You gotta go LIVE*. Then unlisted or private.

I don’t know how I could lie to myself for that long brother without having you know, a boner so, blue balls aren’t a happy place to be hehe. I’m not saying that you are lying to yourself perse but, if it happened to me, I know that is not gonna fly too long hehe. This is like tease you with some food when you’re starving to death, but hey man is your life so, enjoy it and do your best.?? Leo’s next Sunday video: A Rant Against the No Fap Community - Part 1 of 69, loljk. I think you have to consider what is going on on the other side aside of your view. I was in a similar if not same place some time ago but like Leo sayed in the past it could be a lack of experience with connecting with women or/and men (for a long time I was feeling sexually frustrated and/or unsatisfied at times so I can later on in my life to discover that I am actually bisexual). Some people seems to be against fapping wich I can agree I find it weird and necessary to do and natural from us humans, but I can see also how porn itself can become like a hardcore crutch addiction, there are multiple ways to tackle that issue. The question would be, how often do you do it? Daily? Once or twice a month? My current view is that there is nothing good or bad about watching porn but what are the intentions, are you doing it because well, you’re horny and that’s it? Ok fine do whatever you gotta do or are you trying to runaway from something that you actually supposed to be doing? Or fear of emptiness? Is it affecting your life overall? How good or bad you can perform on your daily day basis with vs without porn.

Nothing major will change for you, but for other people, it probably will. I don’t know if you ever lost a loved one but, with each action there is probably a reaction and that reaction, it can wake up something on you that is gonna impact the whole world. This is already a subject apart from OP, but taking Michael Jackson as a example, the death of someone many loved, inspired people to take action about it, the act of the death of someone, it can change how we feel from now on how we aproach life. Yes it can, you can encounter a powerful message, picture or event that it can change your life, not just even your life but for the whole society (like a manifestation about the goverment selling our beaches here on Puerto Rico), and world. Again this is something outside OP so we can talk on another thread or message/inbox.

Hey, I make art for a living (my profile picture as a example of my work). I don’t know if you’ve seen Leo’s video about art wich I pretty much agreed that everything is art (God’s pov), art is relative (Personal/Human pov). I think you’re speaking only from your pov and not consider the others pov, what might not seems as art or beautiful to you, it could be for another person. When you go outside, you’ll see art design everywhere: street signs, where to get anywhere, billboards, everything included on you’re phones design, etc. So these signs basically is saving our asses if you wanna put it that way jeje. Now to answer how impactful Art is compared to Engineers & Technology, I think you’re just expressing from your pov once again, in my experience, art and engineers/technology goes hand by hand. Before creating a computer, or any new technological design, what do you need first aside of the idea itself? A sketch! Or some sort of visual design. Now the impact that gallery paintings will have on a person that is gonna vary from the person’s past experiences, cultures, belief system, values, etc. A Picasso’s painting could spark a inspiration for someone for how to perceive the world and within that spark of inspiration, you can impact to millions if not billions of people and within generations so you can seed new ideas about: fashion, music, culture, how people’s feel, politics, life in general, etc. Art it doesn’t have to be only apply to paintings, it can be also Engineers too, musicians, writers, etc. The power to create/destroy. For me Art is the same as Consciousness, God’s creation/destruction, art is everywhere I see, no matter how crude it could be, Life itself is a piece of Art. Now how with God’s power of create, I can also help expand awareness on certain subjects, representing something beyond human, taking a Alex Grey’s work as a example, I can help humanity to grow. ???❤️

I agree. I been thinking if @Leo Gura would be open to do a Λ’s version talk with Rupert, Langan, or even now if with Jordan Peterson (might be too chaotic) since now Curt connected with him but I wouldn’t get so high my expectations.

“This is not therapy” A few seconds/minutes of google search: I think Dr. K can be more honest with himself if he is doing either therapy, coaching, you name it. I have not doubt he is helping alot of people, but lying to yourself that you are not doing therapy, I don’t know if I buy that. Also as someone said in one of his stream he was working with: “I would never open up to on camera the same way to a private session. People change when they put a camera on their face...” something between those lines and I agree, some people do. Sure, this gonna inspire and help other people in need for advice but, I’d be freaking out if thousands or millions of people now know my personal problems on details (and I don’t mind if eventually I have to do it but I can imagine how hard it could be), this is gonna help alot of people but now I need to be prepare for people for weaponize your problems/situations during my healing process, also some people will try to “act cool” or “be nice” when you have a audience looking at you. We do our best really, I can see Leo’s point but also the people’s who are pointing out the problem.

Same

Thanks for your insight as a Mod. I think the Mods can give us a good perspective how they perceive each other when they are trying to work together.??

I love @Nahm , he has helped me alot even on my hardest and darkest times of my life, but I agree with Leo’s point too and also looking at your guys last conversation. If I know I have to tone down on something, I’m open that “I could be wrong”, let me contemplate what the other person is saying, see how other people respond to me, take a break to meditate, etc. Everything what @Leo Gura said started to click with me since this thread and I felt a bad that she might not received the possibly help that she needed: 2nd this, I felt at times he was sort of subtly promoting himself alot. I have no problem with people promote themselves, I just observe how often one does it and their possibly intentions. If you read this @Nahm, I love you bro, we can still talk anytime you feel like, I just suspected something was going on, I’m open that I could still be wrong about it. ??❤️?

I don’t know if this channel has been shared or discussed on the forum but here: ??

@Roy The problem is not to masturbate perse in my view and experience but rather some people over do it and they affect their life overall.

