It's restocking time. The classic 4-AcO-DMT is already in the cart and 1P-LSD is covered. I use psychedelics mostly for self-actualization work : from your own experience, are there other lesser known RCs that are worth trying? No talking about sourcing.

@outlandish I've been drawn to mescaline ever since I read The Doors of Perception by Aldous Huxley. I'll do some more research and buy the analogue that seems the most adequate for me. I'll make sure to post a report here once I do a decent dose.

What about mescaline analogues? Escaline and proscaline are pretty easy to find, I might try one of those two.

I've seen some reports of ETH-LAD. It seems very interesting indeed! I've had some 5-MeO-DMT on my hands for quite some time. I'm simply not ready to give this substance a proper go... I'd rather get comfortable with substances that are less intense first. Shortage in supply of 4-AcO-DMT are coming soon?

How much cannabis did you consume?

Thank you @Girzo ! Does DPT have potential for personal development though? It seems to me it's way beyond that kind of stuff, at least at first sight.

I'm reading One Robe, One Bowl right this moment : In the introduction, it says that Ryokan received his certification after getting his enlightenment. I'm missing something though. How can we be sure that one is enlightened? Can one simply fake his enlightenment in order to receive his certification? P.S.: Incredible book! If you haven't read it already, please do it. Very powerful and beautiful poetry, it will make you want to become a monk!

@Anton_Pierre Do it.

Thanks for the insight

Mostly 4-AcO-DMT for now. I would like to experiment more with 1P-LSD, but the longer duration of the substance makes it difficult to do so.

Hi @BornToBe, I trip once or twice a month Thank you for the clear answer.

Thank you Natasha I really appreciated the video!

@Leo Gura My bad, I edited my comment.

Edited out.

This is very interesting, I'm looking forward to watching your video on the topic! Curiosity knows no bounds.

This subforum isn't the place to talk about this nonsense. Focus on your own growth instead of regurgitating this kind of material at us.

What axectly does this video have to do with meditation or consciousness or enlightenment or spirituality or psychedelics or lucid dreaming or alternative healing or paranormal or new age?

@wk197 1. Yes, it's okay to smoke DMT as an effort to improve your life. Although, the insights you might be far off from what you are looking for. Taking lesser psychedelics might be a better idea if you want to focus on basic personal development. 2. The majority of people smoke it. Some people in this thread suggested plugging it, but as Leo and others said, plugging 100+mg of a substance might be tricky. Another good technique is IV, but please do not consider this if you don't have prior experience with the technique. 3. Set and setting. Are you in a safe environment? Do you have dangerous objects close to you? Do you have an experienced trip sitter with you? Are you mentally well at the time of taking the substance? Etc. You can't really "prevent" a bad trip. Sometimes they happen out of the blue, when you expect it the least. All you need to do when this happen is surrender to the experience and learn what you can from it afterward.

@LittleMaslow 5-MeO is non-regulated in Canada, which means it's in a gray state between legal and illegal. You cannot get it over the counter. Most suppliers are online shops that deliver the product to you by mail. No shops need a license to sell the substance, they just need availability. There are some retreats you can make here that give you the opportunity to try 5-MeO, but I don't have a lot of knowledge about that so I'm reluctant to say anything about it. Hope that helps

@Shin Thanks Shin, I'll be sure to check that out

Sex is something that is absolutely incredible, and I want to become extremely good at it. It's been on the back of my mind ever since I first started personal development. I wouldn't say that I'm bad at sex right now, but I'm simply nowhere near as good as a man can be, far from it. I don't want to just be alright, I want to excel at it. In your opinion, beside Leo's videos about the subject, what are the ultimate best ressources to learn how to have amazing sex? What has worked the best for you? Any book recommendations?

@Etherial Cat Looks nice! I might purchase that one, it seems great for the price tag. Thank you

I will, thanks a lot

Is being conscious of itself a fundamental property of consciousness? If so, are animals conscious of themselves / conscious that they exist? What about bacteria? What about that rock over there?
