  1. This was posted last week. She is looking for a spiritual man. It sounds like destiny to me. If you guys have a baby, it will be the new Buddha. Let's make it happen.
  2. The number of dimensions that you are aware of, became your reality. Most people are aware of 3D space dimensions and 1 dimension of time. Notice the capitalization of mind and Mind. 0D is the big Mind, 4D is the small mind. The only way to know is for the smaller mind to become the bigger Mind.
  3. @Principium Nexus You are onto something here. An important concept in statistics is something called degrees of freedom (DOF). Here is how Wikipedia defines DOF: The number of independent ways by which a dynamic system can move, without violating any constraint imposed on it, is called number of degrees of freedom. In other words, the number of degrees of freedom can be defined as the minimum number of independent coordinates that can specify the position of the system completely. Let's start at 0 dimensions. In 0 dimension we have no constraints on our system, and thus infinite degrees of freedom in infinite directions. In 1D, we have our first constraint. Our system creates a line and we can only move through the coordinates of a line. You are free to move about the line and that's all. In other words, you are allowed to choose any (x) from the number line. In 2D, we have another constraint on space. Think of this as having (x,y) coordinates. You are free to choose any x and y, but nothing else. In 3D, we add the third dimension of space. Now we have (x,y,z) coordinates and you are free to choose any x,y, and z. Here comes the tricky part. To create our reality we must add a fourth dimension of time (t). Unlike dimensions of space where we move back and forth, time can only go forward which limits our degrees of freedom. In 4D reality, we can move around in all x,y,z coordinates but only forward time coordinate. That is our current reality. 4D is where your mind exists, but 0D is where the Mind exists. 0D has infinite degrees of freedom, is unlimited, without any constraints. 0D is the Source and 4D is our current reality. Then the question becomes, how does 5D look like? That I am not sure. I have had a psychedelic experience where I perceived each special and time dimension separately. Imagine the 3 dimensions of space to be cut with the dimension of time. Reality then appears as 3D images falling onto themselves very very very fast. How many dimensions are there? I don't know. Why wouldn't there be infinite D? To make this example even more interesting, throw the concept of light into it. Think about how light can play a role in all this. E=mc^2
  4. There is no such thing as feminine and masculine traits or skills. The skills that you feel uncomfortable with as a female, you reject them by calling them masculine. To see yourself as a feminine woman, you have created self-limiting beliefs that you can't possess masculine traits. But you can. You must believe that you can take responsibility and control your emotions to take responsibility and control your emotions. To self-actualize, you have to re-own all the qualities that you have dis-owned. You must integrate the feminine with the masculine. I think the greatest aspect of self-actualization is the ability to surrender, which comes more easily to women than men. So consider yourself lucky to be a woman.
  5. This thread is one giant distraction, and I can't handle it.
  6. Radical Honesty is radical. Reality is not all black and white. It has 50 shades of gray. Try to be honest as much as you can, but you don't want to end up in a mental hospital.
  7. Honesty is a virtue, but be careful. Don't tell truths to people that can't handle the Truth. If you love your mother, you should try to make her understand your situation. Be more understanding of her, so that she can be more understanding of you. I have news for you. Everything that Leo has ever said was also a lie. Everything. The Truth can't be told. Only lies can be told. Good luck.
  8. What is the difference between fiction and non-fiction if everything becomes a product of your imagination?
  9. Some questions you should ask yourself. 1. For what achievements I want to be famous for? Maybe you want to be recognized as being funny, intelligent, etc. 2. Do I want to be famous just for being famous? Recognize that this is circular reasoning that leads nowhere. Every desire arises out of lack. The desire for fame arises out of a lack of recognition and approval. It seems that you seek the approval of others in order to be happy. But notice that some people will approve of your fame and some won't. If you seek the approval of others, you will always be unhappy since your happiness depends on their approval. Learn how to recognize and approve your own talents and be happy forever.
  10. Leo is the prophet that predicted the run on toilet paper. If humanity wasn't so full of shit, why would they need so much toilet paper?
  11. Leo can only take his universe with him because Leo is His own Universe. We are all the centers of our own universes. It will be sad from the perspective of our ego because he is helping us go beyond our ego. He is improving our lives. But from the perspective of beyond the ego, there is no death.
  12. Here is my speculation. 1. If Leo became Infinite, it would be only his perspective that becomes infinite. From the perspective of others, we will still be finite. 2. Assuming that Leo was right in his assumption that going further would mean death, in physical reality he would be pronounced dead. 3. The most important information in the video was not the things Leo said, but the things that he didn't say. For instance, he said that he admires the beauty of the female bodies. Female bodies are beautiful. But what this means, is that Leo has deep-rooted desires for gross bodies that he is unable to transcend. The human soul is composed of three elements: gross, subtle, and mental body. Each element builds on top of the previous. On psychedelics, you are elevated to your mental body where you can introspect yourself. Leo has a good grasp of the inner workings of the subtle body (desires) and mental body, but it seems that he is still stuck in some aspects of the gross realm. Of course, this model of the human soul is not true but only when transcended. Of course, this is only my speculation.
