  1. Dude I am German, as American Military kid for me the perspective and perversion of Germans is so obvious, I am glad this country changed. Dude I find Hitler funny, yet it's a sheer outcry of lack of power, dude I had discussions with brain deads, about Hitler's at brithday parties as it's oh so funny. I visited war museums also in other countries. I am glad they fking hacked Nazi codes. I find it amazing that people online still like it and indulge in the collective pain of this b.s. Hitler is not stupid, obviously yet he is one of the most perverted and disgusting humans that lived and walked on planet earth. It's also sheer cowardice they let this coward get to power and manipulate with propaganda, at least give me a history lesson worthy to talk about. Instead of acting with authority 0 wisdom and knowledge. Like do you love Trump also? It's a human tragedy I get the admiration part. He is a good speaker, if you want to give me a good history beating do it. He spoke with no-self who does this? This is direct Intel..but this people will die sooner and or later... I also meet a kid from a Nazi family. That is why I mean twisted love it's utterly regressive.
  2. I don't have much time on this timer, I does not matter I lived in China, yes it might be some traditional - rational type of organisation, if you consider it's true essence there simply is buddhist philosophy as soon as more rational and abstractive thought is introduced and meta-thinking. True balance is recognizing that the west is way ahead currently, and is now catching up spiritualy. Yes, for sure it can be a religion there. The merit idea I get it I lived in China, it's pure SD orange though. I have friend from Thailand who did retreats in an organisation from there, and who is an A.I researcher. I get where you are coming from, I doubt it's beyond purple -> orange, for simplicities sake. No need to run a 2h long analysis. Wilber did enough here, and there is close to 0 view from east to west. With that level of depth. It was also from Wikipedia! Not google.. .we get to the same conclusions with b.s talking and re-framing to fit the ego, no need I like Buddhism, mostly as a philosophy and a "beign thing" to be explored. I know LionsRoar, I appreciate the share! There are also various questions I have about west, east, south and north... So yeah.
  3. From any true philosophers standpoint, the shadow is endless in that sense unconsciouness, there never is full completion there is always something higher and non-integrated. There is buddhist philosophy with on Google Search, I mean I can even ask ChatGpt... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Buddhist_philosophy Healing is neccessary, yet it's endless. The higher you go the more complex it will be. Even in these high states there is unconsciouness. Unconsciouness never ends... similar to consciouness it's similar when you contempalte regressive infinity...as a reconstruction of self and world so to speak. This sounds like emotional mastery 101, like Marc Aurel and some stoic type of philosophy, which I enjoy it's humbling, also gave me access to some consciouness depth connection. There is 100% budhist philosophy, with deep philosophical questions, many have even been scared of it like Freud. What is correct and a critique from western intellectuals like Wilber is that Buddhist don't integrate the unconsciouness very much and that this is an achievement of western psychology mostly, even though I bet there are eastern ways and methods to, to integrate the unconsciouness, shadow, trauma etc. To call buddhism a religion is not very fair, in it's totality.
  4. To add in some sense it is nice that healthy feminity keeps toxic masculinity at bay, and gives real man a chance. Beign against an approach during day time if it's not sleazy sounds to me super regressive, just saying no under social protection (obviously depends on area) is super easy for the women. I made myself a female profile for one day, just a cute model, like it's insane how much bombardment a women can get in a single minute, and these approaches were so bad. I could even understand toxic women in a sense, (one liked me even) it's just better to learn from relationships and to grow and integrate. In a sense it's good that no everyone does day&night game imagine that would be like having an online-profile of a women and receiveing 1000+ messages a day if you are highly attractive and valueable. In a survival type of world. It's legit insane, I had to laugh how easy and how difficult it is to meet needs as a women. Like these approaches are to funny, I can understand why many women enjoy deep female friendships, as this serves as a good protection layer. Anyway, I hope this serves as some perspective and anti-demonization, I mean otherwise everything regardless if hierachical or network oriented, would end up in a scheme that is ranking oriented. Instead of more open and holistic and compatible. Like a nice chill social gathering, where there are enough people and it's evident that non-judgement and getting to know each other is important, like having a good host at a house party, family gathering etc. At best compatible, integrative, and synthesis oriented. Having similar visions about life, values etc. and taking action on that. Also accepting others for who they are and other golden principles, that just give a solid foundation for a relationship. Yet compatibillity is the number one thing I observed, otherwise there is nothing really morally incorrect about approaching, the sleazy shit that is reported is simply bad human behaviour and evil, maybe from Gods perspective it's not that repugnant and digestable. Although most would be inclined to act more properly, I bet also the most good approaches are not even reported. I have never seen a post, about and rarely do, hey guy approached me was super nice and said no, as it's just easier to react to negativity instead of creating positivity. I dunno just over-focusing on the ego manifestation of others, is very coercive and does not really