Hmm Good post, can't disagree for the time being. I do think humanity could reach a point where these issues wouldn't exist. But yes at the present level of consciousness humanity is at, these are good rules to follow.

Keep searching. The beauty is this whole thing is whatever you desire to know, you can find out. So just put that intention out there and you can find out. One of the secrets I'm noticing people are getting tripped up on is the word ONE and Infinity. They don't seem to understand it, and thats why they don't understand the Infinity of Gods. Study some near death experiences, it will give you some clues to piece the puzzle together.

I think he would tell us first before he did.

Who didn't know this would be a curb stomp? LOL https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oL2FRNOCKfg

All true!!! Every word in this post is true!! Even the comical aspect!!! We are all so funny!!! That is why comedy exists!! We need to allow ourselves to laugh at our silliness!!! Thanks for this post!!! I love you all!!

This is also true!!! Its my greatest weakness!! I keep trying to tell people what they shouldn't do, and not being okay with allowing them to fail!! Its so true!! Some things people need to experience to appreciate the wisdom of your advice. It hurts when it is someone you care about....but they got to go through some of the things you went through at their own pace and own time. I love your post man!!!

I'm glad you know the secret. The irony is...what you are talking about is integrating the feminine. The feminine tames the Masculine's need for control. Also The feminine within you is how you interact with the feminine outside you. The reason you won't need a woman's approval, is because the feminine within you approves of you. Everything you said is true, but what it reveals is you need to complete the Inner marriage, before you can have a true outer marriage. I love this post! Keep dropping wisdom bombs!!! Do it as much as the U.S. bombs the world.

You won't believe how scared I was to do so and I recognized instantly why. I was too concerned with how I would look, "Then I was like well this is the real me, my most authentic self. Why should I be afraid of this?" I'm going to keep doing that. Questioning a fear till its silliness causes it to fade away. I've done it in the past but I've gone away from it. Thanks for your response!!

I have a desire for people to succeed. My greatest fear is for others to make the same mistakes I have made. I give advice so that people can avoid certain pitfalls. I've realized I have an insatiable desire to control people through forcefully trying to get them to agree with me on topics. I realize I lack self-love in this topic. The truth is I'm trying to live out vicariously through others, by trying to push them where I am scared to go myself. I refuse to avoid looking at calling myself out. I've noticed its the greatest fear others have. Its not that I like being called out, its that I hate not knowing what issues may lie below the surface. Humanity fears the truth above all else. I'm not just talking just absolute truth a.k.a. God. Humans fear examining their actions, or the motivations behind said actions, or the consequences of said actions. I'm motivated to these things and I project it onto others. Its ridiculous, I become callous and try to force the person to look at themselves, to self-reflect, and to come to terms with the feelings they avoid so much. It has tested many of my relationships, it has causes distance between us even driven one friend away. But they always come back, always come back saying things like "What you said was true, I needed that" etc. But it pains me because its an obsession I have with myself that I force upon others. I want others to believe in themselves, to see the best in themselves, and I know the motivation behind those actions is because its what I most want for me. Again all projection. I'm projecting so much its sickening. Its funny, even though I am like this I love this aspect of myself. But I realize, its not healthy. I may need to distance myself from the pain of others, and focus on the pain I have within. I'm just using others as a distraction, its funny I thought I didn't have any real trauma, but anytime you have a negative reaction it means you have a fear/bias/trauma there. My greatest fear is that I cannot save others, which really just means that I believe I cannot save myself. So I will have learn to trust myself more, both the little me, and God me. Trust that everything is under control. I know it is, but sometimes I forget when I watch others suffer. You all really do not understand how connected we are. When you suffer, we all suffer. I thought I could shield myself from the sufferings of others...I cannot. I believe you are not meant to. You are meant to experience both the Absolute and the Relative perspective. Here is a Ram Dass video that illustrates this point. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ym4Rpd72tq8

