@Michael569 Do you eat fish or do you avoid it all together? The coffee i drink inside the plastics is always cold by the way. Sometimes i may buy rice which is in a plastic wrapper and you are supposed to boil it with the wrapper lol. I guess that's a bad idea.

When i buy coffee from a shop they put it in a plastic cup and give you a plastic straw. I've seen from Leo's blog that plastics may cause brain damage. I haven't really researched this issue. Although i try to avoid plastics now as much as i can. But you can't really avoid them too much. There are many food items that are always in plastics. Should i avoid plastics in general? Or isn't so much of an issue? I don't know how much of plastic do i really absorb from all these items. Maybe the amount is not significant to really affect me.

Shitty food has tons of calories and releases more dopamine. The brain rewards you MORE for eating a double cheeseburger rather than eating spinach or kale. Why? Because your brain isn't stupid. It knows that you would have to eat 10-20 pounds of spinach in order to survive , plus it would take up all of your time chewing up that spinach. So instead the brain wants you to eat the double cheeseburger which has tons of calories and basically in 5-10 minutes you get all the calories you need for the day. This is why a burger tastes better than spinach. Because it is 'better' for survival. If you want to learn more i highly recommend learning more about the Pleasure Trap.

Is he legit? he offers good advice generally speaking.

God is free of any karma. So in the absolute sense we can say that there is no karma. But in the relative there is defintely karma because every action leads to certain consequences. Some politician who steals money from the goverment creates serious distress to people around him and ultimately he will have to suffer through his own devilry because of non-duality. Not even Buddha can escape karma.

Caring too much about the physical body is a sign of low consciousness. I used to be like that but I realise that it's a stupid game that can't be won no matter what bc your body is deterioration and going straight to the grave. People obsessed with their physical appearance suffer enormously and it's not even funny. I speak from direct experience

What do you think about Arthur Schopenhauer as a philosopher?

@DocWatts Yes and he was also a pessimist. Some of his ideas are very problematic and toxic i think. It doesn't seem that he was the happiest guy around lol.

I think people are judging others by their own standars. Leo does not have the body type to be muscular. Some people are more genetically gifted to have big , nice muscles without even exercising. Leo has been gifted to be more mental and that's where he focuses the majority of his time. If he had different genetics for muscles then he might cared more about having big round muscles. Someone more physically gifted would probably want to enhance more his physique just like a philosopher or knowledge-junkie wants to learn even more. Some people chase more power through the gym while others through the library. They are both egoic activities i think. My point is that people do what they are good at. If you have a nice body and get compliments about it, you'll probably want to enhance that by going to the gym. If you have tons of knowledge and people are impressed by you, you'll probably want to be learning even more. If you are very good at math and people give you compliments about it, that's what you'll pursue. Leo has gotten love and compliments for his mental achievements, not because of his body. He doesn't have motivation to develope a ''nice''(by someones else standards) body.

@Leo Gura Joe Rogan is the type of guy having orgasms watching other people get seriously damaged and injured. a Plus he works for Dana White. The nicest person in the universe who pays 10-20 grand world class atheltes to get in the octagon and risk life-altering injuries. Hey i can't blame him. HGH, gambling and hookers are expensive!!

@Bazooka Jesus Becoming Infninite was the single greatest , most mind-blowing , ''experience'' of my life. Nothing compares or even comes close to becoming Infinite.

John Butler is awesome. He is one of my role models. I hope to be as peaceful and wise as him in my old age. He has been meditating everyday since he was 26.

@Michael569 Because the odds of getting cancer are not looking that good.. 1/2 in women will get cancer and 1/3 in men. He has made some pretty absurd statements. His worldview is purely based on science and he follows a diet where he eats whatever junk food he likes because it fits his macros and doesn't think there is any problem with that because of science. Vegan Gains has made some good points about him in the past. I think he is a good example of scientism and purely a materialistic approach to life.

Death is something very interesting. One part of me really wants to find out what will happen when i die.

I don't understand why some people get caught up in the ''meaningless'' of life. I have been through a phase of nihilism myself when i was younger but it didn't last a while. Why would i need some sort of Absolute meaning? To me life is inherently meaningful without the need to construct any meaning whatsoever. Not the other way around. I can wake up in the morning with the hope of living well another day. I don't need much more than that to keep on living. And What is the problem of constructing your own meanings? Why the need of some absolute meaning making figure? I don't get it. If we are to say that life is meaningless then please tell me how life would it be if it was actually meaningful? I want to know the contrast.

I know very little about Nietzsche's work. But his work is highly valued by our culture. Why is that? Why did Nietzsche's ideas became so famous and why is he considered a great philosopher? If you have studied his work, let me know.

@DocWatts Thank you. Great analysis!!

Read Below my post (because something is wrong and it wouldn't let me post my original post here)

@diamondpenguin It's not worth more than the world. At least for me.

@Mason Riggle Nope. I didn't glimpse anything. I literally became fuc*king infinite.

@Gesundheit2 Yes but where intrinsic motivation comes from? It also comes from a part of your brain.

It's not just a matter of content. It's more about how much aware are you of the content. When you take a psychedelic or have a mystical experience then you finally realize that consiousness has many qualities to it no matter what the content is. You become more and more conscious of things without any content changing. I would describe Consciousness like a glass window that it usually very dirty and you can't see very accurately from it. When you clean it, you see crystal clear. That sense of having a crystal clear perception of reality is really addicting for me because it happens so rarely..

When i took 2 tabs of LSD 3 years ago then suddenly I became Infinite. Ultimately we are an infinite being.

@vindicated erudite I think they are the same meaning that an orgasm is an orgasm. The brain does not see a difference between real sex or imaginary sex. There is a part of the brain that does not distinguish those things. This is why sometimes when you're half asleep and half awake your brain confuses imagination with reality.

@Michael569 It's incredible how intelligent the human body is. It has all these mechanisms built-in. It's amazing. Yes some downregulation happens for our benefit for sure. They call it tolerance i think.
