I fully identify with that You know of a more fun alternative?

I got into subliminals 3 weeks ago, and have been listening to them on average around 19 hours each day. Results so far: positive impact on my sleep yoga practice visualizations are more vivid I had caught a cold. I felt like I was going to get ill in the evening. My head was a bit hot. I slept. In the morning I had this typical feeling of being ill. But I didn't have very strong cold symptoms. I listened for 1 hour to health subliminals. Then I felt slightly better, then I slept 3 hours. And then I was basically almost back to normal. I never had such a quick recovery. I also had been having a small itchy rash on my hand for around 2 weeks. When I woke up from these 3 hours of sleep (after the 1 h of listening to the health subliminals) it was almost fully gone. (btw the health subs were from "Absolute Power Subliminals" and "Ataraxy") Deeper non-dual baseline consciousness (though that could easily be due to other stuff) meditations are deeper better dream recall During the first week I saw very faint DMT imagery in the dark. Similiar to those I saw on day 2 on my dark room retreat. I feel physically stronger Most results are subtle so far. But noticable. There are a lot of tricks to subliminals. Without them, results take a lot longer or don't manifest at all. I'm still gathering information and experience. I plan on making a more detailed post within the next weeks. My biggest tip, listen to "Absolute Power Subliminals ". That guy is an absolute legend. Listen to the improved version of the Concordia booster (and listen in wav, not mp3) It could well be the most powerful sublimal on earth : https://www.patreon.com/posts/extra-strength-41696554 The affirmations are repeated 1.8×e^4240 times per second. and he says " I made enough different pitches of the voices to attempt to replicate 1,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 (1 septillion) different voices" such that the subconscious can tell apart the different layers. The mainstream understanding is that the subconscious can't process the affirmations when they are layered and sped up that much. Here is his answer to someone asking him about that: " https://www.psychologytoday.com/us/blog/sensorium/201812/experiments-suggest-humans-can-directly-observe-the-quantum Experiments have shown that humans can possibly sense things on a quantum (super-small, generally pure vibrational or energetic) scale. If we can sense something, that means that it was processed by the subconscious mind meaning that the subconscious is capable of processing much more information than most people seem to realize. This would also contradict the commonly accepted belief that the subconscious is only capable of processing ~40 million pieces of information per second. Sound is formed by vibrations in the audible frequency range and vibrations are also energy. Energy cannot be created or destroyed, only transformed meaning that even with tons of layering and speeding the information carried by the sound isn't lost. The sound vibrations (and the information they carry) just get more and more compressed together. Subconscious reprogramming can also be called re-patterning. Re-patterning means that your subconscious patterns are being changed and this is done through repetition priming. The more you repeat the affirmations, the faster the subconscious patterns change which leads to changing your beliefs, thoughts, mindsets and everything else that makes you, you. This knowledge caused me to realize that affirmations can be sped up by a lot and still be effective, which is something I tested on myself for a while. I started feeling subliminals kick in faster the more times the affirmations were repeated. Subliminals don't normally kick in until the re-patterning is starting to happen which lead me to believe that the amount of repetitions per second directly correlates to the speed of re-patterning. Right now, I'm actually on a mission to figure out how many times the affirmations need to be repeated to make the subconscious fully re-pattern as quickly as possible. I've continued to speed and layer the Concordia booster after releasing it to the public and right now the version I'm using is at 4.4e3063 repetitions per second. It feels a lot stronger which means that I'm getting closer to figuring this out so I'm continuing to layer and speed further for as long as it takes to figure out exactly how many repetitions cause instant re-patterning. It won't be 100% accurate, of course, because the Concordia booster has over 1 million affirmations and subliminals with less affirmations probably won't need to be repeated as much but it will give me a general idea. I have a gut feeling that I'll only need to get the amount of repetitions to the X.Ye5000 range but the only way I'll know for sure is by testing that idea and it could take me a while to get there". Anyway, many people including me get results from these sped up subliminals. And I doubt very much that it's purely placebo.

Why? Did you get no results?

