Depends on your state of consciousness. If you are in a human state of consciousness there is a feeling of separation between you and me. If you are in transhuman states of consciousness there may be a feeling of oneness through out all of existence. You feel interconnected with all things and beings as much as you do with your own body. When interacting with other people is like your little foot toe is moving and as if you can't controle it like your heart beat, but it's still your self as you can feel it so. You see how the universal waves of energy and consciousness navigate through all your sensory experiences as well as your body and other people and then close the strange loop again into your own experience. Nevertheless you feel it or not or are conscious of it or not, ultimately you only have your experience, that's all what your life is, your experience and you can't escape that, never. If you are human then there are other humans, if you are existence being a human, then your own nature is all encompasing and holds all others. I am a figment and a construction of your own mind.

May Marco rest in peace and may the ones who loved him find solace. From the One we have come and to the One we must return.

Holy Shit!

Yeah, you start tripping and next time you notice you are around the second kilo of 5meo consumed

How can one seed make a tree that makes thousands of seeds?

@UnbornTao It all depends on where you're at. In this regard, Mastering the core teachings of the Buddha by Daniel Ingram, makes many great points on teachers, it really opened my mind. It explains the issue with a cone like structure. Some teachers are good for newbies, some for intermediate, others for advanced. Some teachers are advanced but can't connect with the concerns of the newbies or intermediates, and the intermediate teachers may not have the tools to teach the more advanced stuff. An advanced master that is able to teach to the whole cone of seekers is extremely rare. Were you are inside the cone also influences your judgment regarding this whole process. Many teachers that I considered great have fallen out of grace because I have outawoken them, they were instrumental at that point of my path so while they are authentic, they are not helpful anymore. Some titans still hold obviously, till they don't anymore, this is the nature of the path. Hopefully this little model from the book (I recommend to read the full chapter) may give you clarity into the topic of teachers and teaching, in many contexts as well as for enlightenment work.

Consciousness does not depend on anything and not even in itself as that would create the first duality. Consciousness is intelligence and therefore it organizes itself in intelligent energetic structures, to give some examples holons, self-references, strange loops and fractals — but is not limited to them. Consciousness is also infinitely trascendental and infinitely immanent. This may clear some doubts. Hold frameworks lightly, the map is not the territory and it's always very contingent on the nature of the particular dream you find yourself in. Contradictions and paradoxes are essential in the path and constitute the essence of Strange Loops. Such meta structures exhibite an exquite, elegant and almost perfect essence where polarities reunite and fragment, a cosmis dance you may say. Contraction and expansion is essential to the functionings of consciousness and Mind, you may say consciousness is like a chewing gum and different techniques allow you to probe inside infinity. Like the different ways of cutting a watermelon. Yes, you could put it that way. Practically speaking Reality is a set of limits and interdefinitions of polar opposites, meaning that Unity divides itself or limits itself or imagines itself into fragments in it's creative unfolding. Without changing the fact of its ever present oneness or solispsism, just the interplay of unity and division. Regarding self-reference: it does not exist in pure unity, but all division is in essence self-reference if you think about it, again this connects nicely with dichotomies and interdefinitions. No it cannot be. It can divide itself and therefore not be in unity but it cannot lose its Oneness or existential beingness. The One becomes many but does not lose its oneness. Dreams can be incredibly self-locking in a tessellation manner but Consciousness always holds, experience always holds and so does Infinity and God. To awaken beyond intelligence into the nature of Infinity will answer all your questions in a way I cannot satisfy. Go to the Goose that lays the Golden Eggs. I enjoyed tackling such a complex question although reduce your jargon for the future. Simplicity and straightforwardness is a great virtue for the mind.

Why wouldn't you call that a dream? As per my definition that is the dream of pure potentiality, or the dream that gives birth to all dreams, but why would it scape being a dream? Oh, that's it! I still have to awaken to see the mechanics but that is very plausible. Thanks this has been huge.

@integral There is an infinite fractal of Infinities. Infinities inside of Infinities, Absolutes inside Absolutes, dreams within dreams, God within God. You are lost inside it now and forever, an infinite strange loop, that leaves you speechless and full of tears, nothing can be hold on, no explanation satisfies your soul because there is no point to make, it's pointless and everywhere pointfull. And you get sucked into its perfection deeper and deeper till all is lost and the waves of your own nature bring you hera and there and again to this dream, a dream within a dream, infinities within infinities for Infinity. You clean your tears and get back to prepare your work for tomorrow and that's it

But when you get outside the dream, what is there is just another dream, isn't it so? Reality cannot scape its imaginary nature. Have you awoken to God beyond consciousness? I'm very intrigued by such possibility. @Leo Gura I've been wrestling with this for years now and I cannot find a higher synthesis. Maybe you could give me some insights. 1. I know experience is absolute and total, everything is always mediated through it and it can't be otherwise. 2. I know that my experience right now is not all there is to Existence or Reality. What ends up happening is when I take the first Truth I deconstruct the second. I am imagining all that, and I just keep grounding myself deeper into direct experience till all of that is just a distant dream long once forgotten. When I take the second Truth I go for wild new discoveries and I explore the recesses of my own mind and consciousness. Totally new states spawn into existence that are fresh and virgin. However when I put first Truth and second Truth together I find a gap in my understanding. How can my experience be Absolute and yet not be Infinite now? New Awakenings, New ways of Communication. You know I'm interested in all of that and I would love to see a Spirituality video from you soon. There are videos that may not be for the present audience but are to be left for the legacy of humanity, as milestones of consciousness. As it has been done in the past with ancient revelatory texts, now you also hold the responsability to make content for humans in the distant future. I find that such lens may be useful to release your most advanced content.

