This video provides zero evidence for his inner workings.

Achieving this is a life long journey. But what is the first direct step in the present perception of the now to true philosopy in your perspective? Mine would be pure self observation.

You could also choose to immerse into every aspect of each stage. But without the violence and opression. Observation, deliberate exposure and experience. @Ramanujan

Waiting is the expectation for closure. Waiting = expectation But what is "expectation"? And what is "closure"?

Yes if you are very spiritual you will take tremendous amount of action in the direction of truth. Of course from a position of selfloathing and self hate you certainly will keep bad habits, and you wont make an afford to be healthy or even recognize your mistakes. The mind can certainly also affect your body greatly but dont expect wonders and take it as an excuse to stay passive. Magical weigth loss certainly not, only truthful information will let you achieve this. Of course your energy bodys can affect your system and metaphysical aspects are possibly also at play but without a strong foundation it wont help, everything must align. @Maratib

Dreaming and creativity

@davecraw My exsistence.

The presentation of the self image and the day to day interaction is so two faced it hurts me. I want to speak more according to my truth (im not saying "the Truth" because im certainly not capable in doing this as a constant). I try not to lie so im often stuck in half truths, which still feels like a lie. Being truthful seems to cause more problems and is constricted by a survival mechanism to reduce day to day conflict and judgement. And self preservasion from people that arent aware of themselves or simply not care about it or a straight out malevolent. Workings of the Ego yada yada yada... Of course i dont want to take this to an extrem where i talk to people about the consistency of my shit. But in regard in paradigms, for example nutrition, bias, holistic thinking, politics........... I no it depends on what position you are in and situation but it sometimes feels like im witholding information and being a devil even though would not take it seriously or ignore it. I have this moments when it hurts and i feel disgusting. How can i move in a more healthy postition where this does not become a reason for self loathing, distress and feeling split? Being in truth with my current web of belief, paradigm, perception, biases, thoughts, actions, is not the absolute truth but its certainly better than to be lying as a lie. Am I stuck in morality? Is it just a sad truth? Do i have no backbone or integrity? Fear? Shallow Person? Sometimes i want to be so truthful i would certainly end up being dead as a result. And now it feels like im lying.

@Sugarcoat Thats some wisdom thanks.

Yeah Im an alien but i choose the full dive experience and im here to struggle. For now

I misinterpreted the language, but now i fully agree.

But not if you want to "grasp" absolute truth.

I can agree because its only a dream and conciousness does not reincarnate it just is.

God will dream reincarnation. Or are you being sarcastic? Elaborate, please

create one.

You should stop this mindless distractive youtube binge watching entirely.

Sounds great i really should get started with serious work. Whats your sadhana?@inFlow

Good advice. Do you think developing better communication skills would help? @Sugarcoat

I will try to aplly this in time. Thank you!

@inFlow But it feels like life wants me to be so truthful I let go of everything and it is so hard i burst out in tears even thinking about it.

There was an occassion where i spoke truth and some hours afterwards i felt deeply grounded and all my fears and believes and soaked up impressions of others went silent for a short time.

Recognizing Systems is easy in comparision to unrevealing cycles within those. Is it my way of thinking or that recognizing patterns also involves a direct experience of trial and error, which can only be unterstood by experience and learning and observation. The loops within a simple system can easily be recognized, but not so easily with complex linear or nonlinear ones. The only efficent way for recognizing cycles and patterns in systems i can think of right now is gathering a lot of information. Is there a better way for seeing and understanding cycles? And yes, i have watched leos videos on this topic. Here are my own rather unintelligent quick thoughts i had when writing this question:

Pretend that every past failure you had up until your present moment, where part of a genius plan that unfolded. How would that look like? This is not ment for self pity but to really flip the coin and jump out of victim mentality. I had that this idea yesterday and it was fun to do. Get creative.

I mean i can see beauty in expressing oneself through true islam or religion. But not if it comes at the cost of the good expression of god.
