Playing this manner of ego games with @Razard86 is unlikely to bear fruit. If you ask me, however, I say that children shouldn't have their minds sullied by the lewd things of adults argues a good man and a good citizen.

I have myself felt that our western culture alleviates teenagers of too much responsibility on the basis of "oh, they're kids they don't know what they're doing". When I was 9 years old I used to fantasize about fucking 20-year-old girls like crazy. Now maybe not all children enter puberty at that age, but something I've realized is that there could be situations, albeit with supreme scarcity where a child actually rapes an adult. And yet under our statutory rape laws, the victim would be considered the aggressor. And it might even be true that teenagers having sex with one another could be charged with raping one another under the same law. This whole statutory rape law applying to humans in or even post-puberty is some pythonesque absurdum.

This is a different science than what is being practiced. It is essentially a generalistic ideal of what science could or should be. The same fact pattern exists within religion, as an idealistic concept religion is pure and only pertains to the truth, in practice, it's however something very different.

The truth of infinite love has no impact on whether anything is right or wrong. So it would be better to say that it's good for instance, for the highly empathic person who goes on a crusade killing paedophiles to do so, as obviously, they're acting out of love trying to defend prepubescent children from predation. For the same reason that it's good for the paedophile to be as they are, because that's also an instance of love, even if it's a highly selfish form of it.

@BipolarGrowth As of late, I've also felt that Leo's content has started to lose relevance with me, almost as if everything I made Leo to teach me he already had, and if I kept listening he would just reiterate philosophical claptrap that isn't really pertinent to the work I'm doing, no matter how valid it(the philosophy) might be in it's own right. When I realized that humans were capable of attaining a state of infinite power, then months later Leo experiences not in a human state, but a high-level drug-induced Omnipotent state and reports to us about it, that was really when I felt he reached the apex of his usefulness to me, since then it's gradually tapered off. As for solipsism, or to be more specific what you call traditional solipsism. To comprehend how I understand this to be essentially an epistemological blunder, some background theoretical understanding first is necessary. There are essentially two dimensions to how the human mind arrives at intellectual judgments, well three but I'll exclude the emotional dimension here. There are the logico-rational and the emotional-intuitive dimensions, though it's possible to utilize intuition separately from emotions so we could just as simply say the intuitive dimension. When I say logic, I mean one's ability to think on their own and arrive at conclusions independently of input from other sentient beings' thoughts or intelligence. Logic is of course a simple little process, that eliminates impossibilities based on known information. When I say rationale, I'm referring to basically the same process, but instead of generating one's own logic you're just borrowing someone else's, essentially stealing their thoughts and reasoning processes as it was. So the logico-rational dimension of human judgments represents a synthesis of one's own logic and all the logic of perceived other selves. Intuition is difficult to put into words because there is no mechanism for it, you just know something because you know. There are mechanical aspects to this potential, if the self has certain biases which manifest as negative emotional responses, then certain intuitions are blocked for the sake of the ego. Anyway, an example of human intuition is the obvious realization that other humans are "just like you" so to speak. Or in other words, they're a self that also has its own experiences. This intuition then is normally reinforced by the logical thinking mind which may after looking in a mirror, see that oh I have a face, a nose, two eyes etc, thus I'm a member of the same species as the other humans. And of course, when the intuitive and logical dimensions of the mind work synergistically like this, it becomes essentially impossible to imagine that either one could be making an error. And because your experiences of reality are generated by your own mind through basically blind faith. You imaging that others are real and have their own experiences separate from your own makes it so. This is why I've called traditional solipsism an epistemological blunder, because it's simply untrue. So traditional solipsism arises when someone refuses to permit their logical thinking mind to incorporate the intuitions of higher levels of mind. Women tend to be slightly stronger in the emotional-intuitive dimension and this is just a generality of course. But because of this, oftentimes if you teach solipsism to a woman she'll just respond with yeah that got to be bullshit. Which is obviously an illogical argument as you can't debunk something on sheer incredulity or with ad hominem. But it's correct because the truth is others do exist in a very real capacity, and the intuitive mind is always aware of that reality. As such, it's mostly only men that'll buy into this traditional solipsism. And yes, to some extent this a minor criticism of your occasional statement of "if you're an experiential being". Lol, if you imagine me to be I am, and you do, the fact that you're reading these statements is proof of that. The solipsism Leo teaches is radically different from what you call traditional solipsism. So much so that it can even be construed as the same concept without being the same thing at all. And I'd mostly agree with how you've opined on Leo's arguments and statements, though I have to say that it feels like you've mostly addressed just your own understanding of solipsism in the video, and not really necessarily exactly what Leo has to say. This is exactly why Leo decided to take that video down. It became apparent that the vast majority of humans, even many in Leo's audience were insufficient in terms of the prerequisite maturity and experience needed to handle the things he said in the video. It's just too fucking powerful a statement to tell a normal person that they're all that exists, if for no reason other than the fact that they don't really have a clue what that even means. It's almost like those of us that have had higher consciousness experiences are some kind of secret society and we have a covert system of codes and symbols to articulate things no one with only exoteric knowledge can comprehend. And yet we're actually none of those things, it's really just that we've experienced things so far beyond the limits of ordinary human consciousness that our perspective is mostly alien and incomprehensible to your average Joe.

