@Seed Although it is really important for kids to get in touch with consciousness and awareness, I don't think we have the manpower for a whole subforum. You could make a post specifically for parents and people that interact with kids to get some answers you want.

@Leo Gura Here are some ideas: You keep it and limit the number of likes someone can do per day and maybe make them invisible to see who upvoted what. You have a hidden upvote-system and every post that has more than X amount of likes gets pinned/highlighted. You disable the liking system altogether.

@Leo Gura Come to Europe too, I bet there would be more than 20 people for sure. You could come to Europe and do one big event for everyone, I would be down to travel just for the event but it has to be more than 2 hours .

@Jonson Go plant-based for a month and if not satisfied go back to meat. If you do, eat meat in moderation and stay away from these kinds of meats in the photo (hotdogs, bacon, etc) These are the worse meats in terms of health. Ideally, study nutrition on your free time to get the big picture view and play around with your diet to find the ideal one for you.

After some time of mental masturbation and theory overload, some change occurred. I pumped up my amount of action, found a job and I bust my ass off just for the challenge and to exercise my work-ethic muscle. My biggest sticking point is that I get way too anxious to get results in game when my amount of action in that domain is not sufficient. Taking into account my meditation, strong determination sitting and conscious walks my spiritual practice feels really challenging lately especially in this purification process. Edit: Basically yesterday I didn't open a specific set and the rest went downhill. Still, don't know how I got so depressed yesterday.

@Leo Gura Is cold approaching all night solo without any wings effective? How would you do it? I know you aren't a PUA pro but I would like to hear your perspective.

Tai is a rare occasion that uses low consciousness marketing (materialistic thing like the lambo) to market his above-average consciousness brand that helps people learn about money economics and others and in general encourages people to read books which is great advice.

@Leo Gura Give me a longer answer to what mp22 said. I get that kind of response too often "You are deluded and not me" when I am talking about this kind of stuff with people. What is the best way to investigate If i am wrong and how do I communicate this?

@dustylocks I had watched this video when it was released and I had put some stuff aside in order to sell them but I wasn't getting the technical ebay stuff. Any video recommendations for shipping, how to list items etc? Thanks for the reminder.

@Dan94 How did you manage to choose an ideal medium and the domain of mastery?

Immense amounts of gratitude. The man I am today is because people brought valuable gifts to me one way or the other, the least I could do is give back.

@Serotoninluv Grab a sample of nothingness and give it an IQ test.

@Leo Gura And the funny part is that even if someone tries to debate with them (like Deepak Chopra) he can't win because the whole debate and logical arguments are just a game from the materialistic point of view. That's why there is so much ego involved. This video is so cringy I just cant...

I find it extremely ballsy of Prince Ea to share an enlightenment video like this with almost 2 million subs. Will it pay off or backfire? Also, what do you guys think of the video?

@AMS Radical openmindedness is required when you are against the status quo not when you represent it. Anecdotal evidence like FB posts doesn't count for shit. Science shows us that animal products are not healthy but I guess you have to be extremely biased when you have a carnivore FB group. Animals are not healthy, no amount of mental gymnastics on your part will prove otherwise. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/20820038 Research TLDR: A low-carbohydrate diet based on animal sources was associated with higher all-cause mortality in both men and women, whereas a vegetable-based low-carbohydrate diet was associated with lower all-cause and cardiovascular disease mortality rates.

@Leo Gura How do you spot an enlightened person?

After watching the video on OneNote, starting writing some stuff and contemplating about my life, I realized where I've been doing well and where I am not. I realized how little action I actually take. I am just observing here so don't get lost assuming stuff. Here are some things that "go wrong" with me and need to be fixed asap: Apart from my formal/walk meditation habit which is pretty consistent, I dabble around in everything else. I protect my ego toooooo much, my cool-smart-wise-funny guy image/identity. No morning routine, no productivity (currently unemployed living with parents). "Stuck" on LP course since I don't know what domain of mastery and ideal medium to choose (more like an excuse but whatever makes me sleep at night, right?) Waste too much time on PC and personal development material when I could be taking action. No structure whatsoever in my daily life. No quality peer group to push me as I wish to be pushed. Being into PUA theory for months now and the only action I have taken is going to a bar and chatting up dudes (not awkward just pussied out I guess) Stuck for literally months in this theory filled and no action comfort zone that I went myopic without noticing. No system in place to autocorrect my stupid behavior in the path of growth and self-improvement without going unconscious for months. Not writing this to victimize myself or anything. I've got the mental game in place. I just really need something tangible to grab on to and get out of this rut. The funny thing is I already got the knowledge to get started but a second opinion would be much appreciated

@Leo Gura Is accumulating Personal development theory actually a waste of time though? If it is, I theoretically have wasted the last 4 years but If I didn't I wouldn't be on the self-actualization journey so I am ok with that. My perfectionism wakes up towards action, what job to find? Is it a waste of time? Should I go pimp it solo again? And especially without a quality peer group, i have to be extremely self-reliant. My mind plays tricks on me... My emotional system is not backing me up and the only thing I have left is willpower. @RossE Daily routine is an idea to maximize productivity. The last months I have been running on open schedule and the results are self-evident. @HII Put down some goals (Both long-term and short-term) on my OneNote, now trying to convince myself how to proceed from here.

@Leo Gura Bashing PUA is a long talk. It involves many factors which RSD have gotten right such as social conditioning, male/female psychology and obviously action. I actually think you've got it wrong here. No one is asserting any power over anyone. If you treat it as you would treat any spiritual dogma you are good to go, I don't see any negatives. You need to clarify which is low consciousness dogma and which is not. I either auto filter it or I don't notice it at all. If it becomes an addiction this is another talk but the game by itself can actually grow you especially if you are the average video game nerd like me. Now that I think about it what is the difference between playing the game to be alpha and playing the game to be conscious in front of the girl? Is it all a matter of appearances?

@Leo Gura That's actually worse since AI won't have to be ultra smart. Keep in mind people are literally puppets of their damn phones and computers. Imagine the damn things being even a tiny bit aware of the situation, how much damage could they do?

What do you guys think of decaf coffee?

@Leo Gura Still though, man's got to learn, right?

@Leo Gura I get the no-free-will but still, something makes decisions, be it the body or the mind. If not, this says that our lives are preset and either you are born capable-of-enlightenment and achieve it or better luck next life. In that case, no matter what I do I will win if my destiny is to win and no matter what I will lose if my destiny is to lose. Sounds weird but I guess we can assume we are winners and act accordingly to increase our chances

@Dan Arnautu We dont feed the entire planet yet lol. Grains are used to feed the cows that make the quarter pounders the average American eats every day. @Leo Gura I eat the classic athlete's diet just veganized. I still eat my whole weat pasta and potatoes, it doesnt feel bad and they also have good nutrients (carbs&protein). Gimme some studies or articles about this. Is decaf coffee ok or no coffee whatsoever?

@Leo Gura i became vegan cold turkey, it's no big deal. What's wrong with potatoes?
