Alcohol never developed any human. Blame it on basic health science.

@Leo Gura interested in your theory here: once the God-realized state is obtained, does it remain throughout all subsequent states of consciousness? Be it alien, non material, quasi-mystical, human, etc?

Depends on how you define "you" and "we".

Awakening / Enlightenment.

You have to detach from these word games. It’s holding you back in this work. Ground yourself in your direct experience ..because that is all that exist. When something like the above is said, the typical newbie asks a very predictable question: “but what about the direct experience of others?”. And the answer to that is whatever you call the “direct experience of others” IS your direct experience. Unless you do a deep investigation of what I just said and really grasps it, you will never arrive.

Seems like this horse has been beaten to death. If consciousness is all there is, then of course it is limitless.

Easy: “I’d love to hang out, when are you free to get together?”

The necessity of life insurance is indeed a social construct, just as a million others things that humans deem “necessary” lol.

You are doing a great job OP. I would say don’t let it bother you too much, you were most likely in your head during physical escalation, and the attempt at sex. The reason for you getting rejected, whatever that reason is, doesn’t matter. Keep making attempts, just like any attempt to master a field..deliberate practice, get the feedback and fine tune your approach. Do this enough times and it’ll will get easier..and you’ll be more out of your head/confident.

Joe Rohan has become mainstream, ironically, through criticizing the mainstream…

Yes .. but only when one realizes that all of language is constructed/imagined. In any case, most newbies get ahead of themselves by tossing out helpful pointers too soon . We have to exhaust language in our efforts to get to Truth before we can do away with it altogether.

You are most likely over-thinking it. Follow what’s in your heart and don’t question it based on if it’s realistic or not. Often trying to be realistic is an ego-ic defense mechanism to prevent us from really going after what we want .. often because we have denied our true calling out of staying comfortable and secure.

In actuality, your hands and laptop are identical, in the Truth that they exist. You are imagining form and formlessness. The paradox is that imagination is the only thing that is real. Form and formlessness are the same in the truth that they are both being imagined/constructed by Consciousness (otherwise known as You .. God)

Deconstruct the idea of “my”. There is no “you” that possesses what you call perception. Reality IS perception..that perception belonging to no human. Humans are just an appearance in perception.

It's the misinterpretations of the prophet's followers that create the dogma associated with most religions.

Great summary of religion in a nutshell lol.

This might be hard to hear, but you need to begin to take seriously the chance that your parents will never accept your worldview/belief system. This does not mean you can't love them. Your desire to get their validation is what is truly holding you back.

What controls do you have in place to prevent you from becoming a Zen Devil on the spiritual path?

Not being a creepy or needy with women goes a long way.

I think you got it backwards

Become a man that women are sexually attracted to .. so that all parties win (you and the girls).

Depends on the context. Relatively speaking, yes .. but the idea of what is superior is subjective to each individual. So there is really only partial truth to whatever conclusions and judgements that get projected onto others from a limited POV. Absolutely speaking, since there are no distinctions in reality, total equality is all that is left. Superiority becomes just another flimsy human construct from this POV.

I doubt it. The key is striving for balance. You are going to have moments where you want to be a lazy, self indulgent bum. Just make sure the time spent on working towards your highest vision doubles, or even triples the amount of time spent slacking off. The worst thing you can do is make yourself feel bad during backsliding episodes.

So much wisdom in this. Thanks for sharing.

Does Leo make you insecure about yourself?
