Oh man! Thats exactly what I was thinking. Eckhart doesnt need to go on Oprah, he needs to meet up with Trump on a Yoga-retreat.

Open-Mindedness has its limits of course. Noone is so open-minded that their brain falls out, but you can have a healthy amount of it.

You dont need ask someone else. Ask yourself, why do YOU want to live? Why do YOU want to experience?

@Leo Gura Will you make a Blog video on it?

Even Jesus visited the money-lenders.

I imagine ego death to be some sort of weird void but that cant be it because whatever i imagine is not it... but my ego refuses to hear that, it thinks im gonna trip out or something

Ive only died maybe a millisecond i want to die moooore

How do you Red Pillers even find this place. Jeez.

Trying to reach ecstatic states can be harmful. Most teachers would advise you to let go of the pleasure and stay equanimious with it, otherwise its impossible to see the truth of who you are because youre too wrapped up in it. All your pleasures and states are impermanent and you will never be happy unless you can let go of them. It depends on what you want though, theres absolutely nothing wrong with pleasure.

You would die within a week if your Serotonin was rushing like that all the time, you couldnt even sleep or eat. Years of meditation can probably give you a strong taste though.

Good. Your personal contemplations will be much more valuable. If you want to do them.

Im not your teacher.

So many assumptions in your post. Start by asking yourself what ”alive” actually means and if something can even be alive.

1. Most of them are dogmatic and close-minded about things that dont fall into the science category, I read yesterday for example that Philosophy is not considered a Science, thats absolutely insane, Philosophy is one of the most important tools to discover what reality is 2. They think that all the answers to reality can be found outside in the ”objective” world and that human experience is not scientific (see the contradiction?) 3.They worship the brain as the benchmark for all thats true or false ”Oh LSD is just a brain-trip, it isnt ”real” (another contradiction) But Science will grow much better in the future, its already on the way, were moving away from the materialist Dawkins and Hitchens type of thinking into more interesting Stage Green/Yellow terrority If Science integrated Heart, Soul and Open-Minded interest in ALL types of Experience it could change the entire planet radically

”meditate on something” to me means a deliberate mindful contemplation of a topic

Yes, of course, it kills you, what did you think

sitting through 2 hour class with Leo ”Alright Im done here!...” class sighs with relief and stands up halfway ”...but before I go i just wanna” class cries with despair

No! Watch your projections.

Touché. I prefer an old man to whisper sweet books into my ear. Im weird like that. My inner reader is not that exciting.

Wow! You actually read. I just go for audiobooks.

I was doing some Shadow Work today and I realized that even the love from my family is conditional. I love them alot but if I did something too crazy beyond their limits they would leave me for sure. The question came up... are Enlightened beings the only ones capable of really loving someone?

We should detonate a bomb that spreads clouds of 5-MeO all over the globe. Instant saving of the planet.

Youre a victim of your victim mentality.

You said you dont look up to teachers anymore. Even Ralston? Or some obscure Zen Master?
