Such an interesting interview, Paul lives in the jungle but when I hear him talking sounds like green/yellow. What do you guys think?

@Dauntment sounds like you are quick to make judgements

I left a comment in his last picture on IG, if everyone could like my comment maybe he will notice it. 4 likes already! It will be so amazing Leo and Lex talking. Here is the link. https://www.instagram.com/p/Cte4c8-uAhp/

@SunnyCyn says the woman who created a cult lol Teal Swan is abusing her power as well, of course she will defend him @Jwayne yes that would be very interesting to see more evidence of old guys and kids being "playful", cause from my studies so far I haven't heard about this practice, in my vipassana retreats I couldn't even look people in the eyes, much less touching, sucking tongue?

@Jwayne Yes agree. They think it's just a play of mind, "oh let's see how you interpret reality". It's all fun and games until your child is molested by an old guy with power. Why didn't he "play" with another old guy?! It had to be a powerless child. Enlightenment is not a process of ascension, it's a descend. There is a lot of mind here, intellectualization, not much heart, not much gut. People are so disconnected from their own bodies, lost in the realm of mind, that they can't even read a child's body language, that's where we are at as a society. If the Dalai Lama went through this process of descend maybe he would see that the body he's been ignoring for decades, actually has a need, that sex is normal and sacred, not something ugly to be ashamed and repressed. Matt Kahn talks a lot about that, the body is on the journey, not the consciousness. Now with all this ascension we get to see ugly things like the Dalai Lama asking to have his tongue sucked by a child IN PUBLIC, so you imagine his inner turmoil that he can't even contain himself in front of the cameras. I can't imagine what is not being recorded.

@integral the child's reaction shouldn't even be in question. It's an old man asking a child to have his tongue sucked. Dalai Lama is a normal mortal, and apparently he is perverted lol, which just makes him human like all of us. Putting him on a pedestal is dangerous, like someone who is in love and cannot see the flaws of the other person. I'm not trying to prove my point here, if you allow me to say something about your POV I would say that it lacks compassion towards the child. There are levels of enlightenment, it doesn't seem like he is very high up on the spiral. I'm not emotional about it, things are just simple sometimes, specially when it comes to child molestation, maybe because I'm a woman and I'm compassionate. I love children and am around them a lot, I could easily read his body language, maybe it's the intuitive side of women because we do need to read deeper into a child's behavior in order to care for them.

@Mormegil thank god someone has common sense. I can't even watch it anymore, it disgusts me a lot, because I see the body language of the child, he is trying to back off, his body language says he doesn't want, and the Dalai lama is pulling him. Those people defending him are all followers, no one thinks for themselves, they have probably prayed for the Dalai lama or somehow idolize him to the point of not really being able to see the actuality. When the lenses are blurred the image will be distorted. It's like when the amazon was burning due to Bolsonaro's government and the smoke went all the way to Sao Paulo, and my mom was in denial because she loves Bolsonaro. She said he would never do something like that, and even if he did, forest fires are good for the forest. Imagine the smoke traveling 2000 miles down south due to extended affected area. It's easier to be in denial, it's easier to say it was playful. Until you have a child and your child is molested, then things are waaay different. That's why we live many lives, some people need to actually be in the place of that child to develop compassion. I was surprised by the comments, when Leo is always reinforcing the importance of thinking for ourselves, and how gurus are sometimes full of shit.

@Danioover9000 dark humour or pure darkness due to repressed sexuality? I've been naive, but as I integrate the darkness in me I can see it in people.

@integral It would be playful is there was no restriction towards sex and physical contact, if they hugged, kissed, licked and sucked each other constantly. Even to say hi the buddhists bow to avoid physical contact. Notice how the spine of the boy is curved, showing that his body is rejecting the "playful act". Would you put your child in this "playful" situation?

