    Adeptus Psychonautica new clickbait leo-bashing video
    I frankly know very little about Leo or Actualized.org.  I came to this place from a Google search about 5MeO-DMT, and Leo seemed to have a good deal of experience with the substance and some intriguing ideas about the spiritual implications of the psychedelic experience.  I have watched a few of his videos, but I find that I quickly loose interest.  They seem more like ramblings and he his slow to get to a point, almost like he is working out his thoughts on the fly.  I'm a college professor and so it is my job to take complex issues and present them in ways for the average student to grasp relatively quickly.  It isn't easy, especially when dealing with a subject that is well beyond most peoples experience.  I get that.  But when you have to sit through an hour or more to get what could be explained in 15 minutes, eventually many people just check out.  Leo is of course free to do what ever he likes, and clearly his style resonates with lots of people.
    Frankly, some of Leo's videos do raise a red flag in my mind.  There is a cult like feel to some of them.  I alone can.... I know things you can't possibly understand...  These are the statements of someone deluded, and certainly not what I would expect from someone who was genuinely a spiritual teacher.  Byron Katie doesn't talk like this.  Neither does Mooji, Adyashanti, Eckhart Tolle, Ram Dass or any other spiritual teacher I respect.  I don't get a sense of much grounding with Leo.  But then again, I honestly don't know him well enough to judge.  It is just an impression from the limited content I have seen.  From my own experience with psychedelics I know how ungrounding they can be.  It takes me days, to weeks to feel like I have my legs under me after a profound trip.  I know how easy it is to fall down the rabbit hole into delusional thinking if I'm not careful. 
    The biggest insight from my one 5MeO-DMT trip was being a human being is the whole point of being a human being.  Trying to transcend is really just a veiled attempt to escape our problems and the real experience of ego, the difficulties of life and being human.  Nothing wrong with peeking behind the trappings of the ego and having profound psychedelic induced spiritual experiences.  They have been of great value in my life and spiritual journey.  But the point isn't to live in those states, but learn from them so we can apply the insights in the human level.

    So from my perspective, as an outsider of this group, most of what I have seen from Adeptus Psychonautica's videos are legitimate critiques.  Maybe done in an dramatic or humorous way, but still largely valid.  We can respect and learn from those with more experience that we have.  But keep grounded and watch for delusional thinking and echo chambers.

    Hi @Leo Gura
    It certainly IS amusing, because all the exact things you said in your "I'm leaving" video you now describe as signs of delusion - or is this one of those situations where it only applies to anyone who isn't you? I guess if YOU say that YOU are the most awakened person on the planet who has mystical healing powers then that's OK, but if someone ELSE said it then it would be delusional - am I understanding this correctly?
    One thing I will say is that if I misread this whole thing as your attempt to correct for last years absurd bullshit, when in actuality you are sticking to your guns, then I can only apologise, and don't worry I will soon correct the record and let my audience know that you are still in fact completely delusion. Again I would ask you to confirm exactly when you will begin to cure all human diseases, and instantaneously solve every problem for humanity. If you could do it by the end of this week that would be awesome.

    I thought I had made it fairly clear that I don't study your "body of work" because I don't think it is anything beyond a YouTube channel by an inexperienced and sometimes delusional young man. You are not some wizened sage who is worth seriously studying mate, and so I choose to invest my energies into material of a higher caliber.
    For all the points below I am happy to go and get the actual quotes if you deem it necessary - but do I really need to do this? its all in the first video straight from the horses mouth. I think this is a big part of your problem - I don't think you even know half the shit you have said. That is why your content is so contradictory, but anyway here is some rough counterpoints for you to chew on. 
    No you haven't been promoting psychedelic safety since day one - don't be absurd. Day one of what? Your channel? Was it before or after you told everyone to take 5 MEO DMT or they were wasting decades of their life? Where is this public record you speak of? This wasn't a big criticism anyway so I'm not sure why you are banging on about it.
    Yes you did claim to be the messiah. You know when you say you are greater than Jesus, greater than Buddha, the most enlightened awakened person who ever existed on the history of this planet. The guy who was chosen by the universe to spread its highest teachings and gifted with the power to heal mankind - those are messianic claims you chump! 
    In regard to the cult leader thing - are you simple? I have said about 10 times now that I DO NOT THINK YOU ARE A CULT LEADER. You do understand that a "cult of personality" is not the same thing as you leading a cult? Surely I don't have to explain the difference to someone as learned as you? So please... tell me again whose vision is clouded
    If you didn't want to correspond with me then just say so you big soft shit. You were the one who started it with the laughable bravado of "IF YOU DARE", so at least have the balls to say "I changed my mind". You are like the guy who challenges someone to a pistol duel but then comically runs off in the opposite direction when they say yes - its really lame, bordering on cowardice to be honest, and not what one would expect from a god-like being such as yourself.
    As for my unhealthy fixation with you - what can I say, there is A LOT of material here with you and your followers that just writes itself, and I think the bizarre mindset of this group is worth commenting on. Surely you would agree because you yourself have commented on other such groups, even in your recent video addressing the Jordan Peterson phenomenon - or is this another one of those situations where you are exempt... because Leo? I Think of it kinda like when SNL pokes fun at the ridiculousness of Donald Trump and his zealots, it works precisely because its true - and I'm sure it stings him for the same reason. The pretentious tend and egotistical tend to be burned most by ridicule.