The external world, including other conscious people are real or not real to the same extend that your past is real or not real. From the perspective that your past never happened, the external world (including other people) isn't real. From the perspective that your past did happen, other people and their experience is real as well. If you believe that your past is more real than the experience of other people (in terms of direct experience), then contemplate, what is the difference between what you did 5 minutes ago and the experience of being Trump? There is no difference. Both imagination. You don't have direct experience of a past. You have direct experience of memories of a "past". Memories = imagination. If you want, you can imagine any random sensory experience of being Trump. This imagined sensory experience is metaphysically the same as memories of a sensory experience you had 5 minutes ago. The imagined sensory experience of Trump is not the same as his 'actual' experience, in terms of content. But it is equal in terms of its realness or substance. Seeing a horse in direct experience is no more metaphysically real than visualizing a unicorn in direct experience. However, practically speaking, the horse has more relevance/significance/meaning for this body-mind, so it is practical to treat the horse as more real than the unicorn. But it's not more real, just more relevant. Also, from the same perspective, what happened 5 seconds ago has the same degree of realness as what happened 5 years ago. And that which happened 5 years ago has the same realness as what happened in your last incarnation (which you would see if the amnesia veil were lifted. Which can happen if you go to an advanced psychic, or after death). Which has the same realness as your incarnation 1000000 years ago. Which has the same realness as any other incarnation of you (God). which has the same realness as being Trump. Thus, what you experienced 5 seconds ago has the same realness as Trump's actual sensory experience.

Religious Approach - Tibetan Sleep Routines Tibetan buddhists have developed some methods which can make it easier. For example certain sleep positions, but for the most part, it's about visualizations. I don't practice these methods, but if you are interested, read "the tibetan yogas of dream and sleep" by Tenzin Wangyal Rinpoche. - Help by Spirits Any spirit (but particularly ascended masters, deities and angels) can help you to develop the sleep yoga skill. How? by giving you advice by attracting the right circumstances that encourage/favour you developing the skill. (Similar to how some law of attraction manifestation works) by directly helping you develop that skill. If you are lucky, it can work similiar to how devotees can become enlightened by being in the presence of a very awake master. One explanation of how that works is: Everytime you are around people, there is some exchange of aura energy. Thats how you can empathically pick up someone's emotions. And thats why your state can change due to being around other people. This is usually insignificant (in terms of awakening) and only temporary but the aura of a master is far more itense, therefore you can get a permanent awakening by being in his presence. The same way that a master can directly cause you to get enlightened, a spirit can theoretically cause you to have the sleep yoga skill. Whether that works, depends on many factors. In most cases, it probably works but only very subtly, such that no big improvement is seen. Still worth a try. Which spirits can help for sleep yoga? Salgye Du Dalma. Worshipped by tibetan buddhists for sleep yoga. She is mentioned in detail (and how she can help.) In the above-mentioned book (I've seen the exact same text about her somewhere online as well (copied from the book). you should find it within 5 minutes. Just search for Salgye Du Dalma. There are not many webpages about her.) I'm pretty sure Buddha and Babaji both were/are conscious during sleep Hypnos, the greek god of sleep But really, I guess any spirit can help to some extend. Though the more the spirit is associated with sleep or alertness, the better. God. Praying to God How to contact and interact with the spirit? Just telepathically reach out to the spirit. Speak words loud, or use your thoughts, or your intention alone,... Every materialist will say you are BSing yourself and nothing more. But I am sure, you are actually telepathically connecting/communicating with spirits. The accuracy and intensity of the connection then depends on your intuition, psychic skills, focus,..... Though that's mostly about 'hearing' their response. The sending out part ( that the spirit 'hears' you) always works fine enough, I believe. Even if your telepathic skills are very weak. If you are into rituals, you can look up what the particular spiritual tradition has developed over the centuries to make contact more accurate and intense. Though I think the above mentioned simple approach can be enough (and I prefer it). And then you can just humbly ask for help and advice. Perhaps pray or chant if you like. But is not necessary. At least not when contacting ascended masters or angels. You can just communicate with them (I think Salgye Du Dalma can be included in that category). When contacting deities, most traditional people give something in return (for example food, water, devotion, singing, candle light,...). In the past, they even built actual temples.

