You might consider using something with xylitol. It hinders bacteria growth in your mouth. I'm making my own toothpaste: - Coconut oil as a base (also has antibacterial properties) - erythritol, which is similar to xylitol and is also a sweetener - a bit of baking soda for lowering acidity and slight whitening - mint and clove essential oils, for freshness and lowering inflammation

Nice! It will certainly be more useful for brainstorming spiritual topics than vanila model. It resoponded to my test question well: https://chatgpt.com/share/670db1df-e618-800e-a98d-ca1bd674c3ee

@pausona Are you able to summarize what kind of advice do you seek? What is it that you want to change?

@Leo Gura It's uncanny! They must have based the coyote on you! Good Lord! This little scene encapsulates so much of your energy. Big "aha" moment for me... Leo = spiritual coyote

Extraterrestrials From the two, definetly your own insights. Text combined with a video or pics, even better.

Checking your blog is a habit for me. Over time, it helped me broaden my horizons, in many ways. I appreciate the diversity of insights and cool info. I read it less nowadays, because I'm not currently focused on geopolitics, terrorists, and such.

It definitely feels like that for me. But I avoid thinking about it in this way. Because you CAN make it fun for yourself. Relationships may not be the best thing you can imagine, but you sure can make them feel worse by resisting and dwelling on the impurity. In other words, I do relate, but I am also mindful of how I am creating the experience.

Have you done anything to atract them? Like the CE5 or anything of that kind? Have you had any closer UFO/ET encounters? And to what degree are you into this topic? I recently started learning about the phenomena but haven't experienced anything physical (I had one weird dream). So I would appreciate your response on that.

To anyone that wants to understand Musk's perspective. An alternative to watching hours of him talk: Elon Musk's biography by Walter Isacsoon. It shows Musk's perspective quite well without sugarcoating anything. Interviews are useful for observing a person directly, the way they talk and act in general. But if you want focused and detailed account of the relevant events that shaped Elon as a person, this is the place to go.

@Something Funny If you care about understanding Musk, I highly recommend his latest biography by Walter Isacsoon. It's quite detailed and long but not boring. Elon's life haven't been boring. I think Walter likes Elon, but he doesn't sugarcoat anything, and clearly disagrees with him on many things. (I watched interviews with W.I.) From the book you can learn about Musk's vision and shadows, and how do they show in his professional and personal life.

Bashar Or any other channeler, though I feel like Bashar is the most certain to deliver something worthwhile. Not sure how that would work, but I would love to see Leo talk to him because I feel like people underutilize the potential of channelers by asking generic, unchallenging, and unuseful questions. That would be a chance to bridge New Age and serious philosophy. Bashar is usually open to discussing anything, and is very non-judgmental, although keeps strict opinions on some topics. Do you think that's realistic? @Leo Gura

@Leo Gura I understand that you want to have those conversation hosted by someone else? I am curious: Why not invite someone to talk on your channel?

Of course, we are interested! Putting your ideas in the context of live conversation helps to ground them properly in the mind. TOE interviews were amazing for that. And I believe J.P. could prove a very good host as well. For me, it would be double fun, because I read and watched J.P. a lot before discovering your content, and moved on since. It would be exciting to see how Peterson would relate to your perspective.

When I was 10, I had a surgery with narcosis. It was like you describe it. But I do remember the feeling of losing my consciousness a minute after administration. It was like falling asleep in acceleration.

@Something Funny I get it. When I lived in an apartment, I felt the same. When I wanted to walk barefoot in the forest, I would go out in shoes, and than take them off. But it really depends on whether you care about what your neighbors think.

@Something Funny You will get some attention and looks. Some people will make comments, mostly jokingly. It quickly gets tiring, so I use barefoot shoes whenever I go to the city or when I'm meeting someone.

I can give you the perspective of someone who is into barefoot walking. I've had months of daily 6-8km walks in the forest, all barefoot. I've also walked plenty around the city, even in Warsaw. The biggest risks for me are protruding roots and sharp stones. You develop an instinct after some time, that allows you to move with more precision, but once every month or two you will definitely get a bruise or a small cut. There are smaller things like pine needles, cones, and gravel. Not dangerous but can be painful. The longer you walk, the tougher your feet get. I've never been cut with glass outdoors, despite there being a ton of broken bottles in the forest and on the sidewalks. I find that big shards rarely cut into the skin, even if you step directly onto them. Of course, you want to minimize such incidents. The amount of ticks will depend mostly on the places you'll go to. Obviously, the more skin you expose, the more bugs you invite. I was mainly bitten by ants tho. As for infections, I've never had a problem with that, but I also never had any major injury which would be the major factor. You wash your feet regularly and you'll be fine. All of what I wrote assumes that you are careful, watch your step, and use your common sense. Running is different. You need to have a good surface for that. The risk raises exponentially with your speed and the amount of irregularities on the ground. If you choose a good path and constantly monitor the ground, you can run and even sprint. Overall, I would say it's worth it if you like the feeling. There is a whole health argument for it, but I am no expert. It feels healthy and my feet have a nicer shape. For me, it's mostly fun and having additional sensations.

