Just honestly ask yourself.

Welcome. The more conscious I get the less I try to manipulate my experience or mind. I don't try to think positively or manifest stuff. I am very natural and easy-going. There were years in my life where I did a lot of visualization exercises and tried to control my mind a lot. It had its uses but I also outgrew that. The challenge for me is that I am very creative and always having new insights, so meditation is not very effective for the way my mind works. For me meditation just boils down to sitting still and enjoying Consciousness. Sometimes I'm in the mood for that, but often not because I am using my mind for understanding reality deeper. So there are some trade-offs there. Not a fan There is some truth to the notion that ignroance is bliss. Life was a lot easier when I didn't even know spirituality was a thing. I could just work on my biz and be happy. Now that is not possible because I know too much and biz cannot make me happy like it used to. But that is compensated for by my insane understanding of Consciousness. So I have no regrets.

All of those are fantasies.

Explore however much of Consciousness you want. But if follow Thomas Campbell you will never Awaken. I am all for exploring Consciousness, unlike those fucking nondualists and Buddhists.

@Squeekytoy Your cup of tea.

You are a drop dreaming of drops and oceans.

Because I'm a fool. Colorful games. Go deeper. What stunning arrogance. I am the only one on this planet who knows what the gateway is.

No more trans debate in this thread. If you want to debate that issue start a new thread in the Politics sub forum.

It will work, but it's wasteful of precious DMT. Try to do it quickly to reduce condensation.

They definately help build a solid inner game. However they are not a substitute for socialization experience. The two synergize well. I built a very solid inner game from psychedelics and spirituality. But I also socialized a lot too.

Well, it's quite simple. You need massive socialization experience. That's it.

When it doubt, poke it with a stick.

The other factor is that I am still deepening my understanding of Consciousness, so writing the book now would be a bit premature.

Adding to that bodybuilding analogy, don't just train one muscle with one exercise. Rotate your exercises around to keep things fresh.

No, they are not good. You will lose a lot of DMT as it will condense onto the plastic bag surface. DMT condenses and sticks to any surface within seconds of cooling. It does not just float around like fart fumes that you can catch in a bag. You must inhale DMT vapor immediately. Don't waste money on that. Buy a hand vape for weed concentrate/wax.

I was outlining it and writing bit and pieces. I have a skeleton of it in my notes and mind, but it requires enormous work to write it all out. I would need to take months off from working on Actualized to write it. It's too complex to write in bits and pieces.

Morality is a largely a human invention.

Psychedelics are by far the best method for healing deep trauma.

The appreciation of Consciousness is not at all the same as short-term gratification. Create the distinction.

High on your own supply

I'm not actively working on it right now. I am working on courses. Probably not for 5 years or more.

You gotta fall in love with Consciousness itself. That is the present experience. Don't get lost too much in ideas of the future.

Don't ignore it. You gotta delve into the trauma to heal it. Ignoring it is not healing it. You need to reach a point of understanding, forgiveness, and acceptance. Then you will reach Love.

We will be enforcing a new policy here: Anyone posting AI-generated content, such as text from ChatGPT, or images from Midjourney, or deepfake video, must clearly disclose such. Anyone posting AI-generated content without disclosure will be warned and then banned. Also, be careful about spreading or linking content which could have been AI-generated without disclosing it. For example, don't share studies as if they are real studies when they came from an AI source. Don't post images or videos which seem likely fake without disclosing it. Thanks

Watch your double-standards.
