next gen will be softer and softer, more compassionate, more nice more loving etc etc BUT does it mean more conscious? not necessarily, not really, kids today addicted to entertainment, materialism, technology much more than ever before. materialism do not go away once you are not hungry, it stays, it might not be all about money but still its about some material values regarding self-image. this is big obstacle for humanity. oh we need messiah.

Osho 2.0 That photos in article made me laugh and u know, Jedi can turn into dart veider doesn't mean dart veider has no powers, quite likely he does people want to use consciousness to have some benefits in life, and that's ok in general coz well more consciousness is itself assume more benefit, massaro's just a guy who tries to teach how to use consciousness to have some dreams/goals/desires/needs to come true staff. the question is to what extent you are going to abuse your powers? because if you go to far you might become sucked into dark side sadhguru and tolle on the other hand advocate sort of abstaining, they would say - just be present and be joyful from that only. buddha preferred middle way. so does Leo, i think what Leo really trying to do is to direct people into middle way.

Zen devilry: (sounds better when said with Stewy's (family guy) voice) Mom: Hey go wash dishes Me: I don't exist ... or Mom: Hey go wash dishes Me: Dishes do not exist. ... or Mom: Hey go wash dishes Me: You don't exist (this one is dangerous to say for your own non-existence sake) .. or Mom: Hey go wash dishes Me: There is no object-subject relationships, hence there are neither me to wash dishes nor dishes to be washed, there is only infinite consciousness expressing itself in the form of dish-washing ... or Mom: Hey go wash dishes Me: Dishes will wash themselves, they are GOD. ... or Mom: Hey go wash dishes Me: I'm high-conscious individual, I operate on high vibrational frequencies. I don't wash dishes, my low-vibrational mother. From now on, you add: 'your high-vibrational grace', 'your infinite wisdom', ' your absolute power', 'all-loving and all-forgiving', 'unseen', 'unborn', 'father of dragons', 'breaker of chains', 'your beautiful light', whenever you dare to speak to me, mortal woman. ... Mom: I gave you birth, I have ungrateful son! Me: actually...I gave birth to myself

You said you r almost vegetarian. What's ur source of protein?

Given that we dunno how deep is rabit hole, it might be possible for you to go and live in someone else’s body during trance. Imagine some witch is looking through your eyes right now!

Idk bout him but Superman’s story is clearly built as an allegory of enlightenment

what do u guys think?

you will cry without suffering

you are very convinced in non-duality and all what u discovered about fundamental nature of reality, but do you still have any doubts about what you think and experienced and saw with enlightenment, insights and trips? do u consider that its all might be something different, and that 5-10 years later you will realise something that will turn your current notions upside down? if yes, what aspect of your understanding you are most doubtful atm?

I am also very sensitive, and what minimized this are 1) realise that people's actions that trigger u have no value 2) meditate and self-inquiry, once done properly u start to see ur ego, and it will be harder for u to be hurted by someone

I guess i should've made topic name as 'pursuing enlightenment and pineal gland' coz today, just now actually, i've reached some epiphany moment, 3 weeks since my meditation practices and i now started to see ego for the first time. i sort of risen above thoughts, emotions, feelings, body. i was meditating, then self-inquiring and bam it hits me - whose thoughts are those? whose feelings are those? whose body is it? who is thinking? who is feeling? who is seeing? who is speaking? i was like spectator. i started to see that i don't have much control, and im being controlled by needs and wants. this is nuts, i am being controlled by my needs of social approval + food and other cravings all the time!!! i started to see that its just such a stupidity! i'm being needy of something 24/7!! for the first time i see how much i am needy. wow strikes me so bad, now i realise what leo was talking about. i guess its my very first step towards ego disolution. it feels kinda good actually, i am a little bit above my mind and body. and i can't find myself, who am I? what is this all life about, its like theatre all the way from childhood till now, complete theatre and actors around! feels kinda scary and good in the same time. i feel this tiny glimpse of freedom. n i see now how awful is to be needy, how terrible is to be controlled by never-ending desires, my imagination is limitless i constantly want and lack something, and i see how any big acomplishments i want in my life would only make me to pursue something more and more without fullfilment. being controlled by desires and being needy sucks so bad!! i can't enjoy anything. damn i never realised this until now. this was not life but circus. idiotism, bigotry, lies, fakeness, robotness. and everyone around live in the same hell. i was just being triggered all the time by people and my desires. triggered by what people think, by someone elses emotions, by someone elses actions, by everything! everything arounds control me! it would be amazing if one day i can sit with my parents and not being triggered by their criticism. caring about ur self-image sucks so bad u can't imagine! i guess i'll lose this feeling quickly, but this glimpse of freedom is nice, it defo worths a lot. so that was my practices during last 3 weeks: meditation, now i feel like my mind just meditates all the time when i am not busy, maybe its illusiory i dunno. also i pass out sometimes during meditation which is completely weird, i just fall asleep for a minute time to time during meditation, what the hell utube vibrational frequencies music of all kind, defo helped a lot, amazing thing it is i hallucinated cosmos and stars yesterday, was cool, also i see waves all the time if get concentrated. overall meditation brings me a lot of hallucination, i guess it is just me being sensitive to this. and damn i don't know if there is difference between 'real' hallucination and 'hallucination' hallucinations. this is really confusing staff. i started to see a lot of dreams with archetypes like white talking rabbit (lol) and empty black box and many other staff. my subconscious tries to tell me something. my diet gets better, im leaning towards healthier staff naturally without will. i feel huge pressure in my head constantly, which is weird. in terms of 3rd eye nothing much yet a good insight: I see why there is contradicting advice about 'u should not desire enlightenment & u should desire it so bad' its necessary to understand this balance on this journey. u should not desire or pursue or need anything on this journey!!! like literally u should cut out your emotional pursue of enlightenment! cut it! don't desire it! but instead export your desire your pursue on abstract level and keep it there. let this be a simple understanding that u need enlightenment and understanding that u need to do work for it. BUT don't let it go into emotional field or it will turn into achievement game. don't desire it emotionally, instead want it on some tiny abstract level to extent where U DON'T THINK ABOUT IT, BUT YOU JUST DO YOUR PRACTICES WITHOUT DESIRE TO ACHIEVE SOMETHING OUT OF IT. that's how i see this

