Breakingthewall

there are two options. You are either in the conceptual mind, or outside the conceptual mind. The important thing is to understand what the conceptual mind is and how it catches you. The conceptual mind is a machine for creating relativity. every concept is in opposition to another. If we admit that reality is unlimited, this means that it is absolute: it has no opposite. then the relative is illusory, only appearance. Any concept is relative, therefore it is ultimately not real, it just seems that way. Even understanding this, getting out of the conceptual mind is difficult, since everything I have said is conceptual mind as well. If you think: then if I go out, breakingthewall doesn't exist? that is conceptual mind. you cannot get out of the conceptual mind and still hold on to concepts. No. You can't parachute and stay on the plane. You are either on the plane, or in the air. Being outside the conceptual mind does not mean that you become stupid, on the contrary, that is where pure intelligence flows, where clarity begins, only that you cannot use relative concepts, not even one. If you use them, you're back in. You have to free your mind from conceptual compartmentalization, and thinking "only I exist" is conceptual compartmentalization since it is opposed to "others also exist", and you have already compartmentalized reality, it is no longer absolute, it is divided into two, and This is false, illusion, you are lost. You will immediately divide it into 4, 8, etc., and you are back in your mind, as always.

only the absolute is real, the relative is illusion. nothing that has an opposite is real, nothing that can be affirmed is real, the only possible definition is negative: no finite

good points. I would say that people from the West are unhappier in the sense of being further away from themselves, more alienated, childish, capricious, crazy. but at the same time they are more empathetic. Christian culture says: love your neighbor. help him. This creates a stronger, more united and more alive society. but the Western paradigm is completely contrary to awakening, the concept is king, without concept there is nothing. The Christian religion is totally conceptual, Eastern religions give rise to the dissolution of the ego. So would be nice if both integrate the best of each one.

Exactly. That whole thing about only you existing is completely absurd. That is to say something from the conceptual mind, because the concept "your only exists" in the conceptual mind, outside the conceptual mind there is only pure existence, there is no you, no others, no god, no nothing, there is the infinite now existing, You can't label it because if you do, you are creating the mental barrier that you precisely want to dissolve. All the concepts exist in opposition of another concept. Reality is absolute, so has not opposite, so all the concepts are false .It is obvious, without understanding this, there are only slaves of the mind. Freedom is out of the mind.

Realize that conceptualizing is experience. There is no conceptualizing or experience, but rather the conceptualizing activity is within the experience. You have to understand that it is a human activity of survival, the content of the conceptualization at a metaphysical or mystical level does not mean anything. you cannot understand reality with the content of the mental stream because the mental stream is part of reality. What happens is that you are attached to it because it is your survival tool, you need it like breathing, that's why everyone is trapped in it. What you have to do is focus the mind just in the survival, and be able to get out of it at will. Psychedelics stop it temporarily, they are like a child's float, first you jump into the pool with the float, and then you can be without it.

No , there is the conceptual bubble, the mental flow that isolate you, a human evolutive function, and you can break that bubble and open up to infinity. There is not an intermedium point. Or you are in the bubble, or out of the bubble. One day I did a psychedelic and at a certain point, I was out. the infinity flowing....shit....this is... incredible, freedom. Only 1 minute. It's terrifying, the mind needs grips, it can't be like this, it's panicked, it needs to interpret. No friend, you have to give that up. Then I started doing psychedelics again and again with the sole purpose of getting out of the bubble, out of the prison. For some months I did psychedelics every day, 5meo DMT 3 times in a day, next day lsd, etc. It was imperative to get out of that bubble. the bubble is death, the opening is life. little by little I educated my mind to be able to be in the open field, without clinging to anything. It's like climbing without a rope, at first it's horrible, impossible, but you can educate yourself for it. Now I'm like this almost all the time. All that stuff about I'm God, I'm alone, I'm creating, etc., is a mental flow bubble. It is precisely the prison you want to get out of (if you really want to). Outside the prison there is no god, no loneliness, nor anything you can grab. This is reality being, naked existence. It is the flow without limit. You can only abandon yourself to it, and clarity begins to occur, since you are reality. but the clarity is now, you can't memorize it. Memory is the prison, false grip. So maybe Leo is acceding to some kind of clarity, but he can't explain it because he's too used to work from the conceptual mind. We will see.

Here people are quick to judge Leo as unenlightened and no one tries to understand a guy who a few years ago they thought was a genius. I see that many have very wrong ideas about what enlightenment is, and they are very attached to them. enlightenment is not knowing something or knowing that you are god. Friend, most of what you say that are parroting Leo without even realizing it. There is no such thing as enlightenment, there is the breaking of the bubble of conceptual mental flow that keeps us isolated, and once that bubble is broken, true perception begins, just normal existence without the human toxicity. Because normal existence is infinity flowing . but here everyone, except for very few exceptions, is completely attached to the conceptual. and leo was one of them. but it seems that it has finally left the conceptual. It has taken him a lot because his mind is very structured, but at last it seems that he has achieved it. He calls it alien, dancing penises or whatever, it refers to direct vision, without a filter, to breaking with the human garbage that surrounds us. When he says that enlightenment is imaginary, he means that all this nonsense of I am God imagining reality is imaginary (all of this my interpretation, who knows) all the content of Leo is imaginary, mental flow, bubble of isolation. Nobody has the courage here to let go of all the grips and be groundless in infinity, everyone is hungry of knowledge, grips, security. That's greed, the opposite of awakening. Awakening is to let go everything, no mind, just let the cosmos in you dancing.

Not necessarily, you can be totally empty of shit if you want . You just need courage to release the grips that you are grabbing to have a feeling of balance. It's quite simple, but extremely difficult until you do. You need real courage, real surrender, real generosity.

