Is there a problem with it - I said the same thing? This place is like actualized... same constant rhetoric.

Good You treat women like throw away objects. I saw your thread on actualized, you are not a very good person underneath it all, you are a self centered sort of introvert-esque kind of person. I feel so so so sorry for the women that run into you. I really do. I feel for them, because I have dealt with guys like you. You would legit be best off starting a journal away from it all. Not on either forum, but nowhere at all, where no one witnesses you, or knows of you. As far as avoiding - I generally avoid most men, but I will occasionally do what I please.

I don't deal with people telling me what to do in my spiritual path, sorry, you aren't my authority and never will be.

It is there... don't listen to these people they have not almost died. Souls exist. Reincarnation is true. Look for it yourself, don't ask...

Done with this place... it's the same shit here. Good bye,

Omivore. Tried veganism and it hurt my body.

You're weird around women... Maybe don't bother them anymore...? Like... what's up with this journaling around all these women you meet? Are we allowed to be honest here on this forum or no? Cause if not, I can peace out no problebo, but... You remind me of the pure narcissism that my ex would display, under the pretense of artistic ... improvement? But he was a moderate level artist who used his emotions wrongly, and thus the people around him... For the sake of mulling himself to oblivion... So... what are you even doing here, pretending to be a poetic spiritual... what, even... You're just like everyone else, you're not this artsy fartsy dude... it's an act. Are you going to get rid of that, or just carry over to here? Is that what everyone here is about? Carrying over the same stuff? Been there, done that. Hope you like my "poem". Grow up.

No, not everyone is. Some people like... live through their ego. They may be well meaning, but no enlightened. Not everybody speaks the truth. They speak THEIR truth, but not THE Truth, There is a difference... where did you pick this up from that everyone was enlighened and speaks the truth, this doesn't sound like something that was thought through completely, but speaks like, "I just wanted to post something, so here's a thing everyone has heard before that isn't entirely accurate, although you "could" say it's true, but are you at the ability to describe why it is true?" By true comes from self reflection, and people's behaviour tells me that, no, some people are not enlightened - there has to be something put in place to decide what that is - murderers, rapists, ect - no they aren't. If they were, universal Love would come through, and bad actions would have karmic consequences. Which they do.

Yes, there is - but that insight comes from my own personal journey. Check out the books Seth Speaks by Jane Roberts, The Psychic Being by Sri Aurobindo and the Tibetan Book of the Dead along with the Law of One by Ra. Books are friends, forums are frenemies, they won't give you the education you need to come to your own conclusion. We can offer little bits of info here and there from our own perspective. Read... read a lot. On spirituality. As much as you can. Meditate. Be present and learn from the present moment. Journal. A lot. This helps you get acquainted with your true self. Don't even listen to me. No one here is right... but YOU. Only your higher self, your true self, awareness God, whatever... can tell you what the truth is. We are all FOOLS here. YOU know the truth. So find out if you believe or don't believe. Even if I say it is true, don't trust it - just find what insights you can, and trust yourself.

What a beautiful name! I am appreciative of this warm sunny day when the weather said it would be rainy, instead I get to kick back and enjoy some rays.

You're welcome. Why do you hide? Also, to stay on theme, I appreciate my mom for picking up my prescription today that was nice of her.

I don't know - every time I become more conscious it feels like there are more questions to answer - it becomes infinitely more complex, although being in it is simple enough. I just... don't know.

Yeah you know, I actually agree - because when I get into a solipsistic state I can manifest things more - or rather I notice things that coincide with my identity much more. I've felt that state, where everyone and everything becomes "you" - but I was also at my most manic and in my worst place in life where the inner was spilling out into the outer, but not in a grounded way. It felt like a bubble, for sure, and maybe it was just me experiencing my soul creating the physical senses, not sure... I also agree that having an identity is very helpful in today's world - not having one feels very "floaty" and unnatural - yet I remember what it was like as a child not to have any identity. But when I felt the souls - there was no identity - no mania, it felt very natural and loving. Like I had returned home. I love that poem, it really resonates.

My dogs and cats live together pretty peacefully - not so sure about human sacrifice though, although it is a fascinating subject, you know Aztecs and all. Mass hysteria would probably work, like if something was causing problems for most of the world and it was a danger that was imminent, either people would band together or destroy one another. I totally get that, and will end up leaving this particular convo pretty soon, as I've already expressed that what has been said has been said and it's probably time to move onto other things. If not, this forum will devolve into just a place to talk shit about one person - when it should be used as a spiritual forum for individual and communal growth. I suppose I could take the first steps and just get on with it and make some relevant topics, journals, and whatnot - lead by example.

