levani

@Michael569 cause food is good you know, sugar cravings etc last time i did it i yo yo'd back real fast

i think @How to be wise is referring to this bit, which i disagree with so far i think but the video you sent it dope bro. It is the most important self help habit so far which i am aware of, i might bro wrong though innit @How to be wise thanks brother

looks good

bro i'm not a Leo or some wizard at diets but from my experience, fasting is the best for ϟ levels, my ϟ levels were titties when i fasted for 6 days and mental acuity and so msny benefits, so many pains gone imm fasting again the day after tomorrow gonna fast till i hit 10% 2/3 days salt water fasting then one meal a day then repeat, if i can go longer i go longer watch snakediet guy on youtube, the one whi shouts, he's mad reputable watch leo's videos on diet too he got some good pointers

#8 skipped #9 best meditation so far, fears arose of demons or spirits in my room, gave in once but only once so that's good felt like an orgasmic feeling behind right eye half way through felt orgasmic in my third eye area/between eyebrows - i'm guessing that's what this flow state is or whatever, it fealt really good and i just kept going into it I guess - wondering if this was a mistake ? it's a sensation and i was aware of it, stayed aware so i don't see it as wrong but correct me if i'm wrong 20 minutes btw

is there any reputable spiritual/non dual teachers around London or any neighbouring countries ? I wanna take this to the next level and i dont wanna make as many mistakes. I was thinking of asking frank yang ?

@Danioover9000 yes bro frank yang said the same but befote your post and frank yang's video i found this to be minsteeously true "don't do cardio" - it's just a sales pitch cardio is META and i'm running every day/night now

@Eren Eeager well ? was it the topic you made earlier where you faced god / suffering ?

#7 easier to be in the moment still lots of thoughts saw some weird shapes in my closed eye lids state, when they arose the thoughts fucked off more than normally still unsure about how awareness itself isn't a thought

topman, best of luck broo

@Natasha the thing is when i was fasting I literally automatically woke up after 2-2.5 hours of sleep mad recovered and had my usual 20-30m nap during the day and i felt like a daisy.. and a half @Village true bro

so many people say 7/8 hours but bulletproof says 6.5h is optimal if above 16 years or age, they also say sleeping 5 hours is healthier than 8 hours and sleeping longer than 8 is damaging i'm 6'3, around 90-100kg / if that makes a difference

#6 20 mins was harder to focus on the spare between thoughts today fear arose once and i opened my eyes (gave in) one song i like got stuck in my head for half the meditation found a comfortable position to meditate in - back against wall and cross legged

@Red-White-Light i respect that, you just made it sound like he was the only one like a king of all teachers or something, like a cult ?

#5 20m today, lots of thoughts, not sure how to make them less frequent, i guess by being aware between the thoughts trying to feel my sensations as much as possible the silent frequency ear buzzing sound is quite easy to focus on I guess so i kept my attention / awareness there 1 fear arose one time in the right ear as if something wanted to whisper in my ear or some weird demon shit so i gave in once and opened my eyes but kept going after that i will now do 5 minutes of concentration; pressure between fingers

so as far as I understand concentration is basically focusing on one sensation at a time for X amount of minutes meditation is about letting go and staying present and being aware, right ? But if you have a meditation object is it the same thing ? for example I know when you are meditating you can observe your thoughts and be aware of them in the present moment but when you are concentrating you are trying to not observe anything and just concentrate on one sensation BUT you still have a meditation object when meditating so what's the point of having a meditation object if you're not concentrating but meditating ? don't you try to bring back awareness/concentration to the meditation object ?

@Kalki Avatar Game theory: A) be around a shaman who has access to all Jhanas and losten to gurus B) just listen to gurus having someone like @nymphofthenet who has access to all jhanas can speed me up loke crazy

@Striving for more bro i know people rant against sadghuru but youtube: sadghuru sleep and watch a few videos on it also just experiment with your sleep it doesn't have to be monophadic, you can have 6 x 20 minite sleeps during 24h and feel better than 1 x 8h sleep there is biphasic sleep, triphasic, etc etc google: different sleep cycles and go from there also i'd ask michael, he's into health i think

@Red-White-Light bro, ofcourse not, you're super closed minded and opinionated and you're sucking up to Leo too much. A spiritual teacher in my real life, a reputable one, one which may even hve more xp, awareness and knowledge than Leo could point out basic mistakes and supercharge / speed me up with some good stuff @Kalki Avatar topman, thank you brother

@Striving for more also sleep is not about quantity it's about knowledge, psychology, quality and a lot of other things i fucked with sleep for a few years but i can only speak for myself, everyone is different

@Michael569 his group sample is not 7 billion people @Striving for more i feel absolutely shit if i sleep for more than 5.5 hours (even if i want to sleep more) now a days i think i'm quite happy with 3-3.5 but this isn't a dick measuring contest, everyone's different genetically and whatever else

@King Merk trust me daddy i understand, looking at the river vs getting in the river thinking about sex vs having it i understand, but i ain't entering shit with an unhealthy mind

I have never tried psychedelics. I have overdosed immensely on MDMA one time in Fabric in London (nightclub). but I know some of you do and some of you don't consider it a psychedelic, it's kind of like a psychedelic. My question to you is - do your thoughts and feelings and inner imaginations reflect in the real world or wherever you are during your higher state of consciousness whilst you're on psychedelics ? what is my long-term fears, even though I know they are not real in my every day to day "real" life are demons and exorcism (the exorcism of emily rose) kind if shit, so the questions are would that reflect in real life whilst I'm on psychedelics if I have the thought come up in my head and question 2 is if the answer is yes how do I handle it whilst being on the psychedelic trip - is there something like an adrenaline shot to get out of it or ?

@SamueLSD top

i think understanding comes in 3 different ways intellectual experience realisation i think awakening may have something to do more with the last one as it's the final level of understanding i myself have never had an awakening (i think)
