  1. Asking girls before kissing them?
    Asking girls before kissing them?
    @Mada_ There is no such need.
    All you need is to make direct eye contact and move your body/face within a foot of her's. If she doesn't hold eye contact or tries to lean away, she's not receptive. If she gives you puppy-dog eyes, then that's your green light.
    One final trick is to slowly brush her hair to the side with your fingers, and slowly run your fingers down her jaw line. If she flinches, she's not receptive and do not kiss her. If she maintains eye contact then she definitely wants to be kissed.
    Really, it's all about the eye contact. Look at her erotically in the eyes and hold it steady. If she maintains it, it's on boy!
    Another trick is if you go in for the kiss and she refuses it by leaning away. You brush it off as though nothing bad happened and try again 5-10 mins later. Keep trying even if she is resisting. Eventually she should relent.
    It's also important to time the moment. The mood has to be right. The best time to go for a kiss is after you've made her laugh. When she's in a good mood, she'll be much more receptive.
    Also, don't make it a big deal. Don't make it some formal, stiff thing. The mood has to be light and casual so there is no nervousness or awkwardness about it.
    When you go for the kiss, decide on it and commit 100%. The worst thing you can do is be seconding-guessing yourself in your mind and half-assing it. Just assume that she wants it and that it will succeed. Don't be playing images of failure in your mind.
    If a girl is on a date with you, she's already agreed in her mind that she is willing to sleep with you. Otherwise she would have never agreed to the date in the first place. So all you gotta do is not be awkward or creepy.
    You need to build comfort and ease by doing lots of touching throughout the date. Then kissing is easy and natural. It is awkward and creepy when you go for half the date without a single touch. Get your hands around her body ASAP. You gotta be finding excuses to touch her all throughout the date. Tickle her and so forth in a playful way to break the ice.
    And finally, if you wanna use words, rather than asking, the better way is to declare it: "You look yummy. I feel like kissing you now." You must say it in a way where you are not fishing for her permission but stating your genuine desire and intention.

  2. Is it true that this Universe wants the best for us?
    Is it true that this Universe wants the best for us?
    To survive as a self! Suffering is the resistance of the self to dissolution.
    If you didn't suffer, you'd literally die and become God.
    Suffering is the activity you invented to keep yourself from merging with God!
    Ta-da!
    Clever devil, eh?

  3. Why there can only be one God
    Why there can only be one God
    Amazingly numerical infinities have various sizes.
    Watch the video, Understanding Absolute Infinity - Part 2, where the work of Georg Cantor is explained.
    Absolute Infinity is not the same as a numerical infinity. Absolute Infinity doesn't have a size. It is simply reality itself.

  4. Is it true that this Universe wants the best for us?
    Is it true that this Universe wants the best for us?
    The universe is not indifferent.
    But also the universe has much bigger plans than merely keeping every being physically safe.
    The universe prioritzes freedom above physical safety.
    The reason you're not understanding it is because you're trying to understand the selfless mind of God using your selfish mind. That cannot work. Your view of death and suffering is biased by the ego's hatred and fear of both. God doesn't hate, so this is not part of God's ultimate design.
    To understand God you must stop hating and fearing things.

  5. Countries by Spiral Dynamics Level of Development?
    Countries by Spiral Dynamics Level of Development?
    @Synchronicity But they are not equal. The conservative value set is lower consciousness. A conservative's sense of self is denser and fear greater. A conservative's cognitive and moral development are objectively lower and less truthful.
    Be careful with false equivalencies and splitting all issues down the middle.
    The mid point between slavery and anti-slavery is still backwards.
    None of this makes liberals immune to ignorance or self-deception. But relative to conservatives they are 1 stage higher.
    Note: remember, these are relative evaluations, not absolute. Spiral Dynamics is a relative model. But politics is a relative matter so it fits.

