  1. Yes, he said that, and I had an awekening, but even if perception is an illusion (there is no self and no other to perceive), even in that 'state' of Oneness, the chair in front of you is there, or the pain you have in your hand. Thats my confusion. Seems like there is no way to be pure Consciousness (Being) while in the body...
  2. you enjoy masturbating, right? you enjoy having sex in a dream, right? Enjoy having sex with yourself
  3. you can include thoughts. but was referring more to the sensory perceptions.
  4. Still, if you have a stomach ache or you are listening to music, and you have and awakening, you still hear the music and you still feel the stomach pain. My question was more in reference when people say things like: When you die you become pure Consciousness. So, you can realize that while in human form, but when you die you wont have that stomach ache or that music in the background.
  5. How? Still you can awaken, realize God, and you keep seeing things and objects although you realize their true nature. But the chair is still there.
  6. Seems is a stage green problem. Is necessary to integrate it but not at the expense of the exclusion of other masculine stages of development.
  7. MOST will be fucked moving to a cave, even the highly developed ones. Lets take Leo, he still loves the forum. He is no cave. He is virtually socializing. Is tough to let that go. Osho, Sadguru, Spira etc... the same. There is this human urge to have some socialization. I love isolation, but at the same time some good socialization is great from time to time. There can be a combination of both, a synergy; we just need to recontextualize what socialization can and cannot give to us. My guess is most monks are in monasteries, with MORE people; not alone in caves.
  8. The problem with this people is that the overfocus in ONE aspect of life, but they forget the rest. Like the multi-millionaire that gets destroyed by his wife, because he never took the time to learn about women or inter sexual dynamics. Or top tier athletes with shitty spirituality. Or the spiritual guru who just eats sattvic foods and gets sick. Its the norm, not the exception.
  9. I feel similar to this. In a way yes, is like talking to children. Is like living in a world full of 40 year old teenagers. Puer aeternus, like Jung said. And forget about awakening or profound spirituality. Most people just dont care. Is just how it is. Just studying and deeply understanding dynamics (moving into stage yellow), epistemology, understanding bias, survival vs truth, social matrix, going meta, paradigms... man, when you hear people talk about politics or day to day life... I really feel astonished... the level of inner development is so low... The key here is that this level of development is the standard. So people dont feel the urge to upgrade. People stop evolving around 25. Then coast thru life. Work, consume & repeat. And is not about judging. 5 years ago I was more in the go go-stage orange, mix with some hippie phases, so I feel a bit ashamed of my prior self. My level of thinking was pretty low also. Now in stead of getting angry, I just try to have fun with the situation. Paraphrasing the beginning of the Gran Gatsby: Not everybody had the same opportunities that I had, so, they are where they can. Its just a cosmic joke. Lets enjoy it
  10. I bought Tai Lopez 67 Steps back in 2015 for 7$. That program was the real deal. Also I got into reading because of him and his booklist. Is a great way to start your self help journey in stage Orange. You just need to evolve from it.
  11. Wow really surprised about this! Interested in Europe event.
  12. Nah most high IQ scientific people probably think that (Richard Dawkins, Neils Degrasse Tyson etc...)
  13. It seems that a lot of succesful people (Shetty, Sadia Khan...) have a lot of skeletons in their closet. Still, Shetty has a lot of GREAT content in his podcast. Is useful to sometimes separate the character from the content itself, and learn what we find valuable.
  14. The thing with Elon is that he probably believes that he can grasp Truth with his mind, with his thoughts, as if its some logic problem to solve.
  15. The question is this: Do you know ANY conscious family? Yesterday I was chatting with my sister in our garden about this. The sun was shining and the breeze was whispering softly and the conversation went deep. So the question came: "Do you really know, not just a conscious family, but a funcional one?" Crickets.. The conclusion was obvious. No. But why....? I told her that now that my gf and I have a baby, we are watching some podcasts and reading some books about parenthood. She loved the idea but when I tell this other people they looked surprised, like is a weird thing. Some even mock it. So this is the question. Do you personaly know ANY conscious family? Or did you came from at least a heathy family? Which mistakes you think fuck up families (aside from the big obvious ones)?
  16. Wrote this 2 years ago:
  17. This is it, specially the 2nd video. Still, sitting in benches watching life pass and sitting under trees (hell, even climbing a bit and sitting in branches) is awesome. But awakening is most likely to happen with a higher state of consciousness + some guidance. So sitting in benches and under trees, can develop a great 'awareness muscle', but these deep exercices are key.
  18. We all know the problems with monogamy. So one of the 'solutions' this past decade was to go in overreaction into polyamory; but that is still trying to solve the problem at the same level of consciousness. In this podcast the talk about a different paradigm. They talk about holons. How to solve a problem (relationships) form a higher level that the one it was created. How to integrate and transcend. Integrity vs deception. Honesty vs shame. Whats your view on the evolution of monogamy especially for higher consciousness people?
  19. haha well, just saw the intro but Vylana seems way happier in this one. Nice move with this episode.
  20. Didnt expectat this at all. https://www.instagram.com/reel/DMauz17OmH5/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link No mainstream celebrities nowadays get to this level of understanding.
  21. Well, if its about disillusion it may work, but whats the price? Look at Sweeden crime rates. Nope, those people are not going to integrate. Too much of a jump in development. Everybody loses. Is a lose-lose situation. Exactly (well maybe not Antartica but still...)
  22. Bringng into your country thounsands and thousands of stage red peoeple is not going to evolve a country through the spiral.
  23. Ofc is almost imposible, thats why nobody does it. But still, you dont need to get to a elite level. If you meditate 1 hour per day, you go to some 1 week long retreats, you throw away your screens, and you contemplate deeply, you will reach an unbelievable level of presence, depth and wisdom. But you will have to reach financial tranquility or stay in your job and spend the rest of your time meditating/Contemplating
  24. I found this western version of Misogi. Its as simple as this: Some examples Im thinking about and some other ideas: -10 day solo retreat -multi-day solo hike -run a marathon/triathlon -10K race barefoot -amateur boxing fight -quit alcohol & smoking -1 week fast -biking across the country -publish a book -give a speech to +100 people -perform an open mic -solo travel -live for 1 month in other country (different language) -climb a high mountain. -climb a 100 foot tree -deep-water scuba diving -psychedelic retreat -launch a business Whatever. Can be a physical, mental, emotional or spiritual challenge. Or even better, a mix of those. You can decide the difficulty of it, but this is the key rule: My personal experience: I realize this is true when I did my first 3 day solo meditation retreat. Nothing super difficult, but still. Is challenging. When I did it, I haven't meditate in a year, so it was tough going from nothing to full time. So I realize that for the next one, I had to do daily meditation practice, eliminate cravings, quit social media & spend way less time on phone and online, resolve personal life problems, simply my life, and be confortable eating no meat/fish and drink less coffee (since I do no coffee and veggie food on retreats). Doing a retreat, or that 1 thing, forces you to live your day to day with a higher focus on better habits, so you can thrive in that retreat/challenge. Is like an exam. If forces you weeks-months to study hard if you want to pass. School structure was ritght in that sense. Contemplate on it. What is your 1 thing for this year or 2026?
  25. Speaking about bullshit:
