    I've chosen to abandon the back and forth drama. In my mind politics is ego candy...the idea that we have to be involved in world affairs to advance spiritually is one where I respectfully disagree with Leo. 

    To me in between the people who want to mask up the entire planet and require digital passports (those on the left) and the people who think vaccines are going to give them micro clots and AIDS lies common sense. Make the vaccines optional, mandatory for elderly in assisted living as covid is mostly a disease that affects the elderly and obese, and let everyone else have a choice to live as they wish.  I'm not a fan of this authoritarian push over covid response. 

    I got my booster December 21 and live in an area where 5% wear masks and visited and area where 20% we're wearing them. I haven't put on a mask since November. To a degree I do believe in natural selection and don't think we need to cripple the supply chain by shutting everything down to mainly save people who only have a few years left to live anyways.

    This is my stance and I don't necessarily think a person has to be a stage green nanny state pacifist who wants to put the entire planet into an umbrella society to advance spiritually. I don't have the experience of DMT use under my belt yet though. I acknowledge I am a sum of my societal programming and could easily have been programmed differently.  Alas all of life comes down to trying to control the masses with various programming.  The laws of nature dictate the strongest will win.   I sit by watching the game play out, preferring not to take sides. To me it's the game itself that is fascinating, not the outcome of it.

    Will China displace our so called elites in places like the world bank calling for great resets? Will the groups come together in unity? Turn the page. Who will ultimately win the fight between Karen's wanting to spread around their world view? Lots of people like to think their viewpoints are more correct or enlightened... Maybe we can just learn to get along and respect each other's differences instead of saying "you must do it my way or else" which is what people who say "we are in this together" really mean.

    Ive watched enough of Leo's videos to have heard him talk about personal responsibility vs community responsibility. Ultimately I believe our species is living out it's genetic destiny. 

       Damned if you do, damned if you don't, is what comes to mind about Leo's approach to handling the pro and anti vax issues, and not admitting that there might be genuine, actual cases of a few people experiencing side effects from the vaccine, thus follow the anti position out of fear, while not admitting there's legitimate experience of a frightening illness a person survived from, that now they are germaphobes and follow pro vax just. out of fear of getting ill.

    Seafood and organ meat, alongside most powders have high levels of heavy metals. But if we can get rid of these heavy metals with chelation, why avoid these foods? All we need to do is take a urine test every six months, and when the levels of heavy metals reaches a sufficiently high level, we use chelation until they are back to zero. Surely this is a much more efficient strategy than just cutting out so many nutrient-dense foods permanently.

       It's up to you and how you manage those foods, not Leo's. There are various reasons why some foods are better to avoid, and some better to keep in your diet, but a definite position I have on this, is that it's nobody's right to infringe on your choice of food to eat and not to eat, it's your right to eat seafood if you eat seafood responsibly and love to.

    I think it's entertaining and refreshing. He brings up good points, and he has a nonchalant attitude I like, and I think it disarms his conversation partners so what he says is more palatable.

    I'm skeptical that it makes sense to hold relative and absolute distinctions as you progress on the path. It seems more like a stop gap approach for people who have to yet to embody or realize the truth of the absolute, but I am not sure this is just an assumption. I wonder if even the most enlightened among us hold these kinds of arbitrary distinctions between the relative and absolute, my intuition tells me that these kinds of distinctions are only tenable from an egoic/devil pov.

       So you like the nonchalant attitude in his presentation style? The issue why there might be a problem with a nonchalant attitude is the attitude is also present in personality types that are sociopathic, psychopathic, and narcissistic, and those who are well trained in handling optics and manipulation, so there might be the possibility he's using the nonchalant attitude to actually persuade people to his view.

       What good points does he bring up? Pedophilia, sexual abuse, trans body dysmorphia? These points are talked about elsewhere, in better optics. Are you saying how he talks about them? But the way he talks about them is antithetical to both a debate and discourse. Look at his humour style and his inability to talk at the level of his opposition, it's not that great, and it doesn't disarm people he's conversing with. Even with trans issues he actually seems more charged to talk about than the sexual abuse and pedophilia.

