@Samsonov Yes, my conclusion was: For me, an amazing life is ruled at the center by an ambition that fuels your vision, in your right hand perseverance and in your left hand patience.

No I don't, I just have a gut feeling that something is off, subtly out of balance and it could go in crescendo. He can take care of himself but we also have the responsability to be a sort of mirror to him. Hope he's doing fine; and I'm just projecting and misunderstanding.

It's about expanding your sense of concern and care. Recycling is quite easy actually, you can learn in a few hours all that there is to it. Regarding a change in diet, well that requires a lot of work. Then why to do it? Well in peak green one really cares for the ecosystem, nature and moral high grounds. When you connect the dots, you realize that as an individual the activity that most fucks up the planet is eating meat (this is a fact) and when you discover how animals are treated and slaughtered then your morality doesn't allow it either. Some interesting facts that any stage green individual has seriously contemplated: Viewer discretion advised

Meh, the just coexist but nothing really worthy in my experience LSD and edibles or LSD and MDMA, those are another level

Yep, they give another whole dimension to the experience The forest, animals and plants def feel it

I wasn't suggesting that, it's clear you don't wanna make it that way (nor do I), I was just pointing out that Actualized.org is losing the edge, you are losing your edge. Not trying to impose by societal norms or my own ones what that edge looks like, I just see it is not there, the magic is lost. As you're able to sustain yourself and maybe have other projects going on like the videogame or whatever, you are abandoning this place slowly. From time to time you drop a bit of gold here and there and that's all. Looking at the trajectory Actualized.org is taking these last years, that's the feeling it gives from the outside. Are we the side chick? I want you to be yourself. I respect your sovereignty deeply, don't just fucking bounce my messages with your defence mechanisms, let what I0m saying penetrate you deeper and arrive at your soul. Something profound is being communicated, take it seriously. There's something fucking going on Leo, maybe you can fool others but not me. Where the fuck are you? What is going on?

It has been many times discussed in the Forum why a model talking about human developmental stages conflates with the mystical dimensions. Could it be an error? If not, why is this the case? So I suddendly got it. In the Construct Aware or Ego Aware, there is a seeing through illusions and the cocreative act of sense making of reality and yourself while still being entangled in it. Therefore it follows that once the whole human mind is deconstructed or its mechanisms are translucid to consciousness, there must be a mystical experience. So actually this is a brilliant insight and points to the corvengence of human development and spirituality as a compulsary occurence at some point. If you're able to see through the construction of your persona and human self, like the Ego Aware stage suggests, then what are you left with when that fully happens? So there you have it. I wanted to share the insight, as @Carl-Richard brilliantly pointed this aparent hole in the model, so after contemplating it for months I'm happy to share the insight. More on this in the original thread:

Hi @Asia P, happy to see you again. Your question seems a bit weird to me. Effects are very different, particularly in time: from 12h in LSD to roughly an hour in ketamine, it's very substantial. LSD feels stimulating, electric, loopy, symetric, spatious, energetic, vibrant and colourful. Ketamine feels relaxing, distorting, sedative, buddhist, clean, equanimous and at high doses it can give you a breakthrough (k-hole).

Green is very deep. Quick test to know if you have gone through green: Do you Recycle? Are you vegetarian/vegan or have you been?

In the same way I did in the story I told you The stage Green in me took care of the beautiful little insect The stage Red in me wanted to serve itself a delicious meal The balance is in the tension between the individual and the collective. Ken Wilber and Friederich Schleiermacher talk a lot about this topic, in case you wanna get into more detail. The question you ask has more to do about this tension than with developmental stages (it is true that each stage swings predominantly from individual to collective and viceversa: red individual, blue collective, orange individual, green collective...) I have a practical example for you to contemplate: Let's say you are in a romantic relationship, how do you keep being yourself (autonomy) while also connecting with your beloved (communion)? In this question lies the answer to your doubt. Leo talks about such interplay in his video: Division vs Unity - The Engine That Runs Reality Why are frameworks above feelings? Why are feelings above frameworks? I use frameworks but I'm not caged by them. I let all feelings to be felt while striving to mantain unbiased discernment. Models are nothing but useful maps, they are pragmatic and correlate with my experience, hence I use them. Overall, I respect my Conscious Sovereignity and from that steam all my decisions.

