How to be wise

If you mean others, then yes. If you mean yourself, then wrong. ‘I am’ is not a thought. In fact, your existence is the only truth. The Buddhist notion of ‘no self’ is very deceptive. Your individual self, as separate from reality is certainly false. But the feeling of your existence is most certainly not false. ‘The Self’, as Ramana called it, is supreme truth.

@Nate0068 Correct. The room you are in is all of existence. Everything else is a thought, including others. All of reality is happening for you only.

@Farnaby Yes people are on varied levels of consciousness.

@ucan99 “Mistakes were made, (but not by me).” It’s on Leo’s booklist.

I can object to no.1 and 3. If you don’t practice mathematics, you won’t be good at it no matter how smart you were born. Similarly if you don’t practice basketball, you won’t be good at it even if you were the tallest man on Earth.

@QandC I’m sure you will figure it out in time.

@Shanmugam Many Gurus are very good at appearing to be a faultless saint who knows everything and is an incarnation of God himself. Very easy to be seduced by them. Most are genuinely conscious, but some are quite egoistic and take advantage of this.

@Gary Legge Unfortunately Leo has had some health problems this year. Hence he’s taking more breaks. https://www.actualized.org/insights/my-health-situation

@AlphaAbundance I agree that people can naturally be better at certain skills, but only practice will reveal it. I doubt someone can be talented without practice.

@Ya know Although I’m not familiar with Christianity, this is something I learned from ‘Conversations with God’ by Neale Donald Walsch. And certainly I believe it is true. That is how paranormal phenomena happens. The person strongly believes they can do it, and after some time it actually happens. It is real.

@Shanmugam Back when I was starting my spiritual practice, this place kept me motivated to carry on my practice. I would say 80% entertainment and 20% learning.

@goldpower123 Leo has a whole section on his booklist for the paranormal.

@egoeimai Typical monkey mind. Mindfulness meditation should help.

@nahtanoj A team of Yellow teachers can certainly start a high consciousness school. Since the parents will likely be unconscious, you can just pretend that you’re a normal school, whilst teaching the students high consciousness, and raising their spiral level. Some parents will realise what’s happening, and they will pull their children out. Others will be oblivious to what’s happening, and you can successfully convert their children to higher spiral levels. By the time they realise what happened, it’s too late because you can’t undo spiral change! You will have changed that child’s life forever.

@Value Talent comes through practice. If someone is talented, it simply means they practiced at a young age. Nobody is born talented.

@Lucyy “When the student is ready, the teacher will appear.” Buddha The fact that your teacher (guidance) hasn’t appeared yet means that you’re not ready. You can’t fool God!

@Imortalinfinity Maybe you need to suffer a bit. The time I grew the most was when I was suffering the most. Plus, if you are suffering, it means that the suffering is good for you, otherwise you wouldn’t be suffering. This is a deep insight. When your suffering no longer serves you, it will disappear. Always remember that.

Very sad video:

That’s not very accurate. There certainly is a correlation between enlightenment and morality, but it’s not a direct one. Enlightenment will improve your morality unless there are obstacles like strong cultural inclinations. Enlightenment helped people like Mother Teresa and Peace Pilgrim to do some very kind acts.

Nonsense. He said that in 2015! That means we have 5-10 years left. Still can’t see a sign of yellow anywhere.

@Yali There are different types of enlightenment. Some of them do not affect your emotional state, meaning that you still hate the same things before and after enlightenment. So if you hated Jews before enlightenment, then you will still hate them after enlightenment.

You need to come down from your absolute bubble. We are speaking in the relative plane here. There are awakened people (to various levels) and non-awakened people.

@Yali Not very different to the Buddhist monks who were very nationalistic.

@Yog He sights ‘The Enlightenment’ as an example. When 10% of Europeans moved to stage Orange, the entire culture started to become dominated by Orange even though 90% were still at Blue.

I was wondering if people knew about the healthiness of doner kebab. Although I’ve heard that they’re bad for you, I’ve done research on how they are made. They only get meat, mix it with some natural flavourings and spices (also soy) and finally fry it with vegetable oil. It doesn’t seem too bad to me. What do you guys think? Any experience with this?
