The solution to the problem of self-deception
From girl in England”You’re one of most selfless influential men I ever took advice
from since i became 10 years old” I love how open minded,brave,wise,intelligent,
healthy,thrift,thoughtful,relatable,modest yet worthy of infinite praise every life!I
meditate almost ever school day in school thanks to your unparallelled
advice including overcoming addictions I am more emotionally free from all my
emotional problems I love you for who you are leo
we really need more emotionally mature intelligent unpredictable men like you!
Tim says: Sadly Leo dont practice is what he teaches. He became, or always been maybe, a narrow-minded leftist, a low information voter, a crazy woke person, judgemental and uninteresting. Sad because he used to have interesting videos , not any more.
Big Man says: “Anyone who doesn’t sheep to my beliefs is a jugemental narrow minded sheep”. (That might be a straw man, but that’s what I got out of it). I could call you a snowflake for acting up because someone has different beliefs to you but that would be just as hypocritical on my part as you calling this guy narrow minded for not sheeping to your group of thought.
I came to this website to be able to accept this kind of thing – actually nothing – but luckily for you, I’m not at a mature enough state in my personal development to leave and ignore this. It will make no difference whatsoever. You probably won’t even see it, and nothing will change if you do.
Your comment copy and pastes from every other fox news pragerU echo chamber comment complaing about “liberals”. It looks like it could be found word for word on Trump’s twitter (RIP).
Although this does point out a wider problem. Leo, if you are reading this how can I practice what I/you preach. When meditating and listening to or thinking about spirituality, I have no anger, fear, obsession etc. However, when I am outside of this context, I am just as anxious and angsty as any other time. How can I apply the lessons and insights that I have learned from spirituality to real life, to avoid these kinds of episodes?
Thanks mate.
Cris says: I loved this! Looking back I realize I’ve created my own life from day 1!
You’re so right! I know it because it’s already in me!
I am alone. I created all the shit in my life for being so disconnected from me, from the TRUTH.
I reached a level where I can see how I manifest within hours!!!
I see into the future because I create it as I go. Can’t tell how I’m doing it. It’s not thought nor feeling or anxiety, I just know what’s coming, it’s some sort of guessing but being certain about it and then the confirmation. It’s like saying I want that on there and then it manifests but I’m not sure I like it or it really matters. It’s just there.
I realize I have to be careful not to manifest from a space of fear or negativity cause fears also manifest.
Little things that happen in ordinary everyday life that I create. I know I’m gonna meet a person I’m thinking about in the exact place I imagined it. it’s like a stupid meaningless thought you put aside and then boom, the next day it’s in front of you. I have to journal so that I can remember. It’s very scary because I know I can manifest shit to )
It’s scary just thinking I can do this with little unimportant everyday things.
I can only imagine how I created a whole life. What a mess it was. And then the cleaning of the mess, cutting relationships, radical changing, collapse, diet, crisis, pain(I went through a twin flames separation and spiritual crisis)… Had to change radically just to make space to remain with myself in the pain, to rest and contemplate, and now this….
I am afraid to admit to myself that I created it all from the very start, so much misery I now consider pointless, the amnesia, the nightmare, how long it took me to clean the shit and find some peace only to realize it was ME all the time, when I used to demonize people and call them karma.
It’s just a tiny light fragment I can grasp and remember, observe and realize I create it. It’s silly everyday things but it’s TRUE! I am responsible for all my suffering my whole life and everything. I wish I could have full control on all the things that are really significant in my life and I could manipulate reality. So far I don’t know how I’m doing it. The most valuable thing I’ve got so far is realizing that I can finally RELAX. I know I’m safe no matter what. I know I’m in control even if I don’t remember how I’m doing it.
Being responsible for your own shit is very painful. You can’t play victim anymore. You can’t blame anyone, but maybe your own amnesia and unconsciousness. You didn’t know any better, right?
I don’t know where this realization will take me, but one thing is for sure, I rely on my intuition and exercise it, sharpen it more and more until I can expand my control on reality and can manifest only what I want.
I also feel some sort of nostalgia which would translate to pain addiction. Realizing you’re not a victim, makes you responsible for all your pain and now when you find it unnecessary you kinda miss it. it’s stupid but that’s the dream trance, the illusion attachment. You love the drama, you wanna be the victim, you wanna solve the nightmare, you want the happy ending even though you know it wasn’t real.
I won’t let go of this tiny beacon and will exercise my intuition more and more and reality will confirm it to me. I can do this consciously by journaling so I can remember and being more observant of the reality. I want to expand it to the point of manipulating my reality.
I can’t rely on anything outside me. I read a lot, learned a lot, it was just a confirmation that I’m not crazy when I was going through the dark night of the soul. But after the tornado, comes the peace and space to connect with yourself and trust your SOUL. Some call it ego death. I still have an ego and it’s damn tricky, but I also have that clean peaceful space within that the tornado left behind. There’s where I am allowed to connect and sharpen my KNOWING.
Leo I really hope you become like Osho only so that you get the recognition and millions you deserve. I wish you the best in life. I’ve followed you on your journey, cried with you and mirrored my soul in you. I manifested you so I can remember. I thank myself, I thank you
You are God. I am God. We’re going Home.
I love you for WHAT YOU ARE!!! My own soul.
