@Leo Gura can you in your book or on the blog create good maps, or graphics. 

A picture does sometimes say more than 7 hours interview. If you just showed curt some pictures and say look at the pictures. Can you now see? 

Some people can understand things only with with pictures.

Yes, but it goes deeper than that.

Enlightenment is not God-Realization even.

Enlightened people do not understand God.

Can you become so deeply enlightened eventually through enlightenment you become God-Realized? 

Not what I'm planning to do but just curious.

Of course, it's very clear by this point

What you said was my point, plus the extra nuance of all the facets that come in the process.

Oh also Leo for attaining liberation with no psychedelics, is kriya yoga enough, or should I be doing mindfulness as well?

I think he dabbled in psychedelics or self inquiry and it made him very uncomfortable, he even called emergency services on himself if i recall correctly its been a while since i listened to his podcast.

So the claim is x person is "lost in concepts". Now, merely knowing about a state that puportedly goes beyond concepts (not even having had an "explosive" experience of it directly, but perhaps feeling it is possible through intuition), would that mean you're "lost in concepts" or is your position more "aware of alternatives to concepts but being mostly focused on concepts"? Again, if the lesson is "not being lost in concepts", start by investigating your judgements. Then again, I know Leo likes to judge. It is promoted here.

Contrast it to a physicist who has never heard about the concept of non-duality, who is stuck in his mind and disconnected from his body, and thinks even psychology is woo woo.

Maybe if I mail Curt my cat t-shirt he will have an instant satori upon opening the package. Especially if I add some microwavable bacon in there.

It seems like much of the forum hasn't learned the lesson from Leo's Deconstructing Rationalism series. All I'm doing is applying the lesson. It's completely obvious what Curt and academics are doing wrong in terms of Philosophy once you understand it.

The issue isn't even awakening or mystical experience, it's the way of thinking. Our 21st century culture essentially indoctrinates itself into being mentally stunted. Curt's way of thinking makes it impossible for him to understand reality unless he changes.

@AtmanIsBrahman Good! At least you learned the lesson.

An analytical mind is too divided to realize the Unity of Existence.

I would love to help Curt if he would just listen to me.

Does Curt not have "any clue" what it is?

The fact that he has had panic attack because of it shows he knows what it is. Panic attack is entering a non dual state.

Other than mystical experience or awakening, what is it you think Curt is missing?

It is interesting how we are trained to talk this way in University.  

I would not know that. With formal education, I only got up to GED. No wonder I am confused when watching this video.
