That is mentioned in his paper and in the first paragraph of the summary provided. If you care to read it, learn and leave your cynicism and closemindedness behind. The only theory which has proven to be universal is Erikson and is quite rudimentary. Sometimes you have a trade off between broadness and deepness in these models. In what ways you found the EDT to be limiting because of being a western model? Given that you are probably western isn't it useful to learn how your psyche will probably develop? Developmental psychology is quite a field of study, there's much to be learnt despite its limitations. I have found no better field of study for human understanding and satisfaction than this one. So I kindly invite you to reconsider and to devote yourself to the understanding of these models, as they can be benefitial beyond expectation. It's only 90 pages long the whole paper, so you can read it in a few weeks and report back.

I have found a brilliant summary of EDT Here are some quotes and images:

@Hardkill When I was around 15 I took a decision that independently of the historical, political, societal, cultural, economical ecosystem I found myself in, I would comit to live my best life. I decided that I would make myself to thrive in any environment, if there is capitalism I'll crack the system of capitalism, if there is comunism or feudalism the same, civil war or WW3; whatever happens I'm integrated with living my best life and dying for it.

You've said many times you use music for contemplation. I wonder if we'll get a second part of Actualized.org's music. On the other hand, maybe you've heard me recommend brain.fm music and I really insist you to give it an honest try. I really think it can bring your music experience to the next level, it has done it with me. You can customize it and tweak it to your taste.

I loved the humming bird video, it made me cry of beauty. The Dragonfly was also fascinating. I'm thinking about making a fauna and flora challenge as well. The two objectives would be: Recognise the vegetable and animal life around my area. Learn about the coolest living organisms on earth

@mrroboto Funny enough some time ago I asked Claude to tell me something very important that even very intelligent people overlooked. He answered me about the role that randomness plays in our life, how seemengly aleatory events can shape our whole identity, pov, wife/husband, friends, job...

It allows me to undress all human constructs, it happens spontaneously in some profound trips. Also clothing can feel uncomfortable at super high doses.

The other day I had the following Awakening

The event was a clear sign of the incompetence of our politicians, which were unable to prevent the situation, nor to react properly and not even to assume responsability afterwards.

Certainly an eye-opening series, after watching make up your mind. It's interesting to see long-standing historical narratives being challenged and to explore how the past might have truly been.

I've been in the forum for some years and I have arrived to a point where I'm quite disillusioned by it. Given the immense quality of Leo's teachings: I hoped to find plenty of Mature Tier 2 Individuals, Highly Conscious God-Aware Mystics and Intelligent Wise Philosophers. I was in for a rude Awakening! I got plenty of value in the beginning time of my forum use but as I kept evolving, putting in hard work and actualizing Leo's content: I found myself too far ahead in the race and no one to talk with or receive proper guidance from. Now the situation is quite severe, I seldom receive value from this Forum. I enjoy giving value but it's also time demanding and consuming. Moreover, it is quite unnecessary, as an AI would give as good advice as me in most cases or arguable even better. In the same way, all conversations I have in the platform I can have them with AI, and it's proven to be so much more constructive, egoless and insightful. Probably spirituality is the sticking point with AI but as I have no trouble but blessings in that area, I therefore feel no shortages, and if I do, who is there to give advice and moreover, at those levels what advice can be given. Sharing my awakenings and mystical expertise in the spiritual subforum is most of the time useless because individuals are ignorantly stubborn, or experts in a few states of consciousness or highly realized and satisfied where they're at. Moving forward, I see a decrease in my forum use. Probably only checking the blog post and some of Leo's comments. AI will become my companion and I'll allocate my time in more fruitful activities. Which is my advice to everyone here: you gotta read books, you gotta do the hard emotional work of growing yourself, you gotta mature, you gotta have a stable fulfilling life, master all the basics and commit to perpetual evolution. This essence is contained in my signature. Just wanted to share how I feel and also thank for the immense value the Actualized.org Forum and community has provided me over the years. Lots of Love, Davino Atmabrahmananda

