Very cool and brave to be that curious, knowing that asking for biases is related to unconscious stuff we don't like to look at.

• Vulnerability vs control
• Trust in the power of love between humans above what is transactionnal
• Emotional intelligence and peaking into the unconscous (whether the personal one, or the collective one)
• Processing old emotions by letting them be, instead of doing some intellectual bypassing or spiritual bypassing
• I was offended () when you refused to drink our Great Mother Aya in its original form and decided that pharmascuha would be the superior experience.

So... mostly some feminine principled elements

Would be nice to look at a list and see what gives you the hicks.

I personally had plenty first time I did it, and I should check where I am at now.

This is not clear to me.

Maybe if you were less focused on your biases, you would’ve already realized your lack of biases and written a book or gone to the next level in your life by now.

At a certain point, hasn’t your bias just become eliminating biases?

Everyone on this forum is presumably here because, at some point, they felt they had something to learn from you. I think that automatically puts them on a different level in your mind, simply because of the nature of that relationship.

 

I think that can make it easy to confuse being the teacher with being right.

This is very interesting imo. I don’t even know that I’ve seen it play out but it seems it could be an especially tricky trap.

It’d also be a hard point of contention, with the topics at hand. 

But that’s also what leads me to believe this may not be a super issue for him.

I don’t see him power tripping us. 

Sure, the videos and blog and comments can be arrogant  sometimes! But he also believes that shit and doesn’t care if you believe him.

It is not like he’s ever played the ‘teacher card’ here on the forum.

I would be very curious to know what still gets him curious, though.

Why the African masks?

What other spatula recommendations does he have—I really like the one I got lol.

If anything maybe he avoids the teacher role too much now. Am I crazy?

I think some of his more pragmatic, human stuff like that actually helps contextualize the other work.

It can just be difficult to balance that with reality, sometimes.

"The arrogance". Its fine for me, I dont get offended or put off by it, but when I send your videos to others, they are usually averted to them usually point out the arrogance. So if you want more followers, changing it could help. Maybe also the claims that you are the most conscious person ever it could be true but thats a strong claim. 

Also I am sometimes surprized by the negativity, sometimes even the hatefulness in your blogposts.

@Leo Gura I can't recall Leo claiming he was the most conscious person ever? I feel like his mods are on the same level and most of them are actually much wiser than him in a certain aspect.

@Leo Gura

1. You get fixated on specific topics or points leading to over saturation on the blog. Quality has diminished in this respect and quality has taken priority to driving home your point.

2. You are not very open regarding your experiences with the body in respect of truth. Being more open regarding insights and perspectives in this area would open a huge area of truth left undiscovered and undiscussed. 

3. You often make claims but never produce results, such as course and future videos. Something always takes precedence or you lose focus.

Leo I think you underestimate a daily meditation practice for producing mystical states. But I think that's bc as you said in one of your other posts, you're not very mentally loose, so you need a more hardcore practice like kriya yoga. But for someone who is loose I think kriya yoga can actually be too much.
