He did by fucking up my health.

Fuck God and his stupid games.

It helps that I'm an asshole.

It could be helpful to those who are mostly distracted by niceness or arrogance.

Not distracted. Worshipping.

I was this close to saying it, but I didn’t want to be rude.

God was like let me grab Leo's psychedelic, no more forbidden fruit for ya go meditate like the rest of rats.

My ego likes calling Buddhists "rats" because then it can feel superior without having to put in any effort into meditation and brushes off not having the same level of devotion and discipline

Sneaky little shortcut huh

Yeah, be careful with that.

Buddhist meditation skill is not to be underestimated. It is seriously impressive. Just not the end all be all they wish it was.

Meditation does not grant intelligence. You can meditate for decades and still be stupid.

You were getting too far ahead of us, so God decided to slow you down.

Thank God for giving us a tiny chance to catch up with Leo!

I find Teal Swans premium guided meditations utterly amazing. The core of them is basicaly - emotional literacy and shadow work.

I had a breathtaking awekening on LSD while doing some of the methods learned in these meditations.

@Leo Gura, will you do a video of an analysis of your experience with different tools?

Does contemplation grant it ? Which grants tranquility amidst chaos-- Meditation or contemplation ?

Ideally you should be wordclass in meditation, psychedelics and yoga.

In the same way that MMA fighters are world class in striking, wrestling and jiu-jitsu.

Your breakdown of Jordan Hall’s Christian worldview is impressive. I was quite amazed by his intellect and articulation when you first posted—but even more amazed how Tier 2 still falls into epistemic traps as it relates to understanding God and self deception. I don’t think people realize how impactful this is.

Understanding is epistemically impenetrable-there’s a strong sense of confidence when you really grasp it.

I think Jordan gave it up very quickly when he referred to being unable to perceive or imagine the father. Then he goes on to say the son provides the interface.

I have never heard of Jordan, let alone listened to any of his content, but I would say it’s fairly obvious that he is a long way from being god realised.

I assume his usual discussions and talks imply otherwise?
