@Shadowraix Venom can ONLY be smoked/vaporized. You cannot consume it any other way as the smoking burns off the other stuff in venom, which is what you want. Who knows what kind of nasty toxins are in that venom. From what I understand the Bufotinine will mostly burn off or get overshadowed by the 5-MeO so the % does not really matter. You'd just want to start with a really small dose and work your way up inch by inch. Smoked 5-MeO is extremely fast and hard-hitting.

For fuck's sake, Google has the answer to every question humanly imaginable. If only you would stop being lazy. I read a news article yesterday about how a woman used Google to search for "how to kill a person without getting caught" She found her answer and killed her two babies through suffocation. That's how powerful Google is. Of course she got caught cause she should have used DuckDuckGo and Tor instead.

Yes, the problem is that many people who say "all is one" have not ACTUALIZED that statement in their own life. They've taken it on as a talking point. It is not true in their direct experience of life. So actually they are lying to themselves. Doing spiritual work requires us to be honest about where we currently are. We have to stop and ask ourselves, "Is 'all is one' true for me?", and the answer will often be No. If you are not enlightened, it is a bad idea to go around talking and acting as if you were. If you have not directly experienced God, it is a bad idea to go around talking and thinking God exists. The truth is, for you, God does not exist.

@11modal11 Re-read your opening post and count how many times you said "I", "me", "my". All of that is ego. That whole post is ego playing drama queen. You have not reached meaninglessness, because clearly you are creating a lot of negative meaning here. What is required is more consciousness. It's sort of like you've wounded the ego, not anywhere close to killing it, and now it's pissed off like an angry hornets nest. A little bit of consciousness is a dangerous thing, as they say. The solution is go back to the basic practices and ground yourself in high quality nondual theory and mindfulness work. You are trying to do this too fast. It does not work that way. There are many facets to consciousness work. When you try to jump ahead to the end before you are truly developed enough to handle it, you just create a massive ego backlash and nothing sticks. Ground yourself in core daily practices like meditation. Train yourself to do it consistently and with joy.

Do not take Iboga by yourself, and unless you're a veteran of psychedelics. You could seriously harm yourself otherwise. It's like you're asking to play with a live hand grenade.

No, that is not what I mean when I say that brain does not exist. I mean something far more radical. I also mean your body does not really exist. Nor does "the brain" serve the metaphysical role you believe it serves (the ground and source of existence). The brain is a part of the mind. There really isn't a brain because all there is, is mind. Sure, although I would emphasis building up consciousness more than willpower. Mediation/yoga will do both.

A) That's a really old video, prior to my various deep nondual insights like brains do not exist. B) "The brain" is a relative construct, a symbol within a network of symbols we use to make sense of the world. It has a certain relative meaning, in the same way that the word "country" has a certain relative meaning even though there is no such thing as "a country" in the world.

This issue keeps coming up again and again and I keep telling you guys the same simple solution: Psychedelics! Stop all the mental masturbating and go experience an altered state of consciousness. Then you will understand what this work is about. It's NOT what you think it is. It is like you're a child asking, "But what are the benefits of an orgasm? Logically explain to me why I should stick my penis inside a vagina." Do it and see what happens.

125ug of LSD takes me into full God-mode. But this is not going to be the case for the average tripper. They would probably need to triple that dose to get a similar effect. Tolerance to psychedelics can vary quite significantly from person to person. And one's level of cognitive/metaphysical development plays an important role in how deeply you trip, from what I can tell. My trips are always extremely profound, beyond most trip reports. I'm not sure why this is. It feels like psychedelics were designed specifically for my brain/mind type.

@How to be wise I had an enlightenment experience in my sleep last night. Mostly what yoga does for me though is raise my baseline level of consciousness throughout the day.

No, they are different. Meditation is about stilling the mind to an extreme degree. Contemplation involves using the mind.

Lol The only sad thing is that you are not at Turquoise.

@Socrates Sounds like you got some poor LSD or you have a high natural tolerance. Try doubling the dose and things should get really interesting.

@Hamilcar Again, you are overlooking the obvious. "The process" is DIRECT! The content IS the process! There is zero distance between rendering and the thing displayed. Because reality has infinite power, it does not require a computational process. There is no process. There is only the end result. Stop thinking of reality as a computer simulation. It is NOT that. It is direct, instantaneous, magic. There is nothing behind the scenes. What you see is all there is, so to speak. The problem is, your mind does not know how to make sense of reality this way. You are used to analyzing it conceptually into a linear chain of cause and effect. This is fantasy, not reality.

