I watched the blog post about science and omniscience. The one with the guy from the big conversation. I took a lot of notes on it and definitely can go further with the contemplation and insight from it. The big point that I see it boil down to is that it was a conversation between reality being an infinite singularity with succeeding eons where time is indistinguishable, and the other side said that reality is a reason for causation in mathematical abstract. That's um, what I really got out of the video. There is definitely a lot more that goes into it. Thanks Leo for sharing this information with us.

" I hope I haven't upset Leo Gura in the past that caused him to quit or anything.". Please come out of your meditation. Your brain needs to think again. Leo has over 40.000 posts here on this forum alone and over 1 Million subscribers. Do you know how many people of them have said nasty things to him?

I know right, even after he committed all those heinous crimes and went to jail for it. People still want to be Trump. Based upon this those people who want to be like Trump aren't people that are healthy to listen to. He didn't really do a whole lot to raise the American consciousness.

It's a good thing that the police, and the FBI are there to stop things like this from happening. I'm really glad that they are looking around to keep everyone safe from harm. Couldn't really do things do day to day if they weren't there to keep us out of harm's way.

Hey what's up guys, I'm in a place in life where I don't have a career. I work at a grocery store for 24-40 hours a week, and that's really everything I have going in my life. I was going to university to get a career in Business Administration, but that was cut short because I didn't want to foot the student loans bill. I was thinking about if I ever got rich I would go back and finish my Bachelor's degree. Like, if I made millions of dollars on crypto I would go back and work at the office, because it really is a pretty lucrative career field. Then last year I had this career plan to become a musician, but I really couldn't handle the way that the life of a musician is, I felt like working at a computer was just easier to me. I know I should be like Leo and face my problems head on, and build a career somewhere, but for now I'm working at a grocery store till something better comes around.

That is honestly on point. I work at a grocery store where I see hundreds of girls every day, and to be perfectly sure none of them ever approach me ever. They will either look at me or keep going, this one girl who works in the corner apartment has never approached me once, even though we've been working together for years. The girls aren't the ones to approach, it is the duty of the man to approach the girl.

In that situation the best thing to do is to take deep breathes to try and calm your nervous system down. After about two hours the weed high goes away, It's a substance after all which can cause your perception of reality to change. The best thing to think about in that situation is that it will not be or isn't going to last forever, and that it's a high. I think that the reason that it probably reached that point is because you might have smoked too much. If you smoke a little bit it probably won't be a big shift in perception, but if you smoke a big dose out of a bong or something then that definitely is going to happen. For people who smoke weed for years they get used to it, then know in their mind what is going to happen. For people when it's their first few times smoking weed, things like that can happen.

Something that I've noticed going through my life really, for the longest time so far is knowing when my mind understands a thing. Also to what degree do I know when I understand that? I've noticed that at times when I would talk that there would be thoughts, and concepts coming out of my mouth that really appeared out of almost nowhere. I know that most of it was from school, they have a way of building it into everyone's minds so that interacting in the world becomes more seamless. In reality, the question becomes about how do we know when we understand something in our conscious awareness? In the back of my mind I can get the sense of when I know something, but the conscious current knowledge of where that takes place seems to be what I'm trying to find. I've realized that there is layers to knowing something we understand, I was wondering if you guys had any thoughts on what it means to know we understand something.

Physical reality is a hallucination created by your wave of consciousness. It's not atoms bouncing around in a box, it's a hallucination created to keep your life going forward. The very thought that you are a human organism that needs food and water to survive is a hallucination in of itself. The truth is that you are god hallucinating your human body, understanding of this fact can create for many different fun times. Just as a Tv morphs its pixels to create different shows, god is doing the same thing with its consciousness to construct our lives.

Honestly I've noticed that, like when I do pickup I have to be serious and real in the moment. I always try to get to know the girl, and make move it forward to a more intimate state. I really feel like having that one to one human connection to someone is really one of the greatest joys of the universe. When I spend time with a woman that I care about, it really makes me feel a lot happier as a person. I don't want to be one of those guys who doesn't take it serious and is goofy about it. I really take it serious and now I know my girlfriend on a more profound level.

@Leo Gura Great work Leo, I am very happy to see that you're doing another video on YouTube. I really appreciate everything you have done to help humanity understand this world. Thank you for all the philosophical insights into the nature of reality, it has been a very amazing journey.

I think it comes down to the individual understanding themselves and who they are. Once you know who you are as a person, then you really don't need an outside entity to validate your reality. Once you know they way you are, and how your whole human body apparatus functions, then it won't really make a big difference what the societal sort of movements are saying about you. I really feel like to me once I understand myself, I'm confident in that knowledge and the outside views of me don't change who I am as a person. It really comes down to understanding whether or not you are a certain way. Once LGBTQ people know they're LGBTQ, that's what they are as people. I'm going to be accepting of that either way, that's not saying I am because I know I'm not. I'm just saying that I'm okay with them in who they are as I'm not really going to bring it up to anyone.

