@Carl-Richard Good for you . Since there is a lot of benefits to the theory and working through it and develop your functions in order . it's fun. I am starting to realise that functions themselves have level of maturity so , each functions have some classical activities and actions associated with it and it helps work through them untill you optimally express your type

Hello Fellow INTPs, I’d love to hear your thoughts on how you’ve experienced the evolution of your cognitive functions and type expression over time. How have you noticed your own growth and maturity compared to other INTPs who may seem less developed or more dysfunctional in how they express their cognitive functions? Looking forward to your insights!

I understand that many people customize Leo's teachings to suit their own needs, but I have a genuine question: how do you approach and integrate his teachings? I recognize that integration is part of the yellow stage, tier 2 thinking, so I’m curious about your methods. It seems that Leo’s ideas and concepts stem from his awareness and evolution through different stages of ego development. Would it be fair to say that a productive way to engage with his work is to study the nine stages of ego development and reflect on how to integrate each one? As you do this, you might find connections to ideas in his other videos. His concepts often feel like they’re woven together in a complex web, with the nine stages serving as a central framework that helps make sense of everything, ultimately guiding us toward meta-rationality and greater self-awareness.

What is or in other words isness , when you are not pointing at it with your defecient perception or linguistic pointers .

Hello, everyone. I would appreciate your suggestions on how to handle toxic Stage Red behaviors, such as catcalling, sexual harassment, and violence among teens and young men. How can we approach this issue, especially since the Blue stage often normalizes such behaviors or lacks awareness of their dangers? I’m looking for ways to address this without directly confronting those exhibiting these behaviors. Additionally, what strategies can we implement to foster a culture of respect and assertiveness among peers and others who may not be considered their peers ?

Hey Leo, I’ve been following your work, and in your last episode, you talked about narrowing your niche and guiding us towards Spiral Dynamics Tier 2, construct awareness, and metarationality. It sounds like an amazing journey! Your episode on post-modernism was fantastic. I have a couple of questions. Since everything seems to hinge on the Spiral Dynamics stages and the 9 Stages of Ego Development, do you think it’s more effective to use the principles you discuss to transcend or integrate these stages, rather than diving into each episode separately? For example, should I assess where I am in both Spiral Dynamics and the ego development stages, and then apply relevant principles from your episodes to integrate and transcend these stages holistically? Is this the approach others are taking? Also, could insights from episodes like the Psychology of Being Wrong and life traps help identify what’s blocking progress in our current stage? And then, once we see results, use other episodes and psychological principles to move forward with you guys toward other stages ? - I’m coming from a purple culture with some blue influences and a few orange institutions, but no green. Thanks!

@Leo Gura Yes . Since you are already leading people somewhere into metarationality , and Tier 2 thinking and all the episodes you have that are practical or have understanding feature into them helps the audience to reach to tier 2 , then I thought I should focus on Development psychology videos since that is what you are trying to teach people to move towards . I wasted a bit time studying Practical episodes independently, when I should have understood that they should help me move to the second stage with , in SD and 9 Stages model .

@Leo Gura

@Leo Gura How about contemplating this problem , and try to brainstorm questions and answers and then rewire the problem . Like ask myself , what are the ways in which I am failing to love myself ? - And then contemplating the answer and grounding myself in practical example . Or questions , how do I behave when I don't love myself ? - what psychological concepts I need to understand to make self-love easy ? - How the ego that is deficient in love behaves and frames reality and may be after that work on each problem that results in this deficiencies like bad assumption , defaulting authority to others , having a weak sense of self , being unhappy -- which of course you have supplied the audience with video teachings about .

@Leo Gura Thank you

@Leo GuraThis might sound crazy, but I'm really lost when it comes to creating concepts like the frame of how messed up my life is. Can you help me brainstorm some questions? The thing is, I struggle with loving myself. I don’t love myself, and I think it goes way back to when I was a kid. I was constantly criticized for everything, to the point where my internal monologue is just messed up. It feels like there’s nothing I can do—whether it's moving, walking, whatever—without feeling guilty or getting investigated .

@Leo Gura You've mentioned before that everything can be seen from a certain perspective, like there's always a context for how you look at something. I really dig your ideas, even when they aren't directly related to the main topic. For example, you've talked about setting the player's frame in dating situations, and that kind of stuff sticks with me. Here's what I'm wondering: when it comes to having a strong or weak frame, would you say that some of your practical advice—like in your videos on gaslighting, double standards, and What is neuroticism and other practical videoss —is all about building a strong frame? Do you think these approaches work better than the usual steps people follow to develop a strong frame that others can pick up on? Also, because the concept of frame is kind of nebulous and fuzzy, you mentioned in the gaslighting episode how some people just have a strong sense of reality, and I totally agree. You, for example, have this commanding presence that grabs attention. How can that be accomplished? Is frame also about how others see you physically before you even speak? We all know how creepy guys can have a frame, but it’s a useless and dangerous one—whatever they say makes women anxious, but if the same thing is said by an attractive guy, it doesn’t come off as creepy at all.

@Leo Gura Or they detained him because so much of israeli telegrams are celeberating death of palestinians , and they are tryin to contain the damage and change Israel's perception .

