  1. You maybe right, what would you suggest to do that?
  2. Thanks for the advice, tbh though I do a lot of these things, I got to the gym 4 times a week, diets pretty clean, I do intermittent fasting, I meditate and journal although both could be more consistent. They do help definitely and I'm sure if my routine was better it would help even more so, but it feels like something's missing and I don't know what because everything kinda seems empty or hollow. In a way it might be natural progression to see this but I just don't know where to go from here
  3. The philosophy behind it is probably yellow, because at its simplest form it offers a way to trade without the stage orange infrastructure, banks etc. Problem is, that orange infrastructure is very rooted at the moment and because our society is mainly orange it would be impossible to successfully implement a more advanced concept such as bitcoin. Anything given to us now that's advanced will just be used for orange ends. It's like if you gave a chimp a computer they'd probably use as rudimentary tool to catch ants or something. Obviously this has come to pass which is cryptos have fallen dramatically this year
  4. I think what we need to do is stop looking at people in black and white terms or that they're some all knowing being. Everyone has valuable information and everyone has an ego, so just work out what information is valuable to you and dont buy into any teacher wholesale. Tbh I usually get a feeling whether someone is speaking from presence or not or whether they have an inflated ego. So I think just go with your gut on these things. The goal isn't to find the reincarnation of Christ it's to get the pointers you need to see what you truly are (or aren't). So get out of the idol mindset
  5. I watched a doc which charted child genius' life, they had very high iqs 150+ at like 10 but very few of them made any kind of success of their lives, so i really dont think its that much of a factor, it is a factor but so are all the other intelligences, so is attractiveness, so is athleticism, theres so many, to boil it down to just iq i think is short sighted
  6. Hey man, i would say sorry to hear about your troubles but in a way i think its potentially a positive thing. So i would say im going through something similar but from a different angle. So i believed in my younger days that 'something' would give me that peace or salvation, i really thought being rich/having a biz, having girls, having respect etc etc, I experienced most of these and probably more to boot. Materially i have nothing to complain about BUT what this made me realise is that literally nothing will give me 'salvation', so i stumbled on spirituality and that offered hope but then again i realised that is similar to money and all the other stuff in that its something to be attained. One of the first things i read on buddishm was that suffering comes from desire, even the desire to be desire-less is itself a desire, so in other words there is no 'hope' . I think for you, youve basically read the last few chapters and skipped most of the book (im 33 btw) so what this means is that youve realised the meaningless of a lot of things but you still think you can 'achieve' peace of mind, so what it seems is that youre not accepting yourself as you are but what you should be ie no issues with your family, have a life purpose etc. So its not bad where you are but you have to not let the ideas of where you could be stop you from actions. Theres loads of stuff you mentioned that you could just do, move out, get a job (shit or not) and just have these experiences. For the job thing you know youre not going to get sucked into it so just do it, i worked at asda (walmart) for years and eventually something i was working on worked out and i started making money, i hated it but it was a necessary step. So my advice would be just take some action and dont worry about where it will lead too much, just do what feels right in the moment, you havent got anything to lose if what youre doing now isnt working for you anyway
  7. I get you but I just get a more advanced vibe from them, I might be wrong though. Yeah Julien definitely evolved, I just think it's more yellow as I think the content has really evolved and also if it was full on green there would be more of a reaction from an orange audience. But I feel both Tyler and Julien have to dumb it down or talk about more orange topics because of the audience but even within that I think they do it from a more evolved place. I personally can't listen to any other pick up artists anymore apart from them and only when they don't go into pick up too much
  8. I'd say I have OCD but my advice is that if it's not taken over your life completely and you generally have healthy behaviours, ie meditate, work out, eat right etc then just keep doing what you're doing. Completing a retreat is hard for anyone, mentally healthy or not so I wouldn't read too much into it. Feel free to ask me any questions though, I've had it for years so might as well put the knowledge I've got from it to use
  9. I'd actually put Julien and Tyler at yellow. Some of there content is way more advanced than just pick up. However their market is definitely orange so I think they can easily slip into orange as that's where the money is
  10. If we accept that basically everyone is living an illusion, most times actively living an illusion or seeking new illusions, then the world from an objective point of view is a complete mess. Now I know an enlightened view is that everything is as it should be and I agree with that, as I'm aware this is a necessary stage in human development. But honestly what a strange time to be alive, everyone (including myself) is literally deluded and crazy lol. Even those making laws, those in control of masses of people. We live thinking that there's salvation for us if only we can find the right relationship or job, even though there's hard evidence this doesn't work. They call it hope or human spirit, delusion is celebrated. We live in a world where truth is frowned upon, where convenient ideas are raised up to keep everyone placated, those who know some of the workings exploit others that don't. I don't know sometimes I just see the insanity of it all and when you try to tell people (I gave this up long ago) you yourself look kind of crazy within the context, or at best someone might say 'hmm interesting thought'. What gives me hope (yes irony) though is communities like this, where even if we are still deluded to some extent, we are actively attempting to look over the fence and see what is really there. The fact that Leo has so many subscribers and that if I see someone like Mooji I'm joined by many others.
