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.

One of the things I was shown a couple of weeks ago was that our mind was infinite. I find a lot of times we like to place limitations on ourselves and claim our mind is finite. This is not true....currently right now your mind is infinite, its just the aspects of your mind that are beyond the finite are outside of your awareness. There are experiences you can have that will reveal the boundless nature of your mind. But the issue I have is, why is it so difficult to access and utilize this aspect within ourselves. Its one of the things that eludes me. Our mind is infinite yet for some reason in our normal direct experience it feels finite. If you go through a kundalini awakening for example the infinite nature of your mind is revealed to you. It is done rather forcefully as well, you get to see how boundless your mind really is, and I am not saying its exactly comfortable either it is kind of roughly revealed to you how much your mind can be stretched past the limits you impose on it....and how deep the rabbit hole of your mind can actually go. Its one of the most jaw-dropping, creepy, and awe-inspiring moments you will ever come across. Think of your mind being penetrated twisted and turned upside down and inside out from every angle and vantage point imaginable. While this is happening you are constantly being shown images of various emotional expressions. Might even see some animation or scenes along with still images of both beauty and horror. It was certainly something unlike anything I ever experienced. But yeah your mind is infinite, anyone telling you its finite is mistaken.

You are correct, but its a whole rabbit hole, got to guide them carefully.

Study intuition. That is the answer.

While I don't agree with U.S.'s spending on weapons packaging as you mentioned the U.S. is doing that to limit Russia's global influence. The U.S. does not want Russia to ever become a Super Power again so they will constantly play this chess game with them to limit and even reduce their economic and military prowess. It is what it is. America enjoys its economic power through these games they play in their foreign affairs. Foreign Affairs to them are the true Domestic Affairs lol

You should Leo it will help you but its true. I'll give you some examples. Democrats right now appeal to the educated class. People have done whole articles about when this shift happened. They use to appeal to the everyday man but they have become narcissistic themselves in regards to how they deal with the professional and highly educated class. As a result most of their perspectives and communications cannot reach the everyday blue collar worker because they have cut themselves off from the source. If you read the article I gave you, you would see they actually sabotaged their best candidate Bernie Sanders. Bernie Sanders had a higher approval rating than any other Democrat outside of Barack Obama. But the media, and the Democratic Establishment got together to stop him from winning. So yeah the Democrats are in their own way. They are sabotaging themselves, I could go even further in depth even more, could write a whole book on how they feed the same system as the Republicans and just the lesser of two evils. The best chance is hopefully this new generation of Democrats. Hopefully they will push to dismantle this corrupt corporation led system. I like multiparty system the Countries in Europe have, I do not believe this two party system is good enough, and don't get me started on the Electoral College.

You don't know Eckhart Tolle, you have no idea how much healing he had to go through. You need to study human psychology. Your mind can trick you into thinking you are healed and with the right trigger that trauma can come out. Also there are some theories about why some people heal faster that goes beyond conventional wisdom. It goes into the whole past lives theories etc. So they would only be the exception based on those theories because they completed in their past lives. Most trauma happens in early development when your ability to cope and manage stress is underdeveloped. That memory is then stored from that vantage point, the vantage point of the age it happened to you. It is not some simple process to just undue that, and even worse that trauma like I mentioned before can be HIDDEN from you and you aren't even aware it exists. So Leo isn't wrong, healing takes time. Its why they say time heals all wounds, it does. Besides....you never even defined what long and short in regards to healing speed is in your perspective. You can't make a claim or an assertion without explaining the terms of what you are asserting. Otherwise its just some vague notion you threw out there. Anyway welcome to the forums!!!

I've had the knowledge for awhile but this illustration of this concept came as I was talking to my friend. My whole life when I talk to my friend who is a good listener, God would just start sending me ephanies. Then miraculously I was like, I'm gonna share this with some people so I started to write it...and it just came to me. I truly realize all copyright and trademark is delusion. I couldn't recreate something like this if I tried. They call it flow, when you can just connect with your divine self and things just come to you. I've been studying intuition recently because its the key for all of us to reach our true expression. We were meant to be creators here.

I agree and that adjustment process.....woah its a trip!!!

A lie by definition is an intention to deceive. You cannot lie by accident, that is just ignorance. Ignorance and a lie are not the same. So no the non-narcissist intends to tell lies. If I ask you a question and you gave me the wrong answer but you thought it was right, that was not a lie just ignorance. All lies are intentional. Lies are motivated by fear. A lie is an attempt to control a situation due to fear. Fear of embarrassment, fear of losing something, fear of not getting something, fear of etc..... Its quite simple really.

Oh my gosh I am sooooo happy you didn't try it!! Fentanyl is VERY DANGEROUS!!!

You did not look this up, there is literally a video by Leo that is entitled Why Brains Do Not Exist. If you just go to youtube and type in Leo Gura Brain you would get the video where he explains it........ this reveals you are not serious about self-inqury. Because you are not even motivated enough to find a video entitled "Why Brains Do Not Exist."

You care about your friends greatly. You are deluding yourself. If you did not care about your friends their opinions couldn't effect you and we wouldn't be having this conversation. If a stranger says something to you, its less likely to bother you because you don't know them. But the more you connect with someone the more ability they have to influence your feelings. When you connect with someone you give them some access to your heart, the closer they get in intimacy they closer they are to your heart. The person you love the most can hurt you the most, by cursing you out, betraying you, or dying. So yes you care about them, otherwise their opinions wouldn't matter. The only time you care about a stranger's opinion, is when your opinion of yourself gets so low, you let everyone's comments influence you. But even that is just delusion, the only reason that was even possible is because you already felt like that. Because the opinion you care the most about....is yourself, and you are not very kind to yourself. Be more kind to yourself.

I get his point, he is basically saying life has the same theme. Basically when you look at life its all a game. He is likening it to a survival game. So because he is using that lens he can liken everything to survival. I can't argue that the modern world and premodern world pretty much mirror themselves in this aspect. I also cannot say in a sense that he is wrong. But the reason the self-love lens works the best is because it is backed by the foundation of source. Looking at life from a survival lens is how an ego would look at it. If you look at it from a self-love perspective you wouldn't see it like that. Its just another way to look at it. I'm starting to see the futility of even disagreeing with people now a days lol because everything is just a perspective. I do believe the Self- Love perspective is the highest perspective because it is the perspective of Infinity but I also realize....that infinity would embrace all perspectives as all the possible expressions of itself. Think of each perspective like a child, it claims all its children. No matter how wayward they are lol.
