@khalifa I feel you, but I noticed that people need to have A LOT of awareness of their mind. Unchecked mind + psychedelics can really fuck you up and you can do bad things to yourself. But I noticed that if you have good awareness on your thoughts you can trip really well. Just start low and work your way up with time.

Do a test - breathe without pauses and see how long can you do it. If you notice this kind of breathing is not sustainable, you'll get tired. Do pauses 2 seconds atleast. The breath should be calm and relaxing

1st awakening: Asked myself really deep how it was all created and somebody answered it inside my head that I'am God. That shooked me to my core. That made me realize what mystical experiences are.

Buy the book list. There are books on Kriya

@SQAAD There is a funny thing about yoga which you will read and probably experience yourself. The book mentions that sometimes your inner guru will guide you through the practices. And believe me the inner guru comes! On your best days you might sit, do the excercise and feel that some kind of intuition is guiding you through the excercise, showing you how to do it, and also don't ressist this let the guru do its thing. It will control your body, change the technique in the best way for you. Kinda feels like God is taking control of your body and showing you how to do yoga, the inner guru knows whats best for you. I had this experience, my wife also had some inner guru lessons, and I saw it in action on my wife, once I saw her doing something unordinary I was like "please just let it guide you and don't ressist it" when she was done I asked "were you in control?" She answered "YES wtf was that" and I instantly aknowledged that she had been in the zone where this inner guru takes power. Its kinda ridiculious to hear this, once I read it I was like ok kinda get the idea that I do how I wanna do it, but once it happens you just know that this is the time to let go and let it guide you. But the guru doesnt come everyday. Once in a while, but the first time that can come up quickly to let you know that it is with you. Its a proccess of trial and error, I still keep perfecting my forms everyday. Keep at it and you will learn on your own.

@SQAAD I will spoil you with one of the books in Leo's book list on Kriya, but this one is foundational. It's "Kriya Secrets Revealed by J.C. Stevens" This is a technique book to learn how to do Kriya Yoga. Starts from the most basic of exercises and later it grows into more potent techniques once you master the starting ones. You will thank yourself for starting to do Yoga, I didn't believe it myself, but now I'am very serious about the benefits that yoga brings, they are just outstanding. The hard part for you, if you buy this book, will be starting a habit for doing Kriya yoga. You will resist for a bit, but if you do yoga I guarantee in two weeks you will notice real growth in your base line of awareness. Yoga helped me reach and MAINTAIN permanent non-dual state of awareness. I was also skeptical at first about the whole Yoga thing, but wow is it powerful, no wonder Leo talked about it, he only shares the strongest consciousness practices. Also keep doing your meditation, Yoga will even supercharge it!

@peanutspathtotruth Don't misunderstand opinion with genuine advice.

@SQAAD I started doing yoga and in two weeks with newbie techniques I gained more consciousness growth than meditation doing meditation for a couple of months. Actually even yogis are saying that meditation is shit. It's just letting your mind wonder off and trying to catch it. You need to spiritually cleanse your BODY which what meditation can't do. Of course your mind can be sharp from meditation, but your body wont be clear of energy blockages. So think for yourself what is more important. Don't leave your body behind, it also goes for the ride to wherever you go.

Do yourself a favor and start doing yoga for the rest of your life. Meditation alone is really weak of a practice. Kriya yoga is way way more powerful

Reincarnation is said to work like this: You die and you are reborn as something new. That's kinda true in one sense, but reincarnation is a bit different. The thing with reincarnation is that you are right now reincarnating in everyone simultaneously at this moment! Ta-daaa. But why are you - you and I'am - me? Its because one human-being has it's own memory which the consciousness is bound to being aware of and thus creating one experience at a time. Plain consciousness has no memory it just is only conscious/aware. Consciousness is the eyes of God looking and being aware of the experience which you ultimately are. A God who is thinking that he is a little human born to this world. That's the magic of it, once you experience a number of awakenings you understand that You forgot who you actually are. Ultimately - God forgot that he is God.

I don't know if there is such a thing as full enlightenment. Will tell you if I get there. For me there are just awakenings, several of them, stronger than the previous one, more clear than the previous one, more truth than the previous one and so on to infinity.

