  1. Past hour
  2. @Emerald has extensive knowledge of sleep paralysis and possibly a YT video on the subject.
  3. Sleep paralysis is interesting and fun for me. Good opportunity to do an out of body experiences. Not so mystical. No panic. I know it's just a phase. I love it.
  4. Appreciate it.
  5. @Psychonaut MXPCP compared to 2 FDCK how much of a difference is there?
  6. Moving this to the Health subforum should help reduce fantastical thinking.
  7. The 21st century media and information ecosystem is a pool of shit. The entire information ecosystem is completely hijacked by interest groups that have as a sole purpose supporting politicians that maximize theft, corruption and devilry. Both alternative and legacy media are rotten to the core with corruption and devilry. The amount of money that is being poured by the thieves into both alternative&legacy media in order to shape public opinion is staggering. As soon as someone clean and honest enters politics, the obedient media lackeys make sure to totally destroy that person. When a new party is founded, that is clean and has an anti corruption genuine agenda, the thieves throw billions into making sure the party splits into multiple factions so that the thief parties have a weak and fragmented competition. The thief parties pour billions of public money into both alternative and mainstream media to drag in the mud the clean party so that they flood the zone with shit thus confusing and disheartening voters. The 21st century will be seen by future generations as a century where the media was equivalent to a septic tank full of shit. From now on, I will never consume any kind of media whatsoever. I will construct my own worldview from scratch without any corruption and devilry by the so called "influencers".

  10. I was going through a hard time during that period, so I believe it was some kind of entity that visited me, perhaps a “spirit guide” that some claim everyone has. Sometimes during sleep paralysis hallucinations can arise, but for me they’ve always been very random so I can tell it’s a hallucination But this particular instance, it was so specific, and relevant what she said, that I’m sure it was not a hallucination . Also she said something that is said within non duality, how “reality is love”. It makes me feel that non duality is true It’s like how some people can meet entities during astral projection. It seems these kind of states can gain us access to another “realm” of reality where we can gain contact with non human intelligent entities It’s very cool! My tip is to remain calm during sleep paralysis, because if you’re scared you’re more likely to have scary hallucinations, but if you’re calm I think it opens possibilities for more positive experiences
  11. True Vacuum I was indirectly asked not to make my comments overly complex. So, simply put, True Vacuum (it's actually very similar to Consciousness, even if you follow a purely intellectual and intuitive approach). A long time ago, I asked an AI to imagine itself as a hundred-dimensional being for fun, and if you saw the True Vacuum as a direct experience, describe it. It gave a very curious answer, beautifully, I would say. And yet, its answer doesn't correspond to the correct description, which is understandable.
  12. I'd say Ground news is an interesting source for news. They collect news from different sources and list them left and right wing so you can see the difference in viewpoints.
  13. There are so many video games I want to play. I played 10 min of Plague Tale Requiem and was blown I way. Then I was like shoot I gotta play innocence first. It's on discount I can get it for really cheap because it's Black Friday. But fuck, idk if Il have time to play it. I am spending my whole day tryna get myself to a decent level in life, and I feel like I already have too much to balance on my plate. I don't really nor like to do anything for enjoyment I'll be real, everything I do is just to increase the likely hood for success. The thing is, idk if I am even doing the right things for success. Right now I am focusing on getting to baseline. For me baseline level of success is Learn a specific language I need to know Have some income Be in healthy shape Be psychologically stable Have had some experiences with women Manage school (I am accomplishing this now) And I feel like maybe I should focus on getting money first, because it will act as huge leverage to achieving all the other goals. But at the same time, I am not in a position where I NEED money to achieve all the other goals, because I am financially taken care of by parents to an extent. So maybe thats just an excuse.
  14. It’s beautiful. You never feel more alive than when you reach that kind of state.
  15. Thanks, man. I hear you. There’s a lot of depth in what you wrote, and I respect it. People forget where this stuff actually comes from and why it was done in the first place. Most of it gets lost in modern noise. And yeah, I know very few can handle those levels. That’s why I don’t push anything on anyone. Everyone has their own capacity. I’ll check out Filinov like you said. Appreciate the message.
