Yes. However, low development means it will easily get misinterpreted as some belief system or bias one holds, like a Christian seeing Jesus. Low dev minds tend to have many conformist beliefs which will cloud the psychedelic experience. Are you intelligent enough to drop all your beliefs? If you are, then you are smart enough for this work.

I don't like political news, I like political science and political history. Lots of deep lessons there.

They both Christians and read Hawkins due to that. I shudder to imagine how they will misapply it to rationalize their twisted MAGA views. Does PBD even fathom that Trump is a 30 on that scale? Lol

What in the fuck is that fake AI thumbnail? Jesus Curt!

If you enjoy it then it is worth pursuing. Nothing I teach is so technically difficult that you guys can't get it. High school classes were harder than what I teach. The difficulty of it comes simply from requiring such radical openmindedness and reliquishing your biases and beliefs.

Of course they can! A dog can have an Awakening tripping on shrooms.

@CARDOZZO You forgot the most important one: Xeno Love

Infinity contains infinite Absolute Infinities. And that's just the beginning.

He wrote The Beach book. It's very good (the film).

Yes! People have no clue how much depth and richness to God they are missing. The depth is staggering. The depth is not described by any spiritual teacher or teaching. Shallow levels of Awakening are very easy. Deep levels require decades of cognitive work.

No. Marketing is bullshit.

Lol. The only one Curt cornered is himself. The mechanics of Infinity are so fucking advanced that Curt has no business even speaking to me on that topic.

I have no knowledge of that. That's not what I mean when I speak of Alien Consciousness.

Alex Garland is great. He did so many great films: The Beach, Sunshine, Annihilation.

@How to be wise

Not really, but thanks for sharing. I will work on Xeno Consciousness.

Something like that. It is impossible to predict how long it will take for mankind to crack the nut of AGI. Might be 5 years, might be 100 years. Nobody knows and anyone who says they know is kidding himself. This is where humility is important.

The YouTube recommendations algorithm keeps getting worse and worse, suggesting shallow crap. We need to crowd-source this problem. Let's begin keeping a list of the best, unknown YouTube channels. I'm always looking for high-quality channels related to philosophy, psychology, political science, sociology, history, documentaries, geography, travel, etc. I'm looking for serious channels with mature people who talk about mature subjects. Not drama, not culture wars, not clickbait, not entertainment. Channels with interesting, high-quality content. Channels that are educational and add to our understanding of the world. These channels usually have fewer subscribers, less popular. If you know of such channels, if you find new channels of this kind, please share them here. When you share the link, please write a few words about what the channel is about and why it's worth watching. I will share the best of these suggestions on my blog as well. Thank you. Examples of the kind of channels I'm talking about: https://www.youtube.com/@TheDissenterRL/videos https://www.youtube.com/@WHATISPOLITICS69/videos https://www.youtube.com/@SoftWhiteUnderbelly/videos https://www.youtube.com/@thestoa/videos https://www.youtube.com/@IntegralNaked/videos https://www.youtube.com/@LetsTalkReligion/videos

I would grab the black knight with white's knight, then pin black's queen with the white rook at E3. Black should be in a very bad spot after that.

Hardcore yoga and meditation can take you pretty far without much cognitive dev. But most people will not do it. You don't need crazy technical cogntive dev, just basic notions I teach are enough. You don't need to get into all the fine detail that I get into for myself. I get into extra detail because I teach this stuff and because for me it is a passion. If you have basic construct-awareness that is good enough for normal folk.

There is a distinction between Awakening and cognitive development. Awakening is much simpler than cognitive dev. Cognitive dev is the rational, post-rational stuff. You can get Awakening by just sitting for a long and literally not thinking. Cognitive dev requires lots of careful thinking. Basic kinds of Awakening do not require cogntive dev. But the deepest kinds of Awakening do.

After a certain point, once you've studied the field of politics and you've understood all of it, paying attention to it becomes counter-productive. Yes, it is good to take a break from politics. Not forever, but for periods.

You don't need to feel the chakras. Just feel the energy flowing up your spine into your brain. I don't see how psychedelics would help here. You can do psychedelics but without the expectation of it helping your Kriya practice.

Not at all. Scientific knowledge does not help with Awakening AT ALL. It actually hurts. Of course. You think Jesus was a math nerd? Haha Most Awakened people are not scientific. The reason I talk about science is not because knowing science is needed for knowing God, it is to highlight the epistemic mistakes of science, to help scientists think better, and to free your mind from the shackles of science.
