Marajuana always pricks my fear response. I go into deep fear darkness and panic. Which is strange because other psychedelics are so good to me, even when they’re difficult, I feel held. With weed it’s just like wtf was the point of that? but maybe it’s something to face head on. Leo , I hope you continue teaching humans, some of us love your art!

Hi Leo I just finished the book spiritual enlightenment the damndest thing by Jed McKenna and it made me even more confused. After reading Ralston like a madman and even going to one of his workshops. I thought enlightenment was assessable to people if they just did the work and that it was a scale not an “on off” thing. This resonates with what you teach and what I’ve experienced myself. However Jed McKenna is very stark in saying most people on a “path” are not heading towards enlightenment. Is it a process or on/off thing? Is it true that only .01% of Genuine Seekers attain it? Are you still pursuing enlightenment or has God realization taken it’s place? Where do I put my focus and energy as I, the ego, wants enlightenment? What else is spiritually possible aside from Enlightenment that’s worth pursuing if you don’t want to make that the only goal, seeing that only .01% of SEEKERS attain? Thanks!

Depends completely on the style of yoga, but yes, of course there are benefits. It’s a thousands year old technology for awakening. But the style and teacher are of utmost importance. You can waste a lot of time with bullshit

This post reeks of victim mentality. What if Bob Marley had thought like this ?

I live within a spiritual community and it made the whole thing so much more enjoyable, relaxed, and SAFE. Having people to integrate and share experiences with what missing deeply in my soul and spiritual path. Most of these people live with open hearts and strive to be better. They definitely are not perfect, nor am I, but they are loving and chill and not lost in the psychosis that is the mainstream. I’m general they are just more pleasant to be around. Everyone I know gives you presence, warmth, vulnerability and long hugs and cuddles Couldnt agree more with your post

I have a genuine question and I’d love to hear what you guys think; Ive met many people who take and administer Bufo (natural form of 5 MEO) and they are not impressive at all. In fact, many of them are totally dysfunctional, anxious, and just plain dark people. I wouldn’t trust these people with literally anything better yet let them administer Bufo on me. Some of these people have also done multiple silent retreats and years of yoga along with reading profound spiritual teachings Is there some people who just don’t “get it?” And never will? I’ve never done Bufo, but if it really launches you into directly meeting God, wouldn’t that like a change a person and make them more conscious and less miserable? Is it because they don’t have the theory/foundation? In their defense I have no idea what they were like before, but they are extremely petty and attached where they are now. Im really curious about this because many people seem to be checking all the boxes but don’t actually develop or grow or change in any significant way and they seem to be really trying.

I find women to be more conscious loving and aware than men in general. That’s why there’s way more women interested in spirituality than men.

