We all die every night when we sleep, doesn't stop the flath earthers tho. Learn to recognize where the idea of ghosts and immortality came from, and whats true and false about it.

I too have a high tolerance to any mind-altering substances, it sucks, maybe its the genes or maybe its because I didn't touch alcohol or THC until the age of 28 so maybe my brain wasnt weakened by constant abuse like my peers did.

I too had an insight about ghosts, they are just stories we like to believe because we fear death and the finality of it. Surrender to the void, and stop clinging to such childish beliefs. Nothing happens when we die, because were nothing to begin with.

All right.. let me ask you then, why would you watch a movie ever again? Or read a book ever again? Or listen to any new music ever again? Why would you travel to places you have never been before? Thats the point of all of this, isnt it? Reality is infinite and as Tolle said, it delights itself in manifesting new shapes and forms.. you are looking at psychedelics strictly as personal-development tools.. but they are SOOOO much more than that. I will never understand people that say "oh I did shrooms once, I dont see the point of doing them again", really shows how limited their scope is.

Well, both Leo and Raltson are kinda right and wrong at the same time. Raltson's response was excellent, but I do wonder if Raltson was/is passionate about truth as much as Leo is. To not have done any psychedelics in the last 50 years is... weird, even if you are done seeking. Does he ever watch a movie or read a book? If so, then there is also time for some fun and lighthearted recreational shrooming

Leo must feel like Frodo at the end of the war of the rings, you cant come back to the shire and pretend like everything is fine, you cant relate to no one and nothing will ever be like it was before. To realize you are the only human amongst billions to experiencing such divine states must be quite the burden, there is a sadness to it and you can see it in his face.

MAYBE an alien visitation that is exactly what human kind needs right now, it will humble all men, poor and rich alike, and will bring all lower beliefs into question.

I will believe Bashar the day he does a big multiplication while channeling, after all I am sure the alien has access to a calculator in that spaceship he claims to pilot. Still, his way with words is impressive.

Why do you think god hid the secrets of consciousness inside the venom of a toad? Was it random, or was there an intention behind it?

Oh this sounds like fun What am I most thankful for?

At your current stage, do you think you would be able to be subjected to surgery without the need of anesthesia? Say, wisdom teeth removal for example.

God takes a break and the world falls apart, coincidence? I think not!

Every-time someone says "its an illusion" here, it clearly tells the person is clueless. Just about anyone can copy-paste those three words and no one grows smarter or better for it. If my nephew asks me what an SSD storage is, I wont tell him "Its just atoms, lol", because thats just lazy and pretentious.

Clever folk more often than not forget and underestimate how irresponsible your average Joe is.

Instant enlightenment via SKYPE for 250 dollars, ESP, Chakras, Reiki, Succubus, Dark Arts, Astrology.. etc Whats going on with this community? Did everyone turn off their bullshit detectors? Where do we draw the line? Are we going to believe in werewolves and vampires now? I get it. Reality is pure imagination and the idea of werewolves or ghosts is just as real as my parents, they are all made of the same vacuum of infinity and neither has priority above the other. I am aware that everything and anything is possible. When the formless births a form it can take an infinite amount of shapes. My argument does not arise from a materialistic paradigm. But we have to come up with a new word to differentiate these two clearly distinct qualities of the imagined. You and I can both see the sun, but only I can see my imaginary friend Mr. Gurgles. Both the sun and Mr.Gurgles are real yet they exist on different layers of reality and I think it will be healthier for our collective consciousness to pay more attention to these layers. The path is full of traps, lies and deceptions. Its imperative to be both open-minded and skeptic when experiencing this dream, and I am afraid the skepticism is running low on the mystic communities.

@Serotoninluv Yes that is what I am trying to say, I am trying to point out the lack of skepticism due to the over abundance of wishy washy esoteric practices being recommended here. I am not saying all of them are evil, but some of them really put me off, there are some people here that desperately need help and kindness and its just not right to direct them to the local voodoo doctor. Ignorance is harmful, babies die because some vegan parents cant differentiate between what their baby needs and what they think is good for them. This is just an example and I fully support veganism when its done right.

@Raptorsin7 I channel my spiritual experiences with entheogens through the arts, heres a sample of some of my illustrations, I also do photography and digital works. I have had several awakening experiences that have shattered many of my materialistic viewpoints, but I definitely know that I am not enlightened as I still feel identified with my ego.

@Leo Gura ... @Raptorsin7 My judgement comes not out of ignorance, but from direct experience. I have plenty of relatives who are into alternative-medicine, psychics and the likes, I see what works for them and what doesn't. Scammers and psychopaths prey on the weak and the wounded, as they are vulnerable and easily manipulated. Also why bring my progress here? You wouldn't know anything about it. If you wish to know just ask.

@Leo Gura A man is purchasing rhino horns from the black market because he cant get wood. Another man is meditating and going to couples therapy to better his sex life. One of them operates from high consciousness and the other is actively harming the planet with his ignorance and wishful thinking. There is a line, otherwise you wouldn't have made a channel about self-improvement.

Sorry if this has been already discussed, but one of my favorite channels posted this and I think it might be interesting to discuss. The video seems to give very good reasons on why consciousness doesn't influence reality.

*awakening intensifies* Love that channel

Many teachers dont even mention chakras, so I wouldnt worry about them. Focus on meditation and the rest should come naturally.

To answer your second question, in the words of Eckhart Tolle; Life delights itself in creating new forms and delights in experiencing itself through all those forms.

I checked his other videos and it earned my subscription, the music is nice, and while I am not a fan of beats (i like my spiritual music without repeating pulses) the visuals in some of the videos are excellent

@VeganAwake I love that documentary, Daniel Schmidt is truly a gift to us all. The guy also made Inner Worlds Outer Worlds which is also fantastic. I think his works are the best videos yet when it comes to truth and spirituality. He is also an excellent composer, he made the music for all his documentaries, this is one of my favorites.
