Yes to my knowledge people who are lactose intolerant and consume milk products without lactose are good. But yeah the heavy metal problem might be a concern. Other protein powders like plant protein powder are unfortunately even more likely to contain heavy metals. Although not as convenient many regular foods are a great source of protein as well and can completely cover you. Eggs are just one example. Just do a little google search on look for what you like. You can even do it vegetarian/vegan if you prefer that.

Haha that’s you in the 0.2%. My poor body is probably only in the top 10% ?. But I did incorporate to much sugar lately and got bad skin from it. To get over my desire for sweetness I bought sugar free soda but I don’t think that’s a good solution anymore but I cant think of other good alternatives. I get what your saying though.

I listened to a summary and it says the same as you. „It’s great for weight loss and weight loss makes you healthier. Also the chemicals are tested a lot before they are allowed to be mixed in food.“ But I am still skeptical and even fearful about it. I got small headaches after I drank a liter of diet soda the last 2 times. I feel like there has to be quite a lot (of not good stuff) going on in your body in order to feel a headache. I have already got ADHD to deal with, I don’t want to loose more cognitive functionality. And I fear that maybe their effect on your health is very sneaky and not that easily traceable. Maybe similar to heavy metals where small amounts of them in your body are falsely considered healthy. Could they attatch to your body and avoid detoxing from the body like heavy metals do @Michael569 ?

It’s just hard to find people who have it all figured out or at least actually seem to be somewhat contempt with life. Many people look like they just come out of a grave and the people that appear to be happy mostly wear a facade and you see that they are just rotten at the insight if you spend more time with them. If you are depressed yourself you won’t attract the rare gems of people who actually found an authentic source of happiness within themself and you don’t even want to bother them. But these are the only people who you would respect advice from. What would the advice from all the unhappy people around me be: „Just get a decent paying job, find some friends you can drink with at the weekend and don’t question your existence to much as this will only make you depressed.“ That’s not a life plan. Fuck off. That’s what my position was at the time but it hasn’t changed much. People can comfort you in small things and you can comfort them but the big questions are up to you. I think Leo is in a complex dilemma situation. He does need to make spirituality look attractive, otherwise people just won’t do it and on the other hand of course he should teach people to prioritize mastering their survival skills first but in a way where one keeps the opportunity for deeper satisfaction open and not get lost in endless materialistic pleasure seeking. I don’t think there is a good middle ground. What we also have to consider is that Leo shouldn’t place himself in the middle of these two parties but more bias in the direction of spirituality because spiritual sources are rare compared to practical self help advice so the typical viewer might balance an ultra spiritual video from Leo out with a stage orange success oriented video that he watches right after. Also the loss for people that neglect their practical problems is probably far less then the loss for people that never access awakening which is another reason why he should be more bias towards spirituality.

I dont know if I agree or not. On the one hand yes of course he could spread spiritual love in the real world right now and bring himself in danger because people aren’t open minded enough. But it would be the most authentic/out of the gut/not devilish controlled way to do things and might awake people the most. On the other hand idk if this is the right message to send. It kind of gives me spiritual suicide vibes. That would be the highest form of love of course but maybe it’s better to evolve humanity spiritually in a way where we quietly integrate it in our day to day lives until spirituality becomes mainstream.

How? That doesn’t make any sense. Stay polite. Even if it’s meant as a joke.

There are many ways to screw a vegan diet up. Are you sure that you did everything right?

I am a huge fan of microdosing. It helps me immensely in social situations where it completely transforms me from being in my head all the time to very playful, compassionate, extroverted. I have ADHD and I discovered yesterday that I can boost my concentration with it as well. I was never as awake in my last lecture where I microdosed beforehand then in all the previous lectures in the 2 years and it gives me the confidence that I can finish my studies. It’s just that microdosing is so incredible helpful to me that I fear that I might develope a psychological addiction. I also told my mom about this discovery and she is now concerned about me that I might develope an addiction. I have looked at a few articles but they don’t really say much. Just that it’s early in research and you should only do it in cooperation with a doctor and be careful with it..blah blah What do you think are the dangers of microdosing and how can I avoid them?

Evolutionary it would make sense that men are more often extreme then women. In most cases being extreme probably isn’t good for your survival but if that extreme is good for your survival that extreme dude could impregnate hundreds of women. The risk reward ratio for women probably isn’t worthed. Chances are higher that an extreme women won’t benefit survival and even if it does then this women can only have so many babies. I saw a film about chimpanzees recently. There was one male chimpanzee who didn’t have much going for him in terms of strength, appearance, status, .. but he did have the white stuff in the eyes that normally only humans have. He got a lot of attention because other chimps could track his eye movement and therefore could use him as an information source of potential danger. He reproduced by far the most, probably because the females knew that this trait would be very useful.

That describes me. On my last 5meo dmt trip (not breakthrough range) the clear thought hit me that the reason I started spirituality and philosophy 4 years ago is because I am unable to get into an intimate relationship for the past 8 years because I have some serious fear of deeply connecting with people and I was to proud to realize that. And I am looking for a way to compensate my pain. Leo did say in his older videos about enlightenment that enlightenment is pretty much the most important thing to focus on and that suffering and pain will be recontextualized and won’t have nearly the same effect on you. That you will never really be happy with worldly pleasures but with enlightenment you can just be still and happy. So yeah that does sound like the only way out for a person who is overtaxed by life.

