@OceanJjb I listen to Mooji all the time. There's not a single video of his that I didn't find helpful. His teachings are very insightful and peaceful, they help restore that inner balance once again. I don't think completely eliminating ego is necessary. You can still live and enjoy life, while always being aware of what your true nature is. That's where self-actualization and enlightenment work can go hand-in-hand. Trying to neglect one or the other can result in very unbalanced life. Here's a simple and fun presentation on enlightenment, and I like his humor

He became aware of what's going on in his mind by doing a self-inquiry when his depression and anxiety took on a new high. "I cannot live with myself any longer", he kept saying. "Who is 'I' and who is 'myself'? Are there two?" Then the shift in consciousness happened. He realized that the mind-created sense of self (ego) was an illusion observed by his true self (awareness).

@Nomad @Emerald Wilkins @Kelley White @MartineF @Amplituda @Evilwave Heddy @Bobert@Rasmus @Saarah Yes, we should all get together and petition for a free Ultimate Life Course for@Abhijeet Singh !

Both. The pun was unintended

@Nomad Omega-3 is good for healthy thinking brains

Making fried tuna stakes for dinner tonight. You like fish?

@Nomad Constructive criticism is always welcome

You're too nice to play the devil role @abrakamowse

Should we vote now?

He was. I've kind of outgrown his teachings, though, and am ready for some 'meat'.

Those are just silly labels for post score. I made a joke awhile ago that once you reach a certain amount of reputation dots, you can be considered enlightened

@Nomad

@Nomad Cool, I will

@Nomad We're all on the forum to share and learn, not judge each other's intellectual abilities. I would like to learn from you and others about the integral.

@Nomad I'm still waiting for your integral thread

No, you're just being paranoid

@Nomad I learn as I go, one step at a time What integral teachers/ material do you advice for me and others on here? Why don't you start a thread, so we all can learn?

Fresh grapefruit juice, ginger, and raw unfiltered apple cider vinegar in water are great for that.

@Nomad I do integrate also. Which resources/ teachers do you listen to? I like to listen to Ken Wilber.

@Nomad What are the signs of a cult that are present in Actualized.org? I agree that Leo's approach is radical, but call it a cult? Cult members are brainwashed into becoming psychologically DEPENDENT on the leader/ cult system. What Leo encourages us to do here is to be INDEPENDENT thinkers. I doubt many on here would follow him to become yogis, but many will go out to realize their potential and help make this world a more conscious place to be.

Man's brain is wired differently from that of female. Their left hemisphere (logic, abstract thinking, etc) is more dominant than the right hemisphere responsible for emotions, communication, etc. We process thinking differently. It's not that he doesn't want to do these things, he just biologically is not equipped to do emotions like us, women. The good thing is that he is willing to broaden his understanding of how you as a woman feel. Huge credit to him for trying. Working with/ around younger people also makes him feel more alive. You'll understand this once you hit 65 yourself Men can also naturally compartmentilize. This is actually a pretty handy mechanism to keep all the stuff in your brain more organized. Women, on the other hand, has a tendency to put all their eggs in one basket, so to speak. If one thing doesn't goes well, everything doesn't go well. Which is most of the time not the case. Once you start learning about enlightenment, you'll find out that reality is actually quite neutral and everything is just the way it is, neither good or bad. It's our ego that interprets it one way or the other. Have you watched any of Leo's Enlightenment videos yet?

I just keep it quiet and do my thing. Yes, it feels lonely at times, but it's all part of the Hero's journey.

Yes, I'm his person