Hey Guys, Ive been off the forum for a while as I needed a break from this community and I also decided to go balls deep into spiritual practices without distraction from my phone or online. It was so refreshing to be off YouTube, forums, messaging, social, news and even books. Just nature and spiritual practices. So much presence and peace arose. For context Im 29 and live in Mexico (retired) in a village that is quite possibly one of the happiest and most awakened places on earth. Words can’t even describe the magic that occurs here on a regular basis, it’s a vortex and transforms the soul on a deep level if you surrender to it. I’ve been beyond blessed to live in a village with a spiritual community that values meditation, authenticity, conscious living, connection, and freedom. When I was doing this alone it was fine but seeing reflections of myself as God that also understand and reflect it back is beautiful in a way that I couldn’t touch while lone wolfing it. We are gifted to have an enlightened being lead the community and no it’s not a cult and he’s not our guru or anything, it’s heaven on earth and everyone is free to live how they want. I’m amazed to be surrounded by such a high vibrational field. The past 3 months have been like this more or less -10 Day silent retreat, led by an enlightened master - 3 week yoga intensive (8 hours of hatha yoga a day and kundalini yoga) -10 day silent retreat, led by enlightened master -10 day silent nature immersion by myself with a mushroom journey -7 days of Tantric sexual relationship - another 3 week yoga course but at a higher level (currently in) Insights -Awakening to everyone and everything as God, myself, pure reflection -I am God imagining reality -I AM, no matter what is going on, I AM is an undeniable fact and it is unshakeable, utter stillness I AM -Awakening to the fact that I am in Gods dream and everyone (me) is sleepwalking. God is peacefully dreaming. -The transparency and light of my own body, the illusory nature of perception and my own physical body. Realizing it as pure light, not material -The depth of void that is experiencing everything. The truth of emptiness behind it all. -Infinity, reality is infinity. This reallly hit me while I was staring at a plant - The thing I call “I” is a total program and I have been socially brainwashed by culture. Dropping all programs and “personal” opinions I have been programmed with. Realizing how deep programming goes and that I even programmed my own self and ego unconsciously - realizing that I created reality since no one actually came into my mind and connected a tree with the concept of language and the word “tree” I did it myself and I did that with everything. Thus, I’m creating my reality because I can only have my experience. - The beauty of the feminine and the importance of true love making. I made love to a woman I met after the silent retreat and it made the sex I was having before look like trash. I don’t want to do pick up anymore and will only make love with women who are awake and conscious and realize they are Godesses -The power of my own sexual energy and semen retention. This allow if channeled properly can lead to enlightenment. Not giving away my sexuality for a woman just because she is hot, valuing my sexuality as a man. Realizing I have reached a level of attraction I’ve never experienced, every beautiful and spiritual woman here is attracted to me and I have made love to most of them -Reality is completely made out of distinctions that I have imagined for survival needs, in truth reality is Nothing and just pure white light. -Authenticity, nothing else matters. All these silly Owen Cook and Social dynamic videos and courses can be dropped if you just understand that if you are calm, authentic, comfortable in your skin, and kind to others people will love you. And they will love you for who you are not because you know some stupid social tricks and can manipulate really well, that shit is exhausting anyway. Just connect with them and be real they can feel that on a subconscious level -The deep realization of how unconscious and stupid most of society is and how everyone is constantly programming themselves with the same stories through ads, social media, music, tv, etc and that most will never truly break free from it. The main pillars of society being “Victim” and “Perfectionism”. If you can break free from society and it’s programming you will be happy -realizing that it doesn’t matter what I do with my life, I’m already dying and there is nothing to prove to anyone. It will all be over soon so I might as well live in nature and build what I want. Chasing money and success is totally irrelevant. The only thing that matters is presence consciousness and love and connection. Everything society told me to chase is hollow and soul draining. -The importance of the moment, it’s happening for itself and by itself and since we are infinite, the present moment is all there is, so let it manifest as itself and for itself and enjoy. It’s always going to be that way -Becoming a God within my human body, dissolving into the royalty that is God consciousness and allowing it to flow through the body. -Being kind to others. Not because I have to or there is some moral need, but because being an asshole actually conflicts with my integrity and makes me feel a lower vibration. - seeing others as childlike (in a positive way) with that innocence and in a way we are all children of God and brothers and sisters just on our own paths and figuring it out - living with integrity and honesty, no matter what or how painful the conversations have to be. Being someone who inspires people and makes them feel safe. There were more insights but I don’t have the words to even put them here. I feel very proud of myself for reaching these truths while totally sober just doing meditation, yoga, being in nature and staying away from the internet and distractions. I actually did mushrooms one day and all it showed me was that i didn’t need psychedelics at all. Life is the psychedelic journey, just a bit more “sturdy” you could say. But I was high on shrooms and just realized “this is silly, I feel more conscious when I’m sober”. So, hard work and courage pay off, and this is my baseline now, it’s not going to wear off it’s only going to go deeper because I’m never going to give up. I think psychedelics can show you deep awakenings, but what do they really do for your character and baseline consciousness? I think they are powerful tools to awaken, but then you have to be able to get there sober, at best they are doors and motivators, but I’m beginning to feel that psychedelics as a legit spiritual path is not valid. Doing spirituality the “slow” way or walking up the mountain versus taking the helicopter builds you into a fucking badass, you learn deep values, build character, focus, discipline, integrity and understand nuances that psychedelics skip. Would you rather have a 2 minute blowjob from 1000 women or make love slowly for hours and days with your Goddess? Getting to know every inch of her body and hearing all the moans… The enlightened master who lives here is one of the most humble and selfless people on the planet. His whole life is dedicated to helping others awaken safely and with support. But there’s no way he’s awake, right guys? Anyway, hope this helps a few of you, we got this (fist bump). Never give up, listen to your intuition, and follow your heart

Sam Harris is for kindergarten students. It’s for people who don’t have balls and want to meditate so they can be more productive at work and feel calmer

I’m also curious if it’s an issue of purity of substance

Once and IF you fully get it, there will be “no-self” to complain about it like you are. Get it? You’re gone! Just empty blissful space. Silence. Stillness. You can’t grasp that now because you’re looking at it from where you are.

