Monkey-man

Hey Leo, are you interested in such illusionary thing as soul and reincarnation? What does your research suggest so far about whether illusionary body has illusionary soul and whether reincarnation exists as a phenomenon of course? And are you going to shoot videos about that?

I don't quite get yet, what's the end of the cycle of birth and death as a physical body, is it enlightenment itself or is it only possible if you reach some highest stage of enlightenment? And also, is ending the cycle of samsara and liberation is the ultimate goal of spiritual seekers? And Leo do you want to be reborn again, or u want to go to nirvana?? Ps. I know we do not exist, but u know what I mean

What comes to mind when I think about absolute infinity

well i know its boring, but anyways once ur body is dead, what's ur experience gonna be like? would u be like one with absolute infinity and be aware of everything or would it be emptiness and nothingness?

Why LOVE? Why it is love what created everything? Why not something else? Why infinity is love?

@Lauritz would u describe feeling of experience without experiencer as a pleasant one at 100% of the time?

@Leo Gura Ok, this I know, but there is an absolute infinity, right? So, imaginary body is dead and illusions fade away, but what's there when illusions fades away - nothingness or infinite awareness?

Forget it. Everyone is beautiful. All the world's evil that has happened made you to be born. Without those evils you wouldn't be born in the first place. You know, if u are in Europe, then if no Hitler - ur parents would never meet coz history would roll in different direction, people would migrate in different direction. If your monkey ancestor wouldn't kill another monkey for food, then he would die instead, he would not reproduct and you would never be born as a human being. also, conspiracy is only partially true, life is more complex than just puppeteers doing their thing, u overestimate all the rotschield&rockfeller staff u don't have to be enlightened to get over this, coz i am not and i got over, i was too obsessed with evil/conspiracy thing in the past but it passed, u will pass it too also realise that u have no control, so u can't really help anyone or stop evil.

I feel like I am in red, blue, orange, green and yellow, and maybe even turquoise stages (I doubt abt turquoise though). I have an inner conflict, like I am getting teared apart, and one explanation I think of is that different stages demand different actions, and they all contradict each other. This makes me so sick that now I feel like I have fallen into stage beige. What to do in this situation?

If enlightenment suppose to make people loving and caring to the whole universe, why I see so many enlightened people who talks about enlightenment but seem so arrogant, lofty and even selfish?

Surely they are free to behave in authentic way and play like they are arrogant for some deep purposes. But I rather meant that enlightened people still may have discomfort, negativity and lack harmony in their own minds, and be non-free from judgements and neurosis, which in turn leads to arrogance. Coz you know after Leo's videos, I thought of enlightenment as a panacea from all human troubles Also, when I play sports games I feel like enlightened and very conscious because of 100% presence in the moment. Can we say that it is any similar state to enlightenment?

@Leo Gura but Leo didn't you say that once you enlightened and realise that everything is you - you genuinely want to treat everything and everyone with care just as much as you care about your own body and that you love all what surrounds you?

Reality is the Universe playing with itself? I think I’ve heard this phrase in one of Leo’s videos What does it mean exactly?

@Nahm why absolute is love if absolute includes both living and non-living? non-living can't feel love. even animals can't really feel love in the same way as people do. isn't love a creation of evolution, evolved merely for human reproduction? so isn't then love an attribute of living organisms? why can we claim that universe is love? only because enlightenment gives us this feeling?

Coz absolute wants to play?

