Dodo

I don't know if im reading too deep into it, but I dont exclude reason for removing the video is not backlash or whatever, but a subtle attempt to make people turn to the emptiness and silence left when the video wass removed, instead of the words he claimed to be Absolute Truth in the video

Babies are joy and love. Pure souls. Baby Hitler was not evil

I am one with Dodo

Im one with the person, love that guy.

Yes the thing is by pushing nonduality as truth it creates duality between it and nonduality. One says nonduality is true, duality is not true. But hey, this is a duality right there! So they both true and neither true or its not absolute nonduality hehe Real nonduality should have enough space within itself to also include Duality, i think it is happening, we call it life 😀 has good and bad sides to it I guess!

But the singularity has expanded, we call it the big bang, right? I get some say the big bang is right now, but it seems like there was an initial more dense singularity that has expanded into multiplicity, as in this creation, it makes sense to me... like a dot becoming a sphere made of infinite amount of dots, like next dimension representation of a dot.

My two cents, i believe one thing many teachers say is the Truth cannot be said in words. If I believe that, then any time someone presents the Truth in word, I can play the contrarian, as the thorn that removes the thorn stuck in your teeth. Then better not stick the new thorn in your teeth after you remove the old one, they say!

I'll double down, in dreams we cant draw parallels with reality. In dream at night absolutely all communication doesn't happen in words, it happens telepathically, because its part of your subconscious mind speaking with you, not other minds, your subconscious part of the mind, as you uncover it with the light of awareness. In awake reality we communicate through moving our mouth, creating sounds. We can create a screeching noise or any noise we like, but we cant telepathically communicate with others because they are not us. Like now, I have to type this to you for you to know it, i cant telepathically feed it into you, like it would happen if it was a dream.

I get what you mean, its all the Emptinness, the silence, appearing as noise / somethingness, but its not just, because there is a qualitative difference between being able to hear and not, or being able to see and not. Seems like the waking dream Does include necessariy duality for it to operate. A payer, a payee. An attacker, a victim. A good guy, a bad guy. From outside the lense of spacetime non of these are real, but within this book/story/movie/wakingdream they are real, just like the street would be real for a GTA character if they were sentient, despite the streets not being real to their creator, but just pixels. The character that the creator plays still is a creation as much as the streets and house

Think can say many things and still Ramana would be right about Silence tho as the highest truth in words. Leo need to post hour long video where he just sits and does nothing, that would be a banger. Like not even meditating, like being focused, just sitting there, being. Hehe

If you say there is only God, you are creating a singularity. That's not it either Diversity in Oneness. We are separate and connected, we live in the same reality and there is no other reality. You dont know what I had for breakfast, I dont know what you had for breakfast. And its best it stays that way.

I love Rupert Spira, but not with him on this. I can use his argument against him, he is limiting God to not being able to create other beings. God is limited to being alone forever, as if! A king is not a king without a kingdom to rule, a God is not a God without its creations. The thing I point to when I say I in everyday speech is a creation which has a beginning and an end. I need to go pee, not God.

Its the same in normal chess, black usually has to react to what white is doing... in this version thr centrr is balanced. First movrt advantage removed. You would give white thr first move, but not give black a premove before the game? Thats selfish and white supremacist *joking xD* All the weaknesses you mentioned for black are there for white also, if the opening is mirrored, and black has this beautiful g6 knight to attack with. Black not gonna just sit there and take it, it can make threats. I played so many games and thr variant feels amazing. Evaluation bar starts from exact even and then tbe best man wins. This is just a patch I would do, a new expansion, if I was the owner of Chess. Giving black a premove such that the game is fully balanced from beginning 👌

Its not the only best move, all 3 top moves have the same 0.00 eval. Just a little variety. What's wrong with h4, why red flag? Because you're conditioned to have that white advantage and snap the center. In chess 960 variant there are many positions where h4 is best first move. Why not in this variant? The idea behind h4 h5 is to try to dislodge the knight from g6 which is helping black with the center and try to turn it from an asset into a liability. To me this just adds more strategic depth to the game. Why not just play me and see how it feels. Here's the link. https://www.chess.com/daily/seek/1058693149

I completely disagree. From g6 the knight is immediately controlling the center without moving! Its precisely what helps black in the fight for the center. It's the engine that says its completely even, not that it looks even. Full 0.00s with the 3 top moves and responses. If you set up normally the evaluation is +0.2 for white where 1 is a pawn. The engine is the most equipped to evaluate the starting position. I know for fact that knight on g6 helps the center, because its attacking it, but also because one of the 3 top moves is h4 by white, completely abandoning the center mission, because now white doesnt have that extra center advantage and the engine goes to challange and dislodge the g6 knight which yes, is a bit awkwardly placed, but slightly better than before. After all we don't want black to have the advantage, but all even.

Thanks Leo (thank the engine)! If you or anyone else want to play this version in correspondence 7 day per move, here's 2 open challenge links: https://www.chess.com/daily/seek/1058693149 https://www.chess.com/daily/seek/1058693365 ----- I know a bit of "theory" as ive analysed the position with engine and know some standard openings like h4 h5 to start challenging the g6 knight immediately. And blacks best defence is to do the same with his h pawn.. Notice the knight helps black control the center, so now white can go for a flank attack on the first move, as black can easier contest the center.

