How to be wise

@DemiNingen It’s actually good to inflate your ego first before you destroy it. In fact, it’s essential. It’s what I did before I became enlightened 3 years ago.

@ValiantSalvatore Take ownership for your happiness. If you rely on the perfect external conditions to be happy, you’ll never be happy. I recommend doing the work of Byron Katie, and reading her book ‘Loving What Is’.

@John Paul Oppressing the kids and setting them free aren’t the only options. Educating them about higher consciousness is the most important thing. Of course treating them well is also important. But treating them as fully grown adults might be a step too far.

@Someone here You should cut out the cigarettes. You can’t be happy if you’re not alive.

@Sucuk Ekmek Because he was at Blue.

@james_d Yes. If there’s no proof of something, then it doesn’t exist.

Ram Dass is one of my favourite teachers ever. I learnt a lot from reading his autobiography.

Professor who correctly predicted every presidential election since 1984:

@Leo Gura You’ve demonstrated in your blog videos that you can talk for 2 hours with no notes. NJs will struggle to talk for 15 minutes without some sort of prompt.

I trust Leo with my politics.

@eggopm3 The difference between NJ and NP is that they are ‘direct’ and ‘informative’ respectively. Basically NP can talk all day, while NJ will usually get right to the point and use fewer words. You see this best when you watch NJs vs NPs giving lectures. NJs will always use notes and PowerPoint because they don’t know what to say without them, while NPs can give a two hour lecture with no notes and no preparation.

I actually think Russell Brand is tier 2, (albeit with Green politics) because of his deep involvement with spirituality and personal development, the things that actualized.org is about.

@Leo Gura Russell Brand defends Green against Orange:

What spiral stage is Russell operating from politically?

@Leo Gura Eckhart Tolle approves of Russell’s politics:

But Russell brand has been involved in non-dual work. Surely non-duality is above Green?

@Thought Art Conservatism isn’t necessarily the opposite of liberalism. They are not mutually exclusive.

@asifarahim Iran poses an ideological threat to the other Muslim countries, because they want to convert everyone to Shiism. Salafism was the counter movement to the Islamic Revolution of 1979, when Iran began exporting Shiism to the rest of the Muslim world. They converted tens of millions of Sunnis to Shia Islam.

Then what is stage Turquoise? If you read the Turquoise mega-thread, you’ll see that spirituality and stage Turquoise are synonymous.

@asifarahim Lol. If you go to YouTube, you can quickly see the hate that most Sunnis have for Shiites. The number of atrocities that isis committed against the Shia is simply uncountable. Look at Yemen. Isn’t the reason why the Saudis are fighting the houthis is because the houthis are Shia? Otherwise there’s no other reason for Arabs to be fighting each other. Most Sunnis do not share your sentiment for the Shia.

Attraction is there the moment you see each other. There’s nothing you have to do to get it. If polarity was a requirement for marriage success, he would’ve made it a principle of his book. ‘The Seven Principles For Making Marriage Work’ does not include polarity.

It’s interesting since he has interviewed so many non-dual teachers that he can’t be tier 1. So why is his politics so bad?

@Leo Gura What do you think about Russell Brand’s take on politics.

I’m speaking on someone who’s a master of marriage success.
