I guess everyone's path is unique and different. But all roads to lead to Rome. My path wasn't easy - but the suffering, the trials and tribulations- didn't come in the form of trying to awake. They came from my own selfishness in life. Actually waking up was not a process. I don't believe it should be either. It is not something you attain as the ego - because that is using the ego's will and it is using brute force. Awakening doesn't happen like this. It honestly has to happen naturally. But again- that was my path. Yes I did experience no self. I died. And I came back. It was a ride that guaranteed no return trip. I was not able to function in the world for days after - and how my sense of self returned at all is not known to me. Perhaps because there was more to do here. What that is, at my age, I do not know. I can only assume it is the attachments which I still hold dear.

I think it's because of what you said. That the dream state is not as strong. But yes also because in the waking dream it just comes natural to me. In my night time dreams there is an awareness- a meta awareness which i have here, that is simply not present there. So perhaps there, like you said, I would need to put forth the conscious effort. Here, there is no need for that.

The ego's final defense mechanism - and the walls seem unbreachable. But you take fear out of the equation with ignorance. So forget all that you have learned about spirituality - and sit and self inquire. Do that with a curiosity to know what lies beyond

Have you been successful at lucid dreaming? It's kind of a mind blower that we are in a dream right now. It's too shocking. But that's the very mechanism that keeps you asleep. In this dream I am lucid some of the time. But in my night dreams I can never accomplish it. Perhaps because i dont stay assleep long enough - and its not as engrossing. So i guess its a dream of mine to lucid dream at night

Fair enough. You are complicating awakening. Awakening is simple. It is the realization of no self. Life is what is not flowering- it is traumatic and there will be much suffering. But awakening is not that. It is very simple- without suffering- and right under your nose. All you have to do is realize no self. This will open the door to all the other realizations. I still have my doubts. Somewhere along the way the drugs got to his brain. But he will pull it together. Damn. Have you had the no self realization yet.

I'm not really speaking scientifically I am talking about what sources the science in fhe first place. And that is God. Which is mystical. What else would it be.

No - it can't. Why do you think Leo is on such an expedition? Fine. If you want to believe that. But I would truly encourage you to sit in self inquiry.

@Javfly33 as long as you are sitting up you can achieve non-localization. I have found that laying down doesn't work. But as long as you sit up- you should be good. The details of the posture mean little.

It changes your state of consciousness but does it break you out of the dream? It doesn't. Because there is only one awakening. Leo still thinks there are many. This is because he has reached enlightened states of consciousness but he has not broken out of the dream. This has to be a natural occurrence

You only feel like you have free will. But the ego does not have control. It is you as God that has control. And trust me, I don't know how, but you have it all figured out The reason your mom isn't interested in non-duality and you are is because you dreamt it like that. That's what I mean by genetics.

Bingo. What do you think God is? God is Absolute Omniscience. Does Absolute Omniscience not include knowing what happens next? Does it not include the creation of time itself? My friend - you have not yet gone deep enough. When you do, you will ultimately find yourself alone. So I do warn you - it may not be something you want.

It's precisely that there AREN'T breaks in consciousness. There is just the illusion that there is. Like sleep. Or unconsciousness. forgetting- now that is a completely separate topic. Forgetting only exists because nothing ever existed to begin with. This will absolutely demolish you if you are not ready. This doesn't mean something exists outside of your direct experience. This means that if you stop thinking about it, it absolutely ceases to exist. So take this to the "external world" now....the external world. That's where forgetting REALLY gets scary. But that's also where it gets extremely powerful.

@An young being personally i just don't think psychedelics will enlighten you. It is completely independent of this. Really self inquiring is the true way. But no one wants to do that.

You are appealing to science but notice- science might just be within consciousness. So if we are asking questions of unconsciousness- perhaps we may not want to appeal to science.

@An young beingThere's never unconsciousness. But you may forget what you dreamt. It is very illusory. It will make you think you slept unconscious. But you were conscious throughout. Forgetting is the miracle that God can do. Leo should make a video just on forgetting. It is a savior. But also it is a nightmare. Depends on how you wish to look at it. Or you can just forget.

You can't stay away but I think spirituality is the last thing you need right now. You have to live your life. Get the heck off here and start living it.

Lol. I love you man. This is some shit. I literally looked at the list of online users, saw your name, and thought of you And then you posted. Hang in there. You have something special- and that is your intuition. Honestly whether you awaken or not doesn't matter. But you will. You will because it's you.

Leo will guide you to awakening. Ralston is worthless for that. But remember to take back your sovereignty after leo does that. It will be the most beautiful thing in the world.

You wanted the Truth. Peter Ralston is exactly right. But whether he is awake or not - that is another matter. But in the end he is nothing more than an invention of the mind. So there's that

There isn't a space between un and related. It's unrelated. There is your moderation.

Back in the day I gave a fuck.

Huh? Speak English for us old dudes. I'm not up with the current hype.

A calculator IS cheating to solve math To want to even look into the pursuit is genetically based.

The actual identity is very mystical. Do you think it forms just by some algorithm? No. It's magical.

Because it is total. When you are not God you are you. When you realize you are God you will become God. This is not where you are in life. In my opinion God realization should not be until your late 40's or 50's.
