    Sounds like just a reframing of the same thing. Essentially other people aren't real

    Yes, but if the person is deconstructed enough, seen that it's an illusion, then it's not such a big jump (none at all actually) to the realization that 'people' are  same as 'you', unreal.

    On the other hand, if you're seeing yourself as real (like 99.9999% of humans), it's a big deal to hear that people are not real.

    Suggestion here is to start inspecting your beliefs about who you are, basically self inquiry. @Nahm had a great post on it a few days ago

    Somehow I managed to see the whole thing minus the last minute cuz I was workin,

     

    It didn’t satisfy me. 

    You missed the best part, where Leo wished this type of video would have been available at the beginning of his journey, to save himself some time and confusion... xD

    Maybe he'll read this comment and reconsider making it available again.

    Edit: and just before that, he says his teachings will become more radical and less compromising... And if we don't keep up he's going to 'leave us in the dust'...

    This dream is one of materialism, it functions precisely as such. Materialism only fails when trying to propose an external world or that materialism creates consciousness itself. However the brain is absolutely and certainly attached to certain happenings like memory and ego. Altering the brain can destroy those things, that is why we take drugs which alter the functioning of the brain.

    Not ready for solipsism video - confirmed O.o

    Guess you didn't get the memo - or didn't perform sufficient deconstruction - yes, on some level (materialistic) brain, memory, ego, drugs etc are connected.

    On another level, all of the above are simply consciousness interacting with consciousness and the materialistic explanation is not satisfactory.

    Maybe it'll help there to contemplate the nature of consciousness, the 5 senses (+ thought) and how consciousness is Nothing -> and make it your direct moment to moment experience. It would be easier then to not fall back into thought stories about materialistic explanations.

    There's simply no good reason to believe that is not the case, as I already see the illusion of the "passage of time" when every single moment remains to be "now" no matter how much time passes.

    There is no good reason to believe the "now" moments cannot extend beyond your limited lifetime and ego self.

    As a human being your lifespan is already limited. Most of us don't start forming lasting memories for a while, but you can go before your physical birth. You aren't confined to experience within this narrow scope of say, 80 years. And yet any experience prior to your physical birth or after your physical death ALSO happen "now".

    The actual passage of time is a sheer illusion.

    Why could there not be more "now" moments that do not adhere to your ego and memory bank? It's impossible that there not be, as experience never begins and never ends...

    You seem to give special importance to "your ego and memory bank"... this is all part of materialism, what happens when your ego and memory bank disappear? That's when solipsism and oneness is realized... by no one.

    @Thought Art Why? I want to be smarter than the rest and understand difficult stuff. Now Leo is ruining it.

    If you're not being ironic, this is exactly why these type of videos can do more harm than good to a certain audience, not sufficiently evolved past the "I want to be smarter/better than the rest"

    Same with Bentinho Massaro's teachings, for a not sufficiently developed (or dissolved) ego, they are like a selfishness boost on steroids. Sure, he has his disclaimers as well (that you have to be past a stage of development in order to no misapply the teachings), but egos will be egos...

    If you're true to your direct experience, you have no proof that you didn't just start existing with a bank of false memories.

    See the trick that is memory... If somehow you flicked to my body right now to type this, then flicked back to your body reading it, there's nothing but memory that could ever tie together that story, and nothing to "you" but a story built out of memory either. You could experience typing on my screen and the entire backlog of memory, and yet flick back to your body and have no memory or knowledge that it had happened.

    Sure, but how useful is it to contemplate any of the infinity of "what about if..." questions, What if I was a space unicorn then re-incarnated as the current experience of typing on a screen...

    Sounds like mental masturbation but hey... you do you ;)

    I mean... I'm doing you mental masturbating... No wait that sounds wrong... Well if that's wrong, I don't want to be right...

    Exactly. If Leo is actually a solipsist why bother explaining it to people, giving warnings, taking it down etc when other people are just NPCs

    Even saying 'other people are just NPCs' is saying too much. "Other people" is a concept You imagine right now.

    Even when you see "another body", you conceptualize another person, complete with a back of the body (even though that's not directly experienced), with a mind attached that has its own experience etc.

    If I'm true to my direct experience, when I see and hear my girlfriend, it's not actually a "fully built and complete" girlfriend (that's a concept I'm building), it's only a bunch of colors and sounds (and maybe other 3 sense perceptions), that I'm partitioning from Wholeness, and assigning labels to it, and filling in the blanks (e.g. the parts of her body not directly visible)

    I have decided to take down my latest Solipsism video because people are not mature enough to handle it.

    Don't ask me questions about solipsism any more. I will not be teaching it because people cannot handle it. I will no longer publicly teach my deepest awakenings.

    If you want the highest truth, you will have to discover it on your own, not via my explanations.

    That's ... ironic :ph34r:

    This proves I'm the only being in existence, since I have the video downloaded... thanks

    I first encountered her message 1 year ago when her videos were all about ascension, love chakra meditations... They worked a little bit on this character at that time, I even saved some of them to playlists. That's how I see most of those videos she has now deleted, and she switched to a more non compromising message, which seems more authentic.

    She's not ugly, of course, just not my type. I don't think I found any of the nonduality speakers attractive, Teal Swan, Lisa Cairns... The latter gets a bit annoying sometimes insisting the feelings I have for her are normal, but that I should see through them as being towards a teacher that also happens to be young and beautiful.... Maybe, except those feelings are lacking here. If anything, Lisa seems to be moving in the opposite direction, from non compromising, to going more and more into the story and fixing the character ...

    Speaking of which... Any latinas talking about non duality ? Besides Andreina de Luxe I mean ?

    How are you Being without believing you are Being? And how do you enter the state of Being without believing your way there?

    What is believing? what are beliefs? Are they any thing else, or more, than thoughts, repeated as true?

    If this is seen, Being and believing have no such relationship you're implying above, i.e. Being cannot 'be' without 'believing in it'. ?? Where did that come from...

    So over the last 6 months I've done a few ALA sessions, started with 15mg and worked my way up, last one 8 days at 500mg every 3 hours. Didn't feel bad, except maybe a slight liver discomfort for half hour day 3 that passed quickly 

    I feel pretty good on it, except the suboptimal sleep. Initially I supplemented Molybdenum and Zinc but didn't feel great, so stopped after a few sessions.

    Is it worth upping the dose to 750mg? Never saw such high dosages suggested before.