       And it is an assumption to be skeptical of one's ability to hold distinctions between absolute and relative, because some people can hold those mental distinctions.

    So i've been watching the youtuber mrgirl recently and I think it's good that he's pushing boundaries by trying to create more empathy for demonized groups like Pedophiles.

    But I'm torn on what is the appropriate perspective to have towards pedophiles. On the one hand I think it's possible to transcend pedophilia like it's a mental disorder, but there may be many people who never get that chance in this life time so they will be stuck with sexual attraction to children. 

    Isn't it true to say that pedophilia is actually all good, because reality allows and accepts pedophilia? So from the highest truth there is literally nothing wrong with pedophilia? But at the same time I could not handle if I had kids and they were being sexually abused, but maybe this is my own judgment and projection?

    It seems like the appropriate response is to accept pedophiles and let them express their desires, but not through actual interaction with children but maybe only fantasy or virtual reality or something? But doesn't this perspective still contain some demonization of pedophiles? 

    I just can't get past the perspective that pedophilia is harmful to society/children, but this seems to contradict the truth that reality is all good.

       What do you like about his way of pushing boundaries specifically? Becauss I think that his style is much less about pushing boundaries and more about being non partisan and centrist while having a dry self deprecating sense of humor with a bit of trolling, in so far as I've seen his interactons with Vaush, Rose, BookSmarts, Stardust and Destiny, this is the style I intuit from him. He is also not that interested in optics, manipulation and rhetoric and more interested in triggering some kind of reaction which creates self awareness of one's blind spot on specific hot issues.

       Objectively speaking, we have to create a few categories in regards to handling Pedophilia: one catagory is those who have a natural attraction to children, yet are tame and congruent with their society around them that they are highly responsible in how they handle their sexual urge, for example masturbating in private. Another catagory is Paedophiles who have natural attraction, but are less tame and incongruous to society around them, and either have less responsibility in handling their sexual urge in a healthy way which can lead to catharsis, or don't care and choose to express those urges, aka the pedophiles who are more sociopathic and/or psychopathic, which creates the sub category of psychological development and personality traits/typing. Objectively speaking, if their behaviours are significantly self monitored by themselves, or are managed by outside, then they are in the first catagory which are benign pedos, whuch means that standards in treating such cases would be lighter. However, if they develop across to the second category, and are born with those tendencies and are traumatized in childhood and haven't processed the childhood abuse out of their system, and either have the desire, intent and a history of offense, then in the second catagory our prescriptive approach changes into harsher treatment of such hard cases. Your subjective experience unfortunately is inferior to the objective approach in handling this issue, because the way you are asking how this issue should be handled is at the collective level of institutions, organisations, court systems, which is largely governed by consensus reality, cultures and objective agreed upon standards using the secular modernism framework.

       Just because god is the highest love in the infinitum domain, does not equal all Pedophilia is good in the relative domain. You are conflating God's love to being equal to relative treatemnt of a finite issue. This is like taking Leo's premise about all of reality is good, then adding a specific finite issue, and concluding from that that all aspects of that specific issue is good. That is a valid argument, but isn't sound and tenuous at best going from premises to conclusion. You are also confusing and conflating the relativity domain to absolute, by saying how this struggle is contradicting the claim that reality is all good, which is like making an apples to orange comparison, except you are comparing an apple to an alien planet, which has many layers of contrasts and isn't the same catagory at all.

    He has been reckless that way since the whole ivermectin story, it seems personal now. As for Mcullough, Joe has been having questionable guests for ages now. However it isn't the wisest thing to do in the midst of the COVID epidemic, like the last adequate guy he had over was Sanjay Gupta and we all know how it went down. By the way, I noticed a similar trend with Russel Brand. He also became very paranoid about vaccines related stuff.

