It’s also interesting to consider if Ralston is so conscious because of his hard work ethic. It doesn’t make sense in a metaphysical sense that consciousness wouldn’t allow for itself to grow and develop close to its true nature and just be totally “stuck in a dream” I agree there are definitely limitatios consciousness places on itself (frankly it would suck if there weren’t, imagine if everyone could just meditate themselves into an alien or kangaroo, NO, you’re here for the full human experience AS God and you’re silly ego isn’t going to fuck that up) It would take away from the legitimacy of the dream. So putting it all on genetics is a bit of a cop out, even the biggest idiot in Missippi could take up meditation and drastically shift their spiritual intelligence and consciousness. Some may be more gifted, sure, but that doesn’t mean it’s impossible for others. Just takes hard work.

Javfly, no matter how much you meditate or do yoga there are still legit limitations on you, you can’t turn your hand into a claw, no matter how many psychedelics or yoga you do.

I agree with Javfly. Consciousness can absolutely be developed and increased. But the desire for it and seeking out of it might be more a genetic predisposition and those who have it are certainly blessed

I’ve spent about 6 weeks with Ralston in person, and it’s true. You really have to see him in person to “get it” better. Although his books are super deep, and to be read extremely slowly like you’re trying to learn calculus from it. The stuff he’s pointing to is absurdly profound

This is a great question I’ve also thought about. I consider it’s mostly the culture you grow up in, the people around you. If you grew up in a torquoise society you’d likely be turquoise

Not sure what he meant, but I would say it’s the energy more than the conversation. When you speak with Northern women, they just aren’t that feminine and the energy of the interaction is less fluid. She has more programming of how you have to act and more judgements of you for being a man

Yeah I resonate. I only do much better in intimate locations where I can actually focus on the conversation. From what I can gather, clubs are not really for talking it’s more dancing and acting stupid

This makes no sense. There are things that the feminine can do to enchance the polarization of energy in your masculine. Similar to how you might feel more masculine when lifting weights, working on a project, or accomplishing goals. Women can also brings this out. If you don’t understand that or have never felt that, I feel sorry for you

Bro! Huge smile on my face reading this. Finally someone who gets it! It’s so beyond spiral dynamics it’s energetic and polarizing sexual energies. It’s perfect. Once you see it you can’t unsee it and it’s like hitting a gold mine. All the best man

Looks like we got in at the right time. True wisdom will become lost because you need humans to teach truly spiritual material. It has to be emptied and understood by another real human

Deeply grateful for Leo’s work. It truly transformed my life in ways a younger me would’ve only dreamed of and still does, it’s like he sparked the flame and now it just keeps growing and growing into this bonfire of God, Love and Passion. Infinite gratitude brother. I am you and you are me and we are one

Honestly man, you’re in the wrong place. Toronto has a very anti male culture and it’s hard to be a masculine man there. Most Canadian women I meet are just not that attractive and very out of touch with what it means to be sexy. This is why you feel that way. It’s because they are NOT Godesses. The toxic feminist of that culture have stripped that from them and those women are not in tune with their sexual power or how to make a man feel like a man. Currently I’m in Brazil. A very rich feminine culture where sexuality is something of pride and even the fattest women can be sexy with just how confident they are. But most of them aren’t fat. They take care of their bodies, know what it means to be feminine and naturally make you feel like a more masculine man. This isn’t a stupid spiral dynamics debate and it’s not an issue of development. These women are naturally just sexier and more feminine because their culture encourages it, and yes, they are Godesses here. Actual Godesses. I’m in constant awe of this place and even reluctantly talking about it because I don’t want a bunch of men coming here fucking it up

Sex is a beautiful part of life. Do it consciously and connect emotionally. Look up David Deida and Tantric sex

This would make for a dope ass video

They were psychedelic hippies, entitled spoiled Israeli brats and far from the best society has to offer. I see tons of these kinds of people in my town. This is the problem with Israel, you really think you are the chosen people and special in some fundamental way. It’s the most disgusting entitled narcissistic culture that exists. Israel makes me want to puke and I can’t wait until you get back what you’ve dished out

Semen Retention/Brahmacharya has been practiced by ancient Tantric traditions and Monks for millennia. It’s powerful shit. Try it out yourself. For me, it keeps me very connected to Truth

Well put

Ya it’s super specific almost to a point where it’d be impossible to find a facilitator who follows all those rules. That said, he really knows his shit and would probably be an amazing guide. I’d feel safe doing a massive dose with him around. He also has a new book which addresses this and he explains multiple ways to facilitate and do 5 MEO, maybe bc a lot of people have him this exact feedback.

Haven’t read those but he says Slavia helped him a lot in his journey

You think he’d actually try to pump himself up in his books? Seems a bit unnecessary and he actually quit serving a while ago

Cheers, appreciate the advice. I also feel mature enough to handle it but always try to be extra cautious with psychedelics especially first time around. It seems the verdict is that it’s not necessary

Must be Hatha

Enlightenment in the zen and Ralston sense is just figuring out that you are the awareness or nothingness in which reality unfolds. Psychedelics help you go more into the Godmind and Oneness aspect of reality which is more profound. Enlightenment is akin to figuring out how a car works (its running on wheels) but there’s still so much about the car to understand.

@Leo Gura Thanks. Is the risk like self harm or something? Or just going off the rails?

It’s truly an art
