Tier 2 must look like this: LMAAAO

@Carl-Richard What if a person is very open-minded, intelligent and spiritual(like really not just new agey), but they didnt know about SM. And then say this person whatch Leo's videos, read the book and contemplated for himself. Do you still think it will take decades to reach tier 2? Does this generalization of(taking decades to go through the stages aply to this person?) Wouldn't this person by default be pretty much at least stage green?

Most people don't integrate it and instead parrot some words. They say things like "I went from Orange to Yellow, skipping Green", they approach different problems with the same one-size-fits-all solution, they distill a problem down to one or a few key factors and that's it, they have a cartoon-like grasp of concepts. It doesn't track on real ground, only on word salad grounds: "relativity", "perspective", "meta". Careful, this can also be a trap. Subtle arrogance in thinking people doesn't understand well enough or have a 'cartoon-like' comprehension of a model like SM and it's stages.

Thanks man. It's a work in progress, ain't always easy, but there's certain benefits and principles you can derive from mystical experiences for such situations. 1. Everyone is free to have their own perspective and opinion on God, and none of them diminish or contradict God in the slightest, it's all TRUE, no matter what it is, how relatively wrong it is, absolute wrong is just not a thing. 2. Those in possession of truth do not need to debate or prove it, you may engage in some good faith discussions to a certain point, but if the signal isn't getting through save your energy and leave it be. Conceding defeat is liberating. 3. Due to the infinite capacity of Consciousness for denial and obfuscation, if someone's unwilling to accept what you're communicating, there's nothing to be done about it, it's a hermetic seal on the mind. 4. Your automatic egoic reaction to disagreement and conflict is still present, but over time it grows weaker and weaker till you're completely detached and are just having fun. And look, there's no such thing as bad publicity. Usually my threads get like 2-3 replies tops, most often none, but look how this here has sprawled You are very mature. Incrível

For myself I think of thoughts as an electrical pattern of energy, a nerve pulse that has a frequency. That frequency in the brain creates a field, which gives rise to the emotion. I use the analogy of an electrical toroid wire with a current applied: we know a current passed through a wire induces a force called magnetism. So in the above example - the thought 'electric current' arises, which induces an emotion 'magnetism' that has a polarity. The magnetism or 'emotion' in the body has very real effects: blood pressure can rise or lower, heartrate, breathing etc. This emotion will effect your state, and what you draw or push away from you. This is a brainy way of looking at it. I like it, thanks for the perspective Yeah the thing with thought is that it's very strange-loopy in it's nature; so you can't really grasp it by using it, not really I think. But the basic profound fact still remains: it exists.

Can an ant trust its insights into the nature of reality? What about a cockroach? And which insight is right, mine, yours, the ant or the cockroach?

Shhh, don't ruin my eternal hide and seek

How do you know? Can you trust yourself? Isn't your 'knowing' just a perspective at best?

What is thought? What is anything? Can you ever find that out?

In this era is very unlikely you gonna find someone who just happen to be spiritual without any emotional/traumatic reasons to pursue the path. Consider the possibility that because of such difficult experiences those people might actually become awakened than if they had a perfectly "normal" life. As they say, to reach heaven you have to have roots deep in hell.

Raves, retreats, new age circles.

This is beauty. I would like to add a comment on the speaking ability itself. On my journeys, I had a profound realization on the beauty an intelligence of language. Every word, every syllable is impossible profound, really something divine. Every word in every language has incredible conscioussness in it, a refined intelligence in the way it is. Every conversation that you have with someone, has profound implications in reality, the words you speak affect reality, in incredible subtle ways. And like you say words and actions have weight, but this is really profound once you realize why it is so.

@Nilsi He is just bending over backwards to say the same thing. Reality is a paradox and at the same time, it is not. You are, and you are not. This is the absolute. You have to find it, and at the same time, you have not. You can never fail, and you can fail to find.

@Davino Wow, fantastic. Really fascinating to learn about this culture. They don't have past or future in their language(like chinese), they don't have numbers(abstractions), they don't have a name for colour. All in all their language and culture has spirituality baked into it - they are here now, in the present, the only place you could ever be.

Sorry for your loss my friend. Cats are beautiful creatures and very loving too.

That's just because those women were underdeveloped and immature.

This is very caveman-ish

I mean, you are trolling with this frame. All I'm saying is that the providing logical male and the receiving emotional female is not entirely true. Or even, the best perspective on the matter.

Yeah I agree with you in general. Masculine and feminine are energies within each one of us. Man have feminine energies and women masculine ones. It's not so black and white as a masculine leading and the feminine receiving/being vulnerable; the fantasy of a man providing for his woman simply doesn't hold anymore(If both partners are conscious enough to dispel the masculine/feminine categories). We need the balance so that individual is not lopsided and full of self-deception.

Fair enough. You are right in being skeptical. I am too, it is right in not believing his crazy claims he makes about ETs, but I don't fully discard it either. It's important that we adopt skepticism with open-mindness in this work.

@Thought Art How do you know he is faking it? Have you investigated channeling for yourself?

A hot alien girlfriend

Because God is hiding stuff from itself(out of love).

There's truths to this, especially if you analyse past Leo.

Lmaao, too real @Leo Gura exposed