Thank you all for the beautiful comments, resonance, and feedback ❤️ Wishing you the sky and beyond in all your journeys

I resonate with a lot of your experiences and post, thanks for sharing in such detail.

His teachings are so easy to understand and written on a highly intelligent level. Very many correlations with Leo and Ralston as well. here is a pic from his consciousness calibrations

After doing some research I’m actually so post at the US dental association and their use of heavy metals on peoples mouths. I had no say in the matter and got fillings at a young age. I have a big one on my right bottom tooth. I want it gone for sure. Has anyone successfully done this? Where can I go to safely get this done?

Leo called Consilence a jackass and kinda flipped on him for just having a different opinion and making what I would call a totally reasonable case for his point of view. It’s just not a very loving and non reactive way to respond. I have sat with enlightened masters who would never talk to their students like this and only show love to them. Also, Leo’s point is invalid because people like Ralston, Buddha, Christ have attained the highest awakenings solely through contemplation. Psychedelics are beautiful and powerful tools but reality is the strongest trip of all. You just gotta tap in.

I used to be so unhealthily obsessed with Eminem. I sometimes wonder if I was just programming my own mind with hate and violence but it helped me in my younger years navigate and have an outlet for my anger and angst. I connected with him so much. I do wonder what it’d be like if he spread messages of love with that talent, but it probably wouldn’t be nearly as popular. And it wouldn’t be Eminem.

Very interesting post. Thank you for sharing. First off, congrats on crushing all your material desires. And big surprise, all those sages were right, it’s mostly empty at the end of it all. Now what’s left? Keep pursuing more and more? Nah Going within and finding true happiness and dissolving into Love and God? Yeap! I was like you man, i made a ton of money early in life, stupid amounts, hooked up with 100s of girls, mastered my physique, went to cool parties, and i was still depressed and miserable. Only recently I quit my job to fully pursue spirituality. This year I am doing 6 , 10 day silent retreats, 3 yoga modules, and likely a 49 day silent retreat along with bi weekly psychedelic trips and hours upon hours of contemplation and reflection. I have more time on my hands than ever but feel very strategical about how I run my days. My advice, get super spiritual. Take all that fire you had to go your material goals, and put it into the spiritual. Of course, balance it out. Still date women and make money, or go balls to the wall with it like I am. Whatever fits. Side note; I feel you on the selflessness thing, I sometimes wonder if I should make my life’s work something that helps people when most don’t seem interested. I have this passion to lead meditations and hypnosis, but I might just do it as a side gig

Very interesting read…

Don’t you guys see your just arguing about the same thing. If Consilence find it’s through meditation and Leo finds it through psychedelics, who gives a fug. For me personally, the two are merging. My psychedelic experiences have merged into my daily meditation practices to where the whole of existence feels like one big trip. I also live in a spiritual community and on an energetic portal of the earth so it’s a bit more trippy than you’re average place. But I can go for a walk on the beach and merge into the whole thing like I’m tripping

Lame

The GOAT. The way he breaks down and connects language is simply Godlike

I met a beautiful Argentinian woman about 6 months ago (then she left, we never hooked up) and we have been talking on what’s app, kinda flirty for about 1-2 months. Recently she moved back to the town I live in and met her in. We have been hanging out and having sex, and the sex is amazing but I’m worried that I’m doing it for the wrong reasons. Personally I don’t see myself starting a relationship and I’m kinda feeling more like something casual, but she told me that she is finally allowing herself to open her heart and that she wants to go deep. So I’m kinda worried that I’m going to end up hurting her and I’m so sick of guys fucking women over just so they can get some sex. I told her some of this, in an honest way, and she said she wants me to feel free and to do whatever I want. But that she isn’t going to hold back her emotions and be distant and is opening up to love. Im in a bind because I love the sex and I do like her, but sometimes she feels too intense and I also don’t see myself getting into something long term there. I want to be free sexually. But then again there’s times when we have a great connection and it feels good. But to start dating I know I would be doing that out of alignment. Kinda lost

All good ?

When reading my post above your mind is going one of two places, ”wow. That’s so crazy I’m imagining this guy who is trying to convince he’s having a real experience and that I’m not God. Wow! I can’t believe I’m imagining that!” or ”hey maybe this is actually a person with an experience and consciousness on the other end…let me just get my head out of my ass real quick and consider that….” go with the latter
