Phenomenologicaly, beauty is when you melt in the witnessed. The duality between you and the witnessed disappear and only the witnessed remains. It's non-duality. It's a taste of the essence of spirituality. Beauty is not a meaning but a phenomena.

I'd love to hear how the technique goes from anyone who try it. How intense is it? How does it impact your sexual drive? I only know that it works wonders for me and I've done quite a bit of energy work, so i wonder how it works for someone who hasn't.

@Jay Ray My pleasure

Grounding vs ungrounding is not a function of the heart(heart chakra) but rather the root chakra. Being stuck in your head you miss out on more than your heart. Listen to your entire body. I recommend reading Wheels of Life, it's about the chakras/the different intelligences of the body. Also incorporate any kind of energetic practice to your meditation routine, such as loving kindness or chakra meditation.

I wrote a post on this exact topic. Basically you can get pleasure without ejaculation with the meditation technique i describe. Which means that you don't get any of the negative effects of ejaculation, to the contrary, you get lots of psychological benefits.

@kag101 Not at all. But since then I've had a similar experience with yellow when I did 5-meo.

It's called spiritual bypassing

@Coldbrain The past is nothing more than a thought. Solipsism is half true in that there is no other. Solipsism is wrong in that there is no ego at the center of it.

@Coldbrain Because when all thoughts are gone you realize that consciousness is all there is. So there couldn't be a reality without consciousness.

@Coldbrain This is so. I don't know if it could be logically proven but it becomes glaringly obvious when you have an enlightenment experience.

It boggles my mind that someone with non-dual realization could think like this. Goes to show that there isn't just one interpretation of the experience.

@Snader he took some initiatives in life afterwards but seemed to forget about it after a while. Still it was a wake-up call he's never had before. He's a very asleep person with very little ambition, someone you maybe wouldn't think would benefit from psychedelics, but he did. Any positive nudge for someone is a success.

Gave my weeb friend 100ug lsd once. He listened to metal and contemplared for a couple of hours than he emerged and told me he regret messing up highschool and that he needs to try harder in life. Success.

@Godishere 5-meo can open doors in our minds that doesn't close after the trip is over. It's energetic changes in our 6th and 7th chakra rather than remnants of psychedelics. It's not a negative nor dangerous thing.

@eggopm3@eggopm3 The bottom line is: does it make you feel lasting happiness? Healing dysfunctions in chakras could free your consciousness more than say witnessing-meditation. Also when our energy isn't clogged up in the lower chakras it raises and the more you get into your 3rd eye chakra the more present you become. That's the yogic path. I think the contractions you were feeling is the reason it felt hedonic. Contraction creates duality and it's hedonic to become addicted to a side of the duality. The trick is to let go deeper into the pleasure and, as you said, dissolve the contractions. I updated the instructions slightly: Any struggle shows subtle psychological dysfunction that you will be so much freer without. It's so worth it. Let me know if it's not working after experimenting with the alterations.

Heaven is subconsciously symbolically connected to the heart chakra, to love, to longing, to our place in the world. Or perhaps you mean the Christian thing?

Leo as mentioned DPT is stronger but there are other psychedelics still that he haven't received. But idk why you would need anything more than 5-meo, it's so perfect.

@Muhammad Jawad when you are looking for the 3rd eye, let your intuition guide you. You are looking for an energetic phenomena rather than a physical sensation.

I'm reading Wheels of Life currently. Loving it.

Self actualization is what is happening. Egoism/suffering is being attached to it. You don't have to be, but if you are trying to actualize hate, anger or self-agrandizment egoism it Will bring karma which brings egotism and suffering.

Pain ≠ suffering Suffering = duality = resistance. You can resist both emotional pain or 'physical' pain.

Ground morals in will. You are right that morals are relative, there isn't objective good or bad. Even suffering isn't objectively bad. But if you stop you analysis there you have no grounds for construction. The solution is to say: yes, love isn't better than hate but I will act from love in spite of its arationality. This is transcending and including relativism. Next question is what would you assert? Happiness for all. It is important to know that we all share the same consciousness and that you will reincarnate into everyone you hurt. Happiness is how our system expresses psychological and physiological health. Human happiness comes our chakras and how they manifest as the hierarchy of needs: safety, belonging, power, order, self-actualzition, harmony. Which corresponds to comfort, pleasure, joy, love, psychological integration/emotional purification and beauty/sublimation. Total Sublimation is non-dual enlightenment. Utilitarianism is how this is achieved.

Grace and Grit comes out soon. It's about Ken Wilber and his wife.

@Elevated We have to make a distinction between civilizational development and individual development. We can observe large sets of turquoise individuals and gain knowlage about their behavior. There is a limit to what can be learned from measurements and questionnaires tho. The only way to truly understand a stage is intuitively by observing it in yourself. We don't need to observe a turquoise society to understand the priorities and way of thinking of turquoise individuals. SD shouldn't be equated with cultural epochs. That green talks about transgenderism is dependent on cultural context. It might not happen in japan for example. Blue looks different everywhere, subjection of women is not a given. Spiral dynamics is about the human operating systems that underlie these cultural epochs.

Sleep is supposed to nurture and empower you. Don't compromise on it. Your sleeping schedule should be what nurtures you the most. The real issue is getting up from bed and having a solid morning routine. Self domination is not sustainable. It's better to support yourself than to demand of yourself. Do things that naturally supports healthier sleep like: exercise, healthy diet, no sugar, don't eat for at least 3 hours before bed, spiritual practice, drink lavender tea before bed, keep you room dark and noice free, have a nice bedtime ritual with gratitude practice. If your body and mind is healthy you will naturally pounce out of bed so focus on healing yourself. Our computer/phone screens and artificial lights messes up our natural need for sleep. Try not using screens for a day and only use dim lights during the evening and see when you naturally feel like going to bed. Good luck with the meditating and examine if it impacts your sleep in any way.