I have 3 ideas (to apply while lucid dreaming): 1. Materialize 5-me0-dmt and take it 2. kill yourself. ( Purpose: 1. overcome the fear of dying. and 2. having an enlightenment experience) 3. Doing self inquiry and contemplate Might they work? 1.Taking psychedelics while lucid dreaming might not change one's state of consciousness or it might require that you already had an enlightenment experience before (that your mind knows what to imagine). 2. It might not be possible to kill yourself while in a lucid dream because the bullet or knife might just pass through your body without harming you. If you do manage to die, then you probably wake up instead of becoming God. 3. That should work: Has anyone tried 1. or 2. in a lucid dream? Or has experience with lucid dreaming and might thus evaluate the probability whether they might work? If it might work then it would be worth the time needed to develop the lucid dreaming skill.

FILD for Sleep Yoga When you are approaching sleep, the danger is very high that you just end up stop FILDing without you noticing it. Tips to remain conscious: - Counting You could mentally chant "FILD", in order to better keep your attention on doing FILD. But even better is if you mentally count. This engages your mind more. To make it more challenging you could count only every second number. Or count backwards from 100. Challenge yourself! You must count prefectly. If you get distracted, you must start counting from 0 again. After your sleep yoga session, write your highest number down. make it your challenge, a motivation, to beat that the next time. Additionally, count how often you turn off the alarm. Apart from it further engaging your mind, it also puts attention towards the alarm clocks. This makes it more likely that you will hear them if they ring after you fell asleep. And, if you know the time you started the practice, the time when you finished and the set snoozing time, you can calculate how many times the alarm rang. Thus you can check whether you noticed every alarm, or slept through some. - Alarm clocks If you don't listen to anything (music, binaural beats,..), then it's easier to wake up from the alarm. Because the contrast between "no alarm" and "alarm ringing " is higher. The binaural beats from Jody Hatton are quite silent, so they might be ok. Challenge yourself! Try to notice/register the alarm as quickly as possible. But before you are allowed to turn it off, you must quickly, but seriously reflect, "have I been fully conscious or was I asleep?????". You don't wanna know how often I basically was asleep, woke up, turned the alarm snooze, and went back to sleep wihout hesitation or any considerations. Sometimes literally every couple of minutes, the whole session. As though someone had removed my brain. Therfore, you must always reflect before snoozing the alarm!!!! If you notice that you are in zombie mode and have been unconscious, GET UP!!!! And continue later. Otherwise you are extremely likely to just fall unconscious again. no matter your determination. (This applies if you are sleep deprived. If you practice sleep yoga without being sleep deprived or just being very tired, then other rules apply. In that case, you might want exactly such a situation. From there, you might manage DEILDs. Or get to the void the DEILD way.) I wear headphones so neighbours don't hear the alarm clocks. So you need an alarm clock app that can play the alarm only through the headphones. There are many such apps. But few apps that have deailed setting options. For example for the snooze length. You also want it to have an easy way to make it snooze. I use "sleep as android". I can trigger snooze by pushing the volume regulator buttons on my phone. Thus I can turn it snooze with almost no movement involved (I keep my fingers on the volume regulator buttons). - Ideas for different Hand and Finger Variations You could do FILD with both hands at once. (Some time ago I heard a kriya yogi say that splitting your focus results in a different kind of concentration. an enhanced concentration. He recommended focusing on both hands at once while meditating in order to more easily enter a no-mind focused meditative state) You could do the index finger movement with one hand and the middle finger movement with the other hand. Alternating. Rather than moving 2 fingers to and fro as if playing a piano, lightly press your thumb and index finger together. Press, relax, press, relax..... same rhytm as with normal FILD. You can do that while holding your hand in the air. Hold your arm vertically up, supported by your ellbow on a surface (mattress, couch). I practice on my couch. I place the ellbow close to the edge in such a way that if I lose consciousness and my arm drops, it drops further, past the edge of the couch. thus there is more movement and it gets more momentum. Thus more likely it will wake you up. - FILD variations as Deepeners Do the "index finger press to thumb FILD" with both hands. Associate "mind awake" with one hand and "body asleep" with the other. You basically tell/programm your subconscious that every FILD movement with one hand results in you getting more alert, and withe the other hand results in your body getting sleepier, falling asleep. Now you have more control. When your body is too awake, do FILD with that hand, if you are too little alert, do FILD with the other hand. You can of course do both at once Just a 3 second decision of which hand means which (and sticking with it) will be enough for your subconscious to know which hand means which. But you can make it clearer if you want, by for example tying a yellow or orange or red cloth around the mind awake hand. And a blue or black around the body asleep hand. Or whatever color you would associate it with. Or just write awake or sleepy on your hand. you could also place the body asleep hand on your body, while placing the mind awake hand close to your head (I keep it in the air, supported by my ellbow on the surface, as described before). In the beginning, or when it seems good, couple the FILD movement with intention. Try to will your body into either asleep or mind awake. But most of the time, I recommend you completely leave it to the subconscious. Don't even think about it. But know that your subconscious is doing the job, even if you don't notice an immediate difference/effect in sleepiness or alertness. I regard FILD as the core, the other tools (from my previous posts) are mainly fine-tuning.