  13. @Member You are missing the point of my argument. You can be born without arms and legs, but you can be happy and share your love with the world. You can be given beauty and riches but in the end, you might end up shaving your head and losing your mind. Don't judge justice by appearance. Every beautiful appearance hides harsh reality and every ugly appearance hides a beautiful soul.
  14. Let's say God decided to offer you a chance to resolve the injustice. God decided to offer you a choice. Choice 1: You can become Nick Voicic. A man without arms and legs. Choice 2: You can become Britney Spears. A woman with beauty, money, talent, fame. Who do you choose to become?
  15. Any understanding is useful. Understanding of natural sciences is useful because once you understand them, you understand their limitations.
  16. There is no hate. I was just trying to outline their path in a somewhat humorous way. Everyone has to start somewhere. In reality, after our births, we all fall out of the pants of some girl. RSD learned how to profit from wanting to get back into the pants of girls. Kudos to them.
  17. I will use an analogy from David Hawkins. On psychedelics, you get high above the clouds and you are able to see the Light of the sun. But then you come down from the high and you can no longer see the Light. When you come down to the ground you have to learn how to remove the clouds. When you learn how to permanently remove the clouds, the Light of the sun will reach you forever. Clouds may come and go. They are temporary. The Light of the sun is permanent but only to those who know how to remove their clouds.
  18. @PenguinPablo For Pablo, the Penguin.
  19. @WhatAWondefulWorld It is a wonderful world. Full of wonder. I wonder why would anyone want to leave this world. Don't romanticize God. Don't imagine that God-realization will give you permanent bliss in which you can bathe for all eternity. The infinite perfect God lacks finitude. God is currently the envy of your current finite state. God wished to be born through you so that He could experience your finite life. Embrace your life and attempt to see the beauty of it. In your embrace, you will eventually find His.
  20. To know misfortune, you must miss the fortune. To know fortune, you must know how not to miss the fortune. The hardest thing to know is that which you don't know. Those who know, know fortune. Those who don't know, know only misfortune.
  21. I will try to give you a meta-perspective on your journey. Hopefully, that helps. As you go through life, you acquire concepts that ground you to reality. To exist in the world you must have a worldview. A worldview comprises of all your memories, experiences, and ideas. As you grow you learn more and more. Your memories, experiences, and ideas about the world increase. To make an analogy, you are building a house of cards. You are building your house of cards for years but then you learn that you have used the wrong foundation. So you destroy your house and you start over again. Destroying your house is painful, but it has to be done. So you start anew. You learn more ideas about reality. You read about ego, Objectivity, God, etc. You are rebuilding your house of cards but still, some pieces are not falling into place somehow. For years you are building a new house of cards, but new winds come and you have to destroy it again. You see, when you are building the house of cards, you fall in love with the process of building, so you don't want to destroy it. That is when you try to revert to old ways. You want to revert back to religion so that religion can ground you. You wish to revert back to old ways because you know that your house of cards is not stable yet. You don't want to destroy it. Until you realize that everything you have written above is just a concept that exists in your imagination, you will have to keep building and destroying your house of cards. At the end, when all the cards fall, you realize that there never was any house or any cards.
  22. Every person has blind spots in their personality. Marriage is a contract or a union in which blind spots are to be explored. When you say, till death due us part, you are saying to the other person that you wish to explore each other's blinds spots and they can't run away. You are basically tying the knot on each other's ankles, and making a promise to tell each other truths that will grow you in every aspect. In modern days the vow of marriage is a loose contract, and not many people tell each other the truth. So not many people grow from marriage.
  23. If one becomes aware of their full potential as God, one will become so afraid and die. In death they will become the actual God. But the Grace of God won't give you full awareness in one insight. His Grace will give you always as the right amount you are willing to carry with you. So don't be afraid of your potential. The path is long and hard, but its starts with a single step. Make the first step.
  24. Culture has to indoctrinate people into common beliefs. This creates uniformity in human behavior. If people don't adopt similar beliefs about physical reality, society, and culture, Society itself would disintegrate. Spiritual people at some point in time realize that Culture is the greatest cult that misperceived itself not to be a cult. So spiritual people decide to exit culture. But if you exit culture, you exit reality. On the way out of reality, when you don't know who to trust, you put your trust in Spiritual Gurus or crazy conspiracies because they exist on the outskirts of reality. They envigorate your anger that you have against Culture and Society. On the way out of reality, conspiracy theories validate your own experience. And thus you cling to them. You cling because you don't want to let go completely of reality. Every conspiracy theory, every spiritual guru (including Leo) is a conspiracy against your True Self. But in many cases, they are necessary to give you the push into your True Nature. You will cling to them as long as you need them. But at some point, you have to let go.
  25. Based on the video where he tries to enlighten his parents, I think he fails to notice that all people have different paths. He thinks he can just give his experience and perspective to others. But it doesn't work that way. The psychedelics have shattered his previous paradigm and now he is trying to make sense of the newly expanded paradigm. It needs a lot of integration. I hope Leo gets in touch with him.
