Something Funny

AI generated qi gong follow alongs incoming?

@Leo Gura I agree with @Thought Art in that I don't really see how creating AI songs translates to combining this work work with creativity and art. At least in my mind, it would require a deep understanding of this work and a deep mastery of creativity and art. You can create an AI song about spiral dynamics (or any of your videos really) after running into them and watching the channel for one day. No serious work in either fields is necessary. I agree that, as a proof of concept, it would be cool if people started integrated spirituality and consciousness in their actual art. Regarding the song itself, I like the tune but the lyrics are too blatant and crude in my opinion. You can tell that AI just used some keywords from spiral dynamics to create them vs using some more deeper subtle metaphors and poetry or possibly even just sound, without voice at all. Trying to fit all of spiral dynamics in 4 minute song didn't do them any favors either. And I think this actually highlights the issue of the lack of artistry, a living person, with good mastery of his craft and understanding of spiral dynamics would probably go for a different format. I've seen artists do whole albums meant to be listened in order, build around a single story. And I think it represented each stage in a rather shallow way, focusing mostly on the issues with each. Not to mention that it skipped yellow altogether.

@Leo Gura I see, thank you. Also, do you still find value in doing 20 min / 30 min / 1 hour of meditation daily, on top of long sessions that you do on weekends and retreats? Or do you think that short daily practice is not necessary?

@Leo Gura when you say that you need to meditate for 20-200 hours to start seriously challenging and rewiring your brain or to shift your consciousness, what do you really mean by that? As a person who has never meditated this long, its really hard for me to picture the changes. Do you feel noticably different? What happens to your consciousness when you hit 200 hour mark? Also, will whatever feeling / change in consciousness it is go away after some time, like with psychedelics. Or do you notice some permanent changes? What do they look/feel like?

Oh wow, @Leo Gura you have been really treating us with the release schedule recently

@Leo Gura yeah, I know, you are right.

I know this is not a voting thing, but I really wish Joe would keep his corrupt hands away from Leo's work.

@Leo Gura thanks a lot.

@Leo Gura can you make a new video about meditation or at least a blog poss?

I need some simple advise on how to ask people out at work, at a book club, at your workout group, etc., that is low key and is not going to get you embarassed, kicked out, or make being there uncomfortable

I see. Also, how do you meditate for that long every day? Do you sit motionless or do you walk around, or lay on your back? Whenever I tried to sit is a standard cross legged meditation for more than an hours, my back would give out and I would start shaking and stuff.

lol

If one were to do this, would you eat and cook or do you just drink water?

Ok, thank you for clarifying.

@Leo Gura i see

@Nilsi I don't see dating as shitting.

Things like that would make me really doubt the quality of everything else that a person is saying / teaching, to be honest. Seems like a really gross mistake, almost a delusion, to call Trump stage green.

@Leo Gura do you like SD more or does integral have some useful insights / things that spiral dynamics miss? Ken Wilber should be overall more conscious than Don Beck, right (I think you've mentioned Don Beck identifying himself as stage blue somewhere)? So he should understand higher stages better?

Is integral model somehow different from spiral dynamics?

@aurum @Nilsi thanks

Know what? I am asking why do you have a need for a relationship?

If you have such a high consciousness than why do you need marriage or a partner at all?

what was his point according to you?

@Leo Gura why would you get bored of the same person? What really changes if you get a new girlfriend? Isn't it like the same structure, different content? Would you be bored of having the same cat for more than a few years? It sounds like you are just hooked on that initial feel good hormone spike or whatever.

Those people are killing me. Imagine thinking that government agencies pay taxes. And I bet he thinks of himself as very intelligent person, with valid opinions on things 🤯