  11. It's definitely not OCD cos no part of OCD is fun
  12. Fully appreciate what you're saying, I've had it for as long as I can remember so I know first hand how bad it is. But what I've learnt is that it doesn't help when you identify yourself as OCD. So let me elaborate on how I think it helps with awakening, everyone has the deeper no self and everyone has an ego, it's possible that you could like your ego and thus never really try and look beyond it, like if you're having a nice dream there's no reason for you to want to wake up. Now if I have OCD what that means is I think I'm my thoughts, so for example if I believe I'm going to hurt someone I really think that's the case in my mind. But in reality that's not true but I can't see that because I'm completely identified with these thoughts. Then I might realise these thoughts aren't me, but maybe compulsions still happen which keeps it alive and I'm getting frustrated because I can see it's not me but there's seemingly nothing I can do to stop the thoughts. Then I give up and do nothing and really realise these thoughts are just happenings they're not me. Then it's not a massive step to realise all thoughts are just happenings and not me. So OCD is like being in a nightmare and if you're in it all you want to do is wake up
  13. Also have OCD, and I agree with @Elysian in that ultimately the solution is to completely accept thoughts and not react to them, as terrible as they might be. The hard thing is that when we have it we feel like we need to 'do' something to get rid of it. It's weird hearing the stages laid out in that way because I notice within myself I have periods of complete non-reaction to the thoughts which I guess you could call samadhi, but they are temporary. So I guess to attain it permanently you almost have to trust that inaction is the solution more than action is and obviously a good practice for that is meditation. Another thing that helped me is just the idea are thoughts aren't actually that important they just happen, when they feel important it's almost like you attach to them and become them, so it's really seeing this illusion. As hard as it is I think OCD offers a real imperative to become enlightened, because the day to day is so unbearable we are highly incentivised to not react to our thoughts. So although it is a torture I truly believe it can be a (hard) path to awakening. Also practical things like exercise, diet etc can help but aren't instant cures obviously
  14. I think a big issue is that there's not many others on the same level of consciousness as a turquoise person, so there is always going to be a power dynamic between the turquoise person and others. So if someone turquoise finds another attractive esp if they're a guru, most likely they would be a follower or look up to that person so it must be difficult to separate that. It's kind of like someone working in an office and they get with the boss. Did they really like the boss or just the power? Obviously power dynamics happen all over society, but with the guru there seems to be something more to it because followers tend to look at them as a god. Also they don't mention sex normally so when someone hears it they might get taken a back as they thought they were above that. Only Osho really mentioned sex that I know of
  15. Technically capitalism should work fairly, markets decide what's valuable. So for example a footballer brings value in that so many people are interested in it and there's only so many people that can play at the highest level which is why they're paid so much as they generate so much. The reason capitalism comes across as unfair is that it can very easily be manipulated, for example those behind it can make football seem more valuable than it is and convince people that they should be interested in it. Also it doesn't take into account the value of things that don't necessary generate money but are essential for society like police, fire, even cleaning. So it has many flaws and holes and can easily be corrupted but by itself it's not necessarily unfair. For example if everyone was a higher consciousness ie green, yellow or above, capitalism would be a good way to organise society. But because everyone is so worried about survival and getting one over on each other it doesn't really work. It's like religion, at its core it makes sense but its corruption lies in the practitioners
  16. This, a serious conversation about humour is hilarious to me
  17. If you can understand it then its worth reading but dont be disheartened if it doesnt resonate with you. Id probably recommend some eckhart tolle or Alan Watts books to start with. Theres a lot of Oshos teachings on youtube as well which maybe a bit easier to digest
  18. No I don't think heartbreak is an ego backlash in that it's a reaction to loss. There's nothing wrong with feeling your emotions and loss is a very real one. Where the ego can come in is the projection of what that loss is, for example if you think that person is going to complete you and you were always destined to be together then the ego will react to that obviously more than the reality of the situation. So its important to realise what stories you're framing romantic love around, it's very susceptible to such stories because of the constant narratives we've heard about what love is or should be. So essentially your ego backlash is always a reaction to what it thinks should be vs what actually is
  19. Hey guys, I shot a video this morning to do with how a human goes from pre-having, having then to being, I feel like it can help make things a bit clearer in terms of that transition from having to being (i dont really like to use the E word). So anyway have a look hopefully it helps someone and i know you might be thinking 'ah its a long vid and this aint Leo' but give it a chance maybe theres some info in there that would be worth you time. Anyway Love and Being
  20. Ive had this in the past and it still gets me on and off, sometimes i fully understand that i have to let it be and it subsides but sometimes it freaks me out. But i think thats what Charlotte is saying that theres normal anxiety that everyone gets and its about accepting that as well, so anxiety in itself cant be cured as its a human reaction but it can be lessened and reacted to differently to get to 'normal' levels
  21. Is the UK in the schedule at some point?
  22. I'll check him out, I try and get my mind fucked as much possible
  23. I like some of rsd and I resonate more with Tyler and Julien, mainly because I like the inner game stuff. Regardless of what you do I think it's most important to develop inwardly and game can be a great way to do that.
  24. 12 monkeys messed with me for while, I went on a whole time travel rabbit hole. Total recall the Arnold one messes with you. Source code is one of my favourites as well. I havent seen a good one for a while though
  25. I get what you mean in that it can seem hypocritical or unkind to charge for spiritual teachings especially with regard to the above quote. But I think this comes down to us having an emotional attachment to money, meaning that for us giving money or spending especially on something like this brings up feelings of 'i worked for this why I'm going to give to this person'. The fact is what she's doing has value, which is to say people are willing to pay for it. If she put down all her costs for equipment, time etc people would be willing to cover them for her if they get value from her work. So how would it be possible for her to give this value for people and survive without being reimbursed for it? If she wasn't able to be reimbursed for it, she wouldn't be able to consistently give content, of which most is free actually. As @aurum said it's a scarcity mindset thinking that someone shouldn't get paid for what they do, this mindset thinks that they're trying to hustle them because they themselves can't imagine doing work without hustling people or focusing on the money. So it becomes a projection of how their mindset and they assume that others operate on that level as well