I just wanted to talk about in here a severe depression I have been going through, including alcohol withdrawals, and inability to continue schooling. I started off the year going to the University, and having intense anxiety all the way through, and I was drinking every night. And then it all ended in the end of March, and then I started drinking every night like 48 fl oz of alcohol. And then I noticed during the day and night that some severe withdrawals would kick in. So I quit now going on 4 days of sobriety. Before that time period I was doing 3 days, and one night I had little drink. So really, it was been about a week since I've been doing heavy drinking. I was always worried who liked me and who hated me, and then I stopped doing college, so then I started drinking really heavy every night. Around 3-4 drinks every night. Then all of a sudden during the day I got horrible withdrawals, so I had to take 3 days off work last week to help it. I know I started drinking to curb the depression, the anxiety, and the slight bipolar. Maybe there's some PTSD too from getting withdrawals that changed my whole sense of reality. The withdrawals seem to be wearing off, but there is like some depression, and PTSD from my whole interface of reality changing. I'm working again, talking to people again, but there's this sensing of depression, and like the colors seem to be a bit yellowish. I think another reason why I drank too much alcohol was because I was drinking too much caffeine. I would drink 2 energy drinks a day, to work part time and go to school part time. Then I couldn't sleep at night, so I would just dose myself with alcohol to put myself to sleep. So I was intaking 2 energy drinks a day, and 3-4 alcoholic beverages a day. Then now there is no caffeine or alcohol going into my body. It feels like a big shift for sure. The whole reason why I started doing this I think was to curb this intense feeling of depression.

No there would not, and if there was no work there would be no money.

@Leo Gura I agree with your conservative approach to this man. Know why? because I work a full-time job, and for people to get the same as me for doing nothing but sitting at the computer or console playing Mario Kart wouldn't be fair to the people sacrificing their time out their on the job-site. The way I think about it, the only excuse they could get away with having UBI is if everyone got UBI, and then working wages would be added on top of that piece. Either everyone gets UBI, and then wages go on top of UBI, or no UBI at all. That's my thought about it. What do you think?

@Leo Gura How do I socialize Leo? Do I go to downtown Portland and start talking to random strangers? The thing is when people figured out that I don't smoke weed they started to avoid me. Like when they didn't know that didn't smoke weed they were around me all the time. Then when they found out that I don't smoke weed they all disappeared.

I don't know is like cold approach a good tactic, or would I want to befriend her first, and then build into it after we get to know eachother? Like, me and her can do hobbies together, we can work together on things. That would give people an excuse to be around eachother.

@Leo Gura True story man, "exploit" is a relative term. Just because someone says something like that doesn't make it a true statement. Artists who make art compete against other artists in the same domain. Much like a baseball player competes against other baseball players, or an engineer competes against other engineers. The world of art is very much so a competitive field. The music industry is an example of a highly competitive field of art. People in the music industry sue eachother all the time, this shows that art is very competitive, and that "exploit" is a relative term.

@Someone here I hear what you mean here my dude. To put into context that other people don't exist simply is a falsification of reality. That is fantasy, it is false from the truth. The truth is that other people do exist.

Yeah, we gonna find the dream girl. Lets Go! That's my best friend Leo Gura!

Yeah, marijuana can cause psychosis. It makes you feel like nothing really exists at all, like you're just in this spiral where everything is in a loop. It looks like you may be experiencing mental illness, welcome to the club.

@Leo Gura Speaking of replacements with different selves, please don't make your videos about me bro, please make them about yourself. Like, you don't have to, please don't worry about me bro. You could even forget about me and everything would be totally fine. I'm just a guy who works a job, and spends the nights with his girlfriend, that's who I am. The constructs of consciousness is the true game I would agree to understand here. The analysis of the fundamental nature of consciousness is what we are looking forward to finding out. Thank you for your Analysis Mr. Gura. For real, it's hard to truly understand the difference between the different selves, when you've only been living through one self your whole existence. Then once you live through another self, it really gives you a deep sense of contrast between the different perspectives that everyone is existing through, it really makes everything make sense.

@Leo Gura The best of the best. Not even just the best, the best of the best.

@Danioover9000 It is true that the lost art of Tiktok reduces the attention span of the users who use the platform. The platform is high sensationalism, low mental intensity entertainment in order to maximize attention on the platform. The resultant of this is that there is degradation in the mental health of the users on the platform. The result of this is that the people who use tiktok all day have a hard time with concentration.

@Leo Gura Honestly bro, Downtown Portland is the place I should go to meet girls. There are so many of them up there. lol
