Hey Leo, you told me it took 100,000 - 300,000 pranayamas to reach liberation. Wouldn't I have to read all your enlightenment books as well? I'd love to reach liberation in my 20s with just pranayama, but that doesn't sound realistic.

Hey Leo, can newbies read your book?

Leo I'm trying to do pranayama 36 times for 2 sits a day. But my breathing hasn't adjusted to doing those long breaths for such a long time. So in the middle I sometimes quit. Is it ok to reduce the amount of reps I do in 1 sit to 12 or even 10? And can I have a couple seconds/minutes break every 10/12/24 etc pranayamas, just to catch my breath? Also in the coming months will my lungs adjust so that they've comfortable doing 36 pranayama in a single uninterrupted set? How long does it take to do this?

@Human Mint Do you do kriya? If so what kinds of pranayama do you do?

@Leo Gura is liberation the same thing as enlightenment? If not what's the difference?

CONTEXT: My younger brother is VERY Christian - goes to mass every week, prays every day, keeps images of Christ around etc. He also - Doesn't want to get married - Wants to become a priest - Very adherent to Christian moral principles - He doesn't jerk off he has next to none or zero sex drive All of this seems like typical monk/yogi behaviour so should I try do it and if so how? He is already deeply rooted in his faith. But I was Christian until 10, atheist for 3 years, then became spiritual at 13. If I could make the transition then can he?

Hey Leo, now you don't do daily practice what's the point of meditation?

Well then Leo, what's the point of executing on our ambition then? Other than to fulfill personal cravings? If there's any other reason...

@Leo Gura Started learning KP1 today but skipped over Om Japa in the Chakras - JC Stevens said it was a requirement for KP1. Should I bother doing Om Japa?

Leo what sorts of problems do extroverts have? It'd be nice to know before they come up.

Leo would you recommend your books if you haven't started psychedelics yet?

Leo if we do different pranayama techniques how are we meant to determine what potential modifications to use? Do we follow our intuition as Gamana says?

I heard you don't meditate anymore Leo When would you recommend it? If it helps I'm 18 and never had a psychedelic. And also thanks so much for the pranayama-liberation range. I could reach God in 3-10 years even before tasting a single psychedelic it actually means so much.

Leo do you do any of Steven's KP1, KP2, KP3, Pranayama? Or just Gamanas Supreme Pranayama? I'm thinking of learning pranayama with Stevens then switching to Gamanas Supreme variant when I get better

@mmKay Yea pranayama is the exercise you're is describing Where to start? Leo says in a Book List Review to build a routine read two of the books and lay them together. The review is either book 1 or 2 on the kriya section. Leo also only does Supreme Fire + Pranayama + Maha Mudra (although currently cutting that out). He says those techniques are most effective so I'm doing that. But he also says you should also experiment to see what works for you. I would also read whatever he posts on the forum everyday. And on the advanced search you can look up kriya terms like "kriya" "pranayama" because he offers gold nuggets of advice and information. Like everything he's said in this post was a gold nugget.
