@pole553 the thing is that you're not open, and there are tons of people who want to debate Leo like you do every day, which would be totally pointless and a waste of time, as i don't see you opening up anytime soon..

In this video, between 1:01:12 and 1:02:19, Bentinho describes this painfully intense Universal Bliss that he felt during his last DMT trip, just like Leo described in his last blog update. And he goes on to say that he doesn't want that, because it's not Him, but a construct. And the reason that it's painful is because it is false. That everything is below YOU and only that, which is below, can be amplified. My contemplation tells me that he is accurate about ME being above anything that can appear or that can have a description, but psychedelic experiences offer contrast/learning for being in the human experience, so they have value on multiple levels, including but not being limited to, selfish/survival needs all the way to Pure Understanding and levels of consciousness. I'm wondering of your thoughts about this

I am aware of what you are describing. I often find myself asking noob questions or making posts like this and after a short time i'm like ... "of course, i know this pfft!how come my thinking was so off at the moment?" I have moments of really accentuated mental fog, that i associate with m digestive problems, heavy metal toxicity etc. I wasn't even going to write this response, but i wanted to thank you and to criticize you a bit 1. Thank you for helping me see that i actually have a good base of understanding, BUT i just didn't spend enough time contemplating, organizing and actualizing these thoughts, so that they're active at all times; 2. I want to criticize your response, because although i appreciate you giving some of your time, i feel like you didn't actually try to connect with the person, and see where they are really coming from (we were actually on the same page) and you just threw your insights out there, dare i say feeling a bit superior. I know i have certainly done this in the past, and i see some resemblance of that. Well anyway, if i wrongly criticized you please let me know, and i'm looking forward to continuing opening each other's mind Cheers!

THIS is the type of appropach every human should take IF your goal is having healthy joints, ligaments & spine etc. to the day you die. This man is what i consider to be a conscious & honest fitness guru. No drugs, no gimmicks.

@ilja This guy's approach, that's why i'm promoting him

@ilja i exercised regularly and it got my chronic pain worse... all training modalities are not created equal.

infinity/God are not thoughts.

So if everything is and isn't different perspectives, then the perspective that everything is below you both has and doesn't have some validity to it. Infinity can afford to be this paradoxical, right? How can a thing be separate from everything? Well, look - it can! But i get it, this is becoming perspective play and it can be unproductive.

@Nahm I see, so Ben is also considering Pure Empty Consciousness as the Highest form of Consciousness, or Infinite God Consciousness, but when in fact, that is the lowest form of Consciousness. And when he says at 59:08 that it HAS TO be done out of your own freewill, and that you can't give it away to a mushroom or to DMT he is simply stuck in a dogma, right?

Continue learning more and more and MORE. Don't ever stop! The part of you that is frustrated is selfish and wants to learn just enough to FINALLY stop learning. Put your love to work and serve others. (others=yourself) You are coming out of the beginner first few years and in order to stabilize and integrate what you've learned you must broaden your perspective even further. One way this is done is through contrast, that is why you are apparently getting in and out of addictions, like waves. Observe even more carefully and patiently! You are not in control, there is only Consciousness.

Not you average dopamine detox guru, this guy is really worth a listen.;)

@Shmurda I haven't worked with anyone one to one yet although i would like to at some point. Until then i try to live as that isn't an option (because yourself/consciousness is the guru after all) and research as many teachers as possible on my own, so that when i interact with a really conscious avatar i have really to-the-point and meaningful questions ready and enough consciousness work done that will allow the connection to be as smooth as possible.

You will NEVER fix these gut issues on your own. Work with a trained professional and figure out EXACTLY what the root issue is and take informed decisions. Here's a qualified guy that actually gets results: https://gojimanstore.myshopify.com/ And here's a video of his that explains a bit why you can't self treat gut issues.

This makes sense. I don't do it anymore, but there are people who have been drinking their own urine for 20+ or 30+ years and claim they are fine. i guess it's ok unless you have high heavy metal content in your body and as long as you have a clean diet but nevertheless it's unnecessary. I do think though that if you have to survive with no drinking water available, looping all of your urine for that period of time will drastically increase your chances of survival.

