yup- paradoxically so an opinion about the opinions of others less about having opinions, more about how serious you take them but hey..thats even an opinion -
Turn on some good music and vibe out- it's Sunday

Dont be so silly- I’m just sharing content I’ve found useful in my personal development. It’s totally within your right not to watch it. No harm, no foul

Sounds about right. If find ultra wealthy people to be a bit sociopathic, bordering full blown psychopathy. It’s almost a pre requisite to extreme wealth. (Generally speaking) -
Islam is ultimately a set of beliefs. And through deep spiritual work, you realize that proving true any set of beliefs is a faulty endeavor. Most if not all religious systems are founded on a set of beliefs and taken as true via assumptions and hearsay. Truth can be discovered, but it takes discipline and humility to admit and see things as what they are. In the case of Islam, a set of beliefs

I mean, yea- but they’re probably more focused on real national security threats. On a threat level- what people say / do on this forum is peanuts compared to radical jihadist groups, neo nazis, foreign authoritarian regimes, drug cartels, cyberattacks, market crashes, AI etc. Leo is probably just some random guy on YouTube to them. (If they even know who he is at all) -
Do you have a close friend or family member you can talk to? Maybe hire a therapist. It's important to lean into the feelings, but you don't have to do it in isolation.

how do you know shiva isn't some made up construct you're imagining? Be careful to check if your ideas of self / shiva are your own, or if they have been adopted by some external source. This is the real work -

In my experience- state is only as important insofar to the level and degree in which it enables understanding. A state of kangaroo Consciousness is probably pretty cool to explore, but even better if it gets one closer to Pure Understanding. Same goes for all other states. After all, what’s a state of Enlightenment worth without pure understanding that comes along with it? Not much in the end .. just more played out spiritual ideas and platitudes -
I know some people aren't the biggest fans of Owen-but this video is legit. Anytime I get carried away with spiritual work to the point where it turns into inaction and bypassing, I turn to this video. It's a great reference for building a solid material foundation, getting shit done. Which then makes it easier to do deep spirituality Fight the inner DERP !

But Isn’t it obvious that academic philosophy is not in the business of guiding people to become directly conscious of what’s true in their experience of reality? I guess not. Academics are fluffed up through their sophistication, what is true for most intellectuals is what is polished and sophisticated-language and thought. An adherence to the traditions of academic thinking and speech. Yet that itself will not guide them to becoming directly conscious of what is true. You may have better luck discovering truth by staring at a rock for a few hours over listening to an academic. -
