@Consilience hehehe love this one ???

@Yog Same here, it pulls like a black hole. Probably watched it like 5 times.

@Frode You should know, i'm the one from Facebook.

I'm interested in how you structure your contemplation or self-inquiry. How often do you do it ? What's your set and setting like ? When in the day do you do it ? Do you use a journal ? Do you come to a conclusion after each session, if not how many sessions does it take you ? What has been your biggest realization ? If you do not contemplate or self-inquire, why not ?

@Bill W ???

By doing these stems for weeks and months, it will drill into your subconscious mind. So you are trusting the process, but you've also got to believe that it will work, that's perhaps the most important part in all of this. You should also be re-reading the stems you wrote for the week on the weekends. You've also got to act upon what you are writing down, don't just write it and think it will come to fruition.

Exactly

@hubert I'm also currently reading it and almost done with it. I think it should be done the same way as with the other stems. No thought corruption, feel it and do it intuitively.

@Consilience God speaks to us through feelings that's right. But he's probably just pointing out it can help you in general and in life to be a good thinker, like the stoics were.

When i did it it was kinda half-assed effort by just watching some Youtube videos, i wanted to start right away. And it was more powerful than i could've foreseen. Next time i'll try it i will buy the books on the book list and do it properly. It probably works cuz it takes some effort, it's not easy to do properly.

@RevoCulture

Awesome! Thanks

@Aaron p The power of thought is an art in of it self. Neglected by many spiritual folk.

@Farnaby The power of habit is what you need if you want some practical advice and action on this. But what Leo is pointing to is definitely the highest truth rather than a scientific implementation.

To express Love...and maybe get some back.

@Aaron p Yeah, i literally just read a chapter on that in Six Pillars Of Self-Esteem where he went on about exactly that.

@Consilience Thank you! Do you feel contemplation is what contributed somewhat most to your growth? (Besides psychedelics)

@Chilli That's awesome! I'm also debating on weather to start using a journal or not. ??? @Arzola Yeah I was more so just interested in how others go about doing it. I contemplate on psychedelics quite often so I'm all good. Although i should do it more often in the "sober" state. I mostly meditate to elevate my consciousness. Yeah, agree on that.

@Joscha You have to tell your self that its a long journey. So take your time with each practice and really dig into it. And then move on of it doesn't work. Psychedelics definitely might help you grab onto a technique faster. Kriya Yoga is most likely on of the most powerful methods you could choose.

@Neph Give Six Pillars Of Self-Esteem a read, there a lot of exercises in it that might help.

@electroBeam Sounds like someone needs a certain set of ego death

@Zigzag Idiot Awesome! Am really exited to give his books a shot to see if I resonate with him. Seems like a wise systematic thinker.

This is the best description on shadows I've heard so far. Here he speaks of how shadows can stall your consciousness growth from elevating into integral tire 2 and 3. You need to collect the debt of the shadows to regain your consciousness points, to break through into higher stages. Please feel free to share some good Wilber videos below if you know of some.

@Zigzag Idiot Have you read any of his books ?