create room for contemplative reflection and insight for example some random, incels type of behaviour and hostile views etc. If you really want to change some persepctive, as they will only listen to the result, it's important for "toxic masculinity" to realize what works and what is not toxic, and women supporting that. It takes also wisdom, and many are not interested, even just going to a club having fun with a girlfriend from a more traditional household, like if that is not possible something is wrong with the idea of loyality. Especially when considering how addictive socializing can be, it's a huge distraction to spirituality and intimacy in my opinion. Then you have characters like Tate, who act like they would not let "his girl" into the club alone because of "protector" resons. Like wtf most women girlfriends I have been out with and invited to parties, were the most loyal and more concerned about the lonliness and hospitality and deep bonds and friendships, also all highly intelligent people not like some idoicy you find around the corner. Maybe that is an american thing. I dunno. Corona and A.I technology is distorting a lot of it, I also find many are to one-sided in their integrations. I would be glad to meet people in an artifical world, and non-aritifical, yet choosing one over the either just seems stupid to me. It's basically just adventure, like imagine growing up in Germany from age 16 and beign used to alcohol festive culture and having a yearning for this "inner child & inner youth" feelings of just going out talking to others and having a great time, meeting others (at the beginning of the PD journey 2010-2018) via the internet and travel and have hospitality etc. Then everything burns down, as this stuff does not last, this is the fault at one point shit has to settle, yet you can still enjoy adventure and plan etc. and be spontaneous, still most of these problems and relationships are spiritual. I dunno I hope I can create a network for me that is functional, holistic and fun. I enjoy events a lot, and spiritual work.
  5. I don't get the best vibes from the video type of creation with the memery, and possible undercurrents. It's extremely difficult to meet someone on the same spectrum. I often feel empowered when women have a voice, and many care about qualities of caretaking etc. That makes me for example feel like a strong man. The point is blaming women is ultra toxic and collectively not an answer. Fundamentally to me it is fear of having no power, and everytime I've been in a spectrum of power with a women, she usually then even gives you power! Ironically LOL! Because she wants to see you grow and be a healthy man, so to speak. This has been my experience even with let's say power dynamics that are uncomfortable. Even with feminine energy men. What I don't like about the content creator, it feels like it's a guy who never looked a bit more deeply into ancient cultures, like just from skimming one book and the history section he picks (heavily acadmic poltical science background almost stereotypical about post-modernistic green), I will not take this guy seriously, besides when he get's to the non-bullshit, as I am from Europe and I've seen and felt this kind of bullshit, in a very social system, even if captalistic. Like for me this guy evokes notions of Blumenbach with his "eastern attitude". Colonialism won't cut it for me, please study Sexology or smth. And see how "disgusting" humans can be and primitive. As well as in an idealistic sense it even works, yet we cling to apparent monogamy, and nuclear family. The one feminist I talked to liked this idea more and sees it as important and duty of society, and I am thinking is this not what you wanted to deconstruct, I am confused. Then family dynamics become very real and we just get back to a patriarchy, because of lack of SD Yellow values. I agree with the right wing grifters, so to speak that they are giga toxic, it's like they attack your vulnerabillity and discreate the open space for more healthy dating with a more flexflow oriented type thinking without looking for red flags and heavy screening. It's close to impossible in the next 100 years I feel besides in some rare online and social space, and places with maybe high entropy... so there is just a larger acceptance and freedom of the gripes of social darwinistic power, that you can date more freely without screeing for red flags, as even having red flags can be a red flag. It's more about compatabillity and giving others for "their story" a fair chance. I feel this is true integrity, humans do change otherwise some b.s would still be in place. The content creator is a pretty leftist grifter himself. I still do not understand what is fundamentally wrong about going out, having sex with women, beign charming and enjoy a healthy nightlife and sex life even if it evokes some healthy stage red & orange power drives and even on the leftside you'd have a stage orange experience... and women might not be the most conscious etc still you might find a gem. Still you never know who you eventually meet. When I contemplate all of this and it's way better when someone enjoys the kind of sex life the human beign wants to create. Also this can be a fun adventure. Like when I went out and I gave my best to do this consciously a guy I meet had his first kiss ever, he was so happy you would not believe it and he has way more value than me, like having this level of humility and even beign so financially save in a dual study system so young is quiet insane. How intelligent this guy approaches life, he does not get laid, because he just does not know how! Imagine he goes out everytime, and then he has to be non-judgemental about Andrew Tate and shit, because guys can coerce you in that worldview. What is wrong about it? Drinks to keep up with the guys, and actually just wants to party and have a good time, then he meets a couple of authentic guys, and we to to know people and things unfold more organically, still like I heavily want humans to connected otherwise I am