Lol, welcome to the social matrix. Yes. Simple - do what you know to be right, and accept(!) all consequences (both internally & externally). Let your folks feel your appreciation from time to time

Leo isn't really a master in this field. You're better off studying Owen Cook (the guy Leo learned from).

lmao wtf

Lol careful - the triggered, anti-vegan "but aighe need muh meat" mob is comin'

Hot

Yes - I observe that yellow tends to "take a break" from sexuality by recognizing that it doesn't lead to to Eudaimonia. Yellow can appear to act in the same manner as blue (at quick glance), but rather than coming from a place of suppression/repression/tension/inauthenticity, it has genuinely let go of sex, is capable of having it, but decides not to from of place of sincerity & relaxation. In some ways this is a "phase" bridging green and turquoise, a right of passage. You can't really go turquoise with your sexuality before knowing what it feels like to let sex go completely. I also see some people pretending to be "above" sex by mimicking this stage, but you can tell when people are faking it. I think stage yellow sexuality is what blue was trying (and failing) to copy with all of its denial. How to know you're at this stage (instead of faking it): You've had mind-blowing and fulfilling-loving sex before but you naturally don't chase it whatsoever - it doesn't even cross your mind. Turquoise comes full circle imo and engages with sex again, but with the newfound recognition that life and people are more mysterious and beautiful and full of love than we ever imagined at green or yellow, and the difference between self and other is imaginary. Turquoise can appear to act in the same manner as green (at a quick glance), but rather than coming from a place of "two people merging" to "make love," it doesn't even see "two people" to begin with - in that sense, sex with a partner and masturbation are metaphysically identical, in either case Self-Love (and especially appreciation for existence) is expressed - and there is never a moment of "turning on the lovemaking" since love was never "off" to begin with... "sex" is happening as you stroll around the street just as much as it occurs in the sheets. Sounds impossible, sounds like I'm redefining the word "sex" on a whim... maybe I am, and maybe that's fine. In a nutshell, this stage is about realizing that definitions were never solid anyway. It's like all of our collective human definitions are shapes made by clouds, and we think they are immutable, until the clouds move and we realize the shapes were "never solid anyway." And only then are we free to appreciate the cloud for simply existing, no matter what shape it takes. And acknowledging the cloud no matter what shape it takes - that's basically what sex is, isn't it? When the clothes come off and the bodies merge, what we're doing is we're dissolving definitions and holding space for whatever unfolds. The same with masturbation: when "you" stroke "yourself" it's like God petting his child, "I love you" by becoming the child and definitions dissolve... ...ok that last bit sounds weird without a reference experience ???

Lucky girl doesn't realize that normies like us would kill for her gifts

Cringe how?

Fuck, man...

Common theme seems to be charismatic/nice people "in disguise." Why might we struggle to tell the difference between genuine and disguised niceness?

Absolutely speaking, "you" were never "alive" to begin with. All of this conceptualizing is myopic belief-making.

Or, maybe a guy who already has social abundance has so much positive feedback, self-confidence, and willingness to follow his desire that he bets on himself in a heartbeat and effortlessly says hi, attracting her on the spot. There's nothing "inherent" about your limiting belief.

First of all, correlation does not equal causation. But more importantly, what was the sampling method and size used by these researchers? How is "acceptance" defined and derived? You ain't got "cold hard truth" until these nuances are resolved.

Not at all. Psychedelics are a tool just as a stove is a tool. They both have profound benefits and potential dangers. OP is saying to NEVER use a tool while the telos of a tool is usage lol. I am pointing out the silliness.

Complete nonsense. It seems as though you are immature and you got burned. This is like saying "NEVER EVER EVER COOK WITH A STOVE! YOU WILL GET BURNED!" Like bruh just don't touch the fire lmao. Cooking in no way necessitates that you touch fire. I will continue to use a stove as I see fit whenever I want to cook, and I will simply not touch the fire. Likewise with psychedelics: Earn high self-esteem, have survival handled, become grounded, purify your biases all prior to the trip. Then, all that remains are profound benefits that satiate your spiritual hunger (as food would satiate literal hunger). It's actually very simple and effortless if you're mature.

Might we be unconsciously forming an identity out of "healing?" And if so - doesn't that just reinforce the sense that "I am broken [since I need healing]" ?? Have you considered that there is literally nothing to heal? Being unbroken (so to speak) doesn't mean supergluing two shards together but rather noticing that there were never two shards, only one whole! I mean who tf told you (by word or action) that you are "broken" (don't get caught up in this), and more importantly - isn't it stunning that we've allowed their judgements to override our default state of wholeness? Have you ever suspected that you're PERFECT (literally flawless) and WHOLE right now, as you are? Cuz this is the case - despite what you or I or anybody else says. Just a vibe I'm getting, could be wrong

Means you've got more room to grow

It pains me to read some of these responses. Those criticizing Leo here are clearly out of their league, punching upwards at empty air. It's like @aurum said somewhere earlier: There are genuine and meaningful critiques that can be made of Leo's work, but I have yet to see a single one on this entire thread. All criticisms here are from "below" - they all attack a self-conceived, misrepresented fantasy loosely based on Leo's work - rather than the real thing. For more on criticizing from "below:" Please keep in mind that Leo is not playing games when he says that he has a decade of contemplation over you. The lack of reverence is just laughable, though entirely predictable and inevitable.

Good luck

@EntheogenTruthSeeker On boredom: "Grace fills empty spaces, but it can only enter where there is a void to receive it." - Simone Weil "Simone Weil is surely thinking here of her time in the car factory, when her vision of the ideal was replaced by the awareness of death. She saw her coworkers trying to escape this awareness by cruelty to each other or by simple daydreaming. If they only knew to accept the void, she thought, their work could be a means of contact with God." - Laurie Gagne Exodus 20:4 "You shall not make for yourself an idol in the form of anything in heaven above or on the earth beneath or in the waters below." Wake up!

Dear God! You're a champion!

Well said. Lemme add that even the notion of "questions" are drenched with social matrix stink. As well as the notion of a "notion"/"negating a notion." There are no questions or notions, fundamentally. But by the time you truly realize that, you're floating above the charade and laughing, and you've got nothing to combat. That's not to say that questioning is not valuable, though. It can set you in the right trajectory. But the mistake is to think that you're out of the muck just because you're a questioner!

LOL.

It's gonna be ok.

why must something be "real" for it to be manifest? and what meaning is there in saying that it's "yours" when there are no others? redundant...
