Why are we even here? We are here to experience. Everything is an experience. Some experiences are pleasant, some are unpleasant, some of neutral. Everyone is playing their parts, acting in accordance with their characters, wearing their personas, believing they actually are who they are pretending to be. Its cute really. But i understand sometimes it can be nauseating to be the only one on stage who knows its make believe.

Be Your Own Therapist, Teacher, Guru, Priest, Shaman, Parent. You are all you truly need.

Should you judge people on appearance? Yes, relative to the situation. If some goes to a job interview dressed for a football game, or wears a tuxedo to the gym, judge them. They are not playing by the social rules for the persona interactions. Fat people are not fat. Fat people have excess body fat. People are not drug addicts. People have drug addictions. This difference between "people are" vs "people have" is massively important.

Lol never introduce a woman to someone more alpha than you unless you want her to branch swing up to him.

Ive listened to the Ultimate Guide to Happiness episode now 3 times. It is honestly my favorite video in years. I don't know why it never occurred to me before to simply write down the things that make me happy, unhappy, or what i think will make me happy but doesn't. Very happy this episode was released. Im gonna write that down.

This is why forums are so annoying.

Looking for good quality red pill podcasts / youtube channels? Thanks

Spiritual Autolysis in action! @Thought Art Keep going until you find satisfactory answers to all your questions. Peel that onion layer by layer. You know youre done searching when you have no more questions.

@Nilsi meant on YouTube. I like UG Krishnamurti. Ramana Maharahi is my guy.

Great thread, i too sometimes find myself looking for other speakers, but i find myself just re-listening to Actualized. Seriously no one is on Leo's level when it comes to quality of material, quantity of material, directness of method, or ability to deconstruct and explain

Recommended asking yourself what ego is.

This is God That is God I am God You are God He is God She is God We are God God is God

The AEIOU is God The Absolute The Eternal The Infinite The One-True The Universal See the 99 Names of God episode for more on this topic.

Thats it right there. Being happy vs not being happy is a duality. The lower self "you" aka can never be truly happy, unconditionally happy, because its happiness in conditional on having its needs, wants, desires fulfilled. When the lower self "you" tames the fire breathing dragon of desire, want and need, the lower self is transcended. Then conditional happiness is seen for the illusion/duality it is, and what remains is unconditional Happiness w capital H or Peace w capital P, or Acceptance, or Love of What Is.

Nonduality is not about happiness or peace. Nonduality is about Truth. The truth shall set you free, but it wont make you happy. Happiness and peace are emotions experienced by the self. self, happiness and peace only exist within duality. After happiness comes sadness, then happiness comes again. After peace comes war, then peace comes again. The best thing to do is to minimize your suffering, such that any future disturbances to your inner peace are mere scuffles, rather than full blown wars. I recommend studying the 4 nobles truths, eightfold path, and the 3 characteristics of Buddhism in addition to Non-Dualism to help bridge the gap.