so bored, I don't like it at times, and I love meeting new faces etc. Most relationships are phony to me, because even when I have the "ultimate" blueprint, in the backburner from a super-conscious coach, many women don't make the cut lol! They just want a lot of the material stuff especially online and women under the ages of 25 approx. Even on a highly leftist plattform like OkCupid, how toxic from a lifestyle perspective the self-perscribed leftist is (typical smoking cigs vegan). Then this "fortnite" gaming culture, which is true and a purple bait at times. Like for a lot of sexy and attractive young women do this, some are into the culture and how it's a disguse under the paradigm sort of from survival of the fittest, and a bit of elitist selection. (Some really just want a unique partner who is compatible) Then the counter-perspective of the more mature spiritual women that are there, who are about holism. They are so fking evolved (one liked me out of Zurich we chatted I think a bit), it's not easy to catch-up as it's their daily passion simply. So of course I as a man, even at a "conscious" place feel threatend because the whole day I am in a power dynamic and it's mostly not that cooperative, just the idea of approaching and "game" ... check Wikipedia is already framed as red pill ideaology. For me as a man with a social identity it feels like feminist want me to conform to this blue-yellow (when possible mostly heavily sd blue I feel) provider type of guy, who acts out this fully new functional, optimized lifestyle with a bit high-tech and high-status. I notice this with asian friends for example, how there is this blue coercive force of having to be the provider, and then it's about masculinity, it's so odd to describe! I wish I could give an answer, yet most just become addicted to each other on one level or the other... Many just don't know what healthy masculinity is, then even the helpful advice is taken from both sides feminists and right-wing type of Tates etc. and used for their own machniations. Like how can I tell what is masculine? By feeling the quality of it? Like David Deida is red pill why?? Just why? The guy is super leftist and his ideas are beign abused, then I feel disinclined to learn about real masculinity like martial arts and inductively without bias from it, because yes it does give me more power and also more access to feminine power and I truely love that! What I find interesting about approaching when I did it a couple of times besides online-dating, there are not many "high value women" and when you approach "high value women" if you have "value" (even that is a survival paradigm) when you have "natural selection" as a favorable mechanism, it surely helps and it feels so heavy SD blue, like having to be the perfect fit, instead of even having just a normal relationship for a while and learning from that experience, that is somehow as close as gone, as it can be it's either bang or bust, and or be together forever. Not even the understanding of learning is there, as it's just pure deconstruction, and again yes some of this stuff is super super toxic. Game, PUA and or not, guys can easily be swines. There is a good song about it in German, called "Männer sind Schweine" I do have to laugh at it at times, because it's about women hearts, and yeah the Schadenfreude spectrum anyway. Even when I first began speaking about with with a feminist friend, (who steadily complained about her "lack of masculinity" partner years ago YES because of direction, ngl she is also pretty good at it which made it difficult, yet she kept giving me tradeoff comments about what she liked in me etc. the masculinity lol! As I just do masculine stuff meditation, exercise etc. and not this neutrality type shit). Like how much status, and other stuff gives access to women, just re-inforces red-pill and it legit is "natural survival" seen as the ultimate paradigm, there is no art and love in there, it's pure survival and war. What I dislike and I still have issues with regardless online&offfline is, how close to toxic healthy masculinity can feel to me for billions for reasons, and how most just live to pro-create. Even the guy in the video gave me the impression, "Oh be save under my paradigm, we will be able to even pro-create more healthily!!". Or imagine guys adding you seeing you as the physical ideal of a man, when young and juvenille, when you are the complete opposite and still have tons to learn, then how much effort it takes and how much of a lone-wolf SD integration you need for not getting fully sucked into the rat race is not that easy. There are different analysis I could run even under the paradigm of the Ennegram, as I presume their could be some enjoyment, yet I would need more material as I did the founders courses etc. The point is from a "non-biased" not Über intellectual guy, with billions of technical definitions. Although I could give some examples if interested, I will do it anyway, when I am done with section 2 of life purpose... Approaching women and being social and well-liked and respected are basic human needs and cravings, that need to happen on some level, I can even distill them online to some level healthly. In that sense beign high-value, just how "simple" it is when you are surrended by beautiful women how many other beautiful women want you suddenly, you see clearly the survival mechanism at work. How protective beauty and all of this fashion is from potential female mates, as more not so sexy let's just say women, are totally disinterested then, full of fear, or in disgustment of the frivolousness. I dunno I have more fun empowering women making them feel good about having power, instead of saying: "Your biological due date is tomorrow". I might get less women because of it, yet I feel I get more conscious and empowering women, still going through the whole day mostly. The point about day game, I did not even appraoch 10 women IMAGINE! (All night-game also) Like how happy someone feels when you clearly know the person feels alone and wants a connection