You have a great empirical mind, and it should be utilized in the manifested world. From your discussion, you may have karmic accounts that need purification before realizing pure consciousness. Spiritual bypassing will not help. You cannot think your way through pure consciousness.

@JoshB The moment you make a pot out of clay, the unmanifested nature of the clay is gone due to its manifestation. I agree with @Davino that pure awakening is antithetical to your survival (not just your physical body but your idea of you). But, again, the manifestation just appears. It is an illusion. Pure awareness is beyond this manifestation (you coming back as ego trying to integrate life) and unmanifested (your awakened self). Try to renunciate both what's manifested and what is yet unmanifested.

@Spiritual Warfare do you notice contradicting yourself?

Need help developing my coaching skills.

I love the irony, "With love."

@PRai1ND1A Because triality will collapse into nothingness, balancing each other. That's why duality exists and triality doesn't. I don't even know how I wrote this as an answer.

Did anyone create an online course and have some pre-testimonials for the landing page? How do you get these testimonials? I am planning on launching a course and have zero experience with online courses. I would love to get insights and tips from your experience if you have any. Also, do you build courses first or focus on distribution? @Leo Gura Best

In Fear Chapter 2, Leo mentions that you should be terrified of your self with Capital S 'Self' because it is acceptance of everything Terrorism, Poor, Wealthy etc. Yet later, he mentions that any religion that teaches fear of God is corrupt. Since God = Self = Universe, I am a bit confused. I am inclined to think that Fear of God is accurate and that we should fear God. Am I wrong?

What do you mean by this?

@Jehovah increases In theory, yes, the difference is imaginary, but I am not enlightened or have lived in a highly conscious state for a long time. So, I keep coming back to my lower self and to the real world. I feel I should be terrified of God, who is capable of doing magic if he wills, including changing my heart to pursue enlightenment. Maybe he will block my heart, and I will go back to mundane reality and grind.

What is being jealous? Why does anyone get jealous? What is the source of it? Is all jealousy the same? and have the same roots? How can one work on it? How long does it take to eliminate it? What practices should be followed to get rid of jealousy? Jealousy feels weaker but inevitable feelings. Please comment if you have successfully overcome your jealousy with situations and examples.

Is it possible that a mind becomes so liberal that it goes to the end and wants to become conservative? A lot of what's happening in the West seems like this is the case where traditional school systems are back in the game, and so on. What are your thoughts on this in the context of education, politics, and science?

I agree with you on this. But how do you think a highly conscious leader behaves when put in a lower-stage organization (for example, red or blue)? Empathy can get them kicked out, actually. They will have to bring consciousness to the level of organizations in order to act as leaders in that particular context. In a way, it is about adapting your leadership style.

@Consept Well, good leadership depends on which stage of the spiral society or organization is at. The notion that a leader knows what is best for the group is very blue. A green organization will never appreciate such leadership. At Green, good leaders are those who co-create the goal with the group. The angle Power = Leadership only applies to the red/blue stage. Anyone who has followers is a leader; that's common across all levels of the spiral, including Leo.

I agree with @NoSelfSelf. For example, I consider Leo to be a good leader, even though he is self-centered and focuses on his actualization.

So it's the false expectations that lead to hurt? What would God do? Despite understanding non-duality, how can this be practiced in reality to never get jealous?

I have been thinking about this for a while. If society has a pull-up effect, then how come people who migrate from the Middle East and Africa to European countries don't end up integrating into the culture even after many years? One example could be the Gypsies in Europe who migrated from India perhaps 1000 years ago and still, to this date, have not been integrated despite all the efforts from the government. What could be the solution to this problem?

Let's imagine a systems thinker trying to solve this problem. The first challenge is, how do you make sure that only healthy parts of a spiral are exchanged between the two groups (say, between blue and green)? In order to do so, you need a group of people (a think tank from each stage of the spiral) who exhibit only the healthy part of the spiral and discard the limitations of that spiral. But again, on a fundamental level, both blue and green think from a collective perspective. Blue's definition of collective is ethnocentric, and Green's definition of collective is slightly closer to world-centric. How does Green help Blue increase their circle of concern?

No. it's non-dual in the first place.

I recently came across this new smart yoga mat called YogiFi, and it sounds very helpful in correcting the yoga poses, which is critical while doing yoga. But, it makes me wonder if these integrations are really the tech revolution or stupidity. The whole point of yoga is to relax, get away from technology and a busy lifestyle, and step toward a spiritual life. I am wondering what other ways AI can really be used to corrupt a spiritual paths. Do you have some ideas?

There's a difference between Chita and Chidabhasa (the reflected self). The reflected self need freedom from this world. And so, it pursues different spiritual paths. The reflected self, "Chidabhasa," is nothing but Chita. Snake is the appearance. "of what?" you may ask. The rope (Chita). Your Chita is and has always been free.

@Princess Arabia Like Leo said in one of his videos, "You are trying to grasp your hand from your hand" Why? It's right there in front of you.

I am an old soul; I was born in the 90's, and I still believe in this foolishly, blindly, and madly. But, you men and women, what do you think?
