If someone screams or starts a fight on the street, people are entertained and watch. We love to listen to angry tantrums, look at the Kardashians, that whole show is nothing but drama, fights. Now what I have found to grow online is just to put up a fight, find an enemy and fight it. You want to bring, peace, love etc. people will ignore you and if you somehow clickbait them into watching they will still hate you for it, as it feels like a waste of time for them. Giving value in this society and grabbing peoples attention is by putting up a fight, just like some crazy couple would yell and fight at eachother on the street. This is all that the Kardashians do and why they are so famous, besides the bbl and rich lifestyle lol. But if it was just their bbl and rich lifestyle, they wouldn´t be so famous at most a b or c level celebrity. DRAMA is king, this is entertainment, even if it is educational content, it still is entertainment, you find an enemy and fight it. Is it conscious? Is it loving? Is it good? Can be, but what is conscious is not equal to what works in real life, if you can seperate the two, you can see that success in business or in virality comes sometimes from darkness instead of the light.

I would say, I am an introvert, this means I enjoy spending time alone. Besides being introverted, I do challenge myself probably more than any introvert to go out and meet people and honestly, I don't know why extroverted people enjoy talking so much. I talk and talk and talk, I run out of energy and then I would like to either go deeper, talking about deeper stuff then "look at what that guy is wearing, he looks like superman" or some random ass conversation that leads nowhere. Not only that, I feel I am wasting energy as somehow I have found that people rarely contribute energy to a conversation, maybe it's just me, but I rarely speak to people who actively contribute energy to the conversation. It's all my energy down the drain, basically a quick way to lose energy, that is why when I decide to socialise, I take breaks in between, because I need to gain back energy and reciprocate when no one reciprocates back. That doesn't MEAN that I never have fun conversations or that there is not allot of fun to be had, surely it's funny to socialise, but also it's not really fulfilling to me, I really do it mainly for the skillset, for becoming more charismatic and to learn, then for the enjoyment of it. Also, it might be that people are more antisocial than ever, always on their phone in the club or wherever, which makes people lack basic empathy and connection, just some empty-headed chicken I am talking to, so even when I seek depth it probably isn't even there. People just use you and take from you if they can, I feel that in a more conscious society we would have more empathy and in fact I would say that during covid we have gone downwards, maybe the vaccine has activated the demon lord hahaha. The isolation let to people no longer know how to connect or something, a viral post is more important then human decency, if someone would get into a fight no one would help everyone would film and post on tiktok. Anyways enough ranting for today, I am still glad I go out there as I learn allot and now and then I meet amazing people so it is great to see that there are some rare diamonds out there. Deeper fulfillment for me is found alone not with random strangers, I rather spend a day in nature or on the beach then socialising in a club or anywhere else. Don't know where this rant is going, but I guess it's better to express yourself then to depress yourself. Enough yapping for today.

@something_else never heard of this before, sounds interesting

@LordFall sounds awesome, where do you host these?

@caspex interesting take, I never looked at it that way, I will think about it

To assume that we are always blind and understand very little seems like the healthiest frame to come from, at least for me. I have seen many blind spots in myself and in many spiritual people and teachers. Things that may seem small, insignificant, or not worth mentioning can still lead to huge problems. It is often the small belief that seems innocent, the small thought that appears harmless and is 80% correct, that eventually harms us deeply. If we assume that we are not fully knowledgeable, that we have many blind spots because we have agendas, because we have selective focus, because we try to see only the good in what we stand for rather than being nuanced and recognizing that we might be wrong, we might be right, or we might be half wrong and half right, then we become more careful. There is no judge at the end of the day who can definitively say, “THIS IS RIGHT” or “THIS IS WRONG.” We are not in a courtroom; we are in a mysterious world with more mysteries than answers. If we cannot see the nuance, especially in our own thinking, then we become vulnerable to subtle traps, traps that even enlightened teachers can fall into. This happens no matter how advanced you are. You are still blind in many ways. You are still operating through this reptilian brain that seeks to optimize survival, and it does not hesitate to use spirituality to further its survival. In fact, spirituality can become a fantastic tool for it. The enemy is always wrong, but is that really true? If you are against Trump, is he always wrong? Of course not. There are good things Trump has done, but many people only want to see things from a black-and-white perspective. This is human nature. It is not necessarily something we can completely overcome, but rather something we should be aware of and careful with. Especially as a teacher, because power corrupts easily. Any form of power can corrupt you, and as a teacher or leader of any kind, you have a huge influence. Is that influence leading toward good or not? Many times, power leads to good outcomes for you personally, but that does not mean it leads to good outcomes holistically for everyone.

