@Leo Gura If Trump becomes president he’ll just pardon them all. -
Thank you Leo!

@Leo Gura Conservative media isn’t brainwashing anybody. They are just telling their viewers what they want to hear. -
I recently saw a discussion between McKenna and Ram Dass. This really is a discussion between head (McKenna) and heart (Ram Dass)

@MsNobody Why don’t you collaborate with Leo on the psychedelics course? I think he can use your energy.

Tribalism is a bigger problem in Africa than corruption. -

You can understand it with the 16 personalities theory. Your type is INTP, so your hero is Ti, or Introverted Truth. -

This story is in the “Fun” section. ? -
We need to know how Leo damaged his body so we don’t do the same.

@Leo Gura @zurew @Israfil It is imperative to recognise the grave dangers posed by addictive substances. Such drugs should not be readily accessible to the general populace. By making the acquisition of these drugs a stringent and complex process, we can ensure that only those with a determined and perhaps legitimate need have the ability to obtain them. This approach stands as a necessary measure to safeguard society from the harms of addiction. -

Portugal doesn’t sell cocaine at the pharmacy. -

He himself was poor and an orphan, so it makes sense that he gives extra emphasis to these people in the Quran. What does usury have to do with spirituality? As for modest clothing, this was all pre-Islamic. He didn’t invent the hijab, he simply adopted it from his society. By the way, the hijab is not spiritual. As for acting modestly, it really just is sexual allergy. Nothing spiritual to it. He was spiritual in the sense that he was channelling Gabriel (just like Neale Donald Walsch channels God). But to claim that he knew anything about enlightenment or awakening is just deceiving yourself. He had nothing to do with the spirituality of Buddhism. -

@Leo Gura The assertion that the drug war has been a failure is not accurate. The goal of this effort is not the wholesale eradication of drug use, an aim that is unattainable. Instead, the focus is on containment, moderation, and regulation. Evidence supports that these objectives have been largely achieved, as the usage rates of the most dangerous and addictive substances have been kept at manageable levels. Consider what would likely transpire if these drugs were suddenly made legal and readily available to the general public. A historical example that illustrates the potential peril of this approach can be found in China during the 19th century. At that time, the British trade in opium had catastrophic consequences for Chinese society. Addiction became so rampant that it wreaked havoc on the economy, with vast sums of money squandered on the drug. This addiction crisis led to two actual opium wars, where the Chinese fought desperately to compel the British to halt the opium trade within their borders. Ironically, while opium was being traded so freely in China, it was illegal and punishable by death in Britain itself. The aftermath of this period was devastating; it took a full century for China to recover from the mass addiction and rebuild its shattered economy. This episode serves as a sobering testament to the importance of maintaining a strong stance against addictive drugs. Therefore, while it may be tempting to label the modern drug war as a failure, it is essential to weigh the potential risks of a more permissive approach. The lessons of history serve as a powerful warning, guiding us towards the continued necessity of keeping addictive drugs illegal. By doing so, we may avoid repeating the tragic mistakes of the past. -

@RedLine Waking Up is not the same as Cleaning Up or Growing Up. They are distinct paths. -

A LOT MORE people would become addicted to cocaine. If you think there’s an addiction problem now, wait till you see half the country addicted to it. The entire country will come to a standstill. -

@Leo Gura I think selling cocaine at the pharmacy is a terrible idea. -

I agree that Buddhism is superior to other religions, in terms of higher consciousness. There’s no need to pretend that all religions are equal: they’re not. -
Why?

But you can’t ignore the increasing number of women that are entering what used to be male fields. Even in philosophy, every year the percentage of women studying it in college just increases. How do you explain that? -