Brain hallucinates reality. Brains have evolved to reinterpret true reality for our convenience = survival. This is how reality might look like or like this: good video on how brain interpret reality. recommend to watch:

How Quantum Physics, String Theory and science overall correspond with GOD-CONSCIOUSNESS-NOTHINGNESS-ILLUSIOARY REALITY-ABSOLUTE INFINITY-ONENESS-POTENTIALandACTUAL-INFINITE DIMENSIONS etc

what's the most reliable source of how to activate kundalini?

You said you were always into understanding reality but what exactly made you to stumble upon spirituality during your self-actualisation work? Was it a particular book? Was it a documentary? An article? Meeting some person? And did you become interested in spritituality before or after you started actualized.org?

its called illuminati (plural of Latin illuminatus, "enlightened")

I think imagination is why ‘we are made in the image of god’. Imagination of people is tool for consciousness to express itself on further and further levels. So maybe the ‘closer we are to god’ the more impossible things we can do through our imagination. More consciousness = more freedom for expansion of imagination through turning potential into actual. I really want Leo to address how can we conceptualise existence of actual and potential in the absolute infinity. Alice laughed. “There’s no use trying,” she said: “one can’t believe impossible things.” “I daresay you haven’t had much practice,” said the Queen. “When I was your age, I always did it for half-an-hour a day. Why, sometimes I’ve believed as many as six impossible things before breakfast.”.

I just realised that depression is the thing that makes you very close to enlightenment. And there are two ways out of depression - first is to fight against it, win and become happy - that’s what people usually do, that’s what psychologist advise to do. And the second way is to go deeper and deeper into depression straight to the point of death, the point when nothing left, then your ego dies out and you realise enlightenment! Not many people decide to go and sacrafice own ego during depression. This is counterintuitive (as Leo would say) if you depressed go and become even more depressed! Suffer, but then sacrifice your ego, your self to reach the very bottom end, literally sacrafice yourself, your life with full honesty without waiting for something in return, without the need and desire for enlightenment, gave away everything, surrender your wants and desire, realise you want nothing, you need nothing, and realise nothing left, realise there is nothing except what it is right now - and then become enlightened. OR go and fight, kill dragon,hope for better, win and become happy again, fight for enlightenment - that’s nice but that’s all ego fight and ego victory, yes you won, but it really is just your ego won. That’s what people usually do during depression, that’s why only few enlightened. Because if everyone would go and sacrifice self when self is already so sad and tired and on the verge then whole western civilisation would be enlightened given the rates of depression. That is what only crazy people would do, coz it’s an existential suicide and no different than real sacrifice of your life! Because by doing this, your self image thinks that it sacrifices itself literally and gonna die after that! Look many enlightened people become so after depression or trauma. So i guess there’s a requirement to go and die on the cross, and only then come back to walk on the water. Maybe it’s not the only way, but it certainly seem as what most of famous enlightened people like Tolle has experienced. Think of dark night of soul. Think of Jesus dying on cross, he asks God ‘why you left me?’, then he accepts god’s will, It’s a clear metaphor of depression, of suffering of the ego, resistance and eventual surrender.

i see those waves during meditation when i put some 'vibration frequencies music' i don't know what's the use of that skill though