.....The relative is a dream. Again its a dream. Its a dream that at our baseline level feels real so for you its real. I won't deny its realness because that is how God creates. But you are not understanding. You cannot conflate something from which something comes forth. If I want to understand a plant, I need to understand the seed. If I want to understand a child I need to understand the parent. You need to study the absolute to understand the relative. The focus should be on the absolute. The relative is constantly changing, it is impermanent. The Absolute does not change. Its permanent. That means you need to study the Absolute and frame things from that perspective first if you want to understand the impermanent. Basically don't get lost in the ego games, transcend them. Ask yourself that if you are the creator and you just fell asleep, if you were to awaken in the dream what would be the purpose for it. Notice God has given its characters in the dream the opportunity to awaken to this. What would be the purpose behind it? I'm sure its not to spend time debating on the impermanent constantly changing reality that the character has very little influence over. Its not conflation, its perspective correction. In the words of Paul When I was a child I did as a child, when I became a man I put away childish things. Even Jesus stated not to worry about tomorrow. Every time we debate....we are just playing an ego game. I've debated for years on almost every topic both in person and online and after all those years (30 +) you realize...its pointless. The zeitgeist is going to be what it is. You only have a small influence over it. It transcends your finite being. So basically its better for me to share, listen more, and accept what is, versus debating all the time about what should be better. That's the gist of what I am saying. But the great thing is...you are free to do as you will. I'll love you all the same. Watch this. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VI220ydXj1Q This man leads a ridiculous number of people. You have Billionaire and Millionaire CEOs asking him how he does it. Its this. The problem with growing up in Western Culture is we have been taught to be opinionated and to critique and debate, and dissect, etc etc. It doesn't work long term because eventually the person feels like they cannot do anything right. Notice also, your life will start to feel that way as well. Because yourself won't be able to reach your own standards if you direct it towards yourself.

You are like a brother from another mother man! Love you too man!!! Everything you said is true and I love your ability to combine poetry and prose together. Its like you know how to make poetry and prose make love with each other and create a powerful image. Its like as Tupac would say "You paint a perfect picture" and you do it with your words! So thank you for that. You know in Indian Culture Shiva's love is likened to the Sun! So I guess I'm displaying a Shiva characteristic lol. And yes you are right, we are all One and the same. We are just playing with our self. So I am going to show more compassion for me and others and only give breadcrumbs. When they ask for more I will give more, and not try to force feed them. I will trust the greater intelligence at hand. Everything is actually perfect.

Yes and this is what I must master. Which is why I love Leo's how to love others video. Its like the perfect video of how to truly show platonic love. I would only alter some of it for romantic love (I'd add spontaneity, humor, playfulness, for romantic love and then keep everything the same). But yes I need to learn the balance. Thanks as always. Your responses always warm my being!!

That video while well meaning isn't going to help him. Until you work on accepting people for who they are, you aren't going to have real friends. What you need to watch is this. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EzTEzav5l20 The closer you get to outlining these traits, the better every single relationship you ever have will be. There is a trap though, two actually. 1. You still need to have healthy boundaries so don't allow people to take advantage of you 2. Don't lie and delude yourself by doing things out of duty. If you do you will (keep score) and resent them. So only agree to do things for people out of your love for them without excepting anything back. If you can give to others lovingly you will gain friends. I've done this my whole life, and its why I have people I can call and have deep conversations with. They trust me completely because they know I love them and only want the best for them. People who can embody majority of those traits are rare. So you have the privilege of those rare relationships.

You think I don't know that? I use to use the same arguments you are currently using...but then you realize...it literally is all for naught. This conversation we are having is not going to change those kids in Africa. Also if you understand how reality works, even those kids in Africa can make a change in their lives. Remember what I said....pick a route and go. You can pick your path, I don't think you all understand what it means when it is said you are God. Life doesn't happen to you, you are life. So if you are it....then you can choose the direction. Your human body is basically a walking simulator. Me and you can be in the same room but our experience will be different. Ask yourself why? There is no objective experience. That is the clue. Its all freaking subjective. I have been running tests this whole week with my thoughts, and dreams. Your reality mirrors your thoughts, feelings, and visualizations. You are unconsciously creating your reality. This is why I have been saying on the forums but people aren't getting it. A Psychedelic is just a mirror of how your reality works. Your whole life is just a trip. The same way your thoughts and beliefs and feelings influence those trips is the same way your "real" life works. Also....how in the world can someone conflate the Meta Truth over the truth. You need to notice how funny that sounds. The Meta supercedes the relative because the relative is born out of the Meta. The relative is the illusion when compared to the Meta. So the Meta is the key to figuring out how to navigate the relative.

