Any position you cling to is dogma. The dogma of actualized.org are positions like "I am God", "Consciousness is the ultimate reality", "Understanding is the most important thing", "You can understand ultimate reality", "Without psychedelics you can't attain deep realizations", "I (Leo) am the most awake person on the planet" etc. It's full of dogma.

Everyone on this forum is more awake than Leo. Leo is the least awake person here.

Where exactly did you ask me what type of practices I have done? I didn't necessarily want you to stand up to Leo. I was just curious about your reaction. I don't consider myself enlightened or awake so I don't need to prove anything in that regard. I'm also not someone without any practice experience whatsoever who's just reading spiritual books or something. I did a 40 day meditation retreat, 8+ hours of meditation every day. I've sat and stared at the wall 3+ hours in one sitting, not 30 minutes. I did a bunch of psychedelic retreats etc. So your "insight" into what I've done or haven't done is completely off.

Whether I have direct experience or not you have no clue. So shut the fuck up.

I took Leo's post and replaced "enlightened" with "awake". So you can direct your message to Leo. And you should stop playing a psychic, pretending to know things you don't. Because you're plain wrong.

For you to be "awake" God has to imagine that you one day you "became awake". You have a whole story that you tell yourself of how it happened, when it happened, where it happened, and what it means.

These "I am the only one awake" posts get more desperate as time goes on.

Some teachers are just bad and the way they teach confuses people. You can take action and change your life, all of that happens without a separate doer. You won't find that idea in Buddhism or traditional Advaita Vedanta. It's a new invention by half-baked "gurus".

The awakening process can trigger latent mental issues which needs to be cleared out of the system, but such states have nothing to do with awakening itself. It's just latent karma being purged.

You don't need to get rid of them. Just understanding on a deep level that they won't ultimately fulfill you is enough. I think most people who pursue awakening do, otherwise they wouldn't even be interested in it.

Suffering is the price of ignorance, not the prize of existence. If everybody was in touch with their pure essence none of this shit would happen.

The fact you get so triggered about it means solipsism is a belief you have and you have doubts about it.

A relationship that is based on you making a girl feel strong emotions is not going to last. It's a superficial relationship. Essentially, it's like learning to press certain buttons in her brain which causes her brain to produce certain hormones and makes her a drug addict (her drug being you). The moment you're tired of doing it she'll start looking for another drug dealer. And you'll get tired of it because it's unnatural.

Jeff's message is an antidote to spiritual bypassing, that's where his focus is. He's not really concerned with awakening.