You can skip all but tell me, is Jed McKenna’s description of enlightenment is how enlightenment actually is????? Is that as dark as he describes? And how would you describe it in a literal way? I really like Jed’s writing and I’m not exposing or rejecting him by any means, on the contrary I do believe in what he says coz he sounds very reliable and he really removes some fairy tales, but I don’t know what to think about it, probably I’m not getting something but I feel like Jed’s description of enlightenment is somehow different from others’ including Leo’s. And I get that enlightenment is not all nice but a bittersweet pill where bittersweetness is not a problem. But in Jed’s description of Truth, Truth is sorta very ‘dark’ and doesn’t look like something natural. As I understood ‘enlightenment’, before reading Jed, was something like ‘feeling of borderlessness and oneness with everything beyond your body’, and ‘feeling as if you are child who knows nothing again’, and peace and staff like that. But Jed doesn’t seem to talk about that at all, and please correct me if I’m wrong but these are how he seems to perceive the world: 1. There is no feeling of connection and oneness but rather total isolation in infinite cosmos. 2. He feels that people are not real or alive, but rather not more alive than a stone. But shouldn’t everything start to feel more lively instead ??? 3. Overall he doesn’t seem to feel bliss and peace etc.. but rather emptiness. 4. Total nihilism. This nihilism as I see it should turn into something like seeing beauty in everything without need for meaning, but Jed seem to miss all this meaning since he does emphasise meaningless life so much. Yes life’s meaningless but if you can’t shut up about it, it seems like you want some meaning? And Jed seems to want some meaning. Maybe I’m wrong 5. In the end of the day, he suggests against pursuing enlightenment but rather to be sensible adult and enjoy positive aspects of life coz after enlightenment you cannot enjoy ‘positive’ things of this world anymore because no more good and bad dichotomy. Jed talks how watching movies has no emotional triggers anymore, so does people in real life who looks like soap opera characters. But how can one enjoy beauty in life or in arts while for example watching movies where whole point to connect to story and ‘be involved’ in this story for 90mins? Isn’t that the whole point of art, connection and aesthetics? How to feel this life to the fullest if ‘your existence’ become observer-like and not participator-like? 6. He doesn’t seem to think that enlightenment is your natural state of being. And I always thought that enlightenment is a state in which any living body SHOULD live naturally and only because of unnatural bug in ego we do not live in it. This question really bothers me, if kids and animals are really enlightened, it then has to be natural for us, but some gurus seem to say that it is not something that everyone need or should have in their life. ? 7. Also he says that enlightenment always require conscious intention, it cannot happen spontaneously. But how about Tolle, Sadhguru and many others who didnt pursue it, but it just happened to them without intention? 8. Has to do with personality? Coz some enlightened people (like Rupert Spira, Sadhguru and Tolle) constantly talk about joy and peace and staff like that, while Jed sort of emphasises harsh reality. So might it be that enlightenment will lead to different ‘mood outcomes’ for different personalities? Jed seemed to describe himself as pessimistic anti-social type guy prior, and did enlightenment just increase these characteristics in him? I don’t get it tbh. 9. I like his straightforwardness and description of non-duality though, but he made me to doubt if I really want to pursue this. I already feel constantly disconnected and empty, its hard for me to find meaning in anything and to have passion or purpose, and everyone already seems unreal and fake, and there’s not much joy in me anyway And If I got McKenna right, all of that will just skyrocket towards infinity for enlightened person but it’s no longer problem, except that it’s not because of nice peace but rather coz of some nice emptiness. I mean all of that is not what I felt in ‘unconsciously enlightened childhood’, childhood was nice happy-magical times, definitely unconscious ‘oneness’, and I thought enlightenment is something like early childhood. I’m sure I’m not getting something. But if so, how would you describe your own state of enlightenment, not in a poetic way but as literal as possible?

its one of the best episodes, and now i see why we have to be what we actually are instead of being a 1 small ego, and i see now clearer why there is no borders, so the need to be enlightened now get much more sense, its our true nature not just good or right way to live. its crazy that there is no book no theory and no author that talks about what Leo said in modern language? there's only old wisdom but no modern staff. no one talked about that as deep as Leo?

can't wait, i always wonder Leo, why don't you just record many many videos in advance. and then simply upload them every week

thank you guys, whole picture seem bit clearer now ya he's talking to ego! thanks, thats right, i didn't quite realise that also true that he doesn't resonate with 'unconditional love' crowd, very accurate point, and i guess that's precisely why his style seem repulsive, coz while reading i was like - c'mon man where is your unconditionaaaal lovvvvve, send me some loaavvvee vibes maaaaaaaaan, isn't enlightenment all looooovee mann, can't you be john lennon a bit?? and he's like 'nah, all good, just killing time until time kills me... nothing to do nowhere to go.... don't want anything..... haha these chimps are sleeping naive chimps.... ehhh can't wait this body to die...don't care for you imma just write my book...ah leave me alone...' sounded more like chilling marijuana user so defo such impression makes to question whether u want to become like that but i see your points, makes lots of sense
