Swear I thought he said that too? then I checked, In MGS4 he said war has changed. lol.

@bambi Leo mentioned in a video he has like a whole inventory or file on his PC with a bunch of thumbnails he collected over the years.

@NoSelfSelf What are the Pros and Cons of Conceptual Knowing?

Because of Survival. Watch Leos 2 part video on Understanding survival. The ego is all about control in order to survive. So it fears its own disillusionment.

I second Qigong. I also found semen retention works as well, however can take up to 70-80 days to see anything substantial. The problem with that is wet dreams may occur dropping you back down to day 1.

Future Thinkers Podcast, Daniel Schmachtenberger.

I suppose hit up Elon Musk about doing that one lol.

@WokeBloke No hes not wrong. He said in certain states. The most notable state of possibility of this would be in the dreaming state. Where as this waking state your in now would indeed cease to exist.

@WokeBloke Your asking if I wanted to create a spaceship, this means the appearance of a spaceship. There are a few ways to answer this question. It is based off of the degree of solidity of the appearance of said spaceship, as well as the state of consciousness, and duration of time to do this. Starting with our normal baseline state, If I wanted to instantaneously, I would refer to (example1). a mental image of the spaceship which you too can manifest right now by thinking. This would be a lesser degree of creation of the ship. Remember to keep the stance of consciousness, the "screen/display" When your saying to create something we mean to create an appearance of in our own display, You can see the appearance of the ship in this way. A greater degree would be (example 2) to google image search a spaceship and look at the picture, the spaceship is again appearing in my experience on the screen with slightly more solid appearance. An even greater degree would take more time,(example 3) by beginning a process of constructing materials together and building a ship designed for space and now viewing the appearance in that way. Your assuming from the baseline state of consciousness that we can start off with example 3 without first starting a process of building. This would be a mistake in understanding. How ever if we move into the psychedelic states of consciousness, the ease and speed of the lesser degree of example 1 becomes the same way example 3 becomes possible but only temporarily from your own subjective view point. That level of manifestation is not sustainable at the baseline of normal experience. You have to raise your consciousness to raise its capability to manifest greater degrees of appearances in less time.

@WokeBloke What would "new Universe look like to you? Every moment is already new? It would be indistinguishable. The content of appearances, which is all there is, is already changing. In what way would you recognize a change like that without referring to content, which is already in the process of changing to new things anyway. In a way, you already do this when you experience state changes. Dreaming, Psychedelics. Your question is analogous to a TV screen. You are the screen. The 43in HD TV screen is consciousness the pixels or "Display". You can watch any movie (content) you want, for example waking state content, dreaming state content, psychedelic state content.. Your asking why cant consciousness create a new screen? Lets say to a 55in HD TV. Because there is no difference, display would remain display, there are infinite pixels. same or different content. If you mean universe as in content, your question is already the case.

@WokeBloke From my point of view there is Only perception, I can think of an idea called outside my perception. But its only an idea. There you can see how "oh there is no outside of my perception" From my current location I can imagine you sitting at a desk perhaps on a PC reading the post. But i know thats only a lesser degree of how i can perceive you and may even be an inaccurate representation, but to me its how it is, I am limited to visual and audio representations of you to what appears on my own laptop screen, However, if you were to give me your address I could travel to your location to reduce my limited perception and increase how much of you arises in my perception.

@WokeBloke Your taking it out of context, What Leo is saying is from that omniscient state of consciousness, he probably could answer that question for you if he chose to imagine some kind of remote viewing aspect, However he doesn't live his everyday life from that state. So he couldn't answer it in the way your asking. The states we are talking about happen from specific psychedelics that "grant you access" to special modes of perception.

@Leo Gura Ok yeah I understand. So that state is always ever present, But its a matter of how conscious I become of it. The 5Me0 helped to raise my consciousness enough so that I was able to experience it more clearly. Is it that ego is what is preventing this from being recognized commonly? Is Kriya Yoga a sufficient method for getting feelings right? Would a consecutive methodical use of 5Me0 get a person to have Awakening to be their baseline?

@Leo Gura So Awakening distilled down to its simplest understanding would be that you realize how everything is imagination. Personally I feel i have experiential understanding of this, due to my psychedelic use, how ever the quality of how I feel doesn't match up to how you describe in your video "What does Awakening feel like?" But it DID feel that way after I had 5Me0 HLC version. It didn't completely reconstruct a new reality before my eyes like smoking freebase did, but it did make my mind Crystal Clear, super pleasant mood. Perception was like on High Definition, It feel AWAKE AF but not like in the sense as how stimulants make you feel awake. What your saying is this state I described can become Ones new baseline of experience? That would be Awakening?

@WokeBloke If you refer to the dialog between myself and Leo. I questioned the inner seeing of mental imagery being imagination. So to remove a linguistic understanding of it, since our definitions can become misinterpreted from language, just use your direct observation of it. So for example right now, imagine a baseball. You can see that image in your mind, now what Leo is saying is to expand your definition of what that phenomena means to you to include outer seeing and all of perception as well. The difference being degrees or "solidity" of Imagination.

@Leo Gura Yeah I experienced something similar on 5-Me0. You responded to my question about it awhile back mentioning the facets I experienced. "Infinite Imaginations and God Realization. So the reference to that experience has helped me understand this alot. Would you say the Mystics arent even in that cave at all. They are occupying their own constructed heaven perhaps?

@Leo Gura Holy Shit. Yeah I get it. I would think the sudden increase in my heart rate just now means something. I seeing exactly what your saying. So with awakening all that is dissolved? ones experience then is just pure presence and aware with little to no mental content? The mental chatter too, the inner monologue or subvocalizing is also ego?

@Leo Gura Would it be the ego mind that thinks it is "having" these mental images of thoughts? But they are just spontaneously occurring? There seems to be a reaction to want to "control" mental content sometimes. How can I let this go?

Ok I get it, Would that mean inner seeing may simply be a lesser degree of imagination and the outer seeing be a greater degree? Greater in degree meaning how "solid" it seems? Can the inner seeing affect outer seeing? Ive seen people react to my mental imagery before and it was quite distressing? Any thoughts on this?

@BipolarGrowth Yeah thats the exact substitute word I have been using too. It seems easier to understand since my original reference to imaginary tends to be the "inner seeing" of mental imagery.

@Leo GuraAre the highest levels only sustainable for as long as the psychedelic is in effect anyway?

You were just moving your attention/awareness to those areas. Dont over think it. The psychotic part would be thinking your splitting yourself into parts lol. We do have parts as in modes of perception. You can then focus on those individual sensations of hearing, seeing and feeling. You can say that focus is your sense of yourself or your awareness.

@Rishabh R That approach he mentions here I would also recommend. Observing the distinction between thinking and awareness and observing your behaviors can get you deep into seeing what is happening with your OCD behaviors.

Good, there ya go man. Keep that mindset going and youll be alright.

This makes so much sense!! When one hears You are God, and you say who is God? You hear, "You" are God and you say who am "I"? it makes a circle because your still not sure who "I" is? When we refer to "I" the mind tends to reflect on biographical history or the ego/story at first, then with consistent observation you can see how thats all illusion, there's really nothing there. That emptiness actually is something? Its Infinity. Does then Identity become realized to be totality of experience called Infinity/God? This framing still remains in the conceptual, I get that, but is this intellectually the proper way to understand it? I assume looking at it this way then methodically taking psychedelics and continuing to framing it like that will reveal a new understanding about what is being said? Like you realize it to be True experientially not conceptually?
