Also, Leo wasn't quite truthful with his portraing of events. He said:
That's not true. "They" weren't banned and then decided to run "their own community".

@Forza21 Here's a little thought experiment for you:
Imagine that you could verify if others have an experience of their own; you could "swap" POVs and see the world through their eyes.
But to be able to swap with them, you would have to pay a price:
You would have to completely forget who you, Forza, are.
In other words, you couldn't swap with them and still know "I am Forza", with all your memories etc.
You would have to 100% become them.
Now here's the question:
When you are them, who are you?

What is the experience of, the witnessing, the observing of, understanding?
What is it?
How could I understand what understanding is? It must be a mystery.

I'm going for a walk right now and got to witness an absolutely gorgeous sunset. When I tried to capture it, it was frustrated. It can't be put into a photograph. Much less could I talk about it adequately.
The best pointers, I've concluded, are not descriptions, but encouragement to go outside the house and witness the astounding glory of reality for oneself🙌🏻

Yes! I thought sharks were about as scary as dragons or unicorns until there was a sighting of a bullshark in the river I like to swim in. 😆
I don't live anywhere near where there are sharks, but.. aren't sharks actually dangerous? They can eat you, right?🤔😂

I had a funny moment when I took mushrooms for the very first time.. I was very anxious and heard all kinds of stories about psychedelics triggering psychosis in people and I was afraid that something like that would happen to me. So I took like 1-1,5g and went into the woods with a good friend, I was very restless and extremely alert, always watcing how reality changed around me, how the colors changed, how the sounds changed, etc. And I was watching my thoughts extremely observantly, because I was afraid that they might suddenly turn into psychotic/uncontrollable thoughts... So we walk down that path through the forest, when suddenly I heard a murmur, seemingly coming from nowhere / inside my head. Just an incoherently murmuring voice, I couldn't hear what it was saying... quietly at first, then louder and louder. It wasn't one voice, but two. And I couldn't understand what they were saying...
I thought "fuck, that's it. Now you've done it, now you're hearing voices, that's it, you're crazy, why did you take mushrooms?!" And then I turned around and saw:Two women were just walking a bit quicker behind us, and were talking to each other.
Fooled by thoughts😂 from then on, it was quite beautiful

2. And …the one that “freaks me out” is when I get “hit” (like a deer on the road) or better said the body seems to get “wrapped whit this white light”. This one kinda gets me in to a “panic mode” and I don’t know what to do about it, my breathing is getting faster and I kinda snap out of the meditation “because”…. Well… its hard to explain🤣
I've noticed that this white light only appears when I don't intend to meditate, i.e. when there's no intention at all. It's only when I'm relatively deep into meditation that it ever shows up and at first, I also used to be freaked out by it; and as far as I could explain, the reason you freak out is because it only arises whenever you deeply let go the feeling control / intentionality of the meditation - and of course, the only reason why "you" let go of intentionality / control is precisely because "you" don't let go!! You don't intentionally let go of it, which is the only reason why it can arise in the first place, you know what I mean? try to observe this next time. Maybe it's the same for you, I can only speak from my experience.
All you can do is go easy on yourself. The thing is, there's nothing you can or can not do about it. When you try not to freak out, it will disappear. When you freak out, it will also disappear. When you try to keep it, it will also disappear. So the best advice I can give is ease yourself into it, keep letting go. That's real letting go: letting go of letting go.
it's extremely difficult... because it's impossible lol😂😂 but that's the thing, keep trying.

Nope😄 that's not what I meant, I mean something much more spooky😉
Yes, when you are them, you are them.
But who are you? When you are them? Who is looking through their eyes? Through your eyes?
