Of course there is no boundary between sanity and insanity. It's actually crazy to believe such a boundary would exist.

Because normies are too unwise let the highest wisdom lead them. They need something cruder, like a mule needs a whip. You can't lead a mule with philosophy.

This is a foolish position which I speak out against. Seeking energy is foundational to this work. Many of the greatest mystics were hardcore seekers. Seeking is good. Seek and ye shall find. The seeking will naturally exhaust itself as Truth/Love/God is found.

That is exactly what I said

Leadership is rarely done by the wisest and most peaceful. Leadership is usually done by the strongest and most ambitious. The problem with those other countries you mentioned is that they lack the ambition and power necessary for leadership. You must want to lead and you must be willing to crack some skulls in the process. You don't lead by asking nicely.

Spirit seeking Infinite Love (AKA God/Truth).

Cheers mate! 5-MeO-MALT has some crazy deep potential for Love-realization. Excited to hear your trip reports. Hopefully it works for you as well as it worked for me. If you have plenty of experience with 5-MeO-DMT then you'll feel right at home with -MALT. Doses for 5-MeO-DMT and -MALT are nearly the same.

No you aren't. Don't mislead newbies.

@mw711 No idea what you're talking about.

Psychedelic mushrooms grow all over the world, on every continent. Herbalists all around the world have been using them for 100,000+ years. It's just not part of pop culture. Humans in Europe and Africa were using magic mushrooms before humans even migrated to the Americas. Cave painting 6000-9000 BC, Algeria.

It's not just that psychedelics need to be legalized, even more importantly we need to build out an entire culture, education system, and support system for how to use these substances for deep spiritual work in a grounded, non-dogmatic way. A lot of theoretical foundation-building is needed within psychology, philosophy, epistemology, metaphysics, and spirituality. All of this theory needs to be part of a serious education program. But that will take generations to gain traction. Actualized.org theory is that foundation. Ideally you spend 5 years learning all the basic theory, reading books, contemplating, etc. THEN you start tripping. There could be a certificate that one gets that allows one to become a psychonaut. Sort of like passing a driving test at the DMV. Of course it's gonna be hell to get people to agree on what such a certificate program would have to contain. It will be endlessly political because it is so threatening to the ego-mind.

Great! Welcome Depends on what you mean by "manifest". Ultimately as the ego dissolves God starts to work through your body and mind more. Life becomes more effortless. Life flows more. Things naturally manifest themselves from your thoughts and actions. It has radically changed me. But at the same time I'm still me. The more you change the more you stay the same. Interesting. Personally I don't have much experience with that stuff and trauma, so I'm not the best to comment on that. I focus all my trips on metaphysics. I know a lot of people have deep trauma, so that's good to clean up. Thanks for sharing the book, looks useful.

No

Most girls are super insecure, so your qustion should read: Should I give money to a poor person?

David DeAngelo has good advice which avoid many of the toxic Red Pill and pickup tropes.

Professor Dave? Lol This dude has no clue what science is. Mysticism does not need QM to prove itself. QM just nicely shows that the foundations of science are a scam.

His son has autism, so it seems to run in the family.

#1 rule of dealing with girls: never call them fat unless they are skinnier than a supermodel. Apparently this lady never learned this cardinal rule Learn your lesson, boys. This is high buddha wisdom right here.

His commitment to running RSD and to material success places a glass ceiling on how high he can go. He would have to let that go, and it doesn't seem like he's willing to in this lifetime. He's very attached to the whole public speaker, the next Tony Robbins career path. That's fine. Not everyone has to become woke as fuck. Owen's function is to help guys achieve material results, not waking up. Owen can get you laid. And that's enough for most guys. Most guys are not looking for the kind of depth I teach. This doesn't mean you can't learn good stuff from Owen. It just won't be Absolute Truth.

I never drank once with going out 100s of nights. I don't enjoy going out or partying. I did it as a personal development project. If it was up to me I would barely talk to humans. I could live on a deserted island and be happy. Well, the fact is, the finite human self is a total fiction. It was never real. So is it possible to be self-less? YES! It's the only truthful option. Everything else is a lie. Will it be easy for you to surrender your self? Fuck no! That's the last thing on Earth you'll do.

All those paradoxes are a feature, not a bug. Your finite mind is never going to grasp Infinity. Your finite mind will break like a wooden ship crashing into the coastal rocks in a storm. You are not going to survive contact with Infinity. It will break you to the point where you realize you don't even have a skull anymore. Imagine your mind colliding with Infinity so hard you realize you never had a skull.

It's extremely radical. You are imagining the brain, eyeballs, perception, and atoms. None of that is absolutely true! That's all part of the dream. Red is RED. That's what it is. It is not anything else. Stop trying to invent explanations for any thing. All things are themselves, not other things. RED is not logical. RED is not thought. RED is not anything but RED. Get that RED is RED. Believe it or not, you don't get this yet. You think you get it, but you don't.

It's okay. You are still very young, your whole life is ahead of you. All you need to do is make some effort to go out and socialize with girls. You do not need houses, cars, or money to socialize with girls and have sex. If I were you I would seriously consider relocating to a city with a great, busy nightlife, so you can go out every weekend to bars and clubs where the hot girls are. That's all you're missing. You don't need anything special to attract girls. But stop procrastinating and making excuses. Actually decide to take some serious action. When I started socializing with girls I was older than you. So age is not the problem here.

At your age you're still very immature and you just need to spend the next 10 years assembling your life and discovering who you are at a basic personality level (I don't mean enlightenment). Do basic self-help work and build a life you would enjoy. You're getting ahead of your skiis. The Life Purpose Course is what can help you add some backbone to your life so you're not just a leaf blowing in the wind. You need a life purpose and some type of career skills to ground you in life. Don't lose sight of just enjoying life. There's nothing else really to do. Cultivate your passions, build skills, be productive, be creative, relate to other humans, grow yourself psychologically, etc. before you go chasing enlightenment.

What you mean is this: in a long-term relationship it's important to learn your partner's top 2 love languages and communicate your love for them via those 2 languages. With that I would agree. I don't consider that buttering up tho. I consider that a conscious expression of your love, in a non-needy, non-manipulative way, in order to maintain a long healthy relationship and to deepen love. In general, learning how to give genuine, authentic, and powerful compliments is a life skill one has to train and cultivate. It does not come naturally to most people.