@ucan99 Yes, when you do sleep yoga you can also have lucid dreams. In fact, all your dreams will be lucid. Sleep yoga is much more difficult than having lucid dreams. If you are serious, lucid dreams can be achieved relatively easily: Do 5-10+ very short WBTBs every night Do 300-600 quick reality checks every day spend 45 minutes trying to remember and journelling your dreams, every day Experiment with MILD and DEILD apply many minor tricks and tips After 2 weeks even a beginner should have many lucid dreams. Possibly, several every day.

Progresss Update During the last weeks of 2020, I wasn't practicing every day. But during the past 4 weeks I was consistent. During the past 2 weeks I finally started making noticable progress. I think I've been fully conscious while my body was asleep several times. The longest was maybe around 1 minute. I wasn't in the void yet. I still perceived the body. But it felt very weird. and my state of consciousness was very different from normal trance. Difficulties - Difficulty1 I have had far less time to practice than envisioned because I sleep too little. The less you sleep (or rather the lesser your sleep need) the less time you are able to practice. Without sleep yoga I sleep 8-9 hours a day, but due to my particular sleep yoga schedule, I only slept around 3-4 hours on average during the past 4 weeks. Usually I have 90 minutes of deliberate sleep around midnight (for deep sleep) and then I do sleep yoga whenever I feel tired. As my practice is about only allowing my body to fall asleep if the mind remains awake, virtually the only sleep I get from that so far is when I fail and accidentally fall asleep. Now, the damn problem I'm facing is that I'm far less tired than I should be. Despite 3-4 hours of average sleep, Im hardly any more tired (at least during normal waking hours) than when I was having 8-9 hours. Which means only little opportunity to practice. 90 minutes are spent on deliberate sleep without sleep yoga practice. and then, the only reason I even get to 3-4 hours on average is beacuse of days where I accidentally oversleep and have 3-6 hours of sleep. I'm perplexed that I'm hardly tired. I guess the cause is: Strong intent to only sleep when I'm conscious during it. This leads to little sleep + My strong eagerness for sleep yoga. Which unfortunately seems to conjure up energy out of thin air, preventing me from being as tired as I should be. - Difficulty 2 One reason for oversleeping is that my alarm clocks are not always reliable. That is, they do ring, but I don't always wake up, despite using the most brutal alarm sound I could find. They would if I turned up the volume all the way, but I'm not gonna do that because of likely ear damage. - Difficulty 3 Other causes for oversleeping are unwise approach or technique and utter stupidity like not setting an alarm clock every time I sit down to mediate or contemplate. "Im just gonna sit down a brief moment, no way I'm gonna accidentally fall asleep." I will cover tipps and tricks in a future post.

