Getting a lot of juice from Leo’s posting on Buddhist notions of Enlightenment as of late. The Buddhists seem to designate one state of consciousness (that of nirvana and pure formlessness) as the end game. Buddhists are ultimately stuck in duality and do not recognize ontology as a serious concept in spiritual matters. The possibility of reality being an ontological tautology is dismissed as a distraction from the pursuit of nirvana-this is a huge mistake). They don’t recognize Oneness properly, let alone Infinity. What is Enlightenment? It’s an achievement a particular state of consciousness. This can come with or without a proper understanding of the substance of reality itself, or an understanding of construct awareness or self deception. To the Buddhist-these things can be reduced to emptiness understanding is seen as an a distraction to attaining nirvana. The Buddhist is resisting Truth. One, on a more everyday level- that just because someone has reached this Enlightenment state, doesn’t mean they are safe guarded from epistemic corruption of the human mind and language. Secondly, they are resisting the truth that Enlightenment itself is an experience within Consciousness that has been turned into a limited epistemic frame, in which human biases have been projected upon and turned into a dogma. That dogma prevents them from understanding reality, which is the same to say realizing God. also noting that there has been a new embrace of this kind of thinking in Western culture (even pop culture). It’s an upgrade from Christian fundamentalism, but is not free from self deception and numerous forms of corruption. It also does nor properly deconstruct science; Stage Orange has taken transcendental meditation and has turned it into a tool for self help based in science, reducing suffering/pain so you can live a productive human life, understanding reality isn’t even thought about.

These are all questions for YOU to contemplate. Step 1

That could be the case, but it could also be the case that they are pointing to something that is not being understood or grasps due to assumptions and dogmas of Buddhism or some other limited paradigm. How would you know unless you did a deep, personal inquiry into the question itself and deconstructed the paradigm? Allegiance to a spiritual school or a single path is what makes inquiry less enticing. It is easy for the mind to deny, hide behind a false sense of certainty about its worldview. It can always be the case that one who’s making accusations, misses that those accusations are coming from the very thing it seeks to demonize: ego

Not only does it create false distinctions between these-but also fails to distinguish each as mental constructions. And so, it never investigates how the mind constructs reality, and what’s behind the entire process.

High perspective - Eben Pagan on avoiding devils in business:

Interview with Catatonic Schizophrenic: One thing that this work has allowed me to do is respect the Infinite nature of Consciousness. Worldviews and minds that are normally demonized in mainstream culture don't seem that dangerous and irrational. Of course, I am still very much biased and prejudiced in subtle ways- but understanding that God exists as every mind in the Universe helps me see things for what they are (with less judgement). Every perspective, even one of a catatonic schizophrenic, is legitimate in that it Exists as a fragment of God's Infinite Consciousness.

Yoga works well for knee and back pain. I'm also ramping up some big changes as well- i want to open the door to metaphyiscal insights by facing fear and stretching my mind. There are some practical things I am focusing on to get this done. Actualized videos help a ton. Here is one of my favs:

Musk & DOGE mafia gutting SSA and exposing sensitive data on non-citizens to peddle right wing narratives on immigration and government inefficiency. Our social security data is literally in the hands of corrupt devils and used to further their agenda: Keep in mind, that Antonio Garcias and his job at DOGE does not grant any form jurisdiction to access or publish sensitive data of any kind. He states repeatedly in this video that "this is not political" - he's clearly lying, this is nothing but shrewd politics.

Pollution of the epistemic ecosystem- yes .. hallmark trait of a scoundrel of this sort.

Depends on how much they believe their own bullshit I guess .

Makes sense- my intro to developing epistemic standards was through your channel-my baseline. Couldn’t imagine doing it without it

I like that you’ve coined this term- would you agree that it encompasses everyone who thinks the Actualized teachings are a waste of time ? Seems to be a biased assertion-but a healthy one relative to Truth seeking

Normies can't conceive a psychotic break being proper at all, its almost always objectively defined as improper. So my question is, for the mystic-what is the value of a "proper" psychotic break?

I think there are more sophisticated tools for the perpetuation of white supremacy that supersede Trump and existed long before he became president (most are subtle, systemic in nature). Trump enables these preexisting structures of white supremacy and advances agenda through things like Supreme Court appointees and regressive policies that impact our education system and voting rights (immigration and border control as well). But make no mistake, Trump is so incompetent that he can actually make life for average white supremacist difficult in some pretty unique ways (unbeknownst to them).

This is a good analysis. Outside of neo Nazi sympathizers and white nationalists- there is a segment of stage Orange neo-liberals in the Trump voting block that stubbornly believe in the free market is the solution to our most pressing problems. The tariff issues does strike at the heart of their ideology, as Trump pisses all over the US economy with his narcissism. I wonder how this will play out in the larger media ecosystem-it certainly starts the fragmentation of the MAGA base, but alas certainly not enough to reverse the erosion of democracy that accelerating under Trump.

Question: is it possible for a Trump voter in 2025 to admit they were wrong?

I would imagine those solutions would be inherently corrupt due to influence of the Game A system. Not saying it's a bad thing- though I feel most Game B champions refuse to look at the necessity of corruption in mankind's survival.

Women feeling strongly about something? No way ..

I don't know if any of ya'll are real- but appreciate you being here.

My therapist has been great, it's even better knowing that I'm imagining him. Self Love at its finest

I wouldn't necessarily label this as a mistake or not good- humans are biologically wired for selfishly craving & pursuing positive emotions..99% of attraction and sex is based on this. Of course it opens the door for narcissist and master manipulators to take advantage, especially with more feminine leaning women.

I find most feminine, attractive women lead with good vibes and emotional spikes. She's typically not screening for a guys level of integrity, maturity or moral development--at least in the initial attraction phase. I've made the mistake plenty times over trying to attract women with my "resume"- metaphorically speaking, none of this matters up against the guys that know how to give out vibes / emotional spikes. Note: Integrity is still important to healthy masculinity