and you do this authentically, just like if you are against the "conceptual layer..." of constructed patriarchal society, and you like a bit of romance, like a daygame approach from a high-value guy (again heavy survival paradigm). Like the quality women I approached who rejected me was so happy about giving me her phone number most were to chicken to ask, they all are there to meet women, have fun and party etc. So I just approached she really was happy, that alone is quiet nice to give. The point is this is just beign politicized for practical enslavement to some level, like do you want to design perfection constantly and design perfect places, for the perfect partner for the perfect situation etc. Then saying ups sorry you messed up in life now you get no partner. Or design the perfect easy enviroment, for you and abuse survival to absolute hell, playing on easy mode so to speak. For some gamificaiton perception. I feel daygame is super polite and chill as you just casually speak to someone without having these social roles all dressed up to engage in human b.s, and you just brighten the day with a nice gesture eventually, no need to make a pure threat out of this, at night time all kinds of b.s happens, because you can get away with a lot more. I would even say day game is the best game, wheny you integrate it simply into normal activities, instead of making everything a ritual. In case single etc. I find this is better served for intimacy, reasons. Even just small adventures etc. (Like I did with female friends yes and yes it sucks - like doing pick-nick, and again yes it sucks). I'd rather have a friend group with a dog doing pick-nick. For me this would also be a sign for a more mature and open-minded women, instead of beign fear ridden because of survival concerns or unimaginable standards and basically just wanting.. .sex, food and companionship and materialism, if I am very blunt, as many are not even interested in deeper relationships it also takes a tremendous amount of mastery and willingness of both sides to engage in this, and just want good family time and companionship. Day game is way better most likely to find high quality women, instead of night game and most want casual and chill out of fear of shame. Then again power gives protection I dunno I never really meet a women with low-standards in my life and friend circle, most have been pretty picky even for me, and that has I think protected me from some toxic shit. Also it's not easy to create this, if more SJW women would empower men to become more "yellow pilled" you'd be able to see a healthy integration of more yellow values, being principled based, open-minded, non-judgemental, holistic syntehsis based and about solving more complex human issues etc. But I dunno when I see Andrew Tate and that young guys like him, and I get the projections I am sorry, for humanity lol. It's also very confusing. A non-frame war would be nice, and just reporting the excess of it, it's extremely discouraging, when a guy who is interested in integrity goes out and is forced into a power dynamic and hierachy the whole day to just take it, and then thrown back into the unkown chamber. I for example really am interested in sleeping with a lot of attractive women like I dunno not "a lot", let's say (45 max) if needed for some whatever reason, and minimum (5) for some quality restraint lol. Then like for me it's about becoming better at sex itself, as I don't want children. I don't like the right-wing propaganda at times to have children in order to have a fullfilled life, and the left is doing way better with their family orientation and more integration of other stuff. I usually like SJW type women and feminists, yet they are so against technology omfg. If you would see my female deep learning professor the whole SJW type of thinking would change to turqouise/yellow orientation of creating beauty... most take technology for a given, instead of contemplating how beautiful it is to create this. Typical 1w9 also. This gives the issue of perfection and anger . Anyway here is my semi-cosmic rant. The main issue is satisfaction and growth in a sense and not beign deluded, by social media propaganda a la denialist finest.
  6. I don't know if this expands the perspective, yet I've done DIRECT... meditations of pain within this expansion and contraction paradigm, and if I play out the scenario there is no point of existence even suffering. That is how simply it would be. Pain can move you into absolute fullfilment. It has a very satisfactory quality. You can basically become blissed out and burn yourself without experiencing pain like the vietnamese monks did during a protest, from my type of understanding. Taking full responsbility for the information. Although this is more jhanic from my understanding and has nothing to do with consciouness. It's more of a byproduct of other types of meditative work. Some "schools" deemphasise this. As far as I can tell it has nothing to do DIRECTLY, with consciouness. Bliss states and joy != consciouness, that is at least my experience. It's more restful and equanemous, yet that is not consciouness. I presume high states of consciouness can be blissed out with jhanic type of samadhi gradations... so... you see the whole point of it. The paradigm that I did: https://www.shinzen.org/wp-content/uploads/2016/12/art_painprocessingalg.pdf The deep state of bliss would evaporate any cravings, yes this is even mapped out I bet in some buddhist type texts. This is nothing very new, yet very difficult to attain. These states are jhanic not god-realized, it's more of a subset of subsets within consciouness work sort of. From my POV. Blissed out there is no problem. Although IIRC even this is also suffering, so you are also correct in some aspect. When I recall some of the book reading, I did here. Might be no end to it as long as there is a physical body, besides very very deep states of bliss from jhanic type work. Even in higher bodies "kaya's" ... it is very possible suffering is there, yet that is very advanced.
