@machiavelli Why don't you awaken and see what's up?

You guys wouldn't be so confused if you were focused on doing practices. If you are just building conceptual models of spirituality then, yeah, you will get very confused. But also, confusion is a huge part of this work. You are in for years of confusion as you struggle to make sense of all the different stuff that spiritual teachers tell you. Some confusion is good for ya. And it's good that you don't just take everything I said blindly. I've actually thought about deliberately incorporating falsehoods in my teaching as poison pills, so you are forced to validate everything I say for yourselves. Maybe this latest video was just a poison pill? How would you know? It would be really good if in the front of the Bible it said, "Note: 10% of the stuff written here is deliberately false so that you think for yourself. Enjoy figuring out which 10% ;)"

Careful, that wasn't my claim. I was talking about the highest extremes of consciousness. The more conscious you get the more functional you get, but after a certain point you can get so conscious that you will not even be able to walk. It's like water. If you drink enough water it will kill you. That doesn't mean that every glass of water is slowly killing you. Also, functionality is a relative matter that involves an alignment between you and your environment. In certain environments being low conscious is actually more functional.

More feminine guys will be attracted to spiritual teachings, especially the lovey-dovey New Agey stuff. The most masculine guys are out there conquering the world and slaying pussy.

Psychedelics make me more in touch with my feminine side, but never affect my straightness, not even a little. They also put me in touch with my authentic masculinity.

Hard to say because I haven't done any statistical analysis on the matter. But I suspect that plenty of guys got more than 1% gay in them. This % will increase in guys who are attracted to spirituality.

@puporing Many of my trips are too hard to communicate.

For you specifically, I wouldn't worry about loving your abuser. That was advice intended for the highest levels of consciousness and development. You are dealing with a much lesser issue. You need to learn to enforce boundaries, to say No, and to be independent of others.

You don't need an infinity of Gods for that. You can access love for your abuser at a much lower level of consciousness. Obviously you understand that your abuser was acting out of ignorance and selfishness, the same dynamic that runs all finite beings, including yourself.

To be clear, all my solipsistic awakenings were always permeated by profound Platonic Love. The difficulty of integration usually comes the next day or next week once you're dealing with everyday life. Not in the moment of awakening itself.

Obviously straight/gay is not a binary, there is a spectrum. I am talking about the far extreme of straightness -- which is my bias.

No, generate your own insights. Your head is already filled with enough human shit.

No, you're pushing water uphill.

A biased, partial form of love, yes. Everything is a gradation of Love. This includes fear and bias. But if you weren't afraid of death you would have died long before you became an adult.

Crazy Love has to be there or it ain't right.

Wow! This is amazing! I am stealing this for my blog.

Yeah, of course I get that. But cops also kill white mass shooters every week too. Some of these differences are due to randomness and the fact that quality of cops varies greatly from place to place. It's not like every white mass shooter gets taken alive. A lot of it depends on their willingness to surrender and the precise situation at hand. Honestly, I have no problem with mass shooters getting shot on the spot if it is obvious they are doing the shooting. Like if the dude is wearing body armor and holding a rifle, just shoot him. But it probably wouldn't look humane to do that if he surrenders and lays down. Obviously shooting unarmed black people needs to stop. But I don't think that is done intentionally, that's more of a fear-based subconscious knee-jerk reaction a small minority of cops have.

If I have to explain it, then you ain't attracted to pussy. Attraction is an arbitrary bias. It has zero rational justification. If you were straight you would be madly attracted to pussy for no explicable reason. That's what being straight means. And if you were a goat you would be madly attracted to goats.

Yes! This is a key point. IT and knowing of IT are entangled. As God is knowing itself it is also creating itself because it has to create both the knowing and the thing being known. This is what entanglement really means. Yes Infinity can recognize higher dimensions of infinity/itself. Cause that's what Infinity entails.

It was an awakening beyond anything you could possible imagine. No words could do it justice. It wasn't just an awakening, it was a super-duper awakening. Your opinions on it will never change the fact that it was an awakening.

Of course yes, but also God goes way deeper and more personal than that. You are God.

I have not seen that video but I know he's had some mystical experiences. That's good, but the problem is that he's not gone nearly deep enough into mystical experience and so he's conceptualizing about God a lot. And he's overly attached to making sense of God using the Christian paradigm -- which is extremely corrupt and limited. He would need many more and deeper awakenings to start to really wake up. He would also have to seriously deconstruct much of his worldview, which would be his biggest challenge because he's so attached to it. To be fair to him, it's very easy to fall back asleep after a shallow awakening or two. Usefulness is relative to whatever your goals are. As you grow your goals can change drastically.

I imagined an infinity of Gods. Have you?

From Level 1-4: Yes. From Level 5: Gaslighting is imaginary.

Have you not heard that all seperation is imaginary?
