axiom

You seem to be annoyed. I apologise if anything I’ve said here is frustrating or triggering. It is still true though. Death is truth. Death is “God”.

@Thought Art How did the observer appear?

All the better. The self must be given nothing.

Less, not more. Unless you want to bind spirituality with politics. Remember, all differences are imaginary. They are worth exploring only to the extent you wish to dive deeper into the dream. Discard the relative.

Because it’s true. God is only an idea. A beautiful idea, but just an idea.

I didn’t get the impression that @RMQualtrough is basing any of this on anything Leo has said.

Yes, sounds about right. There is an appearance (not an experience) of two thumbs tapping a screen. That could be called God. It could also be called this or that.

It doesn’t have to, and that’s OK

When it comes to enlightenment, there is no “how”. If the word “how” - along with the accompanying sentiment - was completely eliminated from a seeker’s vocabulary, it might solve a lot of apparent problems ;-) Whenever there is a question of “how?” the truest answer is silence… or perhaps a prod with a sharp stick! If someone offers you more than this, they are not helping you. Rather, they are humouring you by tending to the dream, watering it, keeping it alive. Any sort of prescriptive answer only ever perpetuates the dream. Truly there are no answers. Answers only exist in the dream. Receive enough answers and you may never escape.

You don’t go about it. It happens on its own.

There are no higher stages in meditation. In the same way, there are no higher stages in TV-watching. The best practice is making coffee, going to the shop, watching tv, meditating, socialising, taking psychedelics, whatever it may be.

What most of you are not getting here is that Leo has awakened to Troll Consciousness

It is totally irrelevant what Leo says or thinks. Leo is for entertainment purposes only. Find out for yourself!

You're definitely not insane. Don't let anyone tell you otherwise.

What's wrong with eating shit? Notice your bias.

Of course not.

@Leo Gura How about getting an outfit of the kangaroo-mouse made? And then dressing up in it to record any future videos?

You actually do resemble Scrat from Ice Age. Maybe he is your spirit animal Or maybe you caught sight of yourself / your reflection from a weird angle mid-trip (including your movements, writhing about etc) and, seeing yourself from this altered state, you realised for the first time your striking resemblance to a mouse / kangaroo.

When I look at my family tree two things are obvious: 1. For centuries my Ashkenazi Jewish ancestors were forced to move from place to place, always trying to find somewhere that they would be tolerated, or at least not directly persecuted. Quite a shocking number of them died in concentration camps circa 1941 / 1942. 2. A large proportion of my ancestors and living relatives are successful academics (a few are quite famous) or self-made millionaires. I myself am in the latter category. The reason for this pronounced asymmetric success in the Jewish community is a very, very strong genetic tendency to overcompensate for threats to survival. Basically an almost constant pernicious anxiety that around the next corner everything will turn to ashes.

The mouse is a pretty well-known DMT entity / archetype. I've seen it before. It's very twisty and turny, more of a bare skin sort of mouse than one with fur. It can also sometimes have LED lights embedded in its skin. In his videos, Leo often uses the word “kangaroo” as an example of something completely random. Not that surprising that he is now manifesting kangaroo chimeras

In the future, AI will work so you don't have to. This will provide some monetary slack for retirees and/or the disabled etc. As people properly begin to understand decentralisation, government will get smaller, and paychecks will go further. Within a decade after this crash, the dollar will die in its current form, and we will overwhelmingly return to sound money. Population will reduce significantly - whether through war, famine or disease.

Yes. The red even looks pretty excited to be there. Sometimes - quite often, in fact - people will defend the use of the pronoun 'I' to describe a state of 'God consciousness' or enlightenment, unironically clarifying that this 'Self" (note the bolded 'S') is really nothing to do with the illusory, egoic human "small self". But the semantics seem to go largely unexamined. Why use 'I' at all if it has so much baggage? Why not use 'pizza', 'iPhone', 'toaster', or 'fried chicken' ? Admittedly these words have some baggage of their own, but at least they can't so readily be confused with a personal character or ego. In fact I'd argue that to describe enlightenment as 'fried chicken' would be somewhat more accurate. The reason people use 'I' in the context of enlightenment is because they have simply transposed the small self to a new heirarchical position. It is still a staking claim to the appearance. It is still ego, and it is still duality. Enlightenment is not personal. If there is still an 'I' there, even an 'I' which isn't really-but-still-sorta-is an 'I', then there's still more dissolution to go. That ain't it. None of this matters of course. But for the sake of entertainment and contemplation, there it is.

Because you're using a cum-powered torch at 2am?

Have you ever considered deleting the forum? Could be the quickest way to purge those unawake parts of yourself.
