Many people who awaken are driven to it by intense suffering and dissatisfaction with everyday life. Suffering is the greatest teacher. Once you suffer enough, you'll be ready to say: "I give up! I surrender!" Suffering DOES create seeking. But of course most people don't know about enlightenment at all, so they suffer without knowing the ultimate solution. Suffering is not needed to complete the hero's journey. It's just that in practice, if you have an easy life, you will get hypnotized by the comfort and probably never undertake the hero's journey to begin with, nor will you persevere past all the challenging obstacles. I've never suffered more than during meditation retreats. You have to be willing to go through some self-inflicted conscious suffering in order to awaken. Awakening is not the path of least resistance. It is like training for the Olympics. It comes with sacrifice. You must surrender your easy, unconscious life. There is a higher drive within the ego which seeks God. It's like a faint whisper amidst a sea of egoic noise. That faint whisper is what ultimately leads to awakening if you listen to it and act on it.

@GafaRassaDaba Try Kriya yoga instead. It's much better for calming the monkey mind. Yes, meditation can and (really) should be enjoyable, in the beginning it rarely is.

Yes, the biggest cities are usually much better. The whole point of a city is massively concentrate people. Which is ideal for dating.

Step 1: do the fucking practices Step 2: for 20-40 years

Why drink water from a dirty sidewalk puddle when there are yawning glacial lakes around?

I would not feel infinite love at the dentist.

Prepare your setting better. You should already had prepared snacks before hand. See, all of that moving around and playing around is distracting you from going deep into the trip. It's okay for now as you are just getting acquainted with shrooms, but serious tripping requires you sit still and focus. Falling alseep is not good. You've barely scratched the surface. Higher doses will get very twisted.

If even half the stuff in that article is true, it's a serious problem. Of course I have no idea if that article is true. You'd have to research further. As soon as I hear that someone is starting an unstoppable organization to awaken the world: that screams cult to me. That thing is gonna fly off the rails and cause more harm than good. Like I said, I see big red flags here. Her videos can of course still be helpful. Cults are often founded on helpful teachings. Can anyone actually verify if some of the stuff in the article is accurate? A properly woke person should not be engaging in such nonsense.

Don't hold your breath

Hmmmm.... lots of red flags here. I thought she might be better than that. Glad I released that Cult Psychology series. Lots of cultists wannabees around lately. BTW, can I interest you guys in my new line of enlightened hot-shorts? Guaranteed to activate all your chakras.

@Bobby All of Creation is made of distinctions. There is nothing but distinctions.

@Good-boy Even in a cave you won't get freedom from your mother, LOL

There are certain social standards which are useful guidelines for determining health/dysfunction.

Of course it's easier to be more confident when you are more physically attractive. Just like it's easier to start a biz when your daddy gave you a $100 million inheritance. But that doesn't mean you can't start a successful business from zero. Be self-made. Stop looking for hand-outs from the universe. You must play the hand you've been dealt. It's all inner game.

The Tour has been delayed as I need to focus more on my own awakening. Maybe next year.

Fuel costs are pretty high for RVs. Don't forget, parking your RV in an RV park will cost $30/night at least. Living in a decent RV is actually more expensive than a one bedroom apartment in Vegas.

You are the entire Universe and the Universe cannot die, it has existed forever. You will just change forms. When you are older you can become directly conscious of this truth. For now, ponder the possibility that you are not just a human body.

Joe Rogan is wrong. Male and female is a conceptual category. Just because something is a conceptual category does not mean it isn't useful. The whole point of concepts is that they are highly useful for survival, since you yourself, and life itself, are a category! This issue goes way deeper than Rogan can fathom. Not only can man and woman be deconstructed, your very existence as a biological being can be deconstructed. But of course, no one wants to go there. Biology itself is a category. Difference itself is a category. Even Joe Rogan is a category!

@F A B What are you? What is reality? What is form? What is perception?

@Scholar If you gotta ask, then you don't.

@EternalForest Stage Green also censors stuff, but for different reasons. Hence the whole political correctness culture war. Blue censors out of Puritanical moralism. More broadly-speaking, the ego's job is to censor truth.

No, I know from experience that people react to 5-MeO-DMT very differently than me. I think difference in brain types accounts for it. I have a very metaphysically-oriented mind and personality. Most people are just not like that.

@MM1988 Enough of your Incel propaganda. Go meet girls in real life. Stop keyboard-jockeying with Reddit losers. What girls care about is your personality. They aren't as shallow as you. If you'd actually talk to some girls, you'd realize that.

Good, but not gonna fly. Politics is a dirty business.
