@Leo Gura What do you think about dailiy 1-2 hour meditation? -
@Leo Gura What do you think, how can Lucid Dreaming be used for metaphysical work?
-
@Leo Gura Can you share how? What changed?
-
@Leo Gura But didn't you say that psychedelics are the most effective tool? What are the other tools that you plan to use to access higher consciousness without psychedelics? Are you planning to return to practices like meditation or yoga?

@Leo Gura Isn't Awakening increasing the baseline ability of happiness / ability to accept reality as it is?

@Leo Gura Or you lack the practice of the techniques maybe? So if you did exercises of inducing OOBE for example, it won't happen, you know that for sure? -
@MarkKol Unrelated to your question, but what's your diet like? What food categories have you eliminated so far? And do you eat 100% clean?
-
@Leo Gura Like what? Give us some examples
-
@Leo Gura What do you consider as spiritual work these days? More tripping?

@Leo Gura How can we avoid it on our own spiritual path? How did you avoid it? If you did. -
@Leo Gura What do you call consciousness work these days? Same thing as Ralston calls? Because the term "consciousness work", I've mostly heard from you and him. So, basically, meditation, yoga, contemplation, psychedelics?

@Staples But I can't just change jobs at the moment. In your experience, how much progress can be made in Blender for example by investing a couple of hours every week, in a year? I might consider changing my career from software development to this, or somehow integrate the two, or keep the software career and develop 3D skills on my free time, and maybe create some kind of YouTube videos as part of that.

How many hours of work/study are required to become decent at Adobe After Effects or Blender? So for example do you consider it possible to become decent at making high-quality 15-20 minute short 3D VFX movies with like investing 5-6 hours every week for 6-12 months? Just talking about the visual part, not the audio/script.

@Leo Gura Yes, the same in software development. Check this out, GitHub just made a tool that can create and deploy some simple apps out of sentences. And this is the trend that the industry seems to be going towards. But the stuff I work at my job, it's impossible to make serious software like that out of a mere sentence typing to some AI model. But these models surely help us to build more quality stuff more quickly. But now the issue is for the beginners in this industry. When I was a beginner and applying for a junior developer job (7-8 years ago), the situation was much simpler, and the bar was not as high as it is today. You have to know a lot more stuff as a junior software developer today than you needed to know 8 years ago (due to AI and also the advancement of technologies, more nuanced differences have been made in the industry and technologies). But as I said, I always wanted to build 3D movies with music beautiful visuals, and storytelling. However, I hesitate because the time I need to spend on learning all the technologies required to do that is the time that I won't spend on my current career and industry, which is also changing very rapidly.

@Leo Gura If you are in a more genuine state from which you do those things (if you are), doesn't that make them more true in some sense? So the situation here is that we don't want to do these things because we care about survival, and the survival force is so great that it just doesn't disappear after a trip, but during tripping you lose care for survival (temporarily).