@Ziran sure I am not against that description

@Ziran maybe a bit exaggerated, but is it? I mean if I tell someone everything is one. Now they walk around like everything is one and they are God. BUT you also are human with many human issues like the need to survive and it using its new found ego as God, to help with survival even better. This is very small and subtle and hard to even explain, because in a sense you are still God, but also you are human and blinded by your brain that is optimized for survival. This is the number one mistake I see in spiritual teachings that create all kinds of problems, but it isn't obvious; it's quite subtle.

@Ziran it´s like science, one small mistake and the whole thing explodes

@No1Here2c you win

@No1Here2c Great, don´t be disappointed when your wallet is empty... it wasn´t me, it was Leo. Is this the password of your crypto account? lol

Is this the password of your crypto account? lol

Most teachings around spirituality are a bit the same. Basically `I AM` resting in that awareness, isness. You are God, that is the teaching, you are awareness itself, not the body, mind or ego. Although this is quite factual, in the sense that you are connected to God and that when you rest in awareness and be in your being state, that you access higher consciousness. That doesn´t mean now you have no human limitations anymore. The problem with the teachings as of now, is that it is an easy bypassing of all human things. Not just making money, what is an obvious one, but what I see in spiritual people I have been around that follow these teachings, is that everything is a sign, everything is connected, everything is one, everything is perfect, SO I don´t have to focus on this or that or sus or so. You don't have to work on that trauma, you don't have to work on your narcissistic or codependent tendencies, you don't have to focus on improving your communication or relationships. You don´t have to focus on making money, cause its ego and your not the ego you are I AM. Yet God is not gonna make money for you, make you survive, that is all up to you as a human self, because even tho you ARE in reality not human, you still HAVE a human body, a human mind, a human ego to protect the mind and body. So the problem I see with the teachings around nonduality is that they create a sweet escape, but that some things in life shouldn´t be escaped, unless you want to escape life altogether and die, but that is not what I think most people want. So as long as you want to live in this body, you will have to acknowledge that you do have a mind, body, ego and that its going nowhere anytime soon. So we can care all the time if I come from ego or not, but that is a pointless game, cause you are coming from ego anyways, even when we think we don´t, the escapism towards nonduality in itself is ego, you think God, consciousness itself would care if you are enlightened or not? No only you care, because you don't want to suffer, you want to escape, you want to not deal with your problems. And if everything is already perfect, one, God, then what is the point of dealing with your problems, you have transcended them and your human life doesn't matter anyway, cause your God. See, that is how nonduality fools you, it makes your ego, human body and human mind things to be transcended instead of to work with. In fact, it will deem it as evil, but if it were truly evil, then we should all kill ourselves now. What I think is more evil is act like you're dead and just living in the "I AM" your now consciousness and then being unaware that you have a body, mind and ego. Then you get some type of God complex where you think no human limitations matter to you, you are above that petty game, you are now high conscious, you can just attract it, manifest what you want, you can just call upon angels or your higher self for anything you need. I AM NOT GONNA DO ANYTHING, the universe provides! Well, even if that La La Land story were true, you would still be stuck in this human vessel, you still have to go to the toilet, go do the dishes, get groceries, eat, sleep, repeat, all that human stuff. You think a God makes grocery lists?? So I think its time for everyone, including me, to get off their high horse, just cause your having the capability to access higher consciousness, doesn't mean you are a walking, living God and that now with your newfound enlightenment you are invincible. You cannot even get to talk with a toothache, a small tiny tooth could trouble you all week and still you believe you are a walking living God? If you get sick, you have to go to the hospital to get help, you couldn't help yourself and you claim to be a God? No, we can access God, connect to God, be one with God, but if you truly wanted to be one with God all the time, in every moment, you should be dead as only a dead men is truly without ego, body and mind.

