@LastThursday Most people on earth are not logical in any formal sense, that's true. But a lot of people on this forum are overly logical. The people on here do not accurately represent the overall population.

@John Paul I think that all of the things you think may not be possible, are possible. Because art is not part of reality. Art is reality.

@brun0 haha thank you. I have been doing the mirror thing lately, but I keep being rude to myself.

@Javfly33 perhaps one is because of the other

Kanye is wearing black and collaborating with many musicians and also having them wear black. Kanye is also going through a very mentally sporadic time in the public eye (even by his standards) he has also split from his friend kid cudi who almost never wears black and instead has started becoming more feminine and wears very colorful feminine clothes. Kanye is becoming more masculine and and cudi more feminine. Kanye is going through a hard time while cudi seems to be better than ever. To me this feels like its pointing at a coming war between the feminine and masculine where the feminine will inevitably win. Or am I deluding myself? cause I feel slightly mad saying this lol

@Zedman why are you so attached to receiving your insights from Leo?

@Baum haha oopsie

@Baum No not really haha, that's really interesting though. I never thought about femininity and masculinity like that. Thanks. could you explain how you came to the conclusion that the feminine is receptivity and masculine is radiation?

Whenever I make art I feel like I am just receiving it from somewhere/someone else. I can edit the art later of course, but the editing doesn't have the same magic as the initial creation. Because of this lack of control and understanding over/of the process of creation of the best art I have created, I don't feel like I can master the process of creation since it feels like it isn't even me who is creating it, I have no idea how it happens. How do I master my art and ideas if I feel like its just a gift from somewhere else? and I'm just along for the ride.

@Baum 2 things which need eachother can obviously still go to war with each other, that makes no sense.

@Carl-Richard If everything flows effortlessly then why don't I feel that way while editing my art? because im not supposed to edit it? orrrr

Most people seem to think that art is made simply in the pursuit of beauty, but it seems to me to be more of a higher mode of communication, which humans reach for when they have just encountered a part of the unknown which is so far outside their model of the world that they can't describe it without art. So then someone would create art about falling in love, not because love just feels so good, but rather because they have absolutely no fucking idea wtf just happened to them, but still need a way to express it. Then reality would be the art that god makes to explore the unknown of itself, in the same way that as humans make art to explore the unknown of themself.

@Danioover9000 They are creating something that humans consider to be art, but that doesn't mean that they can comprehend the concept of art themselves.

profound

The question of: where have you been? if answered to the point of perfection would contain the subtle schema of an individuals identity and understanding and plans and regrets and of course far more, comprised into one. At a certain point of interconnection ignorance becomes understanding, identifying becomes seeing as an other, and feelings become numbness. But before that level of interconnection and seeing, where is the true nuance in existence as a human? (the answer could be different for different people) It seems to me that an experienced of something so nuanced that it is as shocking as death and yet as palpable as life is what Leo and the rest of us are chasing with this greater and greater self understanding. Something to shock us into silence because of how much noise it makes.

The world is just a manifestation of my own psychology/mind. if I create something, like a song, it also comes from my psychology and mind etc. What is it that draws the line in between creating something vs experimenting or exploring and discovering it? is it Just the illusion of a doer rather than just a watcher in the action of creation that sends it apart from discovary? then why should a painter claim ownership of their painting? But a scientist not claim that they made and therefore own an atom that they discovered?

I've heard that some people can enter psychedelic states by meditating a lucid dream or just concentrating on a single object. Does anyone have any other methods which you can use to achieve these sorts of states without hours of meditation or taking a drug?

@Danioover9000 I don't agree, why do you say that?

In Leo's video titled "An Advanced Explanation Of God-Realization" he refers to the "upward path of consciousness" as being the path of God gaining greater and greater self understanding. This is what I am interested in. I want to completly understand why water moves in the exact way that it does, I want to see intimate connections between seemingly opposite things. Leo also said that he is working on the ability to articulate what it means to understand something, and how understanding is even possible. IS ANYONE ABLE TO ARTICULATE WHAT UNDERSTANDING ACTUALLY IS? under-stand = stand under = lower than that which is being understood. maybe to understand something you must be lower than it in some way. idk. Does anyone have any insights regarding what the upward path is?

@Alex_R low IQ comment

@Matthew85 yea but I can't control my dance moves, I wanna do some different moves.

@Loba Have you noticed any similarities between the different moments of creation? For me it seems to happen mostly when I'm alone at night or slightly scared when in the dark. I think the fear of being outside of my comfort zone forces me to be more attentive to my own mind and in turn more creative maybe.

@mw711 what does made for itself even mean? wouldn't t it still be an expression of some fear or love or joy even if th art is being made for no external purpose? even if it was only being created for enjoyment?

I've never done DMT but I've done megadoses of shrooms. What's the difference? and what would I get from DMT or 5meo DMT that I wouldn't get from penis envy megadose?

yea we know that bit already sir I'm saying that it can probably be further articulated and modeled in some way.