Step 1 - Sounds very reasonable. We are our own spiritual authorities, that's how it has to be. Step 2 - Reason is kind of up in the air because people have different definitions of what is reasonable and what isn't. Step 3 - You're leaving here? Aww, well I'll cya around if you come back here - I'm planning on making a more organized journal here. I can't go back there - I couldn't keep my cool and act decently and so this is what happens - I should start again here and let the people there feel comfortable in their own space, that sounds fair. Like, I should have been banned for some of my behaviour, I'm self-banning because my attitude got all messed up and sometimes the responsible thing to do is to walk away. I wanna be in a place where I put my best self forward to start with and maintain that. It's hard to do there for me for some reason, I always get triggered when I don't want to/mean to and that doesn't happen here or surprisingly on reddit. I've been able to put my best self forward there, too, and just be of service and offer advice when I can and that's the best way to be. The Actualized forum just has so many things that I don't agree with, people know each other so well that they've all gotten into fights with one another... you know? Maybe in two or three years if that place is even still around I might join with a new username and pick up where I left off - but I need more time, other people need more time - there needs to be improvement on my end and I think this place would be better suited for it.

How do we get to a point where everyone says what they need to about Leo or Phil, and we all decide to do productive things instead of arguing with one another? What steps would need to be taken for that to happen, so that everyone is at peace with one another and no feelings are too hurt?

You're welcome! I'm glad it helped offer some insight. ❤️

Same here with my NDE. I think the solipsists get stuck at feeling their own bubble, but don't know you can feel other bubbles, too, especially when you get close to death those souls will make themselves known. It feels more like carbonation, a bunch of bubbles all moving towards a singularity, but all the souls are united in the Now. We can reconnect to everyone through Now, it becomes like a siddhi.

That sounds right up my alley, I'll take a look. Good luck with your future projects.

Aww, you met a soul mate! You'll meet again, all paths cross at some point. Might be someone from your soul family that you actually know very well who was sent to help you on your path. I've met people like that before; it's like you've always known them but you just met. I appreciate people meeting soul mates, and learning from them and growing and feeling wonderful and grateful for their experiences.

Cool, that's good to hear and I'm sorry that people you know have been hurt by him. What kinds of things do you want to teach? I'd be interested in learning more about magick, different approaches to it and how it has helped/changed life.

Nice! I do, too - I tend to follow my intuition on what will work for me and what won't and it's usually pretty accurate. I'll check your videos out; sorry to hear you won't be sticking around, I wish more people were interested in the paranormal and occult. I'll leave you a message on one of your vids. Yeah, Leo probably could use a bit of calling out, to be one hundred percent honest, I had watched one of your vids like, a while ago and you made some really good points that can be hard to see as red flags when you're sitting in the middle of it - I just never really got into his work too much so I kind of just used his forum for shadow work and did my own thing; so I don't really have an fan mindset or anything. He needs to professionalize his approach on his forum, and there's not much more to be said about that and I don't think the kind of people who frequent the forum there will tell him the truth - he seems to know he has some stuff to work on, and maybe the videos will help.. It helped me, in the past I got trolled once and I just took their advice that they were trying to hurt me with and applied it. And I had a spiritual awakening, because people that are oriented to see what is wrong in others can really see your worst side for sure, I've gotten into that as well in the past when I was heated about someone's behaviour - I'm actually here to work on that 'cause it's still ego even if you're right. He probably does need to be called out, but the person to do it will probably have a shadow, just like I did, about that. When I did it, even if I was right in the moment, it felt wrong and dirty because I still have work to do, and I knew it came from my ego. A part of me wanted to hurt the people I was calling out and a part of me really felt that it shouldn't be me, because of the position I was in - did I ever even have the right? No, not really. I suppose that... I feel like calling him out could help. It helped me when I was ego-stricken. It always does; honesty and the right mirror can be a godsend in disguise. But doing it to another - that's also a shadow on the part of the person calling the individual out. I just wonder if it is worth the time? It could be; some of his comments were really pretty bad. But it pulls you down into the mud, too. Been there, done that.

Nice, not yet, I've just been keeping up with the thread. I know the kind of people you are talking about; people who don't use their intent properly but for ego-reasons and they get in over their head, because they don't work on the darker aspects of magickal practice - it turns into this one sided love and light process - or kids who practice black magick that don't know what they're getting into... or people who don't know the different terminology, ect, ect. But it's part for the course, most of us are newbs. I'm relaxed, just smoking a bowl and enjoying writing. Sometimes I am not relaxed, so I'll be honest about where I'm at. I'm chill, but also wanting to discuss other things - and just don't want the thread to turn into a fingerpointing mess - it doesn't look good for introducing other people here if the most active thread is one dissing Leo - and if we just keep at it, like for days... weeks... what then? At some point there should be more things to discuss. And I don't wanna end up being a hypocrite by point out Leo's flaws, and then not working on my own stuff - in which case he is less flawed than I am - so I feel kinda dirty implying that there is something "wrong" or needs working on with anyone because I am so not perfect and so average that I don't have much of a leg to stand on. That's cool that you work with magick, though. I'll certainly check out the video in a few. ❤️ Not a lot of people in non-dual circles practice it, so I always feel a little out of the loop. Cheers.
