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.

I would say focus on improving your material situation. You are too young to be worrying about Awakening. You have time. I didn't start meditating till like 27. And that was shit meditation worth nothing.

Very similar to Jaimungal. Ontology, epistemology, limits of science and rationality, God. They want to understand what Truth is. Well, sorta. I already discussed Truth with them a bit and they were intrigued but also don't see the significance of it.

Dude, don't freak them out. They need calm rational things, not a blast into cosmic horror.

These days only Vit D and A. A is good for eyes. D is good cause I don't get a lot of outdoor sun.

Yeah, it's a good vid. Old school wheat was probably legit.

What?? Nervous, no. But I cannot control what questions they ask. If they don't ask good questions the thing may be a disorganized mess. My videos are very organized for a reason. This material is too nuanced to cover in a random manner. Things need laying out in certain sequences. But that is not how interviews work. So I have to adapt to their questions on the fly, and they don't really know how profound the material is. But this is an issue I already faced with Jaimungal. It will be an issue in any interview. Which is why I have avoided interviews for most of this time. The material is too serious for casual interviews. But I will make the best of it, so no excuses. I am looking forward to it. I will do by best to make it good and deep. They are decent people so there is hope.

Different kind of judge. Judge as in the ultimate decider. Judges are supposed to be wise, not judgmental. A judgmental judge is a bad judge. Look at a video of a real judge in action. It isn't judgmental. It is tough but fair.

It's entertainment, so do whatever you enjoy. Entertainment is not supposed to develop you.

@UnbornTao It has lemon and cinnamon oil. Def no mint in Coke.

I will need to make a Part 2 video because there is still much confusion around this topic and the depth of it was not grasped.
