When you meditate on the breath, don't inhale any deeper than when you're not meditating. It is a mistake to exaggerate your inhales when meditating. Just keep it normal.

@4201 There is only so much closedmindedness we will tolerate here. I am long past the days of bending over backwards to accomodate every arrogant fool who stumbles into these teachings. If you want a serious person to teach you, then show that you are serious about learning. An advanced teaching demands an advanced student, not a child.

@Cosmin_Visan Banned Be here to learn.

@Cosmin_Visan You are much too arrogant for this work. Stop fucking around. All your theories are wrong.

@JayG84 Stop it. None of this is awakening. Go do some actual work towards awakening, not this tail-chasing.

Yes, exactly. Keep digging your own grave.

It's simple: you project your own ignorance onto them. But of course your ego cannot handle such a possibility, so you just double down on your projections.

Yes! Good quoting. Fighting with the ego is just more ego. Analogous to how judging yourself for being judgmental is just a doubling of the mistake. Which is why I said that Self-Love is the highest teaching. Hating the ego doesn't work. Loving the ego works better. If the ego is acting out it's only because it seeks Love which it has been denied. So give it some Love to pacify it. The best way to get the ego onboard with killing itself is by showing the ego that "killing itself" just means Infinite Love.

@JayG84 It cannot be explained logically.

The human cannot appreciate the trans-human. Yes, from the human perspective reality can seem unfair, cruel, evil, depressing, unloving, etc. But that's just the human's limited and self-biased view of reality. Of course! A human is an illusion because everything is an illusion. You want something beyond illusion but that is impossible since illusion is everything. Yes, you are a toy and you have an expiration date. Enjoy it while it lasts cause it will be over very soon. Yes, there is a limited perspective which does not see perfection. The point is to try to break out of it. When you are suffering, the suffering feels real. That's the illusion of it. And it is tragic in sense because if you had more consciousness you'd laugh at the suffering. But you don't so you cry. You get trapped in the illusion -- until you escape. If you don't want to suffer, then don't be born at all. Consider the following: if I gave you a choice between being born but suffering vs not being born and not suffering, you would choose to be born. Which is why you're here. Ta-da! The possibility of suffering is what makes life exciting. Otherwise life would be too fake and easy, like a cartoon. It doesn't dismiss suffering. It fully recognizes the strong illusion of suffering from within every limited creature's perspective. But what can it do about it? To eliminate all suffering is not an option because that would kill every creature in the universe. Suffering is the mechanism by which creatures survive and learn. Again, consider this: if you were the parent of a child and you were given the option between A) your child never experiencing pain vs B) your child experiencing pain normally as humans do, you would choose option B because choosing option A would mean your child dies within a month of being born. It's not fair from the human perspective. But it's fair from the Cosmic perspective because you will live through all possible lives and experience all the highs and all the lows. If you were born in a war-torn country this lifetime, in some future lifetime you will be born as a Brad Pitt. It's fair when you realize that God will experience every possible experience that could ever be experienced, and they will all balance each other out. God will experience all the greatest evil and all the greatest good. And thus God will come to know itself fully. You can't know yourself until you've experienced the full range of what you are capable of. Which happens to be Infinite. Consider this: How could God know what pain is, or what heartbreak is, or what torture is, or what rape is, unless God lived through all those experiences? So here you are, living through all those experiences so you could know them intimately, not just theoretically.

It's not enough to just get your metal fillings removed. You must then spend a year or two doing rigorous detox protocols. Then you can expect to feel better. Merely removing them is likely to make you feel worse, because removal causes more mercury to leech into your body.

No, I'm gonna tell you that you are.

Yes, ego does identify with those things to some degree. But it's not so much a problem unless you let it spin out of control. Ego can understand that it is God. And in a sense that's correct. It is God. Just don't stop there. Keep going deeper. This is a long journey. My ego knows it's God, but it doesn't become too narcissistic about it. You can think of it as an expanded ego. A trans-human ego. This kind of thing only becomes a serious problem if the ego tries to monopolize God and tries to put itself above everyone else and stops doing any further consciousness work. Continued spiritual practice is what keeps the ego from solidifying itself too much. The more I trip the more humble it makes me. But of course I can still get carried away if I'm not vigilant -- self-deception is always lurking in the shadows, ready to pounce.

@Striving for more Dude, YT is a freemium service. You expect all of YouTube's content to be delivered to you without ads for free? What entitled fantasy world are you living in? $12/mo to remove ads is a bargain. No other fancy features are needed. If you are too cheap to pay for an ad-free experience, then suffer through the ads -- that's the cost of your cheapness. Those who value their time and mind will gladly pay $12/mo for the ad-free option. If your time and mind isn't worth $12/mo, you got a bigger problem.

And everyone is within you

Consciousness likes to dream. That's what it does. Why would there be any limits upon what one can dream? The nature of dreaming is that it's unlimited. You are still judging good vs bad. From the POV of Infinite Consciousness all dreams are valid, interesting, and part of the whole. God is not going to exclude stuff nor eliminate stuff just because a human doesn't like it. You can't really appreciate how unlimited and powerful Consciousness is unless you experience some of the nightmares it can dream up. Your question is basically the age-old question of: If God exists, why would he allow evil? To which the answer is, God sees no evil, but you do since you are attached to finite forms. Reality is far too profound of a thing to make logic sense to a finite and fearful human mind. To understand God you must surrender all your judgments and attachments. God is infinite imagination, but you are asking God to be something less than that because it makes you uncomfortable. Well, sorry, but God has bigger priorities than you personal comfort.

Yeah.... This is why people don't take the idea of God seriously anymore. Gotta be real careful if your mission is to truly awaken people. People are looking for any excuse to dismiss and discredit you already, and you're playing right into their hand by acting like an unhinged lunatic. In theory, image shouldn't matter. In practice, it's almost all that matters.

@Thought Art You'll only appreciate its use when you get truly stuck in hell.

You wish Careful. You may regret it. This stuff is no joke. You must treat psychedelics with utmost respect and moderation. This is not the place to act macho and prove how tough you are. Psychedelics will ALWAYS out-macho you. Consciousness is not all Love and paradise. There are realms of consciousness so horrific and sinister that you will forget that Love or God even exists. There are realms of infinite horror.

Except there is no one to teach but myself.

I don't know, but you don't want to reach that point. Trust me.

You ain't me.

If I went any further with 5-MeO-DMT, I'd be dead. I seriously thought I'd be dead by the end but somehow pulled out. If a normie did that, they would surely end up in an insane asylum. You start seeing visions that are impossible to even put into words and they are more life-like than normal life.

If it's just once, that's no biggy. But if he's doing daily for a prolonged time, that's when things get hairy.

So did Conor say what he's been smoking? Cause if it's back to back days of 5-MeO-DMT, I can see how he's starting to lose his mind. I've definitely been there. It starts to feel like madness. Gotta know when to lay down the pipe I hope people didn't get the wrong idea from my 30 days 5-MeO retreat. For the record, you should NOT do that! It's fucking madness! You will likely end up committing suicide. I only did it in the name of science.