Well yeah the earth is likely creating mass. Volcanoes always erupt creating islands, do you think the earth inside is getting hollow? How come we can find dinosaur bones beneath several meters of ground. Where did that ground come from? The earth is getting bigger, no one knows why, but thats the magic of this reality. Also there is no material matter in this universe. It's just mind matter, which is something else.

You should be only concerned about your consciousness. Wisdom plays so little when the time comes.

You are God. God controlling the body that you recognize yourself as.

There is a self. And that self must catch itself with itself. To explain it simply is that the ultimate YOU is just consciousness, and it must become conscious of what consciousness is and there you go, you cought yourself using yourself. Its suuuuper tricky. You will need to develop more consciousness to understand this. Its not hard, just takes time. Basicly you can understand anything in this galaxy if you have enough consciousness, if you cant grasp what is the self that means your base awareness/consciousness is not high enough to grasp it! Continue doing your consciousness work and when it rises the understanding will come!

Do so called parents exist? In a biological way - yes. But they are also the truth not understanding it thinking that they are a dad or a mom. Please share insights about this topic

I mean they are IT, they are God creating more God, but they arent conscious that they are God so they pretend to be parents (lost in the illusion that there is such a thing as parents). This blew my mind off. I just wanted to know more about this.

Leo can you upload your own video blog posts mp3 files to podcast-addict/itunes app? You have some profound posts there that I would re-listen over and over to connect the dots. Thanks!

Just build up your consciousness, start doing yoga asap. Every insight you get comes from consciousness, the more conscious you become the more you understand/see. Psychedelics are good, but if you don't have a good base of consciousness to start with you will get nowhere. While tripping you may feel non-duality etc. but once it wares off you are just a tiny ego with knowledge (which is not permanent) you need to build up consciousness to the point where you are in permanent non-dual awareness without any substances in the body. Key point for you - work on developing your sober state consciousness.

It's totally normal. I've gotten some ego backlashes as well... Three weeks of yoga led me to huge growth and boom I'm off binge smoking weed for two weeks + stopped doing yoga and fell back even lower. That's some REAL growth right here! Kryia practice is SUPER potential and SUPER strong even for beginners. I would recommend to do it every second day, and on your off days just do a simple breathing meditation. I've noticed that doing Kriya everyday does grow you A LOT, but damn you just can't handle so much change and growth so you just fall back. Just take it slow. Just notice how subtly you wanna go back to your old habits, if you can just pain yourself through, but take it easy cause you have no idea how powerful the ego actually is.

If you dont understand what God is, don't beat yourself too hard. Focus on improving your consciousness! Consciousness is kinda infinite and it comes in low and high forms. Its not that you cant or will not understand God, the problem is that your consciousness is too low for these things. If you keep improving it you will eventualy understand it! It will click for you if you raise it to a certain level. And you can always go beyond! You can understand everything in life. What God is, what are you, what is reality, what are you doing here etc. Consciousness leads to understanding.

Guys try to be exceptionally aware when you do the practices on a full moon evening. Moons gravity pulls your kundalini up. And all sorts of interesting things can happen. Have you ever had an inner guru guiding you to do your practice in a different way?? I had it and that feels amazing. You are just sitting and feeling a force controling the body. Almost as if the force is teaching you new stuff, showing what you need. When you feel like you need to do something new, go fully into it, relax and let it guide you, just be aware and dont ressist it. It comes unnoticed and it leaves like it wasnt even there.

Enlightenment doesn't banish all evil which is inside you cause you can be a little enlightened with a lot of unresolved shadow elements. So was Osho in that boat. Believe me when you have so much power and so many followers it's hard to stay humble and not to manipulate people for your deep deep ego needs like sex.

This process is full of shit, believe me. You will have to go through a lot of phases where you feel totally groundless and lost. But this is a part of the process so stay calm. I went through it myself and I'm kinda groundless a bit NOW. But I just got used to it after a while, actually feeling groundless is the best indicator that you are doing good and that will lead to growth in the future. It will bridge both worlds on it's own. Stay strong and good luck my brother.
