You guys have no clue how deep this self-deception goes. What I am pointing to cannot be explained to you with any words. I'm not just talking about idealism or Buddhism or any of that. Even though it all roughly sounds the same. If you want to get a sense of what I am pointing to, do 300 trips of 5-MeO-MALT, DMT, and 5-MeO-DMT, and deconstruct absolutely every spiritual idea and teaching you've ever heard, including all your cessations, jnanas, and the notion that you have ever slept or meditated. What I am telling you is that meditation is imaginary. You've never meditated a day in your life, you sneaky bastard. Or don't. I don't care what you do.

You imagined all spirituality and every spiritual teacher as part of a trick to keep yourself asleep. I am a figment of your mind, yes. You are not a figment of mind, you are Mind. You didn't, but nevertheless you did not question your ideas of awakening deeply enough. All of that is a fiction you created to keep yourself dreaming. There never was a Peter Ralston. You made him up

You can become so conscious that you'll realize that this planet and all the humans on it are just a figment of your mind.

Truth is real, and it's the only thing that exists. But consciousness does not stop there.

Cute. But you are trapped in Buddhist group-think. Remember, if you believe Buddhism is the end-all-be-all, that's what will become true for you, because that is your dream. ALL of Buddhism, is just a dream within a dream. Good luck escaping it.

You are God, and you can awaken deeper than anyone has ever awoken. Imagine a new awakening that no one has ever had. Yup. You can have that, if you're serious. Don't just assume that there's nothing new or original. How would you know that? That's just an assumption. This stuff goes a lot deeper than any teacher has told you. Consider the possibility that all Buddhist meditative attainments are just fictions within God's Infinite Mind This doesn't make the insights untrue per se, it just makes them less than what is possible to realize.

When you truly awaken you will know why it is tops. All experience is Absolute Truth. But awakening doesn't end with that realization. Truth is relatively easy to awaken to. But there are much higher awakenings beyond realizing what Truth is.

Whatever the Buddha may or may not have achieved, it is obvious that modern day Buddhists ain't Awake. Especially the Western ones. Which shows you just how inadequate it is. If 40 years of daily meditation cannot Awaken you, what's the point?

If it works, it works because you've spent years rewiring the neurons in your brain. Yes, weightlifting works, however you will never lift as much as I can with a forklift. It is the mark of wisdom to know your own limits.

@Michael Paul God is trying its damnedest to awaken you, but you keep resisting and rejecting.

It's simple, you're not taking enough action. Health conditions can be very debilitating if they get bad enough, so you can't always just act your way out of them, unlike other kinds of problems. All success assumes a foundation of good health.

No. Awakening will force you to rethink your whole life.

It's hard to say. In some ways it's harder but in some ways it's easier. There are so many opportunities online these days that make business much easier than it used to be. Breaking out used to be quite challenging because media was much less democratic. The 90s were amazing opportunity-wise, but don't look backwards with envy, so much opportunity lies ahead. Pick a new emerging field and get to work. Tech, software, art, AI, games, VR worlds, psychedelics, spirituality, etc. have so much potential. Income inequality really only affects people with standard salary or hourly wage jobs. It does not apply to creatives and entrepreneurs. If you generate massive value and innovation you will make lots of money.

Of course! If you were born an ant you'd be screwed Hard to say. I'm pretty glad I discovered them only later in my 30s because they would have interfered with starting my business and building out the necessary infrastructure for Actualized.org

That's all good, but I don't consider it Awakening. Awakening is a very distinct state.

A good start. At 20mg+ it will knock your socks off. 5mg is a very low dose. Total ego death will come, and you'll go way beyond that. Yes MALT lasts about twice as long and it has more erotic, feely, sensual vibes than 5-MeO-DMT.

I don't know what "controlled psychosis" means. Sounds dangerous. But if you can find a way to do it safely, then sure, explore away.

Yes. If you care about knowing consciousness. People who do not do psychedelics do not understand consciousness. Why should they? Nowhere is it written that you should. Your brain chemistry is the ultimate roadblock. That should not be so surprising. After all, you cannot fly like a bird simply because you weren't born with wings. And if meditation works, it works by altering your brain chemistry. Just not suffciently enough to fully unlock your mind.

Infinity is magic. Ta-DAAAAA! How the fuck else could anything exist?

Sages aren't known for their riches.

Where would the puppet end and the master begin? Literally take your finger and try to point to the puppet and then the puppet-master. Notice what happens.

It's good to remind you guys cause you easily forget and get seduced by gurus

That's exactly right.

No. Be God. That's the best. What you want is happiness, not social status or "being the best". All these famous high-achievers are obsessive and neurotic. Which does not mean you cannot be ambitious. But stop doing work to be better than others. This is so silly. Just do the work you enjoy for its own sake.

5-MeO-MALT is most gentle. Lowest body high of the 5-MeO class. 5-MeO-MIPT has fairly significant body high, very heightened sense of feeling through the whole body which can be both beautiful but somewhat uncomfortable. Most euphoric for me. 5-MeO-DMT is least gentle. It is nauseating for most people. But you can also get used to it such that it's not a problem. The simplicity of it is nice. DMT is best consumed orally with harmalas rather than vaped. But your experiences might vary from mine.
