  1. Charlottesville Response (2017) White nationalist rally in Charlottesville turned violent. Heather Heyer was killed.Trump said there were “very fine people on both sides.” Just and absolute fucking refusal to directly condemn neo-Nazis and white supremacists.
  2. Family Separation Policy (2018) Under Trump’s “zero tolerance” immigration policy, thousands of children were forcibly separated from their parents at the border. Kids were kept in cages / detention facilities with foil blankets, sometimes for weeks or months. Records were poorly kept, hundreds of kids were never reunited with their families. The images and sounds of children crying for their parents shocked the world. What's fucked up is Instead of showing compassion, Trump doubled down, defending the policy and blaming Democrats.
  3. Access Hollywood Tape, “Grab ‘em by the pussy". bragging about sexual assault in a leaked recording.
  4. Amazing!!! The book list along with the life purpose course was probably the two top investments I've ever made in my young life. Keep going bro, you just inspired me again to go to the book list
  5. The ego!!! Besides politics, just observe the communication behavior and patterns of a low consciousness individual. The animosity he's expressing at a deceased memorial is absurd. And also how are you gonna claim "the answer" to autism? Solution being "not taking Tylenol for pregnant women". Autism is a nuanced issue involving, environment, genetics and age! This is preposterous.
  6. 😂😂 Dude, Listening to Trump freestyle for ten minutes feels like I’m developing cognitive thrombosis, a total clot in the flow of ideas.
  7. I've never seen a president act like this in public haha
  8. Happiness is not something found in the world of experience. You can have fleeting moments of satisfaction and pleasure but they will pass and change. Your happiness is contingent on the circumstances that serve you positively. You cannot truly be happy unless you understand deeply what you are and what the world is, then happiness is not about some experience that you have, happiness is the internal realization that nothing can make you happy, paradoxically. Nothing is the greatest joy, and nothing can give you happiness. Something cannot give you lasting happiness because that something changes eventually, Nothing as your true nature gives you real happiness It's nuanced. Generally speaking most people need the right things for themselves uniquely to be happy, but also at the highest levels of consciousness, Happiness is outside the realm of egoic survival
  9. @Leo Gura I literally lose one brain cell just from listening to trump.
  10. Dude, his debates were click bait and designed to appeal to gullible ideological fools that resonate with short heated arguments that went in circles and he dominated the debates with his ideas and radicalized religious dogma. The kids that he would debate with couldn't string a thought together and follow it to the point. He was arguing with mostly underdeveloped University kids that have been indoctrinated into ideologies and identities that they defended and people either rallied behind him or people just observed the absurdity. I'm sure there are good things in the Bible when you look at it from a meta-analysis or from a non-dual perspective, but he was certainly not at that level. Basically a rational ideological religious fanatic spreading political memes and viruses.
  11. Okay hold on! Charlie was always on the Instagram and YouTube algorithm showing only clips of him debating University trans, and kids pretty much locked into the academic paradigm with very little advanced epistemic and rational skills. Those clips I noticed on the comments section that most people would rally behind him and talk down on the kids arguing with him. It seems like even black people love his position and ideology that he would spill out of his mouth. A lot of black people especially defend him and they even get offended by anyone that disagrees with him or has an opinion about his death, this makes me think. Do people that support him, especially fellow folks among us that aren't that versatile in politics only influenced by his ideas that confirm they're pre existing beliefs and positions? Because if you just seen a random clip of him roasting a trans person on an issue that they have no logic in, I'm sure anybody could get behind him and agree and even support him without really looking much further into his politics, ideology and his entire world view. It could be that the people whoever they are that follow him and love his college debate will be left with the impression of him being an absolutely good person and a selfless person that was telling the truth. This is very concerning because you cannot even talk to these people anymore because everything is so heated and tense
  12. Leo, I was feeling very fatigued and stressed a few hours ago, and while in this state I listened to your entire episode " the psychology of being wrong" and besides the profound lessons and teachings, I really wanted to extend my love for you. I was thinking about how much you suffered over the years with your health issues and I also realize how exhausting it can be to listen to an entire monstrous episode of yours let alone the exhaustion you may feel just from producing this insane amount of content. I know it must be very hard on your body and mind to do this, I just want to say thank you so much for sacrificing yourself for something greater. I know it may sound all hippy dippy and shit but I really mean it. You have given me immense value over the years, Is there anything I can do for you that can relieve you of your suffering?
