Whats the reasoning behind it?

I'm talking about grave deformities, crippling neurological problems and al sorts of prenatal defects. Even something as simple as a kid being bullied due to having an extra finger etc. Im doing research about wether its ethical to let a kid who's going to have an extreme health and psychological problems be born. Its for a school project and I have to present opposite postures. One one side, the no abortion under any circumstance (that's easy to explain) and the other side (abort under certain circumstances). Oh, also consider how the parents/families life drastically changes and all that. What are your thoughts on the topic? Please try to give some easier to understand arguments as this this is for school hehe. The non-dual riddled part of the discussion would be very difficult to integrate in a school project. However, feel free to write it anyways, im interested in all of your answers.

@Proserpina Why would it look like schizo or psychosis?

@Matthew85 what kinds of stuff are you talking about? Specifically

@GreenWoods And why is manipulation in dreams and lucid dreams much more common and easy than in regular physical material reality?

@Nahm Denial of what?

@vizual I know but it’s safe to assume that as of today most are. Key word being most

They just created sides to pick

@Nahm @Leo Gura Besides the procedure getting more risky the more you wait, why do you think setting a time limit for an abortion (12 weeks, 24, etc) is such a polemic subject. And why are blue spiral, christians, and people like that are so neurotically fixed on no abortion under any circumstances?

I think it is even more immoral to force someone to live a life of disability and suffering. I mean, maybe once they come to they world they’ve got no choice but to enjoy life whatever way they can. Perhaps if you’re enlightened you understand it really doesn’t matter but how can you even get to that point if you’ve got some crippling mental retardation or e you’re too broken down emotionally due to some other birth defect. I think the key point here is forcing someone into living that kind of life.

@Leo Gura You're forgetting the folks back at Mexico. Some psychedelics like Peyote and some shrooms have been "legal" for some years now. They allow the use for protection of the indigenous cultural diversity. For the rituals and stuff, but you don't have to be a registered member of the indigenous community to be able to take part in it. However it is not legal to sell, transport and all that, mostly because some psychedelic plants are getting extinct due to over extraction (also the Bufo Alvarius toad). So the restriction comes mostly from an environmental side. Also the current president has already decriminalised weed nation-wide. And he seems to have a liking for decriminalisation . Ande we are mostly stage blue heheheh and quite radical in my opinion. (with some orange spiral sprinkled on top) So anyone coming to Latin America for the psychedelic tourism make sure that your guide or whatever is sourcing the medicine responsibly.

Or high consciousness story. I’m guessing that’s attached to a enlightened author.

Are you sure about that? I don't think creativity is exempt from one's self deception.

What I've Learned. Superb and well researched (mainly science) channel. He mostly uploads about health (diet) but lately he's being diversificó into psychology, addictions, learning etc. Really worth watching. channel: https://www.youtube.com/c/WhatIveLearned/videos and some sample videos:

I haven't actually watched the video yet, I just saw the thumbnail the other day and when I saw your post I remembered. This guy always uploads superb content. All his videos are extremely well researched, and you'll probably be able tu pull some articles or if you're lucky a book from the video. Hopefully you finde some aid. Ill def watch it after this.

I've seen Wim Hoff do something similar. I've got no specific details, but I know he's personally taught some fortunate people.

@Leo Gura Would you recommend to postpone it and go to the enlightened authors?

@Leo Gura Simple enough.

After some nasty experience with LSD (2 y/ago) I want to try it again. My first concern comes with dosage. I did 100 mics last time and was a little heavy on me, mostly due to improper psychological preparation. Im not sure if I after two years it will still be too much. Note that during this time I studied more about psychedelics, and the mind, and meditated more, etc. (specially during the more recent times) so I would definitely say I am more prepared. However I still have my doubts about being able to handle a 11ug, but I think less than a 100 (75ug to be precise) is borderline useless. Also Im interested in knowing specific tips and ideas and techniques from your experience on how can I focus my trip on spiritual growth. Im particularly drawn to having a breakthrough or experiencing ego death and on how to enable this experiences. I set this as top priority for my trip, the main focus. Thank you all for your help.

It feels as if I'm doing the spiritual work out of some mindless automatic behavior. I get the feeling that this is what I should be doing and I would trashing my life and time otherwise (which probably is the case). But I don't seem to get that feeling so many people describe here and that maybe at some point at the beginning of the journey I got; that feeling of mystery, awe, and of the purest curiosity. I know discovering reality's most inner workings and secrets should be a task meant to be fulfilled out of its own sake, but that's far from what's going on with me here. Right now its just a bland, black and white sense of duty with some fear of missing out thrown in there. Thats what is driving my (poor) progress right now. It seems I've temporarily (hopefully just that) lost drive and honest motivation, not to mention the curiosity to keep the pace with the spirituality. How can I bring back the old feeling or better yet bring on new and fresh energy and a sense of the incredible unknown? And replace the current homework like ambient.

Isn't it too small a dose? Any tips for raising the probability?

@Nahm So the routine, if there must be one, should be reduced to meditation, contemplating and breathing exercises (and other stuff of this nature)? and let the trip run its natural course? I imagine light will be shun to whatever needs to be revealed (for example, the fact that limiting beliefs are just that ) all by its self; no agenda or outcome should be pushed.

@Nahm And once in the trip how am I supposed to work limiting beliefs (for example)? Should I make a list of them and start analyzing them?

Probably should’ve mentioned I’m quite sensitive hehe

What would you suggest? Apart from psychedelics..
