  1. @zazen Sounds like you’re from the red pill community.
  2. I have been suffering from chronic fatigue for a while, and it really started to affect my consciousness work. I always feel too tired to do any work. Can someone give me any tips on how to deal with it?
  3. @vizual Meat and eggs are at the top of the list of healthy foods, even superior to vegetables. For him to publicly proclaim that they are unhealthy, and give false reasons is enough proof of his bias. Whether he is intentionally lying or not is up for debate, but he is lying nonetheless.
  4. @Raptorsin7 Dictating to others is low consciousness.
  5. @vizual Everyone is biased. But there is a difference between having preferences, versus lying to a large audience about something so important just to conform to your society.
  6. Sadhguru is definitely biased. He says that meat and eggs are very unhealthy, and that you should never eat them. But turns out meat and eggs are some of the healthiest foods you can find. The only reason sadguru discouraged meat is because Hindus hate killing animals, so he had to conform to them by lying about their health.
  7. @Leo Gura Will it include the one you mentioned in this blog video: https://www.actualized.org/insights/ego-collapse-awakening
  8. 1.4 for both primary and secondary. Good to know I’m a moral person.
  9. @Mulky Wrong. There is no difference between nice and mean, or happiness and sadness. These are all created by the ego. Life wants to be exactly as it is right now. It includes both being nice and being mean. It’s your ego that prefers niceness, because it helps it survive.
  10. I’ve learnt a lot from deepak chopra. There’s no doubt that he has a lot to offer in health and spirituality. But some of his claims are really hard to believe. For example, when talking about siddhis, he mentioned that he was once in a train station with a yogi, and chopra had to go because his train had just arrived. But the yogi told him to wait, promising him that he won’t miss the train. After chopra and the yogi spoke for about 30 minutes, chopra ran to the train platform, and to his surprise, the train was still there. It was waiting for 30 minutes! The yogi used his powers to keep the train at the station. No matter how trustworthy one can be, it’s really difficult to buy such a story from them. The only question is, why chopra would make this up? And if he lied in this story, how much of what he says is really true?
  11. @Blackhawk I became enlightened after 2 years of self inquiry. So yeah, I’m curious why Leo couldn’t do it in 7 years.
  12. @Leo Gura You’ve been doing spiritual work for 7 years. The real question is, why aren’t you enlightened yet?
  13. @Leo Gura You said previously that ‘understanding’ is a function that goes beyond mind, and that it was a facet of the absolute. Do you still hold that view?
  14. Isn’t ‘finite mind/body’ a product of infinite consciousness?
  15. Meat is one of the healthiest foods you can find. Just accept it.
  16. They are tasty because the manufacturers went to such great lengths, adding in many unhealthy ingredients for the purpose of making them tasty.
  17. I wanted to put up an ad for my freelance business, so I went to yell.com to put it up there. The guy on the phone spoke passionately about the success of my business if I used this website. But to post my ad on the website, I must pay for an entire year, nothing smaller, and there is no cancellation allowed. Of course there was no free trial. After the guy spoke to me for an hour, convincing me that I would succeed, I signed up. It cost $350 per month, for one year. It’s been four months, and I haven’t received a single phone call. Other websites which were free gave me traffic, but this one, nobody called or inquired about my business. And now I have to spend eight months watching them take my money, knowing that I won’t get anything back in return.
  18. @asifarahim It depends on what you mean by ‘emotional mastery’.
  19. Self-inquiry.
  20. This shows the ego’s power of creating reality. You must now uncreate it.
  21. @asifarahim No, I stopped doing Kriya about 4 years ago. I tried it for a few months after Leo’s videos on it.
  22. @Olivia24 I would question whether it’s really true that he killed himself to begin with. The past is an egoic illusion being created NOW. It’s not real. Wake up from the illusion!
  23. @Zen LaCroix There are many. I did The Work of Byron Katie for several years, it worked really well. There is a section on Leo’s booklist for ‘emotional mastery’. The books there will help you.
  24. People kept thinking I was a woman. @BipolarGrowth Beige is a set of values, which is for the body to survive at all costs. The values have nothing to do with nature.
  25. Then so does suffering. The two are tied together.
