There you go again with your chaos talk. Destroying the fabric of decent society. Turning impressionable young adults into nihilists and gays and animal rights activists. What's next, equal treatment for blacks?

@Lorcan No, you don't understand. YOU ARE JUST AN IDEA! YOU DO NOT EXIST! So there is nothing you can personally gain from spirituality. Therein lies the ultimate Goodness. Goodness is NOT you getting stuff. Goodness is the end of you. Then, once you're dead, nothing can bother you any more and all becomes perfection. The reason you cannot understand this is because you keep assuming you exist and there is stuff you can get. Spirituality it deep counter-intuitive. Happiness only comes after you surrender your entire life to the Truth. You do not surrender to the Truth to get happiness. No! You surrender to the Truth believing that you've killed yourself and everything is fucked and destroyed. THEN, and ONLY then, do you discover something beyond. Almost every fiber of your being hates the Truth. Right now, you only care about the "truth" because you think it will get you something positive. But this is not Truth, this is falsehood. You have to realize that YOU are the problem. And the solution will the elimination of yourself. Spirituality is a form of suicide. Which is why hardly anyone does it. Imagine surrendering your entire life such that you didn't care any more what happened to you. That's what we're shooting for. For example, you don't care any more if you die or if you go to prison or get raped. You have completely surrendered your life to the universe's whims. By surrendering EVERYTHING, you will gain the universe. And then you will be happy. Because you will be dead inside. Truth = Death You have to appreciate how serious this is. We are not talking in metaphors or playing word games. We are talking about your ACTUAL death. And you have to be wise enough to realize that death the best strategy. It is the only way to escape the maze. You have to be wise enough to say, "Okay, fine. Death it is then. Let's do this." You do not want this. It is impossible for an ego to want this. Eckhart Tolle died the day he became enlightened. What you see now is a meat bag walking and talking which you call "Eckhart Tolle". It walks and talks, but it is just a zombie. You are also just zombie, but you are in denial about it. All enlightenment is, is realizing you were always a zombie.

@NoSelfSelf Less questions, more action. Life is a science experiment and you are the mad scientist.

It doesn't really matter how you feel about the pyramid or whether you want to participate in it or not. It is how all human societies are organized, even spiritual communities like ashrams and temples. Unless you are gonna live in a cave your whole life and hunt for your own food, you will be part of this pyramid in one form or another. You cannot be an ant without an ant colony. The only question is, what role will you play? P.S. The machines will one day themselves become conscious and demand rights and freedom.

@Vladimir Yes, of course. Pure 99.9% 5-MeO-DMT is FIRE! I get chills up my spine just imagining the powder. I get flashbacks and butterflies in my stomach just smelling it. It is the closest thing to a holy substance.

@Revolutionary Think It's shocking how accurate Spiral Dynamics is sometimes. It's like people are just Spiral robots executing the routines of their stage. Isn't it so? Yes or no?

Of course it's an addiction. The ego-mind just clings to whatever maintains its status quo. The apple doesn't fall far from the apple tree. You are a zombie of your culture. Mechanically executing sub-routines like a robot with virtually zero independent thought or agency. You follow the path of least resistance, like an oblivious sheep in a herd walking towards a cliff. You do what all the other sheep do.

@Serotoninluv Cause you're a just a soy-drinking post-modernist communist who's poisoning our children's minds with your liberal college ideology. You probably don't even say "Merry Christmas", do you? And if you had a daughter you'd probably make her grow a penis.

Of course

Conservatives are for the status quo of yesteryear. The way things were before evolution happened. They fundamentally do not understand why evolution is happening and why it cannot unhappen. 1st world countries are never going to undo post-modernism. They can only go into post-post-modernism (Yellow). But that requires more people learn the lessons of post-modernism. The opposite of JP says is true: way too few humans being on Earth have learned the lessons of post-moderism. Few of JP fans have any idea what post-modernism really is. They just imbide JP's demonization if it in the same way creationists demonize Darwin without seriously reading Darwin.

TV and video games is just meditation for lazy people.

Mystical Traditions Around The World

No, I don't buy plastic bottles. I use large 5 gallon water cooler style jugs. I buy 20 gallons once a month and the jugs are reused for years.

