How is this even acceptable? I got banned for much less.

This is besides the point. The point is that nothing works for everyone equally, no matter how good it may be for some people. It's a bad assumption to assume that the teacher can give you the teaching, because no one actually can. If that was the case, then everyone would have been enlightened millennia ago.

I wish I could, but I actually can't. It's 4 years ago, how am I supposed to remember? I guess you'll just have to take my word on my experience, like I'm taking your word on your experience. Or should I accuse you of smearing? Plus, there's already plenty of evidence in everyone's feedback, both recently and way before. Nahm doesn't really need a defense. His 26,563 posts are the evidence. Yes.

I can't be specific. It was like 4 years ago and I was mainly dealing with victim mentality, depression, and fear of death, when Nahm stepped in and offered his perspective and it clicked. It wasn't one post, nor one discussion. And the effects didn't manifest all at once, but gradually. That's all I can remember. Right now I am completely free from all of those issues and my life (emotions-wise) couldn't be better.

All I got from Nahm was insightful, caring, genuine, and useful advice. And all of it was absolutely for free. He actually helped me out of extremely dark places that I was in, and yet didn't ask me for a cent in return.

If you were serious about this work, you would have learned by now that this issue is not legit in any way. Check out Leo's video on authority. Anyone can start a YouTube channel and present themselves as a teacher. Basically anyone can become a teacher if they've read enough material and/or had enough experience. If something doesn't work out for you, it's not necessarily always a problem with the teacher. Consider that the problem might be on your side, or on neither sides. Technically, even medicine works on some people and doesn't work on others. Nothing is absolutely suited for absolutely everyone, because people are different. By your logic, all of the pharmaceutical research is just a big scam because I took the pill and I'm still feeling ill. You're ignoring the fact that at least 90% of the people who've dealt with Nahm actually gave back positive feedback.

@Raptorsin7 Thinking about it now, it seems like Nahm actually did you a favor in retrospect. You see, you were spending $1000 per month with the donations, then he reduced that to $500. You gotta at least give him that. You didn't have a spending threshold, so he fixed that for you.

This forum is becoming personal without development.

I wonder what suppressing one side of a bisexual identity would look like. Could suppressing your straight side turn you into a 100% gay, and vice-versa?

Good move from Leo. Everyone should just forget about solipsism and the related videos and go back to their lives and practices. I expect Leo will be banning all solipsism discussions from now on.

There's a saying in my culture that says when a man is alone with a woman there's always a devil between them.

??

He basically was a member to begin with, though. I don't remember seeing him locking threads or giving warnings.

I realized that at this point in human history there's almost nothing that's not been said or done before. There's no point in flexing your mind trying to reach a certain understanding. Basically, all you have to do is look, then mix and match.

I'm thinking about creating a thread where I debunk solipsism once and for all. I can definitely do it, but should I? I'm feeling lazy, so I could only write a short version of my thoughts. But then I would not be taken seriously, and the thread would probably get locked. I can literally destroy the illusion for Leo and everyone, no kidding. I need some more mental strength, but it's 10 pm here and I'm a bit tired. Maybe tomorrow, or maybe never.

Well, I can only speak about what I have seen. And I have only seen him offering sessions for free. Maybe he decided to make a change after that. But you still had your mind and free will to stop at any point. So yeah, he is right on taking responsibility too.

You donated your money. He did everything for free.

@Raptorsin7 Nobody forced you to donate anything. Nahm offered you a lot of guidance and you're being ungrateful here.

I agree.

What turns me on? Personality-wise: Narcissistically, pathologically high levels of self-worth. At the same time free and playful. Fun to be around. These qualities trump looks for me. Looks: I mostly subscribe to a religion called Adonitology. But no amount of ass can make up for lack of personality traits.

He really is great, but only if you get him. People should strive to understand him by all means, because that can unlock levels of intelligence beyond one's current comprehension. If you get it, that's cool. If not, move on. Others in the future can read and appreciate, too. But realistically, not so many people can or have the time or dedication to do that. So most of his words will fall on deaf ears, which I don't think is necessarily a problem, but also the problem that I have faced directly with him is that sometimes you just can't communicate with him at the same level. He goes meta all the time, which is not always appropriate or useful. But that can be changed if he want to.

Nahm is great, perhaps one of the greatest teachers I've ever seen. He has so much depth and wisdom and his posts are almost always right on spot if you read them carefully. But yeah, he has to go. Not so many people will understand the communication at that level. And sometimes it's just an unhealthy reduction of everything into nothing.

Probably a bad idea. I don't know a lot about psychedelics, but I know enough to advice against this move. Every time you're taking a psychedelic, you're flipping a coin, and you'll either go to heaven or hell. If you can't handle gore scenes sober, they might break your brain on psychedelics. DON'T DO IT.