There are only two possibilities: are you now totally open to the infinity that you are, or are you limited by the bubble of mental flow that you are creating by fear. One is an state of openess, with zero resistance, totally flow, without anything to grab. Other is a state of limitation, with mental concept, grabbing imaginary handles because the fear don't let you to expand yourself to infinity without limits.

You dont get what I'm saying. Natural or artificial awakenings are nothing, They are just mental illusions, they mean nothing. reality is infinity now. It is always infinity now. There is nothing you have to realize, you just have to be the infinite now. That's what you are, always, but you are isolated by your incessant activity of limitation, by the mental flow that you are creating without stopping. You don't understand me because you can't get out of there. your awakening is more mental flow. break the flow now, and face the vertigo of infinity now. It is freedom, permanent joy, naked existence.

For me any awakening that is not exactly now means nothing, just an idea. There is only one point in spirituality, total openness now. Your heart must be fully open, your intention must always be to see without a filter. clinging to a past awakening is madness, it is something purely conceptual. Enlightenment is now or never. That is why here we talk so much about terms such as only you existing, mystical love, etc. all that is conceptual mind. Reality is the limitless openness that this moment is, and there is nothing to think about because any thought is a mental bubble that isolates you. you can only drop the ego mind and be, open your heart and look into the face of infinity now. then clarity begins to occur

You don't get anything, What you do is go through the bubble that isolates you created by the mental flow that has fear as its substance, and then you are exposed to infinity, because you are that. You live like this permanently, facing infinity, now.

It is not a question of advances, nor realizations, nor degrees of consciousness, it is being completely open now to what reality is, without any barriers.

Well, I believe that we are all clear and know how to differentiate between the conceptual, mental maps, and direct reality. Do you really need that strategy to eliminate spiritual garbage from your mind? This automatically implies that your content is influenced by acquired ideas. Spiritual ideas have only one function, to help the mental structure to completely dissolve without the addictive need to hold on to anything. From here, we start exploring. If not, everything is corrupted

There are degrees of clarity. in fact normal human perception is a miserable degree compared to what is possible. Here everyone has drunk from Leo's teachings and now everyone thinks he is totally deceived. Sure there is a lot of value to be discovered in what is being cooked

I don't know what is in Ralston mind, For me enlightenment is to completely break form, limitation, and become unlimited, and then realize the true nature of existence. There is no word that defines this, but if you want to call it metaphysical love, ok. But it is obvious that if you completely transcend the form, what remains is not something explainable or conceptualizable, it is total infinity. the true nature of existence. that is enlightenment. After this, if you want to explore the possibilities of existence, it is something absolutely interesting, but awakening, with capital letters or not, is one: infinite. You cannot say that I am deceived because I do not say anything definite that could be a deception, it is an obvious realization, something that is always there, what the absence of limits is.

I don't say that you are wrong, just you could explain what is wrong, or what should be transcended in enlightenment, not just saying: enlightenment is stupid. What is enlightenment according you? Why is limited?

A brief psychotic break due to extreme experiences is normal, but reality is not psychotic, it is completely sane, because sanity just means aligned with reality. insanity is a human mental deviation of evasion. if the levels of consciousness are infinite as you say, there are no levels higher than others, there can only be more or less alignment, more or less distortion. Enlightenment is being completely aligned with reality, it is not stupidity, it is human evolution. So, if you are an explorer who wants to reach the source of the nile of consciousness, without caring about the dangers, perfect, admirable, but why disqualify everything else? It is not necessary, and not accurate, it's a misunderstanding . Enlightenment is one thing, exploring another. Both could be , and should be compatible. If you explore the conciousness without being aligned, seems that it's sure you are going to follow dangerous and probably wrong paths

I have always thought that you were pointing to something never seen before, but your attitude again and again points to a kind of psychotic break. Since you seem an extremely smart person, the fact that you seem extremely stupid lately makes me think of some kind of strategy, a game, and that at some point something great will come up... but then, again and again just vagueness, negativity, self-aggrandizement... Why not explain yourself thoroughly and transparently at once? Or is there really nothing to explain? enigma. Why destructively disqualify traditions like Buddhism without giving even the slightest explanation of what is wrong with Buddhism? or repeat over and over again that enlightenment is stupid without even explaining what enlightenment is and why it is stupid? There are many people watching. Is your intention to appear senile? Why?

The answer is simple: break your limits.

Everything you say makes sense to you but it doesn't to me. I know the way to approach the reality that you adopt, the dream, God, etc. It's just an approach, reality is reality, we agree, right? Approaches are just mental frames that help us communicate ideas. Well, the approach: God is imagining reality, seems wrong to me. There is no god doing anything, nor hiding anything, nor playing hide-and-seek with himself, there is infinity flowing. This is my realization. There is no subject or object, no actor or action, there is reality. Calling it a dream doesn't make any sense to me. If that is my realization, I simply communicate it. do not get defensive as if a heretic attacks your dogma, simply refute what you consider wrong Btw, Try to see how much is truly original in your vision and how much is adopted from ideas heard. Imagine that your mind is totally blank of spiritual concepts. What would be your vision of reality?

then forget the word dream. when you dream at night, you are not dreaming, there is no night, no dreamer, just reality happening, the same as during the day, you call it a dream because you have the idea that you went to sleep and dreamed, the same as when Leo He says that reality is imaginary, God dreaming. the imaginary is god. the reality is this, now

Yes, you need to twist logic to explain that reality is love, because first you have to define what love means, and then affirm that absolute reality is specifically that, but of course, it is not normal love, but mystical love, so what is it? mystical love? wake up and find out for yourself , etc

Yes, I already read that Leo says that enlightenment is illusory. Then you did a clumsy and basic argumentation to show that you reached the same conclusion by yourself.
