  1. @Leo Gura Hey Leo can I come upstairs? 😏😉
  2. Nice! 🤙❤️ Have fun y'all
  3. @Natasha Tori Maru Thanks. Yes exactly 💯 a state of not knowing is an Emptiness that flourishes and blossoms into beautiful insights and consciousness
  4. @Rigel Hey man, I read your last post on living your life purpose! Keep going and read the books in the final section of the life purpose to tie it all in deeper and deeper. Namaste.
  5. @Leo Gura Thank you Leo , this all ties back to self actualization, consciousness and contemplation.
  6. @Rigel That's amazing brother 👏
  7. I will stay true to my actual experiences, not using AI to generate it for me or even explain it for me. The actual trip report is something special. It sucks we have to be extra savvy now but it puts our epistemic flashlights on point.
  8. @Davino That fight didn't happen, I went to an amateur boxing event trying to get an opponent on that date but I ended up spending half the day registering my fight book, seeing the doctor and getting approved as an amateur to compete. So by the time I finished the process, all the fights got booked.
  9. I am the blue trunk's. I finally had my first USA Amateur Boxing Fight in Lancaster California on 7/19/25. It's only been a few days after now, and man I've had to overcome so much adversity in the ring and outside it. I had my finger lacerated 3 weeks before I got a confirmation for an opponent, I accepted the fight anyways, train smart on my cardio and conditioning, doin sprints, and getting into fight shape while also healing and recovering from my finger which needed six stitches from the cut. I don't know how I did this with very little sparring just one week before the fight. I basically beat a guy that was 6'3 and he had an awkward unorthodox style but he was very powerful and skilled. So I was fighting someone my first fight that was a very good boxer with genetic attributes that were an advantage for him. I outboxed him, didn't get hit to much and picked my shots. He had great moments and he was butthurt that he lost. His team was respectful to me but he was not having it. It was a close fight and I would have been happy if he won but he was being a sore loser. Looking back on the fight and thinking about it, I can see mistakes that I made and opportunities that I didn't capitalize on. But then again I beat him with one good hand. I am critical of myself and also very proud of myself. I really feel comfortable sharing my journey here on the forum because I feel this is directly tied to my passion and interest in actualized.org. You know,Peter Ralston was an amazing martial artist along with his consciousness work 😎 check out a book by him on @Leo Gura Booklist that combines physical excellence with increased consciousness, it definitely helps me, maybe it can for you to. Thanks Leo
  10. @Dazgwny From a heightened state of consciousness yes
  11. @Sugarcoat Sugarcoat reminds me of people sugarcoating Truth, like making something other than what it is to make it easier to swallow. I don't like sugarcoating hahah. Like a comfortable lie, or just plain ignorance. No offense or disrespect to you.
  12. @Nick_98 You have limited time as a human. Just because you can generate insights into the nature of something doesn't mean your ego will just get whatever it wants. It's completely immature the way your framing it. You can have amazing insights into any domain, but you must examine your motivations, and why you are doing this. Why would you want to be number one in anything in your case? Why the need to be the best in tennis in your case?
  13. @Nick_98 In 1978, he became the first non‑Asian ever to win the World Championship full-contact martial arts tournament held in the Republic of China (Taiwan) . His martial arts credentials are impressive. By age 20 he had earned black belts in Judo, Jujitsu, and Karate, was the sumo champion of his high school in Japan, and had been Judo and fencing champion at UC Berkeley. He also studied Kempo, Ch’uan Fa, Northern Sil Lum Kung Fu, and later internal arts like Tai Chi, Hsing‑I, and Pa Kua Chang Go research Peter Ralston and read his books you fluff
  14. @Leo Gura this is top notch cringe. Thanks for sharing this channel on your blog. Both of you should do an episode or podcast together talking about fake spirituality
  15. Wow @Leo Gura that video on your blog of of increasing your feminine was amazing. It made me feel really good in my body listening to her explaining this. What is Feminine? It's a great question. Wow, some insights that occurred to me in my mind is that being feminine is about accepting and flowing with Truth. Not just dry truth, but a living Truth. Not this or that, but this and that!!! It's being fully alive within my body, receiving truth, beauty and love. It's a constant flux of changing energy. It's being open and allowing of reality. It's Maya fully naked and fully comfortable with being. It's so fucking hard for me to explain, but it's not logical in a any logical sense
  16. @Leo Gura fake spirituality is trying to possess the Truth! To try and sell Truth through products, merchandise and spiritual language. Also it's twisting Truth. Fake spirituality is also using no self as an escape hatch of some sort. And also it's thinking spirituality is about arriving somewhere or some state. Boom!!!
  17. The difference is profound and deep. Fake spirituality in one sense is beliefs and core hidden assumptions that maintains this selfish drive to survive. Survival is an extremely complex nuance topic that I can't fully explain here now, Leo does an amazing job helping us see what survival is. But fake spirituality is connected with survival. Like using spirituality as an overcoat or garment over this fake person, being a phony. Also it's deeply tied to corruption and all forms of self deception and outright devilry. Also it's thinking and surviving in a way that feeds this ego, accomplishing things for relatively good intentions but it's like trying to fill a voidless void, trying to be virtuous in the name of virtue, it's also equivalent to dog shit. Fake spirituality is construction of illusion, survival and the social matrix. Real spiritually is deprogramming the mind. Real spirituality is Truth.
  18. Leo I have a question. Ken Wilber emphasizes stages of spiritual intelligence or states of consciousness at specific rungs on a developmental ladder in spirituality. Someone can be tribal and magical but does it mean that it's fake spirituality? Like 11:11, 3:33, frequencies like this guy His videos have helped me over the years, he has an amazing personality and I met him at Venice Beach while skateboarding 😁. Just curious. No fluff
  19. True psychonauts know hahah. Controversial guy, what are your takes on him?
  20. @emil1234 that's a gnarly way to put it. Technically speaking you are right. I have been conscious in deep dreamless sleep and it's so hard to explain.
