Please find examples of fake spirituality. I am especially interested in New Age examples. But cult examples are also acceptable. This is spirituality that is very conformist, performative, fantastical, conceptual, ungrounded, word salad, grifty, magical, corrupt, occult. Cringe spiritual BS, basically. I want to see how bad it gets. How deep does self-deception and fantasy go? How deep does the New Age go?

This is a catch-all thread for any comments or discussions you guys wanna have about any entries from Leo's Blog.

Tell that to them. They are the ones who act so self-important. The truth is that progressives are too self-absorbed to admit that they do not matter. This would kill them inside.

It's fascinating how love can be used to whitewash corruption. The Devil loves to be loved by a lover of love.

Yes

We all know it's perfect, but just in case This should be a doozy. Let's hear it all. No guarantees of implementation. Be gentle with me. I might cry.

The most important thing they need to do is to expand their worldview beyond their ideological echochamber. They need to be more realistic and understanding about why the majority of voters are not progressive. And they need to stop blaming centrists for everything. They need to admit that progressivism is a minority position.

I don't do it.

We have a Kirya yoga mega-thread that answers many newbie questions. Follow the books. I suggest focusing 100% on pranayama spinal breathing. All other techniques are tertiary and mostly unnecessary. You could reduce all Kriya yoga to just pranayama and maha-mudra. Which makes it so simple.

Of course

Kirya yoga is the solution to purification and a disturbed mind.

I have never been happier than when I realize I am God. It is literal ecstasy. You are resisting ecstasy.

Depends on what you mean by insanity. You could be talking about actual mental illness which is a problem to be taken seriously and treated. Or you could be talking about higher dimensions of consciousness which are radical and freaky, but not unhealthy or dysfunctional, in which case you just approach them with curiosity and wonder. Your fear is warranted if you are losing control of yourself in dangerous ways, like if you are becoming suicidal or homocidal. Otherwise the fear is probably just resistance to higher dimensions of consciousness which are actually beautiful in their weirdness.

Rather than debating about solipsism what you guys need to do is focus on grasping what God is. The deeper you grasp God the more clarity you will have on the solipsism question. People do not understand what God is. Even enlightened people do not. It takes more than enlightenment to understand it. God is a singular mind that creates a reality around itself because it has no one to define reality for it. Lack of other is what makes God God. All non-God notions of reality assume an other which limits reality. The key to full God-Realization is realizing that other is imagined by you. If other is entirely imaginary then your mind has absolute power. Then you are truly God.

They haven't been right. Criticizing is much easier than winning elections. They will be right when they win elections, not call lost elections. Progressives have been responsible for Trump's victories. They haven't. Far more centrists win elections than progressives. Progressives are just so self-absorbed they don't even notice.

Powerful, famous, and wealthy people need an interviewer who will never challenge their corruption. That's why Lex is perfect for the job.

No, I am talking about the possibility of different Gods which have no contact with each other. It is the notion of multiple Absolute Minds. Imagine infinite different Absolutes. This is a twisted notion.

Well, very simply, once you realize you are God and what God is, you can then go on to have a crazy new idea, which is that there can be infinite versions of you. Just imagine infinite Gods, like islands or universes unto themselves. Basically what happens after you realize Infinity is that you start to discover ever more radical consequences of Infinity. Literally new domains of Infinity open up to you because Infinity is endless. You discover more and more crazy shit about what Infinity means. Infinity is so vast that your first realizations of it are not enough to realize it all. Infinity is a crazy radical thing.

Because I don't want to be alone. Duh.

It's totally different because the shit Trump says hits the reptile brain of 100 million ignorant survival zombies. You do not have that advantage as a progressive. Conservatives are marketing bacon, cocaine, and pussy while progressives are marketing celery and oatmeal.

If solipsism is true a sage is a trick you invented to keep yourself from realizing you are God. Don't you see? God has to trick itself to feel a sense of otherness. Otherwise God would be all alone. So the trick needs to be extremely tricky, otherwise God would immediately see through it. So you gotta contemplate how would God create a sense of other that feels totally real. What tricks would it use?