I did urine therapy for months. My conclusions are: -If you have bad gut health, it may or may not help manage problems. You have to find out for yourself. -If you have good gut health, you don't need to drink it. -If you have bad gut health, urine therapy won't fix the root cause of the problem. The only way to fix the root cause is to work with a competent nutritionist, take the tests, and take the specific treatment for your specific problem. Don't wing it with gut issues. You'll have to take tests like these: https://gojimanstore.myshopify.com/collections/test-kits Benefits of urine therapy (my experience): -I stopped using toothpaste and i only brush with a little pinch of baking soda on the toothbrush. It's enough to keep my teeth clean. And i used to rinse my mouth with urine for a few months. And what i noticed is that my breath didn't stink anymore. My mouth flora has rebalanced. Now, is it because of the urine, baking soda or just simply not using toothpaste? I can't say. But it's nice to know that no matter how much i go without brushing my teeth in a day, my mouth won't stink like shit when i talk to someone. (Even my morning breath smells ok, like not horrible XD) -Also, i found that massaging some urine into my scalp in the shower keeps my dandruff (which is also from gut issues) in control for about 4-7 days. Anywhere else on the skin it has a really good hydrating effect too. -Overall it's like a good open-mindedness and self-love exercise. Because urine is clean. It's not a waste product (waste products are going through the back door, the liver, and sweat), it's just a way for the body to temporarily store all the nutrients it cannot store immediately. But again, don't drink urine as a substitute for fixing your gut issues. Be smart.

No, it's the opposite. You have to "break it" whatever "it" is

Then he wouldn't have made the video :)) he knows that he can't stop us trying to "save him" or whatever. if he hadn't said that then he would've been spammed much more, i'm sure. But now we can actually have respectful conversations about this. And to me it's clearly a digestive issue, since the obvious negative response is after he eats. Is the Hashimoto's somehow related to those digestive issues? i can't say, really. But From what he said in the video, he didn't mention any specific gut tests besides the endoscopy and blood tests, heavy metal tests and whatever laundry-list of tests doctors typically have you take. https://gojimanstore.myshopify.com/collections/test-kits So for the third time, with the risk of getting banned/reported or just annoying you, @Leo Gura i'm telling you this guy really knows his shit. He actually understands the gut. You have the money, just talk to him and try these tests out IF of course you haven't done that already. The problem with bacteria that is where it should not be is that when the circumstances are less than favorable, they encapsulate and just stay there until they are fed again. These problems DO NOT go away with any amount of fasting, any amount of breathing work, or any "letting things heal on their own" trust me, i've been trying for the last 4-5 years, not even urine therapy, NOTHING works for these kinds of problems! So don't only take the tests, but actually follow Gojiman's treatment, don't EVER try to solve the problem on your own!

I just wanna start by saying that i am not vegan or biased towards t, it's just that this guy has really sort of cracked the code to this shit, because he treats vegans, and people with gut issues typically have problems eating fruits and veggies and plants in general, and vegans eat a lot of plants (duh) There are SO many possible causes gut issues that my conclusion from my own 5 year journey of debilitating gut issues and nutrition/health research is that only a really exhaustive gut check like he suggests is gonna get to the root of it. You can't wing it with these sort of things. I'm currently gathering money to take these tests. Look at these people that he has helped: There are more, you can check out his channel for yourselves. As many (oh, so many) other people, they were told that the varying issues they had were not treatable, that they would have to live with them and so on. And in most cases, doctors have no idea of what tests you should actually take, it's like we're in the stone age of gut health, really... Please be open minded and consider taking these tests if you have any persistent gut issues, and for the love of God don't self-treat these things, work with someone like Gojiman who actually understands these things!

Leo, the only thing i would have you try is a consultation with Gojiman. No dietary change, no supplement, just try talking to this guy on his site, explain to him how you feel and at least see if he can help you. He responds very quickly on the little chat window. I think by this point you have nothing to lose.

I just started following Damien Echols on YT and started reading Liber Null & Psychonaut by Peter J Carroll. Really interesting stuff!

@Leo Gura I am curious if you did the tests that this man is talking about. I am also curious if you would give him a try.