  7. I see this is enough clarification without getting into the nitty-gritty thank you! All I can say from personal experience, burning through karma, doing khanika-samadhi (style) meditation and psyches and weightlifting maybe long-distance run, dissolves a lot of karmic cravings, especially when you also exhaust them to some extend. Structure wise it also resolves the karmic rebirth cycles. (khanika-samadhi) There are schools arguing about this. All I can say is this definitely takes longer, and I like Yangs approach of using expansion and contraction and the auto-paradigm from Shinzen, it's not you and when you break it down further, it's also not the automatism of the body anymore. I can't get to these stretches physically lol, otherwise I'd have more evidence "empirical evidence". What about the expansion and contraction paradigm? What is your take on this? (From Sasaki Roshi & Shinzen's overtaking of it) as far as I understand (I legit have no time to dive into the technical depths of clarity), it leads to non-dual type of flow experiences and has a very psychdelic component to it even under the influence of psychdelics, it has an expansiveness paradigm to it, so nothing is reduced everything is expanded and the paradigm integrates, even the reductionistic perspective in that sense. Instead of soto-zen type sitting, beign aware and doing nothing, it's like an active form of the same paradim from my feeling and personal experience with both. Expansion and conctraction feels more percise, and karmic dissolving (although more risky...) than just soto-zen sitting. I like both very much! Although I prefer expansion and contraction (rarely anyone teaches this...) From a more personal experience from the reductionistic compressions, there will be expansive flavours that show you the contraction and reduction of whatever is, has a total opposite to it. More like union type of experiences, moving fully into femininty especially feeling full. The opposite of Yang moving more into Yin nature... beauty, fullness, love. There is just more of it in that paradigm, yet it goes no further than non-duality in that sense. This is sort of the stopping point of the roshis roshis of the roshis... Also at integral there is an understanding that Vipassana and I received a tip, goes no further than causal = white light, archetypial sorts of understanding, and that the zen practices all deepend the understanding to non-duality. They get stuck on the emptiness idea. Thanks in advance for claritifcations! Also for the optimization point, this takes serious effort, time and work. Guess sticking around is the name of the game.
  8. What would you say then is Shinzens paradgim? I don't really like the idea of following it not understanding what consciouness is, yet I will clearly be able to get to non-duality. That is for me personally worth it. Yang and Jammal talked about the expansion and conctraction paradigm, which is as far as I know from Sasaki Roshi and Rinzai-Zen and the "molecule" type of small object moving to larger object type of phenomena experience and it's very effective in deconstructing the self. I heard also other reports from others doing stuff like this Is Shinzens paradigm a fools errand? I received a message from you saying he is a lovely teacher and I can learn a lot from him, yet it's not god-realization, my BUT! Question is, what if I introduce more psychdelic interventions, does this help? My current path would move me to causal -> non-dual, yet that is not God-Realization is that correct? What kind of exercises are these? Could you give a brief example that would be very cool! Even better is a 10 day solo retreat more effective than his workshops? If I introduce for example 2h of deep reading and contemplative practices, mixing with psychdelic days, that would be a f*ing dream currently to do smth. like this. Ex: Retreat would be: (For me/Raw Structure) Day 1: Morning Meditation: Breakfast Meditation & Spiritual Practice 4h session with or without breaks Bio-Break Reading: 90 mins - deep texts (Ralston, Wilber, Your Videos etc. somewhat systematized beforehand) Psychdelic intervention: Cannabis, LSD, DMT etc. Meditation & Spiritual Practice - 4h Winddown: Brief Contemplation Notes (Eventually shadow work daily for prevention... of kriya type experiences) I do get them Day 2 .... Dayn: Repeat Day 1 with and without psychdelics and take hikes for example, as nature is quiet psychdelic at times for me and serves insight generation. Adjusting also for example 10h of spiritual practice minimum etc. Would that be more effective than a month long Ralston retreat? I do get a lot from beign with others, especially if they are working consciously I absorb a lot of it and give a lot of it back I feel.
  9. How does a workshop look like when you attend it what do you do there? From watching videos and checking the webpage, it's not really clear. Do you do martial arts and meditation and the contemplative talks more like dharma talks of his teachings?
  10. Elon Musk does DMT. He also did cocain at burning man I heared, classic engineer. Dunno if it's true I dislike conspiracy theories, yet source for me was trustable.
  11. What are you sharing I get the notion of it, yet these Sadhu moves might be to advanced ngl, I had impressions of this also on LSD, yet my room was not as clean to take a shit in the middle of the room .
  12. That is interesting, I dunno what to make out of it we are fundamentally doing the same as humans, even if it looks very backwards, this is what many developed humans strive for. Although the insights is very interesting. I've seen different types of explanations, so I am presonally unsure if this is archetypal phenomenon, as barely any "buddhist" would teach it and I only had a tiny experience of it on NN-DMT as it was to intense for me, it legit invited me which was to much and I did not feel like I had enough room to let go and join, and I've seen mostly the DMT stuff about it with similar kinds of reports mostly about energy and matter, not intelligence. Like "jesters" playing with balls of energy to generate matter and energy stuff like this. Also this "alien" type energy, it was like someone legit digitized my brain with a chip of aritfical intelligence stemming from an DMT alien. It was way to intense and I am super-sensetive, I just tried the new inhale technique and whoop. Like how entities generate energy and dark matter or some other type of energy and other types of stuff which are 4-5Dish apparently, I am not a physicsist, so I dunno how that dimension works in terms of it's properties for a mechanistic understanding. What is the difference of a buddhist loving-kindness methaphysical love experience and metaphysial love? Is it also not a tool & principle that generates the same outcome, even if it is not as effective as MDMA for example as well as even falling in love with a single human, that let's you love all humans more deeply. Even if that is selective. What is metaphysical and what are the qualties of it? Is the question to reductionistic? We'd move into metaphysical love no? And not reduce it to smth. It's more like union and oneness?
