Anything above Truth Is CORRUPTION!!! 

Yeah, but we're all corrupt at the end of the day. That's the truth

Edited by Davino

God-Realize, this is First Business. Know that unless I live properly, this is not possible.

There is this body, I should know the requirements of my body. This is first duty.  We have obligations towards others, loved ones, family, society, etc. Without material wealth we cannot do these things, for that a professional duty.

There is Mind; mind is tricky. Its higher nature should be nurtured, then Mind becomes Wise, Virtuous and AWAKE. When all Duties are continuously fulfilled, then life becomes steady. In this steady life GOD is available; via 5-MeO-DMT, because The Sun shines through All: Living in Self-Love, Realizing I am Infinity & I am God

What's also true is that I can do my best to be less corrupt. There's a very erotic strange relationship between Truth and Corruption.

That's what all this Self Actualization work is, from being this corrupt survival zombie, to striving and thriving to become selfless and wise sages. There will still be corruption, maybe we can never be totally free of human corruption but I don't know that and I am open to that as a possibility to be completely free of corruption. It's a hell of nut to crack.

You said "Truth" is compassion. Yet you said ""Truth" doesn't care about specific individual's feelings." So how are you so sure that "Truth is compassion"?

Yes, that's the path of Truth and personal development.

We also don't have to forget that all finite manifestations must be corrupt by virtue of being limited. So in human development we are a finite figment of reality evolving towards ever more complete holism without ever crossing the event horizon of perfection or total Truthfulness, unless one becomes Infinite and Godly.

Prioritizing truth over personal benefit. Here are three examples:

You deliver some work to your boss, but you find there's a mistake in it. Do you commit to truth and disclose the embarrassing mistake? Or you just say, whatever.

You get a job offer from a great company, but you believe the work will compromise your integrity to Truth, they are involved in army contracts, oil companies and alcohol drinks. However, you would earn a lot of money, thrice your current salary. Would you take tha offer and say, whatever, somebody has to do that job. Or you stay committed to truth and say: No thank you.

Let's say you go to a wedding, you are well dressed in a suit and quite attractive. The party ends and you go to the club with some friends. A girl looks at you and connection happens. You start talking, there's attraction, and something among these lines happens: you must have a very nice job and life, how well you look. You feel flattered by such compliment from such a hot women, but should you break that magical moment and just be truthful and say you have a mediocre job and a bellow average lifestyle. Or will you just shrug your shoulders and say whatever, I'm just gonna be skilfull, crack a joke and let her assume that to my benefit. 

These three hypothetical situations test your commitment to truth and make the difference between lofty ideals and a grounded embodiment of Truth into everyday life.

I think you misunderstand Leo. 

You can lie but still be truthful. Stay to the truth that you are a liar and be conscious of that and take responsibility. Truth will be with you.

What you describe is just human morality.

Amen to that brother. That's what self actualization is. I just love conversations like this.

Britney Spears was mentioned in the video at 00:37:55. 

What do you all think of Britney Spears? I recently made new friends, mostly women, who love Spears and they keep singing her songs whenever I'm around them.

On one hand I really like some of her songs, especially her début single, but on the other hand the celebrity world really destroyed her, especially in 2007 when she attacked a paparazzi with an umbrella. 

Do you consider her life any way enviable? Especially how young she was when she became successful,  how good of a singer she is and how good some of her songs are.

That's just cunningness. Because if you value Truth, you instantly see how that will corrupt and rotten your mind over time.

Of course, you can lie and hopefully, still you are aware enough to recognise; I am lying and breaking my integrity for personal gain; but that is an exception, not the norm. The way of living in this word is extremely important to reach the highest metaphysical and epistemological Truths. If you go on deceiving, cheating, lying, manipulating but somehow you claim you're aware of all that process and that Truth is still with me, that is a heavy hindrance in the path. Just beware.

No, I'm talking about a much more profound and nuanced notion. But even if you wanna frame it as just human morality, in terms of truthful living; who meets the standard of "just" human morality?

It takes insane work to constantly keep integrated to Truth and that is, in a way, the grinding work many spiritual individuals are heavily avoiding. Creating a heavy schism between their philosophical and truthful awakening pursuits and the grounding everyday living of putting your feet into the fire of truth. That purifies you, that matures you and that makes an inner alchemy that synergizes with your epistemology and Awakenings in profoundly nuanced and holistic ways.

Her early work is legendary.

'Hit me baby one more time' is a timeless masterpiece, utter perfection, 'Oops I did it again' is also perfection.

@Davino

I agree. Integrity is existential - not moral. You fuck up your experience when you lie. And we always lie when we want something - or want to avoid something. So it's selfish survival shit.

Ralston is great on this: 

 


Deal with the issue now, on your terms, in your control. Or the issue will deal with you, in ways you won't appreciate, and cannot control.

I just watched Leo's episode "What are Holons? Understanding Holism part 1" incredible how that concept ties into this.
