Butters

Curious whether of not Donald Trump receives any Karmic Punishment for his behavior. It appears that when a heart-centered individual hurts another person through their actions they receive some sort of Karmic Punishment. Why doesn't this seem to apply to Trump? Either a) karma doesn't exist, it's a fantasy. Therefor karma is a spiritual fantasy, not a system. Or b) karma is a system but is so complex, it works in ways we cannot comprehend. For instance, not through linear time. If the latter, then there must be some consciousness out there who CAN see the Karmic concewuences happening right now.

This is indeed annoying. Never had this issue on Pornhub.

This guy does wonderful NLP and energy work seminars

Nobody here talking about 3IAtlas is crazy.

It's nice to be more productive in this way. The main problem is where he says you won't lose your keys anymore because the camera is always on the you can simply ask the glasses. That's a problem, because the part of the brain that remembers where you left your keys will stop functioning. As a result you'll probably lose your keys more often. After some time you won't be able to function without the glasses. If you think Ai makes people not think for themselves, glasses are worse.

I've now watched 3 full hours of this video, it's quite good. I think I had this insight: I am equal to Hitler, but of course I see myself as much better. I view myself as the ideal self, but this is an illusion that can only be broken by caring about truth. In the absolute, my entire way of being is equal to Hitler. Me seeing myself as better than Hitler is the whole problem. Is this a good way of looking at it you think?

If a billionaire, say Warren Buffet, gives all his money to charity, is he more aligned with truth than the billionaire who gives it to his kids? After all, social justice (as a value) is not truth you said.

I don't follow the news much but watching it often makes me feel bad. Is that denying truth or is that an intelligent move? Let's say that me not watching the Gaza news is denial, and someone who does calls me ignorant. That's fine. But does that person follow the Sudan news? If not, why not? It's at least the same level of atrocious. Selfishly stepping on people's heads to get a promotion is selfish and untruthful, but stepping on an ant is fine. Why? What if I capture and stir-fry ants for my enjoyment? You think about this long enough and you end up with some relativism discussion. I don't think real life is as black and white as the examples make it out to be. Things are incredibly nuanced when it comes to human behavior.

Confusing episode. First Leo says that reality is truth, and your perception is part of truth, and depending on your awareness it's more aligned with truth. So does this mean that if I own a business that does well I am closer to truth than somebody who just fantasizes about business? Since my truth aligns more with objective reality, the answer should be yes but this or similar examples are never addressed. The video gives examples of Elon Musk and Donald Trump assuming everyone follows the news and politics closely. I don't so these things barely registered for me, should have included more examples and explanations here, especially since you've said in the past that Trump will be forgotten about in 25 years and your videos should be evergreen. I'll watch the rest later. The examples are great, but lots of the political stuff I've already read on the blog and it's quite obvious by now. There is no difference between this material and the survival stuff. It all boils down to you creating separation between self and other, which is false. After some years of this work this is obvious.

This sort of thing: Obviously chatgpt doesn't love food, so it's technically lying, but I've gotten used to AI having this 'empathy'. It works well to keep the conversation going. I feel like we're in this strange phase where it's half intelligent, half dumb hallucination machine. Obviously there's no "I" that I'm talking to as it's just generative text, but it's more about how it feels for the user. Does it bother you?

@Leo Gura I tried with my pillow but didn't really do anything for me. Does it help to imagine something else in its stead? I tried turning the pillow into a cat, which also didn't work.

So we're forced to think for ourselves now? Damn.

Yet I'm quite happy with YouTube's recommendation algorithm for regular longform videos. I'm also one of the few who still use the subscriptions tab.

@Leo Gura if you feed someone psychedelics and hypnotize them into believing they're a dinosaur, is there a chance that their normal waking reality becomes that of an actual dinosaur? Meaning while not on any chemicals, 24 hour waking consciousness?

So no human can permanently transcend their human-ness? If all of reality is happening in this moment right now then theoretically you should be able to. I thought it was consciousness rendering the human, not human rendering consciousness? So, I am in this partition of consciousness that is human?