I think it's disgusting and child abuse. Imagine the life of this child, he wasn't only abused but the abuse was filmed. Trauma 10x I don't care if it's tradition, if that boy is my child I would kill the Dalai lama, the pope or whatever bs they call themselves. Masks are falling off, we are in the aquarian age, time to leave the piscean crow, rebel and think for yourself, like Terence McKenna said, no gurus, no masters, follow the plants. Thankfully Leo's content taught us very well that we are our own salvation, we don't need a guru to get something that is already within us. Think for yourself and question authority. Buddhism is a religion, we have seen over and over all the rape and abuse towards children because of repression of sex, it's no surprise that things like this happen, it disgust me and makes me feel more thirsty for independent and original thinking. Everything is coming to light, the Dalai lama asking a child to suck his tongue. What a world

@Danioover9000 I find him to be very authentic and egoless. He doesn't have a strong need to defend himself or his opinions. He only did ayahuasca once, I don't think ayahuasca played a big role in his development. What I do think helped was being in contact with nature, when we connect with nature we are obligated to connect deeply with our bodies. That's tantra, connection with the inner wisdom of the body. As a society, because of religion and other dogmas/ideologies, we are a bit and if not a lot lol disconnected from our bodies and the intelligence from within, so much so that we go after books, masters, gurus to look for answers, when all the answers are within. This connection with the body he seems to have in abundance. I haven't studied the 9 stages of ego development. Thank you for the recommendation, maybe it will bring me more insights

@Pudgey I don't drink ayahuasca to heal anything, I drink it to tap into unconditional love so I can open my heart and love people like you, who are in deep suffering and have the need to hurt other people. PS: Ayahuasca has never been ruthless with me like you described, on the contrary, I find it to be a very loving plant.

@Pudgey Uhhhh the lord of ayahuasca has spoken, please everyone be silent. He had taketh more ayahuasca than everyone who has ever existed on earth, he had reached the deepest state of enlightenment EVER POSSIBLE and he now spends his whole time making people feel smaller at a forum called Actualized.org. It's a labor of love, he found god realization and now has the NEED to tell people that they are not gods. Im from Brazil honey bunny, grew up in the jungle, my aunt was a shaman and I've sat with the tea countless time, but different than you I don't have a big ego nor do I have the need to show anyone here I'm special. Peace out and chill, this is not a competition if you went deep as you say, by now you should now that I'm also you. I have no fears, but as I read your words and pay close attention to your vocabulary, those are things very present for you.

@max duewel yess!! Every time I throw up I feel like I am in between worlds. There is a reality that "needs" whatever it is that I'm purging, and they ask for it, it's an ugly reality, whenever I purge I start having those really crazy visions, of a red realm, with cartoonish vulgar stuff. Stanislav Grof has a whole book with images talking about this red "reality". Many times I also feel like I am my grandma and I'm processing stuff for her (she is a very difficult person), ancestral trauma I believe. There isn't one time that I purge that I don't have a vision of why I'm throwing up or "what" is coming out of me. Not to mention my skin the next day, it makes me younger, basically a youth fountain lol Leo judges ayahuasca a lot but I feel like it could be very beneficial for his health, because ayahuasca heals the DNA, the specie, not only one person, ir goes deeper. Once I extracted a tooth and was thinking if I should drink the brew or no, I was concerned because I got stitches, but I ended up going, I was scared that the wound would open and the stitches would break. In the end of the ceremony, I went outside for a walk and the whole line of the stitches came out of my mouth, it fell off miraculously, and my gum was intact. I feel like in the body level, ayahuasca is the most efficient, that is why people go to the jungle to heal their illness.

@Socrates I would think that he should try ayahuasca at least once to see how it is, like original style deep in the jungle with indigenous people, and only THEN he could disregard the work of the shaman, the purge and all that comes with a proper ceremony. He is the ones who always says we should investigate everything.. It's really a shame to reduce it to a pill and think that it's the same. Maybe he is just scared of throwing up. I like the end of the book Cosmic Serpent, where Jeremy Narby gives a talk to the indigenous people explaining what he had discovered about the science of ayahuasca and one of the indigenous raises his hand in the back of the room and asks "what took you so long?" It's so impressive the amount of wisdom that the jungle/ indigenous people carry.

