Disclaimer: Some of the advice provided in these videos could be dangerous to your psychological or physical well-being if applied carelessly. By listening to & applying this advice you agree to take 100% responsibility for all consequences. You agree to waive any legal recourse against Actualized LLC, Leo Gura, and Actualized.org staff. This is not medical or psycho-therapeutic advice. Leo is not a licensed therapist.

Warning: Spiritual work is inherently risky and dangerous if misapplied or misunderstood. Actualized.org teachings are not suitable for people with serious mental disorders such as: suicidal depression, schizophrenia, psychosis, bipolar, drug addiction, or other psychiatric or medical conditions. Leo's teachings assume you have a stable mind and life. If your mind is dysfunctional or ungrounded, these teachings may lead to a deterioration of your condition and even suicide if misapplied. Self-help and spirituality are not substitutes for professional treatment for such conditions. If spiritual work is causing your life to unravel in unhealthy ways, discontinue the work until your mind has stabilized and you are safe. Actualized.org teachings are very advanced and can easily be misunderstood and misapplied. Nothing Leo teaches ever promotes physical self-harm. Any time Leo talks about “facing one’s death” he is NOT talking about suicide or physically harming your body, but rather ego-death and spiritual awakening. Never confuse these two things.

Warning: Psychedelics are inherently risky and dangerous. Only use psychedelics if you are willing to take 100% responsibility for the consequences. Do not take psychedelics if you are too young, too immature, on mind-altering medication, or if you have a mental disorder. By listening to Leo you agree that Actualized.org is not responsible if you misuse psychedelics and injure yourself or others. If you decide to use psychedelics you must exercise extreme caution and carefully follow safety protocols. Leo’s use of psychedelics is always done with extreme caution and attention to safety. Treat psychedelics like a loaded gun. Never use psychedelics chronically. Never take psychedelics in high doses. Psychedelics will not effortlessly solve your deep psychological problems. The less grounded your mind is, the more selfish you are, the harsher psychedelics will be on you. Psychedelics can create deep existential crises. Do not take psychedelics unless you love the idea of deconstructing your mind and reality.

PoMo is formulated on the motte and bailey fallacy concerning absolute or objective truth. You honestly can't say western science is as valid as indigenous reasoning when it comes to analyzing the understanding physical world. If you buy postmodernism's motte "there's no objective truth" then you buy the bailey "science is an arbitrary story and reiki is just as valiid - healing crystals at 534Hz work!". That's the whole point of science - generate knowledge about objective reality. I'm under no illusion that equations are reality - that is, I'm mistaking the map for the territory. But surely as evolved creatures - maybe - just maybe a more complete picture will be painted given enough time. Foucault is wrong - "politlcal power or social construction" doesn't determine if "1 + 1 = 2" Power is a one trick pony - totallizing and simplistic explanation of reality. Even Noam Chomskey thought 60-70's era french intellectuals were obsessed with the notion of power. Don't get me going on Alan Sokal and the Grievance Affairs Hoax - PoMo is gibberish.

I like you Leo. Love the solipsism video - I'm a meditator and often wonder what it's like for ground state consciousness (must be awfully lonely being the only game in town). But I'm going to have to disagree with you on the utility of PoMo. It's a net negative.

I'm shocked by the changes there have been to the people I know who consider themselves to be educated. I understand that this is a complex subject, but I will watch until the end to try to see if I might have been given the wrong impression based on how it has affected their worldview. Before we push towards the future we should all recognize that an imperfect being cannot create a perfect world. We have great examples of our history and there is a common approach to how we hope to live our lives. Have we been living in a way that reflects an appreciation to being alive on this planet? If you live your life and are honest with yourself you know whether or not you have lived to your fullest potential.

Also a alert call to people see that the seers,profeths and visionaries of the past have much to teach. Think with me, we as species lived much more in Paleolithic Minds than Modern ones. Check this Podecast. Mainly the Part 1 and 2 of For Intuitives.

Logic or rationality is simply a measure of continuity of ideas, in other words it measures whether or not an argument is self consistent. However an argument can be self consistent or valid and yet founded on false assumptions. Logic does not determine truth but rather determines if your conclusions are consistent with your initial assumptions. I think this subject gets into the relative nature of perception itself and recognizes the function of language as knowledge representation and inasmuch is relative to an individual’s frame of reference or paradigm. I’m not sure I agree with the notion that there is no such thing as an absolute reality however, due to the relative and dualistic nature of language even if one were to grasp it, it would be impossible to communicate. I do however hold that there is an absolute reality which encompasses all perspectives because I have experienced through psychedelics however I’m unable to comprehend it through the mind or communicate it. I’m sure you have as well which is part of struggle with integrating these revelations that come in heightened states of consciousness. It’s like knowing the world’s biggest secret and yet you’re incapable of telling anyone.