Lately I have been working really hard and my work involves allot of communication, I am talking with many people and I recently had a breakthrough in my charisma, at least what I noticed. Yet its hard for me to pinpoint what exactly it is, as it´s something that came naturally through loads of interactions. Some things are best that come natural and not just from some forced technique. What I would describe as what happened was that I was able to just relax more, maybe the mix of being tired from all the work as well as the constant social interactions, made me have 0 thoughts and just speak my mind unfiltered. You know when something is terrible, and you can´t just stop laughing, because it´s so awful, maybe you embarrassed yourself awfully or a situation is just hopeless that it makes you laugh and see the funny side of the situation or the moment. That is kind of how I have been feeling, not taking anything seriously and seeing how ridiculous life is and can be. I think thats the best state for me atleast to be charismatic, is having 0 thoughts and seeing everything as funny, not forcing it to be funny, but genuinely see how horribly funny life is, including yourself, like how you are trying stuff and failing, it´s just hilarious, like for me, I try a bunch of new stuff and fail so much, that it becomes hilarious and that laughter makes me relax and speak with more charisma and be naturally more funny. This is what I think has been my mini breakthrough this week, but I would love to hear from others what their version of charisma is and their definition of charisma. P.S. One more thing I would say is that I had less pressure on myself both less financial stress as I was working more and also less pressure to do my best, so instead of trying, it was more like I was just winging it. If that makes any sense. Pressure and being a try hard isn´t really the best way to unleash your charisma. I feel like winging it, just give it a shot, not even considering the outcome worked so well for me. If you fail it´s a joke; if it works great as well, no performance pressure whatsoever.

I think everyone consciously or unconsciously has a belief that fame makes you happy or at least feel successful. As someone who performs for many people every week, I can tell you that being famous is so superficial. It's like your parents applauding for you flushing down the toilet, if that makes any sense. Like good boy or girl, you flushed the toilet, now we clap for you. Now the worst thing is that nobody knows you truly, so they only know you from your performance, so they clap for your performance, that doesn´t mean they love you, it doesn´t even mean they like you, it means just an applause for whatever you do. Now even if you made people cry in a full stadium, that doesn´t make them know you at all, its just a projection of who you are that is misplaced. They put you on a pedestal, when you're just a normal guy or girl. So truely its always on a very superficial level and it doesn´t even feel like its you, even if it is you, even if its authentically you, you are aware that social proof and your positioning is the only reason why they are reacting the way they do, if you would be a homeless junkie they would spit on you, its all because of your positioning and if you would position yourself differently they would act completly differently to you. So what is the goal of aiming for fame? If the fame leads to purpose or money, sure, then it makes sense, but for the sake of fame alone, that doesn't make any sense, because the validation is just empty encouragement. Chasing validation is like chasing an empty cloud, it brings you nothing, at least not in the happiness or inner fulfillment level. My best performance, everyone cheering, clapping, giving me positive feedback etc. At the end I went to bed feeling almost disassociated with myself, like they were clapping for who I presented myself to be (aka performance) not for me. These people would be the same people who would laugh at me if I failed, who would ignore me if I didn't have any social proof and who wouldn't care if I lived or died, only because I got social proof, the right positioning and a good performance, they "love" me. What is not me at all, it's just a few minutes of a quick impression of my performance, not a 10-hour-long deep talk, talking deeply about the depths of me or whatever they want to get to know about me. Anyways thats enough about me hahaha, just wanted to share this for someone that is chasing empty fame consciously or unconsciously and give you a heads up of what it feels like. Don't chase a high, do it for the money or for a purpose.

@TruthFreedom beautifully said, yes, and it´s easy to get self-conscious as well, until you start to see the humor in it.

@LastThursday exactly not being stuck in your own head and being in a flow or letting it flow out naturally without resistance towards what comes out of your mouth and how that will be recieved by others. Thank you for sharing.