    What's the deal with the moralization of sexuality?
    I notice you guys still have not penetrated (excuse the pun) the issue of survival as talked about in my 2 part survival series.
    Stuff like using sex for pleasure is still survival! Survival is not just about making babies. Survival is about maintaining your self. The desire for intimacy, romance, and companionship is all survival.
    If a thing in life has any importance to you, you can be sure it's tied to your survival in some elaborate way.
    If a thing was irrelevant to your survival, you would not be talking about it, much less having a strong opinion about it.
    Opinions and emotions are survival.

  7. Reality, suffering and the shadow (Trip Insights)
    Reality, suffering and the shadow (Trip Insights)
    @Socrates Good work! Finally some progress with you
    The shadow is simply all those aspects of the universe (self) which you have denied in order to maintain a limited human ego self. Yes, to fully embrace yourself as the whole universe you must now re-own those denied aspects of yourself. So that you may finally be complete. You must unify all the divisions your mind has created since your birth. For most people this is a difficult process because there is so much of the universe they have hated and demonized for so long. Now it must be admitted that all that hatred and demonetization was self-hatred and falsehood.

  8. Where Are Other Peoples Thoughts Located?
    Where Are Other Peoples Thoughts Located?
    Of course. You're not awake enough.
    Yes, that's imagination happening, creating a relative sense of space.
    You are using the mind to compare thing A to thing B and then taking that difference as space. But where is that "space" located? Nowhere. Nowhere is infinite, so it is everywhere, giving the illusion of space. But there is no elsewhere but HERE and NOW. All places are NOW yet nowhere, thus allowing an infinite number of hidden dimensions to reality. Since everywhere is nowhere, all beings can be tucked away inside it, so to speak.
    There can literally be an infinite number of universes taking place right on top of each other, so to speak. Since they are all nowhere. That's the beauty of nowhere: it is unlimited.
    Reality is like a pair of pants with an infinite number of pockets
    Absolute Consciousness cannot be doubted. When you get there, you'll understand. Until you do, you won't.
    5-MeO-DMT is good for realizing nowhere.

  9. Question for Leo or other smart people
    Question for Leo or other smart people
    You incarnate as all people. So in the end, you win and lose everything. You are reality experienced from every angle. One of those angles is your current angle. You can't have all possible angles without your particular angle.

    Eventually you'll understand all of reality, how and why it was created, how to live properly, and you will transcend physical death.

  11. Non-dual Morality
    Non-dual Morality
    To make a long story short: consciousness & love is the answer to all moral questions.
    You cannot fake consciousness or love. You act from your current level of consciousness, whatever that is. No amount of moralizing, theory, ideals, or ideology will change that. If you want to act better, raise your consciousness.
    The less self you have, the more loving you will be. If you want to be more moral, deconstruct your self until nothing of you remains.
    You cannot have a self and be moral at the same time.

    That's ok, this gives you an opportunity to start observing your thoughts. 
    First, notice they are not your thoughts. They just appear in the field of consciousness or, as one would say, out of nowhere. As a thought appears, you watch it pass as you'd watch a dog pass in the park or a cloud passing in the sky. 
    Secondly, as you observe your thoughts, do it without identifying with them or assigning labels to them, like 'the dog big, brown, slow, that person's', 'cloud white, fluffy', etc. In other words, observe reality without conceptualizing it.
    Thirdly, notice the space between your thoughts, or when you first wake up and have a blank mind. That space/no-mind (no-self) zone/the observer is what your true nature is. A.k.a. awareness, God, the Absolute, Void, No-thing, Enlightenment, etc.
    You can become directly conscious of it with practice.

    @Nic Terpstra How about you actually do the work?
    Nobody is gonna make sense of reality for you. That's your job. How about a few years of serious research, reading, careful contemplation, and basic meditative technique?
    You're barking up the biggest tree in the universe. So don't be surprised if it doesn't all make sense for the first decade. Having it all make sense is the end-result of decades of work.
    It's like you've just entered 1st grade and tell the teacher: "Okay, I'm ready for this. Tell me everything I need to know." That will take 12 years kid.

