Posted December 7, 2020 Well, I had a good long conversation with Connor and we discussed plenty of traps involved in this work. Overall he's a lot more reasonable than he appears in his zany videos. His videos are overly dramatic for views and clicks. I'm not concerned for his mental health. He seems stable and happy and he has a pretty good grasp of nonduality. The only concern besides the image problems he creates for himself is some of the bold plans he has for teaching people awakening via Tantric sex, which I think is not gonna be effective and will be ripe for hurt/abuse. We've discussed the dangers and he's aware of my concerns but ultimately it's his business and it has nothing to do with what I teach. His and my styles and standards for teaching are very different. He likes a flamboyant and dramatic approach. I explained to him the dangers of that. He is open to feedback but also a firm believer in his approach and techniques. Connor's a decent guy from what I can tell and perhaps in 5 or 10 years he will make a solid teacher as his style matures. He's quite young and cocky so of course the maturity is still lacking, but that's to be expected for someone his age. We had little disagreement on the substance of nonduality or God. Our differences lie in style, attitude, and values. What he learned from me is not the style but some metaphysical and epistemic articulations which helped him make sense of his psychedelic awakening experiences. He was enjoyable to talk to. I wish him well. You are God. You are Truth. You are Love. You are Infinity. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kudos to you for reaching out to him, its good to see something positive come out of this thing. I think there is a lesson there in regards to your initial reaction, because I think we can see with a bit of hindsight... it wasn't great. In regards to your offer of having to discussion to correct the record then I have messaged you and posted in this forum to try and arrange something, so if you are sincere then the ball is in your court. If you have changed your mind then that's fine, but please do me the courtesy of saying so - after all it was you who made the offer. Rob Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He is just experimenting and going through a deep spiritual process. I watched his videos and I've to say he is 1000 times better than me.

He loves that clickbait. He certainly wasn't unhinged face to face with me. Normal healthy young dude from what I can tell. You are God. You are Truth. You are Love. You are Infinity.

Posted December 7, 2020 But still wondering how he got so much insights in such a short time. Maybe this is the perk of having a stable stage orange ground and stable psyche to begin with.

Damn man, I think it is crucial to make a practical video on this. What do you think ? Most of us doing spiritual work in this century with all these tools and paths very often end up looking like schizoid disintegrated swiss cheese. I am not judging the guys in the video, I am actually thinking about what happens to most people including myself. Ooo Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
