Thought Art

I use two system: One Note and Remarkable. I have them organized into different folders as I go about contemplating, studying, and working on projects. The Remarkable Tablet is use for when I am contemplating while reading or outside because it is a distraction free device and it integrates with my computer. Generally the folders go from more board to more specific. I use mixture of texts, pictures and links. It depends on the project I am working on. I back up my remarkable to a cloud that the company has... I back up my whole computer to an external hard drive. But, I need to think a more about storage and keeping things backed up. I'd like to learn more about that just incase I can do better. What about you?

Yes, I realize that. Everything that is, is equally consciousness as anything else. But, you as a conscious being can increase your ability to be more and more aware, of conscious of God, Reality, Truth and many finite relative aspects of reality. You can become more conscious of things than others through spiritual practices. A human may be conscious but lives very unconsciously. The homeless drug addict or the man full of hate is less conscious than the sage or prophet. David R. Hawkins has a neato map of the levels of consciousness and… even if it’s not perfect… psychedelics do in fact reveal the higher states and pull you out of the lower ones.

Tell this to your cat

Be careful here. This to me sounds like Leo’s teaching coming through a dogmatic and ignorant lens. Spirituality, human behaviour, psychology etc exists on different levels. Not all teachers do the same work. Both Leo and her say stuff like “I’m the most woke” or “I am the most intelligent thing on the planet”. Eh, maybe you are. But, your still a chimp to God. I’ll take it with a grain of salt because I assume it’s ego.

Yeah, this for me makes me question the integrity of the film makers. They definitely edited it to run their own narrative. Editing is a job that needs to be done with the intention of conveying truth. They, tried to spin their own narrative. I bet, there’s so many layers to this. She probably does have areas she needs to work on, and it’s likely the documentary went for shock value in order to make more money. I have a song lyric that is “There’s a demon in me, who saw a demon in you… so what are we gonna do? What are we gonna do?” seems fitting devils fighting over who is a devil ahah ill have to observe this over a longer period of time. Not my main focus. and, really the integrity of anyone involved with teal or any of her former students should be sniff tested for integrity too. I’m sure many were unstable before and after working with her. They may lie, be bitter or twist things.

@JoeVolcano Yeah, it’s tricky business. Who we think is or isn’t conscious depends on our own consciousness.

I can say, that if you are contemplating, meditating and reading and you are grounded and healthy.. Experiencing these higher states can increase consciousness. How do you know someone is more conscious or less conscious just by looking at them? Why is he making such a clear distinction between states and consciousness. ? He makes a good point about, if you practice boxing you know a lot about it. If you contemplate you know a lot about it because you've done it a lot. However, he doesn't seem to extend this same idea to the psychonaut. So, at around 12 minutes he starts making an equal defense for psychedelics and an argument against his earily comments... Which were ambivalent. He makes a good point, if you are in an altered state are you really more conscious? Be honest with yourself about it. He says, investigate your awareness. Good points. He talks about how awareness is stable in sober states. "Get it for yourself" he says. He kind moves like Leo lol. At the end he basically goes off topic. He sort of answered "No" to the questions of psychedelics, though there was a bit of "Maybe" mixed in. Then he just talked about his own contemplation practice, the need for your own direct experience and then he rambled about elron humbard. He says "Don't believe me. Discover it for yourself" So, yeah. Thats true. Don't ask him about psychedelics figure it out yourself.

For starter, seek out teachers therapists and resources to address the trauma and don’t expect Leo’s work to address it. It’s good for big picture and deep understanding but these traumas will hold you back if you don’t get that help elsewhere.

@StarStruck Chinese Meridian system or The maps from Qigong

The Future of Actualized video from today. It was a great episode. I sense I respect Leo more as a teacher, I believe in him to improve his teachings and his embodiment. I appreciated his perspectives on mental Illness, peoples maturity/ intelligence/ development, his teaching, the challenges he faces as an internet “guru”. It must be very challenging to balance it all, to feel the weight of responsibility etc From what I am observing he is a rare teacher, spiritual master and public intellectual in how he self reflects based on the principles of love, selflessness and consciousness. I appreciate that he sees his finite flaws. I personally grow a lot when I see a teacher do this sort of self accepted self reflection and admittance of flaws and sticking points. Looking forward to the courses and next 100 episodes. I also commit to being a better student and advocate for the highest teachings and wisdom that a human can know and embody. This isn’t about actualized for me but for God, Truth and Love and the well being of all future generations. Its clear to me he is grounded in Truth, understanding and providing as much value he can to man kind despite inner and outer challenges. He is an inspiration to all who can stomach him and his words and wisdom will likely ripple through human consciousness development for thousands of years. Keep doing what your doing Leo. Peace