Currently I only tried psylocibin (0.5 to 0.7g dried magic truffle with 1-2 days rest in between) but I will also try lsd and maybe other psychedelics if I can get them.

(If I have sexual or romantic intentions) That a girl put her head on my shoulder and I didn’t know how to respond happened to me multiple times. I feel like I should at the bare minimum show her that what she does is okay. I don’t know how though. You could probably go for a kiss on the head or something if your advanced?

I don’t think contemplation has much to do with thinking. I feel like a low iq person could still contemplate really well. It’s a way of holding and moving your awareness to and through things you want to understand better. It’s quite intense but it does generate first order truths. Obviously thoughts can still be used to stay or get on track. edit: I remember that I asked myself that question when I was a child. When I got to that answer I felt like I discovered a superpower because it’s so different then normal thinking and produces such intelligent results.

Yeah it is but in the turn of events it ended with me rejecting her. She broke my trust badly and I didn’t just forget about it like a sucker. I felt pretty bad about it for some days but maybe this ends up being a really good decision. Time will tell..

That’s the thing. Before physical escalation it could still be platonic liking in each other. Physical escalation tests what the true intentions are. It’s a lack of grounding in my social abilities. I would have a hard time recovering from a rejection because I would take it way to personally and would question my whole social understanding. I just need more experience in that specific area I guess. Do you remember the MDMA message thread I started. .. Yeah that story went on for some time ?. Yeah that’s true.

Sure I have to work on that for sure. Not just when it comes to women but people in general. I have a hard time feeling accepted due to trauma, lonely childhood etc. But my physical escalation is especially terrible. I can’t be confident in something when I don’t know how to do it at all. And physical escalation isn’t a beginner friendly subject, you can transform from a normal dude to a creep in a second if you don’t know how to do it at all.

So simple yet so genius ? That was the only thing I thought about last time but I was to big to reach her head comfortably. Yeah I know. It’s like I know exactly that I disappoint her in that moment but I don’t know how to act not creepy so I just freeze and feel horrible about it.

Yeah dude if you get 50 likes in a day you can call yourself super lucky. Of course the algorithm favours you at the start but still 50 likes is a lot for a guy. I don’t think I get 100 likes in a year and I would consider myself above average looking. Maybe I have to get more professional pictures idk. I think it’s just easier to socialize for women because there is way less expactation for females. Men on the other hand should lead, be dominant, be funny, etc. (should build an attractive personality) That’s not easy to build, it takes a lot of effort. There is far less expectations for women. If they don’t have an attractive personality that’s a lot more exceptable. And playing the weak link is easier anyways. Also if women fuck up, be awkward, creepy, strange, .. it’s not a big deal most of the time while if a guy does these things it’s far worse.

Well right now I try to use them as often as possible because they always have a use. But you build up a natural tolerance. If you do more your tolerance will rise and your next microdose won’t be as strong. I can’t stop that so there is my natural stop. Yeah I once almost fucked up badly before because I didn’t know how this would change my behaviour and I could have easily gotten into a club fight (it was a 2x microdose to be fair). Microdoses take so much worry away from me that they make me a bit naive and reckless. And they also take a lot of my filter away which has also produced an incredible awkward social situation ? But I feel like you can’t know how you will act in social settings from the comfort of your coach so for me its a bit about wisening up while I go.

Thanks I will look into it! nice. I don’t take other medicaments. Yeah I can relate to that. I am a bit of a "rock“ quite often. Psychedelics bring me in touch with my emotions a lot. All of a sudden I can be so funny and feel like I have the power to turn everything around because I feel like I am just a source of fun and I can attract everybody and am accepted by everybody. And my emotional intelligence works again and I can relate to the world around me. I was completely blind to the little suttle social games around me but now I am not only aware of it but also participate naturally. It’s like it gives me a sense like smell back. I thought about it this way. The danger of not socializing or of not getting my studies done is pretty high because that could seriously make me sick, depressed, etc. You have to compare that to the danger of becoming addicted to microdosing. Which isn’t really high plus not harmful to the body so I will continue to take them.

The lower the developement of a being the more it runs on autopilot (evolutionary trial and error memory). Things that happen through autopilot seem far more complex then things that happen without autopilot. In a sense humans seem to be the least developed because they are the most developed. But higher developement builds on top of lower developement or you could say it connects multiple lower intelligence sources. A human for example is a higher intelligence because it is a superset of many lower intelligences (microbiomes, bacteria, organs, ..). So a human intelligence is not only the human thoughts but also all the lower intelligences that are integrated as well.

Haven’t thought about that. But right now I only microdose psylocibin and lsd which are both legal so the source isn’t some shady place.

My life IS (mostly) boring without psychedelics right now. I am working on improving my situation and psychedelics help me create an existence I like sober ?.

Ridiculous it’s 0,0012%

Depends on the level I guess. If you ask Leo he will tell you that he is the only one on this forum who is truly god realized.
