Clavicular has the rizz of a frozen bag of peas.

I met a guy in my first year of university who I for some reason told I meditated and watched Sadhguru, and he happened to have bought Inner Engineering - a Yogi's Guide to Joy and he gave me it. That seemed like he was sent to do that. And when I read the first few pages, insta awakening experiences. I thought the book was too powerful so I hid it away. Then not long after I stopped meditating.

What an impressive verbal image. You looksmaxxed the hell out of that image.

I had not meditated consistently for years and started doing a structured release of attachments. In a few days, I entered non-dual consciousness while sitting down to watch TV. You can meditate for a lifetime, but if you cannot put the backpack down, even for a second, you will be carrying it, meditation will only make you drop it on accident.

No :/ I irradiated them epiclothaneously with a stainless metal alloy device containing sub-room temperature liquid dihydrogenmonoxide. Tasty.

I did a back-to-back sauna session recently. Entirely stripped of electrolytes.

Doesn't matter if USA invades or threatens to invade your country. I live in Norway, next to Denmark. Denmark owns Greenland. Greenland is situated in a similar territory to Svalbard, which is owned by Norway.

One of the realest questions you can ask is "where were you before you were born?", and the answer is not "in a past life" but in Infinity. Although now I start questioning that answer, considering you could be floating in a subtle body somewhere, watching your moma's belly from above, and the crib that you will inhabit for the next few years.

When you ask people about reincarnation and how they know they have reincarnated, they will answer "I remember living at that place and that time". It's a thought about the past, of themselves seemingly living in the past. Therefore, the most epistemically parsimonious position is that reincarnation is simply when you can recall thoughts about what seems like yourself from a different life. Now, can you ask a sardine to recall and produce thoughts about any past lives? Perhaps not, but maybe you could ask a human about their past life as a sardine. You can be agnostic about the metaphysical implications of past life claims without denying that the people may have legitimate 1st person experiences of memories of what seems like past lives. You can say it's not "them" in a past life but simply "a" past life they recalled. But then there are extraordinary past life claims that trace lives chronologically back thousands of years, no mentioning of random time jumps or somehow multiple lives from the same time. It would then be a better explanation that there is a kind of a metaphysical structure there, like a subtle body, persisting through biological death. And this is already the case: your body is not the same body as 7 years ago. All the cells have been replaced, through controlled or circumstantial cell death, yet your experience persist, continuously through every cell death, from your first memories to today. When you're remembering your childhood as an adult, you're recalling memories from a different body. "But the overall structure is the same, it's the same creature, just gradually changing". Yes, there seems to be a kind of a "subtle" element that persists despite gradual biological change. And yes, it's just a funny example of how things persist despite biological change. Perhaps something persists despite complete biological structural annihilation as well.

You have a fixation on non-pointing.

Reincarnation happens every moment you think a self-referential thought ("I/me/my" thoughts). Enlightenment eliminates self-referential thoughts. If the thoughts are eliminated, the string of thoughts preceding it are broken. What is reincarnation? A string of self-referential thoughts extending across lifetimes.

Bruhhh he said they were materialists, Essentia Foundation is explicitly an organization meant for spreading idealism. It's probably DemystifySci Podcast.

I can pinpoint it and you can too if you're not suppressing your gut response, but it's part of what makes Leo Leo and it probably won't change (and in some cases, maybe it shouldn't).

He did say some impactful things as well, but like with all teachings, they are often misunderstood.

@MuadDib Yup. The disclaimer is already a vibe killer (it already was for the Curt Jaimungal appearance). It is highly unusual (nobody does a 4-minute pre-written disclaimer before an interview) and creates a rift between the viewer and the interviewee. The disclaimer can be revealed step-wise for each question when required. In an interview you're supposed to reveal information in a sequential fashion in the rhythm with the questions. Or else you break with the format and it comes off as forced and unnatural. If it's really necessary, I would just give a one-sentence disclaimer at the top of your head before you begin answering the first question, like "just as a quick disclaimer: we're going to use a few words today that might be loaded for some people, like God, Absolute Truth, but if you keep an open mind, you will maybe still appreciate what I have to say". And perhaps "also, questioning reality might be destabilizing for some people so be aware of this when deciding whether to watch the video or not".