It reminds me of the story of relativism. In ancient greek the Sophist were among the firsts to have the insight of Relativity. Then they used such insight and their rethoric abilities to justify selfish actions.

One of the biggest problems of psychedelics is that they are too good

Yeah! Enjoy man In fact, I have found theater to be very profound. I'm friends with an actor and he's inviting me to his plays and I have started getting such a taste for teather. The play of life and the different archetypes at stage, you see yourself reflected in many ways and it allows for an extroverted introspection that I find fascinating.

Going to the theater is also amazing for shadow work. Try it out

He has been addressing it for years but never directly. His video about being wrong is clearly a cleansing of his own shadow work and the next video is gonna be the punch line. The first one the intro, the second one the cleansing, I'm expecting a juicy one now. Probably shadow work is one of the videos that has been cooking for longer and hasn't been recorded yet.

Bliss is for the spiritual hedonist There are blissful states and non blissful states, that's the nature of Infinity What did those sages mean when talking about Ananda is probably Existential Love. I would translate Bliss to Amrita or Rasa, I think it's a more accurate description; from my knowledge of the scriptures and my current experience. I would take such lense when interpreting the vedic texts. Language is a tricky subject and sanskrit has many nuances to express spiritual experiences that aren't translatables to other languages. Furthermore what those terms encapsulate are different for every individual. This distinctions are crucial if we want to get clarity on the topic. Love on the other hands seem to be existence itself, a Love for everything that is, the infinite oneness & unity throughout eternity, it is ever present and therefore unattainable as it is beyond gain or loss, it is everpresently loving all that is because it is itself. It loves bliss so much as pain. It is unbiased and without preferences for one part over the other, it's perfect love. In this regard bliss for me is just a transcendental emotion. I also like this quote regarding God-Consciousness and happiness:

This play list is top tier in Shadow work I know one day Leo will make the shadow work video. The prophecy will be fulfilled

This is the whole point of the post! Thanks for making it explicit

It has come a time where I must face this truth: Spirituality makes me unproductive. I need to make things work out in my life and I am in a phase where that's what I must do and what reality demands of me, yet all I truly want is God-Realization, Mysticism and Philosophy. That has been my eternal struggle in my life, again and again I want to pursue Truth and transhuman consciousness but my regular human life doesn't allow me to. And I get into these cycles of extreme productivity and extreme transcendentalism and I'm never able to actually make peace with any of these and once for all live in a mature way; so I end up not doing any as I would like to. Because I just don't really enjoy the whole human survival game, it's not for me, I want the most profound peaks of consciousness and that's what I have loved doing since I was a child, that's what makes me thrive, what makes me wanna live and what wakes me up every morning. But that's unrealistic and I know it, reality reminds me again and again, and it crushes my soul again and again, having to do shit I hate to survive, I feel alienated and still don't see a way to bridge and unite. I strongly desire integration. I want to be a mature human being with a strong work ethic that is realistic and executes what needs to be done. Because my human happiness depends on that. The point is both options make me unhappy but one is the pain that grows me and the other is the pain of my own immaturity. In fact, If I'm truly honest with myself I know that I should forget spirituality for some good years, because I'm way too advanced in it, and focus on bulding a solid personal life, but does that fulfill me in the same way? hell no. I just find myself year after year forced to build structure for some hypothetical day where I can finally live the life I want, but meanwhile my soul is raped and this intern schism inside me continues... This shit is really killing me... I see no way out It's not that my life is falling apart, it's that I honestly struggle with the human condition despite doing fairly good in life. I know I just have to swallow the pill but I don't know why I can't. I really don't know why I can't integrate myself and wise up, yet it's all I want; peace in myself.

Oh man, thank you, that shit really arrived to my heart. I wanna make something amazing out of my life, I wanna live my best life and I love my life. I just have to pay the cost for it and I'm being a bitch about it. I'll toughen up and excuses and limitations will be overcomed little by little. I know where my genius is, I'm just figuring out how to live out of it. Thank you @enchanted I would give you a hug if you were in front of me. Hoping you a great day ★

I get also that but it's only a state change. It doesn't stick because everyday actions are not aligned with myself. Bite the bullet again and again without needless drama.

It does for me also but I want to be proactive instead of reality forcing me to do things, which I find it to be a very immature behaviour.

As she was moving from ward to ward of a hospital, she remarked: "this also is a temple with God's images. It is God who manifests in the shape of disease as well. In every one of these temples the gods and goddesses are giving darshan. The sense of want, of emptiness and one's true being are in exactly the same place - in fact, they are That and That alone. What is this sense of want and what is "true being"? God and nothing but God. For the simple reason that there is one single seed (singularity), which is the tree as well as the seeds as well as all its various processes of transformation - truly the One Alone. You attempt to appease want with want; hence want does not disappear, nor does the sense of want. When man awakens to the acute Consciousness of this sense of want, only then does spiritual inquiry become genuine. You must bear in mind that only when the sense of want becomes the sense of the want of Self-knowledge, does the real Quest begin. Whether you call it the One, the Two, God or the Infinite, whatever anyone may say, all is well. ~ MA Anandamayi.

At peace. Death is peace. I would struggle a bit in the moment of intensity pre-death-breakthrough but the tight "I" is forced to dissolve so that would be it.

ahahahhahah, that caught me so unprepared be careful about raping God, you may end up fucking yourself in the ass for infinity! That's the ultimate mind fuck