Living organism is afraid to die. All what living organism does is surviving. Whatever we do is aimed to live now or live more in future, and all our motivations come from this. We work to live. We create art coz we will feel more alive if we do. Whole society is structured in the way to make life better or at least people THINK their structure, system will make life better, but still it stems from desire for life. And society advances coz people want to live better. We treat deceases to live more. We fall in love to live because need for love is a need to feel alive = desire to live. We do science and try to learn new because we think knowledge will make life better = we will feel more alive, OR we learn because learning is interesting, and feeling interested = feeling alive = desire to live. We do religion to have better life, or to have better afterlife which also comes from biological desire to live. We do personal development to have better life = to feel more alive. We even self-destruct to feel more alive! We drink alcohol to feel alive, to feel good. We harm ourselves, we blame ourselves or beat ourselves up because we want to fix something in order to improve life and feel more alive eventually. We even commit suicide coz it is one way of dealing with problems and dealing with problems = improving life = desire to live, so we kill ourselves because we want to live! Very paradoxical. So our whole life is simply a run to win some more time in this world, getting some more life for yourself or for whoever you identify with, for your family, kids, friends, countrymen, homo sapience species, any living organism, planet Earth (that's why we care about climate change). We pursue enlightenment to know the truth, to be happy, and why we naturally want this truth or this happiness? Because we will feel more alive. Truth is nice, right? Truth will ultimately make you very bad? No, Truth will make it very good for you. Desire for absolute truth is desire for life, for more life, for having this very moment constantly. Life is all about life, and desire for truth is all about life, all non-living things don't care about life, and all living only care about life. Our cells are charged with energy, plus and minus, and it is scientific fact. Positive and negative energy, ying and yang, life and death. Cells have negative energy so they can die out to create new cells, but this have its limits for human. But not for all animals, there are some animals who never age like Greenlandic whale, naked mole-rat and some others. They can die though in this wild world but not from ageing. So doesn't all that mean that the point of life is to live forever and living organism is not necessarily designed to die eventually, and what Jesus and Buddha tried to make is a manual of eternal life for a living organism, all nirvana and heaven notions??? Was it not the manual of creating heaven on Earth, right here, right now with your own mind and body? And heaven is where your are young, happy and live forever. What if they saw that heaven is possible on Earth? What if they implied not only achieving understanding and experiencing of infinity, eternity but actually living forever as a human-being in your own body. They gave us some diet advices, some good habit advices, good behaviour advices etc which all aimed on making us to get into heaven state. Of course their knowledge was limited comparing to what we have now. The truth and enlightenment are not enough, I guess for this matter you have to have your whole life to live in certain way, like super-healthy, not living in bad ecology, only drinking some very high quality water etc. I understand that life and non-life dichotomy or borderline only exist as illusion within absolute. But can we make a thought experiment? What if absolute infinity is sort of a life within nothingness which is sort of a non-life. Absolute infinity wants to live forever, while nothingness doesn't care. Interesting fact, meditation slows down ageing, I guess enlightenment even more. But what if there is more to enlightenment, deeper and deeper enlightenments? Longer and longer, until you constantly experiencing bliss and happiness, and peace? And what if there is a stance that will make your body to stop age and die, and make your cells to reproduce without limits? Of course, given that your lifestyle and environment is healthy in all terms. I mean, if some animals like naked mole-rat have gone trough evolution and now don't have genes that is responsible for ageing, thus staying eternally young, why can't human do this without waiting for evolution? So, can we say that human-being only desires to live forever, i.e. to live in this moment infinitely, and actually able to live forever? Coz 'human being was created in the image and likeness of God', and God is infinite. I want you to realise that your rationalisation of acceptance of eventual death doesn't matter coz your instincts will always make you to try to survive even when you are on your deathbed. You can even feel that you accepted death and feel that you had a nice life, but on your deathbed - your body will try to do anything to live one more moment and one more moment and so on for infinity. Just like the universe. Sorry for my english, i hope its all clear

Watch from 12:20

What is main cause of ageing? Pre-destined program in DNA which creates free radicals to slowly kill us Or accumulated damages that eventually kill us? And how can we overcome this to stay young until death? What do you think about SkQ - Skulachev's ions, an anti-oxidant pills that kill free radicals directly in mitochondria?

Edhart Tole I think talked how meditation has effect on repairing damaged cells and DNAs, which is key of staying alive and young

I am deeply suspicious that enlightened persons in history, especially hardcore ascetics like yogis and sufis, only pursued enlightenment because they just wanted truth and wanted to eliminate suffering. These things good but once you got them, why still be ascetic and practice it so hard? Just for the matter of never suffering and always being connected to god aka feeling nice ? Or living longer? But ok you can get yourself until 120 most. So was their motivation simply live long and happy but eventually be dead? You know I think there is something wrong, I think they achieved immortality or managed to live extremely long like 500 years (religious myths often talk about longevity of some important people, e.g. Adam lived 900 years). Because then their commitment gets really clear.

I heard 90% of oxidative stress made within us, and only 10% from external environment

So what is proper breathing?

U think meditation and enlightenment can prevent ageing ?

Pros and cons? For health.