@StarStruck The chakras are also points on the meridian system. You don’t know. There are different maps. Just because the chakra system is one way, other maps may include and transcend it. I also am still learning. I will review the chakra system. There are 3 vertical meridians and the chakra system refers to one of them. Will confirm which one. I shouldn’t say energy centres, but energy points. The 3 treasures in Qigong relate to the chakras but are a different map. So is the Microcosmic Orbit. Check out Mantak Chia for more on that. There are quite a few different energy maps out there…

@Realms of Wonder You can make a living now with the internet. There’s. Woman I know who has like 12,000 true fans and she earns about half a million a year. You don’t need to be a massive artist you just need to build a good business model for the modern age. for me, this is why accounting and business administration was the career I’ve chosen because it’s the skeleton for everything else.

@JuliusCaesar Yeah, he’s sort of a mountain ? Tall, grounded, potentially dangerous, beautiful, and when you get to the top you can see a view you never saw before.

@JuliusCaesar Leo’s a big boy. I would focus on your own growth. ? Of course, we can all encourage each other’s growth.

@JuliusCaesar Sometimes I have to catch myself feeling needy towards him too. Just, let it be. It’s all good. Im very wary of my minds tendency to create and spin narratives about others and reality. I’m still not sure about a lot of things. What’s chance? What’s fate? What’s self deception? Etc

The future of actualized video. @Danioover9000 Then stop just watching and go enjoy doing the work

It was a great episode. I sense I respect Leo more as a teacher, I believe in him to improve his teachings and his embodiment. I sense and respect me and Leo wouldn’t likely be “friends” and that we are different types of people with different life experience. I don’t need Leo to be my friend I need him to do his job. And, of course I respect and appreciate him. I appreciated his perspectives on mental Illness, peoples maturity/ intelligence/ development, his teaching, the challenges he faces as an internet “guru”. It must be very challenging to balance it all, to feel the weight of responsibility etc From what I am observing he is a rare teacher, spiritual master and public intellectual in how he self reflects based on the principles of love, selflessness and consciousness. I appreciate that he sees his finite flaws. I personally grow a lot when I see a teacher do this sort of self accepted self reflection and admittance of flaws and sticking points.

I’d say if you wanna learn about Chakras also learn about meridians and the three treasures from Chinese medicine. The Chakras are only a small group of energy centres and are only considered part of one vertical energy pathway.

You create your own life through your own hands. Forget fate, replace that with action, principles, direct experience, integrity and life long learning. forget about what “others” are doing

passion and skill are correlated but there may be other factors

Yea, but not constant pain. You can awaken through pleasure also. Also, a lot of your pain is self created. So, be mindful of that too.

The life purpose course has a great video on this.

If psychedelics are illegal how come people are able to talk about their use in countries where they are illegal? I don't understand it exactly.

I have found them to be extremely motivating. Mostly because, I've seen reality from such a high state of understanding and love that I realize I HAVE to work to create an amazing life. Tripping gave me visions for my business, my values and my life purpose which is Qigong right now. I have so much passion to provide value to the world, to start earning 10k+ a month and to build systems so I don't have to trade time for money. I have shit to do and things to create... and more trips to have in the future. I love tripping, but I love creating and sharing and growing as well. I sense me and 5meodmt have a lot more to learn about one another. Also, mushrooms... theres so many to try! I've seen them make people lazy though. Or at least, overly idealistic with the pragmatics of life.

I think that the acceptance of pain is important. But, I also think that healing and awakening through pleasure is important as well. Sometimes there is pain in life, in this work. That is okay. But, there is also extreme joy, love, and pleasure if done correctly. Really, when you life is going well and you are very concious I think like is meant to be enjoyed. Siva (God) , has no preferences of whether it suffers or not. So, it created this dream for itself where it can suffer or experience pleasure and plenty of both. Create your own experience.