Guys I have balanced chess. You know how there is first mover advantage. Well I thought, what if we make half a move for Black, before the game even starts, we can achieve a position without any advantage for white. Currently its 1/5th of a pawn advantage for white at the start. I opened up engine and tried many "half moves" and if black knight starts on g6 rather than g8 (so in front of the pawn) then we have complete 0s in the starting position. And this setup makes sense because the black knight we moved still iss on the same colour square as before. I went ahead and made a correspondence tournament which is in progress and has been for a long time, now on round 2. The games have been fun, and i feel equally mighty with both colours. https://www.chess.com/tournament/no-white-advantage-tournament-1

Addiction knocking at the door 😀 Not needing psychedelics, but consciousness work. Realizing this is one thing, staying grounded is another. There is a qualitative difference between nightmare and a good dream. If this knowledge gets in your head, the ego corrupts it. You try to be king rather than God. Jesus is the only King God. 🤴 Jesus is the anti nightmare pill. This is what I'm talking about. Enlightened members who can talk about "it" vs non enlightened members who can't. It seems to me the form identity is asuming some form of victory here, and i believe this is a big trap. Spiritual elitism, spiritual ego, etc. Comes down to this, are you the form identity, the member who had a special breakthrough, or are you consciousness, the thing you keep mentioning you have grasped yourself to be during your trips. How come you can't know yourself without taking a drug is my question here. Do you have to make identity around psychedelics to be enlightened and to have a deep conversation on the nature of reality?

The thread is old and it advised starting a new one rather than reviving it. Leo said that only bitcoin is perhaps worth it and even that is a gamble. He put all other coins under th bus, and that is my main disagreement. Bitcoin with its first mover advantage has obviously eaten up the most marketcap out of all, and is considered the main store of value, resembling digital gold. However, there are so many different types of crypto that are designed to do different things, solve problems that old and slow bitcoin cannot solve. In any of those new types of cryptos there are first movers as well. Ethereum is the first mover of smart chain blockchain solutions and it is quickly catching up to bitcoin as the two of them are by far the biggest by marketcap. You can build dapps and smart contracts on the ethereum network which you can't do on bitcoin. There are other types of blockchain such as Oracles, the first mover there is Link and it is seeing some intense gains recently. I am investing currently in Cardano, which is a smart chain like Ethereum and plans to build their own oracle, rather than using others. There are payment blockchains, the ones that are best used for money transfers - they are quick and cheap to transfer, unlike Bitcoin, that would be a horrible idea for money transfers. XRP is the main leader there. There are other types but lets keep it shorter. My point is, bitcoin is bitcoin, but the rest of the market is very intriguing and in my opinion worth the research and eventual investment in the long term. The other point Leo said was not to mix art with investing, but as a guy who has been learning technical analysis for a long time, I can see the chart and patterns within it as art, a mathematical kind of art. The numbers are dancing and if you have an eye for what painting to look at and know how the patterns created behave, you can enjoy some really high reward-low risk setups which someone who doesnt look at chart will miss. Another common similarty between art and charts is that charts are using fibonacci, the golden ratio, which is the same ratio used in the Mona Lisa itself, used by many famous artists, as it makes things more beautiful. The golden ratio is found everywhere in nature too, so by seeing the charts following the golden ratio is to see they are perhaps a natural phenomenon rather than a man made scam manipulated and controlled by scheming individuals who want your money. In conclusion, cryptocurrency is not a scam, it behaves very technically accurate on the charts. It is there to solve a miriad of problems and there are more options than the one Bitcoin to research and invest in. Altcoins are all forms of different vehicles designed for different purpose and without them, crypto is just not useful at all.

Absolutely it doesn't make sense with all the typos! Maybe first master the language and then go about saying "you're God", more believable hehe

Will *we* travel at the speed of light? The we is very important. Brilliant scientist Brian Cox assumes our identity as something which has mass. But hey, the facts are, awareness/consciousness has no mass. So perhaps the simple answer is "yes, we have to travel at the speed of light, because we are massless Consciousness"

Forgive the personal attack, it was not necessary. Just got triggered a bit, because i feel you are not understanding me, and you talk about some darkness that is ultimate, without touching on who knows that darkness. Who or what is aware of that darkness, how is it known in the first place. Can you know it without light of awareness?

On a surface level, you read it, and you replied in an unconstructive way with no substance, just to get an ego win. I know these games all too well. Perhaps you need to stop worshipping darkness. Ying yang symbol shows absoĺute equality between light and dark. Im not here to have a war between light worship and darkness worship. Its really easy to spot where you're going wrong.

You literally had no time to read my comment, you immediately replied, only skimmed, no time to assimilate what is said, to contemplate. This is clear sign you are not here to discuss, not here for Truth, rather you are here to be right. Im not interested in an ego battle, im here to contemplate and invite constructive discussion.

Who knows that darkness that remains? Im talking about the ultimate invisible light of knowing, not light photons. Not talking about light vs dark. You are basically talking out of yo ass, pardon my french 😀 Ever heard of nonduality? You are talking about ying yang as if its 2 separate things, light vs darkness and saying darkness is stronger than light. Ying Yang is a marriage between darkness and light, its absolute love, and this makes it the light of awareness. The one that knows that darkness you speak of, is the light of awareness, you need the light of awareness to know ANYTHING, including that darkness that you appearantly perceive as ultimate.