    Finally mate, you don't have the last word on what spirituality is, nor god, nor anything - you are just a dude.

    Take care buddy

    This is getting out of hand
    @chakra_7654321
    All you're saying is, "I don't got game."
    The solution is simple.
    Approach 5000 girls. Learn game. It will all auto-correct as you go out and fail thousands of times. Eventually you will become so good that you'll laugh that this was ever a problem.
    Move to a city with lots of girls and good nightlife.
    This is not an issue you solve by thinking or talking to someone.

  4. Government based on spiral dynamics!?
    Government based on spiral dynamics!?
    @Edvard A hallmark of higher consciousness people is that they behave more authentically, truthfully, honestly. So they will not want to pretend to act less conscious. That's something only a low consciousness person would think of doing.
    In many ways Obama was very pragmatic and Orange/Green. He wasn't super Yellow and nowhere near Turquoise.
    No, just the opposite. The truly wise have no desire for power, glory, fame, or success. They have no desire to win or to rule.
    If what you said was true, then all the emperors of Japan would have been Zen masters and all the presidents of the USA would have been Nobel prize winning scientists and humanitarians. But that's precisely the opposite of what happens. The people who rise to the heights of power are usually the most ego-maniacal, power-hungry, Machiavellian, ruthless, and evil. (There are a few exceptions).
    You'd have to be insane to want to behave like Trump on purpose.
    That sorta like asking, why doesn't a university professor behave like a mental-retard? He could, but why would he?
    The whole point of achieving stage Turquoise is that you see the entire cosmos as one interconnected being. There is nothing left to be selfish about. The self is seen to be a gross delusion.
    I explained why he is Red here: https://www.actualized.org/insights/trump-and-spiral-dynamics
    As President, of course he is killing people. The number of innocent civilians killed under Trump from drone strikes alone has been more in 1 year than under Obama's entire term.
    http://www.newsweek.com/trump-has-already-killed-more-civilians-obama-us-fight-against-isis-653564
    And, BTW, the US military grossly under-counts civilian deaths (of course).
    The greater the ego, the longer its trail of collateral damage. Trump isn't even aware of the collateral damage he is causing, which is precisely what makes him so dangerous. He has no self-reflection, unlike someone like Obama.

    Balancing being good enough and being different to attract people?
    I haven't been doing it for years. I've only done game for about 2 years in total. I spent most of my time working on Actualized.org and my spirituality. I restarted game recently because I entered a new phase of my life.
    I also spent years in a relationship. I have no problem with commitment. I don't cheat on my gf.

    This is such a bad take I don't even know where to begin correcting it.
    You clearly don't understand pickup.
    There is no higher odds place to get laid than a nightclub. That's why they were invented. Private parties are great, but there's just not enough of them.

  9. How to cure my awful inner game?
    How to cure my awful inner game?
    Visualizing proper inner game, and then going out consistently, approaching, and analyzing all your sets at the end of the night to iron out every sticking point and learn every micro lesson.
    It will take a year or more of constant game to start to dial in your inner game. You have to be ruthless about identifying and squashing every micro sticking point.
    Also observe how you are sabotaging yourself.
    Mostly it just sounds like you're not approaching enough nor sticking in set long enough. You gotta force yourself to do like 20 approach per night, and go out at least 3 nights a week for a year.
    You are not going to cure approach anxiety via some magic bullet. The cure is approaching. Do 5000 approaches.

  10. Need for a partner with a spiritual interest
    Need for a partner with a spiritual interest
    Definitely important if it's important to you.
    I find that most girls are pretty open to it and can be guided into it, even if they are pretty clueless about it.
    So you just want to avoid the ones who are totally materialistic or dogmatically closedminded.
    I usually ask a girl within the first 5 mins, "Are you spiritual?" and "How are you spiritual?" This tells you a lot.
    I once found a prostitute who was into DMT and she had some God-realizations. Didn't sleep with her but we had a blast on DMT. Also found another stripper/prostitute who was super into New Age spirituality and started her own church. She has also done 5-MeO. You'll be amazed at how many spiritual girls are out there.

  11. Balancing being good enough and being different to attract people?
    Balancing being good enough and being different to attract people?
    Well, at the bare minimum just physical appearance. But of course you can start to layer all sorts of other factors on top of that which makes the girl harder and harder to find.
    It's not like a girl with lesser physical appearance will meet all your other criteria. She could easily be a jobless, neurotic, alcoholic, nutcase.