  13. i think empathy is a True word that causes a lot of compassion in the world don't you think
  14. A solid marriage for me is to grab a tea with someone, sit on the super moon watching that new actualized.org episode and dipping our toes into the sky laughing at nothing
  15. It does seem to be chat, but that's okay because I'm trying to understand the Dynamics of what you described. I've noticed some women that are very reactive, emotionally shaky and very projective of their insecurities, fears and expectations onto their partners. They have a script of how a relationship is supposed to be and they mirror their expectations from the influence of modern dating portrayed in reality TV shows and romantic movies, by which if you don't follow the script of their expectations or you don't respond in a certain way, they will twist it on you and make your perceived wrongness the highlight of any interaction. They constantly need your validation and reassurance because they can't handle their own emotional states, so they need someone that can emotionally babysit them, or coddle them so they feel you love them. Because if you don't, oh boy! Hahah get ready for micromanaging, manipulation and tension in the relationship. Sorry for my digression 😆 Don't give up your sovereignty of mind, peace of mind, goals, passion and purpose for a woman. Not out of disrespect of her, but because you love yourself and respect yourself way to much to allow anyone, not just some women to neuter you man
  16. @Natasha Tori Maru I certainly will report back within the weeks and months to come with my experience and change from using just 5 grams of creatine everyday. Yes! I am aware of the ATP system and how creatine actively enhances this and retracts it. The more we study all this stuff the more fascinating it becomes. Our bodies are these extremely sophisticated, advanced and highly intelligent biological machines, and using just the right nootropics and supplements along with a healthy nutritious diet and lots of hydration really amplifies and tunes our nervous systems. I'm taking 2,000 mg of cordycep mushrooms in the morning because it also is an ATP blaster and creatine in my smoothie. It feels like I'm flying a fighter jet 😎 Very good. Curiosity and discipline is a beautiful relationship to have with yourself, I totally relate. You know that's a very good topic to contemplate, curiosity. What is that? Not to go into that territory here but just to spark that light of curiosity into the nature of curiosity. I'm saying this because I'm an extremely curious person and I'm willing to look over any edge just to see what it is.
  17. @Natasha Tori Maru Amazing! Totally understand you. Your killing it BTW 💪🙌 What kind of coffee and tea do you drink? I have matcha powder, I also love "Celsius" sometimes or "bucked up" energy drinks. What are your thoughts about those? Obviously monster, Red Bull and others are notoriously synthetic and added with additional layers of unclean stuff. So I'm curious as to know what are the best cleaners healthiest energy drinks, that shit is addicting. The creatine for sure I will continue to use, especially for the explosive and power Burst in between rounds and also for muscle fatigues. I spar 2-3 times a week so I get hit in the head pretty often and wonder if there's any benefits to that.
  18. That's a pretty neat and clear explanation. Thank you brother, I would love to get my hands on this. I have had nausea in the past from psilocybin. This sounds like something that I would take in a small dose at first and just sit at home by myself, do yoga read the book list and contemplate existence and my own life.
  19. @Natasha Tori Maru Girl! I have creatine at home and I only take 5 g of it in powder form and water and I have been experimenting with it for a few weeks, one thing I noticed is that my body feels extremely stronger. I usually walk around between 135 and 140 lb but I bulked up to 155 because of creatine. It's cool but I'm not used to the extra weight and I feel more comfortable lighter but not a big deal, I definitely feel the water retention you do need to drink a lot of water with it. I'm going to start using it again especially since I get hit in the head a lot from sparring I think it is something that I will continue to use.
  20. Danm!! From a MMA point of view, holy shit!! But from any other perspective, damn lol Recall that movie blood and Bone, the very last scene where he fights at that huge mansion
  21. More gems. Yeah it's like our character is baked into the moment by moment decisions we make with ourselves. We can maintain our integrity or break it by lying to ourselves or being self honest. When you're mindful in the moment before you make a deceitful or non-integral decision, it adds this layer of self-reflective conscience or inner barometer of integrity that makes the allure of such choices less attractive and instead we take a more mature route.
  22. That's the difficult work, embodying Truth, not just as a philosophy but as our entire way of living. There's a powerful book by Peter Ralston on Leo's Booklist that really explains the difference between enlightenment and transformation, you can't miss it. Basically, even when you have an enlightenment or an awakening, that doesn't change your situations or egoic survival habits, changing ourselves is a different matter but when you can understand the confusion between the two, you can use both to to increase consciousness and to embody those insights rather than splitting them both and not aligning our lives with the Truth. Yo your a cool dude, I seen your videos over the years🔥 stay blessed man
  23. I just watched Leo's episode "What are Holons? Understanding Holism part 1" incredible how that concept ties into this.