@Aaron p who is the artist? I would like to watch more of his/her art. Thanks

Yes, I think they are the most concise pieces of work you do. You do casual chatting with nuggets of gold and then marathon long videos, so I think Actualized quotes have an interesting niche to be explored. I wanted to express a feeling I've been having lately Leo. In a way Actualized.org is losing its edge. Consider this an intervention: I do feel like you're getting stagnated and honestly this project you're running has so much potential that is still untapped. I know you must be struggling personally and that many things happen behind closed doors, but you don't communicate that to us, like the one week webpage breakdown and the one year video gap without explanations. There are so many avenues to take Actualized.org moving forward, much more than videos, if we get lucky to even have them. What about the course? What about the book? What about the interviews? What about the tour? What is the vision? Please tell us... Moreover, I feel like the entity of Actualized.org is losing its Spirit. More than 2 years ago since the last Awakening communication. How on earth is that possible? Moreover, the ridiculous quality standards you set for yourself and the videos are SEVERELY limiting All that could be. Go to your OneNote right now and tell me how many fucking amazing videos you could shoot tomorrow? Contemplate that. When was the last time you talked with us casually in a videoblog like we were friends having a conversation in the couch. Or making a youtube live or having us all in a conversation or something creative, unique, bold? In how many ways the Forum could become better both in content and context (UI, functionalities, etc.). I don't even recognise you in that decade old picture, bro wake up. Don't be a‎ fa*****. Approach! Maybe it's even time for you to move on, maybe all this is limiting You. How many good years do you have left? Honestly I don't even know, do you? Well, I felt it was important to share this feedback with you, Leo Gura. Take care. Lots of Love Davino Meow!

Life is a contradiction The other day I spent half an hour grabbing a little insect and leaving it outside of my house, I don't want him to be inside because they reproduce a lot but neither to murder it needlessly. However, then I eat a good meat for lunch. It's understanding the nature of each thing, being comfortable with chaos and loving everything for what it is. If you want me to be more specific please reformulate your question regarding the clash of red and green. It's a fault of mine to be very high level so if you feel like your doubt wasn't addressed, express it so and interrogate me further.

@Carl-Richard I was writing that!🤣

An interesting phenomon that I've noticed is that the more I evolve as a human the more profound I integrate lower stages. Let me see how I explain this because it's really tricky. For example, while being in Tier 2 you may have breakthroughs in orange and green, even blue, which are so deep that your life is profoundly transformed. Right now I'm going through a whole recontextualization of Yellow that is honestly changing me inside out, like all levels get worked through iterations the more you advance. Let's say you are in Yellow for some years and then you're maturing yourself, you will find out that all Tier 1 gets worked through again. So to move beyond, you further integrate and embody past levels. A professor explained me that many university graduates went back to the first lessons to consolidate the nuances of core concepts and build a better foundation. They were surprised to discover how much they learnt which was initially overlooked; as the "structure" was good enough to keep building up. But at some point if you want to keep constructing, then you gotta reiterate all the previous levels and "fill in the holes" making a more compact and holistic foundation that supports your skyscraper developmental stage.

Thought this might be of interest in your course but don't really know. I just leave it here in case it is

@M A J I You were eclipsed by food my friend

@RightHand FUCK YEAAAAAH!!!!!

It's interesting that when I use a lot of willpower it does feel like training a muscle and next day I have more of it normally. Also because it ties in with my emotions.

May this be a space to share resources and insights on discipline. This is my 2025 goal, to build self-discipline. Some interesting videos to start contemplating:

@Salvijus Yes, I do that a lot. I have pictures of people that inspire me all over my home.

@Identity Yes, certainly helpful. I also intuited that but kind of finding my way towards that implementation Teal Swan really has some emotional intelligence

Then you're feeling into the actuality of thoughts and concepts Which is a different level of perception altogether what people usually do with their thoughts is projection and mistaking the map for the territory. Well yes the map does exist in the same way the territory does exist, so both are Existing, but map as a model has certain limitations and it can be misrepresentative of actuality; while actuality is always self-evident and self-explanatory. In the same way a baby interacts with a chair before it has the concept of a chair, she interacts with the actuality of it. As it grows up, higher development happens which means the ability to distinguish and categorize. However, this inmense gift has the trap of living in a world of shadows and losing contact with the actuality of experience, which is KING.

This exercise may help you:

Real question: why do I experience this body? Real answer: Because you want, when you dream body is different, if you kill yourself in the dream no more body If you define body as a figment of reality if you realise your body is the whole Universe then that's Awakening