I also struggle on LSD - ecstatic peaks and brutal comedowns. Try boofing 2C-B. For me it is similar to LSD but more positive. Much shorter duration, and allows for redosing during the trip. More predictable than shrooms. I tried it in moderate ranges (up to ~25mg rectally) and had only positive experiences.

Someone already mention the ufo subreddit (https://www.reddit.com/r/UFOs/). It's a bit spammy but they post relevant news from time to time. Some news I heard about: - On the legal front, a couple of days ago, a text of new version of the UAP disclosure act was released. A similar one had been passed recently but in a watered-down version, so pro-disclosure senators are pushing for an upgrade. If successful, it will be voted with the 2025 National Defense Authorization Act. - Lue Elizondo is releasing a book soon. - If you choose to trust channelers like Darryl Anka (Bashar), some of them are quite confident about upcoming big contact events in the next few years. Bashar himself pointed to 2026/27. His transmissions in the past years shifted strongly towards this subject. You can check out "The Social Experiment" and the September event in Sedona.

I tried 5-meo only 4 times, but this is how it felt. I turned into the colorful soup from the picture, with some abstract remnants of my humanity floating around.

@Leo Gura Your reflections on your style of communication made me think of an analogy I made up. In Dune by Frank Herbert, everyone has shields that cover the whole body. Their main mechanic is that they can only be penetrated by a slowly moving object. If you shoot or punch it too hard, it will act like non-newtonian fluid, and stop the attack. So in this universe military is back to blades and soldiers are trained in a dedicated martial art focused on slow attacks (for penetration) and fast defense (for deflection). Human discussions have this dynamic. They are this quirky dance in which you can't force anything if you care to have a deep impact. This analogy got my stubborn father to see that he was wrong for drastic examples for discussing sensitive topics. Like comparing all left-leaning ideas to communists. Or overusing reductio ad absurdum argument. And when called out, he would get self-righteous and defensive. He would immediately activate his shield... This analogy was my slow blade

@Leo Gura Listening to you again is a joy, Leo! And your delivery did change a bit. Just like you mentioned in some of the episodes before the break: less harsh, and more compassionate. It helps absorb the content better. You maintained your characteristic bluntness, but without unnecessary radicalization or overexaggaration which would happen in past episodes. At least that's how it felt to me after a long break from watching your videos.

In my experience, Tiktok algorithm is very responsive to my activity. I use it only for business purposes. After two days of researching products, and intentionally interacting with certain posts, my feed turned into a focused stream of product ads, which was exactly what I wanted. Once I got distracted by some health hacks, and after watching them for a while, I got more health hacks.

For anyone reading, here's an update after one month: I made slight progress in the business itself, because of persistent backlashes. Mind is using distraction and rationalization to avoid changing core beliefs. But I finally got a bit clearer picture and with it sense of empowerment. Here's a short reflection on the nature of my procrastination, for anyone struggling with a similar problem I didn't want to accept the compromise. The injustice in the world, the fact that some people are stuck in low consciousness and that I would benefit from their misery, made me question my right to success. I feared that if I allowed myself to take imperfect action, I would waste my full potential. I've taken pride in my holistic approach. I've mislabeled denial of raw reality for having high standards. I resisted taking part in what I perceived to be a flawed process. I forgot that everything happens for a reason. That the dark side of business is a valid part of reality. And the "flawed" process is perfect in the cosmic sense. I can decide to accept or resist it. Accept myself as a part of it. I refused to take direct responsibility. Conceptually, I understand that capitalism is a necessary step in human evolution. My whole life I consumed its products. But I refused to be an active participant. I am fine with the system as long as I'm not the one selling and marketing. I am rationalizing, that there are infinite ways to financial freedom, and I should be able to come up with some hyper-conscious exploit. In this area of life, I didn't want to acknowledge my limitations and denied myself empathy. Of course, I should aim to find the most holistic path. However, looking for a holistic solution out of fear of imperfection paradoxically leads to neglecting the most fundamental elements of the puzzle: acceptance and self-love. Without those, I can't evaluate my needs and ambitions with radical honesty. And without it, I am not transcending anything, I am deluding myself.
