Find the book called " Adult Children of Emotionaly Imature Parents" by Dr Linsay C Gibson. I dont know all about the dynamic between you and your Mom. Read the book and check by yourself if some of the examples in the book fit your case.

Maybe when people get triggered by his arrogance and statments of having the beat this and the best that is also that people are unconsciously projecting their own shadow on him. Because, is not true that a lot of people tend to think and affirm they they are the ones having the best,knowing the best and being the best? Is not true that everyone thinks they are portents of the Truth. I not defending Leo, let he do it bt himself, but if he want to think he have the best music selection what can I do to convince him he is wrong? Maybe I can share my best curation of songs but f9r sure he will no lt like many of them. Even the songs I use to enjoy last year I dont enjoy that much this year so, this question of best curation is very mutable.

Gosh, the overcomplication is ashtonishing. The point is not what is God it is what could possibily not to be God/Truth/Actuality/Infinity/Love/Consciousness. We can keep categorizing till out least breath and would be not enogth to grasp everything. I farted while writing this words. The warm feeling of the fart is also God. -
My limit was 7 grams with harmala. I was quite ok, but my friends were rolling in the ground and making love with the earth. One even kissed the earth and end up with the mouth full of dirt.

Lets face it, humans love this killing game. Although I understand that war is part of the reality and humans are killing each others since the dawn of times, still when I watch this I can't avoid to see the folly of all this devices, the use of intelligence to create weapons. When this kids will grow up and stop this "Lord of Flyies" drama?

I get myself wishing to share with someone in mind but very often i let go of this urge and surrender to the fact that I am ok with only me understanding the topics of my interrest and well, if some of my peers end up to be interested in something they go and look for themselfes. Most of the time I dont think others will understand some stuff or appreciate as I do. Leo videos are one of this videos that I think about sharing but when I hear the kind of stuff people talk about around me I can clearly see that if I would share Actualized videos with them they would not treat it as precious as I do. Yes I a bit arrogant from my part and distrustfull in the capacity of others to be openminded and curious as I am. I hope one day I find apreciators around me that can have the patience to listen for long videos with their mouth shut and really listen. One time I was listening with one person and rigth in the beggining the video the person asked: How long is this video? When I said the timing he said: Oh no!! To long for me. So, yeah, most people dont even give a fuck, so whu will I bother to lose my time to nudge them into wisdom and they are rolling shit as ot was gold?

For every word in this sentence that now I take for granted as something perenial forever existing we can trace a origin and a evolution and as the video points out the very survival of every letter. The reasons for the Tranformation of every simbol probably is lost in history but is interesting to notice that this language that I am using to transmit meaning and extract meaning is nothing but playing with sticks toghether in a strange way but this strange game of language can be so powerfull that depending on how I use my alphabeth or my Ox and Hut I can cause someone to cry,laugth,rage,kill or even to realize some aspects of reality that he or she would never be able to realize without the use of this strange play of sticks. For example every video of Gura is basicaly him using this sounds made by his breath passing by his vocal cords, and strangely enogth if one listen to some videos in a very high state of consciousness one can get mind fucked with what one is listening. Just sounds articulated by the mouth of someone. Weird hum.

Yeah, there are so much going on in the planet, but this Elephant in the Room is hard to deny. Of course is only one factor among hundreds but let be real, humans love Meat, and I don't see in the near future a reduction on the appetite, so the industry keep going. Found today this Doc from 7 months ago.

I am this days reflecting in Fairness and found out this Book from Thomas Sowell. Any one of you guy know more about this topic inside the context of Sowell Vision? Below there is a video that Summary the ideias for those who wish to take a fast look into this thing he calls "Cosmic Justice " This is not a comforting book -- it is a book about disturbing issues that are urgently important today and enduringly critical for the future. It rejects both "merit" and historical redress as principles for guiding public policy. It shows how "peace" movements have led to war and to needless casualties in those wars. It argues that "equality" is neither right nor wrong, but meaningless. The Quest for Cosmic Justice shows how confused conceptions of justice end up promoting injustice, how confused conceptions of equality end up promoting inequality, and how the tyranny of social visions prevents many people from confronting the actual consequences of their own beliefs and policies. Those consequences include the steady and dangerous erosion of the fundamental principles of freedom -- and the quiet repeal of the American revolution

Well, is there is a lesson that I got this last 3 months was this. If you or someone is fucking up with your sleep quality you or them are actually killing you slowly. There are thousand videos online about it and is not any gospel, Hubermans and others are preaching it as I was the ultimate savation for humanity. But this video get to the point of everything I had experienced this months the good and the bad. Good, work towards Awakening but if you dont sleep well your health will not be in good conditions even to normy daily live Worth watching

