I hope he's ok.

No it's not that obvious, even for a highly spiritual person. It's still complex. A highly spiritual person can have high empathy for the animals, but also empathy for the plants being eaten. Every time the mawn is cut, the fresh smell of grass is actually pain signals the grass releases warning nearby plants. Every time a person purchases veggies, and the demand increases, is the need to cut down forests for crops to grow those veggies.

@Hulia He already did a few old videos on what victim mindset is and how to overcome it. I think he might've not wanted to rehash the victim's perspective again in the everyone has good intentions video, but overall this should be obvious at this point for most who have followed and did the inner work he did. The main problem is that most people are still strongly self identified that they make it personal and think Leo is talking to you directly. Not the case. Leo is making a meta point about intentions, and trying to get this point to click in your triggered mind, lost in the content of the example. Again, it's not content of the example, it's the structure. You could have a very diferent victimhood, like being rpped off, or having a lover cheat on you, or walking into a pole. Different areas, but a deeper root issue.

Yeah, something about getting that ringing in your ears while flying in a plane is strangely spiritual, combined with getting a top view of the clouds and the eartb is still impressive.

For some context, I do follow Bob Ross and watch his painting episodes, and I really like how he makes his landscape paintings looks effortless. P.S. I recently watched Leo's latest video on how value is developed over time, and it got me thinking how much time and effort he really put into painting the way he did. Like he could just plop a random small mountain after doing a painting halfway through.

Lol seriously, even someone with low common sense and low intuition avoid dating suicidal people. They can literally feel how that person can drain their time and energy, that would have been put elsewhere. Tell the person to get help, and next, unless you have unlimited time and energy to involve yourself with such people.

@preventingdiabetes For example, if you really want to be good as a writer, read other works from writers, and do fanfiction, and so on. Same if it's related to art like being an illustrator, concept artist, dancer, fighter, musician, so on. Consume the products or services in the domain of life/mastery, in the ideal medium you want to be as a creator, as that also feeds the subconscious mind raw data to process and synthesis with other related or unrelated field, like a graphic novel is just book plus images. Also, get in touch with what inspired you to be involved in that field. Also be willing to diversify your sources of inspiration, do exercises and drill in techniques, set aside time to put yourself into creativity, and keep a catalogue and portfolio of what you do.

@gettoefl This does cut through most of the bullshit quickly.

@Synnergy Other than Donald Trump or Joe Biden, there were no other alternatives to vote for at that time, so they, the people in America, voted for Biden. There are also other people other than Biden who've also nudged Biden's decisions that we don't know of, so it isn't just Biden only causing this to happen.

@Synnergy The assessment is a bit simpler, Afghanistan is undergoing a change in rulership, and now the native culture in that region is transitioning to take over Afghanistan while American forces are leaving. This creates a vacuum that intitiates an incentive for not just Taliban, but ISIS and other groups to rule over the population, that is a mix of stage purple to red and blue values, with red to blue style of government, basically a typical authoritarian regime. Yes, there will be some fighting between tjose groups, but soon it'll settle down and the group with the matching value system of the population will rule over it. The only disaster is mostly in Afghanistan, as that is undergoing the transition. This is merely embarrassing for the American collective ego politically and ideologically in terms of how other countries view Athe USA, but the overall negative impact on America is little. But in Afghanistan it is relatively higher. The other factor that could escalate this is if and when China or Russia steps in to aquire Afghanistan as part of their territory.

@The0Self Basically, a reverse fish eye perspective, with ever increasing distortion of the cone of vision. Take a spoon, and look on the inside curvature, that's reverse fish eye, the outer curve is the fish eyes.

@Nobody_Here Yeah, persuasion is a balancing act. Too much bluntness and some people misinterpret, but too little bluntness and people think you're weak. Furthermore, you can't even be perfectionistic, as that point of balance could shift anywhere in a spectrum. Although lately, I do think Leo has slightly less blunt as he did admit he needs more practice with podcasts.

@taotemu Very dark purple, and very round.

@integral It's a lovely spice. Turns morning wood to morning glory.

@Thought Art The first issue is gonna be communication. If you don't speak straight forward, man or woman, you will be misunderstood, and conclude from there, either something is wrong with the other person, or something is wrong with you. Feeling either is not a good place to be, which is why communication should be first priority. Now, as a guy, the ideal relationship with a woman, short term to long term, would be for him to feel like he's leading, like being a boyfriend, or a provider and protector matters, while the woman is not infringing on his purpose in life. There's almoet no escape from direct experience, or learning from failures as men. Ideally, intuition is helpful here, but most men don't have that level of intuition, and some need to explicate from the situation, sometimes many times, until they get it. Intuition is not only a natural gift, but a mileage, from gaining experience a lot. By definition, this already guarantees failures. Good luck telling most men to control their sexuality. Most common mistake is resisting and suppressing sexuality, and feeling horniness, which leads to other coping mechanisms that are not healthy, which sometimes develop into serious problems.

