    The reason I do that is because I deal with a lot of dumb people who misunderstand my ideas.

    Misunderstanding an idea is just misunderstanding an idea. A self who has dumbness is an additional projection.

    You just haven't realized yet how dumb you are. This is not an insult, it's a truthful statement.

    This is manipulation. You do not have an experience of another self who is dumb.

    See, other spiritual teachers will lull you into a false sense that you have reality and spirituality figured out.

    My style is designed to humble you. A lot of people don't like to be humbled, obviously.

    You are not talking to people.

    Frankly it surprises me that people take it so personally.

    How can persons not take it person-ally? ?

    Just do the work and you will be "special" too. Even when I say I have been extremely conscious, that doesn't make me special in my mind.

    Yes it does. The word "extremely" points it out, obviously. ?

    It's just really difficult to change my style on a dime. It's like steering an oil tanker.

    It's quite easy actually. Delete all your videos and this website.

    @Lana Faye Hi!

    I used to take citalopram for a long time for depression, and olanzapine for a few weeks after an intense trip: suicidal delusions etc.

    I know how the olanzapine feels like. It was helful for me at the time, when the delusions and anxiety were at their worst, but the side-effects are pretty harsh. Are you still taking it? I recommend quitting the meds according the doctors advice and just a bit by bit... The withdrawal effects can be pretty brutal, especially with olanzapine.

    Overall, your experience sounds pretty familiar. For me it was mostly about suicide and self-harm... Intrusive thoughts and delusions, anxiety that I might just "lose control", "go insane" and kill myself. Stuff like that.

    It takes some time to sort these things out. There will be clarity and probably quite awesome insights coming as to what's went down and why these thoughts appeared. For me it was probably the most brutal and painful experiences I've ever had, but what I learned from it and insights I had has been so precious. In fact I'm starting to appreciate the whole experience.

    Really recommend psychotherapy, though only when you're ready and feeling stable enough with it. And from the spiritual side, A Course In Miracles was and still is pretty damn helpful for me. Though make sure you're ready and stable enough for that stuff too.

    Wishing all the best for you and your family! ?

    I get it, Infinity IS. It must be all and every way.

    No. Infinity be's not "all and every way". Infinity be's infinity.

    So God is myself, but also so detached that it doesn't matter what happens to me.

    Yeah. Though God / Self is not "detached". It's just that nothing "happens to" God. Nothing ever happens.

    What now?

    Undo the ego-mind ("world" and "things" and "selfs").

    Accept that the innocent are being physically destroyed and suffering immensely?

    No innocents are being destroyed /suffering or be-ing to begin with. There is no "world", "stuff happening in a world", etc. That's the illusion, that which is not.

    41 minutes ago, Vibes said:

    And that God is so selfless and detached that it can't do shit, it just is?

    Yeah, God just is. And that's it. All else is that which is not. (Not two. Non-duality. Truth.)

    41 minutes ago, Vibes said:

    it's so fucking hard to love life.

    Yeah, cause what you call "life" is a projection of the ego; separation, guilt, shame, fear, lack, shortage, death...

    God/Truth does not create "your life" or "the world", nor "live in a world". God/Truth just be's God-Truth.

    But a big part of what makes people happy is having status (upper Maslows needs) and having sex. 

    Nothing makes us happy. Happiness is what we are.

    Why it seems like "fulfilling needs" makes us happy, is because the fullness we are cannot "join" thoughts or beliefs about lack. So when we experience something we desire, like sex, it seems like the good feeling comes from that thing... When it actually comes as thoughts about lacking what's wanted is not believed or appearing.

    This is obvious as you can feel fulfilled or happy right here and now, even if there was no sex or "a need being fulfilled"... Just by letting go the discordant thought, by focusing on something else.

    It's not necessarily that women choose high status men but that men often believe that's what women do. Conditioning. It's the "you're never good enough for the world" belief.

    What are the best ways in which you can still find motivation without deluding yourself into thinking it's about some greater purpose?

    Not motivation perhaps. Inspiration is more aligned.

    Why is sex and intimacy sought? It's the belief that happiness or good feeling comes from these things. So happiness is what's always really looked for.

    It gets tricky here, I can't fully comprehend but I suppose you're referring to the Absolute. I'm speaking in terms of relativity, but still within the perception of God and "goodness". I say relativity because that's where the duality between good and bad can exist. 

    I speak of truth vs. illusion.

    It's not that the duality of good and bad exists in the relative but not in absolute. Good and bad does not exist, and that's it. The world is an illusion. All things are an illusion. Illusion means 'that which is not'; God does not create the world or allow anything in the world. Cause the world never even happens. There just is no such thing.

    Well, you're basically just dodging the questions by saying "it is what it is" i.e. the Absolute, beingness.

    Saying that there is no Santa Claus is not "dodging the question".

    This is not "bypassing" or "Neo Advaita" etc. It's the truth.

    Since God allows everything

    God does not "allow" anything, cause there is no things. All 'things' are falsehood, that which is not. How can you allow something that is not?

    does it make sense to hate him for what he did?

