The point is that whatever field you want to pursue , awakening will make you better at it. Unless your field is unethical.

Seals are my favorite animal so I'm glad they're getting more popular thanks to Neil. cats are a close second

I've been psychotic and there are def some superficial similarities but I'd say when I've been psychotic it's very much the ego being God at the exclusion of others whereas in awakening the ego isn't present at all so it's just God. Also awakening is rly peaceful psychosis is pure chaos, at least for me. To be clear I think psychedelics can do BOTH so I really am cautious with them now and haven't tripped in months.

Logically I can see how fasting could or potentially wpuld starve certain illnesses, particularly cancer, but I'm not sure about an autoimmune disorder.

I now sprinkle kriya into my meditation rather than having it as the main practice for this reason. Honestly I think it works just as well that way as when I did a lot of it, seriously I notice all the same benefits. I think headaches mean ur storing a lot of prana in ur third eye which is the point, ur at carrying capacity.

It only takes one candle to illuminate a whole room. But you don't necessarily have to say anything you can "blend in" externally and stand out internally.

Do nothing .

Do you say this because you yourself think Buddhism is nonsense or because Leo said so? I ask because what you're asking for is essentially living in a monastery . You don't have to become a monk, plenty will take lay practitioners for a few months to a year or whatever you want. More fundamentally tho, it sounds like you're just not ready and that's fine. I wasn't ready when I was 23, but by 26 I was. Though perhaps I guess in a certain sense psychedelics were the thing that "forced me" bc after my deepest trip I just started meditating every day , I couldn't not do it, and I've been riding that wave since.

The field of consciousness will be there forever but you can stop calling it "my perspective" , that's my two cents. Like animals, they are the field of consciousness but there isn't an "I" to claim it, and because of that there is only perfect flow, perfect presence.

@enchanted Cognitive dissonance. The folk metaphysics of westerners is a mix of dualism and materialism.

Re: the highest form of game is God Hell yeah. Awakening to my unborn chadhood. The spiritual raps have been writing themselves lately.

Human culture doesn't eveolve fast enough. Ai would continue to get better IF humans could recreate the entire past two thousand years of creativity in a few years but it can't so ai trained on the good shit but now it's primarily training on (some good shit) but mostly bullshit .

Let it burn so they come begging hehe

The music I've been making is insane Ai couldnt even get close, but I still use ai all the time.

Leo I'm in a state of mental health crisis following 6 months of daily kriya and then 2 months of hardcore meditation including retreats . At what point should one stop practicing for awhile?

Elephant seals are bigger than great white sharks . Pretty cool normally you think of shark as eating seal. And leopard seals are like mammalian mosasaurs. https://www.reddit.com/r/TheDepthsBelow/s/6qh3kIMFoR

Watched this one for the first time the other day, I'm now motivated to fall in love with my life. Video topics could be practical or more philosophical but I'm leaning more towards practical at the moment.

Profundity is relative , right now I'm not on 5 meo so it doesn't matter , all I have is this.

Get a dog or learn how to play a musical instrument haha

I can dm you about that are you in the US

I admire your commitment to learning game but do u think this plan is sustainable ? 5-7 hours is a lot r u planning on moving ? I'm in the suburb of a big city and I kinda even regret that bc the 30 minute drive to downtown kills momenum and spontaneity especîally. Imo the ideal game situation is step outside and meet girls that's what im shooting for after current lease. to ur original q of course

I would imagine the most advanced spiritual techniques are kept hidden . Like kriya yoga is cool but I have to assume there's something more powerful that hasn't seen the light of day. If you can do kriya yoga it's good enough meditation you can grind really hard and get similar results .

I would like to do more than 10-15 minutes of pranyama but here's what happens when I do: 1) splitting headache (like take me out for the day) 2) paranoia , perception of autonomous entities usually negative (mild but still concerning) lately for this reason I've pretty much exclusively been doing regular zen meditation and Maha mudra .

Your sessions seem reallly long, how much of that 80 minutes do you spend doing pranyama ? I only do 20 to 25, it breaks down to about 10 minute of Nadi shodana and mahamudra and 10 minutes of pranyama , followed by meditation . I find if I do much more pranyama than that it gets trippy / challenging .