@Leo Gura we are all in a toxic relationship with you Leo, you said we would meet in person but then you ghosted us. And still, here we are lol

@Leo Gura this Forum saved my life so many times throughout the years!! Just saw that I've created my account in 2017, in other words 7 years listening to Leo and participating in the community, so much happened in my life because of that, I did the Life Purpose course and found out I wanted to record videos about personal development and psychedelics, but when I finished the course I was a little confused because Leo said to be careful not to mistake his life purpose with our own, so I let it marinate. It took me a while to actually get things out of the paper (mind), I remember at that time when I did the LP course I had bought a professional camera and light equipment to start recording, those were not been used for three years and I decided to sell. Then in 2020, I started recording videos with my phone and that is how I still do, because what is important is what I am saying and the people I'm helping not the quality of the video. I beat resistance daily, I always think this video is so silly why am I going to post (those are the videos with the most feedback). So if you are insure of things in your life my answer is, take the first step. Reid Hoffman said — “If you are not embarrassed by the first version of your product, you've launched too late.” I developed a thick skin lol at that time when I finished the LP course even tho I had all the equipment I lacked the confidence, which just came with experience, fail again and fail better, I finally stopped playing small and put myself out there and let me tell you, what a riiiide! It's been such a blissful journey, I could not create this vision if it wasn't for Leo, and his harsh approach lol it really shook me off. I receive so many messages of people that follow my content being grateful for the insights. It's so beautiful and I could not imagine living such a fulfilling life. Leo helped me to build my vision, I am beyond grateful. I recently started interviewing English speakers (my channel is for my public back in Brazil) and would like to share with you all. I remember watching the spiral dynamics video and being in complete awe, and thinking wow people in Brazil would love to know about this, and I recently recorded a series on Spiral Dynamics for my channel, it's really a dream coming true. I am learning while also teaching. So excited for what is to come! Thank you for this beautiful community, Justin for being my trip sitter and friend when I explored 5MeO DMT. Thank you Seronotinlove guy for the words of wisdom (not sure if he is still active), for Jose (also not sure if he is still active, he brought so much humor to my journey. Thank you for my best friend Isis who I also met here in the forum (she is also brazilian). Thank you Erik for sending me a message and start the whole idea for the this video @flowboy, we went so deep, such a beautiful convo. Thank you for all the people I met here throughout the years. Love you all!!

@Leo Gura Looking forward to it! Will you do and in person event too?

@BlessedLion yes we are warm people I live in California now, but I'm from Sao Paulo.

@How to be wise hahahaa I'm laughing so hard!! It's true, I still dream of an in person event where I will see Leo all we can do is wait..

@Leo Gura when is the course coming out?? I need to prepare! LP course was life changing.

@Recursoinominado Yasss!! Me too Pleasure to meet you

I've started a devotion practice 45 days ago where I do 22min of silent meditation, praying, mantra, ho'oponopono, tarot cards, in a very ritualistic way, I follow a lot of what shamanism does and asked for guidance from the animals who protect me, my ancestors and spirit guides. In those last weeks I did ayahuasca twice, I feel it working on me on the visceral level, taking care of a lot of my basics that I've denied and forgotten because I don't want to look at, in other words my darkness This practice has changed my whole life, my connection to god and the divine is so deep and sharp, I'm amazed, I have a feeling of being guided, the divine is in everything I do, so I'm not making any mistakes, everything is divinely orchestrated. But I feel like I'm receiving too much insights and downloads with this new portal that was open, I feel like the meditation is making me more active instead of bring me peace. I'm constantly thinking about creating new things, new videos (I have psychedelic integration coach and have a YT channel where I talk about psychedelics) but this is making me ungrounded, I'm overwhelmed with all the information, I just want to be a human lol and dont want to see (so openly) the mechanism of reality working. I also started journaling which opened up a channel, I feel like I'm channeling when I write, like I'm just observing this creature create constantly, but in the level of the body I'm burned out and just want to relax. I might be working too much, I wonder if this is an excess of stage orange in me, if so how to integrate it in a more healthy way? Another comment about the practice is that I found out the altar to be like a technology that connects me to the astral realm and to god. A tunnel of energy that I can tune in anytime I sit in front of it in silence. Sorry I wrote too much, I think the main question is how to stop this constantly creativity and live a more harmonious life? Constructive feedbacks would be highly appreciated. Thank you!

@LSD-Rumi let's do it!