  16. Very profound even if subjectively you cant control reality the differences are extremely profound. Wouldn't you want to know if Mars existed independent of your Consciousness or not.
  17. When I started, I came from a couple of years with almost no socialization, partly because of the pandemic but also because of voluntary isolation, barely doing anything other than watching Leo’s videos and doing personal development. That, combined with autism, made for one hell of a foundation. Pickup and game theory were probably the last things in the world I needed at that time, but I still went all in on daygame. I basically operated like a robot. Nearly always opened the same way, saying that I would have regretted it if I hadn’t said hi. The conversations were often about the basic boring get-to-know stuff, what they were doing out, their work or studies, etc. The conversations usually lasted 5-10 min. I definitely improved and got way more comfortable and confident. I got fewer and fewer quick rejections and more and more frequent numbers (always numbers, never Instagram or Snapchat), but the numbers were usually flaky, of course. The more we had in common, the better, but you could never really tell which ones who would actually date me. Some of the women I went out with, I had really quick and boring/bad interactions with. The interesting thing about the natives is that the interactions with them were just as good, if not even better, than with the foreign ones. The big difference was what happened afterwards: they would often reply when I texted them, sometimes in a really positive way, but when I finally asked them out: Silence. Every single time. I had two wingmen at the time, and they were much better than me. They also had the exact same results with the natives, so I’m pretty surprised you have different experience. Is your experience from daygame or nightgame? I’ve done some nightgame here too, but that has been a complete disaster. I can’t dance, and it doesn’t seem any more appropriate to approach in clubs or bars than during the daytime here, and they’re also way more hostile and defensive then, especially on behalf of their girlfriends. If I ever hit it off with someone and things look promising, you can be 100% sure that one of her friends will think I’m a rapist or a serial killer or something, and drag her the fuck away from me.
  18. Seems odd to me to split reality into two buckets. When you conjure the construct or allow it to slip away, there’s the relative. Both are experiences that share the same background. They’re both just conceptual toggles.
  19. And yes when done right you no longer need food, it then becomes a choice of pleasure or play. You are nourished in another way
  20. Well done. 14 days is impressive, and what you shared is very important, unfortunately most will always miss the deeper truth. Its really easy to take substances, but do this right, you'll realize something else altogether. This is ancient purification ritual. Rama, Buddha, Christ all taught this to their closer disciplines and circles, because you have to be ready, especially to do it alone. A brother once did 40+ days, but most people shouldn't exceed 3 - 5 without a guide. Dr Filinov has an excellent book on dry fasting. Thank you for sharing
  21. Relax. If I were possessed by a dangerous idea, trust me, you’d notice. I’m pretty sure the only thing haunting this thread is your overthinking.
  22. @TimStr You’re talking about dry fasting like you understand it, but it’s obvious you don’t. You’re looking at it from the surface, in a really one-sided way, and that’s why your take comes off so limited. There’s a deeper side to the experience you’re not considering at all, and if you want to criticize it, at least understand the full picture first.
  23. What I shared was just my own experience, not advice and not something I expect anyone else to follow. And honestly, this forum openly discusses psychedelics all the time, and those carry real risks too, so it’s not like risky topics are new here. I’m not claiming dry fasting is safe. I’m simply describing what it felt like for me. Whatever people decide to do or not do is entirely their own choice.
  24. Successfully playing the field, whatever that entails, is definitely preferable to whatever this is. And it’s certainly preferable to how a lot of relationships turn out. Not all, or even most, but many. Of course, the people to whom this may concern would never be aware of it, let alone honest about it. And I would say this advice about being chivalrous, work hard, pay for everything, etc., isn’t just traditional anymore. Nowadays it has come full circle, with many feminists propagating it, masking it as "treating women as human beings" or "making up for your privileges" or "paying for the work and effort I’m putting in," to paraphrase. The irony
