Posted February 24, 2023 The first impression is: yes, this is insane that a so called spiritual teacher speaks this way with his so called students. But, thinking deeply: Leo is Leo, we all know how he is and, chances are, connect with it. Yes, this can be a fertil ground for abuse but is not like anyone is surprised to see him being nasty. Also, each spiritual teacher acts on its own accord, a good percentage in history was preety brutal and agressive with his students. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted February 24, 2023 It is a certain aesthetic and style choice. God just prompted Leo to simulate being like that: In the Vast Expanse everything that arises is Lively Awakened Awareness. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

This hasn't yet been cleared up by the guy who posted the comments in the first place, all we've had is second hand opinions. It would be good if this had more time for him to come and explain himself on what the outburst meant and clear it up, rather from the words of others, maybe I'll learn a thing or two. If this gets locked it'll never be spoken about or cleared up again then we won't know, after all this outburst has indeed at least somewhat divided people and changed their outlooks towards him, I think this is an important discussion.

Leo is not a doctor or a psychologist. He has no duty of care towards any of you. Just like with Teal Swan or any guru, take the teachings, and then don't get too attached to the teacher. I respect Leo and his work, but I don't idolize him. Good mentality. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted February 25, 2023 “Everyone you read and follow is a idiot.” - Leo Gura Only geniuses make language usage errors in the same sentence they insult another person’s intelligence. What did the stage orange scientist call the stage blue fundamentalist for claiming YHWH intentionally caused Noah’s great flood? Delugional. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted February 25, 2023 (edited) To all guys whining, complaining and having a full mental breakdown over some comment you read on the internet, GROW A PAIR OF BALLS. Stop being so defensive. Grow some thick skin. Don't be pussy. I sincerely hope that Leo continues this style of teaching. "beating you bunch of degraded dogs with a crowbar" lmfaooooo That reply was so badass and creative. I love it. Edited February 25, 2023 by Bobby_2021 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted February 25, 2023 (edited) Leo was most likely on psychedelics when he wrote this and hence the insights were so clear to him. Speaking with any other fashion besides that which he used would pretty much dilute the message entirely. You guys are getting caught in the weeds and as a consequence WILL TAKE A LOT LONGER to grasp what he is trying to tell you.

Posted February 25, 2023 Whether you guys think the outburst was abusive, mean, outlandish or not, can we at least agree on the thing?: That he said he was going to clean up his communications and he hasn't? "I will also be making an effort to improve my communication with you to rise to the level of maturity, wisdom, and respect that you deserve." https://www.actualized.org/forum/topic/89380-strict-crackdown-on-duplicate-accounts-immaturity/ "This forum will no longer be a safe haven for immature or emotionally unhinged people. Anyone not mature enough to communicate or socialize in a mentally-stable and integrous manner will simply not get to participate around me." https://www.actualized.org/forum/topic/89380-strict-crackdown-on-duplicate-accounts-immaturity/ The outburst was unhinged to me, he started going into Buddhism and a bunch of s*** that wasn't even mentioned in the thread at all prior! Seemed like total projection! The way leo dishes out critsim to others ruthelssly he deserves to be called out and held to his word. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted February 25, 2023 So just to be clear, right now we are at a place where speaking up against being treated one way means you are a pussy, and you liking dirty talk and jerking off to it means you have balls. Good job guys, keep going! Some of you guys must have a kink where you like dirty talk and being shamed. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
