wake up call like no other book I've read. I highly encourage reading it. It's currently the #1 best seller book in "military public policy" on amazon. It was written by the former staff director of the senate armed forces committee and the senior policy advisor to senator john mccain. The book talks of how the biggest threat and priority of the us military should be (but is not at all) the rapidly transforming military of china since 1993. He showcases how china's military is already way ahead of us' in terms of technological advancement, but also it's rapid data-decision-action networks. It got me thinking of a lot of things .. Creating serious change in the US military through a) building a brand raising awareness, bringing new innovative solutions to US military, etc. for both the citizens of america and the us military itself. The US military, according to this book, prioritizes platform over network, just investing in better versions of older technology rather than a) new types of technology altogether (that threaten the existing ways of doing things), and b) new ways of thinking, doing things, re-imagining the US military. I don't think its stressed enough in the media how great of a concern this is over the coming decades. What do you think about turning this into part of a life purpose? Do you think it's safe to discuss these matters? I would plan to remain conscious, non-attacking, just raising awareness, caring about humanity at large, and mostly preventing disaster through strengthening US military. Also, WHY is this not talked about enough in US society? How great of a concern do you think this is? There's one incident he talks about, "little green men" in 2014 in Ukraine, where (I think Russian) forces demonstrated technological superiority to Ukraine, but that scared US because of how advanced it was compared to our technology in the military. And China, according to this book, has astronomically more advanced technology, ALREADY. I have been reading similar things, such as China's silicon valley, and it's sort of all coming together how a) China's military advancement is growing at an astronomical rate and b) how AI, biotech, and other rapidly growing technologies can really move so fast compared to our gov't's willingness to adapt to this rapid pace of innovation and technological advancement. This is concerning. What are your thoughts? @Leo Gura What are your thoughts too? There's one AI researcher who said the 3 biggest problems facing humanity is 1) AI, 2) nuclear war, and 3) global warming .. I think one thing that unifies all this is the theme of the rapid pace of technological innovation that is so rapid that its getting out of hand, out of our hands, out of our inability to move fast enough and control things. Do we even have hope as the decades go by? How do we wake up US military, society, govt?
-
@Raze You do have a point about China not doing any serious invasion, but at the same time a) that 9/11 presented them with a strategic opportunity against US, and b) they are in a competitive arms race with US, and c) just because they havent done anything in the past doesnt mean they cant do something in the future. But idk tbh, Im still trying to figure this out. I definitely think its possible that something is here worth looking into, but I guess I'll have to keep digging into this. Of course, as you mention nuclear war is of a great concern and thats undeniable. That's definitely worth raising awareness about, and generating important solutions for.

@Leo Gura Yeah I think it was mainly julien's behavior, but also I think society has gotten more sensitive, as you can see with the cancel culture movement .. owen is also at fault too, and there's many things I dont like about owen, but as a whole, I think he put out some really high quality content in game, that was relatively conscious ... in fact it kind of reminds me of osho, osho put out conscious content, but his leadership of this organization was bad, just like owen where his content was relatively high conscious, but his business tactics, leadership, etc. has a lot of toxic elements
-
@Leo Gura do you have any examples of what he said that was unethical, mysogynistic, and abusive? I mostly remember him saying to just go out, get field experience, ways to improve your personality, etc.
-
Happy holidays everyone, Im doing a yearly reflection now. Wish you all a good upcoming year of success, growth, love and happiness.
-
Actually thats pretty clear, do that which you fear the most, and Id have to say that aside from game, life can be pretty comfortable as even intellectual business work is not as scary in many ways

@Leo Gura can you expand on what you said about game making you a stronger man? I recently got back into serious game, daily approaching, even taking a train into manhattan daily just to do serious game, and yesterday I did 3 approaches after 6 months, but rather than with the intention of getting girls, my mind has been set on becoming a powerful man (partly because of what you said, how you cant explain it but it really does make you a powerful man, and what owen cook said in his blueprint course, about how this is really about developing deep internal value) .. In the past, I've gamed with the mindset that it will surely produce some good personality characteristics, but just from one day of cold approaching, yesterday, I felt a strong reduction in fear. I came home and set up the christmas tree, no hesitation, just effortless, something id leave to my family or maybe go thru hours of mental work just to get myself to do. I can really see that game can make me a powerful man. But since yesterday, Ive been curious as to why that is. How is something so simple as talking to girls, something that feels like an external "doing-based" activity, produce deep internal powerful change?
-
well that was quite the roller coaster
-
@Leo Gura yeah I figured, it will also be expensive for most consumers, but i do like to dream big, envision the future and automate as much in my life thats sort of SOP .. I do think one day they will be pretty common in households too, b2c, maybe within 6 to 10 years, bezos and musk are always looking to create cheaper consumer items
-
Im trying to think of the use case though, if someone is to get one: id prob just get one for cooking, cleaning, but what else is there?

With respect and kindness, I used to be in all kinds of fantasies .. i watched this movie recently, vanilla sky, about a man who got stuck in this romantic fantasy for ages, and he realized after all that wasted time, that he'd rather choose truth. At the end of the day, wasting time on fantasies that wont yield anywhere will just leave in regret. Just my perspective though.

To everyone and @Leo Gura Wanted to share an account I have been following, this girl is living in Gaza, reporting on it. Here is the instagram profile: https://www.instagram.com/wizard_bisan1/ She is very well-spoken. She is receiving overwhelming support, half a million likes per post, which is nice to see that so many around the world are rooting for her and the palestinians. I personally learned a lot and can empathize more with palestinians. She is constantly reporting from a first person's perspective, things like the delusions she and her family are experiencing, live footage, daily challenges .. whats heartbreaking is seeing how she went from a normal instagram girl to her current situation, if you look at her past posts. Subtle things like how she would care about instagram filters in the past, and now no care in the world. War would do that to you, make you let go of petty things like IG filters. Small, but I think it matters.

@Leo Gura how can someone like elon be incredibly smart, build high conscious companies that are actually successful (except twitter and maybe neuralink), possibly be a force of major good in the AI safety space giving high quality insight there, yet at the same time be so dysfunctional with his politics, befriending some highly dysfunctional people like Alex j. or Andrew tate, work habits, the way he treats workers, etc. ... i honestly dont know how thats possible .. but just the fact that hes a major force in ai safety, global warming, etc. some of humanity's biggest problems to solve .. wouldnt that make him a net positive for society? -
Jayson G replied to Parallax Mind's topic in Society, Politics, Government, Environment, Current Events
@Leo Gura I have been following this very intensely, listening to all the experts on this, and I also have no doubt we've had encounters, but I still dont get why there aren't clear, high def photos and videos online? or why there isn't anything that is super clear and obvious that is viral, such as a video encounter? or why these interactions are so rare and hidden? Have you found the answers to any of these questions? Then there are other things I wonder, which is much farther away from discovering the truth, so I don't expect to find that easily: what planet are they from? why are they interested in our nuclear bases? why dont they show themselves in like nyc or something or why dont they attack us -
@Leo Gura at first i was like whats the big deal if its in vegas, especially compared to the wilder shit he's talking about, then i realized you live there .. don't get any wild ideas to check it out now lmao but if you do we'd love a field report