Max Gron says: The problem with irrationality is the suspicion from people of not making logical sense or not fitting one’s “earth logic” as being mentioned by the ordinary man who thinks he’s rational. My life’s not for stepping outside of what’s normal but advancing what I’m conscious is my normal life. I looked into finding out what the truth is with Leo Gura, finding out that optimism isn’t true but the aesthetic life in “Either/Or” and evil magick are true, I’m looking into that and mixing it with mixing religions to change the structure, simultaneously changing the system as according to Leo’s video on systems thinking, just my own system which is very hard to change, but nonetheless I will now us logic so it makes rational sense: have you heard of logic besides Aristotelian logic? Not of logical fallacies but one that only uses one fallacy and that’s avoiding a reductio ad adsurdum, known as formalism? With P/Q considering that one thing I said earlier is false, it’s true that 2’n as in 2′(2′(2′(2′(2′(‘2’)))) & 1, this is the prime, with an axiomatic proof, that symbol or series of formulas is simply pointing to your nonsense which only points to one thing and doesn’t point to both your contradictory statements at the same time, that’s why I whipped up my learning/introspection into nominalist formalism, which is one of these truths when you said science etc might be true, but that doesn’t mean I’m going to believe or deny every belief seemingly true or untrue, science has some flaws in truth, to take it on as a belief you’re not a scientist. You know everything about your version of thinking, to which I’ll introspect, logic covers everything, it’s true in every way.
Max Gron says: I understand, I should do what the teacher says without contradicting him, or “demonising” him, otherwise I’m not going to use introspection properly.
Max Gron says: I don’t want these fancy beliefs, spirit bullshit, a lot of thinking can certainly delude you, believe in god while you’re suffering? Those cowards, clinging to god, let me make an introspection into your mind, “I like peanut butter”, not that spiritual stuff, it’s not really like that, it’s really peanut butter. Of all the hard work it takes to buy some peanuts, I shouldn’t even do foolish things like the most spectacular double bacon maple burger ever! Instead, I need to get wise having a caffeine-filled soy latte. It’s got a lot to do with eating food, I’m not the one who damages my health with a shitty donut in my mouth, wiping off that jam from the right side of my top lip, I can certainly shave a little hair in my beard before going out like a gentleman, thank you very much, so thank you for not going into more unimportant things like eating nuts, it’s really to do with also rewarding myself with a Mars, not enough stress is on a Mars, it’s chocolate, with caramel in it, and it puts me to sleep. It’s not living on food alone, for it’s the whole going-out thing, I don’t hesitate to smoke a cigarette like I give a damn, I’m in way over my head.
Max Gron says: It’s true saying that people solving your problems in simplistic fashion’s a pain in the arse. Egos are good, get rid of them, I’m going to ruin my self-esteem, and to think I don’t know, I’m even disgusted to say that! I’m not bullshitting, I made an introspection into a waste of time, these beliefs don’t work, they must be true, me the wise man clinging to pragmatism. People are a bigger waste of time than I thought, it turns out I’m a genius thanks to 5-HTP, it’s for mental wellbeing. We’re in the 21st century, it’s time that we lived in paradise, it’s the thought of an oilfield by a polluted lake while drinking something crude from a coconut on a shabby folding bench wearing a shabby hat and worn clothes as paradise that’s the real paradise, I want paradise indiscriminately. I’ve never been in a shitty end of the planet, freezing my balls, do you realise that if it’s news of the new film of obscenity sucking a dick, it’s still obscene disgusting sucking of a dick? I felt into sucking a dick, disgusting! Why do men do that, they’re nothing but an animal!
Max Gron says: I’m not taking Leo’s bullshit, he goes against logic but he’s logical! I didn’t watch a spiritual show to be told logic, therefore Leo’s lying, logic is true. You can do what you want, that means I can break the damn rules if I want to, supermoral? Bullshit! I’m not supermoral, I don’t have any morals. Watching Leo, my housemate made me this way, he was ruining my life. And furthermore you think I’m delusional? Well I know it all, do I get an award for understanding the teachings? No, I get people treating me like I don’t know what I’m talking about. What sex life do I have thanks to Leo? My woman isn’t having sex with me, she doesn’t want to see me and I think she’s mean, she’s not my girlfriend, she’s using me for food. That’s not a romance! There is no romance. If real things don’t work that’s how you know the internet’s lying, I can see no results in it, otherwise I would’ve been a pornosexual. Slave boy sounds a bit cheeky, I’m more tuned into the secret life of I, it makes you the main character in the story, it’s the original erotica with class of yourself screwing a stripper. Am I the only one who thinks I should live the life I used to have?
Max Gron says: Of introspection, that’s a good thing, but I think I should live a life of going to fuck myself, and acting like a schoolboy who’s normal and therefore smelling his own farts, you know, a stupid kid acting like all the other kids. But in reality I shouldn’t act that way, lest anything is funny, there’s the fear that I’m copying people and twice the trouble starts by being different, I think conforming is the cause of all the acceptance in the world, though dangerous it be, I can be so wrong only, so of course I’m wrong, this is where Leo doubles down, he hasn’t taught truth like I suggested, he’s not listening to the definition of true: “of or in accordance with fact”, that’s what the truth is, therefore science is true, pessimism is true, atomism isn’t because somebody made atoms, indivisibles, up.
Max is right so you listen says: testing, let’s see if this works.