  13. That is a different point where I'd agree, I don't think we personally would need to discuss this for beliefs sake just clarity. It is very true, as I am not. No need to fool myself. For me I have some personal baggage positive and negative with the term, so I try to use different pointers, although I could use it maybe a bit more. I do cry at times for not having the connection to it, when my entire beign yearns for it. So I dunno what to really say. I did say it when I had the awakening to consciouness experience, I also did ask then the universe, consciouness & god what god is, it felt like it was making a mockery of myself, because of "purity idea" and I was angry with my human self and just accepted it. Still very odd trip. Took me 8h to move there on 1P-LSD or AL-LAD with 2-4h of meditation then letting go of all techniques and hitting the sweat spot. It also just hit me, this is the time now to do it. I did also exercise during this time. Deconstructing the physical body still has value imo for trips, yet I am not a deep DMT tripper, so I have no idea here. That is interesting, I'd badly want to have sex in a god like state, Wilber already hyped me for this stuff.
  14. I can see the point on Psychdelics, clearly it scares the living shit out of me. Like watching a motiviational video about smth. and it starts with: "YOU ARE THE CREATOR OF THE UNIVERSE" and I can see and feel the substrat of that and experience that fully. For me god and consciouness would be interchangeable, I don't really think I am apt for a philosophical discussion about this, yet if I would describe my experience, we could simply see if they coincide and where there are loopholes etc. I'd say the same, yet sometimes. I don't like the term god, because it evokes a lot of power feelings in me, and for me there is a clear difference in feeling and acting from god, and taking no credit, and beign slightly corrupted in terms of having flaws as any human beign, as well as yes something as mindshattering as realizing the world is maya, would be utterly beautfiul. That is something I yearned for from the get go and why I liked Alan Watts philosophy for example. Call it god's mind w/e. I'd always say god-realized mind as I woud be more warry of the power corruption...lol and I had my fair share of this stuff. No god-realization though although I understand it a bit better thanks to your videos about it. Mainstream society is just getting used to love, it's pretty much the next stage I feel. If I'd speak openly about some sci-fi theories that are ("legit") like the kardehsev scale etc. With just the emotional LL quadrant of intersubjectiveity from groups, with values and language etc. I do think we are moving towards love with all the b.s that is happening. When I contemplate even EU news (on the net), as well as just check my insta. Nobody wants pure rationality anymore I am so glad for this consciouness movement etc. It's just expected so to say, even within A.I love and adventure play a larger role at least here. Yet they bait you with holism . Then the real SD wars beginns.
  15. That is actually interesting, I don't think I noticed that there is a single non-buddhist eastern idea, mixed in it. I do think the merging parts from the experience that you featured, years ago can give deep oneness experiences, although like I often said, you have a very deep understanding in this and it's basically your 9-5 in a sense, so I am often like an employee who has to step on each rung of the ladder provided, and find the nuggets of wisdom on my own. When I had the consciouness experience, just the effort of explaining any of it would create corruption, I dunno basking in this what need would I even have to speak? Although it was just a glimpse. Emptiness = casual state, so there is no real confusions here, at least for me. He did mix some stuff of his own in there, yet there barely is anyone who is very serious about it. Expansion into space and self-inquiry by far gave the deepst experience, with psychdelics. See space definitely moves you into 4D 100%, if you want to train with Shinzens Paradigm, feel, see, rest maybe get's you 4D taste, feel space fully moves you there. For some timelness notion you can reach non-dual states, and explore all stages within Shinzens Paradigm, although from his book (new one) the science of enlightenment, he even had psychdelic experiences (maybe not mentioning because of power and image struggles etc...) with edibles etc. That gave him a taste for what consciouness is. This is an entirely "new" area maybe people in ancient jungle cities were able to explore deeply what consciouness is with psychdelic tools.
  16. This view itself does not understand the wholeness of the techniques, there are plenty of inclusion oriented wholeness aspects about various forms, of techniques like expanding into space etc. The divide and conquer method similar to what the Buddah did, is pretty much just the plain basics, the other techniques take a very different approach like the expansion and contraction paradgim, that stems from Rinzai Zen. Although when I had a taste of consciouness I had to let go of all techniques. I am just saying here more casually, it's not as reductionistics as some tradtional buddhist monastary. Shinzen is also not really a Vipassana teacher, has he includes Rinzai-Zen paradigm from Sasaki Roshi, in terms of mastery, you'd have to check who was the masters master and then verfiy for yourself. I am just using the expansion and contraction paradigm for one year, and it teaches me a lot about fear and the physical identifcation with the body. Divide and conquered works for me more subtley, although the deepst identifactions are physical! Physical body, feelings of death etc. This is what is interesting also under influence of psycdelics, although there is more an intutive flow to it. And yes best verify for yourself, although like don't be an a** and reach out to others. To clarify this is more generally meant, not directly at Leo Gura. I also don't really think it's possible, you can go to causal and non-dual experiences. God-Realizations etc seems to be entirely different. Still archetypes etc. that you meet on DMT, are the beginning of the casusal stage so... Casual-subtle, this is the only thing I am a bit worried about. Many have done psychdelics before and I miss the cross-reference and cross-paradigmatic intuitions and references. This is mostly from reading, not from direct experience.