Is this reliance on such primitive concepts as science and technology a useful or hindering proclivity relative to such endeavours? That isn't to say that these can't be of use, they can, but so can a stone wheel cart.

@BipolarGrowth How much control over what you're permitted to do with the class do you have? You could make it a ganja yoga class, or you could do what I'd do. A class that I'd teach would mostly focus on the use of mantras, because I have the most personal experience with that of all yogic/tantric implements. Though I wouldn't want to teach an hour-long class, that's nowhere near enough time if you ask me. Minimum 5 hours, though something like 8-12 hours long would be best.

The subconscious realms increase in power the closer we get to the unconscious from the ordinary conscious mind. The conscious mind in humans, in it's ordinary state of operation has difficulty influencing the levels below it because it's less powerful and objectively less conscious than the "lower" levels of mind. So the conscious mind in humans usually can't operate like the unconscious, as if there were some kind of jamming frequency present, disconnecting the ego mind from the power of the different levels of the human mind, both above and below ordinary human awareness. Just to clarify, when I say power I actually mean omnipotence. Where all states of mind are all-powerful(reality brings form to their thoughts, feelings, desires, and imaginings, for instance, you can be on the moon by thinking you're on the Moon though you were previously on Mars given you're powerful enough), but some more than others. So the normal ego mind is less omnipotent than the subconscious, which is less omnipotent than the unconscious, which is the level from which all possible and impossible realities arise.

You think the universe you're living in is any different from this hypothetical other reality?

This is true. Naturally, intellectuals are too smart to comprehend the impossible, and therefore they cannot possibly hope to understand the universe as it really is. @Razard86 As to the name of this thread, I feel that it's strange you'd want to rid yourself of ego, as that's essentially your ego saying you don't want any ego.

For myself personally, this is technically an ongoing process, I'm yet to get anyway near the full potential of lucidity within the waking dream. But what I can say from a combination of 3rd and 1st person experiences I've had of awakening, you usually go back to something incredibly similar to your old baseline state of consciousness/limitations/experience after your awakening(in the waking dream) experience. And in that state, you're mostly like a normal human, but intellectually know things no normal human does from memory of higher experiences of God-consciousness. This is mostly what's happened to Leo, though as I've implied these experiences do have at least a minor impact on your baseline. Something that should be noted, is that awakening whilst in the waking dream is something very different from waking up from the waking dream. What Leo myself, and many others have done is wake up from the dream, then return to it afterward. Awakening whilst still in the dream is perceived as being much more difficult because in order to dream the dream, you have to be self-fooled sufficiently enough so as to buy into the dream and not simply discard it out of disinterest. It is possible to be awake within the dream and remain within it, but you need either incredibly high sweetness of emotion or attachments and pleasures within the dream so stupidly strong that knowing on all levels that it's a sham doesn't stop you from wanting it anyway. To attempt to put it into sexual terms, imagine feeling sexual lust so strong that your old self on 100 pills of Cialis would pail in comparison to the sheer intensity of the kind of pleasure I'm referencing. When obviously, assuming you could live on that high of a dose, you'd be so horny when encountering the object of your desire that you'd become totally mesmerized as if under a powerful spell.