  14. Where Are Other Peoples Thoughts Located?
    Where Are Other Peoples Thoughts Located?
    Everything is located in one place: literally nowhere.
    Space and time are imaginary.
    Right now you are nowhere. You've been in this nowhere for your whole life. You will be in this nowhere FOREVER! You cannot escape nowhere because there is nowhere else to go but nowhere, and you're already there. You've been nowhere FOREVER.
    The trick is becoming conscious of this fact.

  15. What's the deal with the moralization of sexuality?
    What's the deal with the moralization of sexuality?
    Practically, that is how human sexuality works. Since sexuality is a survival function its value is of course purely relative and imaginary.
    Why is sex valuable to males and females? Ultimately for no reason whatsoever other than to advance the self. You don't go sticking your dick into tree holes because it does not advance your self. If it did, you'd do it and pay money for it. And tree holes would suddenly be worth a lot of money. There would be armed guards around every tree hole to ensure money is collected and the holes are not damaged (so more money could be collected in the future).
    Just observe how sex works. You'll see it's transactional. Sex is a transaction between two beings who have certain needs which they want met.
    By raising your consciousness high enough to realize that survival is an illusion and unimportant in the absolute sense. Survival is a relative matter. True morality is the transcendence of the need to survive. When you no longer care about whether you survive or not, then you have become truly moral. Otherwise you are a devil.

    Who's Interested In Conscious Politics?
    That is of course a very good point.
    All progress is relative to one's past position.
    But still, China's authoritarian features are hard to ignore. They have some serious structural problems. Chinese people cannot even vote! That is not sustainable and that is not conscious.
    That is thanks to the power of holistic big picture thinking. It's precisely because I don't over-specialize in any one field that I am able to see a much bigger picture than most experts and professors. Specialization comes at the cost of wisdom and vision. I sacrifice technical accuracy for big picture understanding. Experts and professionals do the opposite.
    Politics cannot really be understood properly without a deep understanding of epistemology, ideology, cults, metaphysics, nondualty, spirituality, consciousness, philosophy, sociology, psychology, science, religion, language, ego, devilry, Spiral Dynamics, developmental psychology, relativism, and history.
    Rather than reading a lot of political theory, I spend a lot of time studying human beings, especially their collective behaviors. If you do that long enough without being ideological yourself, you will start to see how the whole game works. It's all about the mind clinging to various positions and refusing to acknowledge the bias and partiality of its own perspective. Without a deep understanding of epistemology there cannot be a deep understanding of politics.
    By that logic, why should you raise a family? Why should you start a work project? Why should you start a video game? Why should you drive to the grocery store? Why should you start having sex?
    Just as you're about to pull your dick out to have sex an airplane might crash through your roof and kill you.
    Maybe you should just curl up into a little ball in the corner of your room and wait for death to take you?
    There is never any guarantee that hard work will payoff before you die.
    If you're asking, "But what's in it for me?!!!" you've already fallen into the greatest trap: selfishness.

    The whole point of spiritual work is to overcome fear by facing it.
    Consciousness transcends fear and suffering.

    She is certainly ridiculed and dismissed for the most part.
    She will not resonate with stage Blue or Orange people.
    But also to be fair, I think she's not really cut out for being President. Presidency requires political experience. A person with zero government experience is going to be naive and make obvious mistakes no matter how well developed they are. Development and consciousness alone are not enough to make a great political leader.

    That's where spirituality intersects with life purpose. Your LP should be about helping mankind raise consciousness in whatever way you find more meaningful. That could be through film, social media, writing, music, art, business, politics, education, engineering, or whatever.
    The most important thing for now is to educate yourself further. A deep study should be made of Conscious Politics before you run off to start some political or social revolution.
    Once you do that AND you find your LP, then your whole life will be making an impact and helping to elevate people.

    They could, but it's a dicey affair. It all depends on exact circumstances and your personal preparedness.
    I still think it's better than sitting on your couch all day watching YT videos.