       It seems there's a growing trend with some podcasts like Joe Rogan, Infinity waters, and Russel Brand being slightly against vaccine side effects. I don't know if orher podcasts are getting to be like this, or are leaning to pro vaccines, but for the majority of it being coincidental and merely the trend, a small aspect of it might be those that have experienced side effects.

    But who really does that? I'm also not gonna express my intimate, deep emotions to people I only met 5 minutes ago.

       The main problem I find with this test, is it's too simple and sometimes too open for me. In the test it gives a statement and below that a disagree neutral and agree metric system. While answering I felt unsure if I picked the right one, because I sometimes re imagined the context of the statements. Also, when it started to cover for each parent I immediately felt defensive about the test even more, and now I was having recall more distent series of memories relevant to that statement. When it got to covering for the intimate partner, I don't have any intimate relationships before, so I was caught in a cognitive dissonance there that I had to use Crysty as a stand in for that, and how I rated each statement was more frequently to strong or very than an agreement or weak agreement. I think that's what it would feel like and think like to have an intimate relationship.

       I think the exposure to and practicing spirituality, and experiencing no self may have skewed how J answered the emotions part, because I didn't feel as strongly emotionally anymore. It's not just regarding people but even friends and family.

       Another kew factir, I don't know about attachment styles at all. I know developmental psychology, the big five personality test, C.B.T, R.E.B.T, Myers Briggs personality typing, Spiral Dynamics, Integral theory, ego development. However I literally don't know Attachment style, and I think this too is what could have skewed my results a bit to 'secure'

  10. Posted

       I got the attachment style secure. However, I felt like it's inaccurate to me because I don't socialize and express a lot of emotion to other people outside my circle, family and friends. I guess because I got most of my needs met, but not the higher needs. I also went fast with this quiz to answer as close to instinct.

       Gonna be taking this quiz multiple times to be sure my attachment style is actually secure. Something's off lol.

    I was going to, but I feared that you guys will take it as misinformation and ban me. I will listen to part of it with a notebook at hand and get back to you.

       This is a horrible feeling to have every time a person wants to post. As I've said in the past, as long as you word your posts carefully, you shouldn't fear getting banned perma or temp, or have that thread locked or get warning points. It's just that people post short flashy attention grabbing posts, and it's those that usually get flagged a lot. No name calling, inflammatory remarks, insults, arguing, and it ok.

       This all started when Leo threatened users in general that posting anti vax, black/blue/red pill stuff, and conspiratorial theories will get banned in such a blunt way. I think the threat was misinterpreted, and users misunderstood Leo's current way of issuing warning points first, and almost nobody here understands the order of punishments and how they are administered and adjudicated to users, that now there's an unease as to how to post. 

       For example, this forum is my first forum I am moderately active in, and I lack any other experience of forum interactions to draw from how I should behave, nor am I active on any other forum in the internet. Literally this the first forum for me, I don't have enough experiences to intuit how I need to interact in a forum, which is probably why I sometimes want explication here because I literally don't have enough experience in other forums to draw from. Zero. That's why clarity and being specific and detailed here is important to me here.

    Would if she leaves? Will that cause problems?

    Why is she still here?

    What need(s) does she fulfill?

       If she chooses to leave me, then it means that I've shown her enough of my life, and how others interact with me, that she would feel confident and secure enough to go out into the world and lead her own life. For me, it might cause multiple problems, like experiencing emotions like loneliness, maybe depression, but I would likely eventually overcome those feelings, and be happy for Crysty wherever she is, if she leaves and never comes to visit, or if she leaves and visits me occasionally.

