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.

@reves I find 1P-LSD harder to manage than DPT, so you are more than ready for it.

As I said, it has a crazy steep learning curve. Just embrace it and have fun with it. Don't focus on the sex, focus on the growth and adventure of it.

You want both.
Truth is of course core. But that by itself is not enough for a good life. You need passions outside of spirituality. You need some kind of career, hobbies, etc.
Pick one career and pick one hobby. And also you will pursue truth.

Both can work, both have their pros and cons. It's about finding what aligns with you and your partner(s).
It's gonna be difficult either way. There is no easy fix to relationships. They require work.

Charisma

Pat's MLM was not like those really scammy MLMs. It was a life insurance FMO company which he then sold for $100M. Pat built a legit sales company. Credit to him for that.

It's a game.
If you are gonna be radically honest, expect your survival to be seriously jeopardized. Why do you think most people are so dishonest? Just for kicks?
Honesty can get you killed.

Eating raw foods definitely improves clarity of mind. The challenge is getting enough calories and doing all the prep work since you gotta make it all yourself. It's a huge volume of matter just to chew through. It's also very expensive.

Do it seriously for a few years, then move on to other things.

Of course I get that logic. But it's just bad logic because LSD doesn't merely change the scenery of your dream, it massively raises consciousness.
The real test of your awakening is not taking psychedelics, but something more akin to torture or getting hit in the head with a hammer.
Can you still maintain your awakening when you don't get enough thyroid hormone for example? Surgically remove your thyroid gland and then stop taking thyroid hormone supplements and see how long you can maintain awakeness without T3. That's your real test.
Or just try not sleeping for 5 days and see how awake you still are then.

It is possible, but not realistic. And your level of realization, even if it does happen, will be very low.

@Joker_Theory Perceptions don't have to change. You just realize that your body is already God. God is exactly what you see now, minus the ego.
A change in your state of consciousness is required. This is accomplished with spiritual practices like self-inquiry, meditation, psychedelics, yoga, etc. The practices must be done rigorously.

Because they are workaholics who got nothing else going on.
If they had even an ounce of spiritual sense they would not be promoting such crap lifestyles.
The most successful people tend to be unbalanced, obsessive workaholics. Because that does tend to produce success. But at what cost? There is way more to life than business success. To reduce life to that is an abomination onto God. So it's no wonder that these people are godless materialists.

You will burn out and ruin your health and relationships.

Who gives a fuck? Just talk to more girls.
Stop caring at all about rejection.
Let 3000 girls reject you. Just stop thinking about it and get on with life.

What are you gonna do in 30 minutes? It takes that long just to drive to where the girls are.
I suppose daygame requires less time. But it's hard to practice much with daygame.

You will never get good with this level of investment and seriousness.

As a beginner, you need that 30 min for a good warm-up itself already.

But if you seriously only have only 30 mins per day, see if you can do 2-3 hours for just 1 day per week. This way you can get a quality session in and tap into flow / state.

A classic newbie mistake is expecting this to be easy because of your ego and because of all these PUA coaches selling it to you. This work is brutal, have proper expectations and mindset otherwise you will give up very fast. You will need to invest serious time, energy, and work into it. You will also need to invest serious time into analyzing your approaches after your sessions.

The point of freedom is to use it to allow yourself to commit to -- and pursue like a motherfucker -- your top values.
Freedom is not for sitting around playing games and jerking off. Freedom is about being free to be highly creative in the way that is most meaningful to you.

3hrs per night x 3 nights/week would be a great foundation.
That would be the minimum you need to get good at game.

It kicks in within 3 minutes. At the 4 minute mark it feels like you are in a new reality, although the room still looks the same. The shift in consciousness is so dramatic that you start to feel sick and nauseous. It feels like you are no longer yourself but some kind of higher-dimensional being.

That's what is meant by higher level of development.
It's not an accident that the more conservative one is, the more racist, xenophobic, sexist, and tribal one is.
Liberals are generally more developed than conservatives. But there will be plenty of exceptions to this so be careful not to stereotype all conservatives as lower.

This is common, especially for men, who value freedom.
This is where getting very clear about your values is important.
Yes, committing to big things like business, family, kids, marriage is a big deal. You have to really decide you want them, otherwise don't do it. However, also, don't be stuck in analysis paralysis forever. Sit down, think it through, then decide which path is most likely to align with your top values and start making some commitments.
Kids is the most serious commitment. All the other ones you can pretty easily undo if you really change your mind.
Remember, the point of being free is to be free to commit to the things you really value. Don't glorify freedom for its own sake. You can start by making a smaller commitment, like with a pet. And see how it feels.

More precisely: Self-Love!
Why would a woman want to sleep with a man who doesn't love himself? That would be so stupid of her, since a man is made or broken by his level of confidence. A man without confidence is like a horse with 3 legs.

No, at this point I just follow my feelings. I do as I feel rather than following any kind of mechanical rules.
With that said, today I meditated for about 3 hours. Because that's what felt right.
