If you believe you are, then you are. If you believe you’re not, then you’re not. So, strategically, how do we get you to detach from the belief that you are unlovable and to cling to the belief that you are? Also, you’re as lovable as you believe you are. Don’t look to external reality to weigh in on this issue. If you turn this into an inner-game issue, nothing external can affect how lovable you feel you are.

The infinity idea never really resonated with me much. I just call it nothingness or everything. I also call it the Universe when I want to give it a metaphorical persona. Time is a concept that we use to theorize about change. But all change is an illusion because the Now never changes.

You should start working on Leo’s Life Purpose Course without delay. That will take up your evenings for a while. And you’ll develop a great insight into your deepest passion.

Get her involved in a project that she will enjoy where she has to be responsible and do project management. It’s almost like she needs a job.

This is an interesting insight I had.

Is this some kind of Ego-Backlash? Why would there be one if this is our passion? By the way folks -- I finally constructed my Life Purpose: Zone of Genius: Deep-diving issues; analyzing, assessing, and contextualizing them; and reporting insights in writing and perhaps through other media. Impact Statement: Helping people (including myself) strategically increase levels of self-acceptance and acceptance of reality through optimizing the use of the Mind through work in Personal Development, Philosophy, and Spirituality. My Life Purpose is: To deep-dive issues; to analyze, assess, and contextualize them; and to report insights through writing and perhaps through other media; helping people (including myself) strategically increase levels of self-acceptance and acceptance of reality through optimizing the use of the Mind through work in Personal Development, Philosophy, and Spirituality. Ideal Medium: Writing, Audio. Domain of Mastery: Self-acceptance, acceptance of reality. Ya'll gotta buy and do Leo's Life Purpose Course! It's very well done. That's what I used.

I recognize the same people here that I've preferred to associate with my whole life. People that are willing to be themselves no matter what -- and to pay the price for that authenticity by being hated and facing adversity in life. Videos on Point to Watch:

Nope. All you can do is get you more in tune with reality. There are no easy answers. Here's the thing, I'll say this. If there is an Astrology -- it's gonna come authentically out of you. And then we're just playing a game of semantics because it's a given that intuition is real, and a valuable source of insight. Video to Watch:

Thank you. Can you watch two more videos for me? Then give me your final argument and I will respond to that.

Satie is amazing. When I was coming down from LSD I listened to him and could make out the musical structures he was painting with that piano! That's called musical story-telling. His range and use of chords is amazing. He is like a painter that became a piano player. And he plays with so much heart and he takes his time. You can tell that he basically just played to himself in an empty room and that was his composition medium. They call this furniture music -- or piano music haha. Imagine sitting in and old wooden room on a wooden chair listening to Satie play the piano, maybe with a few other people in attendance. That's performance art at its finest. And then you have the great acoustics of the piano resonating with the room. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Erik_Satie

These all sound like platitudes taken verbatim from Leo's videos. Let's deep-dive these issues to get at what is really understood here. You need to be able to define all of these platitudes yourself -- to give them a rich, solid, pragmatic, useful meaning. Your concepts should be juicy and overflowing with practical and everyday use. The only way you get that is by contemplating this stuff for yourself. Enlightenment is not an ideology that you can memorize in a couple-few platitudes that we can stick on a page and distribute one-size-fits-all to the masses. This theory needs to be CREATED and OWNED by YOU. You need to build your own Enlightenment Theory brick by brick. You need to blow a rich meaning into these concepts for yourself. Stop looking to cling to beliefs generated by a Mind that is not your own. That's just your starting point, never your end-point. Take what Leo has given you -- and look at it like an influence but not the result of the concepts that YOU will create for yourself. That's what authenticity is. You need to be using the shit out of the Socratic Method. Take nothing for granted in this work. I've shown you how to apply the Socratic Method in bold below. I create my own reality. What is reality? What does it mean to create your own reality? Truth is unachiavable. What is truth? Why is truth achievable? What is achieved? Rabbit hole goes infinitely deep. What the hell are you talking about here? This makes no sense. Once I understand that I start to live again. I come back to reality. Ditto. This is the only thing what’s real. What is the only thing that's real? What does it mean to be real? No sense in wondering in the infinite rabbit hole. What does it mean to wonder in the infinite rabbit hole? What is the infinite rabbit hole? What does it mean to wonder? No need to become god as it is already the case. What is god? What are you? Why do you think that you are god? Why are you certain that you know that you already are god? There is a need to become a human again. I create my own reality... Who are you? What is reality? What does it mean that you create your own reality? Is your own reality specific to you? Why do you think you were a human before? If you're not a human, then what are you? What does it mean to be a human? I am always alone. I am never alone. What the hell are you talking about here? This makes no sense.

