Something Funny

@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 🤯

I think it would for me. At this point, it's not just about sex anymore, though

@Leo Gura I think he is saying that he can't get mardied because of it, not that the marriage will solve the problem. Personally, I do think that I would not need porn at all if I had a girlfriend.

@Thought Art i was just offering yku an option where you don't have to believe in any airy fairy stuff at all and can still teach qi-gong, since you've said that you are starting to have issues with it. Just focusing on movement, awareness, breathing, emotional mastery, positive affirmations, consciousness, etc. But if you really believe in qi and stuff then sure, you can teach that. What's the problem then?

@Thought Art and when in your videos or some other people's videos there are exercises like holding the chi ball in your palms or some exercise called something like "flowing dragon", etc., I think they are just kind of fun and cool. Even if they are not real.

@Thought Art as someone who actually watched your videos - I don't believe in all the esoteric aspects of qi-gong, including tge special energy in our bodies, but I really like your follow along exercises. I think they are great for making you feel better physically and also for emotional regulation. I understand that when you say that qi-gong session is for emotional wellness, you probably mean that the qi energy is supposed to do something with your emotions and such. But I just treat it as setting intentions for the practice, and it being kind of calm, and meditative, and also simply moving helps you feel better. So I think that maybe you don't have to be so attached to all the magical aspects of qi-gong and still help a lot of people by teaching it. Just treat it more like: meditation, movement, breathwork, focusing ypeople's attention on something like self-love, teaching awareness, etc. Because qi-gong is all those things. And it doesn't need to have any mythical energy or some ancient medicine theory to do that.

Treating women like shit and voting for a rapist is fine though.

Since when? If I don't want to work with nazis or if I don't want to work with people who will think that their female colleagues should have stayed in the kitchen or that it's okay to sexually assault them, then I am a piece of shit? If I am running a conscious business focused on helping the environment, I am not going to hire climate change deniers.

Sorry, but this is such a stupid take. Who wants Owen to be everything? Who says that? It's his choice to talk about everything because he doesn't know how to keep his mouth shut on topics he has no clue about. And people just don't want to follow and financially support a corrupt idiot. And why should they? Why should they give their money and time to someone like Owen when there are millions of other influencers nowadays and they can easily find someone whose values they align with. If I know that a restsurant owner is a dick who treats his employees like garbage - I am not going to go to that restaurant. Not because I expects this restaurant owner to "be everything" and teach me about how to run a conscious business. I just don't want to support him because I don't like him and don't want to enable his corruption. It's that simple.
