@Carl-Richard “True happiness cannot be purchased because it is the result of a well conditioned mind and lifestyle that takes years to cultivate”

In other words, virtue.


Intrinsic joy is revealed in the marriage of meaning and being.

@Leo Gura I really appreciate the detailed lists and honesty about meditation and spirituality. 

What I got from this episode the most is that our minds are so freaking different. Totally different paradigms potentialy. Inspiring to keep digging into ones mind. Thank you Leo.

Nice!


“If you're going to try, go all the way. Otherwise, don't even start. This could mean losing girlfriends, wives, relatives and maybe even your mind. It could mean not eating for three or four days. It could mean freezing on a park bench. It could mean jail. It could mean derision. It could mean mockery--isolation. Isolation is the gift. All the others are a test of your endurance, of how much you really want to do it. And, you'll do it, despite rejection and the worst odds. And it will be better than anything else you can imagine. If you're going to try, go all the way. There is no other feeling like that. You will be alone with the gods, and the nights will flame with fire. You will ride life straight to perfect laughter. It's the only good fight there is.”

― Charles Bukowski

The best part was when you said doing things for their own sake. I got goosebumps. I really resonate with that.

Loved the video.

  • Try stay healthy
  • Do work you enjoy and are good at
  • Don't manipulate too much
  • Enjoy your hobbies
  • Do what you wanna do
  • Hang out with people who you can really vibe with and just cut out h8rs and drama cre8rs
  • If you wanna paint, then do that, if not then dont
  • Cuddle with your cat and get mad serotonin
  • Dont let spiritual teachers suck you into hardcore practice or make you feel like you're a moronic normie for wanting the above.
  • Bonus pionts for reaching God consciousness
  • Put drugs in your bum occasionally and connect with God, but dont live your life that way.
  • Don't be stupid and chase money and dopamine. Unless you have ambition, then do whatever.
  • Try and be a good person, so you can sleep easy.
  • Listen to good music but dont move in nextdoor to a raver.

Powerful video!

Btw, I laughed a lot about the kid's story and you needing to sleep in your car.

That's sad but funny :D

The video made me very hopeful. It reminded me why I do the things that I do and put me in a good mood all day.

@Thought Art "Takes years to cultivate" Can often and easily be used as an excuse not to make important changes you can do today! For example a healthy diet does not take years to accomplish. You can cut out junk food today. And then from there it's a long journey,
