There is no difference. Sitted meditation is just being conscious/mindful for a definite period of time without distractions. Mindfullness throughout the day is being conscious/mindful during everyday life activities. The first one helps the second to be more consistent (IF you try to practice the second). The second is what you're really striving towards. (And that's why many people can still be inconscious even with 20 years of meditation) What you really want is to be conscious all the time, which is not enlightenment, and is not a pipe dream NOT having a blank mind with no thoughts at all, that's a misconception of what being conscious means. Being conscious just means being conscious, It has nothing to do with having a blank mind. It just means having a distance from your thoughts and emotions That's all what it means. -

You need both. Seated meditation will boost your capacity to stay conscious throughout the day. Mindfullness during the day (24/24) will make you capable of having a stable consciousness level on every moment of your life. The biggest mistake one can do is to neglect one for the other. No chance in hell you'll finally be free of your crazy mind if you don't do both consistently. -

It's the difference between talking about sex when you're a virgin And having sex for the first time as a virgin Except this is way better.

At the same time you can use this as an excuse to go deeper into lust too Instead of going in the abstinence route when you could already do it. We use everything in our power to stay miserable, this is amazing !

I think it depends on people mindset and cognitive evolution. Easier to transcend when you're conscious Almost impossible if you're not, you need to suffer first to be disgusted enough about to be willing to grow. Leo only says that because he knows that the only way for this guy to stop caring that much about sex is to see that it doesn't work first. Problem is, without the conceptual knowledge that it won't work, plus a little bit of awareness to feel it when you do that activity People tend to get stuck for a very long time, if not for life. It's a very thin line to surf on.

Leo those days -
If you want to have a taste of what Leo talks about in this video. Learn how to have lucid dreams. It's exactly like this, at least it was for me. Now it's just a memory when you're "here", so in a sense Lucid dreaming IS NOT enlightenment, because right now it's just a though in our minds. Nothing you could ever think of, feel or experience is Enlightenment Except Enlightenment, which will not be an experience, unless it becomes a memory when you become unconscious again (which of course is just an illusion).
