With this recent war mongering and the assassination, if you feel yourself getting angry at Trump, try this. Can you love Trump as a part of reality, as a part of your Self even at the depths of your despise? I think practicing compassion for Trump is a great exercise in Self Love. It doesn't have to be Trump, it can be anyone you strongly despise. Try feeling some love and compassion for them. Try to love them with the same depth as you would your new born child or your own mother. If you can do it, you are beginning to unlock a force that not many humans ever have had access to.

Any of them can become an addiction if you don't like your current reality and find a way to use them for escaping your everyday reality. That being said, psychedelics that have empathogen qualities such as MDMA or the 2c-x compounds probably have more potential for addiction than traditional psychedelics like dmt, psilocybin and lsd.

Maybe some of the 2c-x compunds?

#1 Stop buying shit you don't need. And be honest, you don't need most of the shit you have. If you buy things, buy quality, especially with clothes.

This is to be expected, I'm surprised that there hasn't been a big media fiasco or some kind of bigger backlash yet.

If all our senses were to be just interpretations, how could we derive any truth at all from the world? Isn't everything you know based on your experience regardless of if you trust your senses or not? Wouldn't every interpretation be just as valid? Wouldn't there be an infinite amount of truths, thus no consensus truth at all?

Why should we trust our subjective experiences and our senses to be a good source of what's true? Our senses are not adapted to see reality as it is, they are adapted for survival and gettting our genes forward as efficiently as possible. Also, our senses fool us all the time.

A human is not any "further" evolved than a bacteria, there is no final frontier with nature, just optimization for survival and reproduction +expansion.

Low barrier of entry = most coaches are useless

Probably has a lot of potential in shadow work if used in the right type of environment

His conversation with Sam Harris in Sams Waking Up app recently was very interesting, it did go into a bit of a debate on if anything outside of consciousness exists though

We should also keep in mind that the human mind has a tendency to assign meaning to things. Sometimes times a "synchronicity" is just confirmation bias.

How to overcome the feeling that I can never truly transform? It feels like I can never actually change myself, I seem to always slip back to old patterns despite making massive changes in short time frames.

https://dnn.media/ Decentralized News Network Still a concept as there is no working platform yet but it's basically crowdsourced decentralized media hosted on the blockchain. Seems like a very yellow approach to building a news site

@NoSelfSelf Different things work for different people. I know there are other techniques like The Sedona method etc. Juliens method works for me quite well and extremely well for some people I know. You can find some videos on the release technique he teaches on youtube to get an idea, but it goes much deeper in the course. Also his death meditations can be very powerful

Surprisingly a book called "The Sex God method" is the best there is on this topic. Basically there are 4 things that are necessary for mindblowing sex. 1. Domination (or submission, to feed the polarity) 2. Emotion 3. Variance 4. Immersion

A lot of the stuff Julien is teaching is strongly stage green. He is inspired largely by David Hawkins and built his own technique around the Letting Go concept. If you're interested in diving deep into the idea of letting go, Julien really is a great teacher who you can learn a ton from if any part of you is below stage green.

Yes. Especially Juliens Trasformation Mastery program opened me up to a whole new level of self-development and gave me powerful experiences of what can be achieved with deep inner work. It is really great stuff for releasing emotional trauma that might be blocking you from self actualizing. People tend to dismiss Rsd because of their pickup past, but the stuff Julien is teaching nowadays is very powerful inner work.

It's a tough situation. Humanity is faced with a choice between their own personal shirt term gain and what's best for humanity as a whole. With the current system we have on earth (most people being below stage green) it seems impossible to stop climate change through any kind of individual choices in the short window of time that we have. All we can do is place demand on the market with our money for more sustainable products and hope that our stage orange societies get enough economic incentive to produce technology that can somehow slow down climate change.

There are shadow aspects to both the masculine and the feminine. Just because some shadow aspects of the feminine (along with positive aspects) are surfacing, it doesn't mean that it is not exposing the shadow aspects of masculinity that have been running rampant for most of human history. That being said, the pendulum often tends to swing too far to the other side on these types of things, but over time it seems to stabilise closer and closer to truth.

Loneliness, lack of community.

I often see eyes on my trips, on a higher dose my whole visual field has been filled with eyes that are inside a fabric of infinitely small triangles that my visual field has been filled with. The "eyes" are more just symbols of an eye, it doesn't feel like there is something watching me or anything. If it feels like anything it's a mysterious ancient feeling, like those eyes from Egyptian hieroglyphs like someone said above me.

If the Earth is flat, how can the sun be visible here in Northern Europe at the same time that it's not visible in Australia? If it was flat, it would be visible on the whole surface at the same time, just in a different angle