Watch this serie on youtube, I used to follow this guy for a long long time. Now I am finally over it after this serie came on and the truth got revealed. Truth always wins and here is the truth finally. Finally these clowns are being shown for who they really are. Never trust a guy that tells you he is one with everything, consciousness, but yet critisizes everyone around them. Bentinho Massaro has been doing so much unconscious stuff in the name of consciousness. That is why I called out gurus, as they get a free pass to be in their ego out of the name of being a `reflection` of you. Nobody asked you for advice or for healing them, but instead you decided to critisize and make people feel inferior to you, because nobody could reach your enlightened stage, your followers are always `below` enlightenment. Its like a pyramid scheme, being conscious is not that you are teaching everyone to be more perfect then you, its just about getting closer to God the truth, but you will never reach God, you will only come close to unity, consciousness, but to be in complete unity, the ego and body has to completly die, aslong as your alive your a little better then a monkey and Bentinho has been showing nothing but monkey behaviour behind the scenes. Its better to be honest about how much of a flawed monkey you are, then to supress it and look perfect in the public, yet be awful in private as that side has to come out somewhere and whatever you supress will come out as it did with Bentinho and this is why we hear these awful stories about popes and priests constantly cause they supress for the name of perfection. I think its time for a revolution, not downward, but upward. A time to say, its enough with all of these flawed teacher, lets hear about the people that are honest about their mistakes and tell the whole world how flawed they are, but how they are getting closer to God. This is why I appreciate Justin Bieber, because atleast he has been honest about his flaws and own them, that is real strength, healing, confidence and to me that is more holy then the facade that these gurus put on. Also what does this teach their followers? To aim for perfection aswell what is truely impossible? This guy expects you to meditate all day and allign yourself and anything will be fine, give me a break. If alligning yourself means to sign NDA's and stealing your followers money while using them for sex in the name of healing and devotion, then you should have told that in your teachings hahahahahahahaha. Instead of talking about allignment, talk about how you setup a cult hahahaha. To not make this a complete hate message I want to say that I did learn some stuff of him, but that doesn't give him ANY audacity to then hide behind the facade of a guru. I want to see a world where we drop the facades and be authentic, real and honest, that is where REAL growth happens, not this fake perfectionistic growth, that is trying to aim for something that isn't real. We are all human monkeys when we embrace that we are flawed, we will actually become close to God, because God is truth, God is not hiding behind a facade, God is one, but that doesn't make you God, because you don't decide when the sun goes up or down. I am excited about seeing some real teachers, my intuition was right to take a step back from all these "sinless, perfect" gurus. Fuck em.

@Mellowmarsh Bentinho is just preparing you for any type of abuse, financially, sexually, whatever he wants.

@Lila9 thank you for sharing this, this is exactly what I meant by God complex and spiritual ego. As the disregard of ego and everything being one, makes you blind to more nuanced things like good versus evil and then a guru can do all kinds of evil in the name of nonduality.

yep, as with Bentinho and probably many more gurus. Giving them that enlightenment sex, for their spiritual growth. Lol

@LordFall Sure, that is why I said to do it for money or purpose. Having attention can still be valuable in business or in terms of purpose. There are also ways to make money without fame, so it isn’t necessarily true that you have to chase fame to make money. Saying it’s phenomenal is dragging it; it’s useful. If you say it’s amazing, that mainly comes from some narcissistic tendency, loving being the center of attention and in the spotlight more than being happy. In my opinion and experience its better to chase purpose or money, if you are gonna chase anything at all. Stage green isn't too bad, too many people are stuck in stage orange or lower. If you want to bring people up, you should bring them up to stage yellow.

@Hojo Maybe if you had 100 friends applauding you, it would feel like something special, but who has 100 friends? And if they aren’t friends, why do you want a stranger to clap for you? It might sound like love, but it’s just a high, like going on a roller coaster. It might give you adrenaline, but it doesn’t give you happiness, and it wears off fast as well. A stranger will clap for you one moment and throw a tomato at you the next. They don’t know you; it’s only a projection onto you, projecting either good or bad, or whatever lies in between, onto you. If you are a vegetarian, everyone claps. If you turn into a hardcore cannibal, they will throw tomatoes at you. It’s superficial.

I think we should all sleep, tomorrow is a new day to fight again with each other lol

@Willy Phallicus rather until death brings us together lol
