    @TripleNipple Try and stay aware for as long as you can and check in on yourself every 15 minutes to see how little awareness you (me included) really have.

    This will relate to your meditation practice tremendously when you realize that most of your day, you weren't aware.

    Update: I've meditated(strong determination sit) for 8 days now, 20 minutes, 30 minutes the past 2 days.

    I'm in high school and have noticed how much free time the mind has and so i've doing self inquiry about 3 hours a day, not timed or anything fancy like that. Mostly asking what is suffering and simply watching myself suffer. Or taking a phenomena and asking what it is and simply watching it.

    I'm replying because i've realized what you just said, how ill go multiple hours without being aware and suddenly realize its happened. It's kind of reality shattering.

    I'm 16 and have been following Leo for about a year. I've began meditating, contemplating, awareness throughout the day, etc. I've seen the way I think become so much more mature overall(Yellow) and I'm more skilled at meditation  etc.  I'm unable to put into place the practice that I know could produce so much more results. In recent videos Leo has mentioned the mass of followers who do not practice what he suggests and just watch because its easy to just watch. I've considered myself in the middle. The longest I've meditated every day is for a week,  I have failed at meditating every day so many times.

    I guess it's a problem of lack of discipline. I came on here because I have an intuitive feeling that there is something i'm missing, but I'm sure I just need to discipline myself. 

    Any advice from people who have been in a stage of development where they are unable to discipline themselves in the practice they know will get rid of the neurosis and inner demons stopping them from wanting to be alone with themselves, doing spiritual work/meditating?

    I shot and uploaded the video but am deciding to re-shoot it because this is an important topic and found some better ways to phrase things.

    It will be at least another 48 hours.

    Shooting, rendering, and uploading a long video takes about that long.

    Hey Leo, something I would find really valuable would be if you would post the original shot on the blog or forum after the reshot video. I think this would help overcome some of the difficulty associated with every concept that is being communicated is put into the context of the viewer. It would be helpful and interesting to see how you originally phrased what you were trying to say and how you tried to say it the second time

    They still hold the same importance.
    You just realize it's all relative and there is no such thing as importance or unimportance.

    You don't need objective importance of family for them to play a familial role.

    Just like you don't need objective morals to not go killing babies.

    male and  female energies are still a thing(watch leo's video on masculine and feminine psychology)

    Only have experience with shrooms.

    my first time with two grams i had but for sure didn't need a trip sitter. Nothing much came up, I did it mostly recreationally. 

    I wouldn't go higher than 3g without a tripsitter for the first time, and even that's pushing it. It depends on where you're at, level of emotional maturity awareness, etc. 

    They are amazing to take while meditating.

    I've had profound insights

    And i've tricked myself, doing self inquiry on them I thought I was getting somewhere but I was just saying who am i over and over again and giggling without even thinking what it meant.