I hear ya.

We don't need anything. We don't need to solve anything. Just choose a direction and go, and whatever comes your way accept it. You can either flow through life, or fight it. There are no problems. The belief in problems...is the only problem lol.

Exactly... thats what all debates are, a critique of a critique!!! Glad you noticed!!!

Yep

If you are trying to eliminate suffering that itself is a fear. Notice that. You don't try to eliminate anything. You accept the experience of life itself. The whole spiritual path is about learning to embrace the different experiences as they arise. Its also learning about how to navigate towards the ones you want which is creation. So navigate your path, and accept whatever comes along that path. Because each experience is impermanent and it too shall pass.

THIS!!! A solution may be the simple but the implementation is often a process.

You really do not understand that criticism is untenable. I'm not conflating the relative and absolute, the absolute dissolves the relative. Infinite intelligence created everything. This cannot be disputed if you believe in Non-Duality. If this is true, then all criticism is meaningless. So why do we do it? Because we are selfish. The truth is, everything is perfect. I'm not saying this to sound airy fairy. Its literally true. Why? Because God cannot force us to change, because God has unconditional love. So you are right in that we can push for things to change, but how fast they change is not within the ego's control. Right now as we type all this and discuss all this, is any of this going to lead to any meaningful change? No. It will spark some change since all actions are interconnected. But in the grand scheme of things, change is slow unless something dramatic happens. When dramatic things happen a paradigm shift happens. But we have no control over all that from the ego perspective, so then what are we really doing here? Complaining, venting. I'm not saying we don't have the right, I'm just pointing out the pointlessness of it all. Again all criticism is just delusion, all logic is only as strong as its relevance to the environmental factors, what is called the zeitgeist. In statistics, you are lucky if your model has a 70 % success rate. The impermanence of life make all criticism untenable, the lack of control of the ego makes all criticism untenable, and the lack of the big picture it makes it all untenable. Its why I said you can try to argue against my points but you won't make sense. You judge yourself, so you don't even trust yourself because you fall short. You judge the design of reality which is constructed and maintained by infinite intelligence so that doesn't make sense. Your perspective is that of the ego, and the ego has never done anything ever. These discussions are just a game, a game I have played for years but its not really even constructive in moving reality towards the scenario you are pushing for.

Lol no offense dude but your reality is so got dang limited. Me and my friends can have long discussions about topics. This men don't do that is such a limited perspective. I have friends who kill it, and we can still have long meaningful conversations about topics like relationships, money, video games, politics, health, fashion, etc. A lot of us are well read and well-informed. So yeah your reality is just your reality, and a very limited one. Feminine is the relating energy. So yes staying in touch is feminine. If you do not incorporate your feminine side as a man you will never have deep relationship with anybody, including yourself. So he isn't wrong, he just follows the male stereotype. Do you see how Leo communicates in his videos? How he is emotionally open? He smiles, he cries, Leo is harnessing the Feminine and that is why his videos resonated with many of you on this forum. By watching Leo's videos you felt like you made a deep connection with him. For Leo to do that he had to be vulnerable, and open. That takes courage. The Masculine and Feminine are both strong but they express it in different ways. The Feminine opens itself up to being harmed, the Masculine defends itself and puts up barriers. Both are examples of strength, but in truth the Feminine example takes more courage. Its why the fear of public speaking is so high on people's lists, and why most of us struggle to deal with people in general. You have to be able to handle the pain that people inflict on you, to really connect with them. All of my relationships are pretty much deep with my closest friends. We call each other out on our B.S. when we argue we understand the intention behind each other so we forgive each other easily. The more selfish you are, less deep your relationships will be. Also relationships are the greatest spiritual test in your life, and they reveal all your insecurities, fears, and all your love and peace.

I don't support these actions, but as a tax payer my taxes support it. It is what it is. The true nature of humanity should reflect our human body. The same way calories work in our body, vitamins and minerals etc, is the same way we should structure out society. Then our relationships with other nations should expand where we don't have different nations per say, but we collectively identify as ONE and stop these silly ego games we play. But since we are so far from that....we try to find short term solutions as commentators on this forum. It is what it is.

I disagree, the man talks for hours giving hundreds of examples. But hey we just simply see things differently its cool.
