I understand that many people customize Leo's teachings to suit their own needs, but I have a genuine question: how do you approach and integrate his teachings? I recognize that integration is part of the yellow stage, tier 2 thinking, so I’m curious about your methods. It seems that Leo’s ideas and concepts stem from his awareness and evolution through different stages of ego development. Would it be fair to say that a productive way to engage with his work is to study the nine stages of ego development and reflect on how to integrate each one? As you do this, you might find connections to ideas in his other videos. His concepts often feel like they’re woven together in a complex web, with the nine stages serving as a central framework that helps make sense of everything, ultimately guiding us toward meta-rationality and greater self-awareness.

What is or in other words isness , when you are not pointing at it with your defecient perception or linguistic pointers .

Hello, everyone. I would appreciate your suggestions on how to handle toxic Stage Red behaviors, such as catcalling, sexual harassment, and violence among teens and young men. How can we approach this issue, especially since the Blue stage often normalizes such behaviors or lacks awareness of their dangers? I’m looking for ways to address this without directly confronting those exhibiting these behaviors. Additionally, what strategies can we implement to foster a culture of respect and assertiveness among peers and others who may not be considered their peers ?

@Leo Gura Yes . Since you are already leading people somewhere into metarationality , and Tier 2 thinking and all the episodes you have that are practical or have understanding feature into them helps the audience to reach to tier 2 , then I thought I should focus on Development psychology videos since that is what you are trying to teach people to move towards . I wasted a bit time studying Practical episodes independently, when I should have understood that they should help me move to the second stage with , in SD and 9 Stages model .

@Leo Gura

Hey Leo, I’ve been following your work, and in your last episode, you talked about narrowing your niche and guiding us towards Spiral Dynamics Tier 2, construct awareness, and metarationality. It sounds like an amazing journey! Your episode on post-modernism was fantastic. I have a couple of questions. Since everything seems to hinge on the Spiral Dynamics stages and the 9 Stages of Ego Development, do you think it’s more effective to use the principles you discuss to transcend or integrate these stages, rather than diving into each episode separately? For example, should I assess where I am in both Spiral Dynamics and the ego development stages, and then apply relevant principles from your episodes to integrate and transcend these stages holistically? Is this the approach others are taking? Also, could insights from episodes like the Psychology of Being Wrong and life traps help identify what’s blocking progress in our current stage? And then, once we see results, use other episodes and psychological principles to move forward with you guys toward other stages ? - I’m coming from a purple culture with some blue influences and a few orange institutions, but no green. Thanks!

@Leo Gura How about contemplating this problem , and try to brainstorm questions and answers and then rewire the problem . Like ask myself , what are the ways in which I am failing to love myself ? - And then contemplating the answer and grounding myself in practical example . Or questions , how do I behave when I don't love myself ? - what psychological concepts I need to understand to make self-love easy ? - How the ego that is deficient in love behaves and frames reality and may be after that work on each problem that results in this deficiencies like bad assumption , defaulting authority to others , having a weak sense of self , being unhappy -- which of course you have supplied the audience with video teachings about .

@Leo Gura Thank you

@Leo GuraThis might sound crazy, but I'm really lost when it comes to creating concepts like the frame of how messed up my life is. Can you help me brainstorm some questions? The thing is, I struggle with loving myself. I don’t love myself, and I think it goes way back to when I was a kid. I was constantly criticized for everything, to the point where my internal monologue is just messed up. It feels like there’s nothing I can do—whether it's moving, walking, whatever—without feeling guilty or getting investigated .

@Leo Gura You've mentioned before that everything can be seen from a certain perspective, like there's always a context for how you look at something. I really dig your ideas, even when they aren't directly related to the main topic. For example, you've talked about setting the player's frame in dating situations, and that kind of stuff sticks with me. Here's what I'm wondering: when it comes to having a strong or weak frame, would you say that some of your practical advice—like in your videos on gaslighting, double standards, and What is neuroticism and other practical videoss —is all about building a strong frame? Do you think these approaches work better than the usual steps people follow to develop a strong frame that others can pick up on? Also, because the concept of frame is kind of nebulous and fuzzy, you mentioned in the gaslighting episode how some people just have a strong sense of reality, and I totally agree. You, for example, have this commanding presence that grabs attention. How can that be accomplished? Is frame also about how others see you physically before you even speak? We all know how creepy guys can have a frame, but it’s a useless and dangerous one—whatever they say makes women anxious, but if the same thing is said by an attractive guy, it doesn’t come off as creepy at all.

@Leo Gura Or they detained him because so much of israeli telegrams are celeberating death of palestinians , and they are tryin to contain the damage and change Israel's perception .

@Leo Gura Fair enough . thank you .

@Leo Gura Hey, thanks for your input. Just to clarify: I was asking why psychopaths and narcissists seem to have a strong grip on their reality. Is it because they operate from a strong self-interest and aren’t swayed by others' opinions? I’m wondering if building aspects of the 'physical pillar'—like muscles and coordination—can impact someone's sense of reality, making them feel more grounded because someone who is physically weak , and doesn't care about their body much , would not see how a strong sense of reality requires objective pillars like physical pillar . Appreciate your thoughts!"

@Leo Gura I have enjoyed your two episodes the psychology of being wrong and gaslighting . Your concepts in their essence is a form of respecting people's soverignity . I want to ask you something - Two questions if you wish to answer . I would appreciate if you answer them both -- You mentiond an intresting topic in gaslighting , about how some people have a weak sense of reality and you give some good answers about how to have a strong sense of reality in the form of being aware of self-deception , developing holistic thinking , deriving answers , and more . Now two questions please : 1. How come people like psychopaths , and narcissits have a strong sense of reality ? - Is it the fact they operate by a default self-Interest and their own mental point origin while others have frame defined by what people may think of them and that affect their emotional system and their body language. 2. Is it possible our physical pillar which constitute muslces , back , coordination , sexual energy , martial arts ,hygiene , grooming , style and those aspects of physical pillar can either increase yourr sense of reality or decrease it if they don't exist . Like , there are cases , where clueless men , believe there issue is the social skills ,or what they said in a relationship ,when in fact it's the fact that they don't care abou their physical pillar which affects their perception of reality and how women or others view them . they demand respect , when they have not demonstrated value . They want to be appealed to as an authrity but their physical pillar is weak

I would appreciate if you have his Episodes as pdf for the entire scripts to follow through and highlight .