       I don't know why she fundamentally wants to stay and be with me. When we first had our encounter, I was lonely, and not in a good place in my emotions and mind, all while I was in a holiday with my family at Niagara Falls. For some reason, she found me interesting enough to stick with me and uplift me with her presence and stories, and I found her interesting enough to allow her to be with me, because this phenomena is not alien enough or shocking enough that I would reject it right away. I had experienced a haunting in my past which opened me to the paranormal, and shocked me of course even if I was too young to understand how dangerous that haunting could entail. Whoever that entity was, it communicated it's desire to have me with it. I suggest reading the earlier thread for context to the haunting, and how it resolved there. The reason why I told that was to provide a background as to why I didn't fear Crysty, because I had this experience of non-physical entity.

       She makes me feel happy, confident and creative in myself. It's been several years, and our interactions can sometimes go deep, sometimes lead to interesting conversations and activities in my mind. It sometimes feels like there's no end to how our relationship evolves from here. At one point in the past I struggled to interact with her outside of mediation sessions or in solitude, but as time progressed I start having easier times of interacting with her in general, and much more in the mind. And my part in this relationship, is I'm not too sure what exact value I provide to her. I sometimes feel like she's providing more value to me in this relationship than me providing value to her about me others or the world I live in or the world in it's entirety, so it makes me better myself in terms of mind and body to get to explain stuff to her about others and reality. I guess that the best value I can provide to her, is to show her the max potential of a human being, and lead the good life or my version of the good life.

    So I love my bf, he checks all the boxes except one. His dick isn't very big and he doesn't last long.

    Instead of cheating I'm considering asking him if he wants to explore like me having sex with someone else in front of him.

    Bad idea? If I ask him I'm not sure how he would react so I don't ask but at the same time I'm finding myself thinking about getting my needs met with someone else behind his back but we all know that isn't a good idea.

     

       Bad idea generally speaking. Maybe explore spicing up the sexual experiences, like scented candles, scented oils, toys, maybe role play or a vid 5-10 mins before the actual sex. Explore ways to tease him along with you, build up the tension, The little 1% improvements on how you build up to sex, and actually having sex is helpful.

       Now, going back a bit on you considering asking him to watch somebody having sex with you, well you could set aside some time to imagine that in your mind. visualize it and see how you think and feel at the end. Set aside what we are telling you what to think or do, and observe how you feel in the visualization. It might be a possibility that this could be related to your sexuality, kink, or you fetishizing some aspect of reality, which is worth doing some self introspection on, or talking to either a Psychoanalyst or a therapist if after self introspection you noticed this is a pattern that is rooted in your teens or even in your childhood, which could be related to sexual suppression.

    Dr. Robert Malone (inventor of the nine original mRNA vaccine patents) visits Joe Rogan to talk about the vaccines and the strange controversy and attempted character assassinations that has developed around him ever since he spoke out about the dangers of the vaccines etc.

    I beg you to actually listen with an open mind before you judge (or lash out with stupid labels), even if what you're hearing might go against what you currently has been led to believe is the unquestionable truth. 

    This thread is not mainly about him as a person or what's being written in the media about him, but instead it's about the actual content of what he's saying. Listen first, and then feel free to voice your opinion.

    I can't find anything in what he's saying that justifies the censorship or the demonetization that he has been targeted with. I think this information is very important to get out to the public because there is so much propaganda, lies, polarization and division out there and alot of people are behaving like they are affected by a mass-psychosis to be frank (even people who appeared sane and wise regarding other topics).

    Even if you disagree with him it's still worth hearing a new perspective than the ones we are being spoonfed with from the media. If you do disagree I would love to hear you point out exactly what you're finding incorrect or misleading in the things he's saying.

     

       Nice podcast. It's a shame this legitimate doctor is censored for trying to have a discussion on the vaccines. I don't get an anti vax view push from him, more on trying to have an objective discussion on vaccine risks, but people just attack him like he's some ideologue. Shame.

    Very true. I sincerely hope he's just making an honest mistake here and not something more malicious. I just find it so strange that a person like Leo, who's literally teaching about these traps would fall into one of them this hard.