This book talks about the topic of how Language when became writen created subtly a division or split in consciousness and then instead of having a oral Language that is linked with the overall nature,animals,Land and the whole ecology we started having a writen linear Language that kept refleting us to ourselves again and again. To have a better grasp of the juice of the book there is the video from the author so you can see if fit your studies. Of course there always some bias but this book brogth me a lot of clarification in some aspects of Language that I use to have only a intuition https://www.amazon.com/Spell-Sensuous-Perception-Language-More-Than-Human/dp/0679776397

https://www.instagram.com/reel/Cm9e5KatKdI/?igshid=YmMyMTA2M2Y= I am recieving many news about the topic of companies now starting to rethink all the remote work model. What do you guys think, it all like a pendulum where things started to get to loose and now getting back to strict and regulated. I had a friend that was working remotely and was finding ways to slack a lot, so I can see the point of companies returning to the in-office model.

Follow your interests, ignore the rest. The videos are in YouTube for all to see. They will find of they engage in the rigth search. I even forgot how I found the channel, but for sure I was inquiring in the rigth direction. When you look for Truth it eventually finds you.

Interesting POV on how and why the quality of Movies, especially Heros movies decreased in modern times. Also a critic on how Masculinity was degraded via this movies. I noticed this subtle effects while watching these movies and personaly know is inevitable but still goog to see that I was not the only one to notice it

@StarStruck You can downsize your mentality if you wish to engage and possibily have sex, but ask yourself why do you want to engage in conversation with mindless minds. For me better to save my saliva for good talks.

Family is Karmic bonds, if you are the only one doing healing work, well,good luck. I say this cause is my case. Going to retreats, purging my shit away, observing patterns but when I go to my family I need to be sharp and open eyes or ears as a hawk because the projections,manipulations and deflections in case I speak up are incredebly sneaky. Helps a lot doing the study work from books and from observing. But lets admit that sometimes the best one can think about doing is going as soon as possible as far as possible from the dramas. Sometimes far from them one heals karma better than close. Unless you enjoy the meatgrinder.

Although I can see clearly that when he say "we" he is speaking for an abstract "we" when he say "leave us alone" but still I agree that there is a lot of "utopia" and blindeness to the complexity coming from the side of "they" (whosoever they are). Peterson exist for a reason, channel a certain energy in the air, the voice of "enough is enogth" that many want to speak but cant.

@Jodistrict yes, my point on him is that there is little concern for the planet in the discourse. Is just the we vs them. Whenever I listen someone now a days I ask myself: How much this person is polarizing? Of course zero polarizing is hard but there are cases that is extremely clear. -
Is not Trauma something we hide from view so we dont need to see it anymore? Is not true that a lot of things that guide our behavior are mostly hiden behind cope mechaninsm to avoid facing some hard realities about our relationships be it with parents,society,money or whatever other thing? Well, a random line os events brougth me to a new way to see the word or concept of Dukka that normaly we take as suffering. But somewhere in the video below the writer explain that he found out Dukka as "something difficult to face or see" or as he say, in the therapeutic set "a trauma". He came to his work via the story of Buddha and is known that Buddha lost his Mother in early age so the writer considered that maybe this took the young Siddartha to somehow go into the path of Dissasociation in a way to deal with this traumatic event in his development. And then one day he got the contentment after all years of struggle. Hard to explain so for who wish check the video below What brogth me to this author was another guy that deals more especialy with the issue of Grief and the lack of space in society to Grief loss. For those in the path of looking deep into "things had to see" or Dukka, this is also a good guy to check the work. His name is Francis Weller. Anyway comming back to the problem of using ancient terms is that we somehow lack in may ways the context where these terms came up and we get new modern interpretations that sometimes had nothing to do with the original intent of the word. From the link below https://discourse.suttacentral.net/t/what-is-the-best-translation-for-dukkha/5025 I got this: "The most common translation for dukkha is “suffering.” I have always felt that this translation is nearly a little harsh and have preferred “unsatisfactoriness. " Many years ago I had to translate the Chinese word “qi” 气. I decided not to translate it using one of the common methods; by looking at the origin of character; steam coming off rice. Instead I looked at how the word was used by ancient writers. I noticed that there were about 20 different meanings depending on who the author was and what dynasty. In the end though I was able to trace it back to its most original use, which could be summed up as that vital essence of air or that “thing” within air that gives birth to life, movement and manifestations of the physical world. Can we do the same for dukkha, to see how it was ‘used’ throughout the early suttas and find the correct translation not based on etymology but how it was originally used. One of the issues I see is that so many things are dukkha. Being one of the core concepts of Buddhism I can’t help but feel the importance of a correct translation, especially when I have seen so many different ones with the most recent being “stress." I recently came across a translation of anattā as “void of self”, this translation seemed to make much more sense to me than “non-self” or 无我. One may argue these are minor nuances, but for me these differences in translations are profound as they have very different meanings.
