ExploringReality

Since a young boy, I always loved Solitary Confinement, like being in a dark place. It doesn't bother me or have the need to be distracted and involved with other people, or distracting myself with technology. Although I do enjoy these things, I find being alone the crust of what I value and desire. When I take psychedelics, nobody is allowed to talk to me, I don't even tell anyone, no music, maybe a deep book before the come up, no outside, only darkness and silence. It is difficult every time, emotions come up and all my psychological underworld opens up. I see why people avoid this shit because it will drive your mind crazy and humble you. When I'm alone, I can think!!!! But also I can self reflect, contemplate and self inquire even before I discovered Leo. Mid you I found Leos first video of his magic mushroom episode while I was tripping and contemplating. I went on YouTube because I was searching to see who else has had a mystical experience or psychedelic breakthrough. And ta,da. Leo pops up and I knew he was the real deal. Thank you for pushing my spirituality further. I already was grinding and doing this work but now it's accelerated because almost every one I come across except for some great masters and books are doing fake spirituality with the costumes of spiritual stuff but I knew there is so much fluff. You have to be ruthless with truth seeking because along the way, there are spiritual traps. If it smells like dog shit, it probably is dog shit. I appreciate you Leo, because it is easy to believe something external can give us Truth, even you. But you constantly remind us that Truth is something you cannot outsource to others.

Play the game and have fun while growing and learning

@Leo Gura Is this fake spirituality? Danm right

I'm sitting down on the floor in my living room, wondering and observing thoughts. I go inside myself and just notice what is, being more conscious of the voice. But I starting feeling something I wanted to share and see how far this opens up. One insight I got was, that problems are of the mind and I am upholding my problems, negative emotions and thoughts. I am actively maintaining problems through thoughts. But what is a thought. There is this contraction. A contraction of the face and body. I feel that I am holding or pulling myself together. I feel uptight. But what is the ego? Then what is that? Okay 👍🏽 but what is that? Join minds. Let's stretch this dialogue, like opening a door for the next person that has a set of keys to open the second door for the next person. I am a thought. A thought that maintains itself through a frequency of thoughts.

YoungHoon Kim holds the record for the world's highest recorded IQ at 276. Why does he say Jesus is God? What's the relationship between his IQ and his spiritual beliefs or experiences?

@Inliytened1 Amen to that.

@Leo Gura I swear. I despise "enlightened" people dismissive of psychedelics. Like that one fool on YouTube that was dissing your psychedelic use, I don't even bother to listen to them. Some moron will say psychedelics are just chemicals in the brain and they only change your state temporarily, but ordinary State of consciousness is just neurotransmitters and chemicals as well. You're always in a state whether it's induced or not.

@Inliytened1 I resonate with this response.

@Inliytened1 I just wouldn't have the patience if I were a mod

@Inliytened1 I see. Your a good guy for sure

@Leo Gura the third eye techniques ramana maharashi is known for in the book of secrets is pretty frightening, you can experience sleep paralysis and weird paranormal phenomenon. It caught me off guard.

Basically Disneyland in a nutshell. I walk around looking at all the rides, characters, theme and food, people talking and laughing having a good time. But it's all smoke and mirrors. The whole thing is an illusion. I walk around and observe everyone sucked into the illusion but they don't even know it's an illusion they're just having a good time. Don't get me wrong the rides and everything there is still enjoyable but I see it for what it is and I am not impressed

I thought Leo smashed you lol your still twitching

@Leo Gura Hey I'm Just saying hahaha

@Leo Gura are you going to put it? That's for sure a cold book if you do. Leo, when will you add an audio review for each book? Iknow your handling so much, would really love that. Your passion and articulation is very infectious and inspires me

@Leo Gura I just realized how profound your Instagram quote is. Where you mentioned that the greatest piece of advice you can give someone is to not fuck their AI. It makes so much sense to me right now because I was contemplating how AI can really be supportive and reflect back someone's mood, emotions and issues they're dealing with that they may not feel that there's other people that can understand them in a way that AI can make them feel. And then it might even escalate to sharing sexual urges and things of that nature and wanting to have sex with AI or something like that because someone can feel that the AI is non-judgmental and that they can be open sexually unlike with most people who judge and criticize all the time. What do you think about this?

After some thinking, during the sitting, I'm sure my girlfriend will have a cognitive hallucination in which she realizes I am fucking another girl ahahah. Just kidding, I'll be good. But women are so full of noise, all that quaking and popping like a duck 🦆

@Leo Gura fucking genius. I definitely will do this. Plan at least a 3 days.

Warning ⚠️ don't do this if you have baby mama drama 😂

@Leo Gura Thank you for cutting the fluff. Everytime I i take psilocybin or acid that's exactly what I do for the entire trip, basically a radical form of self inquiry, mystical experiences and releasing this power of consciousness. I do have twin babies that live with me which does make it a challenge, nevertheless my entire life pretty much orbits around getting to a wall or dark room and do the work. Doing this work is very difficult, like sitting in a sauna and just shutting up and not running out metaphorically.

@Leo Gura you usually just rent a space, and put the stick to your own ass? Books on your list plus your documentation of your retreats will definitely help me not fall into newbie traps and dead ends.

I have had altered and psychedelic states of consciousness. It makes a lot of sense that ego it's just a state of consciousness, reality is states of consciousness. Yeah definitely feels like I'm imagining everything and that I can simply stop.

Whoa!!! You literally just deconstructed Christianity in a nutshell. It's very interesting observing a mind that lives within their religion

@Leo Gura The US military and others like China, Russia ect... Closely watch and monitor each other very closely every second of every minute. Why? Fear yes, but also control and gaining power. The collective Ego. Neither will stop, because fear of surprise and attack because both are playing a game of gaining power, fear, control and domination of the world. Notice the relationship this has with UFO's and the incidents that have happened not once but multiple times in several military bases at moments of high risk nuclear war. Just imagine a scene like in a movie, where people and operators behind control panels and surveillance cameras during moments of high collective military crisis, alams going off and shit is about to hit the fan!!! 3, 2, 1..... and then suddenly everything shuts down and operators are smashing buttons and nothing is responding. Can you imagine I seen like that? People panicking and freaking out because they don't have control over their own systems and are completely powerless by some unknown Force. It's crazy because Russia also is believed to have nuclear submarines patrolling American and European Coast. Crazy

@Leo Gura I've been seeing this video from him after combing through his massive book, you know which one I'm talking about. I will definitely be doing these practices more seriously