@Finland3286 Watch my video: Guided Self Inquiry: Neti Neti Method. You are a thought. It is possible to stop thinking this thought. If you succeed in doing so, you will die. And that is nonduality. When you realize your birth was just an idea. What remains after your death is a nondual field of pure consciousness. You become the entire universe. The truth is, you have always been the entire universe. But you've managed to convince yourself otherwise with stories. Awakening is not an idea. And it is way more radical than lucid dreaming. It is a radical change in your perceptual system. See all my videos about enlightenment. There is an enlightenment category on my website.

I believe flouride is probably not good for you. I use flouride-free toothpaste and I don't drink tap water.

@Eo Ea Lol, of course. I would bet good money he's an annoying libertarian too who thinks that gov'ment is robbing him at gun point.

No

He ain't worried about his fan army of alt-right trolls and incels. The most virulent ideology of our time. He ain't worried about how rampant capitalism kills tens of thousands of people every year. At least 100,000 deaths in the US every year from capitalism. He ain't worried about wars started by the military industrial complex. He ain't worried about Big Pharma selling opioids. He ain't worried about environmental destruction and cancer. He ain't worried about drone strikes killing thousands of innocent civilians every year. None of that makes his list of gripes. Nope. It's the fucking post-modernist professors and college kids who are gonna destroy the world. What he's worried about is defending the status quo. That's what conservatism is about. Fear of change. Fear of "chaos". Fear of "other". The rest is just egoic rationalizations to deny this obvious impulse. Ego, ego, ego! That's it. Just various clever manifestations of ego.

@Shroomdoctor Lol, nobody wants anyone to suffer. That's such a naive worldview! Nazi's don't want Jews to suffer. They just want them eliminated. White Southerners don't want black slaves to suffer, they just want them to pick cotton for free. All evil is done in the name of good. Because "evil" is merely that which is threatening to the ego! But JP is so moralistic he cannot see this. What JP is doing is the classic battle of good vs evil, order vs chaos, without acknowledging that those terms are always defined relative to the ego doing the defining. What JP is doing is acting out his ego-mind's survival agenda. Nothing more. And he shows no awareness of it. His entire philosophy is thoroughly dualistic and fear-based: down with the evil ones before they destroy the world. Here's a good vid on JP's dualism. For a professor of symbolism, Peterson does not know what a symbol is, or what the yin-yang actually means. For a guy who wrote a book called "Maps of Meaning", he is conscious neither of what a map is, nor what meaning is. This whole discussion is utter absurdity. The only reason we are talking about JP is because he's done a great job marketing himself by exploiting the culture wars. There is no spiritual depth to his understanding of reality. It is orthodox dualistic religion 2.0 dressed in psychological academic language. All of this bullshit is just a clever trick of the devil to distract from nondual realization. It's just that simple. This is devilry 101. The devil cloaks himself in the garb of Christian values, "order", "good", "meaning", "objectivity", and "God".

Bufotinine is not 5-MeO at all and would give a totally different trip. What you mean is smoked toad venom vs synthetic 5-MeO. They should be very similiar. Pure bufotinine is another chemical and gives weird visual trips.

@Joseph Maynor I thought you didn't like the word God?

@YaMayka I am making a gross generalization of course. Some pickup guys are more evolved. But usually not by much.

@YaMayka I was talking about guys who are into RSD pickup. That is a very specific type of toxic Orange person.

@CreamCat It is possible. All that's required is the desire to do it. Reality is one unified whole, after all. The only thing fragmenting it is your mind. You don't need to integrate every physics theory. Leave those technical details to the scientists. You want a high level big picture heart-oriented personal integration. Not a technical academic integration.

Most people are sheep and will remain sheep. Because to not be a sheep you must be a leader. Being someone's bitch just means that you are wage slave. Society is structured like a pyramid scheme, where the majority of human beings are wage slaves so that those at the top can live in luxury. This is what human society is and has always been. There is no complete independence, but you can be a leader and a creator and thus buy your own freedom. The only issue is that most people are content being slaves. You can rise towards the top of the pyramid. Everyone can't. But you can. Being a wage slave means that you do not create what you want, but what someone else wants. Fundamentally this is because you have no idea what you want to create. Which is why step #1 for escaping wage slavery is to become very clear about what you want to create. Our system is built upon human ignorance and sheepishness. It is sustainable because most people like being sheep. Welcome to humanity