Even though I think more people have experienced what you’ve experienced about enlightenment than what your videos suggest, I feel that not many people have really grasped retained exactly what it is as it is nearly impossible to do so while functioning mainstream society, which nearly all of us are a part of. Though you have been able to explain it the most clearly out of anyone I’ve come across. It’s too bad I feel it’s starting to slip away as the majority of people seem to be following fake romanticism. You’re right, we are in the dark ages. Merry Xmas.

If u pay attention to the comments in some of he's episodes and other podcasts he's appeared on , you can clearly see he has came into harm and been tortured for he's opinion .. it's a sad world when someone can't have a opinion without upsetting the deluded , wake up people !

I am, therefore i think. Consciousness is the irreducible given. Is that not true? To say there is no absolute truth would require an absolute truth to affirm it. Like someone saying that God does not exist. This would need omniscience to establish the statement, the set of all knowables, and by definition that would be the starting place of an omniscience. Therefore a paradox. Gödel's incompleteness theorem is itself part of the incompleteness, thus also a paradox.

Hi Leo! I came across the idea on your forum that God is Imagination and everything is imagination. And I don't know where to write a comment, so I'll write here. And here's the thought, what if this Imagination imagines something absolutely absolutely infinitely insanely brilliant, well, for example, a video game or reality with all the complexities unimaginable for us, or for example take some color, for example green, but infinitely infinitely green with infinite shades, and infinitely another green and at the same time green, and infinitely bright with iridescent, transparent, voluminous, embossed and infinitely everything that is even impossible to imagine, and infinitely other colors more than 7 colors, but infinitely many, and an infinite variety of marvelous combinations and iridescent them and the most incredible ways and meanings. And the same with sounds, with aromas, with touch and taste and infinitely other ways. And all this is infinitely insane and brilliant and there are not even words to describe it. How do you like this idea? It seems I even surpassed God, I challenged him 😆
Why did I choose colors in the first place, well, because I was lucky and for a split second I saw a slightly transcendental color, and it just blew my mind, it charges so much and so many emotions and thoughts, and like pure perception. For example, of course this will already be an interpretation and words only spoil them, you need to see them yourself, for example, white, I slightly saw when it was more than white, it caused me childish laughter, and also like a constant birth birth birth, I don’t know how to explain, and many other things. Green is super naturalness like being... Orange is heat, strength, joy. But words are offensive to write, it’s just zero, I wrote them so that there would be at least a little idea of ​​what I’m talking about.
I wrote something similar to the neural network so that he would imagine himself in the role of a superbeing and what he would see contemplating something like this, he replied that it would be an incredibly breathtaking spectacle for research and to know the very essence of being in color.
And yes, I also play chess and quite well 😀

I have been contemplating a lot the nature of our world. All this infinite intelligence which is all around us - that's not random or blind evolution. Everything is carefully calculated to perfection. That's God. And because everything is God - including nothing, this means we are all God and always have been and always will be because God cannot be something different than Itself by definition. That's not a curse because why the perfect being would like to be something different than Itself?

And the most difficult thing for me to accept - that God loves everything equally and infinitely in a way God allows the existence of the greatest Heaven and the greatest Hell. And I got triggered because it is extremely difficult to accept all the unimaginable pain and suffering to be absolute love because they contradict our desire for endless survival. But the Devil is any limited form which wants to be eternal like the real highest identity - God. That's why solipsism is true - because there is one being - God which is playing multiplayer with Itself. One player playing all games simultaneously. And I am also It. And life is pointless because there is no point to achieve anything because everything is already perfect. It's so beautiful that I can finally accept my physical death as a limited being and embrace my infinite nature. This was the goal all along. God is whole, God is perfect, God makes no mistakes and we are God no matter the individual suffering or bliss it is divine. Knowing this I will live the rest of my life as this finite player, played by the perfect being in the perfect game of Love.

Have you heard of the work of Donald Hoffman? He's a cognitive psychologist (currently). He argues that evolution pushes us away from seeing reality as it is, with it's survival pressures. To be good at surviving and reproducing, passing on your genes and continuing your species, you have to be likeable, to agree with the majority as much as possible, and to be highly adapted to the situation you're in (planetary and environmental conditions, specie characteristics, availaability of resources, social status, etc.). The process of adaptation, according to him, will enhance your senses and skill to perceive reality in certain ways, and dull down any other perception or ways of thinking. And since we exist today after long evolutionary process, Hoffman states, all of us would be highly specialized and conditioned to perceive the worlds in certain way. To the point, that spacetime itself, together with all our notions of objects, properties, movements, changes, and so on, would be just a highly specialized construct...

By the way, I think you should research autism some more. You're mixing up ideas of low IQ and inability to do STEM jobs and activities with autism. Autistic people are neither less intelligent, nor less able to learn or engage in technical skills. In fact, it might be just the opposite. The greatest scientists, like Archimedes, Newton and Einstein, have all exhibited autistic traits...