  12. Balancing being good enough and being different to attract people?
    Balancing being good enough and being different to attract people?
    Calculate how many hours of cold approach it would take you to sleep with 1000 girls.
    You don't think this guy has built insane social skills in those 7 years? It's not like he doesn't have game. Game and social circle are not mutually exclusive. They synergize.
    The bottom line is that he designed exactly his ideal lifestyle and now he's living it. I'm not telling you to copy him. I'm just sharing an anecdote of how one guy set up his life in a way that's conducive to getting laid. This will certainly not be suitable for many people. For example, if you want to move around a lot then social circle isn't for you.
    If sleeping with 1000 girls is something that appeals to you (it doesn't appeal to me personally), then investing 7 years to get that is not unreasonable.
    You are also completely discounting all other benefits that come with having such a powerful social circle. A powerful social circle yields: job opportunities, sales opportunities, business opportunities, investment opportunities, exclusive events, all sorts of freebies, insider knowledge, and amazing friends. Girls are only half the equation.
    For this guy it's not just about the girls, it's the lifestyle he wanted.

    You should be happy to pull twice a month when you first start learning game.
    I told you it's a lot harder than you think.
    I am telling you the results of the best guys in the world. They are the Michael Jordans of their sport.

  14. Balancing being good enough and being different to attract people?
    Balancing being good enough and being different to attract people?
    Sleeping with 1000 girls is a lot of work for sure. That's like a career, Lol.
    He has a much easier time pulling than from cold approach.
    It's not that easy to pull consistently, regardless of quality. It takes serious skill. Both guys and girls underestimate the skill necessary.
    Go try pulling consistently and see how hard it is.

    Become Zedd.
    Or get really good at cold approach. I met a 21 year old at the club last month who slept with 700 girls from cold approach. He pulls every day.

    Balancing being good enough and being different to attract people?
    It's not technically necessary, but cold approach is not best for the hottest girls because they get approached so often. For them, it helps a lot to offer social value and to stack the logistics in your favor.
    For example, I know a guy in Vegas who's slept with over 1000 girls. How did he do it? Not from cold approach. He did by building an elite social circle such that he's able to get free tables at any nightclub in Vegas. He can get a $5000 table for free any night. Then he just pulls girls into the table. Plus he gets invited to all the elite after parties. For example, he is friends with Zedd, so after Zedd performs at the club, Zedd invites 100 of the hottest girls to a private $20,000 hotel suite. He also invites 10 guys. That's where the real game happens. Imagine how easy it is to get laid when you are sitting in a $20,000 suite with a private pool next to Zedd with 100 of the hottest girls and a tray of cocaine.
    That's elite level social circle game. That's how you get the hottest girls consistently.
    It took this guy 7 years of 4 hours per day building his social circle to reach this elite level.
    A lot of getting laid is simply social position and favorable logistics.
    But you don't need anything like this to get laid with cute girls. I am just telling you what the pinnacle of game looks like. The pinnacle of game is that your social position is so good all you have to do is say Hi and the girl goes home with you. If you want that, YES, you'll have to work your ass off to build it.
    Then again, I pulled an Instagram model thru cold approach dressed as a homeless guy outside the club at 4:30am. It's just not consistent. That Instagram model told me she was at Zedd's afterparty. Fortunately Zedd only has one dick

  17. Balancing being good enough and being different to attract people?
    Balancing being good enough and being different to attract people?
    You need to realize that girls will get attracted to you regardless of what you have materially in your life. Mostly what attracts the girl is how you express your personality. So you work on that and more girls will get attracted.
    You can be homeless and jobless and hot girls will still get attracted to you if you express your personality properly. That means mostly all you have to worry about is improving your game. On the other hand, if your game sucks and you are too lazy to improve it, not much will help you.

    At this point, God-realization is the only thing I recognize as worth pursuing or talking about. Everything else is inferior.
    Yes, it's a particular state. But what a state!
    I will take 5 minutes of God-realization vs 100 years of no-self.
    P.S. No-self is also a state. Everything is a state. There is no escaping states.

    @MrBON JP thinks there is a problem with women wearing makeup in the workplace and that we still haven't come to grips with women using birth control pills.
    It's the same old conservative nonsense repackaged in psychological lingo and pseudo-intellectualism.
    He's a conservative pretending to be something else. It's like he's gay, everyone around him knows it, but he won't admit it to himself. He's deeply confused about his own philosophy.

  24. why is my relationship with food so painful?
    why is my relationship with food so painful?
    That's very easy: because your culture has made it too easy and acceptable to eat garbage.
    If you change your diet to cut out all junk food and all processed food, you will effortlessly maintain a healthy weight and feel great about yourself. You will be able to eat as much as you want and never get fat.
    The problem is that you must reject all cultural norms for what you can put in your mouth. So when your friends all stuff their face with pizza, you sit there calmly and don't join in. Because you value yourself too highly to do that to yourself. This requires a radical rewiring of your attitude towards food. But if you complete this rewiring, you will never be fat no matter how much you eat.
    The only way to be fat is to eat processed food.
