Depends of the intent. The ego works through resistance. Its bread and butter is resistance. If you resist what IS, you create worlds, dimensions, societies, and life. The Truth is Love and Light. The Truth is no worlds, no separation, just IS. Hedonists indulge as a form of resistance. To indulge for them, means to resist Truth in favour of the rosy picture of all Joy, Love and Truth being in the Sex, Money, Fame, Food of what they seek. They create worlds by doing this, worlds of the woman or man of my dreams containing all the Truth and Love I could hope for, western science containing all the Truth and Omnipresence one needs to be happy, fame and sex containing all the Joy and Truth I need to be fulfilled. Cynics, and fundamentalists, abstain from indulgence as a form of resistance. To abstain for them, means to resist Truth in favour of the rosy picture of what they think god and spirituality means. They create worlds by doing this, worlds of a God in the sky containing all the Love and Truth I could possibly need, Shiva yogic deities containing all the Love and Truth I could need, special Gurus containing all the Love and Truth I could need. Both sides of the coin create worlds, worlds that cannot be realized, precisely because they are resistance to IS. IS does not abstain from Sex, Money, Fame. But neither does IS indulge in Sex Money or Fame. IS has nothing to do with abstaining or indulging. IS, is not resisting, not creating worlds, not chasing worlds. Its a regression of both abstaining and indulging. For me, this regression looks like abstaining from the outside, but its simply a retreat back from creating worlds, back to BEING. In practice, that looks like an effort to not have sex, money, fame, or to indulge. But its completely different and independent. Rather, the ego has been conditioned for so long, has been in power for so long, that it resists and take control of consciousness out of instinct. To regress from worlds means to let go of the ego's need to control, need to resist. God naturally does not indulge or abstain, both of them are egoic. God does not need to abstain, but he does not need to drink wine or have sex either. Those are worldly affairs, affairs done as pretending to not BE. And creating and taking worlds seriously, confusing them for IS.

@At_Giza keep going and you wont remember what time is .

There are imaginary illusions that when occur cause truth to be revealed. Ramana Maharshi said that when you dream, you may dream of a lion, but that doesn't mean the dream can't wake you up. This is very true. Meditation is an illusion, yet it wakes you up. Psychedelics is an illusion, yet it wakes you up. Science is an illusion, yet it creates 5 meo dmt which wakes you up! Leo has made critiques of science and rationality in the past because its symbolic and does not represent the truth - which fine thats right. Yet this symbolic delusion created a symbolic concept called chemistry, which created psychedelics, which wakes you the fuck up! How is that possible? Is it science doing it? Is it meditation doing it? Is the illusion doing it? Whats going on here?

@SamueLSD

@SamueLSD I think this question has some conflict of interest issues.

Yep Yeah definitely, especially Nimbin and Byron Bay. I saw an echidna crawl up to me while meditating in the bush a few days ago but didn't take a pic They are cute animals even if they are spiky. I find that meditation seems to attract animals. @bejapuskas definitely dude good point!

Yeah its not that I hate society, its more it just feels 'heavy'. For the past 2 years I've had to travel to china every 2 months for work, a poor part, and don't know what it is, but I just love how 'light' it feels. In my home country its highly developed, the roads are made with lots of material, paths made with lots of concrete, there's metal everywhere, everything is super complicated, its detached from nature. Society in general is very intellectual. In China lots of houses are small, made of bamboo, simple outside markets, emeshed with nature, etc. And life is very simple. I could get into systems thinking but the point is really to live simply and with nature. I totally appreciate how society has solved so many security and safety issues, I just wish there was a safe society that used a lot less resources, was way less complicated, and focused more on being in nature. In places like Kathmandu for example, when I last went there, lots of people were materialistic because they were poor and had not experienced how material possession will not help them. So lots of surivival issues there.@Preety_India Yep. It was more from learning from a sadhu, but definitely agree about location not mattering. nice you're ultimately right i think!

?????????

Yeah you really just need to contemplate what an object is(like a coke bottle) and realize you can never get to the bottom of what it is(Nothingness). Same with the self. Creation seems to form and exist simply by not inspecting it. The coke bottle exists so long as you dont contemplate what it is. The false self exists so long as you dont contemplate what it is. @Nahm yes the only reason why I'm taking this question seriously is because I think its True. But what if the question itself is imaginary.

? Is meditation actually meditation, and what's the difference between meditation and Truth... Wait why did I think there was a difference? I forgot.. Wait a sec, whose meditating? Wait a sec, whose the one asking this question. ohhhhhh. That question is imaginary. Its not real. Wait a sec. Whats the difference between non duality and duality...

I created meditation to make me realize I created meditation?

@docs20 nope

But its not just 'hardness' that plays a role in whether we can eliminate meat. A large part of it is beliefs, ideologies and views of the people. Maybe its quite easy to eliminate meat from an economic and practical standpoint... but from the standpoint of christian beliefs(that animals are made from god to serve almighty humans) to rational science dogmas (of meat has vitamins that absolutely cannot be replaced with vegetables), it doesn't make sense to go to veganism, or its completely repulsive to do so, as it threatens the worldviews that we have and love to death. And in history, what's been harder to change? Economic systems or the worldviews of humans? Its always been the stubborn worldviews of the human race that has been the hard part. Its our attitudes, our views, our egos, our psychological and sociological development. Why focus so much on the economics when its not the problem? Maybe focusing on the economics is gaslighting?

awesome courage man! I dropped out of college too. Know how tough it can be and I went through that phasw too. Just wanted to say you'll get through it and good on you!

@andyjohnsonman its not the default setting of reality, that's why it seems that way.

What are your views of living by a life purpose that is risky in terms of jail and personal security? The mind has been trained to enter samadhi states with a few minutes of will. During the samadhi states, the life purpose that the You wants to do, the result that happens after really feeling what that life purpose is, is always the following: "LP: To lead people into adopting novel social systems that increase their wellbeing and creative potential." In other words, inventing or doing analysis on different types of social systems like capitalism, marxism, socialism, communism, etc. And then persuading or influencing people to adopt these social systems, for their own benefit. It could even be deploying a social system within a business for increasing the wellbeing, productivity or creative potential of the people within the business. But obviously this risks jail, and living a hairy life. What are your views of adopting life purposes that have significant risks?

No that's incorrect. In Australia, spores are not legal, they are ambiguous. Spores can be considered a 'derivative' of psilocybin mushrooms in the eyes of the court under certain circumstances. In Australia, schedule 1 lists "Psilocybin and its derivatives being those derivatives having hallucinogenic properties" (Drug Misuse and Trafficking act 1985, Schedule 1) SUSMP notes this about derivatives: (SUSMP sec 5) The above passage indicates that a material can be deemed a derivative if the cultivation process of psilocybin mushrooms could be considered a physical or chemical conversion to magic mushrooms. In the community, it is generally considered that spore prints are legal in Australia, but spore syringes are not.

@LfcCharlie4 thats awesome that you're vegan, but to me the poultry industry is the tobacco industry much more than 5g.

haha I'm glad you see that. I've always wanted science to head that way. Unfortunately the ship has sailed for me and science, I'm now onto things like sociology, politics and designing social systems.

5G has shown evidence of imposing health risks, but its weakly linked to coronavirus. There are many more important things to focus on and talk about with coronavirus than 5G. Mass produced poultry and cattle farming is A HUGE factor for coronavirus, and this is the real thing that needs to be brought to light. No point wasting energy on this 5G = coronavirus shit.

well if you follow the teachings of Mongu9719 then yes God is a bit arrogant.

I think you would make good friends with @pluto he has also done a lot of higher dimensional being counselling.
