Mindfulness with labeling, pure concentration, or Kriya yoga. You can literally just sit and concentrate on an object for 60 min a day. Doesn't matter what it is.

You have to understand how bad it is. Most people will never reach enlightenment. Especially so for neurotic people. The solution is serious concentration practice. You can listen to all the Ekhart Tolle videos, but it won't do jack for you unless you discipline your mind. The people who tell you its easy are the ones who already have the focus and discipline naturally. But that ain't you. You will have to work 10x as hard as them.

At first I was more committed to life coaching and blogging. But then once I saw the potential of YouTube I went all-in on that and got very committed about that. It wasn't luck. It was serious marketing work beyond what people understand. Saturation was much less of a problem in 2013 when I started. Today is harder. But then again, I see new channels succeeding even now. You just need a great idea, passion for it, and some marketing savvy. Keep in mind I use to be an online marketer, so that background helped me a lot. I remember back in 2013 when I told myself, "If I can just get 10,000 subscribers, that would be my dream come true and I would be happy." Lol Well, things would obvious have unfolded very differently. No way to know. In business you have to be very opportunistic and ferret out the stuff that works. It's not hypothetical. Whatever works you work with. If one thing fails you try another, and another, and another, and another, and another, until finally you strike gold.

It's certainly possible to escape, but you'll have to be very ambitious and hard working. It will also require the passion of a Life Purpose. You can become such a creative and productive person that you generate millions of dollars of value within a 10 year period, thus buying your freedom. But most people just aren't serious enough to be that creative and productive. They don't have a compelling enough vision.

"Hurt people hurt people" << Great title!

Locking this because way too much mental-masturbation starting to happen here. Stop thinking about awakening. That ain't it.

@Dand No need to wait. In theory you can thin coconut milk with water. Never tried it though.

This is what Turquoise sounds like:

Guys, be careful posting examples in this thread. Turquoise examples are very rare. Just because something smacks of God or spirituality doesn't make it Turquoise. Double-check your example against the Turquoise list of values.

@The observer Stop splitting hairs and do the work.

Wow, thanks ya'all. You are a creative bunch of rascals. I'm touched.

You are God. It's just a question of how conscious you are of this fact. How deeply do you dare awaken from your dream?

You guys are getting way too pedantic. These teachings are pointers and you are starting to debate the pointers, as if sorting out the pointers will get you any awakening. It won't. The mind will forever spin its wheels. Go become a roll of toilet paper. Then let's talk. Way too much smartassery and debating going on lately. Every pointer will have its limitations and point where it breaks down. Get what the pointer is pointing to and then let it go.

Smoke some salvia, become a roll of toilet paper, and then tell me that. You are not free to interpret a kangaroo as something else. It is precisely whatever it is until it is not. It's complicated. You are both. And it depends what state of consciousness you are in. I've never denied that humans are limited while in their human form. But you can become other forms, or even formless. You are not limited to the human form.

Saying what?

I would not use some cheap liquidizer. It's gonna harm your lungs. Terpenes will work for DMT as well as 5-MeO.

I dissolve freebase in a few drops of vinegar and a few drops of light coconut milk. The coconut milk is to reduce any chance of burn or damage of the butt tissue. Works great. Don't use heavy coconut milk as it is too oily and clings too much to surfaces.

Of course. And it could not be otherwise. Which is why I constantly make disclaimers about not believing me, doing the practices, and validating everything for yourself. This work is inherently deceptive and dangerous. This cannot be avoided. And I can only lead as well as my current level of consciousness allows me to. I'm a limited human. So keep that in mind.

Bingo!

You should use the highest purity organic turpenes to dissolve the 5-MeO so that you don't damage your lungs. Cheap low quality oils cause that vaping lung disease.

It's possible to make your own vape pen carts using 5-MeO-DMT. It's quite awesome. One puff and you're sky high.

What happened to last night's dream?

It CAN be dangerous. So can meditation, self-inquiry, and yoga. Spirituality is an inherently dangerous activity. Which is why most people don't do it. You should treat 5-MeO-DMT like you would a live chainsaw.

Any teacher has the capacity to lead you astray. Because there's no way for you to know for sure if the teacher is guiding you to the highest Truth. To know that for sure you'd already have to have the highest Truth yourself, which means you wouldn't need the teacher. See my video: How Authority Works Any authority I have was given to me by you. As God, you are the only authority in the universe. But you are in denial about that. So you vest authority in others.

Keep in mind that "death" here isn't limited to physical death. Death is a conceptual thing. It's both the body and mind that are afraid to "die". A lot of fear is more about the death of the mind than the body. The mind is afraid to give up all its attachments. So a Muslim is afraid to leave Islam because that would be like death in his mind. A big part of him would "die". Death is really about loss of attachment to some particular form. And if you have zero attachments to form, you cannot die.