@Leo Gura Fair enough . thank you .

@Leo Gura Hey, thanks for your input. Just to clarify: I was asking why psychopaths and narcissists seem to have a strong grip on their reality. Is it because they operate from a strong self-interest and aren’t swayed by others' opinions? I’m wondering if building aspects of the 'physical pillar'—like muscles and coordination—can impact someone's sense of reality, making them feel more grounded because someone who is physically weak , and doesn't care about their body much , would not see how a strong sense of reality requires objective pillars like physical pillar . Appreciate your thoughts!"

@Leo Gura I have enjoyed your two episodes the psychology of being wrong and gaslighting . Your concepts in their essence is a form of respecting people's soverignity . I want to ask you something - Two questions if you wish to answer . I would appreciate if you answer them both -- You mentiond an intresting topic in gaslighting , about how some people have a weak sense of reality and you give some good answers about how to have a strong sense of reality in the form of being aware of self-deception , developing holistic thinking , deriving answers , and more . Now two questions please : 1. How come people like psychopaths , and narcissits have a strong sense of reality ? - Is it the fact they operate by a default self-Interest and their own mental point origin while others have frame defined by what people may think of them and that affect their emotional system and their body language. 2. Is it possible our physical pillar which constitute muslces , back , coordination , sexual energy , martial arts ,hygiene , grooming , style and those aspects of physical pillar can either increase yourr sense of reality or decrease it if they don't exist . Like , there are cases , where clueless men , believe there issue is the social skills ,or what they said in a relationship ,when in fact it's the fact that they don't care abou their physical pillar which affects their perception of reality and how women or others view them . they demand respect , when they have not demonstrated value . They want to be appealed to as an authrity but their physical pillar is weak

I would appreciate if you have his Episodes as pdf for the entire scripts to follow through and highlight .

@Agrande How did you get this pdf , it seems very neat and organized . Could you teach us how ?

Hey Leo, Hope you’re doing great! I’ve been diving into your videos this month and noticed something interesting about the concept of “frame.” It seems like every time I watch, I get a clearer picture of how it influences your progress. When I compare your older videos to the newer ones, it's clear how your frame has evolved. You speak more slowly and thoughtfully now, and your body language and tone are different. It’s got me wondering how we can apply this concept to our own lives and ideas. You’ve mentioned how nice guys and those who come off as creepy are perceived in a specific way. Your advice seems to implicitly touch on this frame, whether it’s in your video on needy vs. non-needy perceptions or why women are drawn to “bad boys.” It seems like the frame from which we approach these issues really matters. Have you talked about this before? Is “frame” a part of self-actualization? I’d love to hear your thoughts!

@Leo Gura

@Basman In this context, “frame” refers to the underlying perspective or mindset through which we view and interact with the world. It’s about how our beliefs, attitudes, and self-presentation shape our experiences and the way others perceive us. For example, in dating or social interactions, someone’s frame can influence how they’re seen as confident or insecure.

@Leo Gura Before your conscious leadership video would come out , would you mind sharing some questions for me to contemplate before the videos comes . in this thread , you spoke about how health limits your leadership , I would love to know more about this if you can share . it feels like a good question to contemplate , what limits my leadership ? -.

@Leo Gura I would really want to know more about this . How health limits your leadership . In , what why , is it energy level , . when you say you have attracted more girls ot sleep with , meaning health would be perceived in displays .

This quote by Jalaluddin Rumi carries a profound meaning, suggesting that discord and incitement often originate from religious figures or those who pretend to be pious, rather than from places traditionally thought to be sources of corruption or temptation, such as a jar of wine, which symbolizes worldly pleasures. Rumi highlights that the real danger may lie in the hypocrisy and deceit that can come from some religious leaders or those who outwardly display piety, using religion or religious appearances as a means to achieve personal or political goals, leading to divisions and turmoil in society. This quote encourages critical thinking and not judging matters solely by their outward appearance. Fitna General Definition: Fitna refers to disorder, chaos, or civil strife. It is a term used in Islamic and Middle Eastern contexts to describe social upheaval, conflict, or sedition that disrupts societal harmony and order. Contemporary Usage: Today, "fitna" can be used more broadly to describe any kind of conflict or division, especially those that lead to social or political instability. It may also refer to situations or influences that lead individuals away from moral or ethical behavior, acting as a test of character or belief.

Hello, I am creating a phase called "Discover Your Worldview" and have included some activities such as: Giving myself silence and space to become conscious of my true desires, emotions, and beliefs. Engaging in self-reflection using Leo's questions from "The Power of Questions" episode and other related episodes. Working on defining my life purpose. My mission is to develop my Frame externally and internally, and also to self-actualize and experience self-transcendence. I believe that prioritizing the development of my Frame will help me address deficiency realm needs, making it easier to satisfy them. I have two questions: What is a worldview? As English is my third language, I want to ensure I understand this concept correctly. Is a worldview how I perceive the world? Should I create subcategories to answer questions that include my biases, likes, and dislikes? What if I'm unsure of my worldview? How can I balance this conceptual internal investigation with extroverted goals? How do I align my internal reflection and understanding of my worldview with practical goals that help me survive, get a job, and achieve visible outcomes?
