High awareness is just a state of mind, whilst what you describe is knowing the truth over the desinformation that the system promotes.

when you are enlightened you have absolute accpetance to everybody, BUT when you are in the path of self actualization you stop resonating with people with lower awareness than you, for example those who like to party at the disco, drink alcohol, an so...

anyone trust in superfoods? I mean He Sho Wu, moringa, reishi...

Yeah but his logical side is being changed by psychedelics ultimately

Jeffy is the most narcissistic ego-driven PUA, he always wants to be the center of attention. For Self development there are better options like Julien, Tyler or max, they're more centered in improvement in general and then sucess with girls is a collateral aspect.

This is what I think about enlightenment, is only a mental illusion. The "Samathi" (Oneness) experienced is another subject-object illusion.

the roll with it is living life as a leaf moved by the wind. The lowest stage of consciousness. So if nature gave us a brain, instead of demonizing it like a creator of problems with self actualization we can tame the mind, isnt this great?

For me, lack of entitlement. By that I mean I feel discomfort when somebody gives me a gift, a kiss, congratulations, I feel I dont deserve it . Also of course fear of succes. I think when you are identified as a mediocre guy when you become successful the mind thinks like that: This new situation is overwhelming, I dont know how to handle, Its not me...

Although Leo doesnt like Tyler, this video helped me A LOT to overcome jealousy and menvy! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4gVX5siXhXM

Why is it so shameful to you? Could you post a pic, or at least which style is?

When your process of self-actualization becomes draining, is because yo want the results so bad that end up frustrated and tired. Enjoy the process, dont get obsessed with the goal. At the same time visualize how would be the best version of yourself, and then focus all your energy to the points you need to improve. Sometimes we want to become better but dont know our weaknesses or what we need to fix.

Negative emotions are the result of the interpretation of a success as bad. Since I learned there's nothing good or bad, its just the ego rationalizing, puting tags... In nature everything is neutral Sometimes I wonder why actually I never cry? Its because I've developed a deep acceptance for everything that happends in my life. Now i know everything bad is something to learn, to proove me. Also look at the universe, everything has its opposite, ying-yang, life-death, dont cling to one in particular, accept them equally and wont be disturbed emotionally.

I'm from Spain and basically the 90% cant understand properly an english self-actualization video, feel so lucky to have found this cahannel and others that saved me from a big depresssion I had.

I've been since kid a hard-case introverted, shy with social phobia. I improved a lot and learned to socialize, but never erase my social phobia at all. I forced myself into social events to fight against my fears, but when I got into self development and Leo's enlightenment episodes my ego find the perfect excuse to avoid uncomfortable situations and my lifestyle became like a enlightenment junkie monk. I work in a job at night without people contact to detach from my ego. I can find bliss being alone, If I want I can find joy in meditation. But I know this is a trap. For some reason we are in this life to overcome our fears, and if we avoid them, they will come back again and again in different situations. This escapism of masturbatory enlightenment has been my rationalisation to stay in the comfort zone. If I'm happy in the now why to approach girls and be rejected? why be married and risk to divorce? why run a business and get broke? I owe it to myself, to stop avoiding the fears of life.

I men I'm happy whenever I practise meditation, but when I come back to my thinking mind I dont like my life, so A-prolong meditations to reach a permanent state of awareness in the now or B- take the wheel of my life and make up for the lost time avoiding people.

IMO the best option in life would be like Osho says lila (play), just playing the game of ife in the matrix while being enlightened, but this would require practise and time first exclusive to awakening process. Then I may be too old to become a social guy and form a family. Or let's say at the end I realize that enlightenment is a HOAX and have spent all my life following a deception.

In my opinion the childhood traumas, body pain and all this stuff are just excuses to have a victim identity that is comfortable. I grew up nwith overprotective parents, then I went to a very strict priest school, where teachers (priests) punished the social behaviour and rewarded being quiet and submissive. So in adult life I'm a complete social retarded without social skills. And people often realizes that. My biggest fear is to look like a creepy forrest gump in front of people who I care the most. Thats why I found an excuse to have fulfillment in meditation instead of developing meaningful healthy relationships.

No matter how weird your thoughts flow in a meditation dont react to them, dont get overwhelmed, ignore them all as if they were no big deal.

I been a baywatch for 7 summers to afford my studies. Its noty physically draining, you feel self-realizated saving someone's life.

I work in an afternoon-night shift, from 19 to 1 midnight. I dont like making plans with somebody after lunch because I'm worried that the job time is close. It's like an anxiety. I'd like to go to the beach, meet some friend, meet girls... but thinking that later I must go to work makes me super anxious. When I worked in the morning I didnt have this problem, I had the rest of the day for me. When I have a plan with somebody, going for a walk, shopping, gym, I cannot enjoy the moment because in my mind there's always the background worry of: job time is aproaching, hurry up better not be late. I'm pending of the clock instead of the now. My social life is poor because of that. I practise meditation but not everyday, should I reinforce the prtactise to avoid these negative thoughts? Which technique is better for my issue?

When you have a regular meditative habit you relate to others from the true self. That means no EGO driven purposes like: validation, "cover contracts", zero neediness, no fake. So you will not fall into the convention/norms of chit-chat, meaningless relationships... you'll be making genuine relations only with the people that you resonate the most at a spiritual level.

I'm actually reading the book "Out of the trap" by Alan watts, and basically he describes the occidental point of viewing life as a victim, ruled by God, like a trap. What he suggest is a paradigm shift of accepting the flow of life, understanding that we are eveything (samathi), that lead to the conclusion there's no trap, the trap is part of me, acceptance... the danger I see in all the hippie woo-woo way of living cutting resistance and practicing acceptance is that we can become lazy. Why work? Why self actualize? What do you think? I've also read rumours that A.watts was a CIA agent, so maybe he was spreading this passive attitude of acceptance non-resistance to the people become more submissive and so easily governable.

The 2014 was a fantastic year for me, I made great relationships, friends, a girlfriend. Also visited nice places , my job was ok, money, every aspect of my lifewas great. Now my life is mediocre, I'm unemployed, no girlfriend. A lot of times I try to RE-live my golden year doing the same I did, I find myself listening music of that year, trying to recover old relations of that year, same habits, watching same movies, recreate my old lifestyle. I think this is bad because now the circumstances are different and we are meant to evolve in the path of life. what should I do to not get tempted to have this melancholic behavior?

I had similar symptoms and found that it was adrenal fatigue. Do you take cofe, tea, or other stimulants? Maybe a break would help you.
