Given the popularity of trip report threads on here, I think we need to start indexing them. This thread is for linking to all trip report threads on the forum. Do not actually post the content of your trip report here, just post a link. Someone please use the forum's search function and make a list of the best trip reports we've got and post links here. It'd be nice to organize them by substance, with sub-headings like: Mushrooms, LSD, AL-LAD, DMT, Ayahausca, 5-MeO, etc. I think this can become a valuable online resource for serious non-dual psychonauts. That kind of thing doesn't really exist elsewhere. Most places that list trip reports are recreation-focused, not spirituality-focused. Thanks!

There is no escape from suffering. Your happiness is 100% dependent on good health.

Yes, I plan on hiring a web developer to do a mobile version and make some improvements to the blog so it is easier to search and navigate. I will also move to site to a better server so it will be faster.

Nothing will be dumbed down to please anyone. It will be like my videos in that regard. It is not just a description, it is the entire epistemic process for how to do truth-seeking. That's if the book is released as a single volume. If multiple shorter volumes, then less so. It is written like my blog quotes. No.

"If triangles had a God, he would have three sides."

It is very understandable. A teen can understand it. The problem is that most people don't care to understand it.

You have to sell something. It doesn't have to be your own product, you can sell someone else's products through affiliate links.

No. If you want to make money you should focus on YT, TikTok, Instagram, or Facebook. Create content for those platforms and link back to your website/blog for sales. A blog will not get traffic on its own. You gotta bring the traffic to it from elsewhere.

If someone slaps you across the face, you will react internally. You can't help that. But be non-reactive externally. This is not about being emotionless. It's not allowing others to make you react in stupid ways that weaken you.

I am not sure yet. It depends on what kind of deal the publisher is willing to accept. I would like to use a major publisher but if their terms are too unfavorable then I will be forced to do it myself. Once the book is all done then we'll see which publisher is serious about publishing it. I don't know what their level of receptivity will be. Will they understand the importance of the book? Will they see its potential? Of course that all depends on how well I write it. So that's my focus now. I have to make it great.

Sure. That's the easy part. The hard part is just finishing the book. Once it is done then I will have many options for promotion.

Both are true. Where is the problem?

I didn't mean you won't have an internal reaction. I meant don't react externally. That's what poise is.

@How to be wise If I see you trolling me again with your negativity, you will be banned.

Sounds like you're doing the responsible thing so this should grow you a lot. Welcome to maturity.

Consciousness is not a belief.

@James123 I am talking about your Consciousness. You are conscious. Consciousness is Infinity.

Infinity is imagining "before" and "where". Infinity is always HERE, NOW. This is it.

Whips, sweat, and blood.

Dude, Infinity is all there ever can be

Dude, what are you talking about? You are Infinity.

Keep in mind that many billionaires and business tycoons are introverts. And they love money and success. Introverts are good at working hard behind the scenes rather than playing social games.

The finite IS the Infinite. God IS its Creation. Finite = Infinite. That is the final duality to unify.

Cult classics don't work that way. The right people need to find it, not normies. What is sharable with your family is mainstream, mass-market stuff. Imagine trying to share Godel, Escher, and Bach with your family. Ooofff.

I hope to find a publisher for it and have them help with marketing. But this is unclear yet. Mostly though, I am hoping for word of mouth to work because it is a rare, niche kind of book. It is not a mainstream book but hopefully a "cult classic" sort. I will do podcasts and such to help promote it.
