@Nahm I haven't watched it yet; too busy at the moment. But I love me some Wim Hoff and psychedelics.

@Nahm Wow, I had no idea this show was touching upon these topics. There have been a lot of warnings from doctors and public health officials in the media here in Iceland. Now I see why. ?

Why do you assume it ends, maybe it's just a new beginning. Have you personally died?

But that's only relative to survival, not the ultimate truth.

@SickLuv Leo's teachings are the highest I've found so far. Ken Wilber is excellent at mapping out all of this work, but I think Leo is one of few who's reached supermind or "clear light" with direct experience AND has a deep understanding of broad topics such as epistemology and metaphysics; his latest awakening video was just a clear look at what supermind looks like. I like to blend in older teachers such as Sadhguru, Osho, Wilber and Ralston for their wisdom and experience in this field. But ultimately you are your highest Authority, make sure you don't give it away to anyone - not even Leo.

Lucid dreaming, meditation, self-inquiry.

@Leo Gura Maybe Aubrey is still open to inviting you.

I DID IT! I achieved my first lucid dream tonight! It was so real I was questioning it throughout the dream. It happened as I woke up after 6-hour sleep accidentally. I had been listening to Andrew Holecek on the "Inspire Nation" podcast talk about dream yoga and lucid dreaming. When I woke up I was awake for probably almost an hour, because of a family emergency. I then head back to sleep - IT wasn't even that I was trying to sleep, I more so meditating lying in bed. All of a sudden every thought turned into a vision like I was tripping; a crystal clear image. Then I find myself in a dream, I did not know I was lucid yet, but my first instinct was to do a reality check and count my fingers. There were 6-7 of them morphing around like some kind of tentacle fingers (still human-looking, but noodly). I can not stop thinking of how happy I was having achieved it. And even though I was super excited in the dream, I didn't wake up as I asked a dream character how I could stay lucid longer and get more clarity. By a surprise, he said "walk down some stairs, and you will increase the lucidity", I took that advice and It worked, I was lucid for probably 20 minutes. I'm certain that the advice he gave only worked because I believed him, so I wanted it to happen really badly - and so it did. Conclusions: This is a field I am going to master. It's blatantly clear to me the power of what this can do, It was SO REAL, it's hard to describe. It felt just as real as reality, which makes waking life feel more like a dream. Alongside Dream Yoga and Sleep Yoga where one is aware in deep sleep as nothing but an observer, pure awareness. I could feel within the dream how weird it felt to talk to dream characters, I felt so connected to my deep subconscious which for the most part is locked up and hard to get to. It was also clear that the subconscious is not some evil version of you which want but the worst. It's an innocent victim of experiences you've been through. I am going to use lucid dreaming to purify myself while in sleep, and have some nondual experiences. I will be studying this subject more today in the hopes of going back in there tonight. FUCK YEAH

Don't expect your first trip to be all rainbows and sunshine. You have to tread the waters and purify yourself first before you go focusing on truth and such deep topics. So just go in with good intentions, to begin with.

@Arzola I like the paperbacks too much that I'll keep on just buying them. As Leo said, you can't be cheap with this stuff. But a kindle will do also.

Osho still had lots of sex and money Sadhguru rides his motorcycles and plays golf You don't have to give anything up to become enlightened (other than your false identity); you're way worse off denying them rather than transcend and include.

Seth Godin

@steenadrianmr Yeah maybe next time when you trip, don't do it under such uncertainty?. Set and setting are always a priority as you probably know by now.

Chapter 12: Only read 10 pages today, I got quite carried away watching some Sadhguru videos. The man has such deep and profound wisdom on life that it's very easy to get lost in them. Other than that, not much happened. Been quite a weird week which has pushed my Kriya practice back several days. I will likely not start it until some time this mid-week or next week. But I want to get a few sessions before my upcoming mushroom trip. Other: Meditated for 50 minutes, I will be upping each session by 10 minutes now on - then probably 5. But I feel like I need a new technique; been doing the "do nothing" tech for a little while now and I want to switch it up a little. There are some meditation exercises in Osho's 112 meditations; I'd love to try them all out each for a few days to see which one works best. But I won't start it until I finish Ken's book.

@Zigzag Idiot

Sorry but that's the most ridiculous thing I ever heard in my life. Most of my deepest trips have been with120-250µg. It's not a competition of how big of a dose you can take. If it's not tolerance (which it probably is), then it's your dealer is selling you weaker tabs. If you wait from now until summer for your next trip, 150-200 will be well well enough.

@steenadrianmr I never get confused on LSD myself, just really really clean direct contact to god. Mushrooms for me are more of a mindfuck.

@Yog Yeah and the crazy thing is they sometimes have kind of non-dual lyrics, at least I've heard some in Meshuggah and Tool.

@Zigzag Idiot I'm exactly the same man, I've lived on my grandpas and uncle's farm most of my life. I'm from the city and live here legally. But I kind of spent all of my childhood on the farm and lived there for the past 4-5 years, working in construction, electricity, and farming. You learn a lot from doing that type of work. Wouldn't have had it any other way, and I'm sure you agree. As we both found our way here. You're always welcome if you visit Iceland.

I am thankful to have found this path

@Yog Yet there is something so addictive about it. The haunted terrors I've always been fascinated by. One time I listened to Meshuggah on LSD and WOOOOW, it really takes you to the dark side of reality. Which is quite awesome if you have a healthy mind to do so.

? ? ?

The only thing that is stopping you from doing that is yourself. Any answer you'll get here, you will fail to follow and probably end up doing nothing. Sit in silence and question it. Why do you do this, what action can you take, etc. You have all the answers.

Iceland is VERY expensive...in every way.

That's way worse, I ordered one 20$ book from amazon and it ended up being around 50$ in the end with shipping and tax. I'm very happy with book-depository tho, It says when it dispatches from the warehouse. So if the days are matching for all of the books (usually says "Dispatches in 2 days), if they all have the same date - they arrive together.
