Arthogaan

It is basically balancing love with wisdom. It is a great podcast on the topic

That video is great! You can feel the soft cuteness of being that I very much also get on LSD. 99% of users here would not have balls to post such emotional release here on the forum. And by the way, maybe you still have a little bit of baby-face quality but you can already clearly see that you have some nice bone structure and that in 2-4 years girls will be begging for that chin

You both are saying the same thing

What are the rules? Can you drink and eat? What about the light when going to piss? Do you meditate most of the time? Do you remain consciouss during the sleep?

God created life out of love. But any life requires stealing. Becteria steals minerals. Plants steal water from the ground. Mushrooms steal nutrients from the trees. Animals steal fruits and also kill other animals so that they can steal their meat. Life requires killing. But it is better to have life than not. And God knows that.

THE MIND imagines stuff. How is it possible that MIND can imagine reality is a mystery. Imagination is a miracle. Consciousness is a miracle. And a mystery. And how Leo would say, it is not a bug, it is a feature.

I cant believe I just got rick rolled on actualized.org on a happy birthday thread...

You should read this recent blog post of Leo: https://www.actualized.org/insights/thinking-deeply-about-the-trans-issue

Contrary to most comments I want to say congrats bro. You listened to your heart, you took an uncomfortable decision out of the scheme of society. You are free. You seem like a smart dude so you can always find another job and if it will be bad you will quit again. No need to dramatize when you have money and do not have a family to provide for.

I feel the obligation to remind us of this great piece of art here. All the best Leo.

The same thing that in nightly dreams. And the same thing that daydreaming. Only that God can imagine things so deeply and in a very stable way that it constructs reality.

My perspective is that you are just a figment of imagination and that you do not have your own perspective, you are a dream character to me. Evidence is direct experience. If I throw away all asumptions and all beliefs what you are left with is pure perception/imagination without the notion of Other. Just like in a lucid dream at night. BUT somehow it is also true for you. You are imagining me, and you are the only POV that exists right now. I don't know how brother, it is still something that I have to understand on my trips and meditations. It is a miracle and a mystery. How I try to reconcile it is that NOW from your perspective you are the only POV. But after your death, your consciousness maybe will decide that now it would be great to dream up a next incarnation of You but from Arthogaan's point of view. Which would mean that you are just writing with your future self in a way. You will be writing this words to yourself in some of the next lifes.

Familiarize yourself with the work of Leo some more:

You are imagining the reproducion and evolution.

Yes. It is imagined by Consciousness/God/You. This what Leo teaches.

Thats not true. While you dream at night, there is no your body/brain dreaming it up. It is Consciousness imagining a dream, and then when you wake up Consciousness is still imagining a dream but now a more stable one.

Just like in nightly dreams after one dream ends then you construct new body and reality.

Yeah whatever, we are splitting hairs now.

Yeah sure. It's just something that comes and goes and not something life becomes.

Life becomes much more interesting after awakening. You become adventurous, courageous, inspired, loving, giving. You see through your own bullshit. Boredom is just a beginning stage.

He was an adult. He had his whole life to prepare for death. Everyone dies ultimately alone. You will too. So don't be that harsh to yourself, it is not your responsibility to be a loving person to those dying especially when you have rough time. Just take it as a motivation to become the best human being possible.

For me that is the art that is the closest to what I feel like on deep trips:

XDD

Thats quite cool.
