  1. @ivankiss I dont think that is a fair assessment of the OP. I get that you were humorous, but i would rather keep a positive attitude towards asking questions on this forum. And i havent seen the OP in the lengthy solipsism debates, so you could have just focused on other aspects of the question and not bring up solipsism at all.
  2. I just saw a youtube short today about Wallabys in Tasmania high on poppys (heroin) making them crop circles. Apparently they got caught on camera but didnt see the actual footage.
  3. The body’s function is to preserve and build complexity. In order for the Earth to develop life, there had to be many things go be a certain way. a certain distance from the sun, moon, other planets a certain size a moon the gas giants to protect us from asteroids etc Because of all these things the Earth is a place where complexity was able to develop and not get destroyed. Your body is the same, just in a smaller scale. The key takeaway is that the body supports the complexity necessary for us to maintain our level of consciousness. Your chair you are sitting on doesnt ask why is it a chair because its nowhere near as complex as your body.
  4. I would love to attend this retreat. Its probably not realistic for me to go next year, but eventually for sure. If you do one in Europe, all the better. I think Portugal is also a good candidate along with Netherlands for that.
  5. Hey, im getting this error message lately on the forum. The error message is a bit confusing for me, its phrased like the problem is with my device, but i think i got it with multiple devices one of them definitely has sufficient storage…
  6. Yooo that is interesting, but how/why did they do this ? Through empirical knowledge or they knew something thats lost on us ?
  7. Thanks for the video, Leo! The main insight about Truth is top quality, however the part where you mentioned people who are not spiritually minded was specially interesting to me, because i was thinking about this quite a bit lately. As you said there are people who want to be interested in Truth but its just not in their system or have a hard time to do the labor, but my point is that there are people who are just not interested at all. I can think of a few topics that would make for an interesting conversation, for example: Raising the base level of consciousness vs. enlightenment - to advance humanity The unfilled role of spiritual guidance in modern societies after religion A lot of political stuff, like how advanced should a government be vs. representing the people (this is more of a philosophical question as todays governments don't do either well)
  8. Exactly. Thanks for having us, Leo! And it does seem to be faster in the past couple days, i wasn’t much online though.
  9. If im not stressed out i can probably do 4 hours of focused mental work as well. It never occurred to me to measure how much of my work is high quality, im just trying to do the best i can and if i notice that im getting too distracted or something i take a break or do something else. I dont know anything about your line of work, but it seems like you know what you are doing. Good luck!
  10. I noticed you said earlier that your comments are sarcastic. You are not playing with me, are you? Anyway if you are serious, i just dont have the energy or time for a meaningful conversation right now. This whole conversation was on the level of a facebook post comment section.
  11. You got 1 jigsaw out of the 1000 pieces puzzle there. You cant be seriously expecting that simplistic thinking like that is going to accurately describe human social behaviour.
  12. He is literally wanted at the International Criminal Court for crimes against humanity. And even if he wasn’t he lives with the benefits of a civilized world while destroying it for everybody else. This is not the middle ages anymore.
  13. Ah i see what you mean, its not that you are not taking breaks for 4-5 hours, but thats the total amount you can spend on high quality work in a day.
  14. I think it is more productive to do small brakes like 15 minutes every hour or so. It depends on the situation as well of course. What business are you building?
  15. In my understanding the paper goes about a fundamental change in how we drive that would be most probably also be represented in traffick law changes. And of course we can change how we are doing things as a society. Yes there’ll be people that suck, but that doesn’t mean you don’t upgrade shit. 200 years from now the people are going to look back at us and they will be amazed how stupid and inefficient we were.
  16. I grew up in the hip-hop culture and i still love rap today. My first music cd was 8 mile from Eminem. Im much more selective now though than i used to be. I might come back here later to post some hungarian rap music. Cheers
  17. Indeed, thats funny. Im the handsome clone though! About the war, it has to be stopped. You are reasoning for not fixing the brakes on a car, because the shieldwipers are broken as well.
  18. Intelligence is a really good contemplation subject. Intelligence is an aspect of consiousness just like Love is. Leo has some pointers for you though.
  19. Yeah im 99% sure its a backend problem
  20. And one shall be doing some checking out. I think i might be one of those who have glossed over it.
  21. @SOUL Very good insight. Sometimes i feel like im a paranoid… Goddamn you, lizard mind!!
  22. I tought what you are describing is kind of similar to what the Buddha meant by the Middle Way.
  23. I never heard of that before. Good luck on your journey. You are doing a good job with the self awareness and willingness to change!
  24. Believe it or not, Leo was my introduction into the world of personal development. I literally typed in “personal development” into youtube and one of his videos came up. My first reaction was crying, because i finally found someone like me. That must have been like 10 years ago now. I had a phase early on when i would preach enlightenment to my best friends… dumb idea obviosly. Later i tried to share spiral dynamics and content thats not too advanced with friends i tought would be interested / capable. Never got a single conversation out of it. This is why i said recently this forum is probably the best place to meet intelligent people online.
