That would be such an advanced state that I don't think anyone has that. Certainly not your average yogi. A human cannot function at the highest states of consciousness. There's just no way you can be that conscious and still do daily activities like eat food, clean your house, or read the daily news. -
Yes, I can do that. Although recording video really burns up my laptop. Not ideal for me. For the Curt interview I recorded myself with a pro camera to give him sharper video footage. Not streamed video.

At mild doses salvia is excellent. But it is so easy to overdose it. An inexperienced noob will definitely overdose and have a freakout.

For the same reason I would still take a psychedelic even after I've realized God. You can always discover deeper aspects of God through tripping or meditation. Also, yoga puts you into blissful states of samadhi. They may like basking in those states. That's what yogis are known to do! If you're gonna be a yogi, you might as well bliss out when you can. It's really no different than taking a psychedelic to unite with God, just done manually. -
Sure, but it is gross. No one is going to sustain a diet of insect meat. They are minor snacks at best. It is easier to get people to just go vegetarian and eliminates all your ethics issues.

20. If you take a high enough dose. Have you done it?

Of course. But this assumes a level of sexual self-control that few men have. In order to treat women properly the man must not be starving for sex. That is a tall order these days.

He does not respond to me. I think I offended him. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Maybe 2-3 years in.

I put it like that from their POV. That is how they see it. But also, I do have a worldview. Everyone has some worldview, even if you are Awakened.
-
No. These are decent people and I will speak for myself. They will just be asking questions about my worldview. The only misrepresentation possible is if they cut out parts of interview.

Yes, of course that is huge. Although psychedelics can also demotivate yogic practice because no amount of yoga will ever be as potent as 5-MeO-DMT. Psychedelics did slow down my manual efforts. But the cost was worth it. Psychedelics give crucial understanding, insight, and experience that cannot be gotten any other way. Yoga cannot give you that depth and variety of understanding. -
I mean it was not effective. Meditation needs to be done seriously for it to be effective. Otherwise you are just wasting your time.

People can have special genetics that make them exceptions to the rule. But the rule is that psychedelics will not permanently change your baseline state. However, psychedelics have other subtle permanent effects. I am not permanently in a 5-MeO state, but 5-MeO did change me in permanent ways. I don't think he is tricking himself. But I think his level/state could be higher than it is. So I think he would benefit from yoga even if he's already in an elevated state. There's infinite room at the top. Genetics is the biggest factor. But also various factors in how your mind is structured and your lifestyle and life choices. If you are out whoring every day then it will probably take longer. Although not necessarily. Not if your genetics are great. The biggest factors are genetics and your passion and effort in practicing yoga. To overcome bad genetics just practice harder and with more passion. Although for some people no amount of yoga will work. So try other methods too. Find whatever works for you. -
It is hard to behave online. I empathize with this. Because our moods are sometimes up or down and we can post 24/7. Sometimes I'm in a weird mood and post weird stuff that I would not normally post in a more sober state of mind. But since I have access to the forum 24/7, posting is too easy, so regrettable stuff sometimes gets posted.

Cuisine. Every culture is built around food in some way. Every culture has its staple traditional foods and its glorification of certain foods. God. Every culture corporates God in some way.

Of course men use women for sex and this hurts women. But women seek out casual sex too. They just hide it to not appear slutty. Women also hurt men. Selfishness hurts others.

It is much faster but temporary. Pranayama raises baseline state very slowly. Ideally you can do both. Burn the candle from both ends. -
Yes, that is why I am forced into it. Because I have a responsibility to keep this place high quality. So I have to ban unhinged people who can't help stir up drama and toxicity. Otherwise this place would turn into constant drama and toxicity and all the good people would quit. I have to make this place for good people.
-
I don't even like puzzles.
-
I wish it happened more. Consider yourself lucky. You get free trips. Two for the price of one.
-
So many it is heartbreaking. People just don't know how to behave themselves online. It hurts me every time I am forced to ban someone. I don't want to ban anyone. But they leave me no choice.

Even so, it's too heavy. She's not just gonna forget that as mere dirty talk. You can't do that kind of crazy intimacy and then expect to just be friends. FWB means less intimacy. That is the tradeoff. You are too greedy, you want the crazy intimacy but none of the commitment and responsibility that comes with it.
-
This is a hairy one. I would go black knight under the black bishop. Then push black H pawn up as far as possible to break open white king's pawns. Hard to calculate beyond that but I would risk it. Something should work.
-
Jesus! Def don't do that for FWB arrangements. If you talk about babies with her she will expect you to put a ring on it. Lol. That's only reasonable. You fucked up there. Set clear expectations from day one. Don't pull surprise plot twists on her. Don't over-promise stuff. Don't love-bomb and such. Play it chill. FWB require very chill and sporadic.
