Isn't this just a highlight of God's power of creation then? Things become what I believe them to be. In the same way you can add on dualities or strip them. More paradoxes.

@Leo Gura Might as well be nothing at that point. Oh wait.. All of it may have love but it is also possible for it to spread the opposite, no? That's what egos do. Would God reject a loveless version of itself? That's not very loving.

Quite the paradox. God creates things with no love and allows it to exist for the sake of love. God has turned itself on itself. It seems like love and no love is in perfect limbo.

Distraction much?

A lot of animes are amazing and are enough to make you cry your eyes out and they explore lots of topics. Something like Aku No hana is really different and explores high school pressures in Japan. Some dark and morbid stuff. Welcome to the NHK explores the psychology of being a social shut in known as a "hikikomori" and somebody tries to cure him with what is described as a "mix of Freud, Jung, and exposure-like excursions into the outside world" School Days delves into the psychology of cheating and how much it can break someone. There's a wide range of animes from showing how high schoolers behave, social and psychological struggles and how they are overcame. Its easy to get lost in the story but if you pay attention and look into what is going on it can be used for some serious growth. The only western shows I see get close to highlighting serious issues are things like Avatar The Last Airbender which is great.

I can dream to become a kangaroo ?

Don't know much about the potential physical effects of such high doses but mental stability wise it doesn't hold a candle to the likes of stronger psychedelics. It's a given that risk goes up with dose. Not that I disagree. Would much rather recommend 5 meo or dmt or something than a MG of lsd. I wasn't doing it for enlightenment work specifically and have since stopped doing such high doses.

Dangerous and potentially fatal. If you must must try deliriants then do diphenhydramine but I don't recommend either. Salvia and many dissociatives are safer and can provide similar insights to the illusion of perception but still psychedelics are mainly safer. I'd avoid such substances if all you want is enlightenment. I only did what I did to chase drug experiences. The awakening was accidental.

Imagine being enlightened for some time. Do you think the memories and change it had on the body would keep it the same it was before? When and or if how psychedelics fit into the picture depends on you.

Took me 1000ug before I experienced ego death so can relate.

All of the above and none of the above.

You'll do this sober you just won't be aware of it. The mind is a weasel.

An ogre is like an onion.

Whatever gets you to your desires in the most satisfactory way.

You about to give my ego an existential crisis. ?

That is stuff your body is trying to get rid of because it doesn't need it. Definitely get help for this. Anal stimulation in of itself isn't too abnormal. Find a person who will have anal sex with you. But right now this looks like it is approaching masturbation addiction level territory.

Who decides what is better ? What if drinking beer all day is best to them? You have all the control

I think a good analogy is an ocean. Stay on the shallow side and you can see pretty far down but can't really investigate it well. You got lots of sunlight and can see the surface of the water. The deeper you journey, the sunlight and surface fades. And you begin to see more and more of the depths you can't even see from the surface. It's dark though so it takes more effort also to really piece it together.

US. In east Tennessee grew up here but I've been to Chicago, Illinois San Francisco, California and the general dfw area, Texas I love the mountains, close enough to the beach to be drivable but not suffer from hurricanes. I live in a valley so tornadoes are hard to form. Earthquakes almost never happen. It is very rural which is great for consciousness work and sight seeing. It's also incredibly cheap to live in. $500/mo for rent for a 3 bedroom apartment vs like $1k+ in San Francisco for a 1 bedroom lol

There's more than diet to consider. Body factors like metabolism which ties into health conditions as well as exercise. I eat very unhealthy and I'm skinny. Can't gain wait. The body will slow down as you age too. These people are in their 60+ Not to mention there are many degrees of how conscious one is. You could be conscious on one thing but neglect another. Nobody is done. Also consider weight can be misleading in determining health. Fat and skinny perceptions vary between people and there's a range there where it all is healthy and that range also varies a bit by individual which is why it is important to keep up with doctors. Health is a complicated thing that you might be over simplifying. You can eat whatever you want. If it's not healthy and for long enough you'll reap the consequences though. Or you could bet on being an outlier.

When I was a kid I desperately wanted to experience what it's like to be other forms of life. (the idea of breathing underwater wowed me) There were supposed spells you could find everywhere and they all focused on conviction and visualization. Interesting connection lol

Amazes me how people keep up when there is already so much content to contemplate already lol

Yes we are on the same page now. It was your first reply that threw me off.

I was thinking about signs in the world the other day and got mind fucked by this: me noticing a sign and interpreting it as such is me being directed where I need to go BUT me not interpreting a sign is also doing the same thing. Even people who are so against signs they do the opposite thing! The universe is you! It knows exactly what to show you and exactly what to do to get what it wants. God's will accounts for all.

My job is home based and requires me to be online and to be informed on today's social media culture. It's search engine ad evaluation. It has been a huge help since I don't currently own a car. The career I want to pursue is also programming so I'd need a radical path change to avoid actually using it. I'm actually waiting on a potential paid internship for that. Not to mention just keeping contact with people. My biggest distractions personally are Facebook, YouTube, and video games. For Facebook I unfollowed everything that's not tech news to limit how much I am exposed to controversy especially and to keep it in the realm of topics I should stay updated on. For video games I try and make myself work so many hours before I can play. For YouTube I limit how much distracting content I watch to a handful of you tubers and try to keep my view time to only when I am working. That distraction actually allows me to focus longer because I don't feel bored. I'm aware it's only a worthy temporary solution though.