My Current Routine Thought I'd share, so you get a better idea how a more concrete routine can look like. However, I always end up making small changes on my routine daily, and big changes every couple of days, so there is nothing special about this current routine, just one random routine that seems to best fit me today. - Deliberate Sleep: 90 - 200 minutes These delta binaural beats darkness close to the SWS peak if it coincides with my tiredness - Sleep Yoga Session when not extremely tired: lying on a couch or sitting on a chair, head and arms resting on a table If on the couch, optionally hold arm(s) up, supported on elbow(s) FILD alarm clocks snooze every 10 minutes nootropics Either delta or theta binaural beats darkness To increase tiredness: reverse blinking and trance triggers - Sleep Yoga Session when very tired: sitting on a chair, head and arms resting on a table FILD alarm clocks snooze every 5 minutes nootropics gamma brainwave entrainment audio light on. Normal light or only red light, depends on the degree of tiredness

@electroBeam Thanks man! Your posts are the best stuff on the forum! I think, in the future this forum will be about how to get closer to these higher levels of consciousness in peak experiences as well as baseline consciousness, without overloading the body-mind, without doing mahasamadhi. The human body-mind has a limit to how much consciousness it can sustain, beyond that it dies and you have mahasamadhi. I believe the game of the future will be about upgrading the body-mind to sustain more consciousness. This could surely be done through technologies like genetic modification, but I believe it's possible through meditation techniques as well. For example, when someone becomes a breatharian or stops aging, they had to reprogram the body-mind. A similiar reprogramming must be done to sustain these higher levels of consciousness.

Breatharianism is not stronger than psychedelics. It definitely gives your baseline consciousness a huge jump, but doesn't completely awaken you, far far from it. And it can't compare to psychedelics when it comes to peak experiences. These two are breatharians: If someone is interested in learning how to make a gradual transition over the course of many years, read the book " the Food of the Gods" by Jasmuheen, it's the best book on the topic.

@Adamq8

@Chimera Do self inquiry. That's the most basic practice. What is this sense of "I AM"? Meditate on that " I AMness". Where do you end up? At a seperate self or God?

These things would be possible if the ego were God. When Leo says "You are God", he means You, God. And not the ego. The ego is an illusion. God-Realization should always be balanced with no-self realization. Whether this body/mind can jump 10 feet high or not, depends on what God is imagining right now. But just because this body/mind would like to jump 10 feet high, God doesn't suddenly imagine that. God will imagine it when God imagines it (and God does at some point, given the nature of Infinity), and when God doesn't, God doesn't. Any preference of the body/mind doesn't have much impact on that. If there is a desire to jump 10 feet high, observe it closely. Is it the desire of the body/mind or of God? To know God's desire, look at the present moment, what is actual? All that doesn't mean a body/mind can't perform miracles. If it learns how 'creation' or 'manifestation' works it can do it. In that case, God is imagining that the body/mind learns the skill to be able to do it. But really, the miracle isn't performed BY the body/mind, the miracle just IS. Imagined by God.

It's twice the dose lol. And it might not be a linear increase. I don't have much experience with psychedelics, though. I've only taken them twice: 8 and 20 g of wet truffles. The 8 g just gave me some mild oneness. On the 20 g the universe collapsed on the peak. No body, no room, no universe, no memory. I've actually been thinking that I was just unconscious, because I had no recall of it after the trip, only half a year later, suddenly a very tiny memory of it surfaced. Too subtle to be sure whether it is a real memory or not. Anyways, after the peak, memories of having been a human slowly appeared and they made no sense at all during the first minutes. So yeah I guess the 20 g were like 10× as intense as the 8g. So be careful with doubling your dose. And mushrooms are not LSD. Leo wrote some weeks ago something on the lines of that 4 g of dried mushrooms would bring him to the brink of insanity. So if you are fearful of a heroic dose then don't just double the dose lol. What's the issue with increasing the dose by 1 g every time? that's already playing with fire. I believe if I had taken 15g instead of 20 g, it might have turned hellish. So yes, more surrender can happen with higher doses. But if it doesn't, you are totally fucked. I was exremely lucky. The 20g were so heavy, they left no room for resistance. But that was pure luck. I have trouble breathing for long periods as well. For me, it's mainly because too little happens within the first 30 minutes as that it could make up for the amount of willpower you need to keep breathing. Therefore I do a more intense version. Breathing in to the belly, breathing in to the chest, breathing out. Like Wim Hof explains. But I do it as deeply and quickly as I can. After around 40 breaths I have moderate tingly sensations in my hands. After 100 breaths they are crampy and it gets very painful. At that point I either decrease the intensity or do a breath hold and then start over again. The breathholds can eventually get very trippy. If anyone wants to try this version, be careful. No Leo, Wim Hof or any responsible person would recommend it. All the bad side effects are far more likely to happen that way.