  17. The unfoldment of itself what it teaches... it's not that profound of a question. Check Ralston for this one... What is insight goes way further! Does the insight of a principle give rise to new principles? ?
  18. Meeting others and move from monological to dialogical to translogical power, in a sense it's inevitable, besides you are at a level of consciouness unfathomable for most, then I can't really tell as it's most translogical power then. The idea is to move from I statements = monological power to we statements = dialogical power to non-judgement and a deep level of mindfulness. That is the principle of it. I made up an example, although it was to positive. Saying, I don't know and we can do this instead etc. Admitting flaws and doubts, generally gives rise to respect, that is a bit counter-intutive. (Translogical -> dialogical power) It's mostly a high-form of non-judgement and mindfull awareness a bit of like what open-awareness meditation and zen meditation is, you take in the whole and apply non-judgement. You might already be intuitively good at it, and the other two dialogical power "structures" / ideas, might be good. Monolgoical power in my experience is assertivness, we dialogical power more leadership, and (new concept I learned recently) translogical power is more like englightend leadership, you work as hard as others, apply non-judgement include all, play the whole ladder up and down each rung, and dispell illusion in a sense, by creating clarity, purpose, autonomey and direction for others themselves. Although this mostly plays out in we/i space. Not translogical space. So to speak. I am not often in a position currently like this, thick face and black heart is still a core book if it's about deep leadership coming more from an awareness&consciouness perspective and beign acting with integrity and values, as well as qualities of leadership. Although the groundwork has to be done, in the sense of having a position where these principals can be applied. This is also subtely pro-active. Personally I get more room, yet this also depends highly on skills and competencies. etc. I struggle with anger and impatience at times, and meet others who are similar. The concept is from Ken Wilber, I can't link it I did it in a payed course. https://integrallife.com/full-spectrum-power-announcement/ It's a bit overhyped, I did not come back to it, although it has value. I would not recommend buying it if you are not into integral theory and a nerd so to say. This is the idea in it's essence non-judgemental leadership -> dialog in we space and dialog from I space. Translogical power transforms power dynamics into plain non-judgmental playingfields mostly. Very open and exploratory feelings, when I contemplate how this feels to me mostly. As well as just pure beign etc. It would not feel like a powerbind and a steady struggle for one-upmanship. It's more exploratory and open. Brief example: Group Project Gather ideas -> discuess in we space -> apply non-judgement -> use communication skills in we space -> make I assertion -> continue leadership principles -> non-judgement etc. This is mostly it, I find it dispells power dynamics, does not mean you can control others and get the "perfect group" and team project running. It creates more harmony though 100%. This also goes for friendships, so you can cut the chase with topics of non-interest to you without beign very rude for example. I hope the idea is somewhat clear!
  19. Hello I found this test conducted by two researchers about sexism. Would be cool to see how biased the forum is towards women and women themselves towards women themselves. I wondered at times as my dating results were not very great. And been still pretty eye-opening and a great learning experience, how well I'd fare on a Mysogyny test, I found this. https://www.idrlabs.com/ambivalent-sexism/test.php Scored 0% on hostile feminism. And 6% on benevolent feminism. What insight helped you the most for eliminating bias and hate against women?
  20. A elitist selection would be a total regression for the forum, even if it will pull up most likely all stakeholders. I don't really think this is very fair and it's pure survival of the fittest and heavy dominance oriented. I would block and define toxic behavior more instead of making the place "elite", most would simply buy themselves in and benefit from favouritism on the forum. It also screams cult in a sense as no one has public access to the stuff anymore. Let people do mistakes and ban them if they missbehave to often.
  21. The burden of proof is a serious classic and where the mob turns to pitchforks. This place is not here to entertain people. Like how much glee does a pathetic ego need for his self-ammusement. This is legit the ape shit.