@onacloudynight In your current state of consciousness, you don't have the power to do that. Well, you could do it, but not without excessively ludicrous levels of persistence and faith. It's probably easier to just not think about them, and instead think about something/someone else you enjoy.

This is somewhat tangent to what you've said, but sexual energy has long been used to bring about altered states of consciousness and to channel vital forces by occultists.

https://erowid.org/experiences/exp.cgi?S1=2 Search for MDMA using ctrl+f and read, that should answer your question. @Yeah Yeah

@Someone here No one controls what you love other than you, and what you love you think you love. And what you think you love, you love. Also, perseverance is among the greatest of all moving forces, it overcomes most everything, even nature itself.

I believe he said that mostly for himself/people on a similar level of development or in other words the few who get it. Leo is of course aware that such a statement is likely to turn off most people, but then again spirituality is probably too alien and intense for most people anyway, as there's this seditious incorrigibility to the human race. Combine that with the essentially quasi-schizophrenic fear-based prison in which humans live, and it's no wonder why they love their dogmas and conventional views so much.

Perhaps the most interesting part about my communication style is its great diversity or at least biphasic nature. One moment, I'll be speaking plainly and cussing my ass off like a sailor. And the next I'll be utilizing a verbose, and elegant repertoire in selcouth elegance, straight-laced like an American version of the Queen's English. On a side note, spell correct thinks I'm trying to say outhouse because it isn't familiar with the term selcouth lol.

All communication is inherently manipulative because all manipulation boils down to is ultimately influence. Any moralizing is horrendously subjective because any model of morality we conceive of is just as valid as any alternative. As such, it's perhaps wrong or foolish to demonize manipulation or manipulators, because we are all manipulators ourselves. Manipulation ultimately exists for the same reason that everything else does. Because objectively speaking, it is very good. Without manipulation, orgasms wouldn't be possible or even thinkable, currency based or indeed any form of economics would be impossible, hell even basic human interaction wouldn't be possible. A world without manipulation is a world you don't want to live in.

Lol, people eat that? It looks like pieces of tree bark almost. No wonder why they throw away that part of it.

I like how shortly after this statement all the acrimonious debate terminates.

Psychedelics literally are alien substances. I assume you're certain these Jedi Mind Fuck shrooms are legitimately Psilocybe Cubensis(if I got the species right)? It's obviously improbable that you went picking them in the forest otherwise you'd probably be telling us a rather different story, or you might even be dead. More likely you bought either spores and grew them, or you bought the end product itself from a vendor you trust. At any rate, as far as I know, there isn't any experimental evidence to support the notion that acidic environments break Psilocybin into Psilocin. So the whole hypothesis behind the lemon tek method is potentially bogus. Though I suspect the people who do it experience some actual benefit anyway, especially when you consider how psychedelics tend to empower the mind. However, the addition of ginger is useful because ginger is known to combat nausea/motion sickness, with which some people struggle when doing mushrooms. As for the advice to throw out the flesh, I have no idea where that's coming from. The chemical constituency of specific parts of hallucinogenic mushrooms doesn't appear to be of significance, or at least I'm not aware of any literature that even bothers to mention it. However, based on what I'm reading from end users, the body may contain too many non-hallucinogenic carbohydrates and such that would be difficult to digest for some people. My advice though? Get yourself some 4 ACO DMT. It'll mind fuck you much better than any psilocybin-bearing mushroom. I'll post a link to a trip report of it, though keep in mind the man did 100mg, which is the equivalent of like 7 hits of acid or so. Nonetheless, it's a wonderful example of what this chemical can do. https://erowid.org/experiences/exp.php?ID=101131

It's profound as fuck anything can become anything when you realize that nothing actually exists.

@Razard86 Who doesn't love to play with themself? Catholic nuns? Well.... in my experience they do lol.

Of course, the profundity of this will be lost on many due to the constraints of conventional morality. What's profound is that because I am everything, I can be absolutely anything, therefore I am whatever I permit myself to become. Which is the same as saying that because I am nothing, I can be anything because there's nothing like me to impose limits upon me.

I agree, if you were truly enlightened, you could take weapons of mass destruction to your dick without breaking your meditation. But not like those ones we said were in Iraq, the real McCoy. Like the ones we dropped on Beijing, uh I mean *George W Bush sounds* Nagasaki and Hiroshima.
