@Buck Edwards Emotional is the border zone between Biological and Psychological since emotions are experienced in both the body and the mind.

@koops Preach! This is exactly what I needed to read today. That entire message is going into my Wisdom Book.

Hey Trenton. Brave share! I understand the feeling of self help exhaustion / depression. It can truly be daunting to evaluate our lives and see all the things "wrong" with our current lives. First, we need to stop thinking of life or success or growth in terms of "wrong/right, failure/successful, defective/functional". This is a value judgment by our inner critic sub-mind. Instead, where we are in life, how we are doing, how successful we are, etc, are simply experiences. Do you use the Wheel of Life to track your feelings about your life areas periodically, say every 3 months? I find it helpful to pick 1 or 2 areas of the wheel max, and focus on those areas for 3-6 months. Trying to work on every area at once can be too much. Here my 12 areas: 1 - Physical Health / Well-Being 2 - Emotional / Psychological Health / Well-Being 3 - Living Environment 4 - Familial Relationships 5 - Friendships and Social Circle 6 - Intimate Relationships / Sexual Well-Being 7 - Education / Career / Work / Labour 8 - Money / Finances 9 - Recreation / Hobbies / Activities / Leisure 10 - Personal Development 11 - Knowledge / Understanding / Wisdom 12 - Spirituality / Religion I group these into Health (1-3), Love (4-6), Wealth (7-9), Self (10-12)

Keep digging through the layers y'all. When you have found satisfactory answers to all of your questions, your seeking and searching is over. You have found.

I like to think of reality as an infinite spectrum, with the absolute at both end, and the relative everything thing in between: So at the lowest end of the spectrum everything is quanta. Then the spectrum moves up into energy, sub atomic, atomic, molecular, cellular (hi my nerve cell) organic (hi my brain), animal, human, behavioral, archetypal, emotional, sociological, psychological, soulful, spiritual. Then at the highest end of spectrum everything is divine consciousness. Outside of both ends is nothingness. Within is everythingness. This model works for me. The divisions, like all divisions are arbitrary.

All levels of reality are valid. So you both do and do not have a brain, depending on which level you think about it.

Preach!

@ChrisZoZo cool, I'm not familiar with his work. Care to share more or a clip of his?

I like to use 666 as the will of the ego, the sign of the beast, the devil within, the Freudian Id, the survival and reproduction drives, lower survival consciousness. Then I use 777 as the will of the divine self, the I Am, the channelling of the infinite eternal divine into the finite temporal divine, the higher spiritual consciousness. Then I use 888 as the will of the infinite divine, the absolute, the eternal, the ultimate, the all, the totality, the reality, the truth.

Are they physically safe to attend? Yes. Are they psychologically safe to attend? That depends on your level of critical thinking skills. I attended in person Scientology events in Toronto for 3 years prior to 2020 spending less than $300. Most groups will try to pressure sell. Just don't hand over your credit cards while under the spiritual influence. Whether or not a certain program is worth a certain price is relative to the buyer/consumer/receiver of the good service. Some precautions: - the teachings should be more important than than the teachers - the seekers should eventually become finders and teachers to others - if someone has been seeking for 20 years without finding, that's a red flag that they / the group are on a spiritual carousel, just going around in circles without breaking free from and out of samsara wheel - if the group refuses to see the value in other types of teachings or certain types of teachers that's a red flag - the group teachings are exoteric rather than esoteric is a sign the group lacks the occult knowledge necessary for real spiritual evolution

This is an amazing post! A mastery explanation of masculine and feminine energies. In my numerology I use 0 to represent the feminine and 1 to represent the masculine. 0 as a symbol is a womb-like, vaginal-like, and egg-shaped whereas 1 as a symbol is phallic in shape. 0 dimension is the point. 1 dimension is the line, the extension of the point into space. When 0 and 1 unite, their energies create a second dimension: the angle, which is 2, the child. The second line intersects with first line, creating the cross, the Christ, the child of God. Each of us are children of the masculine/feminine union, each of us have a divine light within, the Christ within, Buddha nature, the Atman, call it what you will. So each person has 2 lines, 4 quadrants within their inner cross. The horizontal line of the cross represents their parents, the vertical line of the cross represents the person. The left side of the cross represents the feminine, the right side of the cross represents the masculine, as 0 is to the left of 1. The top left quadrant of the cross is the inner feminine energy / psycho-emotional forces / drives. The top right quadrant of the cross is the inner masculine energy / psycho-emotional forces / drives. The bottom right quadrant of the cross is the external masculine beginning with the biological father and extending to all forms of masculine energy in the environment. The bottom left quadrant of the cross is the external feminine beginning with the biological mother and extending to all forms of feminine energy in the environment. Understanding how these masculine and feminine energies impact our bodies, minds, families, friendships, groups, organizations, communities, societies, countries, the planet and our universe is crucial for our individual journeys of personal evolution which is ultimately why we are alive and exist.

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.

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

This is why forums are so annoying.

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.
