Contemplate how a bullet (an imaginary thing) going through your skull (an imaginary thing) can kill you (an imaginary thing).
How come in a dream you are able to walk on the floor when the floor is imaginary? Shouldn't you fall through?

When everything is imagination, it all works out just fine.

@Chumbimba Seeing how workshops & retreats are conducted helps with doing your own solo retreat.
I would say that workshops and retreated organized for you by a leader are for newbie and intermediate people.
Solo retreats are for advanced people.

I told you to not confuse the lower death drive with the higher death drive.
I do care that people don't commit suicide. Which is why I always say, don't harm the body.
Suicide is no done out of consciousness and love, it is done out of fear and suffering.
I am only talking about actions taken out of the highest consciousness and love.

Correct
Right, which is why you suffer. Because your wishes cannot be full fulfilled as long as you are in human form.
Of course
It's not just smooth or lack of suffering, it's a Cosmic Orgasm that never ends. You make love to everyone and everything that could possibly exist. For example, you have sex with Hitler and you LOVE IT!
You don't understand what LOVE is until you've had sex with Hitler
Until you understand that everything that Hitler did was the highest form of LOVE. When you realize that Hitler's action were just an expression of the highest LOVE, you will cry like a baby and you will be happier than you've imagined was possible.

You will do whatever you want, since you are God.
Heaven removes all limits. You gain the capacity to create or experience whatever you want. You could imagine yourself having sex with every hot girl on the planet simultaneously and cumming into them for eternity - an endless orgasm. Until you get bored with it and go do something else like kill some puppies.
That is Heaven: whatever you want, forever.

Yes, it is a real place beside here.
Heaven is death.
You will not reach Heaven until you permanently die forever.
Death is an endless process of LOVE. Which is what you call Heaven.
The only thing keeping you from Heaven is your fear of death. The problem is that you are not willing to let yourself go.

People interact with God in different ways.
All of my experiences are filled with profound insight, but of course the experience itself is transformational beyond any insight that can be articulated.
But for me, UNDERSTANDING is the core of Awakening. You cannot really awaken without understanding. Understanding is the key. Experience alone is not enough. You must understand yourself/God totally. God IS infinite understanding.

Rogan isn't Yellow. He has hints of Yellow and his openmindedness/willingness to consider multiple perspectives is a Yellow quality.

Actually that's your projection and judgment.
It was not an execution, it was an example of excessive force and carelessness. These are very different things.
Terrorists are people who terrorize others for a political agenda. The police in Floyd's case are not terrorists unless we find out they are part of the KKK or some ideology like that.
They were just police doing business as usual in that part of town, dealing with a suspicious guy who was not fully cooperating with them. And they used excessive force.
I highly doubt their intention was to kill Floyd. If that was their intention they wouldn't have done it out in public like that.
3rd degree murder seems like the proper charge here.
People who are calling for a higher charge are not being objective, they are seeking to exact revenge and a political agenda.
You don't see a reason because you don't want to see one.
The real political issue here is changing "business as usual", which is an issue of police training and culture.

Is your life peaceful when you are growing the most?
Peace is the end-result of turbulence.

You imagine other people, so of course you are still here imagining them gone.
You take yourself for granted.
When you die, the entire universe will die with you. Like a dream.

I was resisting the realization that my mother and brother's suffering is just my imagination. It isn't real. It's part of the dream that keeps me attached to the dream.
There is no me from your POV. I am just an idea which keeps you attached to your dream. You invented me so that you could feel real.

All those fears you're going to have to work through and face. That's YEARS of tripping and integration work right there.
Buckle in, it's gonna be one hell of a ride.
Too much? You haven't even begun yet.

Omniscience isn't what people imagine it is.
Omniscience isn't about knowing your mom's thoughts, it's about realizing that your mom is your thought and her thoughts are just more of your own thoughts about your own thoughts.

There are healthy and unhealthy ways. Depends on how you do it.
If you take 10g of mushrooms, yeah, it will be traumatizing.
It's hard to know where the line is until you cross it.
After 30 days of 5-MeO-DMT, I crossed that line and had to back off. But that took 30 days of epic tripping to cross it.
And everyone's different, so no one can tell you where your line is.
Facing fear is a requirement of Love.

I would try dissolving the blotter in a few drops of vinegar and water, then plugging it. This should give better absorption.
Plugged 4-AcO-DMT is extremely potent. Watch out. It will blindside you. Some chemicals become more potent by plugging them.

A purpose doesn't guarantee you are financially free. That's a bonus thing you'll have to achieve on top of your purpose.
If you create great work, people will certainly be eager to buy it as long as they know about it.

To be honest, Martin lacks a lot of mastery and embodiment work. Psychedelics can only get you so far. He still has a lot of attachments.
There is a big gulf between woke people and deeply masterful woke people who have a deep embodiment & purification.

Because growing beyond the center of gravity of your culture takes serious independent thinking, research, and motivation, while most people do not think for themselves, they are sheep, and they are just looking to survive however they can.

Stage Blue isn't merely an ideology, it's a level of cogntive development.

Such things can happen to anyone doing serious spiritual work. When we are talking about realizing the deepest nature of reality.... yeah, it's a lot to handle. Spirituality has some inherent risks and dangers.
My 30 days of 5-MeO got to the point where I thought I would never return to Earth.

Then again, it's just a divorce. Happens to people all the time. There's no need to make a giant narrative out of it. People grow apart from each other frequently. It's okay. You move on and meet new people and keep growing.
50 years old is still very young.
Ralston just got newly married and he's almost 70! Martin will find a new girl.

It's about actualizing your potential. A human being isn't born complete. A human being must work on herself to become great and God-like. This has nothing to do with not accepting yourself. Greatness requires effort. Even accepting yourself requires effort.
You only have two options in life: to be mediocre and shitty, or great. If you don't make the effort to be great, you will be shitty by default. Devilry is the default position for humans. Unbecoming a devil takes a lifetime of work.

Normies love to mythologize and idealize awakened gurus, treating them as saints.
It's actually a clever defense mechanism of the ego-mind. The ego-mind reasons like this: "If awakening doesn't make a person perfect and good, then it's not real and not worth working towards." By putting the guru on a pedestal the normie/student doesn't have to take responsibility for the hard work that must go into perfecting one's life. The normie/student wants awakening to be an instant cure-all to all of life's problems. This is of course a fantasy.

Something like a nose job, if it really bugs you, is not a big deal to get. It could be worth it if you're gonna be stressing over it for the rest of your life.
Read some of Maxwell Maltz books like Psychocybernetics. He was an early plastic surgeon who describes the psychological effects of plastic surgery on people. For some people it is a neurotic escape and it doesn't solve their underlying self-esteem issues. For other people, they get one minor fix and it significantly improves their self-esteem. In which case it's worth it.
Of course you can learn to accept and love yourself either way, but there's also nothing wrong with getting a minor tweak if it's a relatively simple thing and it will make you like yourself.
Just don't fall into the trap of constantly trying to perfect yourself through surgery. This is where some Hollywood types go wrong and give plastic surgery a bad name.
Think of it this way: if you had some crooked teeth, it's legitimate to go the dentist to get them straightened out. You want to have a nice smile that you are confident in.
Ana Kasparian from TYT got a nose job and it looks great. I think she's an example of doing it right. Not over-done, not obsessive.