I think the most important thing for you right now would be to start an hour a day daily meditation habit. Do that for a year and see how that changes you. You will be amazed. How do I know? Because I did it myself.

Start doing Life Purpose Work. That's where Personal Development and Enlightenment have a baby. Get Leo's Life Purpose Course.

"I mean the kind of liberals who lost the value for family, respect for the elderly people, are agitating and promoting homosexuality ( while pretending that they are just defending their rights ) and etc. I think you understand what I mean." @egolessI don't see how or why these three traits need to be unified in one persona, namely the "liberal". Can't the "conservative" possess all three of these traits too? What does it mean to "agitate and promote homosexuality"? This sounds like some heavy stuff! So -- Liberals hate family, are nasty to old people, and pretend that they support homosexuals when in fact they do not. Where the hell did you pick this up! You got some issues that you need to clean out of your psyche regarding this. I know a lot of other people are choosing not to be as honest as I am choosing to be here. They aren't helping you by stroking your ego. Liberals are people too! Haha. Is there a liberal family member that you're gonna be seeing over Christmas that you're dreading? Did the crazy liberal aunt cross-swords with you last year?

I am unbelievably well! And you?

What does the Law of Attraction mean to you? Gimme a paragraph.

You gotta stop looking for something to cling to. The answer you're looking for is that happiness is not to be found in clinging. Just like truth is not to be found in meaning.

This is a good answer. It made me think over the course of a few days now. Chemistry is one of the most empirical of the sciences, so I applaud you for picking the hardest example in your favor for me to try and refute. I will not refute it, but I will attempt to deconstruct it a bit. What is Chemistry? What is a law of Chemistry? What is being associated with these "laws"? Sure, in a specific circumstance we can formulate certain rules of thumb that pertain to certain chemical changes that can be observed with the eye. But do those changes constitute laws directly, or is it only after the Mind gets involved that we see an extrapolation into laws. Laws are thoughts. Thoughts are not chemical changes. Chemical changes are not even analyzable into constituent parts, as Nature is not discrete in that way -- it's actually a mental metaphor being placed on top of reality that says this. I would be alive if I were not thinking, and thus I would be alive if laws didn't exist. I don't need thoughts to exist.

You gotta be able to transcend the Rationalist Paradigm. I'm not operating from the Rationalist Paradigm. Watch this video.

What does being a sage mean to you? Gimme a paragraph.

I've had some interesting dreams myself lately. When I wake up sometimes I'll take a few minutes and try to recollect a particularly strong dream. And sometimes I can recall bits of it. But a lot of it is usually lost too. I've also noticed that dreams usually relate to whatever I'm dealing with in reality. So, thematically, the dream might track something that you've been dealing with -- or maybe certain characters will be there because you've been thinking about them, perhaps subconsciously.

Theism means belief in a personal god or gods. I believed in a God that was working with me like a team member. More accurately, I was a worker-bee of God. God was actually my intuition that the Mind was making seem like a separate entity. So, my intuition is still there, but the stories are not. So, in a sense, I'm still religious, I just believe that God is not separate from myself now. So, my religion evolved to mysticism. God was never separate from me -- that was a false belief.

I distinctly recall moving from the Green Stage to the Yellow Stage. I was at the Green Stage almost all my life. When I hit the Yellow Stage, I became more about Personal Responsibility, and I became much more Libertarian in my political views. Today, I am pretty a-political. I don't identify with anything. When you no longer cling to beliefs, political ideologies become much less of an interesting thing. There's so much Ego in politics it's insane. So, when I became Yellow, in many ways I became more conservative in my views -- but I was still liberal, if that makes sense. I had totally dropped the victim mentality by Stage Yellow. My view is that Stage Yellow is the first of the Enlightened Stages. Turquoise is like the sustainable liberal. And Coral is . . . . I can't even speculate about what Coral is like.

1. How you earn your living is not properly tied to your authentic strengths and values. 2. You are stuck in the comfort-mentality. 3. You don’t yet know about all the Self-Help theory that you could be using. 4. You don’t really know much about the Authentic-Self and what it is strong in and what it values. 5. You don’t really have a long-term juicy vision for your life that is calculated to make you happier and happier as time goes on. If you haven’t started working on it — start working on Leo’s Life Purpose Course without delay. You’ll hit all of these bullet-points in that course.