    Notice how Marianne Williamson is ridiculed as a hippie New Ager by the mainstream press and pundits.
    That's how people ahead of their time are treated by the mouth-breathing masses.
    She is certainly not electable today. And why is that? Because the level of consciousness of the majority of voters is too low to appreciate the level she is speaking from. So it will take a few hundred years of social evolution before her ideas become accepted as obvious and mainstream. In the meantime, over 10 million people will have to die for that lesson to be learned.
    And the biggest mindfuck of it all will be: once her ideas are accepted as totally obvious, no one in that future generation will believe that it could have been any other way. They will take it all for granted.

    If it advances any faster it will burn up in the atmosphere.
    You have to realize that this has been a very long-term project from the very beginning. Amazing stuff is coming. But you must stick around for years to see it all unfold.
    Everything up to this point has been a warm up lap.
    It will all make sense in retrospect.

  23. Why the hell do we talk about this?
    Why the hell do we talk about this?
    I really don’t understand why or how we even talk about matters of consciousness, God, existence, etc. I get the importance of the matter but in the end, nobody gets it. Nobody understands. It threatens people. It seems to create more division get people’s panties in a twist. It creates debate. 
    Personally im really struggling to be authentic in my communication with others. How do I just ignore the stuff that I’m learning as a result of this work and simultaneously be honest and thus not have it effect people. I feel like this just creates more conflict and im tired of conflict. 
    This seems to be the tragic part of this work. You come out the forest with gold and it turns to ashes. 
    I can have some inspiring vision of raising the consciousness of mankind for example but what actually happens? Either a bunch of people just get deluded by the teachings, taking it totally for granted, nobody gets it, and you’re persecuted. 
    Keep in mind, I don’t want to paint myself as some innocent victim soul. I do acknowledge I don’t communicate this stuff the most skillfully. Communication skills aren’t my highest gift AT ALL. 
    I just feel like this begs the question though of why not just keep this to yourself? I’m starting to feel like the people who stay quiet are the real intelligent ones.

    You're clearly an advanced practitioner. That is great. Which is why I am nudging you to go one step further. Do not stop until you have a direct consciousness of why Creation is happening.
    See my next blog video where I will explain it. But as you know, no explanation can do these things justice. You must discover it for yourselves. All I can do is tell you that I've done it and that it is possible and highly worthwhile.
    Keep questioning:
    Why life?
    Why life?
    Why life?
    What is the purpose?
    What is the point?
    Why is it like this?
    Why creation?
    Why is God doing this?
    What is God up to?
    Why life?
    Why form?
    Why humans?
    Why animals?
    Why evolution?
    Why all of this?
    What the fuck is it for?
    Why life?!!!!
    I must know! I will not stop until I know!

  25. Who's Interested In Conscious Politics?
    Who's Interested In Conscious Politics?
    I don't find that to be true.
    1) Research shows that conservatives are consistently more closedminded than liberals. Conservatives are generally not interested in exploring other POVs. Liberals are more open to that and more tolerant of other perspectives. Of course not always so. Many liberals also become dogmatic. And many liberals especially hate conservatives and therefore misunderstand them.
    2) Spiral Dynamics research shows that conservatives are lower in their cognitive and moral development than liberals.
    I agree that we need more mutual understanding of all perspectives. Which is why I spend a lot of time studying conservative perspectives. But conservatives almost never do that. When was the last time you saw a conservative reading a book on Marxism or Feminism? It's laughable. They would never do that.
    It's not that conservatives merely disagree with socialism or post-modernism, for example. They fundamentally do not know what socialism or post-modernism is. Even highly educated conservatives like Jordan Peterson, who is a professor, do not have enough intellectual curiosity and objectivity to understand socialism or post-modernism. Liberalism correlates positively with higher education. Which is why conservatives like to ridicule and demonize universities and academia.
    I agree that most leftists do not understand the right wing to their core. But the right wing understands leftism even worse. Just go watch Fox News to see the proof.
