  1. I found this technique recently and it seems to do some real changes to the body and person. I am willing to do so that, but I wanted to ask you, •Does anyone practice this? •Are there any side effects?(From personal experience) •Any tips in applying it?
  2. There is this app called blinkist. It is about focused ideas from self development books. I was wondering if any of you guys use it and if it has the value necessary, because you have to purchase to fully use it.
  3. Hello guys; I want to accomplish a lot in this new year and the years to follow. I have set some things that i am looking towards to achieve (example, 10 pages per day; 30 min of meditation) , but, my problem is that i do not really know how to planify all this in order to be as grwoful as i want it to be. For example, i want to improve to one hour of meditation. Any advice? I am trying to cut the shit as much as possible but right now i am thinking about how to right some schedule for the year or something like it.
  4. I've discovered this recently and wanted to ask if any of you apply it and what are the benefits that you feel?
  5. Hello. I've started meditating habitually a week ago. I am meditating in the sun, on a block of flats with 4 floors. I entry there without anyone knowing (the people who live there) and I start to meditate. I prefer that place because it's outside, it's in the sun and nobody disturbs me. When I meditate, I'm doing the mindfulness technique, but before it, it's the concentration. I integrate for 10 minutes. When I do so, i close my eyes. After like 5, 7 minutes, i feel like someone i staring at me. (To get to the roof there is only one ladder, and it's a bit noisy, so i would hear if anyone climbs it.) I get distracted by this "presence" and I force myself not to open eyes. After a few seconds, that look like infinity, i get afraid because that one 'presence' could hurt me and/or kill me. So I open my eyes, i like around, and there is nothing. It is exactly how it was before closing my eyes. Now i got distracted and i cannot go so deep with my meditation (as i could've gone else) The first things that pops in my head is the boogey man, the one I raised with. Or some gispyes(the presence that I see it's more like a black shadow) What I think i know for sure it's the fact that is a creation of my mind. But what I don't know is how to tell my mind to stop going nuts or how to convince it that there is nothing there. Even when I say to myself "It is nothing out there, all is in your mind" I get so scared automatically. But when I fall to this distraction and open my eyes, everything seems right for a while. I would appreciate very much if you could tell me how to fix this and what is this. (Or if there is something to fix,...)
  6. I am applying this, even though as a begginer. You may want to consider how much you look at it though. There are online some tutorials
  7. While gatering information, do something. Starting a meditation habbit and working on your work schedule will improve the ratio and the quality of information that you will use. You can start anywhere, but i'd tell you to start learning about mindfulness, then go for the minfulness meditation. If you find it difficult, there are many other meditation techniques. Others videos that i'd reccomend to watch: Always take notes and apply, and remeber, you are on the good path.
  8. Leo's last video brought a new concept to the definition of what learning is. I don't necessarily take it for granted, i want to test it out for myself. I understand how it could work with a life-changing book or a seminar or a Leo video or any of these. But how do I Apply this at school? I was thinking about learning(memorizing) stuff then I could do learning(behaviour change) check. Any suggestions?
  9. Hello, for several reasons I couldn't buy the physical versions of some books from Leo's list and I got them on my phone instead. What app do you recommend me to read on, taking in count that I want to highlight some stuff while reading. (Without Amazon kindle)
  10. Hello, "I" have just finished reading neti-neti meditation book and I wanted to ask you if is such an effective technique compared to others("i"don't know others techniques because 'i' am kind of new to enlightment thing.)and if could start this one until i learn others. You can also tell me about your thoughts are about the book. I love it how it's short and how it gets straight to the "point".
  11. I knew about the vid, but never had the balls to really watch it. I will watch it.
  12. I think that there is a God, but I'm not sure
  13. I'd do it just right now but I am attached to the fear of not going to heaven because I can deny the existence of God. (I was raised in a very faithful social conditioning from when I was little) how can I come at peace with the though of quiting religious life? When you say psychedelics you reffer to 5 meo dmt or to test more of them? How do I use them to my advantage and don't let them get me in a state of a drug just how it would get a drug addict? Where did you learn your self inquiry method from?
