Why is the consciousness community, especially here, not at the forefront of this? I want a video from Leo on this topic and how we can tackle it.

Love does not need to be said out loud. Sadhguru doesn't need to know that Love is the substance of all things, because Love is the substance of all things. Sadhguru can carry more Love and amplify more love than all of us. He can raise consciousness because he is embodying Love, not because he is talking about it. There is no need for him to use language to speak the words of what existence is and is not. His presence eminates love. The difference between Leo and Sadhguru is the difference between an exploer and a master. The explorer will go and venture forth into the depths, but he will not be able to carry much of what he discovered when he comes home. When he comes home, his only way of communicating what he has seen is through words. The master does not venture anymore, but his very being is adjusted to eminate Love. He has no need for language, because he is the walking Love. He is not carrying Love back home, he is the Love coming back home. The explorer can show us where to go, but he cannot show us what Love is. The master can show even the greatest fool what Love is without showing them anything at all. The explorer is a seeker who is selfish in his goal. He still sees seperation between himself and all other things. This is why he feels he must continue exploring. It is because he does not realize he has already explored all things. There is still a seperation, a selfishness, within his being. As long as seperation exist, there can be no peacefulness. The masters know that Love is all there is, nothing left to do but giving more Love. Seeking love becomes obsolete when you are the one who is the giver of Love. There is no reaching higher and higher states of consciousness, because all states of consciousness already are. They do not need to be reached. There is a time when the explorer dies and the master is born. Giving up the seeking of Love to the pure emanation of Love. The difference between Leo and Christ, Buddha or Sadhguru is not due to a difference of personality, but due to the difference of the maturity of their Soul. This has nothing to do with depth of realization. The master has a clear intuition of his inevitable fate. This is why he can celebrate each and every moment of Life. He does not need to rush to Godhood, because he knows Godhood is already achieved. Whether he knows this or not is irrelevant, he can feel it in his Soul. There is no dick measuring contest of who is more or less conscious of what, because the only dick to measure is his own. The explorer will say understanding (another word for exploration) is essential to Love. But this is false. Love requires no understanding whatsoever. Love can exist within the ant which knows nothing about the world at all. Love gives rise to Understanding, not the other way around.

The new Goodness video is a good example of this. Look how he is talking about a temporary realization, and how he is coming to us trying to explain to us that realization. That is a fascet of the explorer. Explanation can be used by the master aswell, but that is secondary. The master can embody Goodness, anyone who is not blind will be able to see the Goodness coming from the master. That is what makes them so attractive to the moths. To the explorer it's a realization, not a way of being. He does not live in Africa, he is there temporarily. He is not an african. But if he spends enough time within Africa, one day he might become one, he might become part of Africa, rather than just a visitor.

Precisely, the explorer is the master who has not yet realized that he is. What a rude awakening that is. What is more important is that the masters understood that there is no need to even realize that he is the master in the first place. Realization is unimportant. Thus existence was born. The ant, the tree, the ocean and the whale. The master who has no need for Realizations of Truth, because Truth is Truth whether realized or not. No desire for the Unseen to be seen. Yet the Unseen eminates through all things, which is why it will always lure the moths to their own death.

The book is excellent, should be on Leo's booklist, I don't know if he has read it. It's a paradigm adding book.

Quote from 2001.

I don't think nuclear weapons are any pressing threat at all. Infact, nuclear weapons are what has kept peace around the world for almost a century now. Global warming is an issue, but it is not more pressing than social media because social media is what directly hinders us from doing something about global warming (look at the fact that Trump was elected for example). Pressing means that they need to be solved as quickly as possible, and because social media makes it more and more difficult to have any coherent progessive action within a democracy it is by far the most important issue we can currently address.

Can you love the Rancor Leo? Think about how mistreated he was, enslaved and kept in a small enviroment for his entire life. He was starving to death and was just trying to survive, yet Luke showed no compassion and murdered him at the first chance he got.

I am not sure why you are quoting me I was agreeing with you.

This is why the Stage Orange paradigm simply isn't enough. The problems are too complex to be solved via a simple analysis akin to finding fault only in direct harm. Our civilizations, whether it is climate change or these social issues, faces these problems precisely because we do not look at the wider consequences of our actions. We are too myopic in the way we issue blame and fault to others. Reality doesn't care whether Zuckerberg is at fault or not. Reality does not care about whether he is being evil. Reality simply shows you what is. Social media is causing huge harm to society, and it will continue to do so until we adopt further responsibility. It's not enough to not cause obvious evil, our modern society is so complex that we must take responsibility for the unintentional harm we are causing by our way of survival. You can blame a person for anything, including selling Harry Potter shirts. It all depends on how wide your circle of compassion is.

Interesting that you agree on that with the Trump supporters, should make you think.

But why would Murdoch call AZ if he wasn't absolutely certain it was a win for Biden? It's not like these decisions are made on intuition, there is clear data backing it all up, no? Isn't it the same situation as back with Obama when Ohio was called?

I don't understand, isn't Biden expected to win NEV anyways? PA and GA are just extra, no?

Blame social media, the same is happening here in europe.

Even Pence has enough brains to realize this which is why he backpeddled right after Trump gave his speech.

Mail-in ballots are unsafe therefore Biden has an advantage? Because Trump is an angel and wouldn't abuse his power as the sitting president to take advantage of this unsafeties.

Conservatives undermining democracy by claiming voter fraud. Love how these people have no principles at all.

Would be funny to test what would happen if there was a "Badge of Consciousness" in this forum to distinguish low consciousness people from higher consciousness ones. I feel like the quality of the members of this forum the past two years or so have degraded significantly.

Biden won pretty much, correct?

Hearing that it's looking much better for Trump at the moment than the polls projected, much like last election.

I heard someone say that Rep Voters don't vote by mail so they are lagging behind giving an appearing of Dems winning, but I have no idea if that's a thing or if it's relevant. How long do you guys think will it take for the announcement to happen?

Some simple points many people here seem to have difficulty grasping. Even the commentators in the video seem to have a better grasp of this than some people in here who claim to meditate and do self-inquiry work. Quote: I have tried to point this out to many people in here, who are doing that very same thing. This is vital to get a grasp on even outside of the topic that is being discussed in the video. As conscious individuals we must develope a good sense of when we are being biased. This is why such a challenging topic is so excellent to demonstrate this phenomenon. Sometimes we need to go back to the lower stages and learn that which we have skipped to learn, so that our development can be well-rounded. For the vast majority of people in here the greatest oppurtunity for growth is to learn to integrate the lower stages, rather than looking at ideals that can only be achieved when these "lower-level aspects" have been integrated in the first place.

Extending your compassion to those beings you are consuming will be a far greater reward than any pleasure or convinience you could experience.
