When I have deep trips on psychedelics, I’m not able to maintain my focus and awareness very well. It’s almost like I arrive at a destination I want to explore, but I immediately hit a brick wall and snap out of that experience. Is this an issue you’ll address in your course?

It’s beyond logic as well… amazing. I can’t believe it, but at the same time it all makes sense. I will continue to explore Truth.

Thank you for the pointers and your guidance. Earlier today I was crying… it felt like all the pain that was inside me was flowing out like a river. It’s amazing how freeing it is when personal control is surrendered - even just a little. I feel more in touch with my emotions; the judgements of my present experience are quieting down.

I had an experience like that last night, I think. I didn’t go as deep as I wanted, but I’m totally fine with that. I’m making huge progress relative to my own history (not comparing myself to other people’s journey).

Lava syndrome?

When you say “piece your heart consciously”, you don’t mean literally, right?

I have OCD, and that’s how treatment works for it. I expose myself to smaller fears, while not doing compulsion to neutralize the fear. Once I overcome the smaller fears, I work my way up to more challenging ones. That’s also similar to how my ketamine treatment went. They started me with a low dose, then ramped up to higher dosages. By my last session I was able to do it without a therapist by my side. Yes, I’ve met some in real life. It’s something I need to purposefully do and practice, though, as it’s not something that’s natural for me. Yes, I live in Texas. It’s ironic since Texas is a conservative state; yet ketamine treatment is legal and openly available to those who need it. I’ve shared a bit of my experience here.

So I said this 3 months ago. I’m starting to reinterpret those “panic attacks”. Whenever I have those experiences now, I’m curious about them and observe, instead of immediately believing something is wrong and reaching out for help (like I used to). I’ll continue to delve deeper into these experiences as they arise.

I would like to add that, to be fair, Leo did at one point teach about enlightenment, meditation, and nonduality. Given this, of course his students would be confused and misled. On the other hand, we can’t allow that to be an excuse, as Leo had to also make those mistakes himself. It takes guts to not only point out that the prior teachings are null, but to also take this ship in a different direction by not continuing to entertain the old teachings. Feel free to correct me if I’m wrong about my observation.

I have OCD and avoidance is a compulsion of mine. Beautiful things unfold when I do the opposite of what the OCD bully tells me what to do OCD is protecting me from God-realization, but little does OCD know that God is the Master.

Yep, facing your fear is what’s going on. And you are imagining fear.

Ok

If there’s one thing I’m becoming convinced about more and more, is that all of this is imagination. Insights, enlightenment, psychedelics, drugs, nirvana, time, space, planets, science, religion, solipsism, materialism, life, death, logic, spirits, animals, aliens, etc., etc. Of course, this is clearly the case from higher states of consciousness. Trying to understand this at lower states is like asking a fish to fly into outer space while wearing a tuxedo.

Seems like the only practical way is to go beyond human consciousness. I look forward to taking your upcoming course; I’ll highly consider doing a ketamine IV infusion around the time I take the course. Not gonna lie, it’s pretty funny that you’re arguing with, quite literally, a rubber duck

When everyone here claims that they’re Awake

“No, no, don’t mind me. I’m just here to observe.”

I Love all of YOU.

Not a cult, confirmed!

IMAGINATION

Who is determining what a real awakening is and a fake awakening?

Thank you, God. I will continue doing my homework.

Love this. I left religion, only to find myself following nonduality. It’s an improvement in certain aspects, but I’m starting to see that even nonduality locks you inside a “box”. Thank you for helping us discover that there are infinite kinds of Awakening to explore. The belief that there’s only one Awakening really kept me stuck and frustrated at myself.

This short article explains it well: https://www.psychologytoday.com/us/basics/autism/neurodiversity-and-the-benefits-autism#what-are-the-benefits-of-thinking-differently I think a great example is how I spend most of my time socializing. I like to spend time in small Twitch communities. There’s a streamer live broadcasting, and there’s a chatroom. I socialize in the chatroom. I think pre-pandemic, lots of people would’ve had a paradigm that that’s not “real” socializing. I think the pandemic has opened a lot of people’s minds regarding online social interaction, and they’re open to seeing that as “real” now. Or what about VR social interaction? If, in VR I find myself in a forest with others, am I really in a forest with others or am I in my living room by myself? Hmm… Of course, I still believe there needs to be a balance between online and offline social interaction (something I still struggle with). Exactly. Thank you I have a lot of negative self talk about myself, but it’s gotten a lot better after I did psychedelic treatment last year (done legally; under medical and therapist supervision). I continue to work on it!

Once this thread reaches 1,000 posts, somebody will awaken

I think if Leo had to answer every single question he was asked on here, he would have killed himself by now. Also, he has a course coming up. It will answer your questions. Invest money into it and take the course.