@Nobody_Here The first video I watched from him was about anger part 1, and it took months to settle down and watch his other ones, as the anger one put me off a bit. The main bit was the bluntness, and lack of empathy for those who have anger issues. That's several years ago, so I don't know his current view on anger. Maybe the same.

@Nos7algiK Nice painting. The eyes need some more working, as they are creepy. Nice colour choices.

@Synnergy This is very true. If Actualized.org was based in China, China would have censored this place WAY before Leo got to talk about psychedelics and reality. Here in the west, there's enough wiggle room to talk about advanced topics like this. No where esle than the western world would this be slightly more open to discourse, anywhere else is mostly private and in small groups. Anywhere else that spokesperson might even get killed. There's nothing like the western world. I also agree about capitalism working, it's working too well that some people can't keep up with the machine. This is why we need a little dash of some values of stage green and little bit of socialism to keep capitalism functioning at a pace where most can benefit from it still.

8 hours straight? Where there times you felt tired in that interview? That's insane. Not as intense as scripting and editing a hours long video many times though, but wow that's a long interview.

@preventingdiabetes Yes, devote some time in being a creator without it burning you out. There is plenty of fields in art and elsewhere to create, some resonate with you, others not as much. Arguably, even your most intense passion will feel like a grind if too much time and energy is put to doing just that so be careful. Which is why being a consumer exists, is good, and sometimes more beneficial than being a creator. For example your passion is writing freelance and fiction for the most part. On your break, you could slow down and do less, or listen to music, or read other stories authors have made or some poetry in your field of interest, or view beutiful paintings, or watch some performances, or play some games, or keeping a journal specific to an area you want mastery on, or try to enter flow at will or bring to mind how it feels to be creative, come up with new ways to tell a story, or create a book. All this feeds your mind with inspiration, and fuel to potentially synthesis your speciality with other fields of mastery and art, and through that process you will find your purple cow much quicker than you anticipated. I find a lot of meaning letting myself oscillate between creator and consumer. It's enjoyable to listen to your intuition on which side to shift time to.

@Axiomatic Understandable, as that part of the world has harsher geography and climate, with not much else to do but brutally survive. But that's on that part if the world. When it's a different part, it's not that destructive.

@impulse9 There are definitely many interpretations to that quote. A simpler one for me that is general is when you know and intuit that you are in a sinking ship, it's time to bail out. If you double down on staying on tbe sinking ship, you will perish with the rest that stay on it, under the sunk cost fallacy. I think this interpretation is more useful as it reminds us that sometimes doubling down on something when it's a mistake, sometimes makes it worse, like doubling down on conspiracy theories because A) you have a following, B) you are providing value, like speaking about it on a video in a public forum, C) you are getting payed as well.

Until tjis is done, for the most part you will not be at peace solidly.

Just no lol.

@Windappreciator You can look into some magic rituals like cleansing an area, blessings and doing some kind of banishing ritual like lesser banishing ritual of the pentagram. After that, do the middle pillar ritual, then lie down and imagine constructing a line to god, to source or to whatever means divine to you, and from that light, see your ideal armour take form around your body. Imagine engraving the pentagram and inverted pentagram on top of the other on your chest piece. Form two concentric circles, one to enclose the hexagram, and the second to form a gap for you to engrave the zodiac symbols, colours and gems onto. Now, imagine that heart center underneath, but with the symbol of the sun Sol, and see liquid gold pour out from it and have it flow all over your body. Repeat the engraving of the hexagram and zodiac symbols around your heart center. The entire process should be done daily ieeally, but it's that effective it could be done 3-4 times a week. Once you've done all that, you can move to imagining being surrounded by a sphere of light, with hexagonal nets around you. Now you are really protected from psychic attacks from astral entities only. Additionally option is to create a protection servator. There are plenty of guides with details on doing this. You could then move on to energy systems like chi gong standing postures, tai chi, yoga mudras, or some other energy system to help against energy manipulation from both astral ir physical beings. As fir physically defending yourself it's much easier. Explore some martial arts, hit the gym. Reccomend JKD and russian systema, and other self defense systems.