I've seen ads for these. Aren't you concerned about the long term effects, or any potential cognitive decline? I'm currently still building my Shopify store selling t-shirts.

@Natasha Tori Maru I crave that feminine spirituality in my life. I would love to go to some hippie festival or retreat of sorts. At the same time I can't help but notice how finite and pointless such things are. Maybe someday.

@Leo Gura can you love the tablespoon in jail? Can you love Trump as much as the tablespoon? What if the tablespoon is a narcissistic parent?

Alternatively, start an unrelated business, watch your own internal world like a hawk, and share your findings with the world now that you're financially independent. That way your YouTube channel will be less corrupted, as you're not financially dependent on views.

Most people couldn't even handle being the most popular person in their school or town, or any level of fame. Rogan is literally the most popular podcaster in the world. Simply putting him away as a "supplement grifter" is misleading, as he's done something so difficult almost nobody can. This kind of language is populist in nature.

Just going over all your replies here with ChatGPT, you seem quite wrong for most of these tbh. 1️⃣ IQ differences Study: Bouchard et al. (1990) — Minnesota Study of Twins Reared Apart. Finding: Identical twins raised apart had IQ correlations of ~0.7. That’s high, but not 1.0. This means genetics strongly influences IQ, but environment and random factors account for notable variation — differences of 10+ IQ points between twins are common. Example: One twin might score 115, the other 105. 2️⃣ Cancer discordance Study: Lichtenstein et al. (2000) — Swedish, Danish, and Finnish twin registries (large-scale study). Finding: Many identical twin pairs where one twin developed cancer and the other did not, including breast, prostate, and colorectal cancers. Key stat: In breast cancer, concordance rate for identical twins was only ~20%, meaning in most cases one twin got cancer while the other did not — despite shared genes. 3️⃣ Obesity and metabolic disease Study: Stunkard et al. (1990) — New England Journal of Medicine. Finding: Identical twins show high concordance for body mass index (BMI), but lifestyle factors (especially diet and exercise) can still drive differences. They found some pairs where one twin was obese, the other not. 4️⃣ Political ideology Study: Alford et al. (2005), Behavioral Genetics of Political Attitudes. Finding: Identical twins have greater similarity in political ideology than fraternal twins, but environment still plays a large role — and identical twins can fall on opposite ends of the political spectrum. 📚 Links to key studies Here are references where you can review the data yourself: ➡ IQ and twins reared apart Bouchard, T.J.

ChatGPT is highly accurate at doing ancient Chinese face reading (Mian Xiang).

That's ladyboyphobic. What's the difference between a large clitoris and a micropenis on a ladyboy? I admit that the ones in the documentary bragging about their giant cocks was offputting, which made it all the more odd that the guys dating them call themselves straight. The final giveaway was the dude saying "I'm top, she's bottom". Using that terminology is pretty gay tbh.

I just got to watching this

The Incendiary Teacher / Occult Architect: Essence: He doesn’t just teach. He provokes, ignites, re-codes. He builds systems of knowledge, often weird, intense, or unpopular—and delivers them with force. Traits: Fire-Metal dominant: speaks sharply, reveals truth through language, often with edge or charisma Wants transformation, not just harmony More confrontational: will challenge what’s comfortable Creates mental architecture: systems, language frameworks, maps Performs to reveal—knows the performance is part of the awakening Shadow = self-righteousness, manipulation, or elitism Modern Examples: Leo Gura, Terence McKenna, Aleister Crowley (early phase), or even Gurdjieff The Sage: Essence: The Sage does not build new systems—he interprets what is timeless, decodes the now through wisdom, and holds space rather than ignite fire. Traits: Earth-Water dominant: calm, observant, steady, deeply reflective Wants integration and understanding More receptive: listens deeply before speaking Guides through presence more than content Lives the teaching silently, often respected even when not speaking Shadow = withdrawal, bitterness, or hoarding wisdom Modern Examples: Krishnamurti, Ram Dass (late life), or Jungian-era Carl Jung