Just like there are 7 chakras, 7 notes in a musical octave, 7 colors in the rainbow, 7 days in a week etc. there are 7 densities of light. Every density has some ingenious, unique way in which the One knows itself. In the first density The One is asleep (the elements, physical matter). In the second density, the One is dreaming (plants, animals etc.). In the third density, the One awakens (human beings). The 4th density is all about love, the 5th is all about wisdom, the 6th is all about the balance between love and wisdom, and 7th density beings are basically with one foot in the Absolute and one in the Relative (quite unimaginable). We currently are in the 3rd density. What we call demons and angels are, in a way, our future selves, that have graduated 3rd density. The ones that decided they want to skip love are what we call demons. So they are not good or bad, they are just like the left and right hemispheres of the brain. Now, it is true that a spirit that is causing trouble is not necessarily a demon, it may be for example a recently deceased relative or loved one that is desperately trying to cling to physicality, but in my experience it's pretty tricky trying to figure out this stuff through this route, of understanding angels, demons, physicality, basically the feminine side of God. The mythology and symbolism side, if you will. I only starded researching this stuff after several awakenings, and all the notions i had beforehand only hindered my awakening process and created a lot of doubts and fear. That is ok, God knows what it's doing, lol, but my advice to @Jay Ray is to focus more on the masculine, eastern, non-dual, seeing through the illusion type of thing before dabbling INTO the illusion, if that makes sense

Get gymnastic rings, 3 kettlebells (16kg, 20kg & 24kg) even one is enough for the beginning, install a pull-up bar somewhere or have a place from which you can hang yourself and the rings from. Focus on a 1 to 1 ratio of strength and mobility sets and also a 1 to 1 ratio of pushing and pulling movements. Strengthen your joints, tendons & ligaments.

Spirits with negative polarities aka demons feed on your attention. So reasoning with them is only giving them more power, because you are still playing their game, they are still tricking you into GIVING your attention to them. They cannot posses you, they can only trick you into letting them posses you. Ego, like anything, has levels of complexity - gross and subtle aspects to it. Essentially, every "i" thought is ego, and you can't avoid having "i" thoughts as long as your body is alive, because at some point, "i" will have to eat, shit, drink, piss etc. Of course there are i thoughts that distract you from love, and that is what spirituality conventionally calls ego, and you can still have i thoughts being completely dis-identified with them - that's a "healthy", or awake ego - but when you are in that state, the boundary between the ego and everything else dissolves - you are aware of your Self, which is Presence/Love/God/Emptiness/Everything/Truth/Infinity, the you that doesn't change etc. So what you can actually DO is LOVE them. LOVE EVERYTHING! Negatively polarized beings cannot stand love, that's how they have to be in order to remain negatively polarized - so just love, love, love! And Loving kinda comes together with selflessness - you stop making the whole situation about you, and you actually make it about others - in this case, it's about helping those so called "demons" accept love (because they will have to sooner or later) - and the way you do that is through surrender - by actually having the attitude of "ok, i accept you staying as long as you like! If God accepts you being here, then i accept you too! I LOVE YOU!" But you really have to mean it authentically, and that can be tricky - because they will leave if you do that, but you can't do it while still wishing them to leave. You must learn to truly accept them - this means accepting the possibility of your insanity, and that relaxes you, because you can then stop that desperate trying to figure out if you actually are insane or not (because that's what you're actually doing, and that is the insanity, you are asking yourself if you are insane or not) and making things more impersonal, explaining things through demons and angels and shit can be helpful. But it's you, everything is you. There is nothing that isn't you. I'll give you one last point that helped me a lot, and that is recognizing that no THING, as unpleasant as it may be, doesn't block my awareness. No thing can stop me from being aware of the Presence that IT is happening in. On the contrary, EVERY THING can be used as proof of Presence, because no thing can be Present without Presence (does that make sense?) So if your Self is Presence itself, then it doesn't matter ego or no ego, demon or angel, they are all a celebration of the Presence that pervades and precedes them all. So move your attention on the fact that you are aware of something, not on the something itself. What you are can NEVER appear.

I'm from Romania and since i was little, i heard around me other romanians complain about how young talented folk keep leaving the country with the reason that it's shitty here, and saying that them leaving is actually the reason for why the country is shitty. So i was kinda indoctrinated, i guess, to think that it's bad/selfish to leave the country. Firstly i was wondering what thoughts you have on that. I feel like my main focus is deepening my Presence, and for that i don't need anything from my circumstances. But for my self-actualization and LP i feel that where you live and stuff like that makes sort of a big difference. I'm 24 now, and i really resonate with Leo's idea of not staying more than 5 years in any one city at a time. So i was hoping for some suggestions for some top countries in the world that i should consider moving to.