Bur you aren't planing to jump from 3 g right to 5-6 g, right? Did you have more than 3g sometime in the past already? You mentioned the purpose of feeling inro tension and emotions and letting it go. Did you try shamanic breathing? Being able to do that feeling-in and letting go during shamanic breathing, might better translate into a baseline skill than doing it on psychedelics . But granted, psychedelics are far more reliable to get you to that place in the first place.

@Corey11 I recommend you add self imquiry / contemplation. This is crucial imo. Just as important as meditation. (or even more important). Self inquiry has 2 parts: see the illsuion of no self. "These Exercises" are extremely good for that put attention on your true Self This is how contemplation works: Once you are more advanced, these 2 tools are most powerful: Psychedelics Sleep Yoga and Dream Yoga (5-MeO-DMT in lucid dreams) More tools: Kriya yoga transmissions shamanic breathing dark room retreat masturbation / sex float tank Devotion and surrender fasting

Oh. yes, you are right. I didn't give that post much thought. I assume it might work something like this: If you go into the forest and gather some mushrooms and the police sees you, then this is probably 0 problem if you take them home, eat too much of them and end up calling the ambulance, you are in trouble And growing them at your home might also be not legal Probably always depends on the country.

I just had another idea for a "Mind Awake" tool: A continuous vibration alarm to keep you awake. - Options: Bed Shaker Vibrator. You can put it below the pillow or put your hand on it. Or put in on your stomach. There are several on amazon.com . On amazon.de I could find only one from the brand Mesqool. Just bought it. Wristband. This seems the only plausible one, on Amazon.com: CoolFire Vibrating Alarm Clock - Silent Alarm Wristband Or use your phone. But I guess the vibratons are too weak. - How to use: Just let it constantly vibrate. You use it as a kind of anchor to retain some consciousness. And it makes it harder to fall asleep. So in that regard it has similiar effects as for example sleeping while sitting. So in order for your body to fall asleep nevertheless, you just need to be more tired. They usually also have normal noise alarm options but you can turn them off Make sure the device is capable of continuously vibrating and doesn't automatically turn itself off after 1 minute or so.

Sleep Yoga Everything I wrote here in this thread can work, but is way too weak. In order to learn sleep yoga (which results in: 2h lucid dreaming + 6h Void meditation each night) check out this thread: Particularly the post of the "Refined Technique". This technique is not only key for sleep yoga, but also if you are just interested in astral projection or WILD.

If you do enough research you will probably find psychedelic plants which naturally grow in your country and thus are legal.

Yes for sure: Do a dark room retreat for 2-6 weeks (results in natural DMT) release + hard core DMT breathing practices (see on youtube). A few weeks ago I did a very intense version of shamanic breathing for around 40 minutes. I also was on day 3 of a dark room retreat. I saw faint but very noticiable DMT imagery and and a very bright light appeared, which I believe could have turned into the tunnel if I breathed for longer. On the breathhold, my consciousness altered so much that I was sure the universe would have collapsed and I would have been in that void without body or anything (only temporary, definitely not mahasamadhi), or at least had an very intense OBE, if I had breathed for longer. (The DMT imagery and the white light was thanks to the dark room retreat, but the altered state of consciousness was purely due to the breathing, I believe.) You can also do fasting during a dark room retreat (also produces DMT) to really supercharge it. Or get good at having OBEs and try to visist them from there. Taking NN, DMT results in an OBE. These OBEs are usually different from normal OBEs because of the DMT. You would have to be a very experienced OBE traveler for that though, otherwise it is likely that you just see imaginad rather than the 'real' dmt entities. Though it really makes no difference either way. To have OBEs, read that post . If you have good intuition, you can just try to communicate with them telepathically. But this is very subtle and has a high likelihood of bsing yourself
