Even babies are able to see ghosts. When you grow up it seemingly becomes harder.
It could be a sign of spiritual maturity, but only in one specific area. It is still possible to see ghosts while being at a very low stage of development I think.

Valid. This is just intuition I think. I feel the same way.
If you are scared in a dream you will manifest monsters. If you are happy in a dream you will manifest things that make you happy. Similarly, you will attract things in real life which reflect your state of mind. In the dream world, it is much more easier to see this.
Don't forget your mind = reality. It's not some matter of probability that you do or don't get COVID. Probability is just a story the universe relies on to carry out what it does. If you got COVID inside of a dream, you would be questioning what it means, not saying "oh it was just probability". << See how foolish it is to do that?

The ego got defensive when you threatened it? shocker

13 minutes ago, Someone here said:Why can't my refrigerator exist when it's not in the first layer (being perceived)
A "fridge" is literally perception. That's why it can't exist without being perceived. Until you perceive it again it exists as a concept inside your head.
The thing is, if the universe did have an extra layer for whatever reason, it would be completely undistinguishable from having just one layer. Something has to be perceived to exist, so in the end it is always one layer no matter what.

I think the author for FMA actually had to lie about being a guy for her work to get noticed

4 hours ago, justfortoday said:in your direct experience do you see photons, optic nerves, rods / cones, a brain?
Yeah that's literally just a story you're imagining every time you see the color green. It's not even in your experience, it's in your imagination. You're not gonna know the color green better than directly experiencing it.
To answer the initial question though, it's not possible to confirm everyone sees the same color. This is a pretty famous problem.

well i didn't expect to see this today

Yes it can, I have experienced it before. It's called turiya in Hindu philosophy.

Sounds are just as baffling as thoughts IMO. Throw out the story of soundwaves going into your ear and you're left with an experience that is completely intangible yet clearly there, similar to thoughts.
To answer your initial question, thoughts are exactly as they appear to you. When you look at a lamp there is no need to ask "what is a lamp?". The essence of a lamp is right in front of you! You won't get closer to what a lamp is than direct experience of a lamp. This goes for basically everything in your experience.
From a more relative position, thoughts are very intelligent and intuitive. What you think of is usually based on your surroundings and subconscious mind.

By "attractive" I think what he means is what your intuition guides you towards, not what is most comfortable

Ego backlash. Ego will hijack your psychedelic experience and make you panic.

Now that you mention it, cats were also a big deal in Egypt. Weird.

This is great man thank you

Yeah too much mental masturbation is such an easy trap. I get humbled when I hang out with high-achievers who actually put their knowledge into action.
-
@Husseinisdoingfine I remember seeing his comments on Leo's older videos
-
Yeah ego backlash is rampant in the comment section. Seems like a lot of people who watch Leo's videos have built their identity around conspiracy theories, which makes sense since a lot of spiritual teachers talk about such things.

Apple is amazing at marketing. They were exposed for slowing down older phones and everyone seems to have forgotten about it.
I still have my 6 year old Samsung S5 which surprisingly works fine.

Yeah most people don't know shit about food and health so it's best to take casual advice with a grain of salt

A car is more efficient at covering distance when compared to walking. But, like all things, there is an equivalent exchange that has to happen here. A car is more dangerous compared to walking, and you also lose the health benefits of walking. A car also takes more skill than walking. This is the price that is paid for the luxury of driving a car.
Similarly, with psychedelics, it is faster than conventional methods but it does not adhere to the level of development your ego is at. This is the trade-off you get with psychedelics. With psychedelics, you force Truth onto yourself regardless of whether you are ready for it or not. You do not need to do any consciousness work in order to take psychedelics. This leads to the possibility of your ego being underdeveloped during the trip and creating a severe backlash. It's the difference of jumping straight into a cold shower rather than starting at a warmer shower first and making it colder from there.

34 minutes ago, blandana said:universe stalking you / me / or whoever
Sounds like the ego is hijacking your synchronicities. Idk why, but it seems like there is fear of being stalked or watched in your experience of synchronicities.
I describe it simply as "the universe talking to me", whereas you say "the universe stalking me". The difference in wording there is interesting.

I never got the urge to write them down

Lack of confidence just seems to be another type of fear, where you have thoughts about being inferior or getting yourself into a situation where you are undervalued. These thoughts happen because your ego doesn't feel justified in its value under its current paradigm.
So maybe you could say confidence is just a lack of fearful thoughts
