@Leo Gura Thank you so much for all the videos you've created. What you communicate on a weekly basis has helped grow my awareness and change my life little by little. Still ways to go I also appreciate this community of like-minded beings, where we get to share ideas and learn from each other. Sending out positive vibes to all To infinity and beyond!

Yes, you're the container in which existence dwells. Can't contain the container haha You're untouchable!

Don't think too much

Real love is not conceptual at all, it is rooted in Being. As long as you believe your mind, you won't know how to love.

@Mulky This will help put things in better perspective

Perhaps with the help of psychedelics, from what I read on here and also from Leo's vids.

@Ilya I would say companionship with another form is something an enlightened would still appreciate. There would be a measure of (healthy) detachment in a relationship and their love and acceptance towards each other would be unconditional. They would relate from a Being perception (vs deficiency perception). Examples of enlightened couples - Eckhart Tolle and Kim Eng, Adyashanti and Mukti, Rupert Spira and Ellen Emmet, etc.

Most of the times when I wake up in the middle of the night is for no particular reason, and I go right back to sleep with no problems. I also rarely dream. But will take your advice and contemplate on possible reasons why I wake up Though waking up in the middle of the night never bothers me or disrupts my rest in any way. I'll try to find that article/study and post it in this thread.

@Shin I read a study awhile ago that most healthy sleep is when your body wakes up on its own every 3-4 hrs (split sleep), with a brief interval inbetween (when we usually take a drink of water or go to the restroom at night). When I go to bed, I fall asleep right away in complete silence. I usually wake up in the middle of the night (without an alarm or a distraction), and then go right back to sleep part 2. My night sleep is deep, and I always feel refreshed and energetic in the morning, even after most tiresome days. During the day I keep my emotional levels even, so my brain doesn't get over-stimulated - this helps sleep too. I also noticed that when I meditate longer, I usually require less sleep...go figure

@Joseph Maynor It's not how big one's ego is, it's whether it's 'ripe'/'ready' to get released. Ego is a conceptual illusion. Collapse of that illusion is what prompts liberation.

@Joseph Maynor High vibration music is beneficial for consciousness work. Jazz is relaxing and groovy. There is a nice jazz launge in Cocoa Beach called Heidi's Jazz Club I like to go to. Ron Texteira's Trio often play there live. Here's some of their music

Yes, in the above video Leo defines our existential nature as pure transparent empty awareness.

I think Azrael refers to a shelf in the same manner Leo often refers to a coffee table in his videos. Here's one example, watch the first 6 mins:

@Mondsee "When you become fully conscious, you break down the boundary between self and others, and literally what happens is that everything becomes you, everything becomes the self. and there is a complete and utter surrender of you to reality, the larger force of reality, or as someone may call it God, nature, reality, existence You basically surrender to this higher power and you act now compassionately towards everyone and everything, because you literally perceive the entire world as your body. It's a very radical thing. And more than that thing, you recognize that all of existence is basically a giant bowl of love, unconditional love. And what you do, you surrender your ego to such an extent that everything is unconditionally loved by you, especially all the good stuff, but even the evil, even the bad stuff, even stuff that looks ugly or looks vial, or looks immoral. You even start to love that, because you see it as unity. There are no divisions, it's one giant unity. So, surrender to that and approach all of reality with unconditional love" - Leo in his vid on morality part 1.

Lol My new manager is a freakin perfectionist, so I have to keep things in perspective to stay calm and cool

It's very do-able to live a healthy happy life beyond your centennial. Lets share ideas, articles, videos, and stories of those who do/did! Of course, again, nutrition is a big factor. People with highest longevity rate in the world consume wholesome nutrient dense food from the earth, get moderate excercise, and lead overall conscious life-style. Interesting video for a discussion:

@Quantum Mike It's ok , Mike. We can't expect people to agree with us all the time. Take care. This thread is derailed way too far now. I'm going to ask the mods to lock it.

That's not what I'm saying at all. Yeah like Big Pharma is going to allow that happen. To the rest of your come backs - tell all that to a dying cancer patient. I'm a living proof of what I've been doing works, while yours is just mental gymnastics with no direct experience to back it up. A.k.a. arm chair philosophy. Name calling...perhaps projecting Also means debate is over. Peace to you. Stay well. See you around on the forums

But is this alpha male happy in his life? Competition, winning, dominance, control is just his ego f-ing itself. Leo's recent vid 'Successful People Are Not Happy' talks about this in detail.

That's called radical open-mindedness - Stage Yellow. You don't have to conceptualize and have scientific proof for everything. You navigate through the Relative with direct experience, ofter trusting the un-known. Post-rational thinking is also about dropping concepts about what's rational and what's not. So unless you try on your own body what we're talking about here, you have no evidence to back up your claim these things don't work either. Go try them out, come back in a year and we'll talk.

Your butt monkey opinions don't interest me anymore. Peace.

Well, if my having healed my cancer by activating my body's own healing abilities (and without much help from conventional cancer industry) is not enough evidence to you, then so it be. I do recognize benefits of modern conventional medicine where the benefit is due. However, if I'd taken chemo, radiation, Temoxefin, etc, I'd be either walking like a drugged-up zombie or dead by now (like many 'rational' cancer patients are). This is not 'magical' thinking, this is stage Yellow thinking - rising above the body-mind and treating it as a whole, where you don't 'fight' your 'ailment', you work with it lovingly. Cancer is actually a beautiful thing if you look at it from a Yellow stage perspective. Any awakened/enlightened being will tell you that. Peace.

Never heard of him, but will check it out, thanks.

No fantasies, was just asking a yes/no question. Been thinking about going all raw, but it's hard when everyone around you eats meat. Slowly evolving towards no animal protein diet, though. Those are heavy foods to digest and as I get older, I don't want to start supplementing with digestive enzymes either. I home-make fermented cabbage (sauerkrout) for live probiotics and eat plenty raw foods rich in enzymes. Fresh raw juices are awesome too - ginger, carrots, pineapple, beets, celery, apples, etc - pure goodness. What is your daily diet like, besides beans, cabbage, sweet potatoes, and rice?

I don't either. I rather prefer almonds and chlorella If he eats raw only, then no beans, sweet potatoes, and rice for him either Are you a doctor, by chance? You seem to prefer/advocate conventional medicine over alternative one.