  14. Hello, for several reasons I couldn't buy the physical versions of some books from Leo's list and I got them on my phone instead. What app do you recommend me to read on, taking in count that I want to highlight some stuff while reading. (Without Amazon kindle)
  15. Thank you, i will ask you further if I find others questions
  16. How do you feel that warmth? And how do you know that you're going to experience the same warmth in the moment that you will die?
  17. It's not about the video itself, but the things you get from it. You may get a bit if motivation to start your own meditation retreat, or you may watch as a movie and get nothing from it. I mean, it's nice to watch it, but, as Leo says, you have to do something! Start right now!
  18. Can I practice concentration on affirmations? Can I get both benefits from affirmations and concentration? Or affirmations have just to repet, without really being aware of what we say to ourself?
  19. Lol so evident
  20. @MHarris there is no right or wrong age. Is about if the man has already reached his higher self or made his dream come true. You can live by a paradigm, but if you marry, you will have to change it, because you need to focus on superficial desires of the wife and to make those ture, to make her superficial happy. Or even worst, YOU will fall into that trap. And why would you get married if you are not enlightenment anyway? You will live life with no dream come true. And pls don't tell me that your dream is to get married. That is another superficial desire that the inferior counciness, the inferior you pushes so it can desolve the higher self and let your ego free. Choose wisely m8. And remember, the age is just a number. You are the real one who determines how old are you.
  21. Hello. I've been watching Leo now for 2 years at least. I love listening to him. I agree with what he says. But, though I did some personal development, like 1 month meditating, reading, now, I feel like they are kind of superficial. I meat Leo talks about deep things. But what I ask is how can I start REALLY get started into Self actualization? What can I do so I would be really growing? (My emotions at the moment feel that I didn't self actualized, though I did some work) I want my higher self to win the fight. I want my lower self to go away. Thank you.

  23. I have a problem that keeps me back from making a meditation habbit. I tried several times but this stopped my combo. I meditate before I go to bed, at 11-12pm. The next morning, I wish that I am up at 7 so I won't be late at school and miss the bus. Anyway, my problem is that when I go to meditate, I am very very tired. So, I say to miself that I should rest a bit (5 minutes or so) than go to meditate. Well, I did so and fell asleep. The next day, I said to myself that I should stay only 3 minutes, not to fall asleep. I doubled the time, and when the alarm came, I didn't hear it. And sometimes, when I get to meditate, when I force myself to do it, without resting before,I fell asleep when meditating (with the eyes closed, when doing the mindfulness meditation) How do i overcome this? I also tried to fall asleep faster, and to wake up at 4:30 am to meditate, but that didn't work either. What do I have to do?
  24. This one is pretty similar. https://www.youtube.com/shared?ci=DAf-5mg9CkQ @OBEleri would have the same thought as you about that. Wind power and he did it. It may be, but there is still the possibility of this shit being real. It would be interesting to see him moving other stuff, then leaves. I don't accept this as being fake because I read somewhere that the 3rd eye is extremely powerfull if opened and mastered.(also dangerous)(of course, you have to open all chakras, but focus on the 3rd eye) https://www.youtube.com/shared?ci=eskIrptueH0 this is another video with the chi power, of course, you may say it's a movie but it could be real. In Asia(I don't know where) where people are learnth how to do these stuff. I tend to think that these powers come if you are in a true balance with your body. But I didn't open my 3rd eye, so I don't know personally. I just want to hear other's opinions and to get a deeper understanding of these, or an understanding at all! Now is this, enlightenment, personal development, astral realm, I don't where and how to start from! I also want to hear other's opinions Other links that made me look forward to get knowledge about chi: https://www.youtube.com/shared?ci=EGPpOYYHR-E - i assume there might be persons with super-human abilities, but I don't think this would be the case. What do you think? https://www.youtube.com/shared?ci=sZFEiZ1Cs0M --- Another demonstration of chi power. https://www.youtube.com/shared?ci=vp5ZfEPT5a0 --- this one is special Your opinion?