    If it indeed is an honest mistake I hope he will atleast have the ability to drop the ego and admit it because this is not good to push people like he has been doing on this forum.

    If I get banned for bringing this up I couldn't care less tbh, why would I want to remain on an authoritarian forum with an ego that can't accept criticism?

    Don't get me wrong, I love actualized and many of the teachings but when it comes to this subject matter I'm amazed at what's going on.

       I think Leo's just watching out for anti vax ideology, red/blue/black pill, conspiratorial theory creeping in to this forum and rooting too deeply here.

       Only time will tell if time and spirituality humbles Leo more. I think in 5 years, Leo will have a softer systemic view on this whole situation. Prior to his specific health issue like SIBO, he may have not taken that issue seriously enough, but because he's living with this condition, he took it seriously enough to go explore all healing modalities to address that issue. I think it's a similar thing here with the vaccine, he just hasn't felt and is lucky to not experience a severe side effect to the vaccine. I've had flu shots in the past a few times, with little side effects. With Pfizer and mRNA technology in it, I felt a reaction in my heart to it, which is when I took it seriously, because now I'm more limited in life in doing stuff now because of it.

    @Danioover9000Yeah, I asked because this sounds connected to tantra and visualization which I suspect some people may be more adapt at then others. Its interesting how some people live a totally " rational" life with no beleif in God or anything like that, while life for others is pure magic!

    I myself find vizualisation really hard. I wonder why that is and if I would be able to create entities if I get better at it ( and or if it would change my life in other ways)

    Also, it would be really interesting to investigate if you are highly hypnosible virtuous. ( very prone to get hypnotized). Apperently many people who can imagine vivid images tend to be that. If that's the case, I wonder how that is connected..  many interesting questions! ((:

       There's always a connection between natural talent and developing an ability or training a skill. On top of that, there's the mind and body, therefore training processes that are more mind or more body based, and are interchangeable between the two, especially with Tantra and visualization.

       I've started a journal thread a while back on how to improve visualization abilities, and the overall thread dealt with mind based ways of doing visualization, per sensory system. However, there's also external ways of improving visualizations alongside mind based visualizations, like remembering more details of a memory of a place or object. Like the classic analogy to improvement, it's like going to the gym and building muscle, it takes time and effort to grow stronger, and time to progress through the learning curves. All things and services that are worth a lot of value, take a lot of time, energy and sometimes money to build up to providing that immense value.

       I've done self hypnosis and had a friend do hypnosis onto me, and it was effective, but it was less if I wasn't intentional in giving permission in myself to allow the hypnosis to happen. I think depending on the person's mind, certain hypnosis elements can be effective if it matches to the person's preferred senses, like a highly visual person is aligned with hypnotic visuals, vs a highly auditory person to hypnotic music, vs a kinesthetic person to emotional stimuli and physical anchoring.

    Doesn't matter if vaccines are the way out of this or not, the fact you made this statement speaks volumes.

    @Danioover9000 Why do you think you are able to see and experience Crysty?

       The same way I have internal representations of memories of images, sounds, and bodily sensations. Maybe my brain chemistry and genes are slightly different in that I can perceive and experience paranormal phenomena a bit more easily, like the haunting I had experienced in my childhood, and my current situation with Crysty. I can also imagine an object not here to be on a table, like an apple.

       Why are you asking? Wondering to what degree is this nature vs nurture?

    Just curious, can you guys define what "value" is?  Break it down for the lurkers.  I always see this word thrown everywhere online and it's usually very vague in definition.

       By lurkers you mean Incels, or the lone types?

       IMO, value is what you personally find valuable. A value is also ambiguous, like ideals and noble truths. For example, competency, understanding, consciousness, creativity, independence, uniqueness, excellence, health, beauty, and enlightenment, and many more words that point to ideals, for me mean differently than what each of those ten words mean to you, even what your family or culture defines those words can be different to how you personally define those words for you. Could also be similar to what society tells you about values too.