If I saw this video a few years back where I was having suicidal thoughts almost 24/7, I would shut this video down or wouldn’t process what she was really saying. Today I can said I can appreciate better what she meant and I practice it now but I’m not sure if those exercises are enough to love yourself deeply, unconditionally, it helps for sure but to a degree. When you are not in the position to even allow love from anywhere because your head is very hardwired to think like a victim, I think some more critical action is required. This was crucial for me. I like what she said on the video, maybe explain more possible methods in order to allow this Self-Love to penetrate you/yourself.❤️????

Depends, mostly is up to them to decide what to do, if we are sharing some % of a sale let’s said a brand, sure we need to keep in touch in order to keep it balance our endings. If I’m making a portrait of you and that’s it,sure I have no control at all over what you do afterwards, is your piece now. Yes, we talk about it. I wouldn’t accept it to being with. That never happened to me yet but we would have some serious talk, depending what I see I’m selling,sure, the ideal is to take legal action, sign papers let’s said a logo for a company. I have to work better in this area, I can be at times very reliable/trustworthy of people that I just ignore the paperwork, I gotta keep it professional, what I do is a invoice for the work. This is a take I don’t like because for me is like saying “sure,do the artwork so we can use it for our cigarettes or beers” and I don’t support that, is not helping humanity at large and I’m still somewhat responsable for what they do with my art. NFTs of course doesn’t directly affect humans but sure indirecly as it goes to the enviroment, that is my only dilemma. Thanks for letting me know your view.?? Anything you see to disagree I’d be happy to read it or your pov.

Hello everyone, I’m currently on a financial situation because I need money to pay very soon my rent and all of the sudden this person appeared for a commission/project for me to make her some pieces so she can sell it later as NFTs. Personally I don’t feel like supporting at all the community since I’ve seen quite some of researches and some bits of documentaries such as: and I also don’t want to affect the environment more than I should. I feel in a hurry in order to pay my rent if not I guess I’m just gonna “bite the bullet” with the commissions that I currently have so I can pay my rent, is just taking some time on complete them,I been slacking a bit with them to be honest because is a few of commissions so I’m trying to focus at least on 1-2 pieces weekly. I wish there was a “healthy” way to make NFTs. I’m pretty sure I’m answering myself,I was asking to some others possible perspectives. My current profile picture is a painting I did digitally as a example.???? Thanks for read and love you all.❤️

For me, losing hope for humanity is like losing hope with oneself, we are part of humanity so. If you see a way where you can inspire people (maybe with your life purpose), then make it happen brother!?☀️?? This is a cool project happening right now, I'm sure there are many other projects but this is one I'm aware of: I know there is a Big Picture situation,epistomologically and metaphysically speaking but hey, little by little.?

Video of his process/Interview: I thought he was using some laser cut to make such details but hell no,amazing!

I empathize with Curt that he is doing his best for come up with good questions. I feel it could take weeks,months or even years to integrate and understand at least one subject of your videos. Also studying multiple people at the same time.

Hey everyone this is my first ever post,I'm glad to be here. I'm having a big hard situation right now... I been doing actualized.org work progress and personal development since I was 18 years old(now I'm 23). Since then I was doing good with my life,been doing my life purpose,having up and downs but always being aware with my higher self and intuition...I had this flight on October through November(1 month) last year,I went to Nashville,TN for 3 weeks and 1 week with the idea to "live in New York". Somehow my intuition told me to go back to Puerto Rico wich is where I live now and before the flight but I came back diferently,the trip was hard and by myself...Before the trip I blocked all the people I had sex with to just "forget them" but karma did his thing. I knew since I buyed that ticket for go and live in the USA wasn't the best idea... Fastfoward to now I had to said sorry to everyone including the people I blocked.I felt weird and not grounded(and I been meditating for years)also been dealing with a porn/masturbation recovery. The thing is that now I'm dealing with a trauma and I belive is a PTSD symptom. I can't even go out anymore because I feel the outside world is my enemy(the way a victim thinks). I been aware most of my live until now that I feel the right opposite,like something happened on that trip... Since I cameback from the trip I tried by myself: LSD(December),DMT(on group but wasnt big,it made my symptoms worst),thats why I did later Magic Mushroom(for "grounding") on January and finally MDMA on February. I did it alone but in a urban place... I knew I had to fix this but can't do it alone,it's been getting worst and worst the symptoms like a spiral that now I came back to live with a family member wich I know they are not so "aware of themself" and my parents are separated and my mom live outside Puerto Rico and my dad doesn't have a car so we can met and he is having his trouble with money... I thought suicide but not yet...I visited a psychologist and then took pills for depression from a psychiatrist (wich I felt to let go after a week,felt worst). The last option for me is do an Ayahuasca ceremony but not sure if it gonna work on me,I have small faith,very small,need to wait a week or so for the day to come...I even done nootropics but still,not helping to fix the main problem... Someone have suggestion or know some similar experience? Thankyou for everyone who could read my story. Blessings.

@zambize thanks brother. I apreciate and will do it. @Nahm Sounds like a good idea,I apreciate alot the help.

@zambize Thanks alot I apreciate brother,I din't expected even a response so I'm glad this works. Yea I try those things but seems very difficult (and I'm aware what is emotionally hard is key) but is like I had this mental block trauma thing wish doesnt allow me. I go outside and I already start panicking/fight and flight response, is like a negative spiral thing,I try be positive but my mind doesn't allow me much. I did some journaling,but seems not taking anywhere yet,definitely helps for organize. @Serotoninluv Gracias/Thanks,daily I do educate myself from the medicine so when I do it I sort of prepare what would happen still I have to let myself go and expectations. Thanks both of you guys for respond,means alot.

Is blocking a person a necessity?
