Losing the ability to connect with "ordinary people" and "uncomplicated joy" because of spiritual pursuits.

- Believing certain spiritual messages just because they are said often rather than independently verifying their validity

- Thinking spirituality is not important simply because most people are not practicing it/make fun of it

- Believing spirituality will fix all of your problems

- using spirituality as a means of escape

- thinking that there is one spiritual teacher/discipline who has it all figured out

- thinking you are more wise than anyone else

- Thinking that you will become or stay crazy because of a spiritual experience or psychedelic experience

- not reading

- thinking yourself superior to others because of your spiritual progress

- reading too much (without a meditation/contemplation/yoga/psychedelic practice to back it up)

- Thinking you can make others see spiritual truths

- Not being constantly on the lookout for traps and tricks of the mind

No such thing as too skeptical. What you mean is, thinking you already know better when you actually don't. Which just means you're not skeptical enough, or forgot to include yourself. :)

Haha correct. I meant the lack of open-mindedness, like when a stage orange person hears a stage green person talk about the universe and love and peace, he might dismiss it^^

Not able to distinguish harry potter magic with hard core spirituality

Reading too much fluff in self help books i.e reading every word by heart , whereas you can just stick to what's needed and read those parts then execute.

Being isolated like a hermit 

Not exploring various kinds of self-help (believing self help= stuff you find inamazon / bookstore self-help section,that's it )

believe in something, for example, I am god. integrate that belief in such a way that you think that it is not a belief, but it is direct experience

How is arguing and debating a trap?

arguing is the idea that someone is wrong

everyone is right according to their level of consciousness

i have no business or duty to step in and speak truth

everyone out there is perfect and exactly where they are supposed to be

i work on myself and i let others be

Worrying about traps others are making and not what you yourself are doing.

I've noticed this has become more of a pet peeve thread than anything else. 

"Oooh, ooh, I remembered a pet peeve, better go post it in that online forum for everyone to see.  Aaah, that's better."

I mean, get real.

Overworking is a big one. People don't understand how important work/life balance is.

Work to live.

I think high level, intellectual debates are enlightening.

Leo must have been referring to the more tedious, unnecessary, dead-end debates, which I agree are a waste of time.

  • Getting demotivated, because you don't manage to live up to your potential
  • Not taking action because of perfectionism, entitlement, overthinking, confusion

Connor shattered Leo’s trust big time 

Connor is more stable. But, he likely still lacks maturity, integrity and etc

Oh ok, I see. I read the “I do not” from Leo as “Well I’m not doing pretty well these days” responding the post he did that Connor seems to be doing pretty well these days.
 

P.S.: Sometimes I have to traduce some stuff to spanish so maybe the phrase has a extra meaning that I don’t know, thanks tho.??

Connor Murphy is not doing well at all, he returned back to his old way of making cringy and worthless content, He had so many phases of utter stupidity. He was like a man who was offered a boffuet of all the delecious foods he could ever imagine but he  says no to all of that and goes to eat some shitty food, now this is how Connor Murphy doing.

He didn't Shutter Leo's trust. I gess Leo expected things to come  down how they did. Connor is bipolar and psychdelics hurted him bad. I once did some acid and at the end of the trip it hit me hard. I immediatly recognized myself as being in the Connor Murphy state. You understand totally that you are God and you don't care about anything, You want to troll people and to make jokes about how enlightened you are and how silly reality is. This is how Connor Murphy was thinking.
