@Garuda You have a shitty epistemic attitude. Not acknowledging how your own mind distorts genuine scientific inquiry.

@tecladocasio Find out for yourself.

Those are your own expectations. No guru is obligated to meet your scientific standards in a lab like a rat in a maze. And you have no idea how many materialization have been demonstrated or repeated, because most of them would never get documented due to the very cynicism you're displaying. If you expect not to see something, you won't see it.

@Garuda God has the power to materialize the entire universe, so it's very reasonable to expect that humans are able to tap into it and harness it. Don't be so cynical. Extraordinary healing is certainly possible and materialization is within the realm of possibility. It's not so farfetched. And just because some people in the past have been fakes does not mean the fundamental phenomenon is bogus. Just like with enlightenment, there have been many fake people claiming the existence of God, yet God is still real. Once you realize that God is real, almost anything becomes possible. Be open but also grounded. It's a delicate balancing act. Notice, I did not just accept the video at face-value. To me that video is ambiguous and not definitive proof. But it is interesting.

With this knowledge you created the entire world. After you have this knowledge, nothing else matters. Reading people's minds is peanuts compared to what I'm talking about. I'm talking about reading the mind of God.

1) It's not clear what that video is showing. 2) I don't know if materialization of objects is possible, but it's certainly something to keep an open mind about.

I found this interesting website: https://5-meo-dmt-malpractice.org/open-letter-concerning-abuses-by-octavio-rettig-and-gerry-sandoval/ Which documents some problems with how certain shaman's provide 5-MeO-DMT. I'm not sure if it's true, but it was concerning to me so I thought you guys should be aware of various dangers that might be involved when doing 5-MeO-DMT with a shaman. Be careful. To be clear: I am not taking any definitive stance on the allegations made. They could be phony for all I know. This is just something to keep in the back of your mind if you plan on working with a shaman.

@WorknMan That's exactly why I love plugging. It overcomes this problem by smoothening the trip so you can really understand what is going on, not just be blindsided and take away nothing. It's important to understand what the trip is doing, how consciousness functions. Otherwise it just becomes a wacky dream-like experience.

You are talking about reading people's minds. That may be possible but that's not important. Omniscience is a much more radical thing. You can become so conscious you will understand how you invented Albert Einstein, for example. Lol. It's very radical and non-linear.

The basics of what I'm saying doesn't contradict classic nondual teachings of course. It's just a question of how deeply you realize what God is. God can understand itself at deeper and deeper levels. The highest truth is that you are God. But how deeply do you understand what that really entails?

My point about the 2008 recession was that the banking industry and Wall Street were not properly regulated due to anti-regulation stance of the conservative/libertarian administration. Those industries are still not properly regulated and exploit and steal from many Americans. Wall Street is very corrupt and also corrupts all our elected leaders with their stolen and exploited money. This is not good for raising the consciousness of Americans. Wall Street and giant banks are allowed to be breeding grounds for devils. It's utterly corrupt and exploitative. No conscious society would allow such a thing. Most people do not fully understand how corrupt these systems are. And Trump only adds fuel to the fire by appointing these devils to his administration.

I look forward to comparing both breakthroughs.

There are many ways to reach Absolute Love. Psychedelics are not required. But they sure make it easy. I reject the notion that consciousness has to be "earned". You are God! You don't have to "earn" anything to know yourself as God. Of course it's not a magic pill. You still need to do lots of other work on yourself. I have not gotten deep enough into Kriya yoga to see what kind of awakening it produces. I trust they can be powerful awakenings. I think Kriya is very powerful. Of course, that is omniscience. God is all-knowing but in a far more radical way than human knowledge. Knowing and Being are one. God knows everything by being everything.

@mandyjw Those conservative values you extol got us Trump and Bush. Just think about that. 200,000 to 1 million people killed in Iraq. $3 trillion dollars wasted. Worst recession since the Great Depression. Working on a farm is good stuff. But good government it does not make.

I am aware of his approach. I am more than happy with my approach. And they won't have to contradict.

@whoareyou Well you gotta hit a breakthrough dose on each, which will not be the same dose. Did you hit a breakthrough on N,N-DMT?

Ah... speaking of lovable nondual assholes

You are turning into a nondual snob.

I have read all of Martin's books, LOL. I introduced him to you guys! Again, don't take me for a fool.

What I have personally experienced has taken me beyond all teachers that I have studied. This is not to denigrate other teachers. There just comes a time where you go beyond what can be taught. At peak omniscience I become aware of limitations in the teachings of even the greatest masters. For example, Ralston does not teach about Absolute Love, and this is a big oversight from my experience. To not teach Love is nuts! It's totally fundamental. I cannot hold someone who denies Love as having reached the highest level of consciousness. And I like Ralston very much. But I like Love more. To be clear, I can still learn from teachers. There are always many minor things to learn. But the deepest truth must be gotten direct from the source: yourself.

Look, you are not the only person here. Actualized.org needs to be appealing to ordinary folks. I don't want to just be preaching to a choir of freaks and nondual assholes.

That's exactly what happens with lots of psychedelic use. Each trip produces a big breakthrough. Then you drop back to baseline, but not entirely. And with each such trip your awareness expands, expands, expands, gradually, until one day you find yourself very wake effortlessly. It's a process of both sudden and gradual awakening.

That sorta spoils my motivation to teach though. I need the illusion of a student to teach.

It would freak you guys out and make me look insane.