    The illusion is that there is a he who did something. So neither hating, loving, nor accepting "what he did" makes sense.

    What makes sense is a correction in perception. Seeing your Brother as who he is in truth, not a separate self, a body, a doer.

    Universal Mind that imagines things into existence. And that there is no limit to what this mind could imagine or create . I want to know the mechanism of creation. Like how exactly does this mind creates ? Why do we have something rather than nothing ? How do we get anything from scratch ?I can think of my nightly dreams and by analogy I don't find a mechanics behind my dreams..my mind just dreams shit up out of thin air . Is that also the case with the universal mind ?

    Every thing is like a symbol or metaphor for what goes in the mind.

    Truth just be's the truth. Falsehood however, needs a symbol (an appearance, form, perception of).

    20 hours ago, Someone here said:

    then does that mean that any hypothetical universe or creature I imagine in my mind right now, that thing exists ? So pink unicorns..flying kangaroos..Elfs ..creatures with different genders than male female (hyper genders creatures )etc..? All that exists ?

    No. None of it exists. It's falsehood; that which is not.

    20 hours ago, Someone here said:

    And my last question is that what is the ultimate purpose of creation ? Does this universal mind have an agenda /plan /purpose / goal to what it creates ? Is it sentient or dumb (automatic)? Ļike does it spawn things into existence endlessly just because that's what it does and can't help but to continue to create infinitely? Or does it have a say in the matter?  Like does it have control over what it creates or just creates randomly in a  chaotic manner ?

    Creation is like a veil pulled over to hide your true self.

    It is belief in separation and hence fear and guilt projected as sort of a "movie" playing out, displaying a metaphor for beliefs (the ego).

    It displays the same belief over and over like record, just in different form, until the belief is dispelled.

    20 hours ago, Someone here said:

    And my last question is what's the ultimate fate of all reality ?

    Cessation. "There is no end to what never began."

    20 hours ago, Someone here said:

    But then you said God will get bored of that and decides to divide itself again and go through an infinite chain of creation again . So does that mean that reality will never rest in peace ?it will always gonna be dreaming something?

    Truth already rests. Truth does not dream, it just be's the truth. Only falsehood needs a symbol (form). Falsehood never be's though, that's what falsehood means. None of it ever happens. Like a blink of an eye and not even.

    If you want to arrive at death safely, be my guest. You’ll be no different than most people who live out of fear and desperation.

    That's the very fear talking.

    This is exactly how it is that fear keeps being experienced. There is a belief than something is needed and that this need can be failed to be fulfilled.

    Practically speaking, fear is eventually handled with the acknowledgement of guilt, shame, insecurity and unworthiness.

    This is not "advanced spiritual teaching". It is an ideology, a belief-system, projection of insecurity, and feeding from insecurity, to create an image "better than you". Manipulation.

    It is a dick-measure hamster wheel covered up as "spiritual work" and philosophy.

    The "dangerous and extreme" - thing is also just total crap. Spirituality is not 'inherently risky'. There isn't "you're not ready for this yet, do the grounding work" etc. Total bullshit. What seems risky, is taking a bunch of psychedelics in order to gain insights, to finally be not-ignorant, not-dumb, fearless and selfless enough in the crooked judgement of some guy on the internet. He tells you what's the right insight. He tells you what you should know, 'be aware of' in order to not be an ignorant 'low conscious' baby. ? And you eat it up, believing it's true and very important. When really it's a trick, manipulation to hide insecurity and seem better than others.

    Have you heard any "spiritual teacher" ever give this same impression about the path? Do you notice this is conjecture, something you have heard here, on this forum and these videos? Do you see how this is an Actualized bubble?

    Eventually it boils down to this: belief that a you has fear, and your fear is keeping you from X. And that a you need to be brave enough to face your fear... To get somewhere, or be something else.

    That ? is total bullcrap. And fundamentally based on insecurity, guilt and shame. There isn't a self which could have fear, or be fearful.

    Spirituality is NOT scary. It is a joyful, fun, relieving discovery, not terrifying. If you feel like shit about the so-called 'spirituality', you've been led astray.

    beautifully put, arrogant elitsm, mainly from leo, which then spreads to his followers, casting down onto his lost users, saying " fools", "ignorant", "deluded", which then negatively motivates an already, low self esteem people to take action on something dangerous and extreme and something theyre not ready for. His arrogant condescending tone he uses towards people is a clear red flag and needs to be immediately called into question from himself and how its affecting others. If what Leo is portraying is advanced work, he needs to stop with the condescending high-horse tone of guilt and demoaralization towards others who don't get it, its almost like a flaunt and some will inevitably take the challenge and end up with disaster. This outcome that affects some, but not all, needs to be taken into consideration as it is an effect on people.

    IMO all psychoactive substances are mistaken on this forum. It's basically the belief in value and importance, particulary in insights and realizations etc. which seem to come from substances but are not really.

    In my experience weed might be even worse than psychedelics in this regard.