  22. Yes we mean the same, I am just unsure how this stuff plays out at high levels I find this tricky, I was there in one report where one guy somehow chased a guy with a baseball bat and seemed to act from god (he was chasing a schizophrenic bum and had a high state experience), what can you make out of this? Shinzen sort of dispelled the illusion as he was so prideful about this incident, sort of as an "act" from god. At least this is my notion of the event. Never unfortunately, I played the video games as a kid . I know it's a shame. I know this is sort of when I reached TIER2 and I notice I have this massive influence and I have to downgrade, as SD Green really does not like natural hierachies at all I noticed. When I then open up, I notice how much b.s goes into these worldviews and how equality in a sense can feel repressive when I look at history etc. It's quiet tricky I can understand from some level, I just know it's very tricky to work with an SD green therapist on SD Yellow issues for example. The lonliness and autodidactivness and lifelong learning, they are so overwhelmed and need this stage blue technical A-Z blueprint it hurts a lot. I really don't think the outlashes are to bad, the ones with the suicide and gun to the head I found was to serious, that is not funny anymore and I've been there. Not with a gun just in extrem situations where I do not even have the option etc. I just don't think some of the group projections he has are healthy and instead of providing hope, this sort of god complex? shines forth. I find it very tricky to navigate this, when I contemplate how serious this is. You basically have to be super good at beign a chamelon and navigating social spaces, professionally. I don't find it easy either, sometimes I make promises I can't keep because I am overestimated the situation and then get scollded in a sense, at one point it's 3 strikes and you are out. Usually I make one strike even 2 in chaos, yet I did not do 3 till now at least. At least the third attempt hits. The point is many here don't realize how f*ed the world is with striver and achiever mentallity and how fortunate it is to have self-questioning greens and how many need a stage blue a-z blueprint, it gives them security a lot. I don't like it either I'd rather explore something unknown, yet during this exploration all kinds of stuff does happen. I wish he would not engage with members like this and focus more on his video then etc. He could cut the b.s more effectively the members he b.s cuts are the ones with the god complex themselves in a sense by saying. I AM TOTALLY AWAKEND ETC. I know what sort of is meant, yet it's tricky to gauge and I wish he would serve at times as a more mature role model who is playful and that is fking hard ngl. Also entertainment and memes are one of the worst epdidemics I find of young adults. It's horrible. I am glad none of this b.s is allowed. It's just when it's so prosaic that there is less room for b.s. Like in a physics class etc.
  23. Yeah this is what scares me generally and what I have been warned about. I am glad this is an online forum. I heard this also from others who think they are "god" and then some odd stuff happens and some grounding has to happen. It's very tricky, I never liked the god stuff although there are moments in sports and meditation where I just feel like this has to be god. Even if it is just an emotion and not consciouness. So I don't mind the wording either. Overall some of the vibes do scare me of the guy, not very seriously just it's shocking at times. I dunno with mania etc. When I contemplate what they did to Allan Turing etc. I am unsure how advance all of this is as well as the projections I get etc. A lot of this stems from SD green beign very ignorant I know why many members at integral openly admitt hating stage green, as it's quiet delusional at times and rarely provides enough clarity. I don't like it also I think to a degree it was fine, the suicidal stuff with the gun to the head scared me, I don't think this is even here. This is not very good and I don't like this attitude from someone who inspires and motivates millions, it's to much and it's to radical. The above is fine. Then he also has a physical health condition with hashimotos so I dunno, overall it's best when he finds some balance with humans that support him and he can admitt some stuff without beign bullied etc. I don't think many treat him with compassion, it's like they see him as a clown as they focus on this "concret self" as many do and you have to sort of be some idealized form of a teacher, otherwise others demonize you. I don't think he wants that, as well as wants to be any projection. He could have called him self Leo Zen etc. Maybe Leo Gura is his real name etc. He still prefers in my eyes the guru perspective as it has less of a collective social enforcement, I just wish he would speak about some more healthier relatable topics and make god-realization more relatable etc. He could try some different approachs not just though love everytime, with some it might never work. Like legit I was glad when I had a more stable fundament that I could do psychdelics and go on retreats to see both and without shadow work there will be some shadow personality, all of these dysfunctions are written in ROT from Ken Wilber, I could analyze him with the book and see ah he has this and that there etc. Sure, I dunno I don't like the outlashes either, at the sametime I had psychologist recommend me to go scream in a forest for example and it does help. I just wish he would expend his energy differently and not engage with the totally lost causes. Dude... this does happen here to often and this is why some left and they are legit more happy than I can imagine. I would stop helping the totally lost causes, and create more of a pragmatic framework for them. I talked to some for me this is close to lost, and I understand why some members had such a bad view of this place. I know this also from a friend who helps sort of "lost causes" and at times it's a perpetuation of pain, it's a cycle I don't blame him. It's simply my impression I hope he can let go more of this.
  24. He is still part Ukranian and part Russian, you never know how he truely feels about all of the stuff that is happening on the globe and how it affects him. Just bashing him is not very fair imo. I do resent him partially, yet it's odd. Especially just doing psychdelics without any yoga and or meditation makes me more distrustful of the whole stuff. Overall I feel he could be more encouraging and let the pigs be pigs so to speak and just let them be moderated, most kick themselves out imo. Also the users did curse back at him, so he could have banned him I dunno analyzing this endlessly is pointless. You can actually read this like a poem .
