It is important to keep in mind how much time Leo took to study subjects and the big picture. He is right that he does understand many things far deeper than most people because he has the time to read hundreds of books and videos and papers and contemplate for tenthousands of hours. Almost nobody has that willingness nor the time to do the same. I've read maybe 30 high quality deep books and studied a lot of things he studied and spent 1000s of hours on research and contemplation on my own and understand sociology, politics, science, developemental psychology, how institutions develope and a lot more than maybe 85 percent of the people of my country and people get pissed if you tell or show them how little they know while they like to talk ignorantly. And that's no brag but an honest assessment. Every time I get an deep insight through composition and interweawing of different perspectives and deep study and I happen to stumble upon an old post or video I realize that he already had this insight years ago. Is he a bigot for claiming that no one has a monopoly on definitions and perspectives like that post about scientists recently? I think yes. However, some perspectives or definitions are far better in describing a thing more accurately because of far better knowlegde on a subject like cults for example. People through it around like candy. I happen to know through new age circles about a guy who is creating a cult right now and people accusing leo have no idea about how that works in reality or online because they don't want nor have 100 hours of time to study the subject and don't understand the gravity of their accusations and that with their aggressive ignorance they behave like hyenas and leo cannot give them food for their delusional views by doing more than admitting that he was ungrounded and imply mistakes because they would act like hyenas and like to portay him moreso like a delusional cult leader and harm this whole place.

@Leo Gura I'm interested about the concept of late stage capitalism. Do you have a book on your book list exoloring that concept or do you know another good source?

Could it be that this AGI talk was just distraction for the real deal?

@Leo GuraThe buddha used the term god but hence buddhism seperated from its original hindu culture and got its own metaphisics they deny it. They chant about bramachariya which means the way to brahman but in the normal translations you get in the mantra books it means there the spiritual path or highest goal which is wrong.

@Leo GuraNice that you've found another hopefully sustainable source of income. Very much appreciate it and of course all the work and advice you have given for free over the years. It allowed me to understand things almost nobody understands about how the world works. I'm going to make a seperate thread about that because there is gold in seeing how these teaching apply in real life. Thx😊🙏🙏🙏 Well and we are still waiting for the actualized only fans account where you reveal other hidden aspects of reality. 😋

It was obvious he would fuck up badly for everybody but his own caste

@Monster Energyhalf the population is too stupid to make sense of the world even with school. There are aspects like grades, curriculum and pressure which are harmful for children but cannot be avoided on our current level of developement (somebody has to do the dirty work). I have seen and talked to hundreds of alternative people with their alternative ideas which are destroying society more than our school system.

@Leo GuraNice stage green hippies mostly even can't get results because every now and then one needs a pause to care for his feelings and have weak structure and no efficient top down hierachy to create important things. Also they don't treat everyone equal even though they talk that way. They cannot treat everybody the same because it would create evil. You cannot treat a nazi like a stage green yogi. But that also creates its own evil. With this downside how should they implement communism in a goverment?! It's impossible.

I have a friend who has adhd and trains his mind 1-2 hours a day to keep focus on his goals. He uses this energy and puts it into his business and it involves a lot of connecting with other people, marketing, planning and practical things. His mental training involves training to focus his attention via meditation and programming his mind via affirmations and visualisation. He avoids social media and youtube. He has found his niche which fits his diagnosis and character best and it seems to weaken the the main symptoms of his condition overall. this is specific to his case. This doesn't mean you shouldn't try medication but maybe there are some avenues left unexplored so you can use aspects of your disorder to work for you as well.

In higher states of consciousness you can clearly see that there is no you and nothing and at the same time you see form (thoughts, sight, taste etc occuring in nothing and know it. There is no loop by being all of it. @Leo Gura would you explain the jist of it this way as well or am I missing something?

@Leo GuraYour latest post about the grift of Clavicular reminds me of a new age friend with whom I'm working with. He is in the upper 10 percent of looks, a very skilled leader and speaker, also my team leader, leads a new age project with 1.4k followers, 2/3 of them are women, is extremely extroverted, has adhs and we meet on events on weekends maybe 20-30 girls (men not counted) personally. He thinks his success in business and with women comes only from following LoA and the hermetic principles and crystall shrined. He also promotes them this way. Other people around are so foolish and believe that and wonder why they still such with women and are not capable of understanding the truth of it cause of their new age believes. I see that he has parts in him which can bring him like other successfull people the success he wants but also he is so deluded in this area and I think that this actually helps him that everything might work out. I find it so interesting how the mind works and how it plays out in real life. If you are interested I can elaborate certain points

@Leo GuraI'm practicing tibetan buddhism, especially tantra meditations. I recently found out that the most advanced techniques use the same energy channels as in kriya yoga. One particuliar is has a lot in common with Lahiri's spinal breathing from the energy channels over the breath to the visualization. I find that very interesting.