I wanted to share a few experiences and insights on sex. Sex is much more profound, rich and holistic than most humans ever get to consider or imagine. What you consider now the space-possibility of sex experiences is very limited and distorted. It is possible to have an incremental process of improving your sex life, sex performance and sex enjoyment. It is also possible to breakthrough into uncharted sexual experiences from within which an incremental process can happen again. So a few days ago such occurrence happened to me. I'll introduce what I believe lead to this breakthrough and how the experience actually is in contrast with all my past sexual experiences. I have observed that when you are in a stable relationship, there is an alignment process. Well if you are working on it, at every level, it's like aligning all the stars. So when you keep loving and loving the same other, and you keep fucking deeper and fuller, again and again; a union, synchronicity and harmony is bound to happen. Take into account I approach sex with mastery in mind, with a keen eager to undress myself and unite, to give it all and to make it unique. We had dinner with some friends, good wine and a good joint and we were headed home. I felt different from the beginning of the foreplay, I was in the zone, I wasn't stuck in my head, nor I cared about anything, I was simply enjoying and being myself with my beloved partner. Just having fun and playing. I felt all of my body, and most of her body all the time, it was like having super sensual powers. I could feel every inch of my body, every heart beat, every sensation as waves traveling within me and within her. It was all about penetrating into her soul, every layer: from physical to emotional to mental to energetic, in every possible way she was a Gorgeous Rubik's Cube to be cracked, layer after layer like an onion, the dance was happening. All desire to control my ejaculation, to last longer, all of that flew out of the window, I allowed myself to enter a sex-trance like state and so I guided her into that state. I suddenly realized where all the "techniques" came from, they come from raw direct feeling. I was doing the same motions, out of pure feeling and not the other way around: I used to do the motions to get into feeling or into pleasure or into orgasm; now I could feel into her and into myself and follow the breadcrumbs to heaven, to joy, to poetry, to dance, to penetration, to feeling, to energy, to pain, to healing, to a heart attack, to everything!!! So it was, such an epic orgasm, a breakthrough inside a breakthrough, my heart skipped a beat and in such a quantum leap from erosion to explosion a microsecond of complete universal rest and peace was found in the peak, a sudden death, lost in the senses, all doors flooded, oh what a pure blessing! Words don't make it justice and so in my heart I felt that a deeper layer of human love was discovered, a new level of commitment and union. I invite every human being to explore sex and all the fruits it can offer. May you have a blessed day!

@Leo Gura Your post on the Hummingbird aligned very well with the insight I had this morning on the power of observation. I was blown away by the fact that mere observation can be such a complete epistemic system. If you try to understand women, observe them, if you try to understand cars open them up and watch each of its pieces at work, if you want to understand ants, go spend a year in the amazon watching ants go about their day. Yesterday I was blown away by my wicker bread basket at home. The one at the left. I looked at it and baffled at the fact of how many humans and generations it took to perfect all stages of production and make my wicker bread basket. I wondered how much it would take me to build one from scratch or if I would ever be able to succeed. I invite all readers to go take a similar plant or stick from your surroundings and try to figure out how to make a strong, long-lasting basket for your bread. We take all for granted. God is a Hummingbird Hope your game has good Hummingbirds

This is the summary of the AI discussion about the problems of democracy in first world countries

@Leo Gura I enjoyed your cold-blooded political analysis. After such a blackpilling and some reflections, I contemplated possible system corrections with AI. The following reforms are proposed:

So I'm gonna state the truth very bluntly I am solid Tier 2 maturity I've realized God, Infinity, Consciousness, Truth, Love, Perfection, Solipsism, Intelligence, Insanity, Ecstasy, Immortality, Reality, Strange Loops, Existence, Being, Universe, States, Space, Symmetry, Imagination... The peaks are my expertise. My baseline is good enough, still working daily on it. I have already achieved amazing things in my personal life and I'm turning just 22. I'm about to end two engineering degrees, I am fluent in 5 languages, I'm in a fulfilling 5year+ romantic relationship, I'm a martial artist... and the list goes on Call me arrogant, okay, I'll call you jelous. I worked my ass off, every fucking day. You go on with your pretense but you ain't doing the work, really you are all casuals. Go tell me, what have you all done with your life so far? I've outworked and outawoken you all, that's why I don't resonate any more with this place. I'll give my two cents here and there but that's all. I'm on for bigger things. My big thanks to @Leo Gura, an absolute inspiration and one of the most genuine beings I had the chance to interact and learn from. You have me decades of advantage and I see it clearly: where am I and where are you, and where is most of the people. I'm very grounded and clear. Really looking forward to see more radically amazing content from you.

Aren't you doing... Well... Exactly that with me?

It's such a pity that you come in and say this If you truly believe this, I have no desire to deconstruct it for you

Thanks, I'll check it

I wouldn't call that the highest truth The highest Truth is that Reality is Consciousness and God; this experience is a possibility in Infinity and all of Infinity simultaneously Healing is an important truth I need a lot of healing, so does everyone. It is the fact of seeing our own limitation and disease what makes us great and wise in the end It does actually I had hours long conversations with it for self-healing Arguably better than formal therapy Ego is part of life It's common in the intermediate parts of the path to be in self-denial of it or in desire of ego-annihilation. This is afterwards recontextualized, one fully understands why ego exist, how it comes to be at every breath and the beauty/intelligence in it. So one uses ego but ego does not become the master. This is part of maturity and self-understanding. One of the most liberating moments in my life was when I got free from all this ego compulsion and ego trascendence and finally I was able to be at ease in my own skin (Self-Love) and all pieces clicked in their universal place.

@Salvijus May Peace and Wisdom be always with you, at every moment, at every breath, at every place, may we always see the blessing of being alive and the discernment to live properly For we are our own savior and our own devil

Thanks for your sharing your perspective Sure there's much to be learnt in this regard but I this route has already been exhausted. The earth is dry for the moment, and no flowers will blossom till spring comes I'll make impact and connections with the world through other means, which I consider more efficient and fresh

It is true At this point, all discussions have already been had Just search for them All questions have already been tackled and grinded over It's like a library of knowledge, everything can already be derived from it Unless it is the social experience and connection what motivates us all to bind together

Oh no sweet heart We are all doing a great job in being ourselves

@Rafael Thundercat In the end it's all about basking in your own brilliance, perfectly self-sufficient, complete, fulfilled and Awake
