New Episode: Epistemic Responsiblity - Out Now!

165 posts in this topic

I'm proposing a new core practice of self-actualization that is complementary to the existing ones: Waking up, growing up, cleanign up, showing up, (opening up, stepping up)

I call this "glowing up".

It means becoming precisely aware of ones perculiar wiring and integrating this knowledge into the other practices. It includes the notion that saying "I have unique genetics" is not enough for true self acceptance and therefore self-actualization.


The Fragment is both existence and the necessity for its possibility

When i first saw this episode posted, my first thought is that its a rehash of the same thing Leo has been teaching for years.

As I listen to it a second time, this is probably one of the best episodes in recent months ... it hits different for some reason.

Mastering epistemic responsibility is truly foundation ... there is no sovereignty of mind/intellect without it.

@Cred Also what I'm realizing is I'm probably Aspergers.

Upside to it is that nothing has fucking worked for me. 

There is hardly a safety net which neurotypicals get by simply being themselves.

Relationships, jobs, socializing... It all just happens. Not saying they don't work hard and have there struggles.

But for me everything has been damn near impossible. The amount of obsession and dedicated time I've put towards GAME and social skills development to the expense of the rest of my life is rare. 

Ultimately the result Is say is highly developed philosophical and spiritual qualities... Because I have almost nothing to hide behind. 

But of course there's other areas where I struggle to sustain a basic level of competence.

I think it gave a educated response. Better response than you would get from most people. Which part you didn't agree with?

I don’t read AI responses. Unless I’m working with an AI myself.

Do you read AI opinions when someone else posts them?


Words can't describe You.

I am rewatching the episode on Not Knowing and realizing that I am posturing many things as known when I actually dont know. It feels that knowing is a sort of mechanism to avoid the fear of not knowing. Is like when you meet someone, one starts trying to gather information as soon as possible about the person in order to feel a sense of security, because to interact not knowing something about who is in front of you is subtly scary, who knows who is this person in front of you? Maybe a psyco and one wish to fill the gap knowing something about him or her very fast. We do this with reality all the time, trying to fake we know it all, avoiding with all costs living in not knowing.
