No one will be able to actually answer this IMO. There would be way too many shaky assumptions.

The bold text is all you need to know really. Make your spiritual practice strong, and you will find out in ways far deeper than our various bullshittings can tell you.

Nice. I think this was the one I considered getting before. You should check out the Lumenate app. Doing vipassana + Lumenate is the easiest way for me to reach ridiculous amounts of concentration pretty effortlessly. The app has a free version. It’s not a biofeedback thing though. It flashes your phone’s flashlight rapidly to produce quickly shifting visual sensations on your closed eyelids.

I don’t want to meditate as much as I feel that would be best for my goals as I’ve found other techniques which are easier.

If you feel quite confident you can handle your shit without a trip sitter, I’d say it’s okay. If you can get a trip sitter, that’s ideal though. Being in a bit of a negative headspace isn’t a reason to completely avoid tripping. A big reason I’m saying this might be okay is because you’re indicating you have years of meditation experience. That helps. I’ve had psychs pull me out of a number of depressions, so maybe you’ll see a similar result. Still, set positive intentions beforehand and try to do it on a good day compared to your current average. Make sure to meditate for some time before you take it or at the very least on the whole come up phase. Also this advice only flies if you’ve done some trips at that dose before and they were received well. Don’t do your highest dose ever in a bad headspace… Be extra careful with all the normal safety protocol. No high rise apartments with balconies, access to weapons, etc. You’d probably want to have at least one person know about your plans. Someone nearby would be best. A friend from back home who you could at least call if you get into difficult territory would be a close second.

Just a few minutes in. I’ll see if I can watch it tonight. Wanted to say that his initial descriptions of enlightenment are sounding genuine and align much with my experience.

I used to follow him when I was more stage green. It sounds like he was less conspiracy focused back then.

I’ll try to give it a shot.

Ideas about life being fake or not real are just a part of the story. Honestly it’s way more complex than that. If you had more pieces of the puzzle and some time to integrate them, you’d see that it’s ultimately not something to fear. There’s way more Love if you are able to go deep enough. Don’t push yourself too hard though. Being in a good mindset and proper setting while setting clear and positive intentions will likely reduce the chance you run into as much resistance if you choose to try more psychedelics.

You’ll project less when you’re more present to the moment from my experience. Going with the flow is likely going to be helpful. Twin flames are crazy powerful for growth. I wish I could be with mine, but it’s impractical for now

Very detailed! Give yourself time to contemplate and integrate all of this. You are quite sensitive to psychedelics, so keep that in mind whenever trying something new. What exactly is first order reality and second order reality? Where can I read more about this? I’m not sure what Leo means, but it sounds like first order is the “actual” or what is here in this second. Second order might be imagination of past or future, but to me that still occurs fully within the first order. Ultimately they are not separate in higher conscious states in my experience if that’s what he’s referring to. Does Leo have a video on context? Other than recontextualization? I think that’s the only one which focuses directly on context. When I talked about "Raw reality", What was that? It’s hard to say. To me it sounds like viewing things without your normal conceptual lenses or just completely new ones which change the feel.

I think you misinterpreted my last sentence. I was saying: I am already happy and present, so why would I spend my mental faculties focusing on this?

My sister called me a psychopath once, but she said it wasn’t a bad thing to be one as she knows plenty of successful psychopaths… lol

Sounds like some good progress. All of these facets of awakening will probably go much deeper as you continue to move forward as long as you stick with spiritual work. What other practices are you doing beyond psychedelics?

Binaural beats are a great tool. You can check out light language too. It really helps open up spiritual energies which could be a bit tied up or inactive in my experience.

Is Lucifer Satan in your eyes?

Is micro-managing my muscles at all times a bit neurotic? It seems a bit neurotic. Why can’t I just be present and happy as I already am?

Amazing ??

I’ll answer with some questions. Can you get yourself to experience ten different more or less infinite information hubs of experience in your awareness simultaneously? Is that an “Awakening” or not one? How can you know whether it is an “Awakening” or not without experiencing it? My opinion is that it is nearly impossible, maybe just flat out impossible, to reach anything in that territory with just self inquiry, but that’s just an assumption based on doing this stuff using many different methods and a respectable amount of research for 8 years. Btw, if you’re interested, I’d be happy to talk about a good number of methods you can try if you want to. Shoot me a PM if you want.

That’s some amazing ability to be able to record such small things happening.

Nice writing. There are some good pointers and things to consider here.

How does this relate to Absolute Love from your perspective?

I met my meditation teacher through the Heartfulness tradition. It’s rather popular in the U.S. at least, probably Canada as well. The whole idea of the practice is to meditate on the heart chakra with the meditation facilitator giving transmission from the gurus of the tradition. It coincided with some big shifts for me in relation to kundalini/chakras and overall spiritual development. Some of their materials have been the most detailed descriptions of how chakras relate directly to Liberation I’ve found. My meditation teacher is the most knowledgeable and experienced person I was able to find in my area. I live in a small town of 40,000 people, so it was nice to have such a resource and tradition so accessible.

Nice share. Thanks.

It’s different for everyone. Definitely try it. I’ve spent much of this past year high, and it’s been one thing that greatly revolutionized my spirituality. It’s such a low risk that it’s kind of ridiculous to not expose oneself to it at least a once.