Consciousness is EVERYTHING. Every activity that ever happens is consciousness. So it's totally active. Consciousness is not other than everything that is happening all around you at all times. Cars zooming down the highway << that's consciousness being active! You are overlooking the obvious: the dream IS the creating. Everything you see IS the experience of consciousness creating the dream. The mechanism of creation is not hidden behind the scenes somewhere. It is TOTALLY, RADICALLY direct! You are seeing God's creation process every second. You're just overlooking it because you're expecting something elsewhere. Your fantasy of God's creation process is obscuring awareness of God's actual creation process.

No clickbait titles. If you don't like censoring you should go browse 4chan. Drink in all that 4chan wisdom. This forum is moderated to prevent devilish arrogant egos from spreading ignorance and corruption. Clickbait titles are the work of the devil.

@PhilGR Sounds nice and clear. The only question is, is that really what you want?

@Max_V Sounds like your domain of mastery should be teaching, or spirituality, or writing. At least for now, until you find something better. Don't get too cute with stuff like: I'm going to master myself. Yes, of course you will. But you also want some tangible marketable skills which you can use to build a career around. When you commit to something like "I will master teaching" or "I will master writing" or "I will master speaking", that is a very powerful and actionable intention. It sets you on a solid and clear career path. When you say something like "I will master myself" I picture you 10 years from now living in your mom's basement sniffing your own farts. Because it's such a vague and abstract intention. What tangible things are you gonna offer the world once you've mastered you? The world is not gonna pay you to sit there basking in your own self-mastery.

@Meretagh If you don't know your life purpose yet, your life purpose should be to find your life purpose. Which should be enough to get you seriously interested in reading books about LP and doing research. Do you want to live a passionate life? Yes? Then how can you not be passionate about reading a few books about how to create a passionate life??? That's like wanting to be a millionaire but then saying, "Oh man... I don't want to read these books about becoming a millionaire." Think it through. Connect the dots. As I said in the Life Is A Maze video, you're in a maze whether you like it or not. So you might as well get curious and passionate about doing research to figure this maze out. You got something more important to do? To be successful at life you gotta love learning about how life works. Why don't you love learning about life?

@Outer Apple's power cords are so shitty and overpriced that I want to start an Anti-Apple Power Cord Cult.

@Thanatos13 Dude, stop arguing your position and open your mind to the things being taught. You are a like an arrogant freshman who thinks he knows more than the professor teaching the class, trying to school the professor. It's just naive arrogance. I am pointing you to things you have clearly not become conscious of yet. I'm not here trying to brainwash you into my dogma. You just haven't done enough inner work or research to understand the complexity of these issues yet. This is not personal, or a debate. You just need to be willing to learn and explore new perspectives. That is all. There is no need to get defensive. I am here to help you. You are not being asked to believe anything here on blind faith. You are being invited to inquire deeply and openmindedly into the true nature of what meaning, value, and morality are. Not what you think they are. Not what you want them to be. But what they ACTUALLY are: constructions of your mind.

@Thanatos13 That IS what you were talking about, you're just in denial about it. Which is what I was pointing out to you. But you keep clinging to morality as truth without being open to other possibilities. So they conversation is useless. You hold morality as an unquestionable dogma. That is the issue here. Love is a facet of Absolute Being. It's not a moral issue but an existential one. You're conflating love and morality.

Hallucination is a very specific word which has a precise definition: "An appearance without substance. A purely mental phenomena which does not correspond with any external objective thing." That's reality.

@lmfao That's right. What you are intuiting the is infinity nature of reality. That's because it really is infinite. Which means that you will never pin down the Truth with finite symbols or thoughts. Cause/effect is a linear, dualistic, finite scheme which cannot get at the whole of reality. It can only get at finite, limited pieces of reality. It will always be just a partial map, never the whole territory. The territory is truly infinite, nonlinear, and non-causal. In fact, you can have a direct insight that every object in your room has an infinite chain of causes leading to its creation. I once become conscious that my Apple laptop power cord was created by an infinite chain of causes. What a mindfuck that was. To this day I cannot look at my power cord the same way again. Every object in your room has actually existed for eternity.

@Jonty What you are really objecting to is not the physical manifestations of this issue but how it makes you feel, the suffering it causes. How you feel about a situation is definitely created by the way your mind evaluates or interprets it. And this you can definitely change with lots of consciousness work. You may not be able to change how your son behaves. But that does not matter because the key is to change how you feel about how he behaves. If you were more grounded in yourself your sons action's -- as bad as they might be -- would not bother you nearly as much, and you would also be more resourceful at finding an external solution, like for example, helping him to pinpoint the root cause of his problems. What consciousness will teach you is to let go of control and to surrender and accept terrible things gracefully. The idea that you can always control every bad thing in life is foolish. It just cannot happen because fundamentally the ego is not in control of anything. Control is one of the chief illusions which consciousness work tackles. You have to learn to accept things more. Counter-intuitively, this will make you more powerful, not less.