Hey guys, I need your help. I've grown up without an adequate father role model and I'm looking to change that and integrate this part of my psyche. I'm looking for good sources of healthy masculinity to integrate. This can be youtube channels and videos which treat the subject connecting to your masculine side, healthy role models and books and articles. Exersizes and practices are also welcome but please keep the focus on the subject and don't let this thread be side tracked by distracting debates. I think it would be very helpful to others as well who have similiar challenges. Thx in advance

I will check it out. Thank you!

I'm have been doing some of those. I've been disciplining myself and changing thinking patterns and doing spiritual work. I've set loose goals but after reflection I think the were too loose. I will define them narrower and be more specific. Hehe, I came up with a similiar list when I contemplated the subject. I think I will focus on each principle for a certain amount of time like a month in turn so that I'm not all over and can work through other points as well. Thank you for the inspiration. I have Arnold Schwarzenegger's book "be useful" on my shelf. He talks a lot about how he handled challenges he encountered in his live. I read about a third of it. I will put it on my list. I'm also very active in dating. It's a steep learning curve and I've inproved a lot since last year.

@Leo Guralas sry, can't delete you here @darkspring001I would be very careful. I know of a case of a schizophrenic person who started believing he wife was cheating on him and couldn't dissuaded by any means and eventual he died in a shoot out with the police because he went berserk.

Here is a clip with Maersheimer's analysis on Iran from the full video which was released 3 days ago. This gives you a good overview about what the US and Israel are trying to do. Edit: I've found this interview from Jeffrey Sachs. I haven't been through it now but it seems to give a good perspective on how we got here from last years events and what's about to happen.

Last thursday during a talk at the freemeasons I met a girl I find cute. During the conversation a friend who drove me home stepped in and asked if we want to exchange numbers and we agreed. After this I didn't feel in the right mind to answer and then I was 3 days very busy and forgot about it. Today I want to write her a message. What do you think about this one? "Hey, I'm .... the circus padagogue from last time at the freemeasons. I find you quite interesting. Do you want to grab a coffee these days?" This circus padagogue thing was very funny at the event because when we introduced ourselves we had two of us in this small round and it became a running gag during the evening. Is this short text enough or short I first start a conversation? If so how can I do so without friendzoning me?

Thx, got a date in some time

I haven't got time to check them out but after you took the effort for this long reply I want at least make a short reply and tell you that you changed my mind. Your reasoning seems sound to me.

I'd be looking for better sources than these channels. Why this general was purged and what happened exactly is unknown and those channels spread speculation and tell you it's facts. I'd check at least what the mainstream media have to offer to cross reference the news. No offense, but I've already seen this unreliable news sourcing when you posted years ago about ukraine.

I know psychedelics do not raise your base state but the awakenings and insights from it are often superior to normal retreats. That everything is love is a rather low hanging fruits on psychedelics. Ralston has changed his mind on the differentiation between nothingsness and form and it's absoluteness after his recent awakening last year or the year before, so he can be wrong.

@Leo GuraDo you mean extracted?

@Leo GuraWhen I cannot delete what was written above. Anyways, I've wanted to share some Feynman videos for weeks so I'm glad the subject came up. Here you go: The second one will be uplpaded if I find it between the trash from the algorithm. What I find astounding is how his mind works and where deep thinking coupled with imagination power can lead to.

@Leo GuraWhen I get married for conformist reasons I try fulfill an ideal society planted in my mind and I don't question if marriage is real necessary or if I'm just trying to keep up an old tradition. I don't question what the concept of being married actualy is nor what it means deeply. One way is when I don't marry out of conformity I've made clear what marriage actualy means and decide afterwards. Another way is I would really do it out of love and not to do it for another end. Both ways are not mutual exclusive. I see that I'm not truthful to my own feelings when I would marry out of conformity.
